Seeing that Lin Chuxia did not move, Gu Qi continued, "Young Madam, there are no taxis around here. If you don't get in a car, you'll have to walk out."
The An family is so ungrateful. They were the ones begging the young mistress to return to the An family, but now they're treating their own biological daughter like this for some unknown adopted daughter.
well!
If it were anyone else, they would feel extremely guilty and try every means to make amends for their daughter who had been lost for more than ten years and was finally found.
But the An family is different! Instead of taking the broad road paved with flowers, they insist on taking a different path, a winding path full of thorns.
They can't enjoy a good life; they insist on making a mess of things.
When the relationship between Third Master and Young Mistress is exposed in the future, they will have their moment of regret!
Lin Chuxia was unaware of Gu Qi's current state of mind; she was somewhat bewildered.
She couldn't figure out exactly when Gu Yuheng arrived, or how much of what had happened earlier he had seen.
How come this person always manages to catch her making a fool of herself?!
They're like a persistent ghost!
Lin Chuxia got into the car with a hint of resentment and trepidation. When she tried to fasten her seatbelt, she couldn't for some reason.
Uh... my hands are shaking.
Sure enough, a soft rebuke came from beside him, "Useless."
Lin Chuxia could guess, without even looking up, that Gu Yuheng's face was filled with contempt.
She wanted nothing more than to smash the seatbelt in her hand into Gu Yuheng's face, but... she didn't have the guts.
Lin Chuxia dares to argue with everyone and everything, but she dares not argue with Gu Yuheng.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Chuxia suppressed the impulse in her heart, raised her head and smiled brightly at the person beside her, saying, "You don't understand, I just couldn't be bothered to argue with them!"
"I really don't understand. After all, my brain has been well protected since I was a child, and there has never been anything unusual about it."
You're the one who got your head caught in a door!
Lin Chuxia was annoyed, but dared not show it.
“But…” Lin Chuxia turned around, her smile widening, her voice so gentle it seemed like it could melt your heart, “You can’t bite a dog back if it bites you, can you?”
hiss--
Gu Qi, sitting in the driver's seat, couldn't help but gasp.
To dare speak to Third Master like that and still live so freely, I guess in the whole of China, besides the Old Master and the Old Madam, only the Young Madam is worthy of such a place.
Oh, the kitten is stretching out its paw?
Gu Yuheng was not annoyed by Lin Chuxia's words. Instead, he smiled slightly, seemingly in a good mood. He did not refute Lin Chuxia but simply responded with a soft "Mm".
"Third Master, are we still going to the old house?" Gu Jiu asked when the two stopped talking.
Gu Yuheng glanced at Lin Chuxia, who seemed a little restless, and said, "No, let's go to Biyue Huating."
Lin Chuxia knew that Bishui Huating was a courtyard owned by Gu Yuheng in the suburbs.
Thinking of what Gu Yuheng had said when they first met, Lin Chuxia couldn't help but scoff inwardly, "Hmph, a cunning rabbit has three burrows!"
In fact, Lin Chuxia had visited the Gu family's old house once when she first arrived in Jincheng, but she was too tired to pay much attention to the street scene when she went there and back, so she couldn't make contact with it for a while.
Gu Yuheng could tell what Lin Chuxia was thinking with just a glance. "If you keep cursing me in your heart, you can forget about getting your allowance next month."
"you……"
That bastard!!!
He would use this tactic to threaten her!
What Lin Chuxia didn't know was that Gu Yuheng didn't like using this method to threaten her. The reason he frequently used this method was simply because it was the most effective for Lin Chuxia.
Lin Chuxia has two regrettable things in her life.
Firstly, she agreed to get a marriage certificate with Gu Yuheng at a very young age, thus marrying herself off.
Secondly, when Gu Yuheng said he wanted to "take care" of her, she was foolishly thinking she had gotten a great deal, and happily nodded while handing over all her bank cards.
Lin Chuxia still remembered the reason Gu Yuheng had asked her to hand over her bank card—
"You think I'd care about this little bit of money?"
"I just don't want people to say that I, a grown man, have to make my wife rack her brains every day to find ways to earn money. If word gets out, what will people think of me?"
"You want to tinker with your stuff? Fine. But all your expenses will have to be paid for with my money."
In response, Lin Chuxia questioned, "What about my own money?"
Gu Yuheng replied matter-of-factly, "I'll keep it for you, and you won't touch a penny of it. When you need it, I'll give it back to you with interest."
Lin Chuxia thought about it and felt that she wouldn't lose out; on the contrary, she seemed to be making a profit. Someone was giving her money to spend for free. When she needed money, she could not only get her principal back but also receive a higher return than the market interest rate promised by Gu Yuheng. Why not do it?
It has to be said that Gu Yuheng painted a huge pie for Lin Chuxia, and this pie was extremely tempting.
So, Lin Chuxia happily agreed to all of Gu Yuheng's conditions almost without thinking. Not only did she foolishly hand over all her bank cards, but she also signed her name without even carefully reading the contract, as if she was afraid that Gu Yuheng would go back on his word!
Lin Chuxia was overjoyed back then, and now she regrets it just as much!
I hate myself so much I wish I could go back to that time and slap myself a few times!
She must have been out of her mind to do something so stupid!
Faced with Gu Yuheng's threats, Lin Chuxia was annoyed, but there was nothing she could do.
Sigh, what can I do? I was so stupid back then!
Ptooey!
She's not brain-dead!
It's clearly the enemy who's too cunning!
Pulling herself out of her thoughts, Lin Chuxia tried to change the subject. Pretending nothing had happened, she looked curious and eager to know, "By the way, why did An Mingzhu and Chu Yiyi act like they'd seen a ghost... uh, like you were important people, as soon as they saw you they ran away feeling ashamed?"
Lin Chuxia was about to say she had seen a ghost, but when she met Gu Yuheng's deep gaze, she almost bit her tongue off!
"I don't know, maybe they had something urgent to attend to and left." Gu Yuheng was quite pleased with Lin Chuxia's insincere flattery. "Didn't you say that they felt ashamed? They're not qualified to see me."
"Hehe!" Lin Chuxia chuckled dryly.
Lin Chuxia cursed inwardly: "Pah! This shameless narcissist!"
Actually, if someone else had said those words, they would have been considered arrogant, conceited, and ignorant of their own limitations.
However, these words came from Gu Yuheng's mouth. Who is Gu Yuheng? Gu Yuheng is the kind of man whose sneeze can make Jincheng tremble!
As for An Mingzhu and her group, they were indeed not qualified to have Gu Yuheng meet them in person.
Therefore, it is reasonable for him to say this, and it gives people the feeling that this is the truth, without any sense of incongruity.
"Does the young mistress want to know why the An family's daughter turns deathly pale as soon as she sees the Third Master?" Gu Qi suddenly interjected from the driver's seat.
