Chapter 613: Phantom Twin Thieves

Regarding the people who kidnapped her son, Feng Tianlan naturally didn’t want to let them off lightly and insisted on going with her.

Gu Xiaonan and Feng Yuanxi also wanted to go.

In the end, the whole family arrived in the front yard’s hall.

By the time they arrived, the captives had already been brought in.

When the scar-faced man saw Gu Xiaonan walk in, his eyes lit up, and he immediately burst into tears, pleading, “Young Master, 1 know 1 was wrong. Please give me the antidote.”

Calling him the scar-faced man was no longer appropriate; his entire face was covered in a rash, scratched open, oozing pus, and covered in scratch marks, making it look like a maze of scars, and his scar was completely indistinguishable.

Standing beside him, the tall and thin man was in slightly better condition, but his face was also a gruesome sight to behold.

Beside them stood Gu Qin’er.

When she met Gu Qingluan’s gaze, her body couldn’t help but tremble, and her teeth chattered slightly. “Big… big sister, I’m sorry… I was forced…”

With a thud, she knelt in front of Gu Qingluan.

The hall suddenly became lively.

Feng Tianlan was annoyed by the commotion and frowned, causing a heavy atmosphere to pervade the room.

Finally, the group noticed his presence and involuntarily fell silent.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

There was a rhythmic tapping sound.

Gu Qingluan tapped the table with her curved fingers, her gaze shifting between the three of them.

The scar-faced man and the tall, thin man twitched their fingers, fighting the urge to scratch their bodies, but they were struggling to control themselves.

The more they scratched, the more rashes appeared, and the more itchy and painful it became.

Gu Qingluan realized why they had voluntarily turned themselves in.

The poison Gu Xiaonan used on these two was called “Heart Itch.”

It wasn’t the pain of having one’s heart dug out but an itch that reached the depths of the heart.

Some people had strong willpower and could endure the pain.

But itching was even harder to bear than pain.

And the “Heart Itch Powder” not only caused a red rash and unbearable itching but would also be fatal if not cured within three days.

People afflicted with this poison couldn’t even wait for three days. In the absence of an antidote, they would choose to end their lives to relieve the suffering.

These two must have felt desperate and had no other choice by the time they came today.

Gu Qingluan snorted softly, “You have quite the nerve to steal my son, yet you dare come to my place. Aren’t you afraid of death?”

“Big sister, I didn’t want to. They used my life to threaten me. If I didn’t comply, I would die. 1 originally wanted to tell you directly, but 1 couldn’t see you. By the way, I wrote a letter for a servant to deliver to you. Did you receive it?” Gu Qin’er explained anxiously, her eyes welling up with tears.

Yesterday, she soaked herself in the lake, and after a day of turmoil, she looked far from presentable. She tried to act pitifully, but it didn’t have any effect on anyone.

The scar-faced man immediately interjected, “You stinky brat, don’t blame everything on us. It was your suggestion to deceive Young Master Xiaonan into the backyard! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have thought of this method. Don’t throw the blame on us!”

He turned to Gu Qingluan’s group, surveyed them, and concluded that Gu Qingluan should be the one in charge. He then said to her, “I have a report! Madam, this girl has a great deal of animosity towards you. She voluntarily suggested cooperating with us. Don’t be deceived by her!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Qin’er glared at him indignantly and retorted, “It was just a makeshift plan! Without me, you would have thought of other ways to capture someone. 1 was just stalling for time!”

The scar-faced man sneered. “Stalling for time? Why didn’t you just tell them directly? You knew someone was going to kidnap Young Master Xiaonan, but you still cooperated with us to lure him into the backyard. Do you dare to say you didn’t have ulterior motives?”

Gu Qiner immediately argued back, “I was poisoned by you and had no choice! Plus, I’ve already written a letter to my big sister. As soon as she reads it, she will come to rescue us.”

“Quit acting!”

“Both of you, be quiet!”

A stern command interrupted their argument.

Gu Qingluan cast a cold gaze over the three of them.

Then, her gaze settled on the scar-faced man and the tall, thin man.

“Have you thought about how you want to die?”
