Chapter 232: Chapter 232: A Scheming Child (2)
An indescribable chill welled up in Cheng Qingyun’s heart.
It was obvious that the scheming Old Master Song was already suspicious.
Cheng Qingyun broke out in cold sweat.
Old Master Song was once an influential figure, leading the Song family to carve out a bloody path in the battle for supremacy in the capital and solidifying his position as the overlord of the entertainment industry! Such a powerful and powerful figure, yet just now, she actually had the audacity to want to murder him.
Old Master Song probably already had his suspicions.
Rather than being searched by Old Master Song, it was better to directly confess. Cheng Qingyun thought for a moment and explained with a smile, “Chuchu, be careful. This is my eyebrow trimmer. It’s very sharp. I was in a hurry when I went out in the afternoon, so it might’ve gotten stuck in my clothes.”
Gu Chu almost laughed out loud when she heard that.
How could you make up such a lame excuse?
However, Gu Chu did not intend to use the blade to convict Cheng Qingyun completely. She just needed to make sure that Grandpa Song was on guard. She did not want the tragedy from the novel to repeat itself where a fierce and powerful man was fooled by a vicious woman and died miserably in the garden.
“Oh, it’s a brow trimmer. Auntie Cheng, you have to be more careful in the future. Otherwise, if you cut Grandpa Song, people will misunderstand.” Gu Chu smiled sweetly.
Cheng Qingyun looked deeply at Gu Chu. This petite and cute little girl was full of childish words. However, after careful consideration, she realized that Gu Chu was actually digging a trap for her in every word, pushing her into the fire pit step by step…
She was not even six years old yet, could she really have such a terrifying scheme?
For some reason, Cheng Qingyun thought of what she had done to Gu Manxi in the past.
It was about six years ago, when she had just returned to the country. She, Song Chen, and Gu Manxi had attended a cocktail party organized by a certain dignitary. During the cocktail party, a wealthy lady had accidentally lost a piece of jewelry worth tens of millions.
The wealthy lady was so embarrassed that she flew into a rage. She asked the servants to search the scene for her lost jewelry. For some reason, the jewelry was in Gu Manxi’s handbag. Gu Manxi could not defend herself and was slapped by the angry lady. She even wanted to send her to the police station.
In the end, it was Song Chen who protected Gu Manxi. After this incident, the misunderstanding between Song and Gu intensified…
The person behind the scenes was naturally Cheng Qingyun.
Cheng Qingyun had always done things flawlessly. She was bold and careful. After so many years, she still maintained the image of a perfect goddess in front of outsiders. She could easily deal with Gu Manxi. However, she was repeatedly tricked by the five-year-old Gu Chu…
Gu Chu used the methods that Cheng Qingyun liked the most, such as framing people, acting pitiful, and trying to earn people’s sympathy! She used them to perfection! She was even better than herself!
Cheng Qingyun was extremely aggrieved.
“Alright, I like my peace and quiet. Don’t show yourself in front of me.” Grandfather Song rubbed his temple irritably and chased her away.
Cheng Qingyun wanted to argue but was speechless. She was so angry that her teeth were chattering. From Grandpa Song’s angle of view, she glared fiercely at Gu Chu.
Gu Chu smiled. “Auntie Cheng, why are you glaring at Chuchu? You’re so scary.”
Grandpa Song slammed the table and rebuked angrily, “You’re in your twenties, why are you throwing a tantrum with a child? Don’t use your evil thoughts on a child!”
Cheng Qingyun’s facial features were twisted.
Cheng Qingyun still wanted to explain a little, but just as she opened her mouth, a clear and young voice suddenly came from behind her.
“Chuchu–”
Gu Chu’s eyes lit up.
Well well, isn’t this Cheng Qi?
Gu Chu raised her claws and called out happily, “Brother Cheng Qi!”
