Chapter 857: Chapter 857: Pregnant (3)

"Alright, Girl Qing, I will shamelessly accept this jade plate on behalf of Grandpa Bai. Quickly, put it in the Bai Family Ancestral Hall and be very careful with it," said Old Master Bai as he carefully handed the jade plate to Father Bai, repeatedly stressing caution.

Already trembling with rage, Guh Siyi’s face turned even paler at this scene, her hands clenched tightly into fists as she struggled to contain her fury.

The red coral sent by Yu Tianyou had been delivered to Old Master Bai’s bedroom by the third generation of the Bai Family, Bai Yiming. Yet her own gift, a pigeon egg-sized Jade Spirit, was merely taken to the Display Room by a servant! But the jade plate given by An Yiqing was personally taken to the ancestral hall by the current Family Head, Bai Yiming’s father!

The difference in treatment was so glaring that only a fool like Guh Siyi would fail to notice!

However, despite being seething with rage, Guh Siyi had no choice but to swallow her pride. As the only daughter of the Guh Family, she couldn’t do anything in front of so many people!

"Sister Siyi, be careful not to harm your health out of anger. It’s okay to lose this time, we still—"

"Who said I’ve lost?!"

Huang Yiyi hadn’t finished her comforting words when Guh Siyi abruptly interrupted her, glaring coldly at her.

At that moment, Huang Yiyi felt as if Guh Siyi’s gaze was like a cold, venomous snake coiled tightly around her neck, making it impossible for her to breathe.

In just a few seconds, Huang Yiyi’s face turned paler and paler, her body shook like chaff, scared stiff. She wanted to scream for help, but no words came out of her gaping mouth.

An Yiqing, who had observed this scene from a distance, simply smiled faintly and took an elegant sip of orange juice from her glass.

She was no saint or do-gooder. When it came to troublesome spirits like Huang Yiyi and Guh Siyi, the fewer there were, the better.

However... An Yiqing’s watery eyes flickered helplessly. It was Old Master Bai’s eightieth birthday, and it would not be appropriate for blood to be spilled. If she hadn’t witnessed this, she might have gotten away with it, but now...

Oh well, for Grandpa Bai’s sake, she would have to step in.

With a resigned smile, An Yiqing held her glass high, greeted her friends nearby, and elegantly turned towards Guh Siyi and Huang Yiyi.

By then, Huang Yiyi’s vision was blurring white, a ringing noise filled her ears, a hidden pain throbbed in her chest, and a strong metallic taste slowly filled her mouth.

Although Guh Siyi hadn’t done anything, Huang Yiyi felt as if she were being devoured bite by bite by an incomparably venomous snake.

She had never seen Guh Siyi like this before!

As Huang Yiyi’s breathing became more laborious and her body shook more violently, a gentle and soft voice sounded from behind Guh Siyi.

"Miss Guh, the reception has already started, why are you standing in such a desolate spot? Are you feeling unwell?"

An Yiqing’s gentle voice was like a sharp blade that fiercely severed Guh Siyi’s angry stare at Huang Yiyi, leaving nothing but remnants in the air.

No longer under Guh Siyi’s control, Huang Yiyi felt as if she had been pardoned. Her body weakened, she slowly slid down against the wall behind her.

Too frightening! Sister Siyi is simply too terrifying! She is definitely not the same cold woman she used to be! Absolutely not!

Huang Yiyi sat collapsed in the corner, gasping for breath and looking on in horror at Guh Siyi and the newly arrived An Yiqing.

This corner was a rarely frequented spot in the vast Bai Family hall, surrounded by dining tables and decorations, hence seldom visited. Meanwhile, in the villa’s main hall, guests mingled, beautiful music and laughter intertwined, but in this corner, it was eerily quiet.
