That's right.
Gu Ling didn't dare to leave. Although the Fourth Miss said that she could protect her for a while, she couldn't protect her for a lifetime, so she couldn't leave. Once she left, the Fifth Miss would turn around and find trouble with her, although the Fifth Miss couldn't really hurt her because of her status.
If Fifth Miss wanted to find trouble with her, it would be too easy.
Therefore, Gu Ling really didn't dare to leave.
"Sigh!" Fourth Miss sighed, then turned around and was about to leave.
Slap!
The Fifth Miss stepped forward and slapped Gu Ling's face again. "Someone is backing you up, isn't it?"
Gu Ling had completely become a victim.
Fifth Miss hit her just to vent her anger. She wanted to feel like she was hitting Fourth Miss.
Just as Fifth Miss was about to hit her again, Gu Ling gritted her teeth. She seemed to have found a flaw in Fifth Miss.
Then, she hit her.
Bang!
Gu Ling's body flew out. Although she attacked Fifth Miss and saw an opening, Fifth Miss's strength wasn't just for show.
The moment Gu Ling attacked, Fifth Miss used her own strength to reflect Gu Ling back.
"Huh?" Fifth Miss looked at Gu Ling in confusion. Gu Ling actually fought back just now. This was simply too incomprehensible for her. "You actually dared to fight back!!!"
Strange!
Fifth Miss's face was full of confusion. She couldn't understand why Xiatian dared to attack her.
In her impression, this kind of thing shouldn't have happened to her. But now, this kind of thing was really happening.
Even the Fourth Miss stopped in her tracks.
Gu Ling stood up. In that instant, she saw Fifth Miss's weakness and instinctively attacked. She thought that it might be because she was too nervous. But now, if she were to explain to Fifth Miss, Fifth Miss would definitely not believe her.
Moreover, she felt that she was being bullied to the point of suffocation, so she directly shouted, "That's right, I am fighting back. Although I am not your opponent, don't go too far. You hit me, I admit it. Who asked you to be so strong? I can't beat you, but you can't bully me like this. You are ranked fifth, and I am ranked seventeenth. According to the family rules, the top twenty are not allowed to attack people who are ranked five or more levels lower. You have broken the rules."
Gu Ling was really holding her breath, so this time, it could be said that she had exploded in one go and said so many words in one breath.
When the Fifth Miss heard Gu Ling's words, she was also stunned because she didn't believe that Gu Ling would dare to say such words to her. It could be said that such words were a provocation to her.
Gu Ling was right. She didn't have the right to attack Gu Ling, but she had other ways to deal with Gu Ling.
Gu Ling should be very clear about this. However, Gu Ling actually dared to talk to her like this. She was going to offend her to death.
"I'll give you one more chance. Say it again." The Fifth Miss said indifferently.
"I've already said it. If I report you to the higher-ups for slapping me, they will definitely punish you. So, you have to apologize to me." Gu Ling was now desperate. She thought that since she had already offended the Fifth Miss, it would be useless even if she knelt down and begged for mercy now.
She might as well be stubborn to the end and directly fall out with the Fifth Miss. At most, she would be more careful in the future.
"Oh? Who saw me hit you? Do you have evidence? "The Fifth Miss Asked.
"I have injuries on my face. The higher-ups can see it at a glance." Gu Ling said.
"Oh, you have injuries." The Fifth Miss said with disdain. Then, she looked at the Eighth Miss and said, "She said she has injuries on her face."
"I slapped her. I can admit that I slapped her." The Eighth Miss said directly.
Seeing how shameless they were, Gu Ling was so angry that her face turned red. She understood that in the ancient family, without strength, one would only be bullied.
"I can testify." The Fourth Miss suddenly said.
Hearing the Fourth Miss's words, the Fifth Miss's expression changed. She knew that the Fourth Miss had the ability to testify. Moreover, with the Fourth Miss's testimony, the higher-ups would investigate more strictly. "Don't meddle in other people's business."
"I'm not meddling in other people's business. I just think that you're too annoying." The Fourth Miss said very impolitely.
Gu Ling looked directly at the Fifth Miss and said, "Are you going to apologize or not?"
The Fifth Miss's expression turned cold. She stared at Gu Ling and said, "You really want me to apologize? I advise you to think about it carefully. "
Threatening!
Threatening!
The Fifth Miss was obviously threatening Gu Ling now. She did not want to apologize, especially to a person ranked 17th. Moreover, the Fourth Miss was here. If she apologized, she would lose all her face. How could she have the nerve to act cool in front of the Fourth Miss in the future?!
"You have to apologize!" Gu Ling said. She had to agree now. Anyway, the Fifth Miss would definitely not let her off. She did not care if she offended her a little more. At most, she would never leave the courtyard again. Anyway, something big would happen to the Gu family in a year. She could wait for a year.
"I'll ask you one last time. You have to think about the price." The Fifth Miss threatened again.
"Apologize!" Gu Ling said very impolitely.
The Fifth Miss walked in front of Gu Ling. Her expression was cold and her eyes were red. She stared at Gu Ling and squeezed out three words from between her teeth, "I'm sorry."
Hearing these three words, Gu Ling nodded.
"Hmph, let's wait and see." The Fifth Miss turned and left after saying that. Before she left, she glared fiercely at the Fourth Miss.
Phew!
Gu Ling felt her body relax. She did not feel as nervous as before.
She had a feeling that if it was not for the difference in strength, she would definitely have hit the Fifth Miss.
Therefore, she planned to go back and have a good discussion with the ugly slave.
"You can look for me if you need anything." The Fourth Miss nodded slightly at Gu Ling.
"Thank you, Fourth Sister!" Gu Ling bowed and said.
The Fourth Miss left. She did not say much to Gu Ling. The reason why she stood up for Gu Ling this time was to see the Fifth Miss make a fool of herself.
Gu Ling also understood that the Fourth Miss could protect her for a while, but definitely could not protect her forever. Therefore, she still had to rely on herself. "It's getting dark!"
