Chapter 1695: Chapter 1695: Are You Afraid You Won’t Be Able to Get It?
Looking up, she saw Xuanyuan Zimo entering from outside, her eyes brimming with mockery.
“Where did Sister Zimo go this time? Brother Zheng’s room? Tsk tsk, one would never guess, Sister Zimo looks so proper on the surface, but underneath, there seems to be nothing she wouldn’t do.”
Brother Zheng was most likely to be the next Sect Leader of Qingyun Sect. If he favored Xuanyuan Zimo, her status within the Sect would surely rise with the tide.
Therefore, she concluded that Xuanyuan Zimo’s late return that night must have been from visiting Brother Zheng’s room.
“Do you think everyone is like you?”
Xuanyuan Zimo gave her a cold glance and sat down on her own bed to meditate.
“You—”
With just one sentence, Gu Qingyu was infuriated.
What about her? She hadn’t, like Xuanyuan Zimo, gone to seduce a man in his room.
Even though she had felt attracted to Qian Jiyun before, she hadn’t done anything out of line—she’d only quietly used some small tricks. She would never stoop to the disgusting acts that Xuanyuan Zimo would.
“Xuanyuan Zimo, say that again!”
She ground her teeth and spoke to Xuanyuan Zimo with viciousness.
However, Xuanyuan Zimo had already closed her eyes to meditate, paying no heed to what she said.
“You just wait!”
In the end, Gu Qingyu could do nothing but spit out a threat and turn to go back to her own bed, where she lay down and went to sleep.
Tomorrow, she would find a way to get close to Xiang Qiyan. Once she had Xiang Qiyan’s affection, would she still need to fear these worthless scumbags?
…
Early the next morning.
Gu Qingyu thought of many ways to approach him, and seeing that the guards all wore cold expressions when they saw her, her own face didn’t look very good either.
By the looks of it, were they all on guard against her?
She hadn’t actually done anything, had she? Although she had cast her gaze upon Qian Jiyun, she had never actually approached him, merely instigated a few words.
Were these few words cause for such disdain?
“Huff!”
She let out a heavy sigh and stood in the corridor, gazing at Xiang Qiyan’s room from a distance.
“I refuse to believe I can’t get close to him!”
She gritted her teeth fiercely and turned to decide to check on the kitchen.
If need be, she would just thicken her skin a bit and make some delicious dishes in the kitchen to curry favor with the guards.
If all else failed, she could drug them and make them all pass out. Surely she’d get her way then?
So what if she offended anyone? As long as she captured Xiang Qiyan’s heart, what did it matter if she offended a few guards? In the end, wouldn’t they just obediently listen to her and become her lackeys?
“Ah!”
A scream spilled from her mouth.
Gu Qingyu could never have expected that just upon entering the kitchen, she’d be spurned by the lowly servants within.
The most infuriating part was that those people didn’t say a word, simply using the tools in their hands to chase her out of the kitchen, without a moment’s hesitation or an ounce of politeness in speaking to her.
Of course, she was unwilling to leave and tried to stay, but one of the servants grabbed her by the collar and threw her out.
Outside the kitchen was a large basin of water. She landed squarely in it, soaking wet and utterly disheveled, which made her angrily get up from the basin and stomp her feet on the spot.
These people were detestable, just like An Jiuyue!
“What’s going on?”
Brother Zheng and a few others, hearing the commotion, hurried over and saw the sorry figure of Gu Qingyu.
