“All! So she’s First Lady Gu! Indeed, she looks as stunning as the rumors say!”

“Yes! Just a moment ago, 1 thought 1 was seeing a celestial being! Her grace is truly out of this world! Her features are so delicate!”

“Everyone’s been talking about First Lady Gu’s deeds lately. They are all praises.

1 thought it might have been exaggerated, but now that I’ve seen her in person,

1 realize my imagination was lacking. First Lady Gu is more than the rumors suggest! Not only is she beautiful, but her reputation must be well-deserved in every aspect!”

The onlookers regained their composure, one after another becoming excited, their eyes shining with excitement as they whispered to each other and openly admired her.

As the center of attention, Gu Qingluan remained calm, her eyebrows raised ever so slightly, her voice as clear and lively as a mountain spring. “Infamous? Are you not locals? Who told you about the rumors surrounding me? Was it Gu Lingxue?”

Their expressions suddenly changed.

They exchanged glances.

They didn’t expect this woman to be so clever; she had figured it out in an instant.

They hadn’t meant to hide who they were; their original plan was to make a big entrance and embarrass Gu Qingluan as payback for what happened to their junior sister, Lingxue.

However, they never anticipated losing control right from the start.

Both of them were students of Qiankun Academy, born into noble families, and their temperament was extraordinary. After the initial shock, they finally regained their composure.

Xun Yixuan felt even more regretful about his infatuation earlier.

What’s the big deal about her beauty?

A woman with such malicious intentions and no sense of shame—her beauty would only make people despise her more!

“Everyone’s heard about First Lady Gu’s scandals from years back. It’s common knowledge,” Xun Yixuan replied with a malicious tone, casting an unfriendly gaze at Gu Qingluan.

Gu Qingluan easily sensed the change in their attitudes but smiled gently.

She had no grudges with these two individuals, yet they harbored such strong animosity toward her. She didn’t need to guess who was behind their actions.

However, before she could speak, others couldn’t stand by any longer.

“That’s just your ignorance! You’re so clueless about the news, and you’re still proudly showing off! Don’t you realize how foolish you look?”

The first one to mock and attack was Shen Fule.

“You dare call me foolish, you fatso!” Xun Yixuan fumed, narrowing his eyes, his fierce anger immediately evident.

Shen Fule hadn’t forgotten the kick he received from Xun Yixuan earlier, and he nervously took a step back.

While Shen Fule was intimidated, Xun Yixuan couldn’t silence everyone in the presence of so many witnesses.

“This chubby guy has a point! He’s so ignorant and still has the audacity to mock Miss Gu!”

“Look at his own status, what qualifications does he have to look down on First Lady Gu? First Lady Gu is so powerful; she can easily handle even a Saint, and she could crush him with just one finger.”

“Let’s stay calm. There’s no need to get angry. I heard that those who offend First Lady Gu don’t end up well. Let’s just wait and see these two’s misfortune.”

“Haha! Well said! I’ve heard that First Lady Gu never goes easy on her enemies. I’ve never witnessed it firsthand; is today the day my luck changes, finally getting a front-row seat?”

At the moment, Gu Qingluan held the title of Guardian Princess for the Nation and was hailed as the city’s foremost hero in Tianjing.

They were fortunate that she was one of their own, and they took pride in having a Saint like her.

These two young men, clearly not locals, had dared to insult Miss Gu, and it was deemed too much!

Initially, everyone had been quite angry.

Still, the thought of witnessing the two men’s downfall made their anger dissipate, and they strangely anticipated seeing Gu Qingluan giving them a good thrashing.

The discussions of the crowd reached the ears of Yuan Jincai and his companion, their faces turning red with anger. They wondered if these people had gone mad, praising Gu Qingluan like this.

Their resentment toward Gu Qingluan grew stronger.

They had anticipated this change in public opinion, believing that Gu Qingluan had used some means to whitewash her image.

They glared at Gu Qingluan with intense hostility.

“Gu Qingluan! Don’t think you can deceive these people.. The world won’t be blinded by you! The mistakes you made in the past can never be erased!”
