Chapter 1041: Gu Xiaoqi Gets Wrongly Accused Again
Unable to contain her rage, she struggled fiercely, shouting as she did, "Is there no law left? She was the one who cursed first, she was the one who hit first, why should I be the one to be arrested! What do you want with me? Let me go, let me go!"
Bo Chengyan could only respond in a heavy voice, "If there’s an issue, let’s talk it out rationally. If we are at fault, we are willing to apologize to Miss Dan. Why should someone be arrested?"
It seemed that neither of them were willing to back down, and Dan Lingling was even less willing. Ever since her father took office, no one had ever dared to push her!
Bo Chengyan was also at a loss. Seeing that no one paid attention to them, he had no choice but to turn to Gu Qibao and say, "Xiaoqi, are you really going to let her make a scene like this? Arresting people without knowing the whole story?"
Gu Qibao was somewhat dumbfounded. How did the topic suddenly involve her?
"Exactly," echoed Bo Chengxin, who was also indignant and struggling fiercely, yelling even more fiercely, "Aren’t you the hostess? This is your reception, yet you let someone else run wild without saying a word of fairness. How can you be the host?"
Gu Qibao was even more baffled, thinking, how is this related to me?
She had just come out halfway to see what was happening and was unexpectedly caught in the crossfire?
Dan Lingling snorted, her face full of disgust that she couldn’t hide. She turned to Bo Chengxin without any mercy and said, "Bo Chengxin, you’re truly disgusting. What does this matter have to do with Miss Gu? What justice is there to uphold? You called me a crazy woman, and even had your boyfriend push me. Everyone saw it, so what more do you want to say?"
"Didn’t you also call me sick and hit me?" Bo Chengxin, her face flushed with anger, still refused to give in.
The main issue was that Di Mingjue was there, silent throughout, which made her very upset.
"Why would I hit you if you hadn’t provoked me first?" Dan Lingling said it as if it were nothing.
Bo Chengxin, driven to fury, roared, "You were the one who called me sick first!"
Nonchalant, Dan Lingling remained composed and simply couldn’t be bothered with Bo Chengxin.
Meanwhile, Bo Chengxin struggled so violently that she was red in the face and without any semblance of composure, still struggling relentlessly, "Let me go! Are you bullying me because you can? Why are you arresting me? Let go, let go!"
Seeing that the guards wouldn’t release her and Dan Lingling wouldn’t give her the time of day, while Di Mingjue and Gu Qibao, along with a whole group of people she used to be quite familiar with, just stood there watching the commotion.
No one stepped forward to speak up for fairness, and Bo Chengxin felt like she was about to explode with anger.
It wasn’t that Di Mingjue and the others weren’t speaking up for justice, but with a situation like this—it’s a "he said, she said" scenario where everyone has their own version of the truth—it was difficult to speak up for what’s fair.
Moreover, given that Dan Lingling was the President’s daughter, they had to give her some face in this situation. No, to put it more accurately, compared to Bo Chengxin, they were more inclined to give Dan Lingling the benefit of the doubt for the time being.
Bo Chengxin was indeed too much of a troublemaker.
But in her heart, Bo Chengxin didn’t see it that way. She felt humiliated and was furious because she felt wrongly accused.
She was angry because Dan Lingling stood much higher in status than she did, which was why she was angry.
If it had just been her and Dan Lingling, without onlookers, she might have given in.
But with so many people watching, she didn’t want to submit or apologize; she absolutely had to clear things up in front of all these witnesses.
Yet, as she struggled like a clown, feeling wronged, and screaming in anger, not a single person paid her any attention, as if she were a madwoman.
Moreover, she always suspected that Dan Lingling was purposely sent by Gu Qibao to pick a fight, never expecting that Gu Qibao would be of one heart in public but so disgusting behind the scenes, maintaining a generous facade on the surface while being so vile privately.
