Time quickly pa.s.sed by.
For the past few days, Luo Zheng had been busy with her studies and would sometimes feel weak because of the drugs in her body. Fortunately, she had yet to suffer a relapse.
Due to the fact that she was immersed in revision, she no longer visited Capital University everyday like she used to.
She only realized when she visited Capital University some time later, that Bo Hancheng had been absent and seemed to have applied for leave because he had something to attend to.
That was not all. Luo Zheng realized to her dismay that she still did not get his mobile number.
The difference was that this time, she had forgotten about it because she was too obsessed with him.
Hence, she felt that she really had to stop being man-obsessed. If her drug addiction were to relapse, she would be in dire consequences when she could not contact him!
…
On Wednesday evening, the Gu Family’s banquet was held in a manor built in the mountains.
In her previous life, Luo Zheng had once served Gu Changye and was well aware that this was his main residence. It occupied a huge plot of land and the layout was very luxurious, outstanding and extravagant.
Luo Zheng put on her makeup meticulously and picked out a red gown which she changed into before pulling her hair back into an updo.
Luo Zheng then grabbed a photo frame from the bedside cabinet.
The lady in the photo was beautiful, elegant and prestigious… she was none other than Luo Huawei, Luo Zheng’s birth mother!
“Mother, don’t worry, the Mu Family is so greedy. I’ll destroy them one by one!” Luo Zheng smiled coldly and put down the photo frame before turning around to leave the room.
At the instant that she made her way downstairs, she was greeted with the sight of the Mu Family members who seemed to be gloating… she could vaguely guess that something was about to happen during the Gu Family’s banquet.
“Father, do I look good?” Luo Zheng asked Mu Tianwei, ignoring everyone else.
Upon hearing this, Mu Tianwei turned around to look at Luo Zheng.
His expression stiffened and a look of disgust formed in his eyes. However, he quickly suppressed it!
However, Luo Zheng could still clearly see it and hence, continued, “Do I look like Mother?”
Indeed, Luo Zheng had dolled herself up in the same way that Luo Huawei was dressed in the photo. Since Luo Huawei was her mother, Luo Zheng naturally resembled her.
Her mannerisms just now were almost exactly like Luo Huawei’s!
“You do look like her! Let’s go, we can’t be late… ” Mu Tianwei said hurriedly and ignored Luo Zheng before walking out.
Luo Zheng looked down and sneered.
Mu Tianwei, are you already disgusted?
Are you feeling guilty… or scared?
She had no idea why her mother chose to marry Mu Tianwei, out of all the people in the world.
Mu Tianwei was clearly married with children and yet, he hid it from Luo Huawei… Before they got married, he clearly knew that Luo Huawei was pregnant with Luo Zheng and yet, he still chose to marry her. Wasn’t he doing it out of greed and desire for her wealth?
Even though she did not care about her biological father, she felt fortunate… that Mu Tianwei was not her biological father!
Hah, I intentionally tried to emulate Mother, simply because I wanted to make Mu Tianwei feel uneasy. I didn’t think he’d react so greatly. This is… beyond what I expected!
Luo Zheng and Mu Tianwei then left together.
Filled with displeasure, Su Xuanxuan complained to Mu Cuiyun, “Mother, why can’t I attend the Gu Family’s banquet? If I go, I might be able to get acquainted with a rich man and end up marrying him!”
Mu Cuiyun was feeling increasingly disgruntled. Her daughter was indeed correct. She did want her daughter to attend the banquet too.
However, Su Xuanxuan was not fit to do so!
At the thought of it, Li Shufen frowned and exclaimed in displeasure, “Xuanxuan, there are only two invitations from the Gu Family so Tianwei can only take the little b.a.s.t.a.r.d with him. You’re not invited!”
In fact, the Mu Family was invited this time, only because Gu Changye obviously wanted Luo Zheng… Otherwise, Mu Tianwei would never be eligible to attend the banquet even though he was a minor shareholder in the Gu Family’s company!
Su Xuanxuan pouted, feeling indignant because she was deemed as inferior to Luo Zheng.
Having understood what she meant, Mu Cuiyun comforted softly, “Don’t worry, as long as the little b.a.s.t.a.r.d can please Young Master Gu well, the Gu Family will value us! You’ll then have the chance to meet more wealthy heirs… ”
Suddenly reminded of something, she continued, “Besides, you still have your cousin! She seems to have a future with the third son of the Bo Family! She might even become the First Lady in the future… ”
