Gong Xue’er saw Xia Yangyang’s determined expression.
Her heart felt as if it were being scratched by a cat.
She genuinely wished she could rush over and tear Xia Yangyang’s mouth apart.
Although she understood very well what Xia Yangyang had said.
Over the years, she had already tried countless ways.
Whether it was playing the victim, appealing to familial ties, admitting fault, or even kneeling to beg him.
But Lu Haotian had never softened his heart.
The way he looked at her always had a cold disdain, as if he were staring at a fly he wanted to completely rid himself of.
This was what Gong Xue’er hated the most.
But the more Lu Haotian despised her, the more she wanted to conquer him.
She had sworn that one day she would make everyone who looked down on her kneel at her feet.
Why were they naturally born noble?
Why did Lu Haotian call her a beggar the mont he saw her?
Gong Xue’er sneered coldly, "Then let’s wait and see. Lu Haotian is mine, he will be mine. One day, I will wear a wedding dress and beco Mrs. Gu in grand fashion."
Xia Yangyang no longer wanted to say anything and turned to leave.
When Xia Yangyang returned to the dining room, everyone was still chatting animatedly.
Seeing Xia Yangyang co back, they quickly urged her to sit down and drink.
Xia Yangyang was shy, so they stopped teasing her.
But Lu Haotian was absent.
An expression of doubt flashed in Xia Yangyang’s eyes.
Taking the opportunity, Xia Yangyang turned to ask Gu Qichen next to her, "Where is Lu Haotian?"
Gu Qichen raised an eyebrow, "You’re that concerned?"
She wasn’t concerned; it was just a casual question.
Xia Yangyang didn’t expect Gu Qichen to answer.
Just as she was about to turn away, Gu Qichen casually said, "He went out, just now."
Xia Yangyang responded lightly and didn’t ask further.
Halfway through the al, Xia Yangyang suddenly felt itching all over her body.
The sensation was familiar.
It was a peanut allergy.
Xia Yangyang was born allergic to peanuts; even a trace of peanut powder was intolerable, let alone eating them.
Lu Yao was aware of this.
Of course, during the ti Lu Yao and Xia Yangyang were filming together, under Xia Weiwei’s instigation, Lu Yao had used Xia Yangyang’s allergy to do sothing that hurt Xia Yangyang, causing her to be hospitalized.
At that ti, jealousy over Chen Yu had clouded Lu Yao’s judgnt.
Lu Yao had confessed this to Xia Yangyang earlier on the plane.
However, that incident had helped Lu Yao realize many things.
And it ultimately led to her and Xia Yangyang becoming genuine friends through shared hardships.
Lu Yao, sitting next to Xia Yangyang, turned and saw the red rashes on Xia Yangyang’s neck.
Lu Yao suddenly said, "Yangyang, what’s wrong with your neck? Could it be another peanut allergy?"
Xia Yangyang was already feeling unbearably itchy and checked her phone, only to see that there were indeed tiny rashes all over her neck.
Lu Yao remarked curiously, "But I looked, and none of the dishes today had peanuts."
Gu Qichen quickly stood up, "I’ll take you back to the room to apply ointnt."
Xia Yangyang thought she should apply the ointnt imdiately; without treatnt, it would only worsen.
But she couldn’t understand it herself.
She had been cautious about what she ate.
And her sensitivity to peanuts was so acute that even the slightest contact would imdiately trigger a reaction.
It shouldn’t have caused such a severe allergic response.
But now wasn’t the ti to think too much — Gu Qichen had already grabbed her hand and led her up.
As they reached the doorway, they suddenly ran into Lu Haotian.
Lu Haotian imdiately guessed what had happened just by looking at Xia Yangyang’s condition.
