Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself Chapter 1477 - 1477 The President's Bottom Line

Chapter 1477 - 1477 The President's Bottom Line

1477 The President’s Bottom Line

An Chen and An Long had been hiding in the capital and waiting for orders. They had just returned to Li City today and found out that the president was married. They heard from their brothers that the president doted on this young madam very much. Now that An Long was caught complaining about her behind the president’s back and was even heard by the young madam and the president, he had definitely crossed the president’s bottom line!

An Long’s heart trembled, and his eyes were filled with panic. Only then did he realize what he had just said. However, he was right! That woman was indeed vicious. He did not know why the president would marry her.

He was the captain of the shadow guards in the capital and was deeply trusted by the president. He was the president’s trusted aide. He had just casually said a few words, so the president would not punish him.

Qiao Xi looked indifferently at the shadow guards kneeling in front of her. Gu Zheng did not let them get up, so they lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound. They obediently knelt on the floor.

After a long time, Gu Zheng slowly said, “An Chen, bring them down to rest.”

An Chen instantly heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. He hurriedly left with his companions. Before he left, he wanted to say something to An Long when Gu Zheng’s cold voice came from behind. “An Long, Young Madam asked you a question just now. Why didn’t you answer?”

The study instantly fell silent, and the air seemed to have frozen.

Only then did everyone remember that Qiao Xi had asked An Long, ‘Then what do you think I should do?’

Qiao Xi smiled as she looked at An Long. Her exquisite face was extremely stunning.

An Long thought that Mrs. Gu was just a woman with good looks but nothing else. He looked at Gu Zheng and gritted his teeth. “Madam, are you sure you want to hear it?”

Qiao Xi glanced at Gu Zheng. The next second, Gu Zheng stood up and walked to the French windows with his back facing everyone.

An Long looked at this scene in confusion. Did the president mean that he would not care about their conversation? Even if he said something offensive, the president would not blame him?

He was the president’s shadow guard. As long as the president did not punish him, what could a weak rich madam do to him?

After a few seconds of silence, An Long said righteously, “Mrs. Gu, I’ve heard about you and Kang Qingzhi. Since you know that Kang Qingzhi manipulated things behind the scenes and stole your perfume recipes, why didn’t you tell Kang Ru directly? This way, not only can you suppress Kang Qingzhi, but you can also prevent the Kang family from losing money. Isn’t this killing two birds with one stone for you?”

An Long looked at Qiao Xi with a trace of disdain in his eyes. What was the use of just being good-looking? She was just a stupid woman. This woman was not worthy of the president at all!

Qiao Xi glanced at him indifferently and chuckled. “It sounds very reasonable, but have you ever thought about what the Kang family will do if I expose Kang Qingzhi in front of Kang Ru?”

An Long was instantly speechless. Actually, he had already thought of the outcome. Since Kang Ru had already helped Kang Qingzhi hide it, he would naturally pretend not to know anything and continue to think of ways to let Kang Qingzhi win the championship. Only then would the Kang family not suffer any losses.

He gritted his teeth. Even if that was the truth, he would not lower his head in front of this delicate rich madam.

An Long raised his head and stood on the moral high ground to criticize. “Mrs. Gu, you’re the daughter of the Kang family. They’re your family! You suffered five years ago, but time has pa.s.sed. It’s time for you to let go. Why be so vicious to your family?”

Qiao Xi’s eyes curved into crescents as she couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Oh! In that case, you know about what happened five years ago too! Gu Zheng’s shadow guards are really omnipotent. You even know my secrets!

“Since you’ve heard of what happened five years ago, you should know that Kang Jichuan almost killed me five years ago. Now, just for the sake of kinship, you want me to forgive them and even sacrifice myself to fulfill their wish?”

An Long was still unwilling to lower his head. “Mrs. Gu, even if you don’t think about the Kang family, you should think about the president. If you do this, you’ll—”

Before he could finish, An Long’s voice suddenly stopped. A cold dagger was pressed against his neck. He was Gu Zheng’s shadow guard and was naturally used to fighting and killing. The trace of fear in his heart quickly dissipated.

Qiao Xi’s expression was calm, and the corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile. She held the dagger and played with it for a few seconds. Then, she bent down slightly, raised her hand, and stabbed the back of An Long’s hand.

“Mrs. Gu, you…” An Long grunted. The sharp pain on the back of his hand made cold sweat break out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth.
