"You are presumptuous!"

Gu Huaian angrily raised his hand and slapped Shi Yue.

Shi Yue had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed Gu Huaian's wrist.

The two were in a stalemate.

Gu Huaian was furious: "Shi Yue! Let me go! You uneducated woman!"

Shi Yue stared at Gu Huaian unceremoniously: "Miss Gu, I think you are a guest of the Qiu family, so I am very polite to you. Don't push yourself too far."

"Shi! Don't act like the young lady of the Qiu family in front of me. I'm warning you, Xichen and I have a childhood sweetheart. Our two families are matched, so the position of this young lady should have been mine!"

Shi Yue was also a little angry: "I don't care what you have done before or what you will do in the future, as long as I am still the young lady of the Qiu family, you can never be arrogant in front of me!"

"Mr. Qiu."

The secretary's voice sounded from the second floor at the right time.

Gu Huaian and Shi Yue turned back almost at the same time and looked over.

The secretary was pushing the wheelchair down. Qiu Xi in the wheelchair had a cold face and cold eyes.

Shi Yue paused for a moment and let go.

"Sinking to the west——"

There was a cry in Gu Huaian's voice, as if he had been greatly wronged.

She quickly ran to Gu Xichen: "Xichen, Miss Shi...she didn't mean it, she was just jealous that you and I grew up together."

Qiu Xichen glanced at Gu Huaian indifferently, and happened to see her rubbing her white wrist, with a faint red mark on it.

Then, Qiu Xichen looked at Shi Yue, who was still standing there.

"How do you explain that?"

Shi Yue pursed her lips: "If I say, I didn't mean it, it was self-defense, would you believe it?"

"I'm not blind." Qiu Xichen said coldly.

Shi Yue looked at Qiu Xichen doubtfully.

What does he mean by this?

Did he see that he was holding Gu Huaian's wrist, so he concluded that he had intentionally hurt Gu Huaian?

Or was it that Gu Huaian wanted to slap himself before he saw it?

"Xi Chen, don't question Miss Shi anymore. Although she hurt me, I won't argue with her. For the sake of the two of us growing up together."

Gu Huaian on the side persuaded Qiu Xichen very generously and tolerantly.

But Qiu Xichen ignored her and looked directly at Shi Yue: "Explain clearly!"

Shi Yue pursed her lips and remained silent.

"It was Miss Gu who wanted to slap me. I was in self-defense, so I grabbed her wrist."

"Miss Shi! Please don't spit on me!"

Gu Huaian angrily scolded Shi Yue: "Everyone knows my character, Gu Huaian, how could I want to slap you?!"

Shi Yue took a deep breath and looked at Qiu Xichen.

"There is surveillance here. If you don't believe it, you can call up the surveillance."

As soon as Shi Yue finished speaking, Gu Huaian beside him immediately panicked.

She looked at Qiu Xichen in panic: "Xichen, do you believe me..."

"That's enough!" Qiu Xichen shouted coldly, "Shi Yue, Miss Gu is a guest."

"You doubt me?!" Shi Yue stared at Qiu Xichen in disbelief.

But Qiu Xichen just glanced at her and did not answer her. Instead, he motioned to the secretary to leave.

Gu Huaian on the side immediately said to the secretary: "Secretary Wen, leave it to me. At this time, I happen to be pushing Xi Chen to go for a walk in the garden."

Secretary Wen quickly glanced at Qiu Xichen to see that he had no objection, and then gave his seat to Gu Huaian.

Gu Huaian pushed Qiu Xichen outside. When she passed by Shi Yue, she glanced at her provocatively, with the pride of a winner in her eyes.

Shi Yue stood there, clenching his fists tightly, watching the three of them leave.

A huge grievance hit her heart, and Shi Yue's nose also felt sour.

She gritted her teeth and told herself, don't feel wronged and don't cry!

Now is not the time for her to feel aggrieved. She still needs the title of Young Madam of the Qiu family and Qiu Xichen's help.

It wasn't until the three of them had completely walked out of the hall that Shi Yue closed his eyes weakly.

After a while, Shi Yue slowly opened his eyes.

She took a few deep breaths to calm down, then walked out of the hall and towards the kitchen.

Since Qiu Xichen woke up, she would personally make a bowl of medicinal food for Qiu Xichen every day to repay him for helping her and not forcing her to divorce immediately.

Of course today is no exception.

When he was almost walking to the kitchen, Shi Yue heard the chatter of several cooks coming from the kitchen.

"Do you know? The young lady and Miss Gu just had a quarrel! The two almost came to a fight!"

"Really? Tell me what's going on? Does Third Master know about this?"

"Of course I know. When the two of them started to do something, Third Master was pushed over by Secretary Wen."

"Then how did the third master deal with it? Was it towards Miss Gu? Or was it towards the young lady?"

"Of course it's towards Miss Gu. Miss Gu and our third master have grown up together since childhood. Who are our young ladies? To put it nicely, she just wears the title of young lady. In fact, none of us know,

She is just a tool for happiness."

Shi Yue smiled helplessly.

Yes, she is just a tool used by the Qiu family to make Qiu Xi happy, so who has the right to argue with Gu Huaian?

Then, Shi Yue walked into the kitchen.

As soon as she entered, the voices of discussion suddenly stopped.

The cooks immediately lowered their heads to work, each busy with his own business.

Shi Yue stood at the door and glanced at them lightly.

"Although I am just here to celebrate Xi Chen's birthday, I am also the young lady of the Qiu family, and I and Xi Chen have also received certificates and are a legitimate couple. If I hear someone talking nonsense again, I think I, the young lady, will

We still have the right to fire a cook!"

Shi Yue's voice was so sonorous and powerful that all the cooks in the room were so silent that they almost didn't dare to look up at her.

Then, Shi Yue walked to the freezer as usual, took out the needed medicinal materials, and began to stew the medicinal food for Qiu Xichen.

At the same time, in the back garden of the villa.

Gu Huaian pushed Qiu Xichen to the pavilion and sat down.

She looked at Qiu Xichen with a smile: "Xichen, thank you."

Qiu Xichen gave her a cold look: "I won't do this next time."

Gu Huaian was slightly stunned: "Xichen, what do you mean?"

Qiu Xichen looked directly at Gu Huaian: "Do you really think I don't know what happened?"

Gu Huaian's heart skipped a beat.

She grabbed Qiu Xichen's hand and said urgently: "Xichen, believe me, I never wanted to hurt Miss Shi! Although she took you away, I never thought of making things difficult for her. After all, she is now

She is already your wife in name only."

A wave of irritability suddenly arose.

Qiu Xichen immediately took out the hand held by Gu Huaian and said slightly impatiently: "Miss Gu, please leave immediately!"

Gu Huaian lowered his head slightly, biting his red lips, looking like he was about to cry.

"Xichen, you used to call me Huai'an, and we were already so close. Now you call me 'Miss Gu', is it because of that Shi Yue?"

"No one else's business!"

There was a hint of anger in Qiu Xichen's voice: "Secretary Wen!"

"Yes, Mr. Qiu."

Secretary Wen immediately stepped forward and said very politely: "Miss Gu, please leave."

Gu Huaian looked at Qiu Xichen in disbelief, only to see Qiu Xichen looking into the distance with a deserted expression.
Chapter completed!
