The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

Du Mengfu's sharp, somewhat manic voice was like a poisoned needle constantly stimulating her eardrums.

What these two women want to do to her is something that will make her wish she were dead.

However, she was still unwilling to give up that sliver of hope.

"Shi Wantong, you are, after all, the daughter of the Minister of Rites. I never thought that you, the legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official, would be manipulated by the daughter of a dancer!" Fang Qingyou's eyes revealed deep disdain: "Shi Wantong, you always say that I'm the one who prevented you and Young Master Gu from being together, but have you never thought about why Young Master Gu doesn't like you?"

The mention of the dancer's daughter caused Du Mengfu's expression to change instantly, and also intensified the disgust in Shi Wantong's eyes.

"Fang Qingyou, shut up..." Du Mengfu shouted angrily, her identity had always been a thorn in her side.

Ever since her background was exposed at that Qixi Festival banquet, those young ladies from noble families have avoided her like the plague.

She had been looking for an opportunity to avenge her previous defeat, but unexpectedly, a series of events left her completely defenseless.

First, the Du family's property was inexplicably seized, and then the father was demoted.

The father blamed everything on her, and in the end, no matter how hard the mother tried, she couldn't win back the father's heart.

Her father not only neglected her, but also took away her mother's position as wife and married a young and beautiful new wife.

She went from being the legitimate daughter of the Du family to an illegitimate daughter, and an illegitimate daughter whose reputation was completely ruined.

All of this is thanks to Fang Qingyou.

These past few days, she had been thinking about revenge every single moment, and she had finally waited for this opportunity.

However, Du Mengfu had no idea that she had targeted the wrong enemy; the person who destroyed everything for her was not Fang Qingyou, but Luo Qianmo.

Fang Qingyou only knew about what had happened to Du Mengfu, but she was unaware of the cruelty Luo Qianmo had inflicted on her.

Before Du Mengfu could finish her rant, Shi Wantong glared at her fiercely and said, "You shut up!"

Shi Wantong hated Fang Qingyou, but she also really wanted to know the answer.

Why doesn't Gu Jinyi like her?

Although she was unwilling to admit it, it was undeniable that Gu Jinyi treated Fang Qingyou differently, and in her opinion, this difference was simply affection.

She felt that the answer coming from Fang Qingyou was closer to the truth than any answer she had received from anyone else.

Seeing that Shi Wantong was indeed attracted to her, Fang Qingyou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fang Qingyou, tell me, why doesn't Young Master Gu like me?"

"Shi Wantong, you keep saying that I'm the reason you can't get into Mr. Gu's heart. But have you forgotten that you already knew Mr. Gu before me, and that you even had a good relationship? I'm a newcomer, not pretty, from a poor family, not gentle enough, and have no talents. How could Mr. Gu possibly like me?"

"On the other hand, you, Shi Wantong, are the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family, with a profound family background, both talent and beauty, and gentle and charming nature. How could you possibly be inferior to me?"

Fang Qingyou is going to great lengths to buy time.

They were willing to belittle themselves to elevate Shi Wantong.

She was disgusted by all the praise she received.

These words struck a chord with Shi Wantong.

Seeing Shi Wantong being led inside by Fang Qingyou, Du Mengfu anxiously tried to warn her not to fall into Fang Qingyou's trap, but instead received a sharp glare from Shi Wantong.

Fang Qingyou noticed Du Mengfu's expression and sighed with feigned regret, "Shi Wantong, how could you be so foolish? Seeing how infatuated you are, as an outsider, let me give you a few pointers. You know perfectly well that Young Master Gu is the eldest son of the Gu family and the most prestigious young master in the world. The matriarch of the Gu family must be gentle, generous, from a distinguished family, and exceptionally intelligent. You possess all these qualities, but look at the kind of people you associate with every day!"

As she spoke, Fang Qingyou glanced at Du Mengfu, seemingly unintentionally: "Shi Wantong, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you always associate with people who lower their status, so you inevitably end up doing things that lower their status as well. How can someone like you be noticed by Young Master Gu?"

"Fang Qingyou, you bitch, how dare you sow discord between me and my cousin..."

Shi Wantong thought about it and realized that Fang Qingyou was right. Her gaze towards Du Mengfu turned hostile: "Shut up, Du Mengfu, you bitch! I wondered why you were so kind as to help me! Are you jealous of me, so you're just pretending to be kind? Someone like you wants to marry my brother? You're just delusional!"

Her mother had warned her long ago not to get too close to Du Mengfu, but she didn't listen to her advice and trusted Du Mengfu, which caused her to drift further and further away from Young Master Gu.

A fierce glint flashed in Du Mengfu's eyes. She hated people looking at her with such disgust, as if she were something repulsive.

What's more, Shi Wantong had hit the nail on the head.

She was indeed jealous of Shi Wantong's background, she was indeed using Shi Wantong to deal with Fang Qingyou, and she did want to marry her brother.

But the words "wishful thinking" shattered the last glimmer of hope in her heart.

This made Du Mengfu unable to suppress her anger any longer, and she suddenly slapped Shi Wantong across the face.

"Shi Wantong, you idiot! I don't know if I'm good enough for your brother, but you are definitely not good enough for Young Master Gu! You even asked why Young Master Gu doesn't like you? What makes you think he would like you?"

"Shi Wantong, in terms of appearance, you are only above average. In terms of family background, how can the Shi family compare with the Gu family? In terms of talent, you are just so-so. In terms of personality, isn't your gentleness and generosity all an act? What's more, you are so stupid, as stupid as an idiot. If it weren't for wanting to marry your brother, do you think I would even bother to associate with you?"

Shi Wantong was stunned by the beating, but when she came to her senses, she was about to raise her hand to hit Du Mengfu.

Normally, it was she who disliked Du Mengfu, never the other way around.

But just now, she clearly saw disgust in that little bitch's eyes!

Du Mengfu sneered and grabbed Shi Wantong's hand: "Shi Wantong, someone like you, do you really expect Young Master Gu to like you! Just like Fang Qingyou said, even if Young Master Gu were blind, he wouldn't look at you!"

"You little bitch, shut up!" Shi Wantong was furious. She broke free from Du Mengfu's hand and was about to slap her again.

"Stupid woman, go to hell!" Du Mengfu retorted, reaching out to grab Shi Wantong's face.

Seeing the two women who were originally standing together finally start fighting, Fang Qingyou wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Scheming against people really takes a lot of brainpower.

However, her heart, which had just settled down, quickly rose again.

Because she heard Du Mengfu suddenly shout, "You can come in and enjoy yourselves now!"
