Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty Who Was Short-Lived and Alluring
Chapter 242 The Southern Border Witch 85
Gu Huaizhi's words contained so much information that the discussion in the hall grew even louder.
Bearing the suspicion and spectator's gazes, Xiao Qi'an was furious. He said coldly, "Nonsense! Gu Huaizhi, you admire my wife. When you saw that she married me, you became jealous and started making up lies to try to ruin my marriage. Such behavior is truly despicable."
Xiao Qi'an's voice was strong and clear, without the slightest hint of timidity. His cold expression was exactly like Gu Huaizhi's. The two faced off, neither willing to back down an inch, leaving the people in the hall unsure of who was telling the truth.
"If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. Xiao Qi'an, you don't actually think that the despicable methods you used in secret are really foolproof, do you? Today, I'm going to tear off your hypocritical mask in front of everyone!" Gu Huaizhi sneered.
No sooner had he finished speaking than someone led a woman into the hall.
"You don't forget this person, do you?" Gu Huaizhi stared intently at Xiao Qi'an, then said to the woman, "Qingsong, tell everyone everything you know."
"I am the maid who delivers meals to Young Master Gu. A month ago, Miss Wen asked me to deliver a letter to Young Master Gu. I thought it was just a small matter and agreed. But I didn't expect Xiao Qi'an to call me over and ask me to give him Miss Wen's letter, and to keep it from Miss Wen so that she would think that the letter had been delivered to Young Master Gu. Xiao Qi'an is the young master of the manor, and I dared not disobey his orders, so I did as he said. But I didn't expect that he would kill me to silence me. If it weren't for Young Master Gu sending people to save me, I would probably be dead by now." Qing Song said with tears streaming down her face. She still couldn't help but tremble when she thought of the black-clad man's cold-gleaming knife that night.
The maids of the Qing generation were born into the Xiao Yue Manor. They spent almost their entire lives in the manor, from birth to death, marriage and funeral. They were always loyal to the Xiao Yue Manor. However, today Qing Song called Xiao Qi'an by his name repeatedly, showing no respect whatsoever. This shows how deep her hatred for Xiao Qi'an was.
Qingsong's appearance instantly put Xiao Qi'an, who was originally on par with Gu Huaizhi, at a disadvantage. Everyone also realized that the letter Qingsong spoke of must be the key, otherwise Xiao Qi'an would not have needed to kill someone to silence them.
Gu Huaizhi was well aware of this. He had been exhausted by the marriage between Chu Yun and Xiao Qi'an, both physically and mentally. When he was at his wit's end, Chu Wenshu suddenly visited and revealed the whole story of how Xiao Qi'an broke his promise and bribed Chu Yun to agree to the marriage.
After learning the whole story, Gu Huaizhi hated Xiao Qi'an to the core, but he kept it to himself. In addition to saving Qingsong, he also found out that Xiao Qi'an was behind the Seventh Elder's urgent order for him to return to the valley that day. Everything was planned by Xiao Qi'an with the aim of undermining Chu Yun's trust in him.
With all the evidence laid out before him, Gu Huaizhi had no choice but to believe it. Even after being captured by Lin Zifeng, he still thought of protecting Xiao Yue Manor for Xiao Qi'an. Who would have thought that his sincere heart would be completely wasted!
“A-Yun, I didn’t receive your letter that day, and I was tricked by Xiao Qi’an into leaving Xiao Yue Manor. By the time I returned, you were already deeply disgusted with me. No matter what my intentions were, no matter how much I didn’t want to hurt you, you were still hurt because of me. I don’t ask for your forgiveness, I only ask that you see Xiao Qi’an’s true colors. He has been scheming against you all along and is not a good match for you! A-Yun, come with me, I will take you away from this despicable man.” Gu Huaizhi looked at Chu Yun with earnest eyes, and even though he couldn’t see her face, his gaze never left her.
Xiao Qi'an instinctively stood in front of Chu Yun to block Gu Huaizhi's view, and his large hand couldn't help but tighten around Chu Yun's, as if afraid she would leave.
Today's events were indeed beyond his expectations. He thought Gu Huaizhi had resigned himself to his fate, but he did not expect that Gu Huaizhi not only found out the truth of the matter, but also tried to take Chu Yun away.
The incident happened suddenly. Although Xiao Qi'an was flustered, he was not worried that Gu Huaizhi could break through the guards and take Chu Yun away. He was just afraid that Chu Yun would believe Gu Huaizhi's words. So he whispered in Chu Yun's ear, "A Yun, don't believe him. He made a scene at the wedding and fabricated charges to slander me. He just wanted to drive a wedge between us. Don't fall for his tricks. No matter what, don't go with him. I will explain everything to you later."
Gu Huai's words were so earnest, and Xiao Qi'an's feelings were so sincere. Their hearts were all captivated by Chu Yun, but because of the veil, they could not judge Chu Yun's feelings from her expression, and could only stare at her intently.
Under the gaze of the two men, or rather, under the gaze of everyone, Chu Yun finally stopped being as still as a puppet. She tugged at her arms, trying to break free from Xiao Qi'an's grasp.
Xiao Qi'an thought Chu Yun was going to give up on him, so he tightened his grip. "A-Yun, no!"
He pleaded in a low voice, clinging tightly to Chu Yun as if she were a lifeline that could save him; if she let go, he would drown.
Xiao Qi'an had never been so afraid. He pleaded again, "No! A-Yun."
Amid his pleas, Chu Yun reached out and pried open Xiao Qi'an's fingers little by little, quickly breaking free from his grasp.
Chu Yun was like quicksand; no matter how hard Xiao Qi'an tried to tighten his grip to keep her, he ended up empty-handed.
Compared to Xiao Qi'an's reddened eyes and humble, pained expression, Gu Huaizhi couldn't help but smile with delight. He strode forward and said, "A-Yun, I knew you would choose to believe me."
As if to prove his words, Chu Yun suddenly ripped off the veil on her head.
The red veil, symbolizing good fortune and joy, was torn off by its owner before the groom could lift it himself, and it fell to the ground unnoticed.
Xiao Qi'an was quite shocked by Chu Yun's actions. He stared blankly at the veil that had fallen to the ground, tears welling up in his eyes.
Gu Huaizhi was overjoyed and gently took Chu Yun's hand, "I'll take you away!"
He had barely taken a step when Xiao Qi'an's menacing voice rang in his ears, "She's my woman. Where are you taking her?"
"Your people? Everything you obtained through scheming, has it ever truly belonged to you!" Gu Huaizhi retorted, glaring angrily at Xiao Qi'an.
The two men, dressed in wedding attire, stood only a few steps apart, like two tigers fighting for territory, ready to pounce and kill each other at any moment.
What put them in a life-or-death situation was the bride, caught between the two, with her eyes downcast and who hadn't uttered a word from beginning to end.
A wedding that should have been a joyous occasion turned into a tense affair, complete with scenes of brothers turning against each other and scheming against one another. Scenes that even fictional characters dared not write suddenly came to life before our eyes, and were even played by famous figures from the martial arts world. Everyone held their breath, ready to see how things would unfold and guess who would win the heart of the beauty.
