However, just as the two of them were about to leave, a timely voice sounded and stopped Gu Man and Old Master Cui.
“Grandpa Cui, Sister Gu.” Huang Yue was full of smiles and quickly called out to them.
When he saw Huang Yue, a smile instantly appeared on Old Master Cui’s face. Because Huang Yue always made him feel like he was looking at his daughter, he had a good impression of her.
“Huang Yue, why are you back?” Old Master Cui smiled until his eyes narrowed and he looked at Huang Yue happily.
Huang Yue pouted playfully. “Grandpa Cui, 1 don’t have to tell you for you to know that I’m back.”
The smile on Old Master Cui’s face became even brighter. The two of them made small talk.
During the conversation, Huang Yue deliberately looked at Gu Man smugly, but there was no change in Gu Man’s expression, as if she did not care at all.
Huang Yue looked at her calm face and immediately felt unbalanced.
What was she pretending for? She must be extremely envious.
She snorted and unintentionally changed the topic to Gu Man. She had recorded it from the beginning. It would become a sharp weapon to push Gu Man off the cliff.
“Sister Gu, why are you here?” Huang Yue pretended to be innocent. “Could it be that you’re here to play with them too? I just came to Han City and don’t know anything about this place. They insisted on bringing me here.”
As she spoke, Huang Yue did not forget to show off her status and popularity. She clearly remembered that at the banquet, no matter how beautifully Gu Man dressed, no one hit on her.
Her ident.i.ty was still a weakness. Gu Man did not have any ident.i.ty, so she was destined to fade into the background.
“I’m here with Old Master Cui.” Gu Man did not hide anything at all. She just hid her ident.i.ty.
When Huang Yue heard this, her eyes lit up and her breathing quickened. She did not expect Gu Man to be brainless and so easy to trick.
She immediately decided to continue. “It seems like Sister Gu is very familiar with Grandpa Cui. If I didn’t know that your surname is Gu, I would have mistaken you for Grandpa Cui’s granddaughter.”
Old Master Cui looked overjoyed. “Just treat her as my granddaughter.”
Huang Yue was stunned. Old Master Cui had never introduced her to anyone like this outside. Why did it change when it came to Gu Man? This also made Huang Yue believe that the two of them definitely had an extraordinary relationship.
She adjusted the expression on her face and smiled. “Looks like Grandpa Cui has a good relationship with Sister Gu. I’m so envious. When did Grandpa Cui get close to Sister Gu?”
“Recently,” Old Master Cui replied with a smile. Once it came to Gu Man, Old Master Cui was especially enthusiastic.
Although Huang Yue was dissatisfied, the expression on her face became much brighter after getting what she wanted.
She walked forward and wanted to hold Gu Man’s arm intimately, but Gu Man took a step back and dodged her. Huang Yue hid the ruthlessness in her eyes and revealed an aggrieved expression. “It seems like Sister Gu doesn’t like me very much. We had clearly talked the last time.”
She was deliberately acting pitiful in front of Old Master Cui. After all, if the recording was exposed, it would definitely affect her relationship with Old Master Cui. However, if she made Old Master Cui stop liking Gu Man before it was exposed, Old Master Cui would only reprimand her a little. It was not to the extent that she could not make him stay.
However, Old Master Cui, who had been protecting her, did not defend her at this moment. Instead, he spoke up for Gu Man. “That’s her personality, but after interacting with her, you’ll know that she’s a good person.”
Old Master Cui had never heard Gu Man mention her friends, nor had he seen any female friends by her side.
It seemed that she had left a shadow in the Gu family and did not dare to make friends. Huang Yue had a good personality and he hoped she would make Gu Man more cheerful. Gu Man’s cold appearance made one’s heart ache.
The words that Huang Yue had prepared were suddenly useless. She even forgot to maintain the expression on her face. The smile on her face split with disbelief, making her look especially comical.
Fortunately, Huang Yue did not question her directly. She forced a smile and nodded, not even willing to say anything..
