Chapter 540: Poisonous Jade
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as Gu Xuexue was about to smugly raise her neck to the sky, a clear sneer suddenly traveled from behind her. “So this is the so-called popular work of Qingyu Xuan? Could it be that the person wearing it feels that he has lived too long?”
Amidst the commotion, this voice seemed especially uncoordinated.
But it also made the rich madams withdraw a little from their fervent emotions.
“Are you tired of living? What do you mean? Are you saying that we’ll become short-lived if we wear these jewelry?”
“Young Lady Qiqi, Qing Yuxuan is your Gu family’s property. Does your family know that you’re saying this?”
“Everyone, listen to Young Lady Qiqi. Perhaps, there’s some inside story behind this?”
“That’s right. What exactly is going on?”
These rich ladies were all smart and quickly smelled something unusual.
Even Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wang, who were fighting over the golden hairpin and jade bracelets, stopped fighting and looked up at Gu Qiqi.
She watched as Gu Qiqi’s casual words negated all her hard work.
Gu Xuexue couldn’t help but feel angry in her heart. She rushed to say, “Sister, you came from the countryside and don’t know jade and jewelry. Don’t mislead everyone here…”
“If Qing Cheng is considered the countryside, then didn’t you just come to the Imperial Capital from Qing Cheng like me this year?”
Gu Qiqi smiled meaningfully.
She ruthlessly exposed Gu Xuexue’s identity. “Oh, perhaps because you’re Gu Meifeng’s daughter, you came to the Imperial Capital with your biological father’s family when you weren’t living with the Gu family in the past? I wonder if your so-called jade knowledge was learned from your biological father?”
Gu Xuexue paled.
For many years, she had minded her own birth the most.
Her disappointing father, Gu Meifeng’s ex-husband, was simply a huge stain on her noble identity.
Fortunately, Gu Meifeng changed her identity card and surname to Gu later on.
The Gu family and the outsiders had been used to calling her the Little Miss of the Gu family for so many years.
She thought that she had successfully cleared her name and become a member of the Gu family.
But she didn’t expect that Gu Qiqi would actually dare to expose her background so publicly in high society circles!
The rich madams around her all revealed looks of understanding that this Miss Xuexue wasn’t a phoenix but a wild chicken. This made her feel even more attacked! She was extremely ashamed!
Gu Qiqi, you d*mned b*tch! You dare to cause trouble like this?!
Her lips trembled and tears of grievance filled her eyes. “Sister, we’re both from the Gu family. Why are you defaming me like this? I was only appointed to serve the ladies because Grandpa felt that I had talent and was suitable for Qing Yuxuan’s business…”
So, Old Master Gu thought highly of Gu Xuexue?
None of the rich madams didn’t know Old Master Gu’s reputation. How sharp were the eyes of such a great scholar?
Everyone couldn’t help but hesitate again. Could it be that Gu Xuexue was somewhat capable? Otherwise, why would Old Master Gu let her participate in such a big business?
Seeing how Gu Xuexue kept flattering herself and even used her grandfather, Gu Qiqi simply wanted to reward her by saying that she had the thickest skin!
However…
There were some things that couldn’t be avoided even if one was thick-skinned!
Gu Qiqi’s eyes turned colder. She laughed coldly and said, “Are you sure that Grandpa thinks that you have talent? Could it be that your talent is selling poisonous jade stones to everyone?”
Poisonous?!
Everyone was shocked and their pupils shrank. They looked at the jade jewelry in their hands..
