Gu Qingluan smiled when she heard the words and said, “Have you inquired about me?”

Xiao Jingye saw her smile and thought he had impressed her. He immediately said, “Your reputation has long spread throughout the continent, becoming a laughingstock. Even the Qiankun Academy has people spreading malicious rumors about you. If 1 were you, 1 wouldn’t be able to bear this humiliation!” “Have you not heard that I killed the Fifth Prince? Have those who provoked me from the Gu family received their retribution?” Gu Qingluan raised her delicate eyebrows, revealing a hint of coldness in her smile.

Xiao Jingye continued, “Just those few people? Were there only a few who bullied you? Back then, your suffering was caused by everyone here! Including the royal family and the major clans of the Chengyuan Kingdom! Haven’t they mocked you? Haven’t they made fun of you? Even if they didn’t take action, they watched you become a laughingstock, didn’t they?”

Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but sigh. This guy had quite the eloquence; she was almost convinced by him.

Seeing her reaction, Xiao Jingye pressed on, “Don’t you know? Gu Lingxue, the second young lady of the Gu family, thrives in the Qiankun Academy. How many people support her? Do you think that coming back to Tianjing City and killing a few people makes you powerful? Hah! You have a narrow perspective! Compared to Gu Lingxue, you are far behind…”

Before he could finish his sentence, a punch landed squarely on his face.

Xiao Jingye screamed in pain.

His face was knocked to one side, his handsome face quickly swelling and reddening, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. Those around, including the soldiers, winced as if they had been punched themselves, feeling a twinge of pain.

However, as they watched Xiao Jingye get beaten up, they couldn’t help but secretly revel in his misfortune.

This guy had become a prisoner, and he was still so arrogant with his mouth. Even the bystanders felt irritated listening to him.

Xiao Jingye turned back to glare at Gu Qingluan angrily. “Are you embarrassed?”

Gu Qingluan blew on her fist and then lifted it towards him.

Xiao Jingye instinctively dodged.

Her fist didn’t land on his face again.

In a cold and indifferent voice, Gu Qingluan said, “I’ve been wanting to hit someone for a long time. If you want to get beaten up, feel free to continue.”

Xiao Jingye:

He wasn’t crazy, so how could he possibly want to get beaten up?

However, after a while, he couldn’t hold back and said, “Don’t think that you’re all glorious now. Once Gu Lingxue returns, you’ll be nothing!”

“What’s your relationship with Gu Lingxue?” Gu Qingluan looked at him with a dangerous gaze.

He kept mentioning Gu Lingxue; could it be that he was also a supporter of Gu Lingxue?

She hadn’t expected someone who had caused such turmoil to be related to Gu Lingxue.

“I…” Xiao Jingye met Gu Qingluan’s menacing gaze and his momentum weakened by three points. “1 have no relationship with her! 1 just dislike her.” This answer surprised Gu Qingluan.

“You dislike her? Didn’t you say she’s very talented? Has many supporters?” “That’s right! But I just don’t like her! Just because others support her doesn’t mean I have to as well! Is that not allowed?” Xiao Jingye snorted disdainfully. “Miss Gu, this guy is definitely trying to deceive you.” Qitian You, who stood nearby, reminded Gu Qingluan. “He must have found out that you and Second Lady Gu don’t get along and is trying to win your favor using this method.” Judging from Gu Qingluan’s behavior since returning to the Gu family, everyone could tell that she had no fondness for Gu Lingxue.

It was not entirely impossible to win Gu Qingluan’s favor by excluding Gu Lingxue.

However, this guy played his role quite convincingly.

Naturally, Gu Qingluan also guessed this possibility.

She scrutinized Xiao Jingye and asked, “Who are you? How do you know about Gu Lingxue’s situation at the Qiankun Academy?”
