“You don’t know?” Tang Shijun crossed his arms and looked at the others. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask them.”
Gu Jinyue did not believe it. She was indeed banned from the Lushi auction house, but she did not see any sign at all.
Moreover, she believed that the Lushi Auction House would definitely withdraw the unfair treatment they had given her after learning that her uncle had advanced to the Saint Stage. How could they possibly put up such a sign?
Tang Shijun must have deliberately angered her.
She sneered and turned to look at Xiao Wenfei.
Xiao Wenfei’s gaze was somewhat evasive.
Gu Jinyue suddenly had an ominous premonition, but she still did not believe it. “Wenfei, is she lying?”
…..
Xiao Wenfei didn’t dare to speak the truth, “Jinyue, she… she is…”
“I want to hear the truth!”
Looking at Gu Jinyue’s murderous gaze, Xiao Wenfei shivered and said, “Yes, there is a plaque, but they will definitely remove it.”
“In other words, there really is one?” Gu Jinyue gritted her teeth.
Xiao Wenfei bit the bullet and nodded.
“Gu Qingluan! It must be Gu Qingluan’s doing!” At this moment, Gu Jinyue wished she could tear Gu Qingluan apart with her hands. Anger filled her heart.
“Gu Qingluan is the eldest daughter of the Gu family’s main branch. It’s important to maintain a close relationship with the family’s head. Otherwise, the Lushi Auction House wouldn’t have treated you with such disrespect. Gu Jinyue, I suggest you consider how to please Gu Qingluan! By the way, this hairpin set looks quite nice. If you’re interested, I can be generous and let you have it,” Tang Shijun sneered, relishing the moment.
She deliberately mentioned that news of Gu Jinyue and Gu Qingluan’s conflict at the Lushi Auction House yesterday had already spread. Even those who hadn’t witnessed it firsthand had heard about it. Tang Shijun secretly regretted not witnessing Gu Jinyue being chased out herself.
“Shut up! Tang Shijun! Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like this!” Gu Jinyue was so angry that she raised her hand in an attempt to slap Tang Shijun in the face.
Cries of surprise rang out from all around.
Tang Shijun was already prepared and quickly retreated.
However, someone behind her suddenly pushed her, causing her to fall forward.
“Oh no!”
Tang Shijun inwardly exclaimed and instinctively closed her eyes. Instead of the expected pain, she heard a scream from ahead.
She felt herself being embraced in a soft and fragrant embrace. Surprised, she opened her eyes and met a face so enchanting that it was intoxicating.
“Gu Qingluan! Let go of me!”
A sharp shout echoed.
The beautiful woman lightly parted her rosy lips, her voice pure yet seductive, “Miss Tang, please stand up.”
Feeling the gentle force around her waist loosen, Tang Shijun was pushed aside by a mild strength.
“Miss, are you alright?” the maid, Xiaotao asked nervously.
Tang Shijun instinctively shook her head, her gaze fixed on the gorgeous woman who suddenly appeared before her.
Was she Gu Qingluan?
Was she really Gu Qingluan?
She had changed so much compared to before!
Others also looked at the young woman who had suddenly appeared in astonishment, unable to believe that she was the former useless young lady of the Gu family.
Gu Qingluan had arrived in the capital a few days ago, but her presence had remained relatively unknown. Therefore, when these n.o.ble ladies, who had only heard rumors about her, finally caught sight of her, they were taken aback.
The Gu Qingluan they remembered was a girl who had endured hunger and cold within the Gu family, suffering from abuse since childhood. Her complexion was lackl.u.s.ter, and despite her potential beauty, she seemed to have lost some of her radiance. In addition, her low self-esteem had caused her to keep her head down, making her appear unremarkable.
But the current Gu Qingluan exuded confidence and composure with every smile and frown.
Her stunning and captivating face seemed to be flawlessly crafted, neither lacking nor excessive. Calling her the most beautiful woman wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
No wonder Gu Jinyue was so eager to suppress her as soon as she returned!
Anyone who saw such breathtaking beauty would feel a sense of crisis!
