Gu Qingchen did not stop and continued, “My upbringing was excellent, so I don’t mind showing everyone what happened that day. It’s just that your performance that day was lackluster. Not to mention upbringing, you were like a shrew. It made me learn a lot.”
Luo Qiaolian was stunned, and Gu Qingchen’s words were like a heavy bomb exploding in everyone’s hearts.
Rong Qingtian frowned. He was thinking about what Gu Qingchen had said earlier.
Luo Qiaolian and her niece said Luo Qingyan was Rong Yu’s fiancée and that they were married. She, Luo Qiaolian, was the mistress of the Rong Group!
Just because Rong Qingtian doted on Luo Qiaolian did not mean he was brainless. All along, there was only one thing that he and his father thought the same way.
That was that the Rong Group had to be inherited by Rong Yu.
Rong Yu was definitely the first choice in their hearts.
Luo Qiaolian had always played the role of a gentlewoman in front of Rong Qingtian. Moreover, she had repeatedly expressed that she was not interested in the Rong Group. Luo Qiaolian would be happy if she had Gu Qingtian and her son in this life.
Luo Qiaolian had previously asked Rong Qingtian to let her son Rong Cheng enter the Rong Group. However, Rong Qingtian disqualified Rong Cheng from entering the Rong Group because Rong Cheng made a mistake. He had never thought Luo Qiaolian had done this because she wanted to compete for the Rong Group.
However, if Luo Qiaolian had really said those words, Rong Qingtian should re-evaluate his wife’s true thoughts.
Could it be Luo Qiaolian really wanted to fight for the Rong Group? But she did not show any intention in front of him.
If that was really the case, then Luo Qiaolian’s acting skills were too good!
Thinking about it, Rong Qingtian felt a chill. He could not imagine the person next to him, the petite wife he doted on, was so thoughtful.
Of course, he could not rule out that Gu Qingchen was speaking nonsense. However, Gu Qingchen’s words had planted a seed in his heart.
In the past, Rong Qingtian had never thought Luo Qiaolian would fight for the Rong Group. But now, he was starting to doubt her.
Gu Qingchen wanted this effect. To Luo Qiaolian, her husband’s doubt was also a fatal blow.
“Hehe, I didn’t expect that in modern society, there are still women who want to be the empress dowager Cixi and the mastermind behind the curtain. If she wants to be Wu Zetian, then the Rong Group... Hehe.”
Gu Qingchen only said half of her words. Although she did not finish the sentence, everyone understood.
In Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian made the world of the Li family become the world of the Wu family. If Luo Qiaolian really had the chance to take control of the Rong Group, then the Rong Group would probably change to the Luo Group.
Even Old Master Rong was now looking at Luo Qiaolian in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
Luo Qiaolian did not expect Gu Qingchen to retort her. Gu Qingchen did not give her any time to catch her breath.
After living in a large family for a long time, the way people spoke would change. They liked to beat around the bush. However, Gu Qingchen was very straightforward, which almost made Luo Qiaolian vomit blood.
Under such circumstances, Luo Qiaolian only had one way, and that was to pretend to faint.
She absolutely could not confront Gu Qingchen. If Gu Qingchen brought out the evidence, everything she had worked on for many years would go down the drain.
Her body moved with her heart, and she fainted as soon as she said it.
Luo Qiaolian was an expert in acting. She was pretending to faint, and it was nothing to her.
Suddenly, Luo Qiaolian “fainted” in her husband Rong Qingtian’s arms. Her speed was comparable to that of a movie queen.
“Mom, what happened to you? Not good. She fainted. She must have hit her head just now and was provoked by someone. That’s why mom fainted.”
Rong Cheng was indeed Luo Qiaolian’s son. At this moment, his reaction was fast.
“Doctor, quickly take a look at her. What’s going on?” Rong Qingtian was interrupted by Luo Qiaolian’s sudden fainting. He anxiously asked the family doctor to check Luo Qiaolian’s condition.
The family doctor also looked back and forth for a long time, but there was still some hesitation and hesitation in his words.
Rong Qingtian was anxious. He yelled at the family doctor, “What’s going on? Why did you faint? Have you found out?”
Gu Qingchen smiled and said, “As a doctor, you can only treat illnesses, but you can’t treat people who pretend to faint. Don’t make things difficult for them.”
Pfft!
This time, even Old Master Rong looked at Gu Qingchen with a twitch in the corner of his eyes.
This girl was really straightforward.
Old Master Rong could also see that Luo Qiaolian was pretending to faint. She was trying to find a way out of this situation.
After all, the Rong family could not ask for the surveillance footage. No matter what, Luo Qiaolian was a member of the Rong family. It was fine if they knew about this kind of embarrassing matter. But if outsiders knew about it, the Rong family would lose face.
The family doctor clenched his fist and coughed lightly, indicating that he did not speak. He knew Luo Qiaolian was pretending to faint. But he was only a family doctor, so how could he expose his employer?
As a doctor, he did not want to lie, so he could only not express anything.
“Nonsense! Why would my mother pretend to faint? Gu Qingchen, don’t be so insidious!”
Rong Cheng naturally had to protect his mother. He was already full of hostility towards Gu Qingchen.
Gu Qingchen shrugged, “We all know whether it’s an act or not. Have you ever seen a few people who fainted and lost consciousness clench their fists so tightly and look so ferocious?”
Everyone looked at Luo Qiaolian. As expected, Luo Qiaolian clenched her fists with all her might. However, after hearing Gu Qingchen’s words, she quickly released her fists.
However, her eyes were closed. So, she did not know that her little action was witnessed by everyone.
The members of the Rong family wanted to laugh but felt embarrassed. They could only follow the example of the family doctor and clenched their fists to block their mouths.
Some coughed lightly, some lowered their heads, and their shoulders trembled.
Rong Cheng naturally saw it too. He immediately felt as irritated as if someone had slapped him hard on the face.
Rong Qingtian felt awkward. He must have been angry about Luo Qiaolian faking her fainting.
He had lost a lot of faces today.
Although they were all members of the Rong family, they were all branches of the Rong family after all. What Luo Qiaolian had done was too embarrassing for him!
It was the first time that Rong Qingtian felt Luo Qiaolian was too ignorant and did not understand the big picture.
“What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and send your mom upstairs! Humph, you’re embarrassing yourself!” Rong Qingtian also lost his temper and roared.
Rong Cheng was so scared that he trembled. Then, he quickly carried the unconscious Luo Qiaolian upstairs.
Gu Qingchen and Rong Yu were smiling the whole time. But everyone knew that they were mocking Luo Qiaolian.
