Chapter 450: 450: Don't You Have Any Shame?
The words struck to the core.
Gu Qiaomei had never been cursed to her face like this, and there was nothing she could say to refute Chi Enen’s accusations. Her face turned pale, and her mouth quivered, “I know I’ve wronged you, but Xiao Ya…”
“Chi Ya has also wronged me,” Chi Enen interjected. “At 18, it was the first time she framed me, causing me to lose my first time and flee overseas.”
If it weren’t for that night when Li Beijue happened to be with the boss of Huan Yu. If it weren’t for the fact that she clung to him desperately, leading Li Beijue to mistakenly believe she was throwing herself at him, she would have been taken advantage of by the boss of Huan Yu.
“Five years later, when I returned, she hadn’t stopped. Time and again, she targeted me. Don’t say you didn’t know about it.” Chi Enen’s gaze was cold and sharp as she stared into Gu Qiaomei’s eyes. “Since you’re well aware, what face do you have to come to me and beg me to let her off?”
“Whether it’s you, Chi Ya, or Chi Jianguo, I won’t let any of you off!”
“I know the things you did back then are now beyond the statute of limitations, but that’s okay. Actions always leave traces, and traces always come with a price. Even if I can’t bring you to justice by law, I will make you pay!”
This wasn’t the illegitimate daughter she knew… The one from before may have been stubborn, but she never had the aura she has now.
It was as if she had been completely transformed!
Her eyes filled with defeat, Gu Qiaomei reminded Chi Enen, “No matter what, Jianguo is still your father. For the sake of your father’s face, I beg you to plead with Young Master Li.”
“It seems Aunt Mei still doesn’t understand. I won’t let Chi Ya off, nor will I let Chi Jianguo off!” Chi Enen’s clear, bright eyes appeared to see through one’s heart. “Do you think Chi Jianguo still qualifies as a father?”
Gu Qiaomei’s lips were so pale they were almost invisible, and her face was ashen. Still unwilling to give up the last shred of hope, she clenched her teeth and said, “You were in the Chi family for twenty years, and I never mistreated you. Even if I wronged Lin Ping, I never wronged you. For the sake of those twenty years I treated you well, I don’t ask for anything else, just that you ask Young Master Li to spare my brother.”
True, Gu Qiaomei had never openly troubled her in those 20 years.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to trouble her; she simply couldn’t be bothered to do it openly. Gu Qiaomei’s way of making life difficult was always covert. Every time Chi Ya plotted against her, wasn’t Gu Qiaomei behind it? It was precisely because of Gu Qiaomei’s constant indulgence and protection that Chi Ya dared to frame her time and time again.
Granted, Gu Qiaomei hadn’t overtly troubled her, but wasn’t permitting Chi Ya’s behavior troubling her in itself?
“Li Beijue never targeted anyone in particular, so there’s no question of letting anyone off,” Chi Enen remained unmoved.
Gu Qiaomei became agitated. “How can you say he hasn’t done anything? If not for Young Master Li, how could the Gu family have fallen so quickly? Why would the police have taken my brother away?”
“The reasons President Gu was taken away have long been reported by the media, you can watch the television if you’re unclear on it.” Gu Qiao’an was taken away for suspected kidnapping, not because of Li Beijue!
Without waiting for Gu Qiaomei to speak, Chi Enen coldly stepped back, “If President Gu hasn’t done anything, no one can trouble him. If he really did something, then he’s offended the law, not a particular person. I hope, Aunt Mei, that you won’t speak carelessly in the future, making it seem as though someone has abused their personal power. If you continue to spout nonsense, I’ll sue you for defamation.”
Chi Enen couldn’t be bothered to argue any further, and she stated bluntly, “I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be going now.”
