she is sweeter than sugar

Gu Ci raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a bit of interest in her tone, "Oh? I stepped on you."

Gu Zhiran just shook her head, and said falteringly, "No cousin, it was me... I was not careful..."

Anyone who heard what Gu Zhiran said would know that there was something inside this matter.

In front of Wen Runian, Chu Shixian's face showed a bit of resentment, shaking her head, she sighed, as if she had given up on teaching Gu Ci.

At this moment, Gu Zhiran suddenly let out a scream.

Everyone subconsciously looked in that direction, and saw Gu Ci stepping on Gu Zhiran's instep!

Just listening to Gu Zhiran's screams, one can tell how much Gu Ci's feet are to Gu Zhiran.

Except for Mrs. Gu and Wen Runian, everyone else looked at Gu Ci in disbelief, as if they didn't understand at all how dare she do such a thing at this time.

It's just that Gu Ci's action suddenly awakened the memories of several people.

Once upon a time, they almost forgot that Gu Ci was the one who turned the entire Gu family upside down without any scruples the day she first came to the Gu family, and then directly turned against Chu Shixian.

What... is there anything she can't do?

But Gu Ci, the instigator of all this, just glanced at Gu Zhiran coldly, still looking at ease, "Are you afraid you are living in a dream?"

Chu Shixian even hugged Gu Zhiran in distress, and protected her aside, "Gu Ci, are you crazy? Bullying Zhiran once is not enough, do you want to bully her a second time?!"

This time, even Wen Runian frowned slightly.

He turned his head and looked at Gu Zhiran, "Does it hurt?"

Gu Zhiran's heart was thumping, but tears were shining in her eyes.

She bit her lip, as if hesitating to nod, but in the end, she shook her head.

"No...it doesn't hurt...cousin...it's nothing."

Hearing Gu Zhiran's begging for perfection, the servants around couldn't help whispering, secretly pointing in Gu Ci's direction with their eyes.

Madam Gu only watched Gu Zhiran perform coldly.

Immediately, her eyes fell on Gu Zhiran's shoes.

If she didn't understand before, why did Gu Ci step on Gu Zhiran's foot, but now, she completely understands.

So Mrs. Gu's straightforward "what's wrong with stepping on you" turned into...

"It's said that Ah Ci stepped on that foot before, why don't you take a look at Gu Zhiran's shoes now?"

As soon as the old lady said this, everyone's eyes once again fell on Gu Zhiran's feet.

Chu Shixian looked at Gu Zhiran's shoes, but didn't see anything, but looked at the gray shoe prints, and once again felt sorry for Gu Zhiran.

She frowned, hating Gu Ci's arrogance and domineering, and angry that Gu Zhiran was too easy to bully, "Look at the shoe prints, do you see how hard Gu Ci bullied Zhiran? She dared to do such a small trick in front of us. I can't even imagine how she treated Zhiran in school..."

However, when Gu Zhiran looked at her shoes, her heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly called out, stopping Chu Shixian's words, "Mom! Cousin, she really didn't step on my foot just now."

Wen Runian on the side looked at Gu Zhiran's shoes, his eyes also deepened.

Slowly, he turned his gaze to Gu Ci's feet again.

And Chu Shixian was still talking.

These, in fact, all the people present knew, and Chu Shixian specially emphasized this, as if... She was telling someone specifically.

Madam Gu took a deep breath, and closed her eyes fiercely.

Leaning on a cane with one hand, she slammed on the ground a few times.

"Open your eyes again and take a good look, how many shoe prints are there on Gu Zhiran's shoes!"

Hearing this, Chu Shixian said without hesitation, "One, it was all stepped on by Gu Ci, how many more..."

Speaking of this, Chu Shixian's words stopped abruptly, and she once again looked at Gu Zhiran's shoes in disbelief, confirming it.

That's right, there is only one shoe print on Gu Zhiran's shoe!

And that shoe print was also where "Gu Ci" stepped on Gu Zhiran for the first time.

If stepping on Gu Zhiran's shoes once can leave such obvious shoe prints, then stepping on Gu Zhiran's shoes for the second time will definitely do the same.

But no.

What does this mean, it is self-evident...

It would be even more far-fetched to say that Gu Ci stepped on the same position twice.

Because Gu Ci stepped on Gu Zhiran's other foot this time!

"See clearly this time?" Mrs. Gu slightly raised her eyelids, her voice deep.

Chu Shixian's face turned blue and white all of a sudden, and she was stiff for a long time before she could say a word, "This... isn't there no one else beside Zhiran? Besides, how could there be any shoe marks on Cici's shoes?" No?"

As she said that, she looked at Gu Ci again, with a bit of reluctance still in her eyes.

Gu Ci casually raised her foot, and on it was an anti-dirty shoe sticker!

And this anti-dirty shoe sticker is no stranger to Chu Shixian, it was placed at their door.

It's just that generally speaking, the Gu family is still accustomed to asking guests to put on slippers or to go in directly.

This anti-dirty shoe sticker has just been left unused, making Chu Shixian almost forget its existence.

But unfortunately, Gu Ci just used it!

After guessing something, looking at the anti-dirty shoe stickers under Gu Ci's feet, Mrs. Gu still sighed in her heart.

This child...he obviously doesn't want to touch the things of the Gu family, including the slippers and the ground...

"Mom... I've said it all, my cousin didn't step on me... You really misunderstood my cousin..."

Gu Zhiran spoke again, her smile couldn't be maintained for a while.

Seeing Chu Shixian's eyes look over, she took out a wet towel, and changed the subject as if nothing happened, "Grandma, let me wipe off this ointment for you. I have a tube of ointment here, which is good for wound recovery." Very effective."

After saying that, she turned her head and said to Mrs. Wang, "Sister-in-law Wang, please go to my room and take that tube of ointment."

Mrs. Wang's face was full of smiles, and after she answered, she said to Mrs. Gu, "Old lady, you see how filial the eldest lady is, and Miss Zhiran got that tube of ointment with great difficulty. Look at you!" When I was injured, I immediately asked me to go upstairs to get the ointment."

Hearing these words, Gu Zhiran frowned slightly, and Gu Changfeng couldn't help frowning.

Although these words sounded like nothing in ordinary times, Wen Runian was at their home right now.

Sister-in-law Wang's words like this seem to show that the Gu family is too petty to let a servant take even a tube of ointment to heart...

Gu Zhiran said indifferently, "Grandma's body is always the most important thing, let alone a tube of ointment is nothing at all."

As she said that, she didn't wait for Mrs. Wang to continue to say some ridiculous words, so she asked her to go upstairs and take off the ointment.

Due to Wen Runian's presence, Mrs. Gu didn't directly say some unkind words, but she calmly took her hand back from Gu Zhiran's.

"You don't need the ointment. It's not a serious injury in itself. If you really want to, return some things to Ah Ci..."
