No matter what, Gu Shanshan is the daughter of the Gu family, why would she need to fake it?

But Gu Momo is different; she has countless blemishes on her record...

"Is that so?" Li Zhanting's eyes narrowed with a playful smile. "Besides always trying to get my attention, this woman is actually quite shrewd."

Mo Feng: Master Ting must have gone mad.

He searched through all of Gu Momo's information, and it was a complete mess...

Mr. Ting actually said that she was hiding her true abilities.

At this moment, Gu Momo downstairs said, "Everyone, Xingchen has a very special habit. She will use a craft knife to carve her exclusive symbol, a star, on the bottom of all her works. This lady's necklace happens to be one of Xingchen's early works. You can all pass it around for a look. As for the tiger pendant that President Gu has, I don't know if it still exists."

Upon hearing this, the guests were also very curious and flocked over to examine the necklace on Gu Momo's hand.

"It really is! There really is a star."

"I wonder if Mr. Gu has it on his pendant?"

"Yes, Mr. Gu, please show it to us!"

Gu Zhenting's expression suddenly changed, and the troubled look on his face was as if he had eaten shit, indescribable and inexplicable.

Actually, he had already secretly checked while Gu Momo was explaining to everyone, and there was no pattern engraved on the bottom at all.

But he couldn't bear to lose face in front of so many guests, so he tried to smooth things over by saying, "I won't look at mine, I know it myself. No matter what, it's Shanshan's idea! I like it, that's enough."

Once those words were spoken, the truth became crystal clear to everyone.

The guests couldn't help but whisper among themselves, "Pfft...it was a fake after all."

"So Miss Gu is this shameless! Judging from how practiced she is, she must have done her fair share of putting on a show..."

"Pfft... a socialite from a wealthy family? How embarrassing."

Gu Shanshan was so angry that her face turned red and then pale, wishing she could tear Gu Momo apart with her bare hands!

This is jewelry that she spent tens of millions to buy, and it turns out it's fake?

He was even exposed by Gu Momo in public!

Where will she put her face after this?!

She quickly tugged at Gu Zhenting's sleeve, "Dad, please explain this to everyone..."

Gu Zhenting's face darkened immediately, and he warned in a low voice, "Shanshan, stop messing around!"

Dong Qingrun also noticed something and quickly stepped forward to pull Gu Shanshan away, saying, "Shanshan, don't make things too awkward."

Seeing that her father and mother were both trying to persuade her, Gu Shanshan had no choice but to swallow her anger.

However, the guests' gazes toward Gu Shanshan had clearly shifted from fawning to mockery.

Some people even muttered under their breath, "What's with the pretense? He's obviously trying to show off with a fake, but he insists on claiming he was scammed. It's hilarious!"

In the VIP room upstairs, Li Zhanting casually raised an eyebrow and looked at Mo Feng, "Now, are you convinced?"

Mo Feng: "..."

Mr. Ting, why are you speaking up for Gu Momo?

When other women tried to attract your attention in the same way before, didn't you just ignore them?

Why did everything change when it came to Gu Momo?

The banquet soon transitioned to the dining session.

Dong Qingrun, accompanied by his two daughters, toasted and greeted the guests one by one. When they reached Gu Momo's table, Dong Qingrun led Gu Shanshan directly to her.

"Gu Momo, I don't know where you learned this shameless way of showing up uninvited. But since you're here, I'll still bring my two daughters to toast you. After all, you'll never have the chance to celebrate your birthday with your family again."

Dong Qingrun mocked viciously, each word hitting Gu Momo where it hurt the most.

Gu Momo couldn't help but sneer, her eyes cold and indifferent.

They drove her mother to her death, and now they're mocking her for being all alone, without parents.

That's ridiculous.

Hearing her mother speak like that, Gu Wanrou immediately stepped forward and shielded Dong Qingrun behind her.

"Sister Momo, I'm so glad you're back. If you need any help in the capital, feel free to contact me." Gu Wanrou elegantly raised her wine glass, maintaining an extremely comfortable social distance, her eyes smiling as she spoke gently.

Upon hearing Gu Wanrou's voice, Gu Momo casually raised her eyebrows.

Although Gu Momo hated the Gu family to the core, she couldn't bring herself to dislike the youngest daughter of the Gu family at all.

Gu Wanrou's appearance is different from Gu Shanshan's somewhat sharp and sarcastic look.

On the contrary, her personality is just like her name: gentle and graceful. She has long, straight black hair and loves to wear all kinds of simple and elegant long dresses.

Her entire demeanor was worlds apart from that of the Gu family, those ruthless monsters who devour people without spitting out the bones.

Sometimes, Gu Momo even wondered if Gu Wanrou had been born into the wrong family.

"Thank you, Wanrou. You're welcome to come visit me anytime you have time to catch up." Gu Momo smiled slightly and raised her wine glass to clink glasses lightly.

Both Dong Qingrun and Gu Shanshan could tell that their younger sister was deliberately protecting Gu Momo. So, after they finished toasting, Dong Qingrun pulled her aside by the shoulder and said with dissatisfaction,

"Wanrou, what are you doing? That's Gu Momo! Why are you being so polite to her? You're such a grown-up, why are you still siding with outsiders?"

Gu Shanshan chimed in, "That's right, little sister. You're not only not helping your older sister, but you're actually helping her? Are you even a member of the Gu family?"
