Chapter 76 Pain and Hatred
76
Although Gu Xiao had never met Jiang Siyu, he had heard of her.
The woman in front of him had even more delicate features than the big star Fu Lin, but the indifference in her eyes was intimidating.
It's exactly the same as the rumors.
However, Gu Xiao wasn't interested in women like Jiang Siyu, especially since Jiang Siyu was the president of Guanjing. He'd heard from his family that Jiang Siyu's identity was more than just the president of Guanjing on the surface.
What Gu Xiao feared most was that she and that madman Bo Siye were lovers.
Although Gu Xiao was a troublemaker, he knew his limits and wouldn't mess with people he couldn't afford to offend.
He acted like a fool first, so he has no choice but to accept whatever tricks Jiang Siyu pulls.
Gu Xiao nodded, a hint of displeasure in his eyes, but his face remained smiling and humble: "Gu's Group is currently preparing several S+ projects, and the directors are all among the most famous in the industry. I'll have someone send the information to President Jiang later, and President Jiang can choose whatever he likes, how about that?"
Since Jiang Siyu is standing up for Fu Lin, this minor celebrity, she might as well compensate the minor celebrity with resources.
"Okay." Jiang Siyu's coldness in her eyes finally faded a bit, but the price Gu Xiao had to pay was not enough.
If these people don't know that Fu Lin is someone I'm protecting, who knows how they'll cause trouble in the future.
To make an example of someone, the chicken must die a bloody death.
"However, this isn't the first time my Arlene has appeared in public. Young Master Gu never mentioned giving Arlene any resources before, so why is he suddenly coming up to me like this today?"
Jiang Siyu's question was directed at Gu Xiao, but her eyes were fixed on Jiang Yiruan, who was standing next to Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao was a smart man and immediately understood the meaning behind Jiang Siyu's words.
His gaze darkened as he turned to look at Jiang Yiruan, who was trying to appear calm, and recalled the scene from just now.
After entering the store, it was Jiang Yiruan who first made sarcastic remarks to Fu Lin. Since I came here with Jiang Yiruan, I saw that Jiang Yiruan was at a disadvantage in words, so I took the opportunity to support her.
Fu Lin is in the entertainment industry; she can't afford to offend anyone.
Gu Xiao didn't take Fu Lin seriously because he felt that the Fu family, which had declined and was only supported by Fu Lin, was not a threat.
However, if he was unaware that Fu Lin and Jiang Siyu were close friends, how could Jiang Yiruan, Jiang Siyu's half-sister, not know?
Gu Xiao initially thought he was just unlucky to have offended someone he shouldn't have, but now that he realized he had been set up by Jiang Yiruan, his expression naturally turned sour.
"Ruan Ruan, don't you think you should give me an explanation?"
Gu Xiao was also quite capable. After guessing that Jiang Siyu and Jiang Yiruan were at odds, he directly confronted Jiang Yiruan in front of Jiang Siyu.
How can this not be another way of appeasing and making peace?
Jiang Siyu and Fu Lin stopped shopping and settled into a comfortable position, waiting for Jiang Yiruan's reply.
Jiang Yiruan didn't expect the fire to spread to her so quickly. Meeting Gu Xiao's gloomy gaze, Jiang Yiruan moved her lips, but she knew that Gu Xiao was not as easy to fool as Gu Mian.
After a moment of silence, she could only stammer, "I'm sorry, I didn't know Jiang Siyu would be there."
"Are you out of your mind?" If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Yiruan and Ji Yanheng had a good relationship, Gu Xiao would definitely have slapped her.
How could Jiang Yiruan not know the meaning of the phrase "settling scores after the autumn harvest"?
Fu Lin isn't stupid; she wouldn't suffer injustice without telling her best friend.
Jiang Yiruan knew that she just didn't care because she felt that she wasn't the one who would bear the consequences.
Gu Xiao snorted coldly: "I'll remember what happened today. I'll definitely have a good talk with Uncle Jiang another day!"
“President Jiang,” Gu Xiao immediately suppressed his anger when he looked at Jiang Siyu, “I was blind to her first. I will definitely apologize to Miss Fu properly another day.”
“An apology is unnecessary, a gesture of remorse is enough,” Jiang Siyu replied.
Knowing that Jiang Siyu didn't want to get to know him better, Gu Xiao didn't press the matter; as long as they didn't make enemies, that was fine.
"President Jiang and Miss Fu, please continue having fun. I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave first." Gu Xiao said goodbye, and after seeing Jiang Siyu nod, he turned and left.
Jiang Yiruan called Gu Xiao's name twice, but he didn't stop. Everyone else understood that Jiang Yiruan had completely offended Gu Xiao.
We all got together because of mutual benefit, but now that our interests are in conflict, we're all going our separate ways.
Soon, of the group that came with Jiang Yiruan, only she was left alone. It wasn't that Jiang Yiruan didn't want to leave, but mainly that she didn't want to lose face in front of Jiang Siyu.
She suppressed her anger and looked at Jiang Siyu: "Are you satisfied now!"
"Not satisfied yet." Jiang Siyu smiled at her, and the next moment she raised her hand.
With a "smack!", Jiang Yiruan's head tilted to one side.
Jiang Siyu shook her hand, which was numb from exerting too much force. "Now, I'm satisfied."
"Jiang Siyu, ahhh!"
Jiang Yiruan covered her burning face and looked at Fu Lin, who was standing behind her looking smug. She felt a surge of anger rising from her heart.
She screamed and lunged at Jiang Siyu, having long forgotten Jiang Dingbang's warnings and Li Shuwan's instructions. All she wanted now was for Jiang Siyu, this bitch who had hit her time and time again, to pay the price.
But Jiang Yiruan was no match for Jiang Siyu. The moment she raised her hand, Jiang Siyu accurately grabbed it.
Before Jiang Yiruan could struggle, another clean and decisive slap landed on her face.
If the previous slap ignited Jiang Yiruan's anger, then this slap completely stunned her.
She stared at Jiang Siyu, whose expression was cold, her hands bearing the gradually emerging red marks. Her lips moved, and tears fell.
"I hate you! Why didn't you die abroad? Why did you come back!"
Jiang Siyu looked at her expressionlessly: "If you dare to lay a hand on Alin again, this slap will land on Li Shuwan's face."
"Jiang Yiruan." Jiang Siyu made no attempt to hide her disgust for the mother and daughter: "If you had any brains, you wouldn't have provoked me time and time again."
"You couldn't afford to offend the person I used to be, and you can't afford to offend the person I am now."
"So what!" Jiang Yiruan clenched her hands tightly: "Dad still sent you abroad for me and Mom."
"How does it feel to be thrown out like a stray dog?" Jiang Yiruan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth:
"It's a real shame that my mom and I will never experience this feeling in our lives."
Every word she uttered was like a knife stabbing into Jiang Siyu's heart.
Fu Lin held Jiang Siyu's hand with concern, wanting to comfort her.
But Jiang Siyu simply stared calmly at the malice in Jiang Yiruan's eyes:
"Don't worry, I'll let you and your daughter experience it."
If she doesn't repay the pain and hatred of that year tenfold, she wouldn't be Jiang Siyu!
