Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself
Chapter 1201 - 1201 Public Execution1201 Public Execution
Xia Yunlou was the first to come back to her senses. She pretended to be calm and replied, “Madam Ye, Miss Ye, I’m really sorry that we couldn’t attend Miss Ye’s birthday banquet. Mengyan and I returned to Shengdu and couldn’t rush back in time. My father reject some banquets on our behalf, so the moment the two of us came back, we wanted to relay our apologies to you!
“What Madam Ye just said has nothing to do with us. We haven’t been in Li City for the past two days. How could I have framed my daughter? As for being detained, that’s even more nonsense. I hope everyone won’t make wild guesses!”
Xia Yunlou’s tone was serious, but her gaze was lacking in confidence. Her breathing was slightly trembling, but she had to deny it and warn everyone not to make wild guesses.
The eyes of the noblewomen and their daughters were filled with disdain. If they did not know, they might really believe Xia Yunlou’s words.
Seeing that no one refuted, Xia Yunlou’s expression softened. It seemed that everyone believed her. She did not expect that not only had Qiao Xi sent them to the detention center, but she had also spread the news. Fortunately, everyone had only heard about this and did not know that they were the ones who were detained.
Xia Mengyan heaved a sigh of relief and closed her eyes in exhaustion. She picked up the glass of water and drank the lemonade in one gulp. She then picked up a tissue to wipe her sweat before recovering.
Just as the two of them thought that everything was fine, Madam Ye suddenly sneered, scaring Xia Yunlou so much that her entire body trembled. She frowned unhappily. Before she could speak, Madam Ye slammed the table and said loudly, “Xia Yunlou! Do you think we’ll believe you just because you casually made up a few words? The news of you and Xia Mengyan framing Mrs. Gu has already spread. I didn’t expose you just now because I wanted to see you defend yourself nervously!”
The banquet hall was silent. Xia Yunlou’s pupils suddenly constricted as she looked at everyone in fear. They actually knew?
Xia Mengyan’s heart, which had just calmed down, suffered another blow. Her face suddenly turned pale, and her lips trembled as if she was about to faint in the next second.
Madam Ye was a ruthless person, so she naturally wouldn’t go easy on them. “I didn’t ask you to come here today to treat you to a meal. I wanted to teach you two bad women a lesson!
“Xia Mengyan! Don’t forget that your grandmother is a mistress and your father is an illegitimate child. Since your status isn’t honorable, you should keep a low profile. If you’re kind and humble, no one will make things difficult for you. But now that Xia Yunlou has found her biological daughter, you’re afraid that your status will be threatened, so you framed Mrs. Gu and used a one-million-yuan bracelet as a bet. You hoped that Mrs. Gu’s reputation would be ruined and she’d be sentenced. That way, you’d always be the high and mighty daughter of the Xia family and no one would threaten you. I have to say that this move is really ruthless!”
Xia Mengyan was publicly executed. She felt as if everyone’s gazes were sharp knives stabbing into her body, causing her to tremble in pain.
After reprimanding Xia Mengyan, Madam Ye looked at Xia Yunlou. “You’re an idiot. Xia Mengyan wanted to use you to get rid of Mrs. Gu, and you were willing to be used. You framed your daughter for your niece. Xia Yunlou, you deserve what you’ve gotten yourself into today!
“Don’t blame Mrs. Gu for being heartless. You were the one who cut off this mother-daughter relationship first. You asked the police to arrest her and send her to prison. She has shown you plenty of mercy!”
Xia Yunlou’s entire body trembled, and her sharp nails dug into her palms. She had never thought of sending Qiao Xi to jail from the beginning. She just thought that Qiao Xi had stolen something and wanted to teach her a lesson. As long as Qiao Xi handed over the bracelet and apologized to Mengyan, she would withdraw the case.
No matter how much she hated Qiao Xi, she would not let her go to jail. After all, she would also be embarrassed!
Madam Ye looked at the two of them with disgust in her eyes. She waved her hand impatiently and said, “Someone! Chase them out. If they stay here, I won’t be able to breathe easily. Besides, we friends are gathered here to relax. With them here, we’ll have to be on guard against being framed.”
“That’s right! Quickly chase them out. With them around, we won’t have the appetite to eat!”
Xia Yunlou and Xia Mengyan were chased out just like that. When they reacted, they had already left the hotel. The two of them stood in the cold wind and shivered.
Now that everyone in Li City’s upper class society knew that they had been detained, what would they do in the future?
“Ah!!! Why did she spread this news?! I’m her biological mother!” Xia Yunlou roared indignantly, her eyes filled with tears.
