Only after Beiming Han left, did Gu Qingxin heave a sigh of relief, her tense nerves relaxing. She leaned on the edge of the bath, quietly enjoying the gentle caress of the potion…
By the time the young girl woke up, it was already the next morning.
She didn’t even remember how she had returned to her bedroom…
Beiming Han was no longer in the room. After Gu Qingxin got out of bed, freshened up, and changed her clothes, she went downstairs. Aunt Zhou informed her that the young master had left for work early today.
Her driver dropped her off at school. No sooner had she entered the school gate than she saw the last person she wanted to see… Gu Yunci!
Gu Yunci, dressed in the latest Chanel dress, with her hair styled into glamorous large curls, and her face adorned with exquisite makeup, looked absolutely divine from afar.
The moment she saw Gu Qingxin, Gu Yunci walked straight over to her, attracting the attention of numerous classmates, for no one knew the two, studying at the same school, in the same department, were sisters.
It was the apology video Gu Yunci recorded that brought their sisterly relationship to light.
Although Gu Yunci had won over a fair amount of sympathy with her acting, there were many people who took a dim view of her.
“Gu Qingxin, come with me. I have something to ask you,” Gu Yunci blocked Gu Qingxin’s path.
“I have nothing to say to you. Please step aside,” Gu Qingxin looked at her, her expression cold.
“Really? Grandpa’s death anniversary is coming up soon. What if I say something nasty about you in front of dad and grandma… I wonder if they’d even let you and Aunt Lin pay your respects,” Gu Yunci smirked confidently as if assured that Qingxin couldn’t refuse.
Gu Qingxin was so angry that she could barely resist the urge to slap this woman. She dared to use the anniversary of grandpa’s death as leverage to threaten her.
If it weren’t for the fact that she was pregnant, Gu Qingxin wouldn’t have been able to control herself!
When they were in the Gu family, only grandpa was kind to her and her mother. Eventually, he too passed away due to Zhou Mantong’s incident.
The mother-daughter duo showed no remorse and even intensified their efforts, completely oblivious to the concept of shame.
Gu Yunci stopped only when she reached the playground. Looking back at the slowly following girl, her eyes flashed with a crazed jealousy. Gu Qingxin was growing more beautiful, she didn’t even wear makeup, and yet her skin was as delicately fair as a baby’s. Her exquisite features were breathtaking. Her black hair casually tied back was stunning.
But it wasn’t the same for her. Gu Yunci was decent looking, but her skin was neither good nor fair. She had to spend two hours on makeup every day to look pretty. Yet, she lacked grace. When she first started dating Tang Rongling, she did not dare to remove her makeup at night…
“Say what you want to say. I’m going to be late for class,” Gu Qingxin looked at her coldly.
“What’s your relationship with that man from Sheng Ming Corporation?” To this day, Gu Yunci was unwilling to admit that Gu Qingxin and Beiming Han could be in that sort of relationship.
“Which man?” Although Gu Qingxin knew she was referring to Beiming Han, she continued to look at her coldly.
“Don’t play dumb. The man who took you away from my engagement ceremony with Ah Ling!” Gu Yunci’s expression turned slightly ferocious.
“Why should 1 tell you?” Gu Qingxin adjusted her backpack, looked away, and no longer wanted to see Gu Yunci’s ugly face.
“His name is Beiming Han, isn’t it?”
Now, even thinking about that man made Gu Yunci feel hot. He was like a walking sex drug. One glance, and she would….
