Initially imposing, she now stood gaping at Zhuang Nainai.
Zhuang Nainai shook herself awake and waved in the direction of the door. “It’s been so long, Zuo Yiyi!”
This annoying familiar tone…
Zuo Yiyi looked as if she had seen a ghost. She let out a startled reply, “Zhuang Nainai, it is you! Why are you here?”
Zhuang Nainai curled her lips and said, “Take a guess!”
Zuo Yiyi pondered and exclaimed in surprise, “You are Gu Qingyan?!”
“Unfortunately, yes.” Zhuang Nainai shrugged.
Zuo Yiyi wrinkled her brows. What she hated most was Zhuang Nainai’s demeanor. Even though she was a plebeian, she always talked to Zuo Yiyi so casually, without an ounce of respect.
She recomposed her icy cold look and sauntered into the room, placing her Louis Vuitton bag on the table. She sneered with an air of arrogance and disdain. “Zhuang Nainai, why do I have to see you again after five years?”
Five years?
Zhuang Nainai was momentarily stunned.
Those memories were etched deep in her heart. They felt as if they happened only yesterday. These fresh wounds from the past, had they been inflicted five years ago?
Noticing her dispirited expression, Zuo Yiyi felt a little better. She pressed her lips and lifted her chin high. “Zhuang Nainai, you have no shame! If I were you, I would never appear in front of Brother Ting again in my life! Who are you to ask him to marry you? Relying on your near bankrupt Gu Corporation? Or your garbage collector mother? Or… purely by being shameless and clingy?
“If I were you, Zhuang Nainai, I would know my place and retract the marriage promise. Let me tell you, even if you are nouveau riche now, you are still vastly different from the likes of us. You will never belong in our ranks, not in this lifetime nor the next lifetime, nor the next, next one!
“And Brother Ting dumped you five years ago! He still wouldn’t want you now!”
Zuo Yiyi spat all this out in an outburst and sat across from Zhuang Nainai. She took out a checkbook from her purse and laughed. “Zhuang Nainai, if you are smart enough, you will leave Brother Ting now. I will even offer you some compensation to ensure that you and your family will be well off for the rest of your lives.”
Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists tightly upon hearing these words.
This girl still speaks with such malice and sharpness. She might be a poor n.o.body compared to these conglomerate heirs. But what was wrong with being poor? Did that make you a lesser human who’s deserving to be scolded as such?
Already humiliated more than once by Si Zhengting, Zhuang Nainai’s anger was further fueled by Zuo Yiyi’s words. She stood up abruptly, face taut with an intense look in her eyes. “Zuo Yiyi, so what if you are rich? At least we felt love five years ago. What about you? He didn’t even like you five years ago, what makes you think he will now?”
Zuo Yiyi was livid with rage and was shaking. “YOU!!!”
Zhuang Nainai laughed and pressed on, “Besides, get your facts right! Let me tell you, five years ago, I – Dumped – Him.”
Zuo Yiyi’s eyes widened in shock. She stared in disbelief at Zhuang Nainai… and at the door behind her… “Brother Ting?”
Zhuang Nainai shook.
