Chapter 182

“You’re Gao Ruomin?” Gu Yuanchuan looked at Gao Ruomin for a long time, but he still didn’t recognize her. He said awkwardly, “I really couldn’t recognize you.”

Gao Ruomin wasn’t angry at all. She was already dozens of years old, yet she still used a coquettish tone to say, “Old Gu, you really know how to joke. You mean that I was prettier than before, right? You still beating around the bush, just like before!”

Gu Yuanchuan had never seen someone like Gao Ruomin. Gao Ruomin was not young anymore, yet she still acted like a flirtatious fool.

Gu Yuanchuan was even more embarrassed. He didn’t expect Gao Ruomin to be so old and still be as inconsiderate as before. Back then, because of Gao Ruomin’s matter, his wife, Liu Min, had many conflicts with him. He did not expect to meet Gao Ruomin today.

Mrs. Gu was extremely angry. Gu Qingchen had never seen her mother have such an angry expression before.

“Yo, Old Gu, this is your daughter, right? She doesn’t look like you. I really can’t tell that she’s your daughter.”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Gao Ruomin continued to speak. However, the words she said were not pleasant to hear. She said Gu Qingchen did not look like Gu Yuanchuan in front of Mrs. Gu. It would not be a big deal if someone else commented on her daughter’s look. However, when Gao Ruomin said this, Mrs. Gu felt that her words had a hidden meaning.

Mrs. Gu was furious. What did Gao Ruomin mean by saying that her daughter did not look like Gu Yuanchuan? Wasn’t she implying that she had cheated on Gu Yuanchuan!

Mrs. Gu was a gentle person. She was furious, but because of her pride, she could not argue with Gao Ruomin.

However, Gu Qingchen did not care about that. It was not easy for her to have her parents back, and she would not let Gao Ruomin mock her parents.

“Auntie, people with eyes can tell whether I look like my father or not. But it’s hard to say whether you look like your parents or not. Hehe, let’s not talk about your parents. Even if you take out your ID card now, no one will think that you look the same as the photo on your ID card, right? The plastic surgery technology in the neighboring country is not bad, but your nose seems to be a little deformed. Your face is not wrinkled at all, but the wrinkles on your neck are hideous! Why don’t you go to the neighboring country and grind the old skin on your neck? Otherwise, people will think that your head and body are not the same. It’s quite scary. Of course, I see that your eyesight is not very good. You can go laser your eyes to get a better vision. Otherwise, you will just make a fool of yourself. People who don’t know will think you’re Old and have blurred eyes.”

Gu Qingchen didn’t pause in her speech. Her tone was calm, but every word was like a sharp knife, cutting Gao Ruomin’s heart.

Mrs. Gu was stunned when she heard that. When she came to her senses, she almost clapped for her daughter!

“Ruomin, you should take care of your eyes. You have to go to the hospital and get a checkup.” Mrs. Gu said earnestly as she added a knife to Gao Ruomin’s heart.

Gao Ruomin’s expression was very stiff and looked a little ferocious. It was obvious that it was a side effect of plastic surgery.

Gu Yuanchuan knew that his wife had a thorn in her heart, so he pretended not to hear anything and acquiesced to his wife and daughter’s actions.

Gao Ruomin was extremely angry. She took a few deep breaths and sneered. Her tone was contemptuous, “Yo, Liu Min, your daughter is so sharp-tongued, and she really doesn’t know how to be polite. She should be in high school now, right? The overall quality of the messy school nowadays is inferior, and they fail to teach students proper manners. But my son is very polite because he’s studying at Provincial No. 1 High School, a key high school. What kind of school is your daughter studying at? It can’t be that kind of low-class high school, right?”

Earlier, Gao Ruomin had mocked that Mrs. Gu was not good enough for Gu Yuanchuan. Now, she was comparing her son with Gu Qingchen. However, Mrs. Gu was not afraid at all. On the contrary, she was full of confidence and full of pride in her daughter.

“Provincial No. 1 High School? My daughter doesn’t want to attend that school, and she’s now studying at Hongfeng Elite School.”

What?

Hongfeng Elite School?

Gao Ruomin was dumbfounded. Everyone knew what kind of school Hongfeng Elite School was.

Suddenly, Gao Ruomin felt ashamed and indignant. She thought she could show off in front of Liu Min, but in the end, she was roasted.

Therefore, she found an excuse and left dejectedly.

Mrs. Gu suddenly felt that she had vented her anger. After being suppressed by Gao Ruomin for so many years, she did not expect to see Gao Ruomin’s expression for the first time today.

This was all thanks to her daughter. Because Gu Qingchen was so outstanding, she could stand up straight in front of Gao Ruomin and vent her anger.

After dinner, Mrs. Gu reluctantly said goodbye to Gu Qingchen. Gu Qingchen had basically settled the matters of the jade shop. With Xiang Yang and her father around, she was very relieved.

When she returned to Rong Yu’s place at night, she found a few more people in the courtyard. They were tall, strong, covered in dirt, and looked a little disheveled.

She remembered that Rong Yu had said he would give her a surprise tonight during lunch. Could it be… that the surprise was these people?

“You’re back.” Rong Yu’s unique voice sounded behind Gu Qingchen. Gu Qingchen subconsciously turned around.

“Yes. They are…” Gu Qingchen pointed at the few men. They all had the foreigner’s look. Looking at their figures, they looked a little familiar.

Rong Yu smiled slightly, “They are for you.”

“This is the… surprise that you said?” Gu Qingchen pointed at those people. Rong Yu nodded.

“Don’t you find them familiar?” Rong Yu pushed the wheelchair and walked closer to those people, stopping the wheelchair.

Gu Qingchen also followed Rong Yu. She did find them familiar, but after Rong Yu said it, she found it even more familiar.

It was not their looks but their figures.

After a while, Gu Qingchen’s eyes widened. She looked at Rong Yu in surprise and said with a hint of doubt, “Are they the mercenaries chasing us?”

Rong Yu beckoned Gu Qingchen with his finger. Gu Qingchen lowered her body and moved closer to Rong Yu, thinking Rong Yu had something to say.

However, a chill came from her forehead. Gu Qingchen was stunned, and she subconsciously touched her forehead with one hand in shock.

Was she hallucinating just now? Did Rong Yu just kiss her forehead?

This was unbelievable.

Seeing Gu Qingchen standing in a daze with a cute expression, Rong Yu’s eyes flashed with a hint of slyness. “This is a reward for guessing the correct answer. Why? You want more?”

Rong Yu slightly raised his pitch, causing people to daydream. It was as if the words of a lover were whispering in their ears.

Gu Qingchen hurriedly stood up in shock and subconsciously stole a glance at those mercenaries. Seeing that they were all lowering their heads and not looking over, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Kissing her in front of so many people was not something that Rong Yu would do. What was wrong with Rong Yu?
