"I forgot," Chuzheng said righteously.
Gu Yu: "..."
Gu Yu sneered, "Do I need to remind Miss Qin?"
"No need." Those things weren’t done by ; what’s the use of reminding ? I won’t admit it.
Gu Yu: "???"
He glanced at the girl reflected in the glass beside him. He figured it out; this woman is planning not to acknowledge it... but why?
She clearly has soone she likes, yet now...
The Qin Family isn’t paving the way for her, and she can’t make it in the entertainnt industry. Is she planning to rely on him, her fiancé?
No wonder Gu Yu thought so.
Imagine a woman who previously made a fuss about breaking off the engagent and verbally attacked you suddenly becoming nice to you. Isn’t there a conspiracy!
Absolutely!
Gu Yu’s eyes darkened, "I heard you gifted grandmother an island?"
He rembered the last ti they t; this woman was polite enough, but her eyes were full of reluctance, and now she’s gifting an island?
"Mm," Chuzheng glanced at Gu Yu, asking with anticipation, "Do you want one? I’ll give you one."
Gu Yu: "..."
What does she think it is?
Gu Yu couldn’t comprehend what this woman was thinking: "No need, thank you."
Gu Yu paused slightly, "I rember the Qin Family hasn’t given you much funding lately. Where did you get the money to buy an island?"
Chuzheng hasn’t completely fallen out with the Qin Family yet; they still provide her with a living allowance.
But that money, to buy an island, is just a drop in the ocean.
Would you believe I found it? Chuzheng’s face was indifferent, "Mind your own business."
"Do you think I want to intervene? You are now with the Gu Family; if there’s a problem, it involves not just you."
"Don’t worry, it wasn’t stolen."
"..."
-
"Young Master Gu."
"Young Master Gu..."
The crowd downstairs was growing, and more people greeted him. Gu Yu didn’t have ti to ponder what Chuzheng’s intentions were and calmly dealt with these people.
"Is this your fiancée, Miss Qin?" Soone who recognized Chuzheng asked.
Gu Yu acknowledged indifferently.
Seeing that Gu Yu didn’t have any intention to introduce her, these people rely greeted her without much enthusiasm.
Soon, Gu Yu went to another side, leaving Chuzheng standing alone in the hall, idly watching the guests coming and going.
Chuzheng saw the Qin Family mbers; Madam Qin ca directly towards her.
"Xiao Chu." Madam Qin’s face didn’t reveal much care for her daughter, more of a cold scrutiny, "Have you been getting along well with Young Master Gu lately?"
Chuzheng didn’t answer, and Madam Qin frowned. Before, she couldn’t finish speaking before the girl exploded, but today there’s no response.
What is she planning now?
Madam Qin looked around, lowering her voice, "Even though Young Master Gu’s health isn’t convenient now, he has the looks and family background. What could you be dissatisfied with? You’re already this old, it’s ti to think about the family and stop ssing around."
"And about your acting, stop it quickly. There’s so much filth in that circle; I don’t need to remind you, right? You’re not cut out for that."
Madam Qin’s words had worn the original protagonist’s ears out.
When she was little, no matter what the original protagonist wanted to do, whether Father Qin or Madam Qin, the first word was denying her.
On the contrary, her younger brother, the Qin Family’s young master, was always unconditionally supported in whatever he did.
The original protagonist was very obedient as a child, but after being denied so often and having a spoiled brother for comparison, naturally, her personality beca rebellious.
Gradually it beca a habit, a habit to oppose them.
Or maybe...
She wanted them to pay more attention to her.
But Father Qin and Madam Qin only had their eyes on her brother.
"All the guests today are distinguished, behave yourself and don’t cause trouble."
Madam Qin advised Chuzheng a couple of tis before joining the side calling her, quickly fitting into her role as Madam Qin, laughing and chatting with others.
Chuzheng held a glass of champagne, took a sip, her face still expressionless.
"Sister..."
A boy sowhat resembling the original protagonist, dressed in a well-fitting little suit, sunny and handso, full of young vigor, like a prince from a fairy tale world.
This was the original protagonist’s younger brother, Qin Chuzhao.
The original protagonist had a complex feeling for this brother.
She resented his birth for stealing their parents’ attention.
But she also loved him.
No matter what she said, Qin Chuzhao would always follow her, calling her sister over and over. When she got scolded, Qin Chuzhao would stand up for her, taking the bla on himself.
Of course, the result was often that she got scolded even harder.
Qin Chuzhao glanced at Madam Qin before acting sneakily, "Sister, this is the money I’ve been saving secretly; take it and use it first. Mom and Dad are just angry, do what you like, I support you! You’ll definitely beco a big star in the future!"
Qin Chuzhao made a fist, his eyes were resolute.
Chuzheng: "..." No, I don’t want to.
The original protagonist entered showbiz just to get closer to her celebrity crush.
"No need, keep it yourself." With your money, even the change isn’t enough.
"Sister..." Qin Chuzhao frowned.
"I’m fine."
Unable to give it away, Qin Chuzhao held the card in disappointnt, lowering his little head, looking slightly wronged.
"Chuzhao, who’s this pretty sister?" Suddenly a little girl popped up beside Qin Chuzhao, reaching out to link her arm with his.
The little girl’s eyes were watchful but mostly curious.
Qin Chuzhao was rather aloof at school, how was he talking so closely with a girl, and even scarier, he was smiling.
Qin Chuzhao frowned, pulling his arm out, "What are you doing? Do I know you well?"
The little girl’s expression stiffened instantly, "Chuzhao! You... she... who is she?!"
The little girl, feeling slighted, pouted in grievance and asked Qin Chuzhao softly.
"My sister," Qin Chuzhao said irritably, then dragged Chuzheng away, "Sis, let’s talk over there."
The little girl’s eyes widened slightly, her expression changing several tis, before chasing after them, "I’m... I’m sorry, sister, I... I didn’t know you’re Chuzhao’s sister, I..."
"Who’s your sister? Don’t call her sister randomly! She’s my sister!" Qin Chuzhao exploded first.
"When we get married afterward, won’t sister be my sister too?"
"Who’s going to marry you!"
You,"
The boy was red with anger, "Shaless!"
The little girl muttered, "Being shaless won’t get you otherwise."
"Shut up! Who’s chasing you, get lost."
"I won’t."
Chuzheng watched these youngsters arguing and quietly backed out of the chaos, slipping to the side. By the ti Qin Chuzhao wanted to find her, she was already nowhere to be seen.
-
"Miss Qin."
Chuzheng encountered a servant of the Gu Family while going up the stairs.
The servant looked anxious: "Could you help take this up to Mr. Gu? I can’t leave here..."
The servant was holding a set of clothes.
Chuzheng was just about to say why should I, I’m not his servant.
The words were swallowed back as she took the clothes and went upstairs.
The servant seed to say sothing behind her, but amidst the sharp sound of soone adjusting the audio downstairs, Chuzheng didn’t hear anything.
