However, Gu Lichen ignored her and ordered his men, "Take everything valuable off her!"
When he said this, everyone there was shocked.
'Take off? Here?
'Didn't they say Hua Lifang saved Young Master Gu's life? They're so close that Young Master Gu gave Hua Lifang many resources. He even gave her money and a mansion!'
'Is the crown prince falling out with her?' The crowd wondered what was happening, but no one stood up for Hua Lifang.
They only saw someone walking up to Hua Lifang and stripping her of all her jewelry and even her gown!
"Don't... Lichen, how could you do this to me... I saved you. No matter how wrong I was, you can't humiliate me like this!" shouted Hua Lifang as she struggled hard.
However, her struggles were useless. A moment later, all that remained on her were her undergarments.
Hua Lifang stood in the hall, looking like a mess while others watched. She only wished she could pass out, but the way Gu Lichen's phoenix eyes stared at her was so scary that she dared not pretend to faint.
She felt she would probably meet a much worse end if she pretended to faint.
"Framing Guo Xinli was not the only wrong thing you did!” Gu Lichen stared at the woman in front of him coldly! The ordinary woman only had a high school education and not much knowledge. She had not even managed to get out of the secluded village before she met him. He never thought he would be so badly deceived by a woman like this!
He had been so miserably deceived this whole time when he thought he was clever!
"Did you... really save me back then?" asked Gu Lichen.
Hua Lifang immediately shuddered at the question but replied like how she always had, "Of course... It was me. Who else would it be?"
"It was you?" Gu Lichen suddenly laughed, but his phoenix eyes turned crimson as he stared at Hua Lifang with fierce hatred. "What a fool I was! Why didn’t I think of investigating it properly even though I had doubts? Hua Lifang, you're amazing. I never expected myself to be fooled by a woman like you one day!"
