Chapter 457: Mrs. Gu Is So Beautiful Even When She’s Angry
Qiao Xi pretended to be gentle. “Don’t worry, I won’t kill all of you. After all, murder is against the law! How could a weak woman like me do something illegal?”
The men could not help but take a few steps back.
“I can be considered half a doctor. I’ll spare your lives, but I don’t know if you can withstand the pain of being dismembered!”
‘The moment the cold blade touched one of the man’s skin, he trembled in fear. “Don’t! I’l talk!”
Qiao Xi nodded with satisfaction. “If you had been this agreeable earlier, you wouldn’t have suffered so much. Huang Lilan ordered you to use hallucinogenic drugs. This can be considered as concrete evidence.”
The man stuttered, “The person who sent us here… isn’t Madam Gu. It’s Madam Gu’s younger brother, Huang… Huang Wei.”
Qiao Xi’s gaze was slightly cold.
So it was Huang Wei?
That was also because of Huang Lilan. In any case, it was fine as long as it was related to her.
Qiao Xi nodded. “Okay, I understand. Huang Wei actually dared to attack me and Ah Zheng. He’s really audacious. It seems I was too kind. I didn’t teach him a lesson yesterday and he seems to have a short memory. Since that’s the case, then he shouldn’t blame me. You guys, follow me!”
The few of them: “…”
“You’re kind? Would a kind woman beat us up like this? Don’t you feel embarrassed saying this?
Song Shiyu’s eyes widened in disbelief. “P-President, do you like having this kind of wife?”
‘Kind, my *ss!”
Gu Zheng smirked. “How could I not like a woman who is trying her best to protect me? She looks so good even when she’s angry!”
Song Shiyu: “..”
After Qiao Xi left, she took out her phone and sent a message. [Song Shiyu, go and welcome my third brother at the door in ten minutes. ]
Song Shiyu was confused. The divine physician’s disciple, Qin An, was coming. However, what was he doing here?
In the main residence.
Madam Gu didn’t sleep well the whole night and felt uneasy. She looked at the time and realized that those people must have succeeded in their task by now.
The windows of Maple Garden had been sealed, and Gu Zheng had also taken in the poisonous fragrance. Coupled with the poison in his body, it was about time for the effects to be seen.
But why hadn’t Huang Wei contacted her? Didn’t they agree that regardless of whether the plan succeeded or not, he would update her? It was already past six o’clock. Why was there still no news?
“What are you doing so early in the morning?” Gu Weiming was woken up by Huang Lilan, who was tossing and turning in bed. He looked displeased.
Huang Lilan’s face was full of flattery as she said gently, “I’m just worried about Ah Zheng. Although he’s not my biological son, we’ve been mother and son for more than 20 years. How could we not have feelings for each other? I heard that his condition isn’t too optimistic…”
At dawn, everyone from the Gu family had arrived. If Gu Zheng went crazy at this time, everyone would know that he was crazy. In that case, the position of the Gu family’s heir could only belong to Lu Yan. No one would object to it anymore.
There had been no news for such a long time. Huang Wei must have succeeded. If Gu Zheng breathed in even a little of that incense, he would lose his mind.
At this moment, a strange sound came from outside the door.
Gu Weiming opened his eyes unhappily. “What’s that sound?”
Right after that, there was another strange sound as if someone was smashing the door. The sound became more and more urgent.
Gu Weiming got up and shouted unhappily, “Who is it?”
There was a moment of silence outside the door, which made the atmosphere even stranger. Gu Weiming felt that something was wrong, so he got up, put on his coat, and left the bedroom.
Before he could reach the front door, there was a loud bang. The front door of the mansion was kicked open and several dark figures were tossed in. The figures even rolled a few times on the ground before hitting the coffee table until it shook.
Huang Lilan stuck her head out to take a look. Weren’t these the people she had sent out to deal with Gu Zheng? She was immediately alarmed and her fingers trembled slightly. “A-All of you…”
Gu Weiming was furious. “Who are you? Why did you barge in so early in the morning? Guards!”
However, it was quiet outside the villa. The bodyguards who usually guarded the door were nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, a slim figure appeared at the door, followed by a cold voice. “Chairman Gu, I’m really sorry.”
“Qiao Xi?”
Madam Gu opened her mouth in surprise, but Gu Weiming had already shouted angrily.
What did this woman mean by coming to his place early in the morning and throwing in a few men who had been beaten black and blue?

Qiao Xi smiled meaningfully. “Chairman Gu, don’t be angry! You must be furious that I disturbed your sleep, right? I’m also very angry right now, so I came to talk to you.”
Gu Weiming was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He shouted angrily, “What are you doing?!”
Qiao Xi calmly walked into the living room and coldly glanced at Huang Lilan. Then, she reached out and grabbed the man’s collar. Huang Lilan’s flustered face was revealed.
“Don’t be so fierce, Chairman Gu! If you scare me, I might do something. Madam Gu, I think you know these people.”
She walked to the door and threw another person into the house before stepping on him ruthlessly.
Huang Lilan’s expression instantly changed. “Qiao Xi! What are you trying to do!? He’s my younger brother and you have to call him ‘Uncle’! How could you beat up an elder?! Quickly let go of him! Qiao Xi, I thought you were just a little naughty and mischievous, but I never expected you to be so cruel! You dare hit my younger brother? You’re really mad!”
Gu Weiming’s face darkened. “This is Gu Zheng’s uncle. How dare you beat him up like this? Do you still have any etiquette?”
Qiao Xi looked disdainfully at Huang Wei who was lying on the floor and snorted coldly. “So, he’s Madam Gu’s younger brother? I really didn’t expect this! Ahh, that’s a little troublesome, then!”
At the same time, Qin An brought a few doctors from the Medical Association to the Gu family’s residence.
Song Shiyu was shocked.
Qin An said respectfully, “Assistant Song, nice to meet you! My sixth sister said that President Gu was poisoned. Previously, my grandfather had given him treatment but my grandfather is missing now. I’m the successor of the divine physician. I can’t stand by and watch as the poison in President Gu’s body flares up. Bring me to see President Gu.”
Everyone followed Song Shiyu to Maple Garden. Before Qin An could speak, the doctors’ faces changed. “Why does Maple Garden smell like this? This fragrance will worsen the patient’s condition and speed up the poison’s effects! Where did the fragrance come from?”
Song Shiyu was a little nervous, but Qiao Xi had already taught him what to say. “It’s… It’s Madam Gu’s brother. He put out some incense early in the morning. I’ve already cleaned it up, but it still smells.”
The people from the Medical Association were instantly filled with indignation. “They know that President Gu has been poisoned, yet they still put out an incense like this at Maple Garden. How is this any different from killing someone? Mr. Qin, don’t worry. As doctors, other than treating and saving people, we can’t watch others treat a patient like this!”
Qin An also nodded. “Everyone is right. For President Gu’s sake, we have to talk to Madam Gu.”
“That’s right! We’ll ask her what she’s up to. She actually put out this kind of incense at President Gu’s residence. She’s trying to kill him!”
At this moment.
In the Gu family’s residence.
Huang Wei’s face was bruised and swollen as he fell to the floor. A few of his teeth were missing. “Big Sister! Save me! This woman is too scary! She wants to kill me…”
Gu Weiming’s face was ashen. Qiao Xi was really too arrogant. She was close to committing murder in front of the Gu family. She was the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and her every move represented the Gu family.
“Qiao Xi! Is a shrew like you qualified to be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family? I advise you to divorce Gu Zheng and get out of the Gu family. Don’t make things too embarrassing!”
Qiao Xi blinked her eyes innocently. “Chairman Gu, I only beat up Huang Wei yet you want me to divorce Gu Zheng!”
“What else can I do? You can even beat your elders up. You’re disloyal and unfilial, so I’m telling you to get lost from the Gu family. Do you feel wronged?”
Qiao Xi sneered, “Chairman Gu, I hit Huang Wei because I’m disloyal and unfilial? Sigh! I was really stupid to have come to you to uphold justice. It seems that you were also the one who ordered President Gu to be poisoned, then, Chairman Gu? I thought that since you’re Gu Zheng’s father, even a vicious tiger won’t eat its cubs. You couldn’t possibly be trying to kill him, but I really didn’t expect this!”
At the same time, Old Madam Gu woke up.
This piece of good news immediately spread in the old madam’s courtyard. The kitchen also hurriedly prepared breakfast for the old madam. It had been a long time since the old madam woke up so early and was in good spirits.
When the old madam woke up, she wanted to go and see Gu Zheng. Who knew that Maple Garden was empty? When she heard that they had all gone to the main residence, she also went to the main residence..
