Chapter 359: That Woman

After entering the karaoke room, Gu Qingjiu felt uneasy all over.

She didn’t know anyone, so there wasn’t anyone for her to chat with.

Those people seemed to be having fun after entering the room. Even the topics they were talking about, Gu Qingjiu didn’t quite understand.

But she didn’t wish to understand either.

Liu Meigui’s gaze was fixed intently upon her.

But she didn’t go up to her to make trouble for her.

Actually, Liu Meigui was still overwhelmed with emotions.

She only managed to come to this gathering after pulling all sorts of connections.

And even then, she was only a random person who couldn’t even get a word in.

Young Master Ye was the person she wished to talk to, but he wouldn’t even give her the chance.

But she hadn’t expected that the younger sister of the man she looked down on, whom she saw earlier during the day, could actually come in such a place!

Moreover, she was an esteemed guest of Young Master Ye.

The crux was that man whom she came with truly had a face so outstanding that it was rare.

Every woman who saw his face would probably feel the urge to scream.

If it weren’t for…

At the thought of this, Liu Meigui bit her lower lip tightly.

Her enchantment with He Niancheng was merely one of shock.

There wasn’t much of a reaction.

Because she was yearning for another person in her heart.

Everyone was having fun at the venue.

Liu Meigui could tell that Gu Qingjiu wasn’t someone simple. If she were to make trouble for her, she would suffer a greater loss if it ended up alarming Young Master Ye.

She had to go back and ask w.a.n.ge. Clearly, the Gu family was only a family from a small city. So, how did she manage to come to Young Master Ye’s dinner?

Not right. She ought to ask about the ident.i.ty of that man who she came along with.

How did Gu Qingjiu hook up with him?

The room was noisy with all sorts of chatter, laughter, and singing, but no one came to ask Gu Qingjiu to sing with them.

Shortly after, the door to the room opened.

Gu Qingjiu saw Huo Yingcheng at the corner of the door waving at her.

She instantly went over. After the door had closed, she saw that He Niancheng and Ye Henyu were done discussing their matter.

Gu Qingjiu walked over and followed next to He Niancheng.

Ye Henyu politely sent them out.

Once they got onto the car, Huo Yingcheng directly asked, “Qingjiu, are you going back with us?”

“Let’s go back.” Gu Qingjiu nodded. “I have no reason to stay here.”

Now that she had seen her sister-in-law and her older brother had gone elsewhere to play, there wasn’t much meaning staying back by herself.

Huo Yingcheng nodded then drove off.

He Niancheng closed his eyes to rest and Gu Qingjiu didn’t disturb him. However, the quietness was a little torturous.

Suddenly, Gu Qingjiu heard Huo Yingcheng ask, “Qingjiu, do you know that older sister of yours in the Yu family?”

Gu Qingjiu widened her eyes and frowned slightly. “What’s the matter, Commander Huo?”

Why did he mention Yu s.h.i.+wei all of a sudden?

“Nothing, I’m merely asking in pa.s.sing.”

Huo Yingcheng didn’t seem like he wished to delve on the topic, but Gu Qingjiu could sense that he was hiding something from her.

After a momentary silence, Gu Qingjiu replied, “I don’t know her.”

How could she not know her? Even in her dreams, she wished she could burn her corpse and scatter the ashes to the winds.

Too bad other than colliding head-on with the Yu s.h.i.+wei, there wasn’t any chance for Gu Qingjiu to cross swords with her.

That woman…

Gripping onto the back of the seat which He Niancheng was lying on, she tightened her grasp.
