A hint of pride flashed in Gu Miao's eyes.
If it were in the previous life, Gu Qing might be sad if her father favored her half-sister, but now she felt nothing in her heart and even found it ridiculous.
"Father, you keep blaming me and think Miao'er is innocent, but is she really innocent?"
"Big sister, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Gu Qing's eyes were cold, and her sharp gaze like a knife fell on Gu Miao, making her back feel cold and sweaty.
This time, I will slap her in the face in public and expose her true face!
"Am I talking nonsense?"
Gu Qing sneered and said sharply, "Just now at the dinner table, your actions, did you think I was blind?"
"That slap I gave you just now was meant to slap you for being shameless. You actually dared to have dirty thoughts about your brother-in-law. If this gets out, how will your father face the world? And where will the reputation of the Gu family be?"
After saying that, Gu Qing raised his hand and slapped him again, using all his strength, causing his palm to go numb.
"I'm slapping you for spreading rumors, pretending to be pitiful all day, and trying to sow discord between me and my father."
Gu Miao was beaten so hard that he saw stars. He caught sight of his father's suspicious gaze from the corner of his eye. He was filled with grief and anger, and felt a fishy and sweet taste rising in his throat.
Now she just wanted to tear Gu Qing's mouth apart.
"I don't!"
"No?"
Gu Qing had no intention of letting her go.
"You just kept saying that I was deliberately looking for trouble, but you didn't realize that what happened on the day of the return visit was tacitly approved by my father. And you still say that I wasn't trying to sow discord between me and my father?"
Gu Miao was speechless after hearing her words.
Seeing this, Gu's father secretly cursed Gu Miao as a useless fool, and at the same time cast a cold look at Gu Qing.
If he hadn't planted people to monitor her every day, he would have thought that his daughter had been swapped by Chen Zhizhou!
"You troublemaker, get out of here!"
Gu Miao was already feeling wronged, and after being scolded by his father, he became even more desperate. He covered his face and ran out crying.
Father Gu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Gu Qing with a hint of guilt in his eyes.
"Qing'er, Dad was confused just now and almost misunderstood your good intentions."
Give a slap and a sweet date!
Gu Qing was disdainful in his heart, but pretended to be moved and frightened.
"Father, what are you talking about? We are father and daughter, how can there be any overnight hatred? Just talk it out."
"But I saw that my second sister was crying so hard just now. I wonder if she would do anything extreme?"
She exaggerated on purpose, wanting to see Gu's father's reaction.
Unexpectedly, the latter didn't show any worry on his face. Instead, he said coldly, "She did something wrong in the first place. How dare she commit suicide? It's because I dote on her too much that I've spoiled her to the point of being like this today. I'm taking this opportunity to teach her a lesson."
It seems that this is how much my father dotes on Aunt Liu and her daughter.
A flash of sarcasm flashed across Gu Qing's eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.
After the little episode, Gu's father always wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Gu Qing alone, but Chen Zhizhou was too clingy and had no tact, so in the end he had no choice but to give up.
Gu Qing naturally knew that he did it on purpose.
I couldn't help laughing when I thought about how he calmly deflected every hint from his father, and how he was finally so angry that he couldn't speak.
"what you do?"
Chen Zhizhou felt frightened by her stare.
Ever since she got on the carriage, she has been staring at her without leaving her eyes, and always laughing, which is really creepy.
"No, nothing!"
Gu Qing smiled and shook his head, then suddenly leaned close to him and pecked him hard on the face.
Chen Zhizhou covered his face inexplicably, curled his lips unconsciously, and his dark eyes were filled with doting.
…
As soon as the two returned home, they were called over by Chen's mother.
"Hello, mother!"
The two of them saluted respectfully.
Mother Chen agreed with a smile and waved her hand for the two to sit down. "The Queen's birthday is in five days. We have never been there in previous years, but this year the Emperor has shown mercy and allowed you and your wife to come to the palace to celebrate the Queen's birthday. You must prepare well in advance and don't bring shame to our Chen family."
As Chen's mother spoke, she felt a little excited.
Their Chen family is no different from other noble families, or the clean civil servants, or the wealthy and powerful. They have truly earned their official positions through hard work.
Although his descendants have been more and more capable and have held higher and higher positions in recent years, they are still looked down upon by those noble families.
This birthday party is a good opportunity!
"Yes, mother is right."
Gu Qing understood what Chen's mother was thinking and nodded in agreement.
In fact, even if she didn't say it, I thought so too.
In the previous life, my father didn't find any real evidence, but why did people all over the world believe it? In the final analysis, it was because Chen Zhizhou had a bad reputation.
Three people make a tiger, and accumulated criticism can destroy a person.
Since we want to change the fate of the Chen family, the first step is to change the reputation of the Chen family in the minds of outsiders.
She must plan carefully over the next two days.
"Qing'er, you are a good child. Not only are you gentle and virtuous, but you are also well-educated and well-mannered. I feel more at ease knowing you are by Zhou'er's side."
"He has a straightforward temper and is careless. He might accidentally offend someone without even realizing it. When the Queen's birthday banquet comes, you must remind him more often."
Chen's mother warned worriedly.
Are you sure you are talking about Chen Zhizhou?
After spending some time together, Gu Qingchen finally saw through it. Although this man pretended to be honest on the surface, his thoughts were actually deeper than anyone else's.
If he had hair on him, he would be even smarter than a monkey!
"Don't worry, mother."
Of course, she couldn't tell these things to Chen's mother, so she could only deal with it.
"Then I'll have Mrs. Lao from now on!"
Chen Zhizhou had a faint smile on his face and held Gu Qing's hand affectionately. His corny tone gave people goosebumps.
Seeing the young couple loving each other so much and being as happy as one, Chen's mother smiled with satisfaction and invited them to have dinner together.
It was not until it was completely dark that the two finally returned to their yard.
"Will you be free tomorrow?"
After quickly washing up, Gu Qing lay on the bed, looked at the wooden shelf above his head, and asked.
"We have patrols and training tomorrow, what's going on?"
Chen Zhizhou turned his head to look at her profile, feeling a little distracted, and resisted the urge to take a bite.
"Nothing much."
Gu Qing pursed her lips and said nothing more. Just as she was about to close her eyes and go to sleep, she felt a restless hand reaching out to her chest.
I felt a chill and when I lowered my head, I found that my underwear had been unbuttoned without me noticing.
"Chen Zhizhou!"
She sounded angry and wanted to stop him, but she didn't expect the man to turn over and press on her, blocking her from saying anything with his mouth.
…
The next day.
Gu Qing opened his eyes and found that Chen Zhizhou was no longer by his side.
She stretched herself, asked Qiu Rong to wash and dress for her, and then left the house in a hurry without even having breakfast, without noticing that someone was following her quietly.
