Chapter 30: Sowing Dissension
The cake prepared for Yun Ran was finally eaten by Gu He. Looking at Gu He's distorted face, Qin Ruo finally calmed down for a while and stopped biting Yun Ran in an attempt to get back at him.
She knew very well what ingredients were added to the cake. She was afraid that Gu He would get an upset stomach, so she took a deep breath, walked forward, and made an excuse to help him to the bathroom.
Yun Ran sneered and didn't care about what these two people were doing.
He looked away, picked up the cake box, and threw it into the trash can along with the remaining cake.
Qin Ruo and Yun Ran "reconciled", and Gu He finally felt relieved. Although he had eaten the most disgusting cake he had ever tasted in his life, and his mouth was still filled with that indescribable nauseating taste, he felt relieved.
There was no need to be stiff with Qin Ruo anymore. He smiled more often and rarely insisted on sending Yun Ran home.
"It's okay, Brother He." Qin Ruo stood at the elevator entrance and said sympathetically, "I forgot you were going to send Sister Ranran off. I'm not used to it yet."
"It's my fault too. I forgot about Uncle Zhong's leave. I'll ask Dad to arrange a temporary driver for me tomorrow."
"Sister Ranran is your girlfriend. It's more important to send her off. I can just take a taxi. Don't worry about me."
The words sounded particularly pitiful. Yun Ran watched with her bag in her hand and her arms folded, without interrupting.
Gu He quickly began to waver, looking at Qin Ruo, then turning to look at Yun Ran: "How about we go together? I'll take you back first, and then I'll take Ruo Ruo back."
"Really!" Qin Ruo said before Yun Ran could answer, "We have a small gathering today, and we're running out of time. You can just send Sister Ran Ran off directly. But remember to come over later. We've already made an appointment, and everyone's waiting for you."
After he finished speaking, he realized something and looked at Yun Ran exaggeratedly: "Look at my memory, I even forgot to ask Sister Ran Ran, are you coming? You are all friends that Brother He and I grew up with. We will get together when we are free. Sister used to go too..."
"Ah, I said the wrong thing again! Sister Ranran, don't worry, although they have a good relationship with you, they won't exclude you because of this. After all, you are Brother He's girlfriend. For Brother He's sake, they will all welcome you."
This passage is full of loopholes, but it contains a lot of information.
He tried to sow discord and reminded Yun Ran that she was just a substitute who was not recognized by Gu He's circle and was no match for Qin Qing. Even to attend a private gathering, she had to rely on Gu He's face to get in.
She couldn't help but laugh out loud. If she wasn't Qin Qing, she might have really been inspired by these seemingly plausible words.
Unfortunately, that group of people were mostly the likes of Wei Luo. She had occasionally participated in the past, but it was only to save face for Gu He and the Qin family and maintain superficial harmony.
Her true friends would not bother to hang out with Qin Ruo.
"No, I'm not used to it." Yun Ran didn't have the time to deal with those second-generation people, so he simply fulfilled Qin Ruo's wish. "It's just right that you two want to go, so why bother? Just go together."
"As for me... I called a taxi and will be here soon."
Gu He felt a little apologetic, but since Yun Ran had already called a taxi, it would indeed be more convenient to go with Qin Ruo.
After thinking about it, he nodded: "Okay, then be careful on the road and send me a message when you arrive."
"Okay." Yun Ran smiled and watched them get on the elevator together.
Of course, there was no time to call a car.
Gu He picked her up at Yujingyuan this morning. Since the car didn't come to the company, she really had to find another way.
But it was still early, so she looked at the message on her phone and decided to go meet someone first.
