Chapter 155: Give Up Purchasing

Translator: _Min_

Jiang Yue had actually woken up much earlier but kept her eyes closed, curious to see what Song Ling would do. She hadnt expected that he would show her no concern and even intend to leave.

Having no other choice, she opened her eyes and spoke, trying to retain Song Ling. However, he left anyway.

Jiang Yue sighed deeply and picked up her phone to call Jiang Lin. Sobbing, she said, Aunt, 1 asked Song Ling to stay with me, but he didnt agree and left. His att.i.tude towards me has changed so much; its completely different from before. Does he not like me anymore? Can I still marry him and become the lady of the Song family?

Jiang Lin responded flatly, Of course.

Stunned, Jiang Yue asked, Really?

Jiang Lin affirmed, Everything is going as Ive envisioned. Pictures of you and Song Ling embracing have already been released by the media, and many people online believe it. Whether or not he stays doesnt matter.

You have nothing to worry about; just wait patiently, and youll surely become Mrs. Song.

Rea.s.sured by Jiang Lins promise, Jiang Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

She couldnt help but fantasize about how many people would envy her once she became Mrs. Song.

And the first thing shed do after that would be to deal with Gu Dai. It was all Gu Dais fault for spoiling her plans; otherwise, she wouldve already married Song Ling!

However, thinking about Song Lings recent change in att.i.tude toward her, she couldnt help but ask, Ever since he saw the video, Brother Song Lings att.i.tude towards me isnt as good as before. Will this affect my plans to marry him?

No, Jiang Lin chuckled coldly, Song Ling used to like you so much, how could he just stop liking you? Based on my understanding of men, hes just too proud to admit it for now. Once the situation blows over, hell definitely like you again.

At that moment, Jiang Yue felt entirely relieved. However, the thought of Gu Dai still left a lingering bitterness in her heart. She wished she could beat her up right now.

Unaware of Jiang Yues thoughts, Gu Dai wouldnt have cared even if she knew. After all, she felt especially good at the moment, looking at Gu Zhi who was standing in front of her.

The fantasies in Jiang Yues mind could only exist in her imagination and had no impact on her.

Heeding the previous advice from Gu Ming, Gu Zhi suppressed her irritation, keeping her eyes obediently lowered. She asked, Is there anything I need to do?

Gu Dai rested her chin on her hand and smiled, Ive been working all day and Im a bit tired. Id like to soak my feet. Could you prepare some water for me?

Gu Zhi furrowed her brow in disbelief, You want me to bring water for you?

Gu Dai nodded, then countered, Didnt you know thats what you signed up for?

Of course, Gu Zhi knew, but imagining it and facing the reality were two different things.

Gu Dai then said, If youre not willing, you can go back home now.

A glimmer of joy appeared on Gu Zhis face.

Gu Dai leisurely added, At that time, Ill arrange for someone to send you to the countryside. If youre still not willing, Ill have no choice but to call the police. After all, youve taken so many of my things and havent returned them; there will be consequences.

The color drained from Gu Zhis face, and she reluctantly said, 1 didnt say I wasnt willing.

Gu Zhi took the bucket and headed to the bathroom.

Meng Zhi, who had seen this exchange, asked in amazement, Daidai, youre amazing. How did you manage to make her so obedient?

Gu Dai briefly recounted the mornings events to Meng Zhi.

Meng Zhi became exceedingly angry when he heard the story and pulled out his phone.

Confused, Gu Dai asked, Third Brother, what are you doing?

Fingers rapidly swiping on his phone, Meng Zhi exclaimed, Gu Zhi dared to take your things from three years ago; 111 just buy more for you now and let her watch. Thatll kill her!

Gu Dai sighed in exasperation, Third Brother, youre so childish. Stop buying things for me; youve already bought so much!

Meng Zhi flatly refused, No, I must buy them!

In the end, Meng Zhi didnt make the purchases, as Gu Dai told him that if he insisted on buying, she would be angry and ignore him.

Meng Zhi had no choice but to abandon his plan, although deep inside, he was still plotting ways to gift things to Gu Dai in the future.

Gu Zhi, unable to hear clearly what Gu Dai and Meng Zhi were discussing, could nevertheless hear their laughter and chatter. Her eyes grew increasingly darker, consumed by a jealousy that bordered on madness.

Watching the steaming hot water fill the footbath bucket, a wicked idea suddenly flashed across her mind. Once the bucket was full, a smile crept onto her face. She carefully carried the bucket over to Gu Dai..
