Chapter 546: Rotten Love Interest
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qingluan also frowned, her face showing displeasure. She said, âMiss Yu, please refrain from using the same moves a second time. Do you need me to bring an audience to discuss this matter?â
âYouâŠâ
Yu Huarong gritted her teeth, her gaze as sharp as a blade, firmly fixed on Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan calmly said, âIf thereâs nothing else, I wonât keep you company.â
With that, she turned and called Xiaonan and Yuanxi to enter the main gate.
Yu Huarong raised her voice, âMiss Gu, think it through carefully. If anything happens to my cousin, the Yu family wonât let you off.â
Gu Qingluan continued walking, her tone carrying a hint of indifference. She said, â1 wonât admit to things I havenât done. If the Yu family truly wants to slander me, I wonât be intimidated.â
âDo you have the confidence, Miss, because of Young Master Yuanxiâs father? Do you know his true identity?
He is my cousin. As for the Yu familyâs background, thereâs no need for me to elaborate. My cousinâs status is high, and people from a small place like yours canât aspire to reach him.â
Yu Huarongâs sarcastic remarks didnât elicit any reaction from Gu Qingluan as she continued walking without pause.
Unable to contain herself, Yu Huarong raised her voice again, âDo you think youâre worthy of him? Have you considered whether his parents will approve of your marriage? Are you afraid that you would face opposition from his parents, so you rush to have the wedding in a small place like Tianjing?â
Feng Yuanxi tightened his grip on Gu Qingluanâs small hand, looking up at her with concern.
Gu Qingluan lowered her head and gave him a reassuring smile, silently telling him that everything was fine.
Then, she turned back to Yu Huarong, who couldnât hide her envy and malice, and said, âSo, in your eyes, heâs incapable of making decisions about his own marriage?.â
Yu Huarongâs breathing paused, and then she became angry, saying, âDonât misinterpret my words! My cousin is marrying you just because you gave birth to his child. I heard that your relationship back then was an accident, and there were no feelings involved. He just wants to find a mother for his son! Do you think heâll protect you once youâre in the Holy Capital? The Holy Capital isnât like Tianjing; it places the utmost importance on social status. I advise you to think carefully and not make a mistake! Iâm saying this for your own good.â
Gu Qingluan didnât pay much attention and replied, âThank you for your advice, Miss Yu. But you could save your breath. After all, all these words youâve said are useless and a waste of other peopleâs time.â
Yu Huarong was infuriated, âYouâyou shouldnât be celebrating so soon!â
âInstead of being so concerned about me, why donât you worry about when your cousin will wake up?â Gu Qingluan, holding one of her sons by the hand, entered the main gate and disappeared from Yu Huarongâs view.
âYouâŠâ
Yu Huarong couldnât defeat her, and verbally she couldnât gain the upper hand either. She was enveloped in gloom.
She had never suffered such a loss in her life.
Today, she was defeated by Gu Qingluan twice, which was unfamiliar and hard to swallow for the pampered Miss Yu, who always had things go her way.
âThis Gu Qingluan is truly arrogant! Does she think sheâs impressive just because she has a bit of reputation in Tianjing City? What does she amount to when she arrives in our Holy Capital? Sheâs not even worthy of cleaning our Missâs shoes!â
The maid Han Yue cautiously glanced at Yu Huarong and belittled Gu Qingluan with a mocking tone.
Yu Huarong wasnât just an ordinary wealthy heiress. Her expression didnât change much after hearing those words.
In Yu Huarongâs eyes, Gu Qingluanâs confidence must have come from her cousin.
This made Yu Huarong feel extremely uncomfortable.
âMiss Yu, this Gu Qingluan is acting too arrogant. What should we do now?â Han Yue, realizing her flattery hadnât worked, opportunistically changed the topic.
Yu Huarong furrowed her brows and said, âLetâs try to find my cousin. I want to see if heâll protect her!â
âWhat about Fourth Young Master?â
âWeâll wait here! I canât cure the poison on my cousin.â
Yu Huarong frowned.
Yu Huarong was taken by surprise at Gu Qingluanâs expertise. Not only did she manage to counteract the poison Yu Huarong had created, but the poison she used was so potent that Yu Huarong couldnât figure it out.
Originally, she and Zinan had returned to the inn to discuss their next steps. Unexpectedly, in the middle of their conversation, Zinan suddenly fell unconscious.
However, she couldnât pinpoint the cause of his condition.
Even now, she couldnât tell if he was poisoned or something else had happened.
But since he had inexplicably lost consciousness, someone must have tampered with him.
Yu Huarong thought back and realized that the only person with both the ability and opportunity to do so was Gu Qingluan.
Since the other party was denying it, she was currently powerless and could only wait for her cousin to arrive.
She didnât believe her cousin would blindly protect that woman.
Who didnât know that her cousin hated hypocritical and malicious women the most?
Inside the mansion, Gu Qingluan patted her sonâs head and said, âGo and play.â
Gu Xiaonan didnât leave immediately. âMother, did you tamper with Fourth Young Master Yu?â
Gu Qingluan smirked. âItâs an adult matter, donât meddle in it, little one.â
Gu Xiaonan puffed up his cheeks. âIâm not just an ordinary child!â
âAlright, alright, youâre a little adult, but little adults donât need to worry too much. Mother will handle it.â
Feng Yuanxi said, âMother, be careful of Yu Huarong. She likes Daddy.â
âNo wonder she speaks to you with such a weird tone, thinking of Mother as her love rival! Hasnât Daddy always been courteous to women? Why hasnât this woman given up? Could it be that Daddy gave her some hope?â
Gu Xiaonan furrowed his brow and asked displeasedly.
If it was really Daddy who had attracted such a rotten love interest, he would have to interrogate him thoroughly.
How dare they bring this rotten love interest into Gu Qingluanâs life!
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow. âHow do you know she likes your father?â
Feng Yuanxiâs expression showed a hint of displeasure. âSheâs Daddyâs cousin, and because of their family relationship, she occasionally comes to our house. But she knows how to maintain her boundaries and hasnât touched any of Daddyâs sensitive spots, so sheâs been safe until now. However, Daddy hasnât given her any special treatment; at most, he treats her as a relative. Itâs her own delusion that she thinks she has a chance to marry into Prince Lan Residence.â
Gu Xiaonan sneered, âSo, itâs still Daddyâs attitude that gives her hope. If Daddy treated her like he treats others, for example, sending people flying within a meter, letâs see if she dares to approach him again!â
Saying this, he waved his little fist in the air, as if shooing away a swarm of bees.
Feng Yuanxi glanced at Gu Qingluan, unable to discern his thoughts. He felt he needed to speak on behalf of his father. His mother was about to marry his father, and he didnât want unrelated people to ruin their happiness.
âMother, rest assured, Daddy used to treat her like she didnât exist, and heâll speak even less to her in the future.â
As they were talking, a servant came to report that Feng Tianlan had returned but was stopped by Yu Huarong..
