Gu Xuexue planned flawlessly.
In the very next second.
Caught off guard, Gu Qiqi slapped her!
Bam!
It was loud!
Forceful!
Gu Xuexue didn’t react at all. She was completely dumbfounded.
Her face couldn’t help but tilt to the side.
In fact, her entire body tilted to the side due to the inertia.
She slipped!
“Ah!”
She couldn’t help but fall onto the small pile of crumbs.
Although the fragments of the antique vase were small, there were still many sharp edges.
Gu Xuexue’s fall was like ten thousand arrows piercing her heart. Oh, no, ten thousand arrows piercing her buttocks…
It was so painful that cold sweat formed on her forehead. Her face turned pale as she shouted.
“Gu Qiqi, why did you hit me?! You’re crazy!”
“I’m more awake than ever. Didn’t you get those vase fragments on the floor to achieve the effect you have now? You should thank me for helping you.”
Had Gu Xuexue’s IQ been eaten by a dog?
What about upholding justice for Mu Liuchuan? Those were just poor excuses to cover herself up.
Gu Xuexue’s motive was to delay her and frame her for breaking the antique vase.
Although this scene was different from her previous life, the outcome was the same!
If she wasn’t prepared, she would indeed be easily fooled.
But she had already suffered a loss once in her previous life. She knelt in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights and suffered from knee pain for the rest of her life.
Wasn’t the lesson profound enough?
Would she let Gu Xuexue succeed?
Of course not!
This time, not only would she not fall for it, but she would also return the favor with an eye for an eye. She would definitely not be soft-hearted.
Outside the door.
The footsteps were already approaching.
“Xue Xue? You’re inside? I heard that that b*tch bullied you and insisted on asking you out alone to force you to stay further away from Gong Jue? Don’t worry. With Grandma in charge, it’s not certain who the person from the Gong family will marry!” The old lady’s angry voice traveled over.
Soon after, the old master’s voice also arrived. “What are you talking about? How can you scold Qiqi without distinguishing right from wrong? When will it be your turn to decide who the Gong family marries?”
“Hmph! I’m not scolding her. Someone saw it with their own eyes. She brought Xuexue over from the washroom and wanted to lock Xuexue in the study room! She took advantage of the fact that we were all at the banquet to bully Xuexue here!” The Old Madam said self-righteously, “Gu Shiba, don’t you think so?”
That younger cousin who had been named was Gu Shiba. He was also the boy who had been bribed by Gu Xuexue to cheat Gu Qiqi in the washroom just now.
Upon hearing this, she nodded guiltily. “Yes, Grandma. I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears…”
Upon hearing the voice outside the door, Gu Xuexue’s eyes lit up.
She could still be saved!
She could say that…
“Grandma! Help! Qiqi is going to kill me…”
Gu Xuexue cried exaggeratedly.
Old Madam was so anxious that she kicked open the door and stepped in.
Behind her, Old Master and his relatives—who had heard the news—were stunned when they saw the situation in the room.
Gu Qiqi stood calmly on the spot.
Gu Xuexue collapsed onto a pile of broken vase fragments in a sorry state and cried like a weeping beauty.
Anyone would think that Gu Qiqi was bullying Gu Xuexue.
This was simply too obvious.
Even Old Master couldn’t speak up to protect Gu Qiqi anymore.
Old Madam Gu helped Gu Xuexue up with heartache. “Xuexue, I’ll stand up for you. Tell me, did that b*tch Gu Qiqi deliberately push you down?”
Gu Xuexue nodded fiercely. “Yes!”
