Chapter 855 No matter how cunning you are, it's all in vain.

"Gu Tingyun didn't stop her at all back then, and even spoke up for Jiaojiao. He really spoils her to the bone! Bai Jingjing, no matter how scheming you are, it's no use. Young Master Gu won't even give you a second glance!" Bai Weiying had long seen through Bai Jingjing's methods and tricks.

It's just a trick that the second wife usually uses; it's not respectable at all!

Jiaojiao is such a good person, she would never allow Bai Jingjing to ruin the relationship between Jiaojiao and Gu Tingyun!

"Sister, men are all about novelty. They may cherish you like a precious jewel now, but once the novelty wears off, they will naturally change their minds."

Bai Jingjing only almost lost her composure for a moment, and quickly recovered.

"The two of them have a great relationship! Throughout the entire auction, Young Master Gu's eyes were on Jiao Jiao. No matter what you do, it's all in vain!"

Bai Weiying scoffed, "And what do you think Young Master Gu is? Do you even deserve to be a daughter-in-law of the Gu family? You really think he doesn't care about anything!"

After saying that, Bai Weiying turned around and went back to her room.

Bai Jingjing's background is her fatal flaw.

She stood alone in the corridor, the smile that had been on her face suddenly vanishing, her eyes filled with resentment, her nails digging tightly into her palms, her body trembling slightly with anger.

Because of her background as the second wife, she suffered countless taunts and disdain from others, both openly and secretly, from childhood to adulthood.

That's why she insisted on getting on board with Gu Tingyun!

At that time, the second branch of the family will have the power to compete with the first branch for the right of inheritance.

She wanted to see what kind of expression her dear older sister would have when the time came!

"Jingjing?" Mr. Bai came out of his study and saw her standing alone in the corridor. He called out to her with a puzzled look on his face.

Bai Jingjing immediately regained her usual smile and softly called out, "Father!"

"What are you doing standing here all by yourself?" Mr. Bai asked.

Bai Jingjing said softly, "Father, it's nothing, I was just about to go to sleep!"

Mr. Bai responded indifferently.

Bai Jingjing nodded in agreement and went back to her room to rest.

The next day, major Hong Kong newspapers began to report extensively on the auction the previous night on their front pages.

[A wealthy young man spends 30 million just to win a smile from his beloved!]

Gu Tingyun and Helian Jiao did not go out today. They sat in their hotel room and had Shi Yisheng bring them breakfast to eat in the room. There was also a new newspaper next to the breakfast.

The little princess was very unhappy!

Because the newspaper only featured Gu Tingyun's photo and name, she only showed a dark head, without even a name!

But in fact, Gu Tingyun had keenly sensed that the two of them were being photographed without their consent, so he deliberately used his body to block Guaibao from being judged by random people.

As for himself, he didn't care.

After finishing breakfast, the two were immediately surrounded by a group of paparazzi who had been waiting outside the hotel for an interview as soon as they stepped out.

"Young Master Gu, we are from the Morning Daily. May we interview you?"

"I'm from the Port City Times!"

"The monthly report at that time!"

...

Several people eagerly introduced themselves.

Gu Tingyun's face immediately darkened, and a sharp look swept over them, making everyone's hair stand on end, and they immediately dared not act rashly.

They all stepped back at the same time, maintaining an appropriate distance for the interview.

Originally, Gu Tingyun wouldn't have paid any attention to the paparazzi on her own; she would have just left.

But the little princess really wanted to be in the newspapers, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the paparazzi.
