Mu Feng had anticipated the reactions of this mother and son from the very beginning.
The playful expression on his face became even more apparent. "Actually, I can also tell you that I've been playing you all along."
"However, I certainly won't let you die now. This so-called Zhang family of Lingnan forgets its lessons once the beating stops."
"I can tell you what happened with the Zhang family of Lingnan two years ago."
"But I think it would be more convincing if I let your family members say it themselves when they arrive. It seems like your second uncle is coming, right?"
"He was also a firsthand witness to the events of two years ago, so it's better to let him tell you."
"As for now!"
Before he could finish his sentence, the words caused Madam Du's face to turn as pale as paper.
Madam Du kept backing away, her eyes filled with extreme fear.
Her voice trembled uncontrollably, completely devoid of her previous arrogance.
"Mu Feng, you don't need to put on a show for me. We had no prior enmity. If you treat me harshly, the people of our Zhang family will absolutely not let you off easily."
"Since you've just healed my son, it proves you are afraid of our experts."
"There's no need to put yourself in an irreversible situation over such a trivial dispute."
She truly knew fear now. Her impulsive words of comfort would undoubtedly bring her immense trouble.
It might even lead to her death.
Du Chao was even more pathetic. He had already fallen to the ground and was so scared he had urinated his pants.
His gaze was fixed on Mu Feng, his entire body trembling uncontrollably.
Mu Feng said with a half-smile, "Your so-called second uncle is in this city. If he dares to come, he will be here very soon."
"I noticed him when he arrived here. He also has a purpose for coming here, to settle the matters and conflicts of the past."
"Originally, I intended to give him a chance, but your so-called new family head clearly forgets his lessons once the beating stops, still acting the same as back then."
After he finished speaking, his voice became even colder. "Since you're already here, don't hide any longer."
Several people instinctively looked towards the door.
At this moment, an elder in his sixties, with a pale face, walked into the ward.
His eyes were filled with immense rage, but it was all directed at Madam Du and Du Chao.
Without any hesitation, he directly knelt before Mu Feng with a thud. "Mr. Mu, our family head must have been misled by these two fools."
"Our family lost its sharp edge long ago. That was a period of keeping a low profile, and we strictly disciplined our subordinates, ensuring they never did anything excessive."
"Previously, our family must have thought someone wanted to take advantage of us, the Zhang family."
Before he could finish, Mu Feng coldly interrupted, "I want to step on the faces of your Zhang family."
"Are you not convinced?"
Upon hearing this, the elder quickly shook his head without hesitation. "We are convinced!"
"Even if our family head were here, he would undoubtedly kneel down and apologize to you, admitting his mistakes."
"Furthermore, we came here specifically to clarify the matters of the past with you. We truly did not intend to harm Feiying; we were implicated and deceived."
Mu Feng sneered, "Back then, you were fooled into being the vanguard. I gave you a chance to choose a new family head, but mistakes must be paid for."
"Your price was the former family head committing suicide at the doorstep."
"Now you tell me you were deceived again. So, tell me, what price will you pay next?"
Hearing this, the elder's face instantly turned paler, and his eyes were filled with deep helplessness.
"Mr. Mu, please contact our family head immediately and clarify these matters."
"No matter what your orders are, we will execute them unconditionally."
As he said this, he took out his phone and, without hiding it from Mu Feng, began to make a call.
The scene before them completely stunned Madam Du.
She never imagined that the person who caused the Zhang family's great upheaval two years ago was actually Mu Feng.
Moreover, she had heard about that incident. The entire Zhang family was almost wiped out. If it weren't for her father taking all the blame and sacrificing himself to that expert, the entire Zhang family might have ceased to exist.
Now, only two years had passed, and she had encountered Mu Feng again, even saying those excessive words.
"Mu Feng, I'm sorry. This is all our fault."
"Thank you for giving us another chance. We promise to stay as far away as possible from today onwards and never appear before you again."
"Regardless, Jiaojiao has that kind of relationship with you. Although Jiaojiao is not my biological daughter, I've raised her for so many years and have always treated her as my own daughter. Please, for Jiaojiao's sake, can you spare our lives!"
Madam Du had completely lost her arrogant and overbearing demeanor.
At this moment, her hair was disheveled, and she knelt on the ground, her eyes filled with extreme pleading.
Mu Feng ignored her, still standing calmly with a smile. He lit a cigarette. "You've all treated my words as mere wind."
"I already said you must die. Do you expect me to retract my words time and again?"
"I gave you chances, but you were useless."
"You have no idea how many chances you've had. You could have left here safely, and I wouldn't have done anything to you, but you chose to court death."
"Good advice cannot persuade a suicidal ghost, so you might as well prepare to embark on your journey!"
Madam Du opened her mouth to beg again, but the butler had already produced a dagger and, without hesitation, plunged it directly into his heart.
As he fell to the ground, his eyes still fixed on Madam Du, blood gushing from his mouth, he uttered a few broken words.
"The thing I regret most in this life is getting entangled with you…"
Madam Du's face turned pale, her lips trembling uncontrollably. Tears fell like broken pearls.
The fear of death had completely enveloped her.
"No, I don't want to die!"
"It was just a small matter. Mu Feng, you could have easily spared me. Why do you want to kill me?"
Madam Du stood up, unwilling to die like this. She immediately tried to run towards the door.
