Chapter 1240 A Double Loss (3)
When Qing Lin, who was outside, heard the noises in the room, he rolled his eyes and turned to leave.
Meanwhile, Gu Qingyao left the storeroom and went to the toilet. She had just entered when Ji Mingyue, Gu Fangting, and a few of their friends came over.
Some were already married, but two of them were young, unmarried girls. They were all from good families in the capital.
They were naturally delighted to encounter Gu Qingyao. One must know it was usually rare to encounter the young Madam Mo.
They wanted to speak to her and gain her favor. To their surprise, Gu Qingyao was in an especially good mood since her good friend was getting married, and she treated them warmly. In a few moments, the ladies were talking animatedly. It was so noisy in the dining hall that a few people just lingered in the corridors and did not return.
Meanwhile, Huo Tianxiang was still in the dining hall. When he saw that Gu Qingyao still did not return, he knew that Huo Tianning must have succeeded. He immediately relaxed. He looked at Mo Beihan mockingly.
Mo Beihan, let’s see if you can still smile later!
The wedding drew to an end. More and more guests were preparing to leave. Huo Tianxiang started to panic when he realized that. They planned for everything to be revealed while there were many people around. Why was there still no news after so long?
He was panicking when a girl’s scream came from a far-off corridor!
“Ah…”
The scream was extremely sharp and piercing. Even though the hall was so crowded, everyone could probably hear it.
The entire hall paused.
This was a wedding banquet and the Qin family’s wedding banquet at that. Why would a woman be screaming so piteously?
Before they could respond, there was another series of screams.
This time, everyone heard it clearly!
“Ah, ah, ah… Wu Wu Wu, ah, ah…”
She was crying and screaming. Everyone could hear it clearly.
Huo Tianxiang started and hurriedly led everyone out.
“It seems to be coming from here. Something must be wrong!”
As he spoke, he led the way and charged towards the storeroom.
Gu Qingyao and Ji Mingyue had been in the corridor outside the toilet, and they were actually the nearest to the storeroom. They naturally heard the sound.
The ladies and young girls were frightened. When the screaming began again, they naturally wanted to see what was going on.
They had just reached the end of the corridor when Huo Tianxiang came rushing up from behind.
He was stunned to see Gu Qingyao standing there!
His brain was in turmoil!
“Gu Qingyao? What are you doing here?”
Gu Qingyao frowned. “Huo Tianxiang, why are you speaking to me like that?”
Huo Tianxiang paused.
Even then, sounds continued to come from the storeroom. A woman screaming and talking, a man shouting in anger and so on…
Huo Tianxiang had a bad feeling about this. They were very near now and the storeroom was not soundproof. He could already discern his younger brother’s voice. But the woman was not Gu Qingyao.
Huo Tianxiang was the chosen heir to the Huo family, so he was not completely stupid. He instinctively tried to stop the others from going over. As long as no one found out about it, it would be a small matter.
But of course, the people with Gu Qingyao would not listen to him.
The people that Ji Mingyue and Gu Fangting had brought had been specially chosen by Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao. Two of them were matrons of high status. There was also a young unmarried girl with a strong personality. The last and most important one had been specially chosen by Mo Beihan.
She was Ye Yihong’s enemy, and she loved gossip.
