Chapter 40: The Wicked Stepmother Who Abandoned the Twins (40)

Qingyun brought Wen Wan to the hotel and entered the Shen family's birthday banquet with the invitation.

"You'll stay close to me for a while. If you get hungry, go to the dining area next door and have some snacks. Don't wander off, okay?"

"I understand, Sister Yun. I promise I won't run around."

Qingyun was quickly pulled away by acquaintances to chat, while Wen Wan found a corner to sit in. Most of the people invited this time were celebrities from all walks of life.

"These are all ingredients; this is what a grand banquet should be like."

System: [Host, ignore all other materials and keep a close eye on Shen Li.]

Wen Wan saw Shen Li.

Shen Li wore an embroidered fishtail dress, with a beautiful figure and a face as pretty as ever. However, compared to a few years ago, the lychee who had been peeled back then now had a more aloof aura.

He skillfully followed his parents and the guests in conversation.

A dozen minutes later, Gu Ci arrived.

Gu Ci, dressed in a suit, walked in with his assistant Chen standing behind him, and everyone's eyes were drawn to this young business tycoon.

Mr. and Mrs. Shen quickly went to greet them.

"I'm so happy that President Gu could come. This is my daughter, Shen Li. She used to work at Gu's."

Mr. Shen nudged Shen Li, who greeted him, "President Gu."

"Um."

Mr. Shen: "Xiao Li also told us that she has learned a lot at Gu's company and is well taken care of by President Gu. I really want to thank President Gu here."

Gu Ci: "Miss Shen Li is very capable at work. She can be seen whether she is in Gu's or not. I have not helped her in any way."

"Mr. Gu is too modest."

Wen Wan watched this scene from afar and saw Shen Li standing next to Gu Ci.

"Is that the president of the Gu Group? He's so handsome! How come he got married so young?" A few people nearby were chatting.

"And he's so devoted. It's been five years and Mr. Gu hasn't remarried. He's so virtuous and clean-living. He's a breath of fresh air in the world of the wealthy. I really envy Mrs. Gu. What a pity."

What a pity?

Unfortunately, this Mrs. Gu was not fortunate enough to enjoy it.

Wen Wan was somewhat disappointed.

"Shen Li is so beautiful. If I didn't know that President Gu was so in love with his deceased wife, I would think that they might be together. They look so well-matched."

"However, I think President Shen seems to be interested in this. It's about marriage between wealthy families. If the Shen family and the Gu family can really get married, that would be big news."

Wen Wan couldn't take it.

My heart felt like it was stuffed with cotton wool, so I picked up a glass of wine and started drinking.

"You bastard, I'm really upset!"

system:【……】

Wen Wan quickly finished her cup and then had another one.

"You bastard, you're utterly useless and a complete hindrance. You've deceived me so badly."

"I know I shouldn't have done this. I know I lied to him. I lied to Xuanxuan and Jiaojiao. I lied to them just to save my life."

【Host, please stop drinking.】

"I know perfectly well that Gu Ci and Shen Li are a perfect match, and that I should be cannon fodder, then take the money from the divorce and disappear, but why can't I control myself?"

[Host, you're drunk. Stop drinking.]

"I'm not drunk, I just feel unwell."

"I just feel terrible."

"Ugh, I'm going to throw up."

system:【! ! ! 】

[Wait, go to the restroom, hurry up and go to the restroom, don't throw up here.]

Wen Wan was still somewhat conscious, so she staggered to the bathroom.

Wow~

[Host, you've entered the wrong room. This is the men's restroom.]

Wow~~~

system:【……】

"I feel terrible! I feel like throwing up."

[Host, leave immediately, something terrible will happen, you'll be seen as a pervert.]

Just then, a man patted Wen Wan on the back, "Miss, are you alright? Are you drunk?"

【Host, wake up!】 The system was going crazy when it saw that scoundrel starting to support Wen Wan.

"Do you need me to help you?" The man looked at Wen Wan's delicate and beautiful face and reached out to touch it.

"Get away from me."

Wen Wan almost fell over, but the man caught her. "Miss, you're too drunk. Let me help you back to your room."

[Host!!! Wake up! You're in danger, you know that? Wen Wan, wake up!!!]

"go home."

"Yes, yes, I'll help you home."

Wen Wan shook off the man, "Let go of me, I feel like throwing up~"

Wow~

man:"……"

The man touched Wen Wan's delicate waist. "Miss, I'll take you home."

[Host, if you don't wake up soon, you're really going to get groped by that pervert.]

"satyr?"

man:"……"

He helped Wen Wan up, saying, "What pervert? I'm a good person, I'll help you home."

Wen Wan suddenly struggled, "No, you pervert! Let me go!!!"

But how could a man let go of this exquisite little beauty? He was so aroused by her touch that he felt like his whole body was on fire.

"I'm not a pervert, I'm someone who helps you."

"No, get away."

"You bastard, let her go!" The system was frantic, but it had no physical form and couldn't help its host at all.

As Wen Wan struggled more and more fiercely, the man used more and more force, and at this moment, he asked, "What are you doing?"

The man looked over and said, "She's my girlfriend, and we're having a fight right now."

Gu Ci looked at the man coldly, "Girlfriend? Having a tantrum in the men's restroom?"

Gu Ci reached out and pulled the man away.

"Let me go, you pervert!"

Gu Ci recognized the woman's face. It was her.

Do you know this man?

Wen Wan couldn't hear what anyone was saying, "I feel nauseous~ I feel like throwing up~"

"She really is my girlfriend."

"She's my business partner's assistant. Since you say she's your girlfriend, what's her name?"

man:"……"

"Looks like you're not her boyfriend. If you don't leave, I'm calling the police." Saying this, she was about to make a phone call. The man thought to himself that he probably wouldn't be able to get his hands on this easy target, so he left.

Gu Ci supported the woman.

"How are you?"

"No, I'm so bad, I'm so bad... Waaah~~~~" Wen Wan started to cry, overcome with grief. Gu Ci led her out of the bathroom.

"I'm heartbroken. The person I love is going to love another woman. He doesn't want me anymore... hiccup..."

"It's my fault... hiccup... waah~"

The system could only watch helplessly as its host pulled Gu Ci along and then vomited on Gu Ci's suit.

system:【……】

Host, the day you wake up will be the day you die. Go live on another planet then.

Gu Ci felt a sharp pain in his temples.

"I'll contact Qingyun for you."

"He just kissed me, bit my lip until it bled, and now he likes other women~ Waaaaaah~~~~~"

Gu Ci paused.

"Shen Li is beautiful~ If I were a guy, I'd... I'd like her too~ Hehe~~~"

system:【……】

[Host, you'd better shut up. You're about to expose everything you've ever done.]

It's going crazy. How can the host's drunken antics be so terrifying?
