Chapter 1049: Those Who Destroy Families Must Be Punished!
"Excellent!" At a time when everyone was silent, Nangong Jin was the first to lead the applause, and he declared with an imposing manner, "Those who destroy families must be condemned. Auntie Fang is domineering, I support you."
As Nangong Jin took the lead, the crowd began to applaud one after another, instantly feeling their blood boil. They shouted in agreement, "Well said, those who destroy families must be condemned!"
"Let those wretched people roll as far away as possible!"
"Let the deceitful receive the punishment they deserve!"
This was a gathering of high society, where with excellence, wealth, and status, many would covet what others have.
Not to mention the Fang family, many of the guests had experienced similar issues, more or less, in their own homes.
Thus, the words of Fang Hao and Nangong Jin resonated deeply with the people present.
No matter the love or hate they had experienced before, once married and a family is formed, they absolutely wouldn’t allow it to be destroyed or torn apart by someone else.
Seeing everyone looking quite satisfied, Fang Hao finally felt a bit of relief in her heart. She quickly turned her head to look for Gu Qibao, walked up to her briskly, took her hand, and asked anxiously, "Third daughter-in-law, don’t be afraid. No matter what has happened, you have us, the Di Family, to support you, and your mother-in-law to back you up."
Touched, Gu Qibao’s eyes reddened, and she nodded vigorously.
Fang Hao tenderly stroked her small face, "Good child, luckily you didn’t drink it. You really scared me to death."
"Mom, I’m okay, don’t worry," Gu Qibao smiled while comforting Fang Hao, "Even if I were to drink, Di Mingjue would have stopped me. Really, don’t worry."
Fang Hao nodded.
In fact, Gu Qibao was still quite frightened, and also felt that she had been too soft-hearted to actually take the juice Bo Chengxin had offered.
It was all because she cherished the friendship of over a decade with Bo Chenghe.
But fortunately, it was only a false alarm.
At this time, Di Mingjue stepped forward, took Gu Qibao into his arms, and said to everyone, "The farce ends here. Everyone should eat if you wish to eat, drink if you wish to drink, and if anyone wants to leave, I won’t insist. Just be at ease and do as you please."
If the party dispersed at such a time, it would obviously be inappropriate. Their staying meant they truly didn’t care about the incident.
At least they were the victors who had punished the wrongdoers.
Therefore, none of the guests left; instead, they cheerfully continued with whatever they were doing.
The Di Family naturally enjoyed seeing the gathering proceed smoothly.
Dan Lingling, seeing that she had no part in this any longer and not feeling very good herself, walked out to get some air in the courtyard.
The most shocked and embarrassed people here were surely Bo Ruijie and Cheng Xinlan, and Bo Chenghe as well.
After the guests resumed their merrymaking and had dispersed, Bo Ruijie finally snapped out of his shock. He seemed to have aged several years in an instant.
Eventually, he stepped forward to approach Gu Qibao and Di Mingjue, bowed deeply, raised his head with tears streaking down, and sighed, "Xiaoqi, Mingjue, I owe you an apology. I never expected the Bo Family to have raised an ingrate for over twenty years. I truly, I am ashamed..."
It was evident that Bo Ruijie was heartbroken and deeply remorseful.
Di Mingjue was silent for a moment before speaking, "Let’s not talk about it anymore now that it’s settled. From now on, just pretend that person doesn’t exist."
"Yes," Bo Ruijie nodded, his shame evident. Wiping away tears, he said, "Then we’ll take our leave first. I still need to find my eldest son."
Bo Chengyan’s whereabouts were still unknown.
