Chapter 193: Gu Wan’s True Colors
Gu Chu shook her head and looked at the coffee shop that her mother had just walked out of. She suddenly saw a familiar figure. It was Director Wang.
Director Wang was the one who supported Gu Wan when she accused her of forging the contract. Gu Chu did not have a good impression of him at all.
So why did they meet in private?
Before she could figure it out, a car slowly stopped in front of them.
The car window slowly rolled down, revealing a smiling face. “Miss Gu.”
Gu Chu blinked and recognized the person. “You are Xiao Liu?”
She had seen him at Feng Corporation before. He was one of Feng Jia’s assistants.
Xiao Liu nodded. “Yes. CEO Feng said that you bought a lot of things and asked me to pick you up.”
Gu Chu wondered how Feng Jia knew that she had bought so many things?
She quickly realized that it was the messages from the credit card company.
Lin Yin nudged her shoulder with her elbow, implying that Feng Jia was doing well.
The corner of Gu Chu’s mouth curved up.
She was that easy to coax.
Before she could figure out what was going on between her mother and Director Wang, it was already Saturday.
The dinner was held at eight o’clock in the evening. Gu Chu arrived at the hotel at seven o’clock.
As soon as she got out of the car, she ran into Gu Wan.
She cursed her bad luck in her heart. Without even looking at her, she walked straight to the door.
However, Gu Wan unexpectedly caught up with her. “Gu Chu.”
Gu Wan pretended not to hear it.
Gu Chu’s high heels clicked on the stone pavement, her eyes looking straight ahead.
Gu Wan chased after her relentlessly. “You’ve really been doing well these days. It’s as if the whole world knows that the Gu Corporation has a new president.”
Gu Chu’s voice was very flat. “Are you here to congratulate me too? I’ll accept it.”
Gu Wan sneered. “Then I wish you a smooth transition to vice president.”
“Thank you.” Gu Chu looked at her playfully. “This matter is decided by the board of directors. So even if someone cries in front of mom, it can’t be changed.”
With that, she quickened her pace.
However, Gu Wan was like a dog that followed her everywhere.
“Do you know why I’ve been going against you since I came back?”
Gu Chu returned her question, “how can we normal people know the thoughts of people like you?”
Gu Wan’s tone was filled with hatred. “Because everything you have now should be mine. You’re a thief who stole my things!”
“Yes, yes, yes, they’re all yours. Remember, you have to take your medication regularly so that you can recover faster. Otherwise, your illness will only get worse.”
After the sarcastic remark, Gu Chu felt that something was off. Gu Wan seemed to be a little different from her usual self. In the past, she knew how to put on an act, so why didn’t she put on an act today?
However, she was too lazy to waste time on her. She had not changed into her gown yet.
Seeing her leave, Gu Wan grabbed her wrist. “Actually, I’m not fighting with you because I like Feng Jia. I just don’t like you, so I’ll take everything you own.”
Her tone was cold.
Gu Chu looked at her. “Why are you being so honest today?”
Gu Wan laughed. “We’ve already shed all pretenses. What’s the point of pretending?”
Gu Chu looked her up and down and shook her hand away. “Really? Then I hope your dream will come true soon.”
Gu Wan gritted her teeth at her back. “Gu Chu, just you wait.”
Gu Chu was not scared. She walked to the front of the door and pushed it open.
The hall had already been set up. The stage, lighting, tables and chairs, flowers, and welcome gifts were all exquisite and beautiful. In another half an hour, the guests would arrive.
All the business partners, family and friends were all here for her.
The party had begun.
Gu Chu was changing into a gown in a hotel room. The stylist was pulling her hair back. She was swiping her phone, and she felt a little uneasy.
She was just thinking about how her mother had secretly met with Director Wang, and then she thought about Gu Wan shedding all pretenses.
There must be something fishy going on.
She looked at her watch and thought of a countermeasure. However, she did not know what cards the other party was playing, so she had no idea what to do to prevent it.
Since that was the case, she might as well fight back.
However, she could still do something.
She called Lin Yu.
Lin Yu quickly answered, “Yeah?”
Gu Chu asked, “Lin Yu, are you here?”
