Gu Yunrong quickly stabilized her emotions and raised her eyebrows with a faint smile.
She didn’t expect Gu Yanfei to be nearby. However, since she appeared at the entrance of the Myriad Herb Hall, she should know that the Hua couple had gone to the Gu residence to look for her.
Ha.
Gu Yunrong smiled as well and waited quietly for Gu Yanfei to enter.
She wanted to see how fl.u.s.tered Gu Yanfei was. Or perhaps, if she came in and questioned her arrogantly in public, this matter would become even more interesting.
What will Gu Yanfei do?
Will she choose to beg or scold me?
However, Gu Yanfei only retracted her gaze indifferently. She got on the horse and left without looking back.
It was as if she had come here just to pa.s.s by and take a look.
The Myriad Herb Hall was still lively, but Gu Yunrong wasn’t as high-spirited as before. She was even a little suffocated, as if there was a ball of air held in her chest.
She and Gu Yanfei seemed to be natural enemies from the moment they were born.
The two of them couldn’t coexist.
Gu Yunrong clenched her fists in her sleeves and dug her perfectly manicured nails into her tender palms to maintain her composure. She watched Gu Yanfei ride away without moving.
Gu Yanfei rode back to the Gu Mansion as if nothing had happened. She drank tea and read books at leisure.
An hour later, Juan Bi reported in a hurry, “Miss, the Hua family is here. They’re clamoring outside the residence!”
Gu Yanfei was already waiting for the Hua family to come. She was calm and composed as she slowly finished the tea in her cup and slowly walked towards the door.
From afar, she saw a short and fat woman in green shouting at the Gu family’s gatekeeper, “Where’s Second Lady Gu?”
“Is she deliberately avoiding our Madam?!”
“If she still doesn’t come out and give us an explanation, we’ll sue the imperial capital!”
The voice of the old woman in green became louder and louder, deliberately so that the people in the residence could hear it.
As Gu Yanfei walked out of the corner door, she said calmly, “If you want to report it to the officials, go ahead. Do you need me to send someone to bring you to the capital?!”
The girl’s voice was like a clear spring flowing in a mountain stream, clear and cold.
When the two old women at the door saw Gu Yanfei, they hurriedly bent their knees and bowed. “Second Lady!”
Madam Hua, who was beside the carriage, immediately looked over. Her dignified face was slightly distorted, and her cold and sharp gaze was like a knife that wanted to cut Gu Yanfei into a thousand pieces.
“You’re Second Lady Gu?!” Madam Hua asked word by word. “You’re the one who harmed my son with sorcery!!”
Every word was filled with anger that seemed to burn people.
As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Hua rushed towards Gu Yanfei without any warning. She was like a furious tigress, and her anger made her lose her mind.
She raised her right arm high and wanted to slap Gu Yanfei’s face ruthlessly. Her eyes seemed to be filled with bloodthirsty rage…
The old woman was busy trying to stop the green-robed maid from the Hua family and was completely caught off guard when the seemingly elegant and dignified lady suddenly went mad. She reacted a beat too late and exclaimed in panic, “Second Miss!”
The old woman quickly ran towards Gu Yanfei and wanted to stop Madam Hua. In the next moment, she saw Gu Yanfei flick her sleeve gently. Her light and wide sleeve flew up elegantly and didn’t even touch Madam Hua. However, Madam Hua seemed to have been sent flying with a whip. She retreated in a sorry state and staggered.
“Madam, be careful.” Master Hua rushed forward and quickly supported his Madam.
Madam Hua glared at Gu Yanfei fiercely. The anger in her eyes seemed to be irreconcilable hatred between the two of them.
Madam Hua was angry and hateful, but Gu Yanfei was calm. The two of them were only three feet apart.
“Didn’t you say that you were going to report it to the officials?” Gu Yanfei said calmly as she glanced at the couple.
In Madam Hua’s eyes, she was fearless. Because she had the Eldest Prince’s support, she was fearless.
Madam Hua raised her hand and pointed at Gu Yanfei’s face. Her arms were trembling with anger, and she gritted her teeth so hard that they almost shattered. Her chest heaved up and down. “You… you cast an evil spell on my son and want to kill him, right?!”
“A life for a life. Our Hua family won’t let this go!”
Madam Hua said firmly.
Master Hua looked at Gu Yanfei with a sinister gaze. His face was as dark as water as he guessed how much Gu Yanfei knew..
