Seeing Qin An’s reaction, Ji Nan still maintained a respectful attitude, "The Princess has been in a bad mood recently and is preparing to go on vacation tomorrow. She has invited you to join her, and we’re setting out at eight o’clock in the morning."
Qin An was even more thrilled and quickly nodded, "Okay!"
Li Linglong’s heart was filled with unease.
Although the trouble at home had temporarily subsided, she still had not officially returned to Princess Mo’s circle, and that made her very uneasy.
Now, watching He Yong’er and Fang Tiantian rightfully enjoying their tea and pastries, she voiced her concerns, "Are you sure this is going to work? Princess Mo seems to really like Gu Wenjuan; if we mess up again this time, we won’t have another chance to turn things around."
"You’re an idiot," Fang Tiantian said, "Last time it was just bad timing being caught by Young Master Yu. She had to put on a show for Young Master Yu, to demonstrate her importance to him. Yong’er’s brother works for the Yu Family; he’s checked, and today Young Master Yu has to go to Los Angeles to sign an important contract; he can’t possibly show up here."
Li Linglong harbored resentment towards Fang Tiantian and turned her head away, pretending not to hear her.
Fang Tiantian felt suffocated by her frustration, and suddenly a waiter brought someone over. The three of them looked back and saw that it was Gu Wenjuan.
Gu Wenjuan had specially dressed in the clothes provided by Special Assistant Yu today, just to look decent and not embarrass Princess Mo.
At the sight of He Yong’er and the other two, she felt somewhat frightened.
These people had made things difficult for her at Princess Mo’s engagement party.
She forced a smile and greeted, "Hello..."
"Of course we are well," Fang Tiantian was looking for an outlet for her frustration and upon seeing Gu Wenjuan, scoffed, "But that’s nothing compared to your good fortune, enjoying Princess Mo’s grace, living in Princess Mo’s man’s house, and spending Princess Mo’s man’s money. How many people could be as lucky as you?"
Gu Wenjuan felt even more awkward and lowered her head, not saying a word.
"Are you mute?" Li Linglong stood up, walked over to Gu Wenjuan, and gave her a shove, "What do you even count for, making Young Master Yu and Princess Mo argue and causing me to suffer along with it? Your seductive tricks are quite something!"
Gu Wenjuan stepped back and protested softly, "I didn’t do anything."
"Ever since you showed up, Princess Mo has been in a terrible mood; you still say you didn’t do anything?" Follow current novels on Nove1Fire.net
Apprehension flickered in Gu Wenjuan’s eyes, "Has Princess Mo been in a really bad mood lately?"
"Don’t play dumb, Princess Mo is upset because of you!" He Yong’er also stood up, her eyes throwing daggers, "Everyone knows you’re living in Young Master Yu’s apartment; now they’re all laughing at Princess Mo, saying she can’t even compare to a country bumpkin!"
"I..." Gu Wenjuan felt extremely aggrieved, "I’m sorry..."
"Sorry?" Li Linglong stepped forward and harshly slapped Gu Wenjuan across the face, "My family nearly went bankrupt because of you; you almost killed my whole family!"
Gu Wenjuan’s head turned to the side, and tears immediately started flowing. She covered half of her face and backed away, her voice choking, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."
Li Linglong’s face twisted with rage, "You still have the face to cry..."
"Do you still have the face to come here?"
A voice suddenly pierced through, filled with slim anger and a mesmerizing, deep resonance.
Upon hearing this voice, Gu Wenjuan paused, turned her head, and the towering figure came into view against the light, surrounded by a retinue, dazzling to behold.
Her heart skipped a beat, a flutter she shouldn’t be feeling surged wildly in that moment.
