Chapter 39

It was already ten o’clock at night when the charity auction ended.

Gu Wan’an sat in the car, hugging her stomach with both hands. She was tired and hungry.

Feifei’s eyes lit up as she looked at her without blinking. “Sister Ziqing, you’re different from usual tonight.”

“What’s different?”

“Uh…” Feifei thought about it carefully. “Cool, and especially smart.”

“Am I usually especially stupid?” Gu Wan’an teased.

Hearing this, Feifei was frightened. Her face paled and her voice trembled. “Sister Ziqing, that’s not what I meant. I was wrong. I was really wrong!”

As she apologized, she also slapped herself.

The hand was heavy and she hit herself so hard that her face was covered in palm prints.

Gu Wan’an frowned.

How irascible must Shen Ziqing have been normally to leave such a shadow in the little girl’s heart? Without saying a word, she slapped herself directly.

“Stop, stop hitting. I was just joking with you.” She uttered.

However, Feifei didn’t stop. Instead, her hand fell even harder.

Gu Wan’an rubbed her temples as she felt a headache coming on. With a cold face, she scolded sternly, “Enough, don’t make me repeat myself!”

This time, Feifei stopped. Her shoulders trembled and she didn’t dare to look up.

“I’ll give you a chance to make up for your mistake.”

Gu Wan’an took out a hundred yuan and placed it in her hand. “Get out of the car now and buy a packet of instant noodles. Remember to buy spicy ones, and a box of ointment.”

“Huh?”

Feifei was stunned.

On the other side.

Liu Yiyi held her breath as she left the toilets. She leaned against the wall and retched non-stop.

“Yiyi, are you alright?”

Zhou Shutong looked at her with concern.

“It’s fine … Ugh … It’s just a little disgusting…”

Before she could finish her sentence, she retched again.

“It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t be in this state because of Shen Ziqing.” Zhou Shutong was kind enough to pat Liu Yiyi’s back as she endured the nauseating smell on her body.

“This has nothing to do with you. It’s all because of that b*tch, Shen Ziqing. How dare she frame me, I must kill her. ”

“But why was the necklace in your bag?”

Liu Yiyi was silent as she carefully thought about the whole thing.

Then, she realized what was going on. “I remember now! When I entered the banquet hall, a waiter bumped into me with red wine and my bag fell to the ground. It was definitely at that time that the waiter slipped the necklace inside when I wasn’t paying attention.”

Zhou Shutong nodded. “Don’t you think that Shen Ziqing seems to have become smarter this time?”

Not only did she notice that Liu Yiyi had tampered with her bag, but she also launched a perfect counterattack.

“She was just lucky this time. She’s famous for being an idiot in the entertainment industry.” Liu Yiyi rolled her eyes and said disdainfully, “There’s still a long way to go. If I don’t fix her, my surname isn’t Liu!”

..

Gu Wan’an only returned to the Gong residence at half past eleven.

The servants had all gone to bed and the villa was especially quiet.

She casually placed her bag on the sofa. Without even changing out of her dress, she quietly walked into the kitchen.

To fit into the dress and attend the auction, she hadn’t eaten anything from two o’clock in the afternoon until now except for a glass of juice.

She was starving to death!

“Grrr….”

Her stomach kept growling non-stop as if it was playing a symphony.

She turned the stove on and boiled the water.

Then, she took out the spicy beef noodles that Feifei had bought. She tore open the packaging and threw the noodles in. Once it was almost cooked, she added all the seasonings and cracked an egg.

She breathed in and smelled the fragrance that was drifting around, finally feeling alive again.

Gu Wan’an was in a good mood as she picked up the instant noodles. She hummed a tune and turned around.

And–

Out of the blue, she came face to face with Gong Mingye, who had appeared at the kitchen door out of nowhere.

She froze.

Dumbstruck like a rock.
