Gu Qingtong heard her sarcastic laughter and was furious, but she wouldn’t be outdone: “Liang Luoxian, your family’s glory is long gone too. You’re worse off than me. What right do you have to point fingers? Are you tired of living, wanting my adoptive father to teach you a lesson?”
Liang Luoxian’s face turned pale, twisting her handkerchief in anger. Gu Qingtong’s words had struck her deeply. Moreover, with Gu Qingtong protected by her adoptive father, and Liang Luoxian relying only on herself, she couldn’t think of a vicious retort and stormed off.
Gu Qingtong hadn’t expected Liang Luoxian to be so weak. She’d accidentally struck a nerve.
Gu Qingtong completed her first marriage trial successfully, feeling full of joy. After having lunch at the Yang family, she bid farewell and left. However, as soon as she stepped out, Young Miss Yang caught up with her.
“Gu Qingniang, let me see you off.”
“I have my own carriage.”
Young Miss Yang laughed awkwardly: “I have something to tell you.” She said this while pulling her into her own carriage, instructing Gu Qingtong’s carriage to follow behind.
Gu Qingtong guessed she wanted advice and did not refuse.
But as soon as Gu Qingtong sat down, Young Miss Yang eagerly leaned close: “Did Liu Yuezhi find you yesterday?”

Gu Qingtong was surprised, then realized she meant the third young madam of the Xie family, “Yes, the third young madam spoke to me.”
“Is she asking you for help?”
“That seems to be the case.”
“You absolutely must not help her, that wretched woman!” Young Miss Yang suddenly said viciously.
“Young Miss, what’s wrong?”
“You can’t imagine, I couldn’t imagine either, that Ling’er was actually brought by her!” Young Miss Yang furiously pounded the carriage wall, looking truly enraged.
“How could this be? Wasn’t it said that Young Master Xie bought her from outside?”
