Chapter 727: Chapter 728: I… Killed Nangong Feifei
Gu Qiangwei didn’t answer, but saw the pain in Nangong He’s eyes.
“Grandpa.”
That neither too light nor too heavy “Grandpa” made Nangong He realize something. He looked at her, didn’t speak, and just waited for her to continue.
After looking at him, Gu Qiangwei glanced at her father once more.
In this family, the only ones who really had emotions towards Nangong Feifei were Grandpa and father.
“I… killed Nangong Feifei.”
She didn’t want to hide this matter, lest they find out from someone else if she concealed it.
Upon hearing this sentence, Nangong He’s body, weathered through the years, visibly shook. And Nangong Mingchuan, naturally, changed his expression in disbelief.
But it seemed no one blamed Gu Qiangwei. In their hearts, they all clearly understood that between Feifei and Qiangwei, it was either her death or Qiangwei’s demise.
If Feifei had not died, she would have continued to scheme to kill Qiangwei, and judging by her wounds, it must have been in self-defense that she killed Feifei.
It’s false to say it wasn’t hard for him to lose his granddaughter.
Just having learned this news, Nangong He could hardly bear it, clutching his heart and suddenly staggering backward!
“Dad!” Tang Yuyan saw this and quickly supported him, sitting him down on the sofa.
Nangong He’s old tears flowed freely, but he said nothing.
If Feifei had not harbored so much jealousy and hatred, perhaps she wouldn’t have died today.
Nangong Mingchuan also hung his head, lifting a hand to pinch the corner of his eye, trying not to let tears flow.
“I know she was the person you loved the most, but I can’t consider her family. So between her and me, it wasn’t just her death or my survival. Blame me, scold me, I won’t have a single complaint. Even if you want my life in compensation for hers, you can have it.”
The last sentence made Nangong Mingchuan abruptly look up.
He had already lost one daughter, how could he bear to lose another.
Nangong He merely wiped the old tears from his eye corners, “Grandpa knows that as long as Feifei was alive, she would definitely find ways to harm you. I also know that all this was her own doing. Even if you hadn’t killed her, Qin Sijue wouldn’t have let her off.”
Upon hearing that they wanted his daughter to compensate with her life, Tang Yuyan was also shocked.
Inevitably, she argued fervently for her daughter, “Dad, Mingchuan, if Weiwei wanted to kill Feifei, she could have had any opportunity but she did not! If it weren’t for Feifei escaping again aiming to kill Weiwei, Weiwei wouldn’t have killed her just to protect herself and the baby! If you want Weiwei to pay with her life, then take mine first!”
Tang Yuyan spoke decisively, knowing in her heart that Nangong Feifei deserved her fate, repeatedly plotting Weiwei’s death. If not for her and Qin Si both being fortunate, it might have been Weiwei and Qin Si who had died!
Then, listening to the adults’ conversation, the little guy, Nangong Xi, couldn’t help but look up, “I don’t want Mommy and sister to die. If Mommy has to pay with her life, then I will too!”
All eyes then turned to Nangong Xi.
He didn’t know what paying with one’s life meant, but he understood the meaning of ‘death’ and ‘kill’.
“Mom.” Gu Qiangwei looked up, her heart aching as she looked at her mother.
Tang Yuyan turned her eyes away, “Mom abandoned you for twelve years. I’ve said I’d never let anyone bully you again — if we must die, the three of us will die together!”
“Yuyan!”
Nangong Mingchuan glanced at his wife, reminding her that no one had suggested Weiwei should pay with her life.
