Chapter 213: Gu Zhenkang’s Detest
Not daring to speak, Mrs. Gu glared at her, as if she were going to kill her if she ever spilled a single word.
Mrs. Gu might have been scary in the past because the old Gu Chaoyan used to be timid, not daring to do anything against anyone. However, Gu Chaoyan at the moment was not afraid of Mrs. Gu at all. She was just a minor person in her eyes.
Calmly, she turned to Madame Gu who was seated in the top seat and said, “Well, the business in Yellow Crane has been doing well so there were no empty seats available. But Auntie Gu insisted on taking the elegant room so she made a huge fuss at Yellow Crane. Manager Song had no choice but to show her to the elegant room, so that they could ask if the guests inside could spare the seats.”
“...”
“But Mrs. Zheng was inside the elegant room. She is the wife of the chief of the Ministry of Personnel!”
“...”
“Mrs. Zheng got very angry when she was asked to move in the middle of her meal.”
“...”
“So she got her maids to slap Auntie Gu yet she was still angry... So she asked her guards to toss her out of Yellow Crane.”
“...”
“Mrs. Zheng was still very angry when Auntie Gu was tossed. Lord Huai can help Yellow Crane, but the Gu Mansion has no one to turn to... so...”
As she was speaking, Gu Chaoyan showed a worried expression and threw a sneaky look at Madame Gu.
Hearing the story, Madame Gu understood clearly that Mrs. Gu had caused a huge trouble! She had irritated Mrs. Zheng and her guards had thrown her out! And she was here begging her for help! She was saying that Chaoyan was bullying her! She said that it had been the waiters of Yellow Crane who had tossed her out!
“Mrs. Gu!” Madam Gu’s face sank as she bellowed. They could not afford to offend anyone from the Zheng Mansion! How dare Mrs. Gu do such a thing! Ruxue had not yet gotten married to Lord Ling, and now she had caused such a big trouble!
Hearing this, she realized that something was wrong. This b.i.t.c.h was not in the restaurant at that time, how did she know about that? And she knew every single detail of it!
Also, Mrs. Zheng had tossed her out of the restaurant and her anger was vented. She could not have been so narrow-minded a lady, could she?
Mrs. Gu snapped. “Madame Gu, don’t believe this b.i.t.c.h’s story! That was not what happened! It was her waiter who tossed me out! There was no Mrs. Zheng. Yes, Mrs. Zheng was eating at the restaurant, but I did not offend her!”
Mrs. Gu found this excuse more and more reasonable.
Mrs. Zheng had vented her anger. She was the wife of the chief of the Ministry of Personnel, and she was not going to dig into this minor affair at all. She could dodge her whenever she ran into her in the future, and soon she would forget about this incident.
Also, when Ruxue married Lord Ling this Mrs. Zheng was not going to offend her because of her relations.h.i.+p with Lord Ling!
As she thought about this Mrs. Gu turned very firm in her tone. “This b.i.t.c.h is trying to get rid of the punishment, so she is making up lies!” Then she looked wronged as if tears were at the edge of rolling down. “I am not living an easy life here! I have been running errands for the Gu Mansion these years and taking care of this kid, but now she is trying to set me up just because I did not give birth to her!” she said as she tried to wipe the tears with the handkerchief.
Hearing this, Gu Zhenkang believed Mrs. Gu directly as he patted Mrs. Gu’s shoulders and said, “Sorry, I am so sorry.”
Then he turned a disdainful look at Gu Chaoyan.
This eldest daughter of his was so stinky with the air of a businesswoman. She made up lies too! How could she ever be qualified to become the lineal daughter of the mansion?!
