As the year drew to a close, Yun felt a pang in her heart.
No wonder he left this morning.
I see.
Yun Suiwan suppressed the pain welling up in her heart and raised an eyebrow at Gu Fanyan.
What, she wants to get involved in this?
Gu Fanyan stepped forward, stood firmly, and said calmly, "What are you still standing there for? Aren't you going to help my third aunt up?"
These words were spoken to the two bodyguards who were following Sister Li.
The two bodyguards quickly stepped forward, helped Sister Li up, and escorted her to Gu Fanyan.
"Yan'er." Sister Li had fallen quite hard, and her voice was weak and feeble.
"Find a doctor to examine my third aunt's injury," Gu Fanyan instructed.
The bodyguards took Sister Li away.
Yun Suiwan watched coldly the whole time.
At this moment, Gu Fanyan slowly looked at her and said, "Yun Suiwan, you really know how to bully people, even on the island."
Yun Suiwan retorted without hesitation: "You're quite good at recognizing relatives too, calling someone like this your third cousin."
“Then she’s my third cousin,” Gu Fanyan shrugged. “Now that you know, I don’t want to see you bullying her anymore.”
"Fine, you make her take those women to apologize to Lei Bo and his mother, and promise never to bully them again, then I won't bully her anymore either," Yun Suiwan sneered.
Gu Fanyan frowned: "Yun Suiwan, I never realized before that you were so annoying. No wonder~ Hehe."
She hesitated, as if she had some important secret waiting for Yun Suiwan to ask her.
She had already prepared her words, saying that it was no wonder Lu Dongjue would abandon Yun Suiwan.
It was like stabbing Yun Suiwan in the heart.
"Let's go." Yun Suiwan called to Da Wen and Xiao Wu, and left without looking back.
She had absolutely no interest in Gu Fanyan's pretentious antics.
Gu Fanyan was left standing there, staring blankly.
Then, Gu Fanyan entered the hotel, and Sister Li immediately came to greet her and respectfully invited her to a room.
“Miss Gu,” Sister Li said, “I’ve already found out that Yun Suiwan stayed in the hotel room next door with a man last night until the afternoon before coming out.”
Gu Fanyan pursed her lips tightly. Needless to say, that man must be Lu Dongjue.
"You said last time you had a way to ruin Yun Suiwan's reputation, tell me about it," Gu Fanyan said.
Sister Li said she had a solution, and only then did Gu Fanyan agree to cooperate with her.
"Miss Gu, you don't know, this woman is now a sensation online because she helped Lei Bo and his mother!"
Sister Li revealed a sinister sneer, "In the eyes of netizens, she is simply an angel."
"But if we turn things around, she'll become a pariah, hated by everyone."
Gu Fanyan asked, "What do you plan to do?"
Sister Li replied, "I want Lei Bo's mother to stand up and accuse her, to expose her true colors..."
Soon, Sister Li sent someone to fetch Lei Bo's mother.
"Lei Bo's mom, shouldn't you pay this back?" Without saying a word, Sister Li placed an IOU in front of her.
Lei Bo's mother was stunned. This was an IOU that her husband had signed, but after her husband passed away, all the debts had been settled in the presence of the local elders!
"Sister Li, my husband's debts have all been settled, so why is the IOU still with you?" she asked, puzzled.
"I can have as many IOUs like these as I want!" Sister Li sneered arrogantly. "Not only will they have your husband's signature, but your son's signature too..."
Lei Bo's mother trembled with horror.
She understood; the IOU was forged.
But the forgery is so realistic that it could be used to take a lawsuit.
Her husband's debts can be settled.
What about her son?
Once Lei Bo comes of age, Sister Li will have many more ways to make things difficult for him!
“Lei Bo’s mother, your and your son’s roots are here. That woman named Yun Suiwan can’t help you at all,” Sister Li said. “But if you listen to me, I can give you another five-story building in your husband’s family so you can open a hotel.”
“As Lei Bo grows up, there will only be more and more places where he needs to spend money.”
Lei Bo's mother's eyes flickered, "What do you want me to do..."
“It’s simple,” Sister Li replied, “I want you to ruin Yun Suiwan’s reputation.”
...
Yun Suiwan returned to Lei Bo's hotel and stayed there.
In the evening, Lei Bo's mother found her and said, "Miss Yun, Sister Li just sent a middleman over and said she promised to apologize to me."
Yun Suiwan was somewhat surprised, "How is she going to apologize to you?"
"She said she would go to her door in person, and she was bringing along the group of women who always followed her."
“However…” Lei Bo’s mother’s eyes darted away.
"But what?" Yun Suiwan asked.
"The middleman said that Sister Li is quite influential on the island. She gives me face, so I have to give her face too."
“She asked me to host a banquet and asked you to be a witness,” Lei Bo’s mother said.
Yun Suiwan nodded, "No problem, do as she says."
"Thank you, Miss Yun." Lei Bo's mother gave her a grateful look, then turned and left.
Immediately afterwards, Da Wen and Xiao Wu came out of the room.
“Miss, something’s fishy about this,” Da Wen said.
"Miss, why don't we grab that Sister Li, give her a good beating, and make her kneel down and apologize to Lei Bo and his mother?" Xiao Wu suggested.
Yun Suiwan didn't care. "Let her make a fuss. What waves can she possibly stir up?"
At eight o'clock in the evening, Lei Bo's mother set up a lavish banquet in the courtyard of the hotel.
She not only invited Yun Suiwan down, but also other passengers to witness the event.
Yun Suiwan smiled and said, "You think there aren't enough people? I can find you even more."
"Xiao Wu, prop up your phone."
"live streaming."
Lei Bo's mother was setting the table when she heard this, and her hand trembled slightly.
Whether this matter can be resolved completely depends on tonight.
"It's so lively, aren't you going to invite me to join in?" At this moment, Huo Beichen strolled into the courtyard uninvited.
Just as Yun Suiwan was about to say that he wasn't welcome, he walked up to her, leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I saw it. Lu Dongjue and Gu Fanyan are together."
Yun Suiwan secretly tugged at the hem of her clothes.
"Don't you want Lu Dongjue to know that you're doing just as well without him?" Huo Beichen's voice was full of seduction.
As they were talking, two familiar figures appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
It was Lu Dongjue and Gu Fanyan.
Yun Suiwan's gaze couldn't help but fall on Lu Dongjue's face.
She wanted to see some traces left from last night on his face.
However, no.
His expression was gentle, with a smile playing on his lips... but all of this was when he was facing Gu Fanyan.
His face was so familiar to her; just last night he was right next to her, at the closest distance.
His face was so unfamiliar to her.
His gentleness could also be readily shared with other women.
Her heart felt as if it were being squeezed and torn apart by several hands at the same time.
But her face remained calm.
She was unwilling to show even the slightest sign of caring.
That wouldn't earn him any pity; it would only make him a laughingstock and someone to look down on.
