Chapter 314: Chapter 314: All Teeth Knocked Out (3)

Everyone turned their heads upon hearing this, just to see Guh Siqing turning to leave, and they all understood immediately.

Soft murmurs began spreading through the crowd.

"This Second Miss Guh really can’t afford to play, can she? She wants to run after losing. If she had won, she would probably have been insufferably arrogant!"

"Exactly! She thinks she’s so great just because she’s a Miss Guh? She’s nothing more than someone born into a good family!"

"Tsk, tsk! Have you noticed? Miss An is exceedingly beautiful and has a gentle demeanor. Even without the An Family, she established Yuyuanzhai on her own. This is what you call exceptional ability, she truly deserves to be called the First Miss of Xuandu City. That Miss Guh, aside from her identity as a member of the Guh Family, what else has she got? There’s no way she can be compared to Miss An!"

"Yes, yes. After observing for a few days, it’s clear that Miss Guh is far inferior to Miss An!"

The incessant gossip swirled around Guh Siqing like a curse, making her feel extremely humiliated, and she wished she could slap all those tongue-waggers right now!

All of this was caused by An Yiqing! Rage burned hotter and hotter in Guh Siqing’s heart. She suddenly turned around, her eyes shooting daggers at An Yiqing as she exclaimed loudly, "I am the Second Miss of the Guh Family! An Yiqing, do you really expect me to apologize? You dare to antagonize the Guh Family!"

Guh Siqing’s words were blatant and unbridled. Relying on the backing of the Guh Family, she dared to renounce her debt in broad daylight in front of so many distinguished guests!

The looks in everyone’s eyes shifted from stunned to shocked, and then from shocked to disdain. The changing gazes made Guh Siqing’s face burn with shame; she had never been humiliated like this before!

Consequently, Guh Siqing’s gaze toward An Yiqing grew even colder.

Looking at Guh Siqing as if she wished to devour her, An Yiqing smiled faintly and said softly, "Second Miss Guh! Although I have not met the Patriarch of the Guh Family, as one of the Xuandu Five Great Families, I believe Elder Guh’s magnanimity would not be so petty. It’s simply a contest between the younger generation, I don’t think Elder Guh would take it to heart. However, Miss Guh, one should keep their word, losing means losing. With the contract in black and white and your signature and seal, do you still want to deny it?"

As she spoke, An Yiqing took out the gambling contract and with a "slap" threw it on the table.

Guh Siqing was left speechless by An Yiqing’s words, not knowing how to respond. Indeed, as An Yiqing said, if Guh Tian dealt with this matter, people would gossip in secret, and the Guh Family would find it difficult to maintain its standing in Xuandu City. After all, it’s just a bet between the young generation. If the elders intervened, it would certainly leave a stain on their reputation.

But then Guh Siqing thought, as the second of the Ancient Martial Arts Families among the five great families, how could the Guh Family be compared to an ordinary house like the An Family? In her eyes, only the Gu Family was fit to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Guh Family, and only Gu Yelin was worthy of herself, Guh Siqing! As for the likes of the An and Bai and Qin Families, they were but a flock without a shepherd!

With this in mind, a smug smile appeared on Guh Siqing’s face. She glanced at An Yiqing with contempt and said disdainfully, "So what if I signed and sealed it? The Guh Family, as a family of ancient martial arts, is not something your trifling An Family can afford to offend. If you know what’s good for you, An Yiqing, you’d let me go immediately. We can void this gambling contract, and I might as well not hold it against you!"

No sooner had Guh Siqing’s words fallen than a collective gasp arose from the spectators. Everyone was at a loss to grasp the reasoning of the Second Miss of the Guh Family—how could she articulate such shameless words so self-righteously? What did she mean by "trifling An Family"? As the Second Miss from the Guh Family main house, her vision was so narrow! Despite being an Ancient Martial Arts Family, the Guh Family was still a novice in this field. It was only at the end of the Qing dynasty that the Guh Family’s ancestor had a stroke of fortune and rose to prominence. Although the An Family did not practice ancient martial arts, their ancestors were well-known nobles in ancient times, and their connections and influence today are unimaginable! If not for the incident of the lost baby that led Elder An and An Zisheng to keep a low profile, who exactly would occupy the position of Xuandu City’s second greatest family was still up for debate! Where did Guh Siqing get the confidence to call the An Family a mere minor clan!
