Chapter 43 This is the delay
Gu Miaomiao stared at the paper, her fingertips feeling cold.
The next second, she bent down to pick it up, and tore the white paper into pieces, with the crumbs scattered all over the floor.
Ask her to apologize to Lin Qing? Dream on!
His fist hit the door panel, and his knuckles turned white.
The anger in my chest kept boiling.
Do these people really think she is a soft persimmon?
Her eyes swept over the bed, the bedding was disheveled and the air was filled with the smell of humiliation, but she gritted her teeth and stood straight, refusing to give in.
His eyes dropped to the windowsill, his mind racing to figure out an escape route.
Time is running out, and every minute of delay increases the danger.
If you fall today, you will never have a chance to get back on your feet!
Gu Miaomiao opened the wardrobe and took out a spare dress to put on.
Then he tied a knot with the bed sheet, tied a knot around his waist, and used the remaining part to make a rope to hang it on his shoulders.
The woman in the mirror was pale, with blood oozing from the corners of her lips, but she was still dazzlingly beautiful.
This is the girl who deserves to be called the eldest daughter of the Gu family, not a plaything to be slaughtered by others!
I opened the window and a cold wind blew in my face.
He quickly tied the bed sheet, took two steps to the window sill, slid down the second-floor balcony without hesitation, and then used the momentum to jump onto the lawn.
His ankle was almost broken, but he landed safely.
The bodyguards in the hospital noticed something unusual and shouted!
"Ms. Gu! Please go back!"
No matter who he is, she now has only one goal, rush out and take back everything that belongs to her!
She turned around and ran towards the basement, watching the bodyguard running towards her not far away.
Gu Miaomiao stepped on the accelerator and did a drift. The roar of the engine rang in her ears, but her figure was left behind.
When we arrived at the press conference, the crowd was bustling and the lights were bright, with all media outlets pointing their cameras at the center of the red carpet.
And that position was currently occupied by Lin Qing, who was chatting and laughing with Jiang Yanbai and Wang Jingchi.
But no one noticed the slender figure that quietly appeared at the backstage entrance.
Gu Miaomiao quickly walked across the corridor to the lounge and pushed the door open.
Wu Yiran heard the door open, looked up and saw it was Gu Miaomiao, and immediately stepped forward and grabbed her hand.
"Miss Gu, you are finally here. Look at this dress."
Looking in the direction of her trembling fingers, I saw an exaggerated tear in the hem, obviously someone had cut it on purpose.
After all, Gu Miaomiao had seen big scenes before, and she patted Wu Yiran's cold hand without panic.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Just watch me."
Looking around, a sharp eyebrow razor on the dressing table caught my eye.
Gu Miaomiao held the knife in her palm, squatted down, and used the blade to cut the fabric cleanly along the exposed area.
There was a slight tearing sound, and the broken end actually highlighted the slender and graceful legs, which was a hundred times bolder and more eye-catching than the original design!
Wu Yiran stared blankly with his eyes wide open, unwilling to look away, and asked in a low voice.
"Is this really okay? Isn't it too..."
"Don't worry, this is a limited edition, high-end model. It's always been about minimalism and luxury, and now it's just a step ahead of the trend. Not only won't it embarrass you, but it'll also make all the paparazzi shut up and wait for tomorrow's headlines."
His tone was calm and composed, but Wu remained frozen in place, his mouth open but unable to utter a single word.
Gu Miaomiao's eyes were calm.
"Where's the necklace?"
Wu Yiran pointed to the dressing table next to her.
"Here. I remember what you told me to do. I kept a close eye on it the whole time, and no one touched it."
Gu Miaomiao nodded slightly.
At this moment, the host's rhythmic voice could be faintly heard outside, and it was obvious that the press conference was about to begin.
Gu Miaomiao picked up the angel wing necklace and matching earrings and put them on Wu Yiran with swift movements.
The necklace was dazzling and the earrings were swaying, setting off Wu Yiran's frightened face, creating a kind of broken and stunning beauty.
A look of admiration flashed across Gu Miaomiao's eyes.
"Get ready for your highlight moment."
Wu Yiran took a deep breath and finally a grateful smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you, Miss Gu."
Gu Miaomiao watched Wu Yiran adjust his state and walk slowly towards the entrance of the T-stage, and the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
Very good, Wu still did not disappoint her.
Then, Gu Miaomiao adjusted her dress, held her head high, and walked towards the center of the star-studded venue.
Her high heels made crisp sounds as they stepped on the smooth floor.
Before he even got close, he heard Lin Qing's triumphant yet humble voice.
"Miss Gu is always like this, never considering herself first. Sigh, I didn't expect that for such a grand occasion today, she would just say she couldn't come, without even saying hello..."
Lin Qing paused, his tone filled with hypocritical regret, then turned to Jiang Yanbai and Wang Jingchi beside him, his voice rising a few notches.
"Unlike me, although I don't have the qualifications to attend such an occasion, but President Jiang and President Wang think highly of me, so I naturally have to do my best and not let them down..."
Before Lin Qing finished her words, a clear female voice suddenly interrupted her performance.
"Even though you knew you weren't qualified to come, you still managed to squeeze in by any means necessary. Lin Qing, I'm afraid this kind of behavior is even more despicable, isn't it?"
The sound was not loud, but it was penetrating and instantly quieted the noisy atmosphere.
The smile on Lin Qing's face froze. He turned around suddenly and saw Gu Miaomiao walking towards him. His pupils suddenly shrank.
Jiang Yanbai's eyes suddenly darkened, and the aura around him instantly became cold and stern.
Why is she here? Shouldn't she be locked up in the house?
On the contrary, Wang Jingchi pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, a smile of interest appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Gu Miaomiao calmly.
"I knew Miss Gu wouldn't miss it. But, President Jiang just said that you were delayed by something important. What could have happened that almost made Miss Gu miss such an occasion?"
Wang Jingchi's sharp gaze naturally fell on the new scratches on Gu Miaomiao's arm that was vaguely exposed under the sleeve of her dress.
Gu Miaomiao pretended not to notice his inquiring gaze and ignored Jiang Yanbai's suddenly cold expression.
She faced Wang Jingchi calmly and spoke in a calm tone.
"Boss Jiang asked me to take care of some personal matters, which is why I'm delayed. If Boss Wang really wants to know what it is, why not ask Boss Jiang directly? He should know better."
She kicked the ball lightly back to Jiang Yanbai.
In front of outsiders, Jiang Yanbai still appeared gentle and polite, but the coldness in his eyes was deeper.
He looked at Gu Miaomiao with a concerned tone.
"It's nothing serious, just some trivial matters at home. Miaomiao, you've been delayed for so long because of this. Do you know that you almost missed the most important step?"
Implicit in his words was a reproach to her for being ignorant.
Gu Miaomiao gave Jiang Yanbai a very faint smile, which was somewhat provocative.
"Then President Jiang, please remember this. Next time, don't tell me to do anything before such an important occasion begins."
She was warning him.
