Tang Rongling and Gu YunCi also came out of their room. Gu YunCi immediately ran to Gu Qingxin, nervously looking at her, then at Grandma Gu downstairs, “Grandma, it’s a misunderstanding. My sister didn’t intentionally go to All Ling’s room.”

“What? Gu Qingxin, do you have no shame? Earl sneaking into All Ling’s room? She’s about to get engaged to Xiao Ci!” Grandma Gu became even more angry.

Tang Rongling is getting engaged to Gu YunCi? Gu Qingxin found it suddenly humorous. So, the Gu Family had long silently consented for these two to be together. Then what does she count as?

“Grandma, if I remember correctly, 1 am Tang Rongling’s fiancee! I might have left the Gu Family, but our engagement still stands!” Gu Qingxin’s heart was icy cold.

“Xiao Ci is already pregnant, do you want her child to have no father? How can your thoughts be so malicious!”

“Tang Rongling is still engaged to me and my sister is carrying my fiance’s child. You’re calling me malicious. I want to ask, where am I malicious? Did I ask her to sleep with my fiance? Now that the two of them are clingy, do I even have the qualification to speak? You’re calling me shameless, but she’s not even married and she’s already pregnant, so what is she?” Gu Qingxin retorted coldly.

“Qingxin, believe me, it was an accident that time between Ah Ling and me, we really didn’t mean to.” Gu YunCi grabbed her arm in explanation, nervously.

“So you’re saying what happened at the hotel yesterday was also an accident? Gu YunCi, you are wasting your talent by not becoming an actress.” Gu Qingxin disdainfully tried to pull her arm back.

Who knew that her arm was suddenly jerked by Gu YunCi. To outsiders, it looked like Gu Qingxin had shoved her away.

“All!” Gu YunCi screamed suddenly and fell down the stairway.

Gu Qingxin only felt herself flung aside by a strong force. In order to save Gu YunCi, Tang Rongling crashed down the stairs, holding her in his arms.

He carefully protected Gu YunCi, using his body as a cushion for her.

With muffled grunts and screams echoing back and forth, Gu Huai’an slapped Gu Qingxin across her face, his face filled with rage, “Wicked girl! How can you be so cruel? Your sister is carrying a child!”

Originally, Zhou Mantong said she would marry her to the second young master of the Meng family to deter her unending feelings for Tang Rongling. He was hesitant, considering she’s his own daughter and he knows very well the debauchery of that second young master. Looking at the situation now, it seems it’s time to marry off this disobedient daughter.

Everyone had gathered around Gu YunCi nervously, as if she was the most precious treasure in the world while Gu Qingxin stood alone on the stairs, as if abandoned by the world.

She should have seen through all this long ago, but why does her heart still hurt uncontrollably?

Gu Qingxin walked out of the Gu Villa’s gate. Behind her, someone called out, “Gu Qingxin, stop right there.”

Gu Qingxin’s body stiffened as Tang Rongling quickly walked to her, seizing her chin, “Gu Qingxin, how dare you harm Xiao Ci and the child.”

“Tang Rongling, have you lost your mind? Would 1 harm Gu YunCi in front of so many people?” Gu Qingxin angrily pushed aside his hand.

“What wouldn’t you dare, Gu Qingxin? If nothing happens to Xiao Ci and the child today, I will spare you this time. But if you dare to harm Xiao Ci in the future, I won’t let you off…”

“Smack!” His words were finally interrupted by a slap.. Gu Qingxin slowly lowered her hand, her eyes dry and voice slightly trembling, “Tang Rongling, I thought that even though you don’t love me, we grew up together – you should at least understand me! It seems 1 was just daydreaming!”
