At that moment, when Gu Qingcheng spoke, Ye Rong’s face turned extremely unsightly. freeweb(n)ovel.com

“Qing… Sister Qingcheng…”

She stammered, calling Gu Qingcheng’s name, her body trembling uncontrollably, tears spilling over, exuding an aura of fragility like a delicately poised porcelain doll.

Gu Qingcheng’s eyes were cold as she stared at Ye Rong.

She had known Lu Chi before she knew Ye Rong.

Back then, Ye Rong was just as meek and delicate as she was now, a sight that made everyone reluctant to scold her for her mistakes.

In both her past and present life, Gu Qingcheng couldn’t be bothered with Ye Rong.

Especially now, in her reborn life, where she only sought revenge, she had no time for someone like Ye Rong, who appeared weak but harbored deep schemes.

“I’m sorry, it was my fault back then.” Ye Rong’s face was full of remorse as she admitted her mistake. “Sister Qingcheng, it’s been so many years, please forgive me. I know I was wrong.”

Gu Qingcheng was pointed in her response, “If you truly knew you were wrong, you should explain it to Lu Chi yourself.”

Ye Rong’s eyes widened in horror, shaking her head vigorously.

“No, I can’t tell Brother Lu Chi about what happened back then.”

Gu Qingcheng questioned Ye Rong, “Is it that you can’t tell him, or you’re afraid to tell him?”

Ye Rong was taken aback, at a loss for words under Gu Qingcheng’s interrogation.

“I… I’m afraid to tell…

“So you’re afraid to tell Lu Chi about what happened back then, and you made me carry the blame for so many years?” Gu Qingcheng scoffed. “It’s fine that I’ve been shouldering the blame for you all these years, but don’t shamelessly come to me now, conveniently forgetting the past and only focusing on getting me to play matchmaker for you and Lu Chi. What are you to me? What right do you have to ask this of me?”

Ye Rong was shocked at Gu Qingcheng’s scathing words. In her memory, Gu Qingcheng had always been cold to her but never spoke so harshly.

She remembered how she had schemed against Gu Qingcheng, causing her to take the fall and almost ruining her relationship with Lu Chi.

She had wronged Gu Qingcheng, and Gu Qingcheng’s mockery today was well-deserved.

“Sister Qingcheng… you… you…

“Ye Rong, Lu Chi is still asking me about what happened back then, and I haven’t told him the truth to this day. So don’t provoke me,” Gu Qingcheng’s gaze was sharp as she stared at Ye Rong. “Especially in the future, it’s best if you avoid the places I appear. Otherwise, if I tell Lu Chi about what happened back then, not only will you not be able to marry him, but you won’t even be worthy of carrying his shoes, Miss Ye!”

Ye Rong was intimidated by Gu Qingcheng’s commanding presence, staring blankly and fearfully at her.

“I… I know you haven’t told Brother Lu Chi about what happened back then, and I’m very grateful to you, Sister Qingcheng,” she cried. “I’m sorry, I was presumptuous today. Don’t worry, I won’t bother you again in the future. I’ll leave now.”

Gu Qingcheng’s lips parted slightly, her tone sharp as a knife, “Get out!”

Ye Rong trembled all over. She turned to leave, but after taking a step, she stopped and looked back at Gu Qingcheng through tearful eyes.

“When you appeared on the boxing ring back then, Brother Lu Chi’s eyes were all on you. I was jealous of you, so I framed and slandered you. I just wanted you away from Brother Lu Chi…”

“I never thought that you didn’t like Brother Lu Chi at all, and when I tried to harm you, not only did you not die, but you also took the blame for me.” “Sister Qingcheng, I have felt guilty and repented. I’m sorry.”

“Save your pretense,” Gu Qingcheng was unimpressed. “If you truly felt guilty, you would have told Lu Chi the truth. Over the years, you had countless opportunities to apologize to me. Did you? You never sought me out, never apologized to me, and never told Lu Chi the truth.”

“Your coming to me today is simply because you have no way to deal with Lu Chi, and you know I’ve been close to him recently, so you thought to use me. In fact, you’re not remorseful for wronging me, but because you failed to harm me.”

Ye Rong was at a loss for words, her embarrassment evident.

“I’m sorry,” she sincerely apologized. “I know it’s too late to apologize to you now, but whether you forgive me or not, I still owe you an apology. Thank you for not telling Lu Chi about me harming you. I won’t bother you again.” Gu Qingcheng ignored Ye Rong, turning back to choose her clothes.

Ye Rong, seeing Gu Qingcheng ignoring her, left in disgrace.

Gu Qingcheng didn’t consider Ye Rong a concern; she wasn’t her enemy, so she focused on the competition.

“Let us welcome the winner of the 82nd Peach Lotus Cup, the principal of the Royal Dance Academy, classical dancer Gu Qingcheng. She will be performing a dance titled ‘Woman.”‘

After deliberation, Gu Qingcheng chose to wear her white dress, her black hair cascading over her shoulders, her face adorned with delicate makeup.

As the stage lights focused on her, applause thundered from the audience even before she began to dance.

When the music started, the applause ceased.

“I gave up everything I had, I nurtured your offspring after marrying you.”

“I swam against the current, I traversed mountains, what exactly do you want to take from me? My soul? My body? What must I do to be free?”

“I am your daughter, your wife, your mother. I am your sister, bound by blood, your beloved whom you vowed to protect forever. I am an individual, my own person, not just a character in a book.”

Gu Qingcheng, unmoved by Ye Rong, continued to prepare for her performance..
