Chapter 328 Disfigured, Deaf, and Toothless (3)
"Suffering injustice? She got what she deserved!" Guh Tian sneered with a vicious look in his eyes, "If you’re not as capable, then failing to keep a promise in front of so many people, where does that leave the dignity of the Guh Family! If those three bastards from the Gu Family had killed her, we could have found an excuse! But now, since they spared her life, we don’t even have a reason to pick a fight!"
Ah Chen hesitated for a moment, then said, "Family Head, it wasn’t Gu Yelin who spared the second miss, but An Yiqing. She was the one who stopped Gu Yelin from making a move."
Upon hearing this, Guh Tian’s eyes narrowed, and a cold smile formed on his lips, "This An Yiqing is indeed a crafty one. I suspect she saw through this from the very beginning, not allowing Gu Yelin to take action to kill Siqing in order to not give us, the Guh Family, any leverage. I truly underestimated her!"
"So, Family Head, what do we do now?" Ah Chen thought about how Siqing had acted shamelessly yesterday and felt a bit uneasy. With so many dignitaries present, if the matter got out, although it wouldn’t affect the foundations of the Guh Family, others would definitely be wary in their future dealings with them.
Guh Tian didn’t reply to Ah Chen’s question. He lowered his gaze and silently pondered for a moment before speaking softly, "Didn’t An Yiqing say she wanted a ten million token of apology? Ah Chen, send someone reliable to deliver it to the An Family with great fanfare. Make sure everyone knows of the Guh Family’s sincerity. Now that An Yiqing and Gu Yelin are together, even if we can handle the An Family, we are definitely not a match for the Gu Family. At this point, our only option is to delay and quiet the masses for now!"
"Understood! Family Head!"
"Also, Old Zhang has died, send someone to check what exactly happened!"
...
At this moment, An Yiqing was unaware of everything happening in the outside world, for she was at the critical juncture of breaking through her bottleneck.
