The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man Chapter 139 - 138: Xu Wenwan Exposes Gu Jiaojiao’s Backgroun

It was a widely acknowledged fact in the village that Gu Jiaojiao was beautiful.

Xu Wenwan, a girl who had returned from the city, was also considered one of the village’s beauties, just like Gu Jiaojiao.

But now that the two of them were sitting together, the contrast was even more striking.

Xu Wenwan could only be considered pretty, while Gu Jiaojiao was a true stunner.

The blunt-spoken auntie beside them couldn’t help but blurt out, "I used to think you two were about the sa, but now that you’re sitting together, I see the difference is actually quite big."

The auntie wasn’t calling Xu Wenwan ugly, just saying that Gu Jiaojiao was prettier.

But Xu Wenwan couldn’t stand it.

She hated Gu Jiaojiao’s face more than anything.

That was why she had written her as the villainous female side character, making her do so many foolish and disgusting things while wearing that very face.

She had reveled in watching the fictional Gu Jiaojiao’s reputation get destroyed, cursed by everyone in the story.

’But what is happening right now?’

’How dare these two old biddies ntion in the sa breath as Gu Jiaojiao?’

’What right does a villainous side character like Gu Jiaojiao have to be compared to , the main female lead?’

’These two must be blind!’

Xu Wenwan was so furious she almost lost her mind. She knew just how unassailable Gu Jiaojiao’s beauty was, so she decided to have her disfigured.

’System, co out.’

"Host, what is your command?"

’I want to change the fate of the villainous side character, Gu Jiaojiao. I want her to be disfigured.’

The system took a mont to check before replying.

"Apologies, Host. Your points are insufficient. You cannot change Gu Jiaojiao’s fate."

Xu Wenwan was speechless.

’Can’t I even make her unlucky just once?’

"You cannot. You currently have only twenty-five points. Making Gu Jiaojiao unlucky once requires a minimum of thirty points, a dium-level misfortune requires three hundred, and rewriting her fate requires three thousand."

Xu Wenwan imdiately blocked the system.

’This useless piece of trash! It always fails when it counts.’

Xu Wenwan was in a foul mood and couldn’t be bothered to look at Gu Jiaojiao’s face, so she turned away. Because of this, she missed the flash of shock in Gu Jiaojiao’s eyes.

She had just heard an electronic voice.

’Could that be the system?’

’There was no system in my cousin’s novel.’

’So the plot has changed.’

’And for so reason, my cousin has transmigrated into the book too, and she’s even bound to a system.’

’The system’s function is to rewrite a character’s fate, but it requires completing tasks to earn points.’

’And making unlucky once costs thirty points.’

Xu Wenwan had no idea that simply by sharing an ox-cart ride, she had already been completely figured out by Gu Jiaojiao.

For the rest of the journey, Xu Wenwan remained completely silent. Having been put in her place by Gu Jiaojiao earlier, she was now on her best behavior, though her expression was still sour.

Gu Jiaojiao, in contrast, not only chatted with Yu Fangfang but also laughed and joked with the aunties beside her.

As for her fair complexion, Gu Jiaojiao just said it was from being cooped up at ho all day.

The others didn’t doubt her words. After all, Gu Jiaojiao was already fair-skinned and pretty when she first arrived in the countryside.

Not only had she never done farm work, but she had also bought a large amount of fine grain during the ration distribution.

Eating well, she would naturally beco even more radiant.

"Jiaojiao, what are you going to the County Town for?"

Gu Jiaojiao couldn’t exactly say she was going to sell fountain pens, so she just said she was going to write a letter ho.

When Gu Jiaojiao ntioned her family, one of the aunties looked over with a curious expression.

"Gu Zhiqing, your family must be quite well-off, right?"

’If they weren’t rich, how could they raise soone so pampered?’

Gu Jiaojiao gave a tight smile and nodded, but didn’t elaborate.

The two aunties hadn’t expected her to actually be from a wealthy family and couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret.

’If only my son could marry Gu Jiaojiao.’

’Then he’d have a father-in-law from the city to help him out.’

Seeing the envious looks on the two aunties’ faces, Xu Wenwan couldn’t stand to watch Gu Jiaojiao put on such an act. With a cold sneer, she rcilessly exposed her.

"If Gu Zhiqing’s family is so wealthy, why would they bear to let you co to the countryside? Is there no one else in your family?"

Her words cast a montary silence over the ox-cart. In the next instant, the two aunties’ scrutinizing gazes fell upon Gu Jiaojiao.

Yu Fangfang shot Gu Jiaojiao a worried glance.

Gu Jiaojiao, however, looked completely unfazed.

"Aunties, you may not know this, but my father is actually the director of a steel mill. My mother died when I was young, and my stepmother only favors her own children."

"Even though her child is older than , I was the one sent down to the countryside."

Gu Jiaojiao spoke in a level tone, but the smile on her face slowly grew strained.
