Although Gu Pinting was pleading desperately over the phone.
However, as soon as Gu Shiyin heard that the dical Beauty Bracelet was truly lost, her attitude imdiately turned cold:
"Pingting? Hello? Pingting? Sorry Pingting, I have to board the plane now, the signal isn’t very good, I’ll contact you when I have ti..."
Click, the call ended.
Her dical Beauty Bracelet is so valuable, yet that fool Gu Pinting lost it, and still has the face to ask her for help?
If it weren’t for Fang Yui diligently supplying her these days, she would almost not have enough nourishnt to support all these facades and her delicate appearance.
Without the bracelet, Gu Pinting is as useless as trash to her.
Trash isn’t worth wasting a second on.
Better to spend ti cultivating Fang Yui’s Gourt Jade Chopsticks.
Gu Shiyin hung up the phone, walked quickly to the entrance of Famo Mansion, and saw a gray-haired, blue-eyed man. She hurried to greet him and shake hands: "Mr. Alexander, sorry to keep you waiting, this way please—"
Alexander said thank you in French and then in unclear Chinese, "Why are people in the Empire so strange?"
He pointed at the queue at the Famo Mansion forming like a snake, while there wasn’t a single person at the "Affordable Jan" at the end of the corridor.
The contrast was really stark.
Gu Shiyin laughed, "This is to show you what kind of gourt food is worth people queuing up for a whole day and night to taste. Even though there’s a restaurant next door without a line, they won’t spare it a glance."
"Oh, I look forward to it!" The French old man whistled childishly.
Just as Gu Shiyin and Alexander were laughing and walking back to the second floor.
At the end of the line, Gu Pinting was holding her phone, stunned: "Wasn’t Aunt saying she was going to board the plane and there was a bad signal? But the one talking to the French was Aunt, right?"
Because of the lost bracelet, her body had been fluctuating in weight, and she fainted in the rental apartnt, almost dying.
She rembered that night she ordered a red wine foie gras delivery, and strange symptoms appeared after eating it, so she ca to verify if there was sothing wrong with the restaurant’s food.
Who knew the line would be this long!
If Aunt was inside, why would she need to stand in line?
Gu Pinting shouted a few more tis for Aunt, but no one paid her any attention.
She then tugged at the manager, demanding to be let in alone, but the manager was helpless and used the upstairs socialite event as an excuse.
Upon hearing it, Gu Pinting said, "A socialite event? I am a socialite!"
She swiped her phone again, searching in a WeChat group... but after searching for a long ti, she couldn’t find the socialite group at all.
Damn, who kicked her out of the group?
Aunt said she wouldn’t give up on her and that they would support each other forever, right? Aunt, Aunt where are you?!

Bao Gucheng was holding Xi Zuzi’s hand just as they stepped out of the elevator.
The bustling queue blocked them.
He protected her as they navigated through the crowd, passing by Gu Pinting, who was arguing with the restaurant manager to let her in, without a mont’s hesitation.
Following behind, Xi Rubao curled his lips, "Really? Going crazy over so trendy restaurant, don’t other restaurants sll good? Isn’t Chinese food good enough, must they rush to eat French?"
Xi Zuzi turned back and smiled, "Ah, I get it. So kids, from ancient tis to now, aren’t that smart, and even like to worship foreign gods, almost forgetting their Ancestors."
Bao Gucheng said blandly, "The herd ntality is a flaw in so of our compatriots."
Xi Rubao straightened his back, "I just don’t believe that the moon in foreign lands is rounder! Sister, back then your Snow Phoenix Zither showed that Western instrunts aren’t as lodious as our Empire’s traditional instrunts!"
"Mm hmm."
"Huh? Sister, what’s that green, round thing rolling on the ground?"
