Gu'er counted to three, and Sun Jiaming and Li Zhi raised their fists.
Lin Shuying cried out Gu'er's name nervously. She knew Gu'er was kind and very good to her family and relatives, but Gu'er was also ruthless when dealing with wicked people. She had driven her own maternal aunt's family away and was even said to have attacked someone with a knife. 'What about a person like Chang Juhua, who isn't even related to Gu'er? Will Gu'er really do it?'
"Gu'er, this… this…"
Lin Shuying didn't know what to say. Gu'er was doing this to help her, so she couldn't undermine her efforts. But she was a mother; she couldn't just stand by and watch a little life be extinguished like that. She wanted to persuade Gu'er to stop but couldn't bring herself to say the words. Yet if she didn't, and Gu'er actually went through with it, she felt she would be committing a terrible sin.
"Auntie, stay out of this."
