Chapter 38 Are you Mr. Gu's woman?
Chapter 38 Are you Mr. Gu's woman?
Su Yiran, who was in the cubicle, listened to their conversation. She could hear Liu Jiaojiao's words even through the wall, and her brows furrowed.
The curly-haired woman, puzzled, asked, "What's wrong? She's two-faced, isn't she nice to you?"
This is common in their circle.
In order to gain a foothold in a wealthy family, it's enough to put on a show and let your husband know that you are a virtuous wife and loving mother. Who would open their heart to someone who is not related to you by blood?
"If she weren't useful, would she have entered the Liu family?"
Liu Jiaojiao looked at herself with disdain, touching up her makeup in front of the mirror, with no intention of continuing to speak.
The curly-haired woman, hearing her words, knew the topic was over and smiled as she took out a brand new lipstick from her bag. "Jiaojiao, this is a new style. I fought for ages to get it. I think the color suits you. Try it on."
Liu Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she saw the lipstick being handed to her, but her expression remained unchanged.
She had been eyeing this one for a long time, but it sold out as soon as it went on sale. She used her connections, but still couldn't get one.
Liu Jiaojiao took the lipstick. "Let's go, Brother Chengjing and the others are still waiting for us in the private room."
After the two women touched up their makeup and left the restroom, Su Yiran came out of the stall, watched their backs as they walked away, washed her hands, and bumped into a woman coming from the opposite direction.
"SORRY!"
After apologizing, the other person went into the restroom.
Foreign women are really strong; the impact was painful. Su Yiran rubbed her arm to ease the pain.
Meng Ran waved to her as she returned and said with a smile, "I was worried something had happened to you since you were gone for so long. After all, with such a pretty face, you must have many suitors. But I admire Mr. Gu. If I were a man, I wouldn't want my wife to dress up so nicely and go out. It would attract unwanted attention."
"Thank goodness you're not a man!"
Su Yiran sat down, her mind filled with what she had overheard Liu Jiaojiao saying in the restroom. She felt a tightness in her chest and a sense of unease.
Meng Ran said, "Guess who I just saw?"
"Liu Jiaojiao".
Su Yiran blurted it out.
"Did you see it too?"
Meng Ran exclaimed, pointing to the private room inside, "That couple is really high-profile. They were just kicked out of Shengleweiga Manor yesterday, and today they've already invited a bunch of their cronies out together. They're really shameless."
Su Yiran suddenly asked, "Does seeing this make you feel particularly uncomfortable?"
"What?" Meng Ran was stunned, then nodded. "It really is not pleasant. I wish I could tear their fake faces to shreds."
"What a coincidence, so am I."
Before she could finish speaking, Su Yiran had already rolled up her sleeves, stood up, and rushed into the private room.
"Oh no, sis! Are you serious?!"
Meng Ran was startled by Su Yiran's reaction and quickly followed!
The door to the private room was opened, breaking the lively atmosphere inside, and everyone's eyes fell on the woman who appeared at the door.
A blond man, oblivious to the situation and not recognizing Su Yiran, started jeering, "Whose little sister is this? Come here to your brother, he has something for you..."
Before he could utter the word "fine wine," a slap landed hard on Liu Jiaojiao, leaving him speechless with fright.
Su Yiran's appearance was clearly unexpected by Liu Jiaojiao, who was caught off guard.
"Su Yiran, are you sick in the head?!"
Gu Chengjing was the first to come to his senses and wanted to protect Liu Jiaojiao behind him.
Su Yiran kicked the person away, glancing at him disdainfully, "Yes, I am indeed sick. What, are you going to argue with a lunatic?"
"you……"
Gu Chengjing clutched his abdomen in pain.
Ignoring Gu Chengjing, Su Yiran turned her gaze back to Liu Jiaojiao. One slap wasn't enough, so she reached out and slapped her several more times.
She was beaten until her face was swollen.
“Zhu…Yu…Ran, you…”
Su Yiran leaned down, listening to her indistinct words, and curled her lips into a smile, lifting her chin with her fingertips, "Are you curious why I hit you?"
Liu Jiaojiao felt Su Yiran's touch and was so frightened that she backed away repeatedly.
Su Yiran grabbed her hair and said, "You have a foul mouth. You better behave yourself in the future, or I'll beat you every time I see you, until you learn your lesson."
Ever since her mother married into the Liu family, she has never felt maternal love. Her mother poured all her love into Liu Jiaojiao, so what right does she have to criticize her!
Liu Jiaojiao was so scared that she trembled all over.
Su Yiran let go, looked up and her gaze fell on the blond man who had been egging her on. She clapped her hands, opened a bottle of baijiu, found a wine glass, poured it full, and handed it over, saying, "Brother, let me treat you to a drink."
Having witnessed Su Yiran's abilities, the blond man glanced at the wine glass in front of him and swallowed hard. "I...I was blind, I..."
"Is the brother refusing to give his sister face?"
Su Yiran leaned forward, a slight smile playing on her lips, but her face held no genuine joy. She shoved the wine glass directly into the man's face. "Then my little sister will be heartbroken. You saw it yourself just now. Who knows what I might do if I'm unhappy..."
"I'll drink it, I'll drink it."
The blond man quickly grabbed the glass and forced himself to drink it down.
Baijin Baijiu has an extremely high alcohol content; after just one glass, your face will turn red.
"Brother is awesome."
Su Yiran took the empty glass and, under everyone's gaze, refilled it to a full glass. Before she could even approach, the blond man recoiled in fright, saying, "I really can't drink anymore. Drinking any more will kill someone..."
"You can't drink, yet you ordered so much alcohol?"
Su Yiran approached step by step, "Little sister has a bad memory, may I ask your brother a question? What did you call me when you came in?"
The blond man was terribly flustered. "I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous, I..."
Su Yiran pressed coldly, "So what exactly did you call me?"
“My… sister…”
The man answered with his eyes closed.
"Ok?"
Su Yiran's tone became even colder.
The blond man's heart was pounding, and he forced himself to say, "My little sister..."
"Oh I got it."
Su Yiran nodded, "But I dislike the word 'delicate' the most, so brother must apologize."
A full glass of baijiu appeared in front of the man. Su Yiran kindly reminded him, "Brother, are you scared? Don't worry, it's just two glasses of baijiu, not a lethal dose."
The two remained locked in a stalemate, with the blond man hesitant to make any rash moves.
Gu Chengjing recovered his senses and said coldly, "Su Yiran is nothing more than a cheap slut raised by my uncle. She'll be dumped sooner or later, and then you'll be sorry."
"You want to make me look bad?" Su Yiran chuckled. "Young Master Gu, all you do is threaten women. You're really not a man. Looks like I didn't kick you hard enough. You never learn!"
"you……"
Gu Chengjing was afraid she would come and hit him, so he felt guilty and dared not speak.
The blond man then realized, "You're Mr. Gu's woman?"
