Grandmother felt that blood drained out of her face. She can’t imagine Su Xi knowing about the accident that happened so many years ago. Despite Gu Yan trying to investigate his parent’s death, she hasn’t thought that he can go to this depth.

“Umm? Mrs. Gu? Am I right? Or was it the fire that broke out suddenly after the accident that happened because of the brake failure? Who knows what happened, only the real killer might be aware.”

“Su Xi, don’t beat around the bush. I swear if I come out of this alive, I will make your living life a hell!” Hearing this, Su Xi laughed at the top of her lungs. Making her life a living hell? “You are in a grave situation and still you are thinking of making my life a living hell.. well that is quite interesting to hear out but I guess it won’t work, Mrs. Gu.”

Just then, Su Xi paid the bill of the restaurant, and taking her bag along with her, she made her way out of the place while she handled the phone near her ears.

“Alright, if you wish to save yourself, the foremost thing is to ask your driver to change the direction from the house and take you to the mountains. If you still remember there is a flat place on the top of the mountain ends, ask your driver to take you here now.”

She asked for a simple request and Grandmother Gu immediately asked her driver to turn the car around. While the driver was confused, he strictly obeyed what was told to him. After that, Grandmother Gu returned on the call.

“I have told him now… just defuse the bomb! See, I know you aren’t that bad a person. How can you think of killing me like this? I’m one of the elders of the family!” Emotional blackmailing was the only way she found easier. She knows Su Xi is a kind-hearted person and maybe, manipulating her might get worked.

Su Xi who just sat inside her car smiled at her words. “I’m really sorry but that won’t’ work for you now. If you really wish to get yourself free from everything, the only option for you is, to tell the truth. Tell me everything that you have committed.”

The color on Elder Madam Gu’s face was now totally gone. Her eyes turned cold and the aura around her dropped immensely. Clutching the phone tightly, she knew that it won’t be of any kind of use now.

“Lady, are you even knowing what you are talking about? What kind of sins have I committed?” There is no way she would admit to them. But the fear inside her heart might get better out of it. She was afraid of dying but is telling the truth the only option?!

Su Xi keeps her phone on the passenger seat and wears AirPods. With this, she runs her car into the same direction of that of the mountain when she spoke, “Just admits to what you have done till now and I will leave you. If you are thinking why am I asking you about it then reply is because I want to know how evil you really are.”

“Su Xi! don’t make me a-” her words were cut in the middle when Su Xi’s loving and sweet voice now turned dangerous to hear, “you are in deadly spit on still dare to threaten me? I won’t even think twice before clicking the button and a blast will happen. Do you want that?”

Su Xi was best at herself. she left no stone to make the lady afraid of whatever that she must have done till now.

At last, Madame Gu was bathing in the sweat. Her whole body was covered with the nervousness she felt at that moment. Admitting? Why? She can’t take any type of risk. She knows Su Xi doesn’t joke around like this and if she is saying that there is a bomb in her car, there must be something.

After a long consideration of whatever she has done in the past and analyzing the current situation in which she was stuck, Grandmother Gu finally asked her, “From where do you want me to start?”

Su Xi, who is currently driving the car, had a grin on her face. She can imagine how much courage grandmother Gu must have pulled out just to say that she can try out

“So, do you accept that it was you who was behind Gu Yan’s parents’ accident forty years ago? The truth would be heard and a lie… well you won’t be alive anymore if you lie.” In her question, there was a threat that came along to read the elder madam of the consequences of lying to her.

Taking a deep breath, she looked outside the window where they were riding out. “Yes, it was me who planned their murder and wanted to kill them. Are you happy to know?”

“This is the beginning of acceptance. How can it make me happy through something that I already know? So, why don’t you now tell me about your tensions in doing so?” Su Xi wasn’t going to leave madam like this. What was the fun of having her admit everything?

“It… it was all because I wanted my… son Gu Cheng to be the next heir and his children gain the power, not Gu Yan’s parents or his second uncle. I wanted my children not the first mistress children’s to have any kind of power.”

“So basically you misused the power of Elder Madam to throw everyone out of your lane so that you can capture whatever you wanted. Expected from someone like you.”

Grandmother Gu rolled her eyes. She knew that Su Xi is really trying to trigger her nerves. She is like a ticking bomb and there was no guarantee when Su Xi changed her mind. But the next question even stunned her more.

“Anyways, why don’t you just tell me the real truth as well, now that talks have been on your favorite son, Gu Cheng. Is he really the Gu family’s part? Because the reports say something else though.”
