A bland statement.
An undisguised threat.
Ke Qing's face showed a hint of change.
Fu Chi stood up, stroked his ring, and spoke softly, "You don't have to explain. I will eventually take the position in the Fu Family, my mother will eventually be moved back and buried with my father, wasn't that why you tried to tarnish her reputation?"
"Now that you are here, I need to take some reprisal for the people who are left outside, don't I?"
Ke Qing clenched her fist.
Her body was trembling.
Her bloodless lips stared at Fu Chi.
She couldn't utter a word.
Fu Chi apparently had no intention of further arguing with her.
He stood up.
"Think it through in a day at most. You have to atone for your wrongs in the latter half of your life because the evil you did will eventually come back to you." His thin lips curled, as he looked down at the woman, "My father detested evil all his life, yet you committed deeds he hated the most all your life, don't die so soon to pollute his vision."
