The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law
Chapter 310: The Pursuit

Chapter 310: Chapter 310: The Pursuit

Gu Youyou remembered what Gu Feng had said before, he mentioned their parent’s death was suspicious, and told her that if there was a chance to uncover the truth, she should execute the vengeance with her own hands.

She had always assumed that the nemesis was the State Preceptor they had never met, but unexpectedly it was her Third Uncle, Gu Wu.

The biological son of their grandfather!

If grandfather knew that the enemy he had been grieving over for more than a decade was actually his other son, who knows what he would have felt.

No, she couldn’t let grandfather find out, his health was poor, he wouldn’t be able to bear it.

Gu Youyou’s heart was filled with mixed emotions, even though she had never met those parents and felt no affection for them, perhaps it was due to the body she was in, tears unknowingly streamed down her face.

Maybe it wasn’t her crying, but this body, it was the young Gu Youyou shedding tears.

This was the Third Uncle who just yesterday said that the death of one family member meant one less to cherish. Sure enough, family members indeed decreased upon death because he was making full use of it.

A beast without humanity.

"This man is still useful," the leader of the men said.

Another complained, "What use is he? He couldn’t even handle the well-set continuous ruse; how could he be of any use? I think that second brother Gu is more useful, at least he managed to deliver the person."

A sharp light flashed in the eyes of the leader, who said, "This is the senior brother’s command, do you want to defy it?"

Upon hearing this, the one clamoring to kill Third Brother Gu fell silent, frustrated, he kicked Gu Wu once more.

One of them crouched down and glanced at the footprint on Gu Wu’s body.

It was a kick from Gu Youyou, it had rained last night in the mountains, and the muddy footprint she left on Gu Wu was evident.

That person was startled, then delighted, hurriedly informed the others, "She hasn’t gone far, these footprints are fresh."

Upon hearing this, the others looked and also noticed the problem.

Gu Youyou, who rarely came into contact with mud, hadn’t thought about these issues, and from her hiding spot, she listened to their conversation, fuming with anger.

A good opportunity was about to be lost because of last night’s rain and those muddy footprints.

"Quick, look for the footprints and follow!"

They were all professionally trained and quickly picked up on the footprints Gu Youyou had left behind.

"Over here!"

Knowing it was useless to hide any longer, Gu Youyou hurriedly ran down the mountain before they closed in.

Before long, the men caught sight of Gu Youyou, and the leader laughed, "That’s the woman, chase her."

Gu Youyou, a weak woman, couldn’t outrun these men whose feet were swift as the wind; it was only a matter of time before they caught up, but Gu Youyou still ran. If she could make it to the official road at the bottom of the mountain and find people, it would be easier to deal with the situation.

Without guessing, Gu Youyou knew who was pursuing her; they were not ordinary villagers. They moved swiftly with Qinggong, just like Jin Zijin and his kind. Only someone like Zhuo Qing would go through such great lengths to deal with her, this was indeed a ruse to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

A successive ruse, truly a cunning strategy. First, they lured her second uncle into selling her for money, then sent the third uncle to abduct her.

Later, they could easily shrug off her disappearance onto the human trafficker, and Jin Zijin would be unable to deal with them.

As for the human trafficker, they had lost their human cargo long ago. They never had her, so Jin Zijin couldn’t find her through them either.

In any case, without evidence, the two brothers from the Gu Family could just keep passing the blame between each other, walking away clean.

Gu Youyou sneered coldly, fortunate for them they didn’t kill Third Brother Gu. Dying like that would have been too easy for a man so devoid of conscience.

"Still running? Break her legs," someone shouted angrily.
