Chapter 1635: Chapter 1635: Stop Dragging Me into This
Without needing to think about it, she knew that the woman was probably afraid that King Qian would abandon her for her looks, which is why she deliberately tried to drive a wedge between her and King Qian.
“Junior Sister Qingyu, you shouldn’t…”
“It seems this young lady has plenty of strength, then there’s no need for her to eat anything.”
Just as Zi Mo’s eyelids began to twitch, signaling something was amiss, he heard the guards’ voices.
“No, no, it’s not like that, two brothers, Junior Sister Qingyu doesn’t mean that, she’s just been hanging at the stern for too long, and she’s a bit delirious,” she hurriedly explained to the two guards.
What is Gu Qingyu thinking, does she have any self-awareness at all? In someone else’s territory, what does she expect to do?
“She’s talking nonsense, I apologize on her behalf to you both,” she said.
But the guards weren’t hers to command, and they were certainly not going to listen to her. As for her apologies, the guards had no need for them.
One of the guards looked at Gu Qingyu coldly.
“This time I won’t gag you, the ship is already at sea, if you like to scream and shout, that’s up to you, but whether you’ll attract Sea Demonic Beasts is your own lookout,” he said.
After speaking, he kicked out without courtesy, sending Gu Qingyu flying.
“Ah!”
Gu Qingyu screamed, her body tracing a parabola as she was thrown out, followed by a ‘thud’ as something heavy crashed against the side of the ship.
Zi Mo and Brother Zheen simultaneously closed their eyes, not daring to say anything. After exchanging a glance, they had no choice but to return to their own cabins.
…
In no time at all, the two found themselves in Brother Zheen’s cabin.
“Back already? What, no food was given to her?”
Seeing that they had brought the food back, Brother Zheen was also surprised, and asked them in a low voice.
He knew that Gu Qingyu used to eat only the finest things; could it be that even now, aboard the ship, she still expected them to prepare a feast for her?
Was the food rejected?
“Having food didn’t keep her mouth shut, she cursed and railed, and got kicked back before she could even eat,” Brother Zheen’s face was also not looking good.
He tried to persuade Brother Zheen here and then convinced the guards above, do you think it was easy? Wasn’t it just to deliver food to Gu Qingyu so she wouldn’t go hungry?
And what was the result? What did he get for sticking his neck out and getting a cold shoulder in return?
“Junior Sister Qingyu is too ungrateful, from now on, whatever she wants to do, just let her,” he would not bother with such thankless tasks anymore.
“It’s more than ungrateful, she doesn’t know the severity of the situation, and she’s self-righteous,” he retorted.
Zi Mo let out a heavy sigh and sat down beside him, completely at a loss with Gu Qingyu.
If it were someone else in this situation, wouldn’t they first ensure their own safety before thinking of fighting back? But what about Gu Qingyu? When she herself was already in dire straits, she still had the mind to curse others.
“From now on, whoever wants to deliver her food can do so, don’t involve me again,” she said, fuming.
Hearing this, the Brother Zheen who had called over Zi Mo looked even more upset.
He hadn’t expected Gu Qingyu to have such a wretched character. Their kindness was all wasted on her, and she kept on shouting about who her grandfather was.
If those people really cared about the Great Elder Gu Qi’en, his granddaughter was truly squandering his reputation.
