Gong Qingwan thought of this and felt extremely anxious; she couldn’t calm down at all.

After all, in her eyes, Gu Tong was a cunning person who often used tricks and left her unable to discern any pattern.

Gong Qingwan had to stay on guard at all times, otherwise, if she wasn’t careful, Gu Tong would harm her.

Sure enough, ever since experiencing that day’s nervous breakdown, Gong Qingwan now seemed particularly sensitive, and even trivial matters would directly trigger her emotions.

If this goes on for a long time, staying in such an environment, Gong Qingwan would go completely mad sooner or later...

Gu Tong glanced at her, but didn’t take it seriously, and said, "Since the second mistress is unwell, I’ll go to work first and not disturb your recovery."

What kind of words are these! 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Gong Qingwan was so angry she trembled, but still used all her strength to clench her fists.

What does it mean, ’Since the second mistress is unwell, I’ll go to work first!’ Not a trace of compassion.

According to common sense, as the young lady of the Li Family, even if pretending, one should appear very concerned in such a situation.

Instead of casually saying a sentence and then leaving, it’s nothing but not treating her as the mistress of the Li Family. Even if outsiders came to the Li Family and saw her ill, they wouldn’t be so cold and unfeeling.

Maybe because of her bad mood, things she could forcefully tolerate before had now become utterly unforgivable.

Of course, Gu Tong wouldn’t be kind enough to understand Gong Qingwan’s special state and help soothe her mental tension.

For Gu Tong, not adding fuel to the fire was already her greatest mercy.

After all, Gong Qingwan was not her biological mother-in-law and was someone who desperately wanted to kill Li Yan and herself; she had no need to show filial piety to an enemy, nor did she have any obligation to care for her. So Gu Tong didn’t care about her reputation with such a malicious stepmother, so it didn’t matter in the least.

Thinking of this, Gu Tong didn’t linger but headed towards the Li Family gate, put on her shoes, and left the house.

Almost in that instant, Gong Qingwan inside the house completely exploded.

She violently smashed the vase on the table, saying, "Damn, damn, that bitch! Simply too much!"

The days of dizziness coupled with Gu Tong’s deliberate provocation just now finally snapped Gong Qingwan’s last nerve.

It was as if the pent-up bad emotions accumulated over the years finally found a breakthrough and erupted.

Gong Qingwan’s body curled up, her hands tightly clenched into fists, and her whole body began to tremble.

"Madam, what’s wrong with you..." He Ma approached worriedly, her eyes filled with heartache, and said, "Your body just got better, how can you let yourself get so worked up? If you harm your health, wouldn’t you be a laughingstock for others..."

Having stayed in the house for a long time, He Ma particularly understood the principle of telling people what they wanted to hear and saying ghost stories to ghosts. She didn’t need to think of comforting words for Gong Qingwan; she just knew them naturally.

"Laughingstock! I am the mistress of the Li Family, a lady of the Gong Family. Who dares to laugh at me!" Gong Qingwan’s emotions were unstable, with a hint of malice in her eyes, saying, "Damn it, can’t even handle such a small matter! Useless, truly useless!"

The stark contrast from the morning’s cautiousness to the current madness highlighted how rapidly Gong Qingwan’s emotions changed, even her servants couldn’t fully understand.
