Chapter 772 - 768: Let’s Have a Good Talk
"Coward."
Mrs. Sun cursed. When she turned her gaze to Gu Jiaojiao, her earlier fear was gone.
She had already figured it out. If Leng Yuan really dared to make a move, she would extort him.
Besides, Leng Yuan and Gu Jiaojiao were so capable; it wouldn’t be so bad to leech off them and live the good life.
A calculating glint flashed through Mrs. Sun’s eyes.
Gu Jiaojiao saw this, and the smile on her face grew even more brilliant.
’I just love it when they’re feisty.’
"Auntie Sun, don’t you worry. I won’t believe what other people say. I believe you’re a reasonable person."
Gu Jiaojiao turned to look at Leng Yuan. "Brother Yuan, the Sun family is *so* reasonable. A moment ago, Sun Yeshu charged at me, so I dodged and slapped her. The Sun family immediately retaliated by having two burly men beat me. It was a real back-and-forth, and they were even polite enough to warn me first. So when you beat them up in a moment, you need to be reasonable too. Don’t hit them too hard."
After speaking, she gave a polite look toward the Divine Wood.
"Auntie Sun, I’ll begin now."
With that, she flashed a brilliant smile at Leng Yuan.
Without a word, Leng Yuan walked up to Mrs. Sun’s two sons, raised his hands, and started fighting them.
The two of them had no chance to fight back. Leng Yuan truly lived up to his reputation for being naturally strong. One punch brought them to tears, and a second had them questioning their very existence.
Leng Yuan landed a few punches and a few kicks on each of them, and they collapsed to the ground, unable to get back up.
By the time Mrs. Sun reacted, the fight was already over.
Mrs. Sun was furious. "You... you dare hit my sons! I..."
Mrs. Sun was filled with hatred. She stared at Leng Yuan, wishing she could rush forward and scratch up his face, but when she met his death-like eyes, she immediately lost her nerve.
Not daring to speak to Leng Yuan, Mrs. Sun turned on Gu Jiaojiao instead.
"Gu Jiaojiao, you dared to make a move! Everyone saw it! Your man just beat my sons like this. This isn’t over!"
Gu Jiaojiao sneered. "You’re right, it’s not over. Your daughter ran back to her family to shirk her work, and then she tried to frame me, claiming I was the reason, which ruined my reputation. When the Six-Eared Macaque ruined Sun Wukong’s reputation, Sun Wukong killed him with a single blow of his staff. My reputation might not be as grand as the Monkey King’s, but it’s not something just anyone can slander."
"I don’t want anything else. I see you have two fine-looking chickens in your yard. I’ll take them home to supplement my diet as compensation for the damage to my reputation."
As soon as Gu Jiaojiao finished speaking, Leng Yuan took action. He strode into the yard without a word, snatched one chicken in each hand, and then with a twist of their necks, both birds were dead.
Mrs. Sun’s eyes nearly popped out of her head.
"You goddamn murderer! You killed my chickens! I’ll fight you to the death!"
Gu Jiaojiao wasn’t having any of it.
When Mrs. Sun charged over, Jiaojiao met her with several hard slaps across the face, followed by a kick.
Mrs. Sun was kicked straight to the ground. Not only did she land face-first in the dirt, but her whole face was covered in it.
"You... you..."
Mrs. Sun was trembling with rage, unable to utter a single word.
Gu Jiaojiao strode forward and grabbed the woman’s hair.
"What about me? Am I not being reasonable with you right now? Now that I’ve beaten you to this state, do you need compensation?"
"Compensation?"
At the mention of compensation, Mrs. Sun’s eyes lit up.
’She’d been beaten by Gu Jiaojiao. Such a perfect opportunity had fallen right into her lap, and she had to seize it. This was a golden chance to extort Gu Jiaojiao.’
"Compensate! You must compensate me!"
Gu Jiaojiao nodded. "Don’t worry, I’m not an unreasonable person. I will certainly compensate you. In fact, I’ll pay whatever you ask. How much do you want?"
