Change her clothes? How could it be such a coincidence? Yang Xi was wearing the exact same gown as Gu Ruochu. Otherwise, Gu Yanwei would not have been so sure that it was her.
Huo Zijun carefully recalled what had happened. Although the sky had been a little dark, he could not have mistaken her for someone else.
He then remembered that "Gu Ruochu" had only revealed half of her face just. From his viewpoint, he did not see much of a difference. In addition to their similar features, the gown on her body had completely confused his judgment.
He never thought that he would be made a fool out of everyone when he had been the one planning to set up Gu Ruochu.
Huo Zijun's lips curled into a cold and sinister smile.
He had really underestimated Gu Ruochu. She had managed to turn the tables in such a short period of time.
"Gu Ruochu, don't lie. You were clearly hooking up with my second brother. Auntie, don't believe this b * tch. I clearly saw Gu Ruochu and my second brother kissing!" Huo Jingjing shouted from the side. She did not care that there were many people present. She even raised her voice, hoping that more people would hear her. "This Yang Xi must have colluded with Gu Ruochu!
"Auntie, you know that Gu Ruochu has always been an unruly woman. There's a high chance that she has secretly hooked up with Second Brother. When the time comes, you'll just have to wait for the Huo family to raise a wild child for her."
Even now, Huo Jingjing still wanted to embarrass Gu Ruochu.
There were many people present, and Huo Jingjing wanted to destroy her reputation.
The smile in Gu Ruochu's eyes gradually disappeared as an ice-cold look came over her eyes.
Yang Xi silently stood at the side . However, she was inexplicably worried about Gu Ruochu's fate in the Huo family. If she couldn't protect herself, she would definitely be devoured by these scums.
Did her husband not care about her?
Gu Ruochu suddenly took a step forward and walked straight towards Huo Jingjing. Her high and mighty aura shocked everyone. It scared Huo Jingjing so much that she was a little confused. A hard slap to the face made her even more confused.
"That's enough, Huo Jingjing! My husband, the Huo family, and I have nothing to do with you, an illegitimate daughter. Remember your identity in the Huo family!"
Huo Jingjing shrieked like a crazy woman, she wanted to pounce on Gu Ruochu, but Huo Zijun held her down tightly.
Accusing her of being an illegitimate daughter in front of so many people made Huo Jingjing feel completely humiliated.
Her face burned with pain as she suppressed the scream in her throat. The look in her eyes was vicious as if she wanted to tear her sister-in-law apart. "Gu Ruochu, my brother doesn't like you at all. He loves Sister Yanwei! Even if you put in a lot of effort, you won't be able to get my brother's heart. My brother has always loved Sister Yanwei!"
Zhou Yunxi supported Huo Jingjing's words. She deliberately raised her voice and said, "That's right. Yanwei is so outstanding. What man wouldn't like her? She doesn't want to let go of the man she loves. What's the difference between you and a mistress? If you let him go, you can still have a good reputation!"
Zhou Yunxi's opinion was still as unscrupulous as ever.
Gu Yanwei stood beside Huo Jingjing with an innocent face. She did not utter a sound to refute their claims.
As soon as Huo Jingjing's words left her mouth, everyone's expression changed.
It was rumored that Huo Nanchen liked his assistant, Madam Huo's older sister. With such a marriage and such an awkward relationship between the three of them, Madam Huo must have had a hard time holding it in.
Suddenly, a path opened up in the middle of the crowd.
The few people who were at the center of the storm subconsciously looked over. The faint light from the surrounding shone on the tall figure, gradually revealing his god-like features.
Noble, cold, and dangerous.
He strode forward with his long legs, step by step, walking straight towards Gu Ruochu.
Gu Ruochu suddenly blocked out the entire surroundings. All she could see was Huo Nanchen and the wild daisies behind him.
