Chapter 41: The Air of Miss

Madame Gu asked her to step down.

When she did it, Gu Chaoyan could still hear Duke Changning’s wife cursing her about not finding a proper family to marry in the future.

Gu Chaoyan did not care about these. She was going to take revenge on all of them, and there was no hurry to do anything right now.

When Madam Gu asked for Gu Chaoyan again, it was already the evening time. Gu Chaoyan had just finished exercise and drank some tea with spring water.

It was not Chen Fu who showed up this time, but Cai Zhu, the eldest maid of Madam Gu at Pear Yard.

When Cai Zhu saw Gu Chaoyan, she was behaving in a normal way.

“Miss, Madam Gu asks you to visit her at Pear Yard.” Cai Zhu sized up Gu Chaoyan with fixed gazes.

Gu Chaoyan was still showing a flat look.

Seeing Cai Zhu not showing so much passion, she got up and answered lazily, “Just wait outside. I will be there when I have changed.”

No one had liked or cherished Gu Chaoyan before in the mansion. She had been bullied by anybody so she had been discreet about her own behaviors. She even showed courtesy to these maids.

However, now she was Gu Chaoyan, and she had been a killer in the previous life.

She never hesitated about anything or showed any timid behaviors. She was the Miss, so she was going to act like one.

Cai Zhu looked displeased instantly, so she added ironically, “Lady Chaoyan, you are now involved with the Wang Family, so you are in a different situation. But none of us are sure how much longer the relationship can last.”

Seeing the situation, Qing was about to explain... when Gu Chaoyan walked to her and slapped right on Cai Zhu’s face.

That was not a soft strike. Cai Zhu’s face turned swollen as she turned a look of disbelief at Gu Chaoyan. “How dare you slap me, you moron!”

The next second...

The other side of Cai Zhu’s cheek turned swollen too.

Cai Zhu got so annoyed that she stepped forward just to start a fight with Gu Chaoyan, whose hands gripped her neck directly. She said to Cai Zhu with a look of coldness. “I can even take your life.”

“....”

“Do you think Madam Gu is going to speak for a maid?”

“....”

“You don’t know how much longer I can stay related to the Wang Family, but I do know that as long as I am related to them, I can still kill you. Madam Gu is not going to pick on me about this matter, because of the Wang Family.”

Having said the words... Gu Chaoyan released her hands.

Cai Zhu collapsed to the ground, panting in fury and fright.

Miss was thinking about killing her!

They had been bullying her so fiercely before, but she had not uttered a sound. Maybe that was why they had more or less forgotten that this hideous lady was their master and that even without the Wang Family, the maids would not have any advantage if she reported their behavior to Madame Gu. She was the master!

Seeing the seriousness of this problem, Cai Zhu waited politely next to her despite the swollen cheeks.

Qing got startled at the sight of them. She had been worried that when Miss was getting changed, Cai Zhu would report the delayed behavior to Madam Gu. If that happened, her miss would have a bad time.

Howeve, Cai Zhu got even more frightened than she was.

That made Qing extremely happy.

Gu Chaoyan did not have Qing with her when she went to the front yard. She expected Qing to take a break and she also worried that Cai Zhu was so unconvinced that she would take the chance to bully Qing.

As they came to the front yard, Madame Gu spotted the injury on Cai Zhu’s face. Her face sank. “Cai Zhu, what happened to your face?” She said as she turned a displeased look at Gu Chaoyan.

Cai Zhu had just been to Qiong Pavilion. So it must have been someone from Qiong Pavilion who caused the injury.
