Chapter 463: Shameless, Despicable and Lowly
Chapter 463: Chapter 463: Shameless, Despicable and Lowly
The crowd craned their heads to look inside, where two figures were rolling around on a Thousand Workmanship Step-on Bed with semi-transparent bed curtains, their forms barely visible.
Although they couldn’t see clearly, it was certain there was a man and a woman.
With a loud noise, the movement stopped.
"It really is them!"
"It seems Miss Guan isn’t as chaste and old-fashioned as the rumors suggest, she truly indulges in her pleasures in private. But Mr. Guan is really making too big a fuss, why make it embarrassing for young people?"
They whispered their conversations, especially interested in this scandalous gossip.
Lu Yan watched the drama unfold with leisure.
"No! That’s not Miss Guan inside, look over there!"
With a shriek from the crowd, everyone turned to see two women with graceful figures slowly approaching along the bamboo pathway. They looked enchantingly beautiful under the hazy moon, as if they were figures in a painting.
The smile on Lu Yan’s face disappeared suddenly, his expression contorted and turning ashen!
Miss Guan, holding Qiao Xi’s hand, approached curiously and asked, "What is everyone doing outside my bedroom door? Grandfather, are you looking for me?"
"Atan, you..." Mrs. Guan’s eyes brimmed with tears, all her suspicions fading upon seeing her daughter.
Miss Guan turned her head and caught sight of the blurry figures inside the bed, covering her mouth in shock and exclaimed, "What’s going on here? Who’s sleeping in my bed!"
The onlookers nodded; yes, they too wished to know what was going on!
If the main characters of the gossip weren’t present, who were the man and woman hiding inside the bed?
How shameless to be rolling around in someone else’s bed, it must be so urgent they couldn’t even wait until the party ended to go to a hotel.
Miss Guan hurried forward and threw back the curtains.
Revealing the scene on the bed.
The bed, all wrinkled from the tossing, and Xiang Ze reeking of desperation as he hurriedly dressed, a strange woman covered her face and dashed out amidst the chaos!
Miss Guan incredulously confronted him, "Xiang Ze! How could you be in my bed... You are crazy!"
"Shameless! Filthy and cheap!"
Mr. Guan sneered coldly, "Everyone watch closely, see who really has no shame? The Xiang family doing such shameless acts during my birthday party, do they not regard the Guan family at all?"
Xiang Ze sat on the edge of the bed, fists clenched, teeth grinding loudly.
He was so close to succeeding!
But unfortunately, he lost consciousness and woke up to find himself in bed with a woman.
With things having reached this point, he knew he had been cleverly set up!
There was no use saying anything now! Caught red-handed in adultery, utterly indefensible!
Xiang Ze’s brooding gaze fell on Miss Guan beside Qiao Xi.
It must have been this woman who spoiled his plans!
He had always said, Haicheng women may seem gentle and beautiful, but they are manipulative!
Mr. Guan coldly stared at him, "Get down here now! You think the Xiang family can still propose an alliance with our Guan family? You are delusional! Xiang Ze, you are not worthy even to carry shoes for my granddaughter! Get out!"
"Housekeeper, throw him out!"
Xiang Ze picked up his suit pants and couldn’t find his belt as he stiffly said, "I’ll leave on my own! No need for you to drive me out."
Miss Guan looked down, wiping her eyes with her hand, pleading, "Wait, Grandfather, don’t drive him away yet! I have something to say to him."
She walked toward the disheveled Xiang Ze and softly said, "Xiang Ze, this Thousand Workmanship Step-on Bed was a gift from my grandfather for my twentieth birthday, worth twenty million. Since you’ve ruined it, and since you like this bed so much... I might as well sell it to you."
Xiang Ze, furious, bit his tongue; the taste of blood filled his mouth.
His reputation completely destroyed!
And now to be asked to pay out twenty million for nothing?
Qiao Xi’s eyes twinkled with mischief as she held Miss Guan’s hand and chimed in, "Xiang Ze, when you dirty someone else’s belongings, you should compensate for it! Don’t you think I’m right?"
The usually calm Xiang Ze, his eyes bloodshot, replied, "You’re right! Absolutely right! It’s just a bed, after all!"
"Xiang Ze is so generous."
Mr. Guan’s lips curled slightly, his stern face softening, "Someone, send this Thousand Workmanship Step-on Bed to the Xiang Family. Cash on delivery! Explain the situation to the Family Head of the Xiang Family and tell them that from now on, our Guan Family won’t dare to invite the Xiang Family to our birthday banquets."
Xiang Ze almost suffocated, "I have other matters, I must leave!"
He hastened his steps and swiftly turned to leave.
Lu Yan followed with a sinister expression, shooting Qiao Xi a venomous glare as if he were a viper.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, her almond eyes calm.
If others wrong her, she would repay them.
Lu Yan and Xiang Ze, birds of a feather flock together—none of them good!
The drama ended.
With the scandal’s main characters gone, the onlooking crowd had their fill of excitement.
Tonight was truly an eye-opener, Xiang Ze turning a birthday party into a bed-rolling event.
In a word, outrageous!
Surely, the news would spread across the entire Imperial Capital soon, and it would be difficult for Xiang Ze to marry into a noble family afterward.
Mr. Guan addressed the crowd, "Sorry to have brought you all here for nothing. Today’s meal was prepared by a royal chef. Please, everyone, move to the main hall for the banquet."
He gave the butler a knowing look.
The old butler then led the servants to escort the guests back to the banquet hall.
In the bedroom.
The remaining people all breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Guan could no longer keep her composure, hugging Guan Jingtan as she cried, "What exactly happened tonight? I was terrified, Lu Yan assured me that you were with Xiang Ze, even causing everyone to come and see. If they had succeeded, I know you would have been devastated."
Guan Jingtan had always abided by her ancestors’ teachings, a dignified and self-disciplined lady, but also stubborn.
She would rather die than be humiliated.
With teary eyes, Guan Jingtan choked up, "I was drugged, and Xiang Ze was dragging me back to the bedroom. It was all Qiao Xi who saved me; her people knocked out Xiang Ze and helped me stage this scene. I guessed Xiang Ze would have a backup plan, sure enough, a bunch of people came to catch us in the act. He brought this upon himself!"
She was somewhat scared afterward.
Mrs. Guan, with tearful eyes, turned to Qiao Xi, the graceful and reserved woman who knelt before her, "Thank you for saving my daughter despite our past conflicts. I was too impulsive before, I hope you can forgive me."
Qiao Xi quickly stepped aside, "I can’t accept this."
An elder kneeling to her could shorten her lifespan!
Qiao Xi helped her up, softly saying, "When I entered, Young Master Guan was chasing me. Lu Yan and Xiang Ze were also there; I guess they wanted to deliberately stir up a conflict between me and the Guan Family. You might want to ask Young Master Guan later if you can find any clues."
"Such audacity!"
Mr. Guan smashed a vase next to him in anger, "To plot against my own granddaughter at my birthday celebration. They must think my Guan Family is doomed to decline, such excessive bullying!"
He also felt a surge of despair.
If he died, the Guan Family would be finished.
He had to live, having just celebrated his seventieth birthday.
He had to make it through eighty, ninety!
Faced with the plight of the Guan Family, Qiao Xi had no good solutions.
He turned to Qiao Xi, asking, "Miss Qiao, do you have any Miraculous Pills and Magical Medicine for a long life?"
Qiao Xi looked at him awkwardly, "I don’t."
The old man smacked his lips, "What a pity. After all the commotion tonight, there’s no rush. Come with me to the front and enjoy the banquet."
Unable to decline the kind invitation, Qiao Xi nodded. There was already a delay, no rush to go home searching for things now.
Perhaps the Imperial Capital’s royal dishes would taste better than those in Haicheng?
