The Wife I Picked Up Is Too Fierce

Chapter 209 - Begging for Mercy

Chapter 209: Begging for Mercy

Gu Jingtong sat on the ground and looked at Old Madam Gu in the crowd. Her eyes were filled with a pleading look, but what confused her was that Old Madam Gu only shook her head gently, indicating that she was helpless too. It was not that she did not want to save Gu Jingtong, but the entire Gu family did not dare to disobey the King of the Capital, Xie Jiuhan.

Feng Qing closed one eye and peered for a long time. “Let’s shoot here!” She pulled the trigger with her index finger. The bullet flew out of the chamber and went straight for Gu Jingtong. The ear-piercing gunshot made everyone tremble.

The bullet pierced into Gu Jingtong’s other leg and left a trail of blood. Gu Jingtong was stunned for half a second before she screamed like a pig being slaughtered!

Xie Jiuhan covered Feng Qing’s ears, afraid that Gu Jingtong’s scream would hurt Feng Qing’s eardrums. Feng Qing gently blew on the gun and said coldly, “Miss Gu, am I equal to you now?”

Beads of cold sweat rolled down Gu Jingtong’s face. The excruciating pain almost made her faint. Blood dripped onto the ground and it looked scary.

“Madam… Madam Xie, I’m sorry. Please… please forgive me!” Finally, Gu Jingtong begged for mercy. Her tears, mucus, and sweat mixed with blood completely withered the beautiful face she was proud of.

“Oh, Miss Gu is a high-class person and the daughter of the Gu family. How can you beg for mercy from a low-class person like me?” Feng Qing sneered. “Besides, I’ve already shot you, isn’t it a little too late for you to beg for mercy now?”

Gu Jingtong endured the pain in her legs and crawled towards Feng Qing. She said with a look of regret, “Madam Xie, please be magnanimous and forgive the wrongdoing of a lowly person and spare my life. I didn’t know that you were Madam Xie. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to look for trouble with you even if I had ten thousand guts. Please let me go this time on account of my brother and Young Master Xie. As long as you are willing to let me go, when my leg is cured, I’m willing to fulfill the bet and be a stepping stone for you for a day. No, I’ll be a stepping stone for you for your entire life as long as you’re happy!”

With that, Gu Jingtong supported herself with both hands on the ground. She did not know where she got the strength from, but her head was hitting the ground. Dignity? Shame? It was not worth it in front of life and death.

That shot just now had completely awakened her and shattered the last shred of fantasy in her heart. She finally realized that if she didn’t beg for mercy and yield, Feng Qing would definitely shoot her without any hesitation. No one would stand up for her.

Seeing that she was incessantly kowtowing, Feng Qing said in an indifferent tone, “Do you know regret now? Do you know what you are? As the eldest daughter of the Gu family, you’re pampered and spoiled. However, that’s only in the Gu family. No one outside of the Gu family will be pampering you. With the Gu family’s power, you’re willful, arrogant, and domineering. In order to win the competition, you abused the little white horse and even used a whip to attack me sneakily. In your eyes, other people’s lives are so cheap. You always think that you’re from the upper-class and superior. But your actions are all embarrassing to upper-class society and defaming the Gu family. You’ve lost your sense of shame but we have not. Therefore, the one who should get lost from the upper-class circle the most is not anyone else, but a trash like you who has no upbringing. The entire upper-class society is ashamed of you!”

With that, Feng Qing raised her gun. Gu Jingtong was extremely afraid when she looked at the black muzzle. Her legs were crippled now, and she couldn’t escape even if she wanted to. She had no chance of survival.

“Madam Xie, I beg you. Please do me a favor and let me off this time. I will remember everything you said. I will definitely turn over a new leaf and be a human again. Please give me another chance.” Gu Jingtong begged with snot and tears.

Crack! The sound of a bullet being loaded rang out and Gu Jingtong couldn’t help but tremble. Looking at Feng Qing’s cold expression, she knew that she was going to die here.

Despair, complete despair. This was the first time in her life that she had fallen into a hopeless situation, and it was also the first time that she was so close to death. The strong sense of suffocation made her eyes turn black. Gu Jingtong tried her best to open her eyes, wanting to see the bright sunlight again because she knew very well that the next gunshot would be the time she bid farewell to this world.

No one could save her, and no one dared to come out to save her. Who asked her to offend the Madam of the Xie family? The prestige of the Capital’s First Madam could not be violated by anyone! Thinking about what she had done to Feng Qing previously, it was simply laughable!

Feng Qing walked up to Gu Jingtong and pressed the cold gun against her forehead. The air froze and time stopped. Everyone held their breaths. Many rich ladies turned pale. They were the people who had mocked Feng Qing just now. They were not sure if she would point the gun at them after dealing with Gu Jingtong.
