Chapter 524 - Im Not a Gossipy Person
The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute.
After Gu Jie walked over, he said to Chu Luo with a regretful expression, âChu Luo, I had something to attend to this morning. Itâs a pity that I didnât perform the safety exercise with you. I heard that you helped everyone come up with the idea to hold a safety lecture. Your idea is really good.â
Chu Luo nodded coldly and had no intention of talking to him.
Gu Lexuan snorted.
Chu Luo and Sun Tianhao looked at her at the same time.
Even though Gu Lexuan had suffered a disadvantage from Chu Luo a few times, she still felt that her status was higher than Chu Luoâs. On what basis did outstanding men only surround Chu Luo?
As the saying goes, âOnce on shore one prays no more.â At the sight of Chu Luo, she didnât want to be nice to her.
Sun Tianhao narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked Gu Jie, âGu Jie, is your sister jealous of my sisterâs talent and beauty? The moment she sees my sister, she sulks. Those who donât know might think that they have a grudge.â
Gu Jie hadnât expected Sun Tianhao to ask such a question. He tilted his head and glanced at Gu Lexuan, who had an ugly expression. He was a little unhappy. âHaozi, what are you talking about? Since when did my sister have a grudge against Chu Luo?â
âIf thereâs no grudge, why did she snort for no reason? Is she crazy?â
âHaozi, you...â
âHow can you say that about me?â Gu Lexuan raised her voice before Gu Jie and glared at Sun Tianhao. âHow can you be so ungentlemanly in front of a girl? To think youâre from the upper-class society.â
After saying that, she looked at him in disappointment.
Sun Tianhao laughed at Gu Lexuanâs overconfidence.
Just as he was about to retort, Chu Luo said first, âTalking to such a brainless person will lower your intelligence. I suggest you just treat her as air. If you really canât stand her, you can just beat her up.â
âChu Luo, why do you say that? How did my sister offend you?â Gu Jie hadnât expected Chu Luo to ask Sun Tianhao to beat up his sister. He immediately glared at her.
Chu Luo looked at him coldly and said, âCanât you tell whatâs wrong? I donât know where she got her confidence from to think that sheâs superior to others.â
She suddenly approached the two of them and said in a low and dangerous voice, âCould it be because Gu Lexuanâs father is an Earl?â
Gu Lexuan and Gu Jieâs expressions changed when they heard this.
Puzzled, Sun Tianhao asked, âChu Luo, when did Gu Lexuanâs father become an Earl?â
Chu Luo took a step back and said to Sun Tianhao with a meaningful smile, âThink about it yourself.â
Sun Tianhao thought about it carefully, then looked at Gu Lexuan and said in surprise, âCould it be that your mother gave birth to you in secret with an Earl?â
After saying that, he looked at them as if her family had loose morals.
It was unknown if Gu Lexuan was guilty, but she flew into a rage out of humiliation and growled at Chu Luo, âChu Luo, you better not spout nonsense. Otherwise...â
âOtherwise, what do you want to do to my sister?â Sun Tianhao walked towards Gu Lexuan. His sharp aura made Gu Lexuan subconsciously take two steps back. It was unknown what she stepped on, but she staggered and was about to fall.
âAh...â
Gu Lexuan subconsciously fell towards Gu Jie.
Gu Jie finally came back to his senses. He quickly steadied Gu Lexuan and looked at Chu Luo with a scowl. âChu Luo, what did you say just now? I advise you not to spout nonsense!â
Chu Luo smiled at him and sneered. âIf one has evidence, itâs not spouting nonsense... So you better control your overconfident sister. She thinks that she has a noble status. If anyone reports this news, see if that Earl will come out and speak.â
Gu Jie frowned.
He tilted his head and looked at Gu Lexuan, who was startled by Sun Tianhao and was crying there. His mood suddenly became a little complicated. His auntie was from the Shang family. The Shang family had a powerful backer behind them. The Gu family had wanted this powerful backer, so they had let his uncle marry his pregnant aunt in order to hide it.
Later on, when the Gu family had found out who Gu Lexuanâs biological father was, they had raised her like a princess because they had wanted to build ties with this person.
However, this matter couldnât be brought to light at all. The Earl had also warned them not to spout nonsense.
Even though the Gu family had lost the backing of the Shang family and the Duanmu family, they still had the backing of the Earl. Therefore, the Gu family had always instilled in Gu Lexuan that she had a noble status. Other than the people from the large families in the capital, no one else was worthy of her.
In Gu Lexuanâs eyes, besides having better results and being a little prettier than her, Chu Luo couldnât compare to her in other aspects.
So every time she saw Chu Luo being praised by everyone, she felt uncomfortable.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu Luo looked at Gu Lexuan and her smile widened.
âYou donât have the life of a princess but you insist on acting like one. Gu Lexuan, youâre just a clown in my eyes. I usually like to ignore clowns, but if you keep making your presence known in front of me, donât blame me for being rude.â
When Chu Luo said this, she exuded a sharp aura. Not only was it so intense that Gu Lexuan forgot to cry, but even Gu Jie and Sun Tianhao were so shocked that they forgot to react.
Chu Luo walked away.
Sun Tianhao was the first to react. He chased after her.
âChu Luo, Gu Lexuan is really the daughter of the Earl? Which countryâs Earl? Why does she look like people from the empire?â
âX Nation.â
âNo wonder!â
X Nation was also in Southeast Asia, so it made sense that Gu Lexuan still had the looks of someone from the empire.
Sun Tianhao had more questions to ask.
Chu Luo glanced at him and stopped him. âIf you want to gossip, go back and investigate yourself.â
Sun Tianhaoâs words were stuck in his throat. He muttered arrogantly, âIâm not a gossipy person.â
However, in his heart, he wanted to send someone to investigate when he returned.
...
Gu Lexuan and Gu Jie only came back to their senses after Chu Luo and Sun Tianhao had left.
A strong anger suddenly surged in Gu Lexuanâs heart. She had never been so angry before.
âHow dare she threaten me!â
At this moment, there were already many students surrounding them.
Everyone pointed and criticized Gu Lexuan.
Gu Jie listened for a while and pulled Gu Lexuan along a path with an ugly expression.
It wasnât until they reached a remote place that Gu Jie let go of her and said, âXuanxuan, we canât afford to offend Chu Luo now. Donât cause trouble for her for no reason.â
âWhen did I cause trouble for her? Sheâs the one whoâs been making things difficult for me, okay!â Gu Lexuan hadnât expected Gu Jie to criticize her. She was so aggrieved that tears flowed down her face.
As she cried, she said, âChu Luo will snatch anything that catches my eye.â
âWhat? What did Chu Luo snatch from you?â
âThe teacher I liked was snatched by her, the person I liked was snatched by her, and even the spot I fought so hard for was snatched by her.â
Gu Lexuan spoke vaguely, but Gu Jieâs fists tightened as he imagined it.
âWhy didnât you tell me this sooner?â
âI originally thought that I could resolve it. I didnât expect Chu Luo to be so shameless. She relied on her good relations at Imperial University and instigated everyone to isolate me. I...â
âWhat?â Gu Jie grabbed Gu Lexuanâs shoulder, his face ashen. âYouâre isolated by everyone? Why havenât you said anything!â
Gu Lexuan started sobbing.
Gu Jie let go of her shoulder and spun around in a fit of anger.
Gu Lexuan said, âBrother, I canât take this lying down. Can you help me teach Chu Luo a lesson?â
Gu Jie was so angry that his eyes turned red.
âSuch a woman has to be taught a lesson.â
A glint flashed across Gu Lexuanâs eyes. âI heard from a friend of mine a few days ago that Chu Luo offended the woman of an influential gangster. That woman is trying to deal with her. Why donât you...â
Gu Lexuan whispered into Gu Jieâs ear.
When Gu Jie heard this, he narrowed his eyes and thought for a while before nodding. âAlright, Iâll meet that guy in the afternoon.â
âBrother, donât let anyone know that you did this.â
âDonât you have faith in your brother?â
At this point, the two of them looked at each other and smiled before leaving the corner.
However, they hadnât expected that not long after they left, a girl turned around from a corner.
The girl looked in the direction where the two of them left and the corners of her lips curled up into a calculative smile. She took out her phone and dialed a number. She said to the other party, âBrother, I heard just now... Get someone to follow them. When the time comes, we might be able to play a game of âThe mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behindâ.â
...
Sun Tianhao left after sending Chu Luo to the technology building.
As he left, he said, âChu Luo, you have to attend the first lecture tonight, right?â
Chu Luo looked at him strangely. âWhy should I participate?â
Sun Tianhao said matter-of-factly, âDonât think that weâre here as instructors. Weâre actually students too. How can a few of us hold a lecture for five thousand students?â
Chu Luo smiled faintly.
Sun Tianhao was displeased. âWhat kind of gaze is that?â
âArenât you incredible? You canât even handle five thousand people?â
âIâm just inexperienced.â
Sun Tianhao realized that he couldnât be shameless with Chu Luo. If he was, he would lose.
He grinned at her and said, âYouâre more experienced than us. When the time comes, help us control the entire venue. You wonât need to be present for lectures in the future.â
Chu Luo thought for a while and nodded. âAlright, let me know after youâve confirmed the time..â
