Chapter 182: Spreading Rumors

Translator: _Min_

Song Yu’s eyes flickered momentarily before she adopted a look of indignation on behalf of Gu Zhi, saying passionately, “Gu Dai has gone too far! Zhizhi, you shouldn’t be lenient with someone like her. If she can do such things, you should find a way to deal with her!”

Upon seeing Song Yu’s demeanor, a hint of amusement crossed Gu Zhi’s eyes. She had thought the Song family members would be more astute, but this was quite naive of them.

Feeling at ease now, Gu Zhi spoke, “I have considered retaliating against Gu Dai, but she’s formidable. Not only was I unable to teach her a lesson, I ended up being the one bullied.”

Song Yu pretended to be deep in thought for a while, then her face lit up as if she had an idea, “Think about it, does Gu Dai have any strange habits? Once you figure them out, you can tell others and let the news spread.”

Gu Zhi looked somewhat perplexed, “Strange habits?”

Song Yu nodded, affirming, “Exactly!”

Having spent a considerable amount of time caring for Gu Dai recently, Gu Zhi had gotten to know her quite well. But no matter how much she thought, she couldn’t recall any strange habits of Gu Dai.

Gu Zhi stared blankly at Song Yu, shaking her head, “I don’t think there are any.”

Song Yu was growing frustrated. She felt an urge to smack some sense into Gu Zhi and pressed, “Think harder! Is there anything you’ve overlooked?”

Gu Zhi replied earnestly, “No.”

Inwardly, Song Yu was exasperated. If there were none, couldn’t Gu Zhi just make up a few? The end goal was to make life difficult for Gu Dai; was there really a need for complete accuracy?

Still, Song Yu managed to suppress her annoyance, and with a guiding smile, she said, “Think about it, during those three years she disappeared, what might have happened to her? Maybe she got married, became pregnant, had a miscarriage, or had encounters with various men.”

Having heard Song Yu’s words, realization dawned on Gu Zhi. She immediately understood what she needed to do.

In fact, she could already visualize a future where, after executing this plan, Gu Dai was scorned by everyone, while she seized the opportunity to reclaim the Gu Group.

With a grateful smile, Gu Zhi said to Song Yu, “Thank you. 1’11 start working on this right away!”

Song Yu nodded, replying with an equally warm smile, “Good.”

Song Yu watched Gu Zhi’s retreating figure, lowering her head slightly as the corners of her lips curled into a sly smile.

With still an hour left before the exhibition began, Gu Dai, feeling restless within the banquet hall, decided to step out for some fresh air.

But to her surprise, just as she stepped out of the hall, she saw a captivating woman standing at the entrance, loudly declaring to the people around, “Do you know Gu Dai? The newly appointed chairwoman of the Gu Group?”

Wei Ling’s words had many turn their gaze to her. Someone chimed in, “Of course we do. The news of Miss Gu’s return swept across all major platforms!”

Wei Ling, seated comfortably with her arms crossed, continued with a smirk, “Since you all know, let me just spill it. I heard that during the three years she disappeared, she got married. But even after that, she couldn’t stay faithful and wandered among dozens of men, even those you could sleep with just by paying. Because of this, she’s had hundreds of miscarriages…”

The surrounding crowd was in utter shock, with someone incredulously asking, “That’s impossible! Gu Dai is the heiress of the Gu family. Where did you hear such rumors?”

Refusing to back down, Wei Ling retorted defiantly, “How could this possibly be a rumor? And even if she’s rich, maybe she enjoys the thrill of betraying her husband. She is so wild, spending time with over a dozen men every day…”

Gu Dai’s gaze darkened as she watched Wei Ling spewing more and more outrageous claims. Unable to contain her fury, she swiftly grabbed a wine glass from a nearby table, marched over to Wei Ling, and drenched her face with the wine.

Wei Ling’s speech halted abruptly, her eyes widening in disbelief as she stared at Gu Dai.

Upon seeing Gu Dai’s stunning features, she was momentarily stunned, never imagining that someone could look so exquisite. But soon after, envy crept in.

With a darkened face and a hostile tone, Wei Ling snapped, “You dared to pour wine on me.. Do you know who I am?”
