Chapter 34: Gu Xi Bit Someone

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Just as the person who spread the rumor that the twins were not Gu Zhan’s biological son, she caught a glimpse of a kid rushing towards her.

Before she could react, the kid grabbed her arm and bit her.

“Ahh! It hurts! Let go!”

The woman cried out in pain. But she did not dare to push the kid away because the kid bit hard on her arm. She was worried that her arm might bleed.

“Who are you? Why are you biting me?”

The woman cried out in shock. She endured the pain and lowered her head to find out that the person who bit her was Gu Xi. Gu Xi was staring at her and biting her arm as she thought.

“How dare he speak ill of her mother? How dare he say that she and Gu Bei were not her father’s children?”

“Someone like her deserved to be bitten!”

Gu Xi wanted to look for Gu Bei and ask him to dance with her. However, when she passed through the crowd, she heard that woman speaking ill of her mother.

She no longer cared about dancing and rushed directly over to help her mother teach that woman a lesson.

Even Gu Bei could not stop her.

The woman who spoke ill of Su Luo panicked. She was worried that Gu Xi had heard everything she had just said. If Gu Xi told Su Luo or Gu Zhan, their family’s business cooperation with the Gu and Su families would be impossible.

“Let go first. You must have misheard, kid. We were talking about someone else.”

That woman tried to cover up with a lie.

The woman was obviously lying. Gu Xi was so angry that she let go and scolded her, “You were talking about my mother just now. You are a bad person. You have the guts to talk but not admit it.”

The woman rubbed her arm and denied, “I’ve said I didn’t say anything about your mother. Don’t look for trouble here. Go play somewhere else.”

Gu Bei, who had rushed to the scene, stood in front of Gu Xi and spoke out for her. “I heard it too. Please apologize to my parents and my sister!”

Gu Bei was young but imposing. He looked just like the smaller version of Gu Zhan.

The woman did not want to argue with the two kids. She called her friends and prepared to leave, but Gu Bei and Gu Xi stopped them and demanded an apology.

As they argued, the commotion grew louder and louder, attracting the attention of everyone in the banquet, including Gu Zhan and Su Luo, who was dancing in the middle of the dance floor.

The two had just finished dancing a song when they vaguely heard the voices of Gu Bei and Gu Xi at the liveliest part of the crowd.

They were worried about the twins, so they quickly went forward to check on the situation.

When they came to the place where the few of them were arguing, Gu Zhan immediately recognized that the woman who accused Gu Xi of bitting her and should apologize to her was the eldest daughter of the Chen family, Chen Wang.

That woman had always been domineering and mean because her family was wealthy. Not everyone liked her.

Chen Wang’s attitude was rude. She did not have much patience when it came to children. Moreover, these two children kept asking her to apologize and stop her from leaving.

Chen Wang was frustrated. Anyway, she thought that adults would not believe the accusation from a child. She lifted her hand and was about to push Gu Xi and Gu Bei away.

She scolded, “Since your parents didn’t teach you manners, I’ll teach you on behalf of them then! I must teach a naughty child like you to behave from a young age. Since you dare to bite me today, you might be a murderer one day.”

When Chen Wang was about to push, someone grabbed her wrist tightly.

Chen Wang turned around. The person who grabbed her wrist was Gu Zhan, who looked angry.

Su Luo stood in front of the twins.

“How dare you bully the kids! They are young, and you are an adult.”

Su Luo mocked Chen Wang.

Chen Wang shook off Gu Zhan’s hand, revealing the deep bite marks on her arm. “Your daughter bit me first. She didn’t let me leave even after she bit me!”

Chen Wang was afraid that Gu Bei and Gu Xi would tell Su Luo and Gu Zhan that she had spoken ill of them, so she accused Gu Xi first.

Even if Gu Xi and Gu Bei told the truth, she would be able to say they were only looking for an excuse to bite her.

When Su Luo saw the bite mark, and blood had started to seep out from the surrounding skin, she knew it was a severe bite.

However, Su Luo asked her daughter about the situation, “Xixi, tell mommy, what exactly happened?”

Chen Wang’s hand froze. She recalled what she had said earlier and gulped to suppress the guilty feeling that rose in her, “You are his mother. So I will tell you about it. First of all, your daughter came to bite me without any reason. After that, she even eavesdropped on my conversation. Miss Su, may I ask if you have taught your daughter well?”

As if someone had stepped forward to protect her, Gu Xi, who had pretended to be calm just a moment ago, cried.

“Mommy, I didn’t bite her for no reason. It was this aunty’s fault first. I am not a bad child, nor am I an unreasonable child. It was this aunty who speaks ill of mommy first. I asked him to apologize, but he refused to apologize.”

Su Luo was clear about her daughter’s character. She had always been obedient and rarely did such impulsive things.

There must be a reason. Out of the trust in Gu Xi, Gu Zhan let go of Chen Wang’s wrist and squatted down to look at Gu Xi.

“Tell daddy what happened.”

“Daddy, I was playing over there and accidentally heard this aunty say that my father is not Gu Zhan, but someone called Lin Tian. I want to tell him that my father is Gu Zhan, not Lin Tian. She said this in front of so many adults. These adults will think that my father is Lin Tian. I was angry, so I bit her.”

Gu Xi might be young, but she was clear-headed and logical. She told the whole story straightforwardly and clearly. Su Luo was angry.

Su Luo had heard this kind of nonsense a lot, but no one said that in front of her. She turned a blind eye to it. But she could not tolerate someone who said that in front of her kids.

“Miss, it seems like you were the one who started this? Why did you spread a rumor without any proof? I believe that you are a smart and a normal adult. As an adult, shouldn’t you know spreading rumors isn’t good?”

Su Luo’s face was cold. Chen Wang was anxious and babbled.

“It’s your daughter who happened to hear it. I didn’t intend to tell her that.”

Su Luo sneered when Chen Wang blamed her daughter. “It doesn’t seem to matter if my daughter hears it or not. Shouldn’t you apologize for what you have said? You are spreading rumors without any proof! That is slandering someone.”

“Everyone gossips about that. I don’t believe that Miss Su hasn’t heard these words before. How can you only ask me to apologize? Make them all apologize if you can!”

Chen Wang’s attitude was arrogant. She seemed to be sure that Su Luo and Lin Tian had an ambiguous relationship, so she blurted it out.

“As for me, I’ve seen you and Lin Tian alone in a room many times. Can you swear that you have nothing to do with Lin Tian? No one would believe what you say, Miss Su. That trivial matter between you and Lin Tian was no longer a secret. Only Gu Zhan can bear with the rumors and still love you.”
