Gu Pinting felt better: "Aunt, it’s so good to have you around, nothing seems like a big deal anymore."
Chu Qiaoen found these words somewhat familiar.
After a moment, she realized that she had said the same thing once before. Read full story at novel⦿fire.net
She suddenly looked at Gu Shiyin with a complicated expression. Actually, if it weren’t for the embarrassing incident with Gu Shiyin’s treasure appraiser alias, she would have also thought that Aunt was the most amazing person in the world.
Although now she doesn’t resent Aunt for conning her out of ten million, and Aunt returned the money, there’s still a small knot in her heart, preventing her from wholeheartedly relying on Gu Shiyin like Gu Pinting at this moment.
"Alright, stop flattering me. I’m your elder, so it’s my duty to be good to you guys." Gu Shiyin said, patting Gu Pinting’s shoulder while glancing warmly at Chu Qiaoen, "But even Aunt can make mistakes sometimes, and I appreciate your generosity in not holding it against me."
Chu Qiaoen felt a bit ashamed upon hearing this.
Aunt is still the best aunt in the world, and it’s just her overthinking. She shouldn’t dwell on the small incident at last night’s auction.
"Aunt, is the old man hosting dinner tonight for his birthday? I’ll prepare a birthday gift, could you take it over for me?"
"No need, no need, it’s just a family dinner. The old man just felt like it spontaneously, though he just had a birthday banquet last month. I don’t know why he suddenly wants to throw another one today, like a child acting on a whim. Qiaoen, you don’t have to spend money on it."
"Aunt, if Qiaoen doesn’t have to buy one, shouldn’t the two of us get a gift for Grandpa? Grandpa’s been into calligraphy and painting recently, should we pick a nice piece for him upstairs?"
"Hmm, that’s a good suggestion, Pinting."
The three of them just came to an agreement.
Suddenly, several tall and burly bodyguards rushed into the store, heading straight for Gu Pinting. Without a word, they twisted her arm behind her: "Don’t move!"
Gu Pinting was in so much pain that tears almost came out: "I’m the eldest daughter of the Gu Family, how dare you treat me ..."
The bodyguard said coldly, "Take a picture first! Let Fourth Young Master confirm if it’s this woman!"
Gu Pinting screamed, "I’m going to be a celebrity, you can’t photograph my face!"
The bodyguards ignored her, swiftly took photos, and sent them out.
A few seconds later, there came a reply: "Wrong capture, it’s not this woman in white. This woman’s hair is like a bird’s nest, just based on the hairstyle it’s wrong; the girl Fourth Young Master is looking for has long, beautifully flowing hair."
Bodyguard: "...Unlucky! This bird’s nest hairstyle could kill someone."
They released Gu Pinting and hurried off to search again.
From start to finish, no one apologized or explained a word to her.
Gu Pinting was furious: "These people are so barbaric, are they bullying me because I’m good-looking? I want to call the police! I want them all in jail!"
Gu Shiyin watched the bodyguards leave in haste, pondering their brief words earlier, wondering: "Could it be that Fourth Young Master Nangong is looking for someone? Mistaken identity?"
Who could it be that looks similar to Gu Pinting and has caught the attention of Fourth Young Master?
Fourth Young Master is someone who devours his prey without leaving even the bones.
Nangong Mo just hung up the phone, sneeringly said: "A slippery little demon, got away again."
Qiu Guosheng looked at the man in front of him who resembled a cold-faced Buddha, involuntarily trembling a bit: "Fourth Young Master, all the surveillance footage you wanted is here."
Nangong Mo’s face was icy, lazily fiddling with an antique wine jar: "She gave it to you?"
His long fingers were holding the wine jar, making one’s heart tremble, as if in the next second it would fall and shatter into pieces on the ground!
