Chapter 154: Mrs. Gu Pretends To Be Soft

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Madam Gu gritted her teeth in hatred. Her son did not take her seriously, and her daughter-in-law even poisoned her. It was simply too embarrassing. She was so angry that her whole body was trembling. “What are you waiting for?! Tie this b*tch up. I’ll make her pay the price!”

The servants’ hearts skipped a beat as they glanced at Gu Zheng. With him around, who would dare to attack?

Madam Gu burned with anger. Of course, she understood why the servants did not dare to attack. With Gu Zheng around, who would dare to touch Qiao Xi?

If she had known earlier, she would not have kept this unfilial son with her!

Back then, she had only said that Gu Zheng was her son to avoid trouble and also to make him work for her.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zheng had grown up and was no longer under her control. He even became the person in charge of the entire Gu family.

Madam Gu gritted her teeth in hatred as her mind buzzed. “Fine! Since you’re unwilling to listen to me, I’ll do it myself! Qiao Xi! I’ll ruin your face…”

Gu Zheng casually blocked Madam Gu with a cold expression.

“Are you going against me because of this woman? I’m your mother. If it weren’t for me, you’d still be a little bastard. Now—”

“Madam Gu.” At this moment, Qiao Xi suddenly interrupted her. “Why are you so sure that I did it?”

Madam Gu roared, “Who else but you? B*tch…”

“But when you were poisoned, I was still in the dark room.”

Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with grievances, and she had an innocent expression. “Madam Gu, I know you don’t like me, but you need evidence to convict me. It’s utterly impossible for me to have escaped from the dark room to poison you. I have nothing to say if you insist on wronging me, but there are so many eyes watching!”

“You…”

Madam Gu was speechless.

Everyone looked at each other and could not help but nod.

That’s right, Qiao Xi had always been in the dark room and had no chance to poison them at all!

They all knew in their hearts that Madam Gu detested her daughter-in-law, but it was not Qiao Xi who did this, yet she insisted on making her the scapegoat.

Shen Ying looked at Qiao Xi with resentment. She no longer pretended to be a delicate flower. “Qiao Xi, stop quibbling. Only you can be so vicious. You’re too heartless…”

Qiao Xi had an indifferent expression. “You were poisoned four hours ago.”

Shen Ying quickly retorted, “What the doctor says might not be true!”

Everyone looked at Shen Ying mockingly.

Qiao Xi smiled helplessly. “Miss Shen, the doctors invited by the Gu family is famous in the industry. They have saved countless lives. You can say whatever you want, but how can you slander the doctors’ innocence?!”

The servants all looked at Shen Ying with dissatisfaction.

In just a few words, Shen Ying had inexplicably offended the doctors. It was really wishful thinking for her to want to be the mistress of the Gu family in the future!

At this moment, the butler walked over with a helpless expression. “Madam, the surveillance cameras show that only the three of you were in the tearoom four hours ago. No one else appeared during that period.”

Gu Zheng was standing right in front of him. The butler did not dare to spout nonsense even if he had the guts.

Four hours ago, Qiao Xi was in the dark room and had not left.

Madam Gu, Madam Wang, and Shen Ying were all in the Gu family’s tearoom.

The tearoom was reserved for Madam Gu’s guests and even her personal servants could not enter. Who exactly was so capable as to poison the three of them?

The doctors had serious expressions. “Poisonous herbs can be inhaled through the nose, but the smell is pungent. It’s easy to notice. If it was in the water, it’d be colorless and odorless, making it difficult to discover. You should think about whether you drank something.”

Everyone was stunned for a moment before they suddenly came to a realization.

No one was allowed to enter Madam Gu’s private tearoom.

The tea they drank was tested and found to be non-toxic. However, they were all poisoned after drinking the tea.

It was obvious that the person who poisoned them was Madam Gu!]

Qiao Xi silently sighed, her face filled with grievances.

“My identity is indeed not worthy of Gu Zheng. If you don’t like me, Madam Gu, you could just chase me away. Now, in order to accuse me of poisoning others, you even implicated Miss Shen and Madam Wang.”

Qiao Xi changed the topic. “Could it be that this was your plan all along? As long as you chase me away, Miss Shen can marry Gu Zheng. I understand! I’ll leave right now! Miss Shen, I wish you happiness! Boo-hoo…”

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xi covered her face and cried.

Gu Zheng: “…”

Gu Zheng pulled Qiao Xi into his embrace and comforted her in a light voice. “Don’t cry anymore. No one can chase you away.”

Qiao Xi sobbed. “Boo-hoo… But your mother doesn’t like me.. She even accused me of poisoning others. If I’m really convicted, how will I continue living in this world?!”
