“Ling ni is too much and unreasonable. How could she splash tea on my face?” Gu shuling looked at Gu Chen.”Father, you have to give me an explanation. Otherwise, how am I supposed to face others in the future?”

Gu Chen’s face darkened.”They really went too far. Don’t worry. I will definitely make her apologize to you.”

Although the Ling family was powerful, the Gu family was not to be trifled with.

He comforted Gu shuling with a few words.

“Thank you, Daddy. I knew that you’re the best to me.” As Gu shuling spoke, she looked like she was about to cry. Zhu Yulu quickly comforted her,””Don’t cry, don’t cry. It’ll affect the wound. ”

Hearing this, Gu shuling quickly stopped crying and only whimpered a few times.

Gu Chen was quite a Big Shot in Beijing. Gu shuling was his stepdaughter. Ling NI’s splash was not only a slap to Gu shuling’s face, but also Gu Chen’s face.

Of course, the Ling family could not pretend that nothing had happened.

Especially with Mr. Ling’s recent promotion, the circle of the rich and powerful in the capital was deeply rooted and intertwined. At this time, it was natural that no scandals could be created.

The next day, Mr. Ling dragged Ling ni to the Gu family to apologize. Ling ni was still very arrogant, and she apologized unwillingly.

“Isn’t your face fine?” she muttered.”You’re not disfigured. Why are you pretending to be so delicate?”

Gu shuling’s eyes were red and she quickly said,””That was because the tea wasn’t that hot. If it were to burn my face again, I would definitely be disfigured.”

“If you didn’t try to drive a wedge between us and use me to kill Yu Gangan, why would I have poured it on you?” Ling ni told Gu Chen everything that Gu shuling had said the other day.

Gu Chen’s expression darkened as he listened.

Kill Yu Gangan? This stepdaughter suddenly gave him a very strange feeling.

Even if Yu Gangan lost in love and ended up with Fang zhihan, she shouldn’t have been so ruthless as to kill someone.

Or was there another reason for her to kill Yu Gangan apart from her relationship with Fang zhihan?

Gu shuling’s eyes widened and she explained in a panic,””How am I trying to drive a wedge between us? I promised dad that I would never be with Fang zhihan again. You like Fang zhihan and I think you two are a good match. But, I only said that because I couldn’t accept my loss to Yu Gangan and because you’re better in my heart.”

“Thank you,” Ling ni chuckled.

Then, she looked at father Ling and said,””Dad, I’ve already apologized.”

Mr. Ling looked at her sternly and felt his heart ache. If it wasn’t for Gu Chen and Fang zhihan’s special relationship, he wouldn’t have brought his daughter here. What was one Gu shuling to him?

Holding back his displeasure, father Ling said a few polite words to Gu Chen and left with Ling ni. He didn’t even glance at Gu shuling.

Gu shuling watched as Ling ni left arrogantly and shouted at Gu Chen,””Dad, they’re so insincere.”

Gu Chen looked at her and asked with mixed feelings,””Then what do you want?”

These words made Gu shuling’s face turn red in disbelief. The other half of her face was naturally red, but she couldn’t turn white. She frowned and shouted,””Dad …”

“Why did you say those things to Ling ni?” Gu Chen coldly asked.

Gu shuling quickly explained,”I was really just angry, so I casually said a few things. You know how much I like Fang zhihan. I just wanted to make things difficult for Yu Gangan. I didn’t say anything about killing her.”
