Chapter 948 - 947: War of Words
They’ve already been causing a scene for a while, and now they want to clear their names by force. Isn’t it a little too late for that?Gu Tong’s red lips moved slightly as she said, "Just as the old lady of the Zhao Family said, this is my first time attending a Zhao Family banquet, and it’s my first time meeting the young master of the Zhao Family! Who would have thought that the Zhao young master would be so enthusiastic, declaring his feelings to me, someone he’s meeting for the first time? Earlier, I was completely confused, caught off guard, and didn’t know what to say!
Earlier, the Zhao old lady asked for my opinion, and I answered truthfully—with a blank mind and no thoughts! Haha, if no one had asked me, I’d have thought it was some improvisational performance."
The old lady of the Zhao Family: "..."
Zhao Xiangyun: "..."
Zhao Siyu: "..."
Guests: "..."
Whoa, she’s really forcefully clearing her name...
And, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with what she said.
You can’t even find a point of attack.
However, they didn’t know that Gu Tong makes a living with her mouth when she’s out and about.
In the battle of words, she’s second to none, and no one dares to claim the first spot.
Is it really that difficult?
"You’re talking nonsense! How can it have nothing to do with you?" Qiao Sisi jumped out, accusing with tears in her eyes, "If it weren’t for you seducing Siyu, how could he treat me this way, how could he argue with his family! This is all your fault."
Crying to the point of breaking, Qiao Sisi took every opportunity to speak, adding, "Who knows what kind of seductive tricks you have that can make Siyu, who met you just today, so captivated? I really can’t figure out what’s so good about you."
Qiao Sisi was heartbroken and her tears were real.
Every word she said erased the meaning of Gu Tong’s defense.
The Zhao Family was quite amused by the situation because, sometimes, there are things they shouldn’t say and have to rely on outsiders to voice them.
With a cold smile hanging on the corner of her lips, Gu Tong said calmly, "If we put it that way, Miss Qiao and Young Master Zhao had a great relationship initially, and I’m the one who ruined it?"
One accusation of seduction after another of being a temptress.
Even a figure made of clay has a bit of spirit.
Gu Tong was done being patient!
Qiao Sisi cried like rain, accusing through her sobs, "I’ve liked Siyu for so many years, chasing after him as a child, going to his school as we grew up, and studying management abroad, all hoping to help him. The Zhao Family had already agreed to our marriage, and if it weren’t for you, we would be engaged today...
I even took a cooking class for Siyu, hoping to cook for him in the future. You barged in and ruined our engagement. If it’s not you seducing him, then who is it? Boohoohoo..."
Qiao Sisi was truly heartbroken—losing face and the person she liked. If she could still endure this, she’d be too strong.
Zhao Siyu was dissatisfied and said, "Are you crazy? Who asked you to do any of that? You brought this on yourself! I don’t even like you!"
Qiao Sisi cried her heart out, sobbing, "But I like you! I’m willing..."
A lovesick woman, waiting bitterly...
It made people’s hearts naturally lean towards the weaker party.
"This Miss Qiao is really infatuated. Alas, having her marriage ruined out of the blue must be extremely painful..."
"You could say the Li Family’s wife has some real tricks, making the Demon Lord of Mayhem fall head over heels, even directly denying the engagement, yet being so heartless to Miss Qiao."
"You’d also think the Eldest Young Master of the Li Family could bear it, but he must be seeing green by now."
The things they were saying got nastier, all sorts of words were being exchanged.
The group sowing discord played a massive facilitating role, just as Chu Xiran had calculated.
Gu Tong was being slandered, getting mud slung all over her!
Chu Xiran wanted to completely ruin Gu Tong’s reputation, and this was only the first step!
