"Then elder sister, do you think that I'm the one who caused someone else's stomach to grow?"
Gu Qingruo was at a loss for words. Even Xiao Yi Mo didn't deny this. It was obvious that he also believed that She Yiyu's child was his.
Gu Qingli sneered, "Elder sister, you've shown off enough. Can I leave now?"
She turned around and tightened her arm. She couldn't help but turn her head back, but she didn't expect that Qing Ruo would move so quickly. She slapped her in the face, although she turned her head to the side and didn't completely avoid the slap.
Gu Qing Li's heart was on fire as he shook off her hand. He returned two blows to her, then flicked his pinky. A speck of colorless, tasteless powder was flicked out. Gu Qing Ruoyun didn't even pay attention as she sucked it in.
Gu Qingruo's eyes were wide open. She was more concerned about the two slaps she received. In her entire life, she never thought that this submissive little sister would actually be so tough!
"Enough, Gu Qingruo!" I'm giving you face by calling you big sister, but do you really think you're some sort of toy? "
Gu Qingruo was shocked and angry at the same time. She struggled as she shouted, "Men! Seize that bitch! "Come …" Her jaw was suddenly pinched, her mouth half open, unable to utter another word.
Both of her hands were in Gu Qing Li's other hand, like iron hoops, and she was also powerless to resist.
She didn't know when Gu Qingli had become so powerful, but fear gradually filled her eyes as she let out a helpless' wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu.'
"Also, you better restrain yourself in front of me in the future. Otherwise, even Xiao Yi Mo won't be able to protect you!"
Gu Qingli's eyes were full of killing intent, cold light shooting in all directions. Her tone was sharp and severe, causing Gu Qingruo's legs to go soft. Her struggling movements immediately slowed down.
Gu Qingli sneered. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly discovered that Gu Qingruo was struggling as her collar was unraveled, revealing a piece of jewelry that had fallen from the sky.
Although the chain was made of pure gold, she didn't think much of it. However, the pendant's shape was extremely peculiar, translucent in texture. Under the sunlight, it emitted a five-colored luster similar to a mummy.
Mausoleum Fish Scale! Gu Qingli's heart skipped a beat. She almost wanted to rip it off her neck immediately, but after thinking for a moment, she decided that if they tried to rob her in the future, it would all go wrong.
Gu Qing Li's hand loosened and Gu Qing Ruo suddenly lost her balance. She lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Gu Qingli didn't pay any attention to her. She patted her hands and coldly said, "In the future, you have to first open your eyes and see who's in front of you." After that, she tossed Gu Qingruo onto the ground and left.
Gu Qingruo kept feeling that something wasn't right, but not only was her butt in pain, her entire body had gone limp, and she couldn't get up for a moment. She sobbed and shouted, "Someone come! Quick, help this wangfei up! "
Only now did she have the time to figure out what had happened. For some reason, she felt that Gu Qing Li had changed — had become terrifying! That look in his eyes, that tone, that strength … This was not something that her useless second sister could have. Could it be that after marrying to the Mo King's estate for a few months, Prince Mo had completely reborn her?
Touching her swollen cheek, she felt her cheek, which had been numbed from the beating, begin to hurt. She breathed in cold air and was carried to Yu's room, sobbing, by the maidservants who had rushed over to help her.
Upon seeing her beloved daughter being beaten to such a state, Yu Bi Ling turned pale with fright. She hurriedly asked who had done this. When she heard that it was actually Gu Qing Li, disbelief filled her face, "Are you dreaming? That girl actually dared to resist? And hit you? "
However, the two finger marks on both sides of Gu Qingruo's face were clear, an indisputable fact.
Furious, Yu Bi Ling ordered her maidservants to chase after Gu Qing Li and bring him back.
Not long after, she returned and reported that Princess Mo had already left by car.
Yu Bi Ling angrily used an egg to help Gu Qing Ruo's face. She consoled her while she thought of an idea, "Sooner or later, I'll make that little bitch look good …" "I don't know what's going on with Yuli, but it's been a long time since I've received any news, and now that I've brought this information back to the manor, I don't know why Yuli didn't follow me!"
"Mom, I'm afraid that the lunatic causing trouble at my wedding was called over by Gu Qingli!"
"She's not that bold …" Just as she said this, Yu Bi Ling felt that something was off. If she dared to hit her own sister, she would be even braver than the heavens themselves. Therefore, he changed his tone and said, "She doesn't have such methods."
"I asked her today, and she didn't admit it. Seeing her arrogant attitude, if she was the one who did it, she shouldn't have denied it … "
Gu Qingli thought about it while sitting in the carriage. If she had known earlier that Gu Qingruo had the scales on her, she would have doubled the amount of medicine she had just now. Unfortunately, it had been caught off guard long ago, as it was only as small as the inside of the canopy. She could only wait for it to flare up.
In order to prevent others from suspecting her, the effects of her poison were extremely slow. At least half a month after her return, Gu Qing Ruo's symptoms began to appear. By the time she became anxious and looked around for a cure, it would probably be a month later …
On the way back, she made an excuse herself by stopping by the roadside to buy things, then climbed up the path beside the Xuanhua Restaurant to see Du Ying.
Du Ying, on the other hand, felt refreshed. With Gu Qing Li's arrangements, the old procuress no longer dared to call her a guest, only allowing her to rest every day.
However, her Xiao Shuo Fang really hadn't come again. She probably didn't want him anymore and she had been thinking about what Gu Qing Li had said recently. She felt cold to him and only felt a bit of hatred.
Gu Qing Li called over Wen Xiang, asked her about the recent situation, and left after saying a few more words.
After returning to the palace, she was surprised to find Xiao Yi Xiu waiting for her.
"Isn't the prince busy?"
"Just rested. Why are you back so soon? Didn't you have a good reminiscence with your King Mu? " His bite on the two words "Sunset King" was particularly strong. It was unknown whether his eyes were filled with ridicule or displeasure.
"Is Your Highness jealous?" If you were afraid that I would meet with King Mu, you would have stopped me from returning to my parents' home. "
"You think too highly of yourself." He stood up and looked around her. "So, who are you arguing with now?"
Gu Qingli was startled. How did he know? Lowering her head, she realized that his clothes had already been wiped flat. There shouldn't be any wrinkles on his clothes.
Xiao Yi Xiu lifted his chin and gently caressed her left cheek. He said lightly, "It's swollen."
Only then did she recall the scene of Gu Qingruo slapping her in the face. She felt a burning pain, but soon forgot. After all, she wasn't a delicate and charming young miss like Gu Qingruo. This kind of pain meant nothing to her.
But when his soft fingers brushed past her face, she felt a little rough. She subconsciously judged that it was a hand that was used to holding weapons, then she felt that his movements were gentle and … Ambiguous.
"It's no big deal, Gu Qingruo hit me once, I gave her back twice."
"He still has that same bad temper." He still has that same bad temper of his. He said this softly, but he did not seem to be reprimanding her. She felt that perhaps she was mistaken, but did she think that he was actually a little sympathetic?
"I am taking the blame for you. She thought it was because of me that Yi Yu's matter was done by me. A woman who has been imprisoned by you in the palace all day, how could she fly out to do such a thing? "
"Go to the kitchen and cook some eggs yourself. Your face is swollen and ugly."
Gu Qingli was stunned for a moment. Although she had to cook the egg herself and had to knead it in the end, she still couldn't get used to the worrisome words coming out of his mouth.
"In your eyes, when have I ever looked good?" Finishing her sentence, she turned and left, not giving him the chance to reprimand her.
