Chapter 13: Even Crazier, Do You Want to See?

Cheng Yu's heart was bleeding, consumed by raging fury that devoured her last trace of rationality.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and her vicious gaze wished to flay and torment the girl, "Gu, Qing, Ning."

Gu Qingning lifted her eyelids, her voice carrying an indescribable coldness, neither light nor heavy, "Are you so easily angered?"

Having lost two beloved items, Cheng Yuxin wished she could kill her to vent her anger.

She turned her head to the guards and ordered, "What are you waiting for? Capture her for me."

"Yes."

Before they could approach, the girl sitting on the sofa moved.

A blur flashed before them, as fast as lightning.

The guards were stunned, gaping at the figure outside the French window.

Illusion.

It must be an illusion; no human could possess such speed.

The only calm person present was the butler.

He looked at the figure standing outside the window, his doubts growing.

Could it be that Miss Qingning had been pretending to be weak all along, concealing her true strength?

Even if a weak person becomes stronger, it's impossible to achieve such progress in just three days.

Meanwhile, Cheng Yu, infuriated by the empty jewelry box, was fuming with smoke coming out of her head.

She pushed aside the guards blocking her and her gaze fell upon the jewelry in Gu Qingning's hand, causing her to abruptly halt her steps.

Furious, she cursed, "Gu Qingning, have you gone mad?"

"Mad?"

Against the light, Gu Qingning slowly curled her lips, her gaze indifferent. "There are even crazier things. Do you want to see?"

As she finished speaking, she raised her hand, and the luxurious jewels shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight.

These jewels were meticulously cared for by Cheng Yu, and now they were being roughly held in Gu Qingning's hand, undoubtedly a blade tearing through her flesh.

Hysterically, Cheng Yu said, "Gu Qingning, if you dare to do this, I will never spare you today."

Gu Qingning glanced down; the gardener was trimming and fertilizing.

She withdrew her gaze, raised an eyebrow at Cheng Yu, her expression cold and insolent.

In the next moment, she loosened her grip, and the expensive jewels fell to the ground.

"No!"

Cheng Yu's eyes widened, and she rushed forward three steps in two strides.

She grabbed the railing with both hands, helplessly watching her jewels fall into the pile of stinky fertilizer.

She trembled with rage, almost choking on her own breath.

"Heh."

A muffled laughter echoed, sudden and wild.

Cheng Yu turned her head, glaring viciously at Gu Qingning. "Capture this wretched girl for me, dead or alive."

She had destroyed her jewels, yet she dared to laugh. Today, she would skin her alive.

The guards closed in on her from all sides, blocking the exit of the French window.

Gu Qingning, unfazed, smiled back, shocking everyone with her next move.

She grabbed the railing, and with a swift and decisive movement, she stepped onto it.

In a single leap, her actions were agile and precise.

The butler widened his eyes and took a step forward. "Miss Qingning..."

He had already informed third Young Master, and if anything happened to her, he wouldn't be able to explain it to him.

He looked down and saw the girl gracefully landing using the railing as support.

No injuries, no harm.

He let out a breath and wiped off his sweat.

Truly astonishing.

The others exchanged bewildered glances, completely overturning their previous impressions of Gu Qingning.

Although it was only the second floor, there was still some height involved. She had jumped from the second floor and remained unscathed.

Simply... amazing.

Gu Qingning leaned down and picked up the fallen hat, shaking off the grass debris. Sensing the gaze from above, she looked up and casually waved the hat at Cheng Yu. Her action was nonchalant, arrogant, and unrestrained.

Cheng Yu was infuriated to the point of spitting blood. She shouted at the guards, "Quick, go after her! Notify the guards at the entrance to close the gates tightly. Anyone who dares to let her out will not be spared."

"I understand."

The guards rushed out of the room in chaos, fearing that a bigger mess would ensue. The butler quickly followed them.

Once the pain subsided, Aunt Lin hobbled over to Cheng Yu.

She angrily said, "Madam, Gu Qingning is simply lawless. You absolutely cannot let her off lightly."

"You don't have to tell me. I will never let her go," Cheng Yu said with a fierce gleam in her eyes. "How did she suddenly start speaking?"

"I don't know either. She started speaking as soon as she came back. I was also puzzled," Aunt Lin replied. "In my opinion, maybe she was pretending all along. This might be her true nature."

"How did she open the safe?"

"When we arrived, she already had the jewelry box in her hands," Aunt Lin explained, lowering her head, afraid of being engulfed by Cheng Yuxin's anger.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuxin angrily stormed out of the room.

The scene shifted back to the courtyard, filled with cries of agony.

The guards were sprawled on the ground, their faces bruised.

Upon closer inspection, they only had minor injuries, nothing life-threatening.

Gu Qingning glanced at the remaining guards, her expression calm. "Step aside or get beaten. It's your choice."

The guards hesitated, silenced by the situation.

Whether they stepped aside or not, they would still face death.

Being a person is so difficult.

The butler stood motionless, not daring to move, trying to minimize his presence.

At this moment, Cheng Yu arrived, her face filled with anger upon seeing Gu Qingning gaining the upper hand. "You useless lot, you can't even capture a little girl with so many of you."

"Now, quickly apprehend her."

The guards wore expressions of resignation, about to make their move, when a loud roaring sound broke the deadlock.

The butler quickly turned his head and saw a blue sports car approaching from a distance, visibly relieved.

As if seeing a savior, he hurriedly ran towards it.

"Oh no, Madam, third Young Master is back," Aunt Lin recognized the car as belonging to Gu Zhao and whispered into Cheng Yu's ear.

Cheng Yu snorted coldly. "Even if Gu Qingning has caused such a big mess today, it won't matter who comes."

The one who made the mistake was Gu Qingning, not her. What was there for her to be afraid of? Gu Zhao wouldn't dare to unreasonably side with her.

The car door opened, and the butler immediately approached.

"Third Young Master, you've finally arrived."

Gu Zhao stepped out of the car and immediately saw the devastation in the courtyard. His black eyes revealed a hint of astonishment.

Had the house been burglarized?

"What's going on here?"

Gathering his words, the butler lowered his voice and said, "Miss Qingning had a dispute with Madam, and these people were all injured by Miss Qingning."

Gu Zhao frowned, "Are you saying that so many guards were injured by Qingning alone?"

He remembered that the information stated Qingning had no strength and was a delicate young girl.

The butler nodded, knowing he was skeptical, and pointed to the figure not far away. "Miss Qingning is right there. You can ask her yourself."

Following his line of sight, Gu Zhao looked at the tall and slender figure of the girl.

Clad in black, with a slightly askew baseball cap on her head, just by looking at her back, one could feel her unruly and proud nature.
