155-156

Chapter 155: Beautiful And Kind Mrs. Gu

The doctors all frowned. They were all doctors from the Medical Association. Madam Gu still had to rely on them to come to the Gu family to treat her illness, so there were some things that they had to say.

“Madam Gu, you’re maligning others for your own benefits. This is the Gu family’s matter and we can’t interfere, but we’re very busy. We can use this time to save a few more patients. We don’t have time to waste with you!”

Another doctor was dissatisfied as well. “If you want to frame Mrs. Gu and chase her out of the Gu family, you have to do a better job at it. However, there are too many loopholes. Do you think we’re all fools?”

Seeing that the situation was not looking good, the butler said in a low voice, “Madam, you’re the one who’s in the wrong here. If you don’t explain… You know what Young Master’s temper is like. Before he gets angry, quickly apologize. No matter what, Young Master is your son. He won’t say anything. Otherwise, it won’t be so simple when the matriarch comes to handle it.”

Madam Gu gritted her teeth in anger.

They wanted her to apologize to Qiao Xi?

What was going on?!

Gu Zheng was her son. So what if she had wrongly accused Qiao Xi?

It had to be known that it was treason to attack one’s own mother!

Madam Gu knew that if she apologized now, Gu Zheng would not pursue the matter. After all, she was the madam of the Gu family.

Even if Gu Zheng was unwilling to let this matter go, as her daughter-in-law, Qiao Xi had to show her, the mother-in-law, some respect.

In the end, Madam Gu gritted her teeth. “Miss Qiao, I made a mistake.”

Qiao Xi shook her head weakly and innocently. “Forget it, Madam Gu. I know you hate me, and I’ve forgiven you. This matter is over.”

The surrounding people discussed softly and praised Qiao Xi for her beauty and kind heart.

Shen Ying gritted her teeth. Qiao Xi was beautiful but kind-hearted?

Shen Ying was in disbelief. She had been poisoned and was about to be disfigured!

How did she end up becoming the criminal who poisoned herself, while Qiao Xi became the target of everyone’s praise?

Was this not the opposite of how things should be?

“Miss Shen, what are you thinking about? Are you unable to accept it?” Qiao Xi took the opportunity to walk to Shen Ying’s side and asked in a low voice.

“I was locked in a dark room by you guys. If Gu Zheng hadn’t run back to save me, I would’ve definitely been punished by the family law. And I’d be the one disfigured!

“You tried to harm me but you got yourself disfigured in the end. This is called giving someone a taste of their own medicine!”

Shen Ying was so angry that her whole body was trembling. She roared in her heart.

“Ah!

However, she did not dare to open her mouth because no one would believe her.

In the end, she could only watch helplessly as Qiao Xi plastered a smile on her face and left the room hand in hand with Gu Zheng.

After leaving, Gu Zheng looked at her casually. “Why did the doctors say that they came in contact with the poison four hours ago?”

As Madam Gu, Madam Wang, and Shen Ying were poisoned four hours ago, they would definitely not suspect Qiao Xi.
