As soon as they got to the restroom, Qin Jingwen ran off to vomit, leaving Bai Qianmo to wait outside.
There weren't many people using the restrooms, making it quite quiet.
Bai Qianmo leaned against the window, staring at the dark night. After a moment of contemplation, she took out her phone and sent a message.
"Was the old man's copy of 'Microcosm' auctioned off?"
A moment later, the phone made a "ding" sound.
Bai Qianmo squinted at it.
"How could that be? That's the old man's lifeblood; he practically sleeps with it every night."
Bai Qianmo tugged at the corner of her lips and let out a soft laugh.
Just then, the sound of footsteps came.
Bai Qianmo looked up and saw Gu Hongxun walking towards her, his phone to his ear, seemingly making a call.
When Gu Hongxun saw Bai Qianmo, a hint of surprise was clearly visible in his eyes.
He spent the whole day with his family, and with so many people coming to celebrate his seventh uncle's birthday, he didn't pay attention to who the guests were.
When I saw Bai Qianmo, I was truly shocked.
What are you doing here?
Logically speaking, given Bai Qianmo's status, it would be absolutely impossible for her to appear at the Gu family's residence.
Then she wondered if Du Muchen had brought her here. On set, many people had privately spread rumors about an ambiguous relationship between Du Muchen and Bai Qianmo.
However, Gu Hongxun changed his mind.
Du Muchen is currently attending an important event abroad and didn't come today at all.
Bai Qianmo didn't speak, and a female voice came from the other end of Gu Hongxun's phone.
Who are you talking to?
"It's nothing. I just met someone unexpected here. Since you're not feeling well, don't use your phone. Get some rest."
After hearing what was said on the other end, Gu Hongxun hung up the phone.
He put his phone in his pocket and looked at Bai Qianmo with a cold smile.
"I didn't expect you to be so capable. You managed to subdue someone as difficult as Du Muchen. I wonder who lost their mind and brought you to the Gu family this time? Oh, speaking of which, we're still classmates, even though you're just an auditor."
Bai Qianmo blinked her clear eyes, feeling a little curious. She and Gu Hongxun had never interacted on set, so why was he so hostile towards her?
"You're telling me so much, do you mean we're very close?"
Bai Qianmo not only didn't show anger, but instead revealed a hint of teasing smile.
I remember reading in a book that the most direct and deadliest way to retaliate against an enemy is to completely disregard them while they are fully prepared for a fierce battle.
That feeling was even more humiliating than being trampled and rubbed into the ground by two people in a peak battle.
Ignoring the enemy is the best revenge against him.
Bai Qianmo's casual and lazy demeanor was seen as a provocation by Gu Hongxun, and his expression immediately turned cold.
Suddenly remembering something, Gu Hongxun's eyes narrowed dangerously, as if filled with immense mockery and contempt, and he let out a cold snort.
"You must have a purpose in showing up here, right? Who are you trying to seduce this time? Could it be someone from the Gu family? It can't be..."
Gu Hongxun's face flushed crimson, his cheeks puffing out as if he were angry.
"Bai Qianmo, don't be delusional. I will never like you."
Bai Qianmo: "..."
She glanced at Gu Hongxun with a look that said "I'm an idiot," and as if that wasn't enough, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Where does your confidence come from?"
Did she express a slight liking for him?
They don't even know each other, this person is blindly confident.
Gu Hongxun's face turned even redder with anger, and he said angrily, "Besides me, do you know anyone else in the Gu family? Don't tell me you're here for my seventh uncle."
Bai Qianmo raised an eyebrow: "Why not?"
Whether it was a deliberate provocation of Gu Hongxun or a resonance deep within her heart, Bai Qianmo subconsciously replied with this sentence.
Gu Hongxun's handsome face scrunched up like a bitter gourd, his lips pursed for a long time, as if staring at a huge joke, as he carefully examined Bai Qianmo from all angles.
"Bai Qianmo, is your face made of iron? Otherwise, how can you say such shameless things without blushing or panting? You even want to seduce my seventh uncle? Even I wouldn't look at someone like you. My seventh uncle wouldn't even give you a second glance. You'd better give up now."
Gu Hongxun seemed to be so angry that he actually laughed.
After thinking it over, he realized that Bai Qianmo might really have come for him.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that they were in the same film crew, and she even went to his class as an auditor, and now she even came to Uncle Seven's birthday party to pretend to bump into him.
This woman has absolutely no bottom line.
"Bai Qianmo, don't try any tricks on me. Playing hard to get won't work on me at all. Let me be blunt, I don't even look at girls like you."
He already had a goddess in his heart, and he would never like a vulgar and vain woman like Bai Qianmo.
After saying this, Gu Hongxun turned and strode away.
Bai Qianmo stared at Gu Hongxun's departing figure and gently tugged at the corners of her lips.
It is said that the Gu family is good at producing strategists, each one skilled in planning and scheming. But it seems that not all of them are like that; there are always some who have gone astray.

Qin Jingwen vomited until her stomach was empty, patted her chest as she walked out of the bathroom, rinsed her mouth, and then washed her face with cold water.
Her little face was all rosy and quite tempting.
Seeing Bai Qianmo staring at her, Qin Jingwen blushed and weakly grabbed Bai Qianmo's wrist.
"Qianmo, I feel completely empty inside. Can you smell if I smell of alcohol?"
Bai Qianmo leaned closer and sniffed: "There's more."
When Bai Qianmo leaned closer, Qin Jingwen suddenly looked a little stunned. She tilted her head and glanced at Bai Qianmo, then suddenly leaned over and sniffed Bai Qianmo for a while.
"How come even your scent is so similar to my crush's..."
The scent was very unique. When her crush was holding her, she was leaning on his shoulder. It was a very faint scent, not like perfume, but more like a natural body fragrance.
So she remembered the scent after smelling it once, and unexpectedly, Qianmo had the same scent.
Bai Qianmo narrowed her eyes slightly and stared intently at Qin Jingwen for a moment.
The "male god" this girl is talking about, could it be...?
Is it her?
