Chapter 310: Xiaobei Suffered
After Gu Yuanyuan was punished, Gu Enlong, who had been unable to flare up due to his status, also threw a cold glance at Gu Qiqi.
He would remember this girl!
No wonder Meifeng kept saying that she was difficult to deal with. Seeing it today, it was indeed so!
Even if he wasn’t going to stand up for Meifeng, he wasn’t going to take the beating and humiliation of Yuan Yuan lightly today. As her father, he was going to settle the scores after this!
At the same time, Old Madam Gu glared fiercely at Gu Qiqi.
Although Old Madam was very unhappy in her heart, one of her main objectives today was to bring the Shen family to congratulate Old Master Shen on his birthday. At the same time, she wanted to see if she could persuade Old Master to use his connections to help the Shen family’s business in its current predicament.
The Shen family’s pharmaceutical packaging company was going bankrupt because of a lawsuit!
It was simply a disaster.
What was more important and urgent than this?
Of course, it would be best if Gong Sheng could come. She would push Xuexue towards Gong Sheng and facilitate their relationship. With Gong Sheng’s favor and help, Old Master would lean to her side and the matter would be settled easily.
Would she still have to worry about the Shen family not rising?
Thus, she didn’t have the time to find trouble with Gu Qiqi anymore. Instead, she urged everyone. “It’s about time. Shen Da, Shen Er, Shen Wu, why aren’t you supporting Old Master to the dining room quickly? If you have anything to say, we can talk while we eat later. You guys should toast him properly!”
Old Madam gave the Shen brothers a look.
He frowned again. “Why isn’t Old Third Shen here?”
“Oh, Third Brother had a meeting in school and asked me to bring a birthday gift over!”
“This Old Third Shen is outrageous. Tell him to come over alone tonight to apologize!”
“Yes, Old Madam!”
Gu Qiqi wasn’t familiar with the Shen family. She had never seen these cousins before.
As for the Eldest Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother that they were talking about… She didn’t even know their names!
Of course, she didn’t have the intention to chat with them either. Instead, she held Xiaobei’s hand and told her grandfather about Xiaobei finding a tutor recently.
The old master was very happy to hear this. The unhappiness from being interrupted by Gu Yuanyuan just now was swept away.
He raised his thumb and praised Xiaobei. “Good child, good child! I can see the Gu family’s true style from you! Persevering and unyielding!”
Old Master Gu’s praise attracted the praise of all the uncles. For a moment, the entire venue’s attention landed on Xiaobei.
Gu Xuexue squinted her almond-shaped eyes and said casually, “Xiaobei, why didn’t I see what gift you gave Grandpa?”
Xiao Bei pursed his lips and was about to speak.
Gu Meifeng chimed in. “Xue Xue, you’re stupid. Xiaobei is blind. He can’t see and he doesn’t know how to earn money. Why would he give you a gift? He can only talk nonsense to cheer up your grandfather.”
The explanation that Xiaobei had wanted to say was choked back by this word “blind”.
The expressions of the others in the hall gradually changed.
Everyone’s praise just now seemed to be useless after he was insulted like this.
Gu Qiqi patted Xiaobei’s shoulder to comfort him.
She knew that Xiao Bei had been silently preparing a gift these few days, but time was too tight. Xiaobei had classes so he wasn’t done.
Grandpa wouldn’t mind such an explanation. What would the rest of the Gu family think?
Would she think that it was an excuse?
Gu Meifeng and her daughter were really scheming!
They really didn’t let go of any chance to attack her and Xiaobei and sow discord!
Gu Qiqi’s eyes sank.
Without batting an eyelid, she picked up Gu Xuexue’s painting of pearl powder on the table that imitated Gong Jue’s mother’s work “Fishing On An Ice Lake In The Snow”.
You want to bully my Xiaobei?
There was a price to pay for that!
