Chapter 279: Chapter 279 Qin Fang’s Crooked Thoughts (1)

That night, the story of how Miss Guh Siyi of the Guh Family, five years ago, attempted to drug someone and was caught by Gu Yelin who then broke her wrist and threw her out of the bar, spread like wildfire across Xuandu City and became the talk of the town in every household. Meanwhile, the incident that occurred in the trading hall that afternoon had also been exaggerated and spread around, casting the Guh family in a shamefully negative light.

Guh Family Mansion

"Bang!—" A loud noise erupted from Guh Tian’s study, causing the servant outside to shiver and their heart to tighten in fear.

Inside the study, Guh Tian sat in the master’s seat, his face red with fury, glaring at Guh Siqing who stood before him. A huge handprint was clearly imprinted on the desk beside him, presumably left in his rage.

"You damned fool!" Guh Tian roared like an enraged lion, his fierce glare intensifying as he shouted, "I sent you to attend the Jade Stone Association! But what did you do? You disgraced the Guh Family completely! In just a few hours, you’ve caused so much trouble! Why don’t you just drop dead!" As he spoke, Guh Tian picked up a hardcover book from the desk and savagely threw it at Guh Siqing.

Guh Siqing stood still with her head bowed, rigidly receiving the hardcover book. Its sharp edges inflicted a painful blow to her shoulder, gradually staining her light-colored clothes with a spreading patch of red blood.

"Grandfather, I’m sorry. It was my mistake." Guh Siqing apologized softly, smart enough to know that defying Guh Tian now would lead to no good.

"Sorry? Can an apology restore the Guh Family’s dignity?!" Guh Tian’s anger was not mitigated by his granddaughter’s apology; he banged the desk vigorously, as if the desk were Guh Siqing herself.

"Cough cough... Family Head..." At that moment, Old Zhang, weakly seated in a wheelchair at the side, opened his mouth to speak, "This matter, cough cough... is mainly An Yiqing’s responsibility... You should consider how to deal with the An Family and the Gu Family... cough cough cough..."

After hearing Old Zhang’s words, Guh Tian’s eyes briefly flash a gleam of displeasure and ferocity. He took several deep breaths and forced his raging temper under control. In a low voice, he said, "Old Zhang, you’ve had a tough day. You should go back and rest. Ah Chen, take Old Zhang back."

The door opened, and a middle-aged man clad in black entered the room, bowed respectfully to Guh Tian, and quickly wheeled Old Zhang out without giving him a chance to speak.

Guh Siqing, who had kept her head down the whole time, listened to the sound of the wheelchair receding and her cold black eyes briefly revealed a trace of mockery.

After Old Zhang had left, Guh Tian cast an impatient glance at Guh Siqing and warned her, "Listen to me! Tomorrow, Ah Chen will follow you! You better be fully alert. If you cause any more trouble, you’ll be severely punished!"

"Yes, Grandfather." Guh Siqing’s heart tightened as she obediently nodded and responded.

Leaving Guh Tian’s study, Guh Siqing’s complexion was pale, and her forehead was covered in a dense layer of sweat beads. She winced as she moved her injured shoulder, painstakingly making her way down from the third floor.

At the corner of the stairs on the second floor, a tall and upright figure stood as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Guh Siqing looked up and saw Guh Siqi with a smirk, but she did not speak and simply walked past him.

"Second sister, being scolded by the old man doesn’t feel good, does it?" Guh Siqi spoke in a carefree tone, his voice filled with schadenfreude.

Guh Siqing paused her steps, stiffened her spine, and said icily, "What does it have to do with you! Guh Siqi, just content yourself with being a playboy!" Having said that, Guh Siqing strode away quickly.
