She and the maid were both victims of an unintended incident. Their collision was not intentional, even if it later caused trouble.
But what about these people? She had done nothing to those who pointed fingers at her, so why were they bullying her so fiercely?
She was not a saint, she hadn’t done anything guilty, it was these people who started it!
With these thoughts in Chenxing’s mind, she lost her restraint and courtesy. Unconsciously, her mouth curled upwards. Her every word, every action, it only intensified the ominous sense of gathering storm clouds in the eyes of the guests.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t an it."
"I didn’t an it either."
"I really didn’t an it."
"..."
The apologies echoed around intermittently.
Chenxing did not accept them.
She clasped Gu Shaocheng’s hand, her deanor assertive, pointing at the apologising people, "Get them out, Gu Shaocheng, I never want to see them again. Could you do that for ?"
Gu Shaocheng seed to let her words dictate his actions, but he felt that rely dismissing them was too lenient.
Since Chenxing never wanted to see them again, fine, he knew how to deal with them. He was originally trying to make an example out of sothing, to let everyone know how biased he is towards protecting his own woman. Moreover, helping her seize this opportunity, introduced her to the outside world.
All guests invited today were representatives of subsidiaries managing parts of the Gu Family’s industries. These few female guests were either their companions or family mbers. However, Gu Shaocheng dismissed them all without considering any potential consequences.
Eleven people were involved, one man and ten won. He didn’t bother to investigate their identities, or who they represented. No one was going to escape his wrath, not when his loved one was involved.
"On my turf, you have to follow my rules!"
"In the Gu Family, the guests bullying the host, even in five hundred years, this will absolutely not be tolerated," Gu Shaocheng snapped his fingers, speaking to Nan Baihao, "Get them to kneel and leave. Anyone who has a connection with them must sever ties with the Gu Family. There should never be another chance for Chenxing to see them."
The physical punishnt may seem minor.
Being forced to kneel while leaving the Gu Family was humiliating enough.
But it was made clear that whoever brought the female companions, and whichever family they represented would from now on have their ties with the Gu Family severed. Jobs may be lost, partnerships may be permanently terminated.
And he warned them, there should never be another chance for Chenxing to see them. This was also a warning to other business associates to cut ties quickly with the punished families. If in any public or business gathering in the future, Chenxing happened to co across a person she didn’t want to see, they would bear the consequences themselves.
Gu Shaocheng had the audacity and power to act this way, and his woman deserved the privilege of avoiding whoever she didn’t want to see!
Gu Shaocheng let go of her hand, stood up and firmly held her right hand in his left.
"Do you want to stay at the party with ? Or go back to the courtyard to enjoy the view?" If it hadn’t been for him, she might still be sitting by the pavilion, leisurely watching the flowers bloom and the clouds drift by in the sky.
Co to think of it, he was the root cause of all this!
"I’m thirsty, I want so apple juice."
