Chapter 163 : Lu Yunxiang gets slapped in the face

Ye Wanqing looked on with satisfaction at the ashen faces of the women.

She said smugly, “So, do you still believe that what Lu Yunxiang said is true?”

“With what Lu Yunxiang has done, who would dare believe anything she says?”

“Indeed. Lu Yunyao didn’t even provoke Lu Yunxiang, yet she schemed against Lu Yunyao for her own position. What else wouldn’t she do?”

“No wonder the Lu family expelled her. A woman as malicious as that is like a ticking time bomb in the house!”

As the discussions swirled around her, the voluptuous woman’s face went from green to pale, looking extremely embarrassed.

Under the pressure of public opinion, she had no choice but to apologize.

“I’m sorry, I misunderstood the Lu family and Lu Yunyao.”

Ye Wanqing deliberately said, “Please speak louder, we can’t hear you.”

“You! Ye Wanqing, don’t go too far!”

“Is it bullying you if I ask you to apologize for your slander? It’s you who are too easily intimidated.”

After all, Ye Wanqing was from the Ye family of Su City.

Given the Ye family’s status and influence, who would dare to cross Ye’s face and make trouble with Ye Wanqing?

The voluptuous woman, no matter how unwilling, had to bow her head and apologize.

“I’m sorry! I misunderstood the Lu family and Lu Yunyao!”

Only then did Ye Wanqing let her off the hook. “It’s good that you realize your mistake. In the future, if you don’t know the truth, don’t speak out so easily.”

She then turned to others and said with a proud tone:

“The Lu family and our Ye family will be in-laws in the future. Yunyao and I are also good friends. Lu Yunxiang was expelled from the Lu family for her own mistakes and has nothing to do with Yunyao!”

“But Lu Yunxiang’s mistakes don’t end there! She also plotted the accident involving Old Madam Fu, falsified DNA tests, and even poisoned people around her!”

“Such a person being expelled from the Lu family, does anyone still sympathize with her?”

The shocking revelations Ye Wanqing made were far more intense than the baseless rumors!

Lu Yunxiang had no evidence, so she could only spread unfounded rumors.

But what Ye Wanqing said was all backed by solid evidence, and each instance had serious criminal implications!

“Ye Wanqing dares to say all this in front of so many people and even presents some evidence. Her credibility is very high.”

“Yes, Lu Yunxiang only dared to spread rumors behind people’s backs, never bringing them to the forefront. Clearly, she has something to hide.”

“Look, Lu Yunxiang is here! She’s with Gu Qingyu! This should be interesting.”

Everyone’s gaze turned to the entrance.

Lu Yunxiang appeared, holding Gu Qingyu’s arm.

She seemed prepared for this occasion, dressed plainly, her face pale, eyes red and swollen as if she had been crying.

Lu Yunxiang was determined to malign the Lu family and Lu Yunyao thoroughly at this banquet!

At the same time, she had applied a delicate, vulnerable makeup, hoping to attract the sympathy of some young master from a wealthy family and rise to prominence.

“Qingyu, why is everyone staring at us?” Lu Yunxiang asked in a soft, weak voice.

For some reason, she had a bad premonition.

Gu Qingyu patted her hand. “Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, no one will dare to challenge you.”

Gu Qingyu strode into the banquet hall with confidence.

“Although Lu Yunxiang is no longer a member of the Lu family, she is my friend and is entitled to attend this banquet. If anyone has objections, they are taking issue with me, Gu Qingyu.”

She expected these words to rally support, but instead, the room fell into an awkward silence.

No one spoke.

Everyone’s gazes toward her and Lu Yunxiang were laden with meaning.

Gu Qingyu frowned.

What was going on?

With the status of the Gu family, her words should at least garner some backing.

Gu Qingyu’s gaze scanned the room and landed on Lu Yunyao among the crowd.

Remembering Fu Sichan’s affection for her, Gu Qingyu’s eyes flashed with intense jealousy. If Lu Yunxiang hadn’t held her back, she would have slapped this cheap woman on the spot!

Gu Qingyu sneered, “No wonder no one is speaking. It turns out some unsavory people arrived early and said things to confuse everyone.”

Lu Yunyao frowned slightly.

Before she could respond, Ye Wanqing jumped in, “If we’re talking about unsavory, we certainly can’t compete with the likes of Legal Coffee.”

“What’s Legal Coffee? What are you talking about?” Gu Qingyu asked, confused.

Ye Wanqing quickly realized that Lu Yunxiang must have lied and misled Gu Qingyu.

“Miss Gu, you should ask Lu Yunxiang. The accident involving Old Madam Fu was actually orchestrated by Lu Yunxiang.”

“What?”

Gu Qingyu widened her eyes in shock, turning to look at Lu Yunxiang with disbelief.

“Is this true? Did you design the accident to frame Old Madam Fu? Why would you do that?”

Lu Yunxiang’s gaze shifted nervously as she stammered, “I—I… I didn’t do it on purpose.”

“You really dared to do that?!”

Gu Qingyu’s voice rose sharply. She lifted her right hand and slapped Lu Yunxiang hard.

Smack—

Lu Yunxiang’s face was turned to the side from the impact, her cheek swelling up immediately.

“Qingyu, let me explain…”

“Lu Yunxiang, I considered you a good friend, yet you schemed against me behind my back?”

Gu Qingyu was furious, not just because of Lu Yunxiang’s malice, but because she realized Lu Yunxiang’s real target was Fu Sichan!

Otherwise, why would she design an accident with no personal vendetta against Old Madam Fu?

Gu Qingyu finally understood why Lu Yunyao had connections with Sichan, it was all due to Lu Yunxiang’s scheming!

She had planned the accident, hoping to use a life-saving favor to coerce the Fu family, but all her calculations fell apart, leaving the fruits of her scheming to Lu Yunyao!

The thought of Lu Yunyao successfully marrying into the Fu family and receiving Sichan’s affection made Gu Qingyu wish she could slice Lu Yunxiang into a thousand pieces!

It was all her fault!

It’s all her fault!

It’s all her fault for taking her Sichan away!

Gu Qingyu had never had a good temper. After figuring out everything, she vented all her resentment on Lu Yunxiang.

“You bitch! Go to hell!”

Gu Qingyu grabbed Lu Yunxiang’s hair and slapped her seven or eight times.

Soon, Lu Yunxiang’s face was slapped into a pig’s head.

She covered her pig-headed face and begged for mercy, “Stop hitting me, Qingyu, I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have lied to you.”

“What’s the point of knowing you’re wrong? It’s too late now! It’s all your fault!”

Now that Lu Yunyao has married into the Fu family, there is no point in Lu Yunxiang’s apology!

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

No one reacted, so no one stepped forward to stop the fight.

By the time someone came to their senses and rushed over to pull the two people apart, Lu Yunxiang’s hair had been slapped into a mess, red blood was oozing from the corners of her mouth, and her entire face was completely unrecognizable.

She had wanted to be pitied.

Now, everyone present couldn’t help but gasp when they looked at her.

Tsk tsk, that’s too miserable.

Unexpectedly, the person who tortured Lu Yunxiang the most in the end was her former best friend.
