Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 1247: Heavenly punishment



Madam Mei did not even finish her oath when lighting clapped in the clear sky but that wasn't the end. The thunder that zapped past the sky then aimed at Madam Mei and struck her hard.

If not for the fact that Gu Mu pulled Madam Mei behind her, Mei Shu would have surely died then and there.

The crowd of onlookers sucked in a breath. The heavens really listened! They all looked down at the charred black spot on the road that was still fuming and then looked at Mei Shu whose face was paler than the moon.

"Oh My God! The heavens really punished Madam Mei! Doesn't this mean that she was lying? She actually harmed those poor souls and lied to their family that they ran away!?"

"This is insane. How many servers and waiters went missing again? Wasn't the number more than fifty?"

"You are concerned about the number? I am wondering what happened to the ones who vanished. Since they did not appear even once, doesn't this mean that they all…" The woman who finished speaking trailed off, she did not say anything nor did she make a claim but everyone understood what she was trying to say.

The eyes of the people in the crowd widened, that was right! If the servers did not run away and that Mei Shu was lying, then where did they go? Doesn't this mean that they were dead?

"You can swear once again, Miss Mei," Yu Dong spoke up. She did not say that the woman in front of her was indeed the culprit instead she caught the noses of the people in the crowd and then pulled them along as she wanted.

Mei Shu's heart was beating harshly, she did not believe that it was the heavens punishing her. Most probably this was a coincidence, right a coincidence. After all, the weather was a bit weird these days, surely this was just a coincidence!

"Sure why not! I think this is just a mere coincidence and nothing more," Mei Shu said while ignoring her thumping heart. She then looked at Yu Dong and then swore once more, "I swear that I have done nothing——"

Boom.

Crack.

The lightning bolt struck the ground where Mei Shu was standing again causing the latter to jump back and slide on the ground. This time around she no longer looked arrogant and confident. One time could be a coincidence but once again? How was it possible? The thunderbolt also aimed at her and no one else!

"A third time then?" Yu Dong offered her a small smile as she looked at the woman in front of her. Mei Shu was trembling and there was a wet patch on her pants but she did not care about it as she was too busy trying to recollect her lost sanity.

"Third time is always a charm, you can swear again," Xiao Hua spoke to the woman on the ground with his chin raised as proud as a peacock.

Mei Shu however did not swear anymore, in fact, she acted as if she could not listen to anything. Yu Dong let her off, she was not going to push this woman to a dead end so soon.

She then turned to look at Gu Mu who was shivering pathetically. She said, "It is your turn, swear that you never harmed the mer servers and you were not the one who threw oil on Zi Zan, don't worry the heavens have eyes, they will not punish the ones who are innocent. Alright?"

Gu Mu however did not want to swear after all she knew better than anyone else that she was indeed in the wrong and if she was innocent then every thug and thief in this town was innocent as well.

"What's wrong? You don't want to swear? Is it because you were indeed the one who harmed the mer servers and Zi Zan? Is this a confession?" Yu Dong pressed Gu Mu who then started to quake.

She looked left and right like a street rat while trying to escape from this situation. If not for the fact that the restaurant was surrounded by the crowd, she surely would have made a run for it.

Something Yu Dong knew and thus she asked Ye Zexian to collect a crowd in front of the Mei restaurant.

Gu Ke Jin looked at her sister and shook her head. If her sister had agreed to admit her guilt before then Gu Ke Jin was sure that Yu Dong would have given her leeway, she would have not even dragged the matter of the poor souls who were killed by Gu Mu and Mei Shu.

But these two foolish women did not want to listen to her and did their own thing. Now it was good, both of them would be sent to the yamen for a very long time.

She glanced at the Marquis and the Magistrate who was looking at Gu Mu with a frown and sighed. The Gu family's reputation was going to be ruined by her sister this time around.

Everyone would know that they have raised a murderer.

She wished she could put Gu Mu back in her father's womb and make him give birth once again, but this was not something that she could do!

Gu Mu also felt like she was cornered in a way from which she could not escape, she turned to look at Gu Ke Jin for help but the latter just shook her head. She was not going to help her.

'I….I don't want to go to the Yamen,' in the past, Gu Mu had acted like a tyrant because she knew that no one would be able to touch her. She had bullied the weak and feared the strong but she never knew that she would get into trouble like this!

If she did then she would have restrained herself a little.

With no option in sight, Gu Mu who was panicking felt her vision darken as she fainted on the road.
