Chapter 32: Fine, I'll Grant You!

Staring at her dangling hand, An Xiangrong was momentarily dumbfounded, then she firmly grabbed the hand. But no matter how loudly An Xiangrong called out, Aunt Qing on the bed did not stir.

"Aunt Qing..."

Tears fell from the corner of An Xiangrong's eyes as she held Aunt Qing's hand tightly.

Outside the room.

Hearing the crying from inside, Gu Mingyu's eyes betrayed some complexity as a pain pricked in his chest. Standing to one side, An Ling looked relieved, a hint of a gloating smile hiding behind her downturned eyelids.

The tightly shut door suddenly opened, and Mu Yan came out carrying An Xiangrong.

Looking at Gu Mingyu standing in the corridor, Mu Yan's face was filled with resentment. "Is this what you wanted to see? Don't you know how important Aunt Qing was to her?"

Of course, he knew that. That's why he spared Aunt Qing's life.

Watching Mu Yan's departing figure, Gu Mingyu spoke lightly, "Look into the cause of Aunt Qing's death."

"Yes."
