Poison Genius Consort 2: Emperor’s Swallow - Chapter 20

Chapter 20: Etiquette

After arriving at the Gu Clan’s residence, Gu Feiyan was led to an extravagant living room.

Just as she reached the door, she saw Second Master Gu and his first wife, Madam Wang, sitting at the head of the table. From the opposite end side, were two guests from the Qi Clan––Qi Yu and Qi Fufang.

Qi Yu’s white jade belt gave him a magnificent appearance. Although he was a military official, he lacked the unruly heroic spirit that Cheng Yifei had. Instead, he had the airs of a scholar. Of course, in Gu Feiyan’s eyes, that was just a lie.

Next to him was his sister, Qi Fufang. This young lady was the best friend of Princess Huaining. She and Princess Huaining were both beautiful and vicious snakes.

The room was full of people talking and laughing. It didn’t seem like they were discussing a marriage annulment at all. Second Master Gu even had the air of a Great Elder. Madam Wang’s face was full of flattery. When Gu Feiyan appeared, the room immediately quieted down.

Seeing that Gu Feiyan was covered in makeup, messy hair and an old quilted jacket, Qi Yu immediately frowned and turned his head to the side, as if looking at Gu Feiyan would dirty his eyes. On the other hand, Qi Fufang started to seriously size her up, her eyes full of criticism.

Gu Feiyan ignored them, straightened her back, and walked in gracefully.

However, just as she walked past Qi Fufang, the snake woman burst into laughter. “Second Master Gu, is this how you, the Gu Clan, treat guests? How dare she come here with such a ghastly appearance? Your Gu Clan doesn’t respect us, two siblings, very much, right? ”

Second Master Gu couldn’t bear to see her like that either, so he said with a sullen face, “Feiyan, why do you have no etiquette? Why don’t you go and tidy up before coming over? ”

Respect? Etiquette?

Gu Feiyan stopped in her tracks, disbelief was written all over her face.

They had come in the middle of the night to end the engagement and had dragged her up from her deep slumber so that she had to rush out of the palace against the northern wind. How could they still have the face to talk about respect and etiquette?

Tonight, she wouldn’t teach them about respect and etiquette. God knows when they would wake up from their self-satisfied fantasies!

“Sure!” Gu Feiyan agreed readily, then turned to look at Qi Fufang and added, “However, I’ll have to trouble Miss Qi and Young Master Qi to wait at the gate for a moment.”

“What do you mean?” Qi Fufang asked unhappily.

Gu Feiyan gave her a very polite smile. “When I’m done dressing myself, I’ll bring a group of people to welcome you all to come back to end my marriage! Isn’t that polite enough?”

When she said this, everyone was stunned. Although they had heard that Gu Feiyan had changed into someone else, it was still inconceivable for them to witness it with their own eyes.

Qi Fufang quickly recovered and became angry. “Gu Feiyan, you’re too presumptuous!”

Second Master Gu scolded her urgently. “Feiyan, don’t be rude!”

Gu Feiyan treated Second Master Gu like air. She looked straight at Qi Fufang, the corner of her mouth curled up in ridicule, and said, “It seems like Miss Qi isn’t satisfied yet, otherwise, my Second Uncle would have had everyone in the house light up and wake up to welcome you, so that no one would misunderstand what you guys came here for in the middle of the night!”

Gu Feiyan’s words made Qi Fufang’s face turn red.

Qi Fufang was both angry and embarrassed as she scolded, “Gu Feiyan, you know very well who is the one that has done something shameful! A slut like you who has an impeccable character and doesn’t know shame, who is able to seduce men everywhere isn’t worthy to be associated with our Qi Clan! I’m telling you, we didn’t want to have anything to do with you even if we came in the night to end the engagement! After tonight, you can forget about using the name of the Qi Clan’s future wife to show off!”

After she finished speaking, she suddenly swept the teacup on the table towards Gu Feiyan.

Fortunately, Gu Feiyan had dodged quickly, otherwise, she would have been smashed to the ground. Gu Feiyan had been furious, to begin with, and now she was thoroughly angered.

You’re going against her, right?

Tonight, she wasn’t going to use the name of ‘etiquette’ to talk back to this pair of siblings…
