Chapter 375: Chapter 374: Please Step Aside

Zheng Wen looked at Mrs. Fu, a dark gleam flashing in her eyes.

Twenty years ago, she was overshadowed by Zheng Xiu’s aura and, despite her best efforts, she couldn’t gain even a bit of attention from the head of the Zheng Family Main House.

It wasn’t until Zheng Xiu had an accident and could no longer design jewelry that her talents were discovered by the people of the Zheng Family Main House and she was cultivated as a key figure.

Over the years, under the halo of “Huaxia Chief Designer,” she had enjoyed endless wealth and honor, not only holding significant sway within the Zheng Family but also receiving queen-like treatment from her husband’s family.

She absolutely wouldn’t allow Zheng Xiu to make a comeback!

Even if it was just an elusive possibility, she was determined to completely extinguish it!

Thinking this, Zheng Wen sneered, getting ready to deliver the final blow to Mrs. Fu, who was nearly at the brink of a mental breakdown—

“Excuse me, you’re blocking the way. Could you please move aside?” Suddenly, a calm and light voice interrupted.

Triggered by Zheng Wen’s constant provocation and nearly collapsing, Mrs. Fu brightened up upon hearing this and, as if grasping a lifeline, called out, “Chi Gui!”

Following her shout, Zheng Wen and her group also saw Chi Gui standing not far away.

She was dressed casually in a blue blouse and jeans, the blouse tucked into her pants, and she wore a white baseball cap, her pitch-black hair untied and loosely draped over her shoulders.

Beneath the brim of the cap, her almond-shaped eyes were dark and bright, as if carrying the stars of the whole sky, stunningly beautiful.

Zheng Wen and her companions were taken aback.

The Zheng Family was only a second-tier family in Kyoto, and they had never met Chi Gui before, only feeling that the girl’s aura was unique and not like an ordinary person.

Zheng Wen spoke with some caution, “Excuse me, I’m catching up with my sister here. Please don’t interrupt us.”

Chi Gui remained calm, completely ignoring Zheng Wen as she slowly walked over to Mrs. Fu and greeted politely, “Good afternoon. Ready to leave?”

Mrs. Fu quickly nodded.

For some reason, seeing Chi Gui’s calm demeanor, she felt an inexplicable calmness settle in her heart.

Seeing Mrs. Fu nod, Chi Gui naturally reached out to hold her arm and said to Zheng Wen and her group who were still blocking the way, “Please make way.”

Zheng Wen, since becoming the Huaxia Chief Jewelry Designer, had never been ignored like this.

Even members of the Four Great Families of Kyoto, whom she rarely got to meet, would always greet her politely.

Zheng Wen looked Chi Gui up and down, and once she was sure she didn’t recognize her and that she couldn’t possibly be some heiress from a wealthy family, she sneered abruptly, “You probably don’t know who I am…”

Before she could finish, about a dozen tall, black-suited men suddenly walked over.

These well-trained men quickly formed a human wall, blocking Zheng Wen and others behind them and clearing a path for Chi Gui and Mrs. Fu.

Chi Gui nodded her thanks to the leader of the group and left with Mrs. Fu.

Behind them, Zheng Wen and her people were too frightened to make a sound.

Zheng Wen dared to cause trouble only because she had found out that Mrs. Fu was alone.

Now with the Fu Family bodyguards in action, she didn’t dare utter a word.

It wasn’t until Chi Gui and Mrs. Fu’s figures disappeared from sight that the bodyguards who had formed the wall orderly retreated and blended back into the surroundings.

One of the women behind Zheng Wen patted her chest with lingering fear and said, “Are those the Fu Family bodyguards? They’re terrifying…”

The last bodyguard, overhearing this, turned back to look at them and sneered, “If we were Fu Family bodyguards, do you think you’d still be standing here?”

Zheng Wen and her people were puzzled, not understanding the implication in the bodyguard’s words, but now a more pressing concern arose, “Zheng Wen, what if Zheng Xiu goes back and tells the Fu Family that you bullied her…”

If Zheng Xiu’s mental state collapsed from the assault, that would be one thing, but now the situation was different… The Fu Family definitely wouldn’t let this go…

Zheng Wen sneered interrupting, “Unless Zheng Xiu truly doesn’t care about the decline of the Zheng Family, she definitely won’t speak out.”
