Chapter 104: Will Stand On Your Side
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Qingxue admired Madam Qiao when she saw how domineering she was.
The personality of Imperial Duke Zhan’s wife was quite to her liking.
Madam Qiao took Gu Qingxue’s hand and patted it lightly. “Don’t worry, Eldest Miss Gu. Although I fainted just now, my consciousness hasn’t completely dissipated. I vaguely heard your conversation, so I will stand on your side.”
...“Thank you, Madam.” Gu Qingxue finally understood that the Kou clan and Gu Chengbin had bumped into each other.
Madam Qiao had a reputation for being fierce and hated being lied to the most.
Madam Kou and Gu Chengbin wanted to take away the credit belonging to her in front of Madam Qiao, so they obviously treated Madam Qiao as a fool. With Madam Qiao’s temperament, she naturally could not tolerate it.
Gu Qingxue originally wanted to personally take revenge for Lan Wen, but it seemed that she did not have to.
“Your Highness, please help my mother and brother!” Gu Lingyue looked at Ling Tianqi with teary eyes when she saw this scene.
Ling Tianqi frowned and looked at the Qiao family with a hint of fear in his eyes.
Imperial Duke Zhan behind Madam Qiao was not to be trifled with. Even his father had to treat him with respect, not to mention his status.
Besides, this matter was the fault of Madam Kou.
Ling Tianqi was not the only one who thought this way. The other guests also felt that Gu Chengbin deserved it.
“Your Highness!” Gu Lingyue saw that Ling Tianqi did not speak and urged him anxiously.
“Why? Does the Second Miss want to accompany him?” Madam Qiao gave her a sharp gaze.
Gu Lingyue was so scared that she did not dare to speak. She stood on the spot and trembled.
Madam Kou gritted her teeth and watched this scene. She did not dare to make a sound. She could only watch her son being beaten up with heartache.
“Qiu Yan, tell me what happened.” Madam Qiao did not hear it clearly when she was unconscious. She still needed Qiu Yan to find out the truth.
“Yes!” Qiu Yan quickly recounted the whole story.
Madam Qiao nodded in satisfaction. “Well, it seems that I didn’t hit the wrong person. Miss Gu, don’t worry. I won’t let anyone take the credit for Miss Gu.”
“Thank you, Madam.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, her sharp gaze landed on Gu Xin’er’s face.
Gu Xin’er was stunned. She did not need Gu Qingxue to remind her. She kneeled down and apologized, “I was wrong. I admit that you’re a miracle doctor.”
“Madam, why don’t we stop here? Thank you for upholding justice for me,” Gu Qingxue said.
She did not intend to kill them all. She had not found the people who had harmed her grandmother yet, so she still needed to spare their lives.
“It should be me who’s thanking you. I’ll go back today. I’ll send someone to fetch Miss Gu to my residence tomorrow to treat me,” Madam Qiao said gratefully.
Gu Qingxue agreed immediately and watched Qiao leave.
“I’m sorry to have startled you all. The birthday banquet continues. Please enjoy yourselves.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, she walked to the Old Madam’s side and sat down as if nothing had happened.
The guests present were not in the mood to stay. They hurriedly found an excuse and left the Gu residence.
“Gu Qingxue, you’ve gone too far!” Gu Lingyue was the first to rush over after all the guests had left. She had never been so humiliated before. She could not even protect her usual disguise, she only wanted to teach Gu Qingxue a lesson. “Nanny Zhou, teach her a lesson!”
Nanny Zhou went up to Gu Qingxue right away.
Gu Qingxue sat in her seat calmly. A silver needle shot out from her fingers and went into Nanny Zhou’s knee.
