Chapter 386: Chapter 391: Disfigured!
Beiming Shasha was still crying when a middle-aged woman dressed in regal garb entered. Upon seeing her, Beiming Shasha’s crying escalated, screaming, “Mommy, save ! I’ve been disfigured! It hurts so much.”
Rong Pinyan looked at her daughter’s scalded face, a harsh glint flashing in her eyes. She quickly directed, “Get a doctor, Shasha stop crying and rinse with cold water first.”
“Mommy, you have to take my side. It’s all because of this woman surnad Gu.” Beiming Shasha twisted the facts.
Rong Pinyan turned to Gu Qingxin and asked coldly, “Who invited you? Your na isn’t on the guest list for today.”
Gu Qingxin found Rong Pinyan sowhat admirable; despite being furious, she was keen to establish Gu’s identity before deciding how to deal with her.
“The old man invited .” At this point, Gu Qingxin had to ntion her powerful backer or risk Rong Pinyan’s wrath.
Sure enough, on hearing that Gu Qingxin was invited by Beiming Lingyun, Rong Pinyan was montarily taken aback. If she was a guest invited by her father, Rong could not act impulsively.
“What’s going on here? Why all the commotion?” Beiming Lingyun entered. Soone had just inford him that soone was giving Gu Qingxin a hard ti.
She was a guest he’d invited; he couldn’t just let her be ill-treated here.
“Father, it’s just a little disagreent among the children. Shasha got lightly injured.” Rong Pinyan walked over, intending to assist her father.
“Grandfather, you have to stand up for ! This… woman disfigured .” Beiming Shasha ran out pointing at her still flushed face. She was supposed to perform later; how was she supposed to face others looking like this?
“Oh, I’d like to hear how this young lady got you disfigured. Where did this hot thing that scalded you co from?” Beiming Lingyun looked indifferently at his granddaughter. On seeing Gu Qingxin, he paused.
Seeing Gu Qingxin in a cheongsam gave him a feeling of familiarity…
“I was doing her a kind favor by giving her soup, but she didn’t appreciate it and it all ended up on .” Beiming Shasha’s cries brought Beiming Lingyun’s gaze back.
“It’s hardly alti; you should not have ddled with the guests with your soup. It’s nonsense!” Beiming Lingyun knew it was his granddaughter who had started this ss.
“Grandpa…how can you take her side over your own granddaughter’s!” Beiming Shasha was stamping her foot in frustration.
“How audacious! Look at yourself! Go to your room and reflect on your actions. Apologize to your grandfather when you understand your mistake – otherwise, don’t co out!” Rong Pinyan angrily poked her daughter’s forehead.
“Mommy…” Beiming Shasha was resentful. Even her mother was scolding her now.
“Go!” Rong Pinyan pushed her daughter out.
Only then did Beiming Lingyun turn to Gu Qingxin and ask, “Qingxin, are you okay? My truculent granddaughter didn’t hurt you, did she?”
Gu Qingxin shook her head, “I’m fine.”
“That’s good. If my useless granddaughter dares to bother you again, feel free to discipline her on my behalf.”
Gu Qingxin, “….”
“Qingxin, I want to askyou sothing. Are your parents still alive?” Beiming Lingyun felt unsettled unless he asked.
“They’re still alive.” Gu Qingxin didn’t understand why the old man would suddenly ask about this.
“Oh, good. They’re still alive. I’ll have Lieyan accompany you today. We have many guests, so if there’s any neglect, please don’t take it to heart.”
“I won’t.”
