Chapter 266: Shocked Everyone! (10)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Qingchen and Rong Yu knew why Old Master Rong suddenly spoke. It was to give Rong Qingtian a way out.
He interrupted what Rong Qingtian was about to say.
If they really spent one billion treating Luo Qiaolian’s injury, the Rong family would become a laughingstock.
Of course, Old Master Rong still had some thoughts.
It was something that Gu Qingchen had not thought of, but she had read it from Old Master Rong’s mind.
“Back then, Luo Yu died when giving birth to Rong Yu. Luo Yu had chosen to give up on herself and protect the child. The Rong family could not do anything for Yuan Luoyu. Today, if they were willing to spend one billion just for Luo Qiaolian’s minor injuries, it would be not fair to Luo Yu.”
After reading Old Master Rong’s thoughts, Gu Qingchen decided not to provoke him anymore. At least he was a good person.
Because of Old Master Rong’s interruption, Butler Mo had already invited a family doctor over. The family doctor quickly went to look at Luo Qiaolian’s wound.
Gu Qingchen looked at Rong Rui. Rong Rui also happened to look at Gu Qingchen. At first, he was stunned, then he smiled at Gu Qingchen to show everyone’s demeanor.
However, Gu Qingchen said, “Sir, do you think it’s funny to see Second Madam Rong fall down the stairs?”
Humph! Rong Rui was not the only one who knew how to set a trap for others. Gu Qingchen also knew how to set a trap for others.
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Qingchen finished her words, everyone’s attention was focused on Rong Rui.
Before Rong Rui could hide his smile, everyone caught his smile.
Rong Yu squinted at Gu Qingchen. When he saw Gu Qingchen taking revenge, he thought it was very cute. Therefore, he was in a good mood and accompanied Gu Qingchen.
“Maybe… he thought the way the second madam fell was funny. Or maybe… he thought the fake crying of the second madam was very interesting. He definitely didn’t laugh because grandfather said he would break the second madam’s legs.”
Rong Yu said casually, but every sentence was like a sharp thorn, making it hard for people to breathe.
If people could keep sarcasm in their hearts, everyone could still pretend nothing happened. But once it was exposed, the situation would be awkward.
Especially in this situation, no matter what Rong Rui was laughing for, his smile was inappropriate.
Rong Rui had always given everyone a good impression, positive, open, aboveboard, and liked to help people.
Why would such a person smile at this time?
Was what Rong Rui had been doing all along just an illusion?
The Rong family was sensitive. A simple action or an unintentional word would leave a poor impression on others.
Just like Rong Rui at this moment.
Rong Rui was very depressed at this time. He did not expect Gu Qingchen would suddenly say such a sentence, which caught him a little off guard.
Rong Rui wanted to explain, but Rong Yu’s words made him feel powerless no matter how he explained.
The positive image he had painstakingly built was cracked because of Gu Qingchen and Rong Yu’s words!
One had to know that some cracks could not be repaired in a day or two.
Therefore, it was easy to imagine how much hatred Rong Rui had in his heart.
“Rong Yu! You don’t like anyone here. Humph, now you’re looking for trouble with Brother Rui!” Rong Cheng said furiously.
Gu Qingchen had long despised Rong Cheng in her heart. This idiot was sold by someone and still helped them count their money.
At this time, it was too late to save himself. Rong Cheng actually stood up for Rong Rui stupidly.
Rong Yu did not look at Rong Cheng but looked at Butler Mo. “I’m not breathing well. Clean up those who shouldn’t be here.”
Who shouldn’t be here?
From the looks of it, only Luo Qiaolian was here.
It was because the Rong family had a rule that no woman was allowed when Rong Yu was here!
Luo Qiaolian could stay here for a while. She only being chased away by Rong Yu now was already considered a ground-breaking record.
Butler Mo had always listened to two people. One was Old Master Rong, and the other was Rong Yu.
Especially in this situation where the Rong family was present, he knew which side to stand on.
Even though Rong Yu was not at home all year round and Butler Mo was not close to Rong Yu, he still obeyed orders at critical moments.
Butler Mo walked to Luo Qiaolian and said to her, “Madam, please follow me upstairs.”
Luo Qiaolian lay in Rong Qingtian’s arms. Her small face was full of tears as she looked at Rong Qingtian pitifully.
Rong Qingtian opened his mouth, but when he thought of Rong Yu, he had no choice but to shut up.
It was the Rong family’s rule, and he had no choice.
Old Master Rong was still the one who had the final say in the Rong family!
“Yu’er, we’ll go upstairs with the doctor and let him examine you properly.”
Luo Qiaolian’s heart was filled with hatred!
It was the same every time. Rong Qingtian seemed to dote on her, but when he asked him to choose between Rong Yu and her, he always chose Rong Yu!
“Brother Tian, I was also worried about Young Master Rong, so I rushed out. Young Master Rong’s marriage is a major event for our Rong family. How can we be careless about such a thing? Letting an unknown girl marry into our Rong family will threaten our Rong family!”
Luo Qiaolian knew that if she did not say anything, everything would be set in stone once she went upstairs. It would be too late.
Therefore, even if her entire body was in pain, she could not care less. She had to endure the pain and say it out loud.
“I’ve seen this girl before. When she bumped into me in the supermarket, not only did she not apologize, but she also spoke ill of me. She reversed black and white, and she had a bad attitude. It was obvious that she did not have any upbringing. How could she become the daughter-in-law of our Rong Family? If outsiders find out about this, wouldn’t they laugh at the Rong Family?”
Luo Qiaolian’s words sounded anxious as if she was really concerned about the Rong family.
As for the others, they nodded in agreement because they all had their own thoughts.
Rong Qingtian was already a little dissatisfied with the previous performance, and Gu Qingchen almost made him embarrassed. Therefore, when he heard Luo Qiaolian’s words, he immediately felt that Gu Qingchen was definitely like what Luo Qiaolian said.
“That’s true…” Rong Qingtian muttered, wanting to object to this matter.
Gu Qingchen did not give him the chance to object and said, “Hehe, second madam, I’m afraid that’s not the reason you object to me becoming the daughter-in-law of the Rong family. If I remember correctly, back at the supermarket, you and your niece shamelessly spread rumors in front of everyone. You said that your niece is Rong Yu’s fiancée and will inherit the Rong Group in the future. Could it be that because of my appearance, your beautiful dream has been shattered?”
Gu Qingchen loved to expose people. “Also, it wasn’t me who bumped into you, but you bumped into me. Instead, you arrogantly asked me to apologize. Unfortunately, there are surveillance cameras inside that supermarket. Are you going to let me replay the scene in front of everyone?”
