Chapter 773: The Seats With Clearly Distinguishable Levels

The atmosphere turned stiff instantaneously.

Zhong Xiaoxiao looked at Xie Yuning incredulously.

She had known this person was brainless, but she never expected her to be that brainless.

Just as the other classmates were gasping in shock internally, they were paying close attention to Gu Qingjiu’s response.

It wasn’t that they hadn’t suspected Gu Qingjiu underwent plastic surgery, but that face indeed looked natural. Back then they weren’t too sure what Gu Qingjiu looked like either, only that she wasn’t good-looking.

Add to the fact that Zhong Xiaoxiao had said earlier that it wasn’t the result of plastic surgery, they didn’t give much thought about it.

Now that Xie Yuning was accusing her of that in everyone’s presence, the suspicion in everyone’s hearts swayed left and right like a small flame that could not be extinguished.

If it were someone else, they might have said, “Why are you asking? Do you wish to undergo plastic surgery yourself?”

And then just skirt over this topic with a laugh.

But Gu Qingjiu simply refused to.

She chose the most direct method—abruptly pinching Xie Yuning’s chin, using such great force that the latter wasn’t even able to budge an inch. Amid her frightened and astonished gaze, Gu Qingjiu touched Xie Yuning’s cheek and let out an unbelievable ‘tsk’. “It’s been so many years, and this filthy mouth of yours remains incapable of spouting anything but vile words. What a foul stench!”

Whoosh!

She then shook off Xie Yuning.

Everyone went speechless.

They were dumbfounded.

Zhong Xiaoxiao, too, froze in surprise. She glanced at Gu Qingjiu, then at Xie Yuning, before quickly lowering her head.

She was afraid that Xie Yuning would catch her lips arching upwards involuntarily.

Xie Yuning was completely dumbfounded. When she finally snapped out of her shock, she got to her feet furiously, “You with the surname Gu, are you courting death?”

She was a gangster girl back in high school, and even after so many years, the boorish air about her had yet to change much.

Especially now that she had found a solid backing.

Gu Qingjiu leaned backward and replied lazily and innocently, “How funny. It was you who tried to pick a fight.”

Her calm and silently strong yet restrained manner contrasted sharply with Xie Yuning who looked entirely consumed by anger.

It made Xie Yuning look like an unreasonable shrew in comparison.

This was all thanks to being unconsciously influenced by Hilda.

When one hung out with someone like Hilda, it was difficult not to develop such a disposition.

“You...”

Xie Yuning pointed a finger at Gu Qingjiu, her face green with anger. Zhong Xiaoxiao immediately stood up to step in as a mediator. “Alright, now that everyone is present, we can commence our gathering. Yuning, you shouldn’t have spouted nonsense about others getting plastic surgery the moment you come up. To put it bluntly, it’s slander. Qingjiu has just finished her training in the troops and maybe reckless in her actions. Don’t get too worked up.”

These words also served as a reminder to Xie Yuning, that if she were to get into a physical fight with Gu Qingjiu, she would be no match for Gu Qingjiu.

When Xie Yuning heard the words ‘finished her training in the troops’, her face indeed turned stiff for a brief moment.

She retracted her hand right away, rolled her eyes, then walked towards the main seat at the gathering table.

“I won’t stoop to the same level as such a person.”

The contempt towards Gu Qingjiu was blatant in those words.

Zhong Xiaoxiao quietly flashed a thumbs-up at Gu Qingjiu, then turned her head and said to her with a smile, “Let’s go, Qingjiu, it’s time to eat.”

Gu Qingjiu nodded.

Then followed Zhong Xiaoxiao over.

Seeing Zhong Xiaoxiao bring Gu Qingjiu over to sit, Zhong Xiaoxiao frowned. But recalling what just happened, she restrained herself from saying something.

She simply watched as Gu Qingjiu sat down to her side, with Tang Han and a few other old classmates between them.

The distinguishable levels at the class gathering could be seen from this.
