Chapter 952 - 951: Farce That Should Never Have Happened
Gu Tong left the banquet hall without hesitation.A farce that should never have happened finally came to an end.
However...
On the other side of the venue.
...
’Smack--’
Gong Qingwan’s slap caught Chu Xiran off guard, landing harshly on her face, leaving visible handprints.
Chu Xiran stood firm, taking the slap, her eyes full of grievance, saying, "Aunt, why..."
Gong Qingwan’s body trembled slightly, unable to contain her anger, she said, "Who told you to deal with her! Who allowed you to act on your own! Who gave you the right! Fool!"
Chu Xiran did well by using Chu Qiao’er to create chaos, causing public outrage.
It should have been undetectable, and no one would have thought it was the plot of a mastermind.
But...
It was still discovered...
Chu Xiran, bearing the handprint, dared not speak loudly, said, "Aunt, it was all Chu Qiao’er’s doing, not me, I didn’t act on my own, I didn’t..."
She was crying with tears, looking very aggrieved.
But in reality, she was pretending to be pitiful, hoping to gain Gong Qingwan’s sympathy.
Gong Qingwan was not a fool, saying, "Confused thing! At this point, you still want to deceive me! Do you think I’m blind?"
Chu Qiao’er indeed wanted to please Gong Qingwan, but unfortunately, she’s a silly girl without direction.
If it weren’t for Chu Xiran’s advice, she would never have dared to act rashly.
Gong Qingwan said, "Chu Xiran, don’t forget! Who raised you and taught you the ways of survival in a wealthy family! I raised a dog; it knows to wag its tail at me, and wouldn’t use me or plot against me!"
This time, Chu Xiran really touched Gong Qingwan’s bottom line.
Chu Xiran immediately panicked, her eyes turning red, saying, "Aunt, I’m sorry, I just wanted to use public opinion to destroy her, I didn’t mean to deceive you or make you angry..."
Gong Qingwan knew full well that Chu Xiran was merely embarrassed by Li Yan and wanted to take revenge through Gu Tong.
Back then, Gong Qingwan was well aware of Chu Xiran’s embarrassing situation and even fueled the flames, wanting to teach her a lesson.
However, who would have thought that Chu Xiran had not learned and had become even more unscrupulous.
Gong Qingwan glanced at her coldly, saying, "Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking!"
Today, they have arranged everything in advance to deal with Gu Tong.
At this critical moment, Chu Xiran made this scene, nearly ruining all the plans.
If it weren’t for Li Yan’s ’cowardly fear of trouble,’ delaying action.
Perhaps by now, both of them would have left together!
Thinking that the plan could fail at any moment, Gong Qingwan was furious!
Chu Xiran dared not offend her, crying, "Aunt, I didn’t mean it like that, I just wanted to help you..."
"Ha, help me! Do you really think you’re so capable that you can figure everything out, see everything clearly?" Gong Qingwan stepped forward, patted her face, sneered, "Girl, don’t let your ambitions be too wild or too grand, otherwise, there won’t be a good ending!"
Chu Xiran’s body trembled, feeling somewhat scared, said, "Aunt..."
Gong Qingwan pinched her face gently, said, "Xiran, you’re the girl I cherish most in the Chu Family. Because of me, you’ve gained the Chu Family’s attention! But girl, don’t forget, all the love I give you is out of respect for your deceased mother!
If you exhaust this affection, don’t blame Aunt for being merciless! Ha-ha, I’ll give you one last warning! There are countless children from the Gong Family’s side branches vying to be put before me! I’m not indispensable to you! I can do without you!"
