Adorable Twins: My Mother Is a Cool Miracle Doctor! Chapter 38

Chapter 38

Testimony

“I heard that Xiao Qi got scalded? Where was she scalded? Please don’t tell me it’s her face. It would ruin the poor girl’s life!” w.a.n.g Shi said hypocritically.

Gu Si ‘er noticed her supporter had arrived and hurried over, covering her face. “Mother, Eldest Sister poured boiling water on my face. My face… sob sob How will I ever face others in the future?”

“What happened? Let me see!” w.a.n.g Shi’s eyes gleamed, pretending to be concerned.

Gu Si ‘er lowered her hand, and gasps echoed through the crowd.

“This… Doctor, please treat Xiao Qi quickly! Can her face be treated?” someone exclaimed.

The doctor arrived and examined Gu Si ‘er with a serious expression. “I will a.s.sess the situation.”

Qian Xi returned to Gu Qingluan and whispered, “The doctor is from the Fleeting Year House. It seems the Eldest Madam was prepared for this.”

Gu Qingluan remained unfazed and smiled at the chaotic scene.

As the doctor attended to Gu Si ‘er, Madam w.a.n.g turned to Gu Qingluan and greeted her with a smile. “Qin Luan, it has been years since we last met. I could barely recognize you.”

“Is that so? You have left a lasting impression on me. I couldn’t forget you even if I tried,” Gu Qingluan replied.

w.a.n.g Shi’s expression slightly changed.

This girl turned out to be different from what she had imagined.

w.a.n.g Shi had thought Gu Qinluan was just a brainless fool, but unexpectedly, Gu Qinluan carried herself with such grace and seemed no less impressive than w.a.n.g Shi’s own daughter.

w.a.n.g Shi adjusted her emotions slightly. “We should have had a pleasant reunion, but… sigh, I never expected such an accident to happen. Xiao Qi claims that you splashed boiling water on her face. Why would you do such a thing?”

“Yes, I’m curious too. Why would Little Seven falsely accuse me?” Gu Qingluan retorted casually.

“Nonsense! Do you think I would splash boiling water on my own face just to frame you?” Gu Si ‘er screamed.

“Qingluan, if it was indeed you, then admit it. Otherwise, it would be one mistake on top of another. Even though you have just returned, I cannot tolerate such behavior!” w.a.n.g Shi’s tone was official.

Before Gu Qingluan could respond, Gu Si ‘er interjected, “Mother, Fifth Sister was also present at the time. She witnessed it herself and can testify for me!”

w.a.n.g Shi turned to Gu Qingluan and addressed Gu Qin’er, “Qin’er, is what Little Seven said true? Speak the truth about what you saw, no lying allowed!”

Gu Qin’er quickly glanced at Gu Qingluan and hesitated, “It… it was Xiao Qi who accidentally tripped and b.u.mped into the tea table, causing the scalding hot water to spill on her own face. It has nothing to do with Eldest Sister.”

The people present all showed surprise on their faces.

Gu Si ‘er was the most incredulous. “Fifth Sister, you’re talking nonsense!”

It infuriated her!

Why would Fifth Sister help that despicable Gu Qingluan!

She herself was Gu Si’er’s own blood sister!

w.a.n.g Shi paused, squinting her eyes as she asked, “Are you sure it was just Xiao Qi who fell and injured herself?”

“Yes!” Gu Qin’er nodded firmly, swearing by her words.

Gu Qingluan stared at Gu Qin’er’s face, silently contemplating.

What was Gu Qin’er up to?

She couldn’t recall being close sisters with Gu Qin’er.

Could it be that Gu Qin’er wanted to defect to her side?

Hah, wasn’t Gu Qin’er always devoted to Gu Lingxue?

Sensing Gu Qingluan’s gaze, Gu Qin’er smiled at her, displaying a self-a.s.sured demeanor that was more reserved than five years ago.

Sixteen years old… she had grown into a young lady.

She had changed, and naturally, Gu Qin’er had changed too.

However, old habits die hard.

While she was a soul from another world, what about Gu Qin’er? Could her true nature be altered?

With Gu Qin’er being the sole witness to testify in favor of Gu Qingluan, and being Gu Si ‘er’s own sister, it was impossible for her to intentionally harm Gu Si ‘er. Therefore, everyone believed Gu Qin’er’s words.

Gu Si ‘er had accidentally injured herself, but in her anger, she deliberately framed Gu Qingluan.

w.a.n.g Shi scolded angrily, “You troublesome girl! You injured yourself because of your own carelessness, how can you falsely accuse your older sister?”

Gu Si ‘er had yet to recover from the shock of Gu Qin’er’s “betrayal” and argued in frustration, “That’s not true! It was clearly her who harmed me! Fifth Sister, why are you helping this b*tich?”

But at that moment, w.a.n.g Shi suddenly shouted, “Outrageous!”
