Godly Empress Doctor

However, old Mrs. Gu didn’t realize what her daughter-in-law was trying to do. She smiled and said, “There’s no rush. Please get some rest. We have a great banquet for you tonight.”

Chaoge’s eyes widened.

Seriously?!

The old lady was so stubborn!

Had it not been for Mrs. Gu, the old lady would have been utterly humiliated. However, she still wouldn’t give up.

Chaoge looked at Feng Wu, who shrugged at her.

Old Mrs. Gu smiled at Feng Wu and rubbed her hair when she walked past her. “Xiao Wu, you haven’t been here for quite some time, and I see that you’re not as familiar with us as before. You’ll get used to it after you stay here for a few days. It was Feng Qi’s fault just then, and she almost incriminated you. As her older cousin, you should talk to her more often. I’ll be much more reassured if the two of you can get along well.”

After that, she left with Granny Zhu.

The crowd scattered as well, and Chaoge was the only one who looked like she had just been struck by lightning.

She had gone very stiff.

She only let out her breath when they were shown to their own room.

“OMG!”

Chaoge let out a breath of relief.

“I can’t believe how shameless that old woman is! She just won’t be defeated!”

Chaoge sat down and started complaining. “I can’t stand her little speech!

“She actually asked you to stay here for a few days, as if you haven’t run into enough danger here!

“And she said that you and Feng Qi should get along with each other. Doesn’t she know how many grudges you have against each other?”

Chaoge moved her chair closer to Feng Wu and said, “Xiao Wu, I just don’t get it.”

Feng Wu said, “What?”

Chaoge said, “It’s so obvious that the old lady is trying to kill you, and so is Lady Gu. Lady Wang is probably on their side as well. Mrs. Dugu and Mrs. Zuo are up to no good either. This place is so evil. Can’t we leave now?”

Feng Wu chuckled. “Why?”

Chaoge said, “Because…”

Feng Wu said, “Did I lose the first round back there?”

Chaoge shook her head.

It had been very dangerous, but as it turned out, that Spiritual Fossil Stone had been found on Tao Qingqing. With so many people in the room, word would get out eventually, and Tao Qingqing’s reputation…

“Tao Qingqing called you frivolous, but she was caught with that stone. That’s karma,” said Chaoge.

Feng Wu said, “Karma had nothing to do with it.”

Chaoge said, “What do you mean?”

Feng Wu said, “It was me.”

Chaoge had speculated that Feng Wu had done something. She burst out laughing after Feng Wu admitted it.

“I knew that it couldn’t be just a coincidence! Xiao Wu, you’re wicked! You put the bracelet on Feng Qi as well, didn’t you?”

Feng Wu said, “That’s right.. I was worried that the old lady wouldn’t admit it, so I crushed the bracelet beforehand, but I made it look fine on the outside.”
