Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Wan’an had just sat down on the sofa when she felt her phone vibrate.
She took out her phone and opened the message.
[Waiting for you in the bathroom. Hurry up! ]
The text message was from an unknown number, and it only had a few words.
She wrinkled her nose and sent a text back. [Who are you?]
I You’ll know in a while. However, I should be the person you want to see the most at the moment. Don’t waste time.] The other party replied very quickly and with great impatience.
The person she wanted to see the most…
Gu Wan’an stared at the words, her expression a little dazed.
Mu Zi’an or Shen Ziqing?
Her chest heaved slightly as she put away her phone and stood up. “I’m going to the bathroom.”
“Hm.” Gong Mingye put out the cigarette between his fingers and nodded faintly.
Once she stepped into the bathroom, she found that no one was there. Gu Wan’an frowned and prepared to send a text message to the unknown number.
At that moment-
The door behind her suddenly opened, and a hand reached out from inside and grabbed her arm, pulling her in.
“Gu Wan’an, long time no see.”
A clear and familiar voice sounded in the bathroom.
Gu Wan’an’s pupils shrank as she turned around abruptly.
The woman slowly took off her sunglasses, revealing a beautiful yet almost identical face to hers. It was none other than Shen Ziqing.
“I didn’t expect that an ugly duckling like you could become a white swan. Wearing a haute couture dress, you really don’t look as rustic as before.” Shen Ziqing crossed her arms and turned around elegantly to look at Gu Wan’an.
“Why did you suddenly come over without a warning?” Gu Wan’an stared at her coldly.
“Why? Are you addicted to being the Second Young Lady and dislike me for coming back too early?”
“Hehe, you have a lot of nerves!” Gu Wan’an sneered and her gaze sank. “If you’re not afraid of the Gong family finding out, what should I be afraid of?”
Shen Ziqing chuckled, “Don’t worry, you’re not needed now, you should also go back from wherever you came from. So, let’s swap back.”
Gu Wan’an didn’t say anything more and took off the dress in a few moves.
Shen Ziqing also handed her clothes to her.
Both of them put on the other’s clothes.
After changing her makeup, Shen Ziqing didn’t want to stay in this place for even a second.
Remembering something, Gu Wan’an said, “Wait a minute.”
“What now?” Shen Ziqing’s face was full of impatience and turned around with disgust. “Are you regretting? Not willing to go back to your trashy place? Gu Wan’an, listen carefully. Don’t be delusional. People have to accept their fate. You’re born poor. Don’t think that you’re a phoenix just because you’ve pretended to be a young lady for a few days.”
Gu Wan’an raised her eyebrows.
Shen Ziqing really has a filthy mouth that cannot utter decent language.
But, she was already used to it, and her words went in one ear and out the other.
She reached out and pulled the silk handkerchief off her head, handing it over. “Here.”
“Tsk, what a country bumpkin. Using a silk handkerchief to tie your hair. What kind of lousy aesthetic is it?”
Shen Ziqing rolled her eyes and grabbed the silk handkerchief impatiently, tying her hair into a ponytail.
The dark green dress and silk handkerchief were indeed a good match.
Gu Wan’an’s gaze fell on the dark green silk handkerchief that Shen Ziqing had already put on. Her eyes lingered and she couldn’t move her gaze away for a while.
“Remember, sneak out from the back door. Don’t be discovered, or else…” Shen Ziqing was still uneasy. She turned around and left the bathroom.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Gu Wan’an put on the hat and sunglasses.
Passing by the hall, she saw Shen Ziqing pushing Gong Mingye with a smile on her face.
Her steps paused.
Suddenly, Gong Mingye’s gaze swept over.
Gu Wan’an’s heart tightened. She quickened her steps and left hurriedly..
