Chapter 858: Chapter 858: Pregnant (4)

"Miss Guh, the banquet has already started, why are you standing here? Could it be... you’re hungry?" An Yiqing smiled and narrowed her eyes, casting a seemingly casual glance at Huang Yiyi sitting on the ground, "Oh, what’s wrong here? Miss Huang, are you not feeling well? How about I help you to the guest room to rest for a bit?"

An Yiqing spoke with feigned enthusiasm, but her body remained motionless, still standing three meters away from Guh Siyi.

Guh Siyi was a woman with a bit of malevolence about her, an air of venomous energy flowed from her. An Yiqing couldn’t let her guard down.

"No, no need to trouble yourself." Huang Yiyi stuttered in response, her gaze complex as she looked at the smiling An Yiqing. Just a moment ago, at the brink of death, it was this woman she despised to her bones who saved her. Even though Huang Yiyi knew An Yiqing’s help wasn’t genuine, the fact that she owed An Yiqing her life was undeniable.

As for whether or not to return the favor, that was left to her own fate.

"Miss An, Yiyi is my sister, so there’s no need for you to bother. Although it’s Old Master Bai’s birthday today, Miss An has become the most dazzling person at the party, which is truly praiseworthy," Guh Siyi said, glancing briefly at Huang Yiyi before turning to An Yiqing with a cold voice.

"What are you talking about, Miss Guh? I was originally not going to give a gift because I thought it would be inappropriate to duplicate the ’Jade Spirit’ you brought. But after your kind persuasion, I made my humble offering. My being in the spotlight tonight is all thanks to your support," An Yiqing replied politely, nodding her head, her face all innocent smiles, "Also, don’t mind what Tingting and Xiao Xue said earlier. They’re still young and speak without thinking. I have matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first, Miss Guh, please make yourself at home."

Saying this, An Yiqing didn’t wait for Guh Siyi to speak and turned to leave by herself, leaving Guh Siyi alone with a gloomy expression.

Guh Siyi stared venomously at An Yiqing’s retreating figure, feeling as if her liver and lungs were about to explode with rage. She was no fool; she understood perfectly the implication behind An Yiqing’s words!

"Hmph! Talk about the innocence of children! An Yiqing, do you really think I’m a three-year-old?" Guh Siyi snorted unwillingly.

"Cough, cough cough!" Huang Yiyi, who had been sitting on the ground, weakly stood up using the wall for support. Hearing Guh Siyi’s words, her gaze flickered, and she cautiously said, "Sister Siyi, I... I didn’t catch the meaning behind An Yiqing’s words?"

"You didn’t catch it?!" Guh Siyi coldly glanced at Huang Yiyi, "Don’t you know? Children are the most truthful speakers, yet their words are often the hardest to bear, hence the saying ’children speak their minds.’ An Yiqing sure is full of cunning, beating around the bush to insult me!"

Huang Yiyi opened her mouth but then hung her head in silence.

Guh Siyi looked at the silent Huang Yiyi and felt something stir within her. She slowly walked forward and gently patted her shoulder: "Yiyi, I was too impulsive just now and accidentally hurt you. I’ve been at a bottleneck with my self-cultivation recently, and sometimes I don’t control my energy well... It wasn’t intentional on my part to make things difficult for you. You’ve suffered, and for that, I apologize."

Huang Yiyi looked up in surprised gratitude, hardly believing what she heard from Guh Siyi. Although she had known Guh Siyi for many years, in Huang Yiyi’s heart, Guh Siyi had always been an unattainable goddess.

A scion from the Huang Family of Nan City, Huang Yiyi had been pampered and spoiled from birth. Although often spoiled to the point of being unruly and capricious by her father, Huang Xing, ever since she met Guh Siyi, she took her as a role model, always wishing to draw closer to her in every action and gesture.
