Chu He was stunned.
“Mom, I’m your daughter,” Gu Mei struck while the iron was hot. “No matter how much we fight, you’re my beloved mother. I won’t allow Gu Qingcheng to insult you.
“Mu Xia is dead, and you and your father, Gu Tianhao, got married openly. You are not a mistress; you are my beloved mother. Mom, now that Gu Qingcheng has humiliated us, even if you don’t expose anything for me, you have to teach
Gu Qingcheng a lesson for the sake of your dignity.”
Chu He stared at Gu Mei with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
“Xiao Mei, you’re not pretending just to force Mom to expose Gu Qingcheng, are you?”
Gu Mei stared at her mother in disbelief.
She had really slept with five men!
“Mom, how can you doubt me?” she protested. “I’m telling the truth!” she roared hysterically. “Gu Qingcheng, that slut, even said that she would kill you and cut you into pieces. She even pushed you down in front of her mother’s grave, kowtowing and apologizing to her mother.”
Chu He could not bear to hear Mu Xia’s name. When she heard Mu Xia’s name, her eyes burned with anger.
“Gu Qingcheng, that witch!”
“Do you have to sacrifice your daughter to threaten Gu Qingcheng?” Gu Mei questioned Chu He angrily. “She sent someone to rape me, and you didn’t do anything? How long can you threaten me with that? Gu Qingcheng wasn’t a fool. When she found a chance to retaliate, the evidence in your hands would be useless.”
Chu He did not know how to respond to Gu Mei for a moment.
Gu Qingcheng was holding a video of Gu Mei and Qin Jun having sex.
Besides, Gu Qingcheng was a powerful woman. Gu Mei was tricked last night. Would she be recorded again?
She had to think about it carefully before deciding whether to expose Gu Qingcheng’s weakness.
Otherwise, if she exposed Gu Qingcheng’s weakness, Gu Qingcheng would expose all of Gu Mei’s videos.
There was only one outcome to this infighting—both sides would suffer.
NO!
She and Gu Qingcheng had both suffered heavy losses, and she was the one who had suffered even more.
Her daughter, Gu Mei, had been trained by her to be a lady from a prestigious family since she was young. She was as pure as ice and as pure as jade. She did not have a boyfriend and was still a virgin who emitted a fragrant fragrance.
Once the video of Gu Mei and all kinds of men fooling around was made public, her daughter would be ruined, and she would never be able to turn over a new leaf. She would also forget about marrying into a good family.
She would also be laughed at by the wealthy ladies, and it would be impossible for her to stand in the circle of wealthy ladies in the future.
Gu Qingcheng’s move was really ruthless!
She just wanted to control Gu Qingcheng, and Gu Qingcheng wanted her and Gu Mei dead!
Regarding Gu Mei’s matter, she had to either suffer in silence or endure it.
She and Gu Qingcheng could either expose their secrets to each other and fight to the death, and she and her daughter would never be able to get out of this alive. At most, Gu Qingcheng would be skinned.
After weighing the pros and cons, she had a low blood loss!
Gu Qingcheng was so ruthless!
“Mom!” Seeing that Chu He didn’t say anything, Gu Mei grabbed Chu He’s clothes. “Make it public! Make it public that Gu Qingcheng has something on her! I’ll kill this witch once and for all!”
Chu He calmed her heart. “Xiao Mei, don’t get too emotional. I’ll get the doctor to check on you when you go home and then nurse your body. Don’t worry, I won’t forgive Gu Qingcheng.”
“If we can’t, we’ll expose Gu Qingcheng.” Gu Mei’s only way to deal with Gu Qingcheng was to use her mother, Chu He, as leverage. “Gu Qingcheng will definitely pay,” she urged Chu He.
“Don’t worry,” Chu He comforted Gu Mei. “I know what to do. Don’t worry.”
Gu Mei did not hear Chu He’s affirmation. She was angry and anxious. She was so angry that she fainted before she could catch her breath.
Chu He was scared out of her wits. She quickly returned to the Gu family and hired a private doctor to check Gu Mei’s body.
When the doctor finished his examination and found out that Gu Mei’s body was severely torn, she was filled with hatred.
She must have wanted to expose Gu Qingcheng to her daughter, Gu Mei, for revenge.
But now, Gu Qingcheng was holding a knife to her throat, and she couldn’t make it public even if she wanted to.
NO!
She couldn’t afford to suffer in silence. She had to find a way to take revenge on Gu Qingcheng.
“Men. ”
“What instructions does Madam have?”
Chu He thought for a moment. “Go and invite Qin Chong over. Remember not to let Master Gu Tianhao know about this. I want to meet Qin Chong alone.”
“Yes, Madam.”
Chu He’s eyes flashed with viciousness. “Gu Qingcheng, just you wait! I’m going to bring you down, you witch!”
It was already evening when Gu Qingcheng woke up.
She opened her eyes and saw Huo Sicheng’s handsome face close to hers. His eyes gazed at her gently, warming her heart.
“Hubby, when did you wake up?”
As she spoke, she leaned in and kissed Huo Sicheng’s lips gently.
“I’ve been awake for a while,” Huo Sicheng replied softly. “I couldn’t sleep well. Kept waking up.’
“Hmm?” Gu Qingcheng was surprised. “What’s on your mind?”
Huo Sicheng reached out to caress Gu Qingcheng’s face. “Nothing specific. Maybe I’ve been sleeping too much these past few days.”
“It might be a good idea to see the doctor for a checkup,” Gu Qingcheng suggested. “Should we call the doctor to come here or go to the hospital?”
“You don’t have to cook tonight,” Huo Sicheng said, stopping Gu Qingcheng from getting out of bed. “Look at those bruises under your nails. It’s been a while since your altercation with Chu He. What did you do to sustain so many injuries? Aren’t you afraid your nails will fall off?”
Gu Qingcheng looked at her bruised fingers, realizing she had used too much force in her punches.
“I’ve been practicing boxing,” she explained. “I just hurt my hand.”
“Boxing?” Huo Sicheng frowned. “You really don’t take care of yourself. Why would you fight when you’re still recovering?”
Gu Qingcheng was about to respond with anger but held back. She had promised herself not to be mean to Huo Sicheng, so she took a deep breath.
“My body is almost fully recovered,” she assured Huo Sicheng. “I’ve been doing boxing exercises. When I return to the Peach Lotus Cup, I’ll also get back to dancing.”
Huo Sicheng noticed the change in Gu Qingcheng’s expression and realized she had been patient with him.
“After sleeping all day, we woke up in the evening,” he said with a smile.
“Alright.”
As Gu Qingcheng stepped out of her room, her eyes brightened upon seeing Huo Xuan in his school uniform, holding a laptop.
“My precious son.”
Huo Xuan looked up, his eyes sparkling, and he rushed into Gu Qingcheng’s arms.
“Mommy.”
Gu Qingcheng embraced Huo Xuan warmly. “Oh, my precious Xuan, you’re back from school.”
“Yeah,” Huo Xuan happily handed the laptop to the butler, Grandpa Zhao, and wrapped his arms around his mother’s neck. “Mom, did you miss me?”
“Of course, I did,” Gu Qingcheng said with joy. “Dad and I missed you too.”
Huo Xuan looked at his father standing behind his mother and asked, “Daddy, did you miss me?”
Huo Sicheng felt a pang of jealousy seeing how happy Gu Qingcheng was to see
Huo Xuan.
“Yes, I did,” he replied, trying not to sound too sour.
Huo Xuan grinned at his father and whispered something into Gu Qingcheng’s ear.
Gu Qingcheng was stunned by Huo Xuan’s words. The next moment, she put Huo Xuan down and turned to look at Huo Sicheng with surprise in her eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Huo Sicheng asked.
Gu Qingcheng looked at him.. “Honey, do you know what our son just said to me?”
