Chapitre 65: Pitiful Tone

Upon recognizing that Gu Ming had fallen unconscious, Gu Dai, seized by a wave of annoyance, took a wet towel and began the process of removing the bloody smears and fingerprints from the fruit blade. Her frustration mounted with each stroke, and prompted her to slap him a few more times. 

Gu Ming had had the audacity to use such underhanded tactics against her in his pursuit of the Gu family's wealth, callously disregarding the memory of her father and the abundant kindness he'd extended towards Gu Ming during his life. 

Internally, Gu Dai questioned her approach. How could she simply allow Gu Ming to slip into unconsciousness while she sought revenge, devoid of any real suffering?

No, it was only right that his torment be doled out in agonizing, incremental steps. 

And so, Gu Dai hauled Gu Ming's unconscious body from the sack, took out a gleaming silver needle, and stimulated a few of his acupuncture points to wake him.
