Facing the daughter of her best friend, Xiao Yun also felt very helpless.

First, she was too short-sighted. On the surface, she was someone who had gone to England to drink foreign ink, but in those few years, she had probably focused all her attention on the matters of men and women. It would not be of any help to her advancement.

Second, her personality was too extreme, and could not withstand the blow. With just one sentence from Fang Qing, she was left speechless and sobbing.

It was not that Xiao Yun had not thought of finding a rich girl who was more of a match for her. However, other people’s daughters had the support of their parents, so they would not take Xiao Yun seriously.

Sometimes, Xiao Yun even thought that if she were twenty years younger, she would not need to support an ignorant woman like Zhao Mei.

Although she thought so, Xiao Yun still held Zhao Mei’s hand and comforted her, “Hey, don’t cry. Why are you arguing with a woman from the countryside? She doesn’t even know the rules and etiquette. Do you want to lower yourself to her level?”

Zhao Mei cried like a weeping pear blossom, she sobbed and said to Xiao Yun, “Auntie, I’m not lowering myself to his level. I’m just feeling wronged. Why can such a woman enter the Gu family just because of the casual words she said when she was young? If that’s the case, brother Gu Cheng will feel very offended.”

Xiao Yun sneered in her heart, but she still comforted her without a trace on her face, “Darling, don’t worry. Auntie has already made arrangements for everything tonight. Just watch how that woman is despised by Cheng Zheng.”

After Xiao Yun said this, his eyes shone as he looked at Gu Cheng’s room.

Thus, the next morning, the scene at the door of Gu Cheng’s room appeared.

However, Zhao Mei did not scream out of joy. Instead, she was extremely shocked and in disbelief.

Gu Cheng had actually embraced Fang Qing into his chest. This was simply unbelievable to Gu Cheng, who had always been cold to him.

There was indeed something wrong with the water that Xiao Yun had asked the servants to prepare for Fang Qing last night. Because Fang Qing’s body was very strong, the effects of the medicine were very slow. It was only when it was close to dawn that there was a reaction on her body.

Xiao Yun thought that if Gu Cheng saw a strange woman lying on his bed after he entered the room, coupled with her flirtatious appearance, based on his usual personality, he would definitely kick Fang Qing out of the Gu family without any hesitation.

Even if he had some doubts about this process, Gu Cheng would never fall out with his mother because of a strange woman.

However, what the two women did not expect was that not only was there no movement in Gu Cheng’s room the whole night, they even saw this scene this morning…

The commotion was so big that it naturally alerted Gu Cheng in the room.

Gu Cheng fiercely glanced at the door of the room, as if he had shot out a sharp sword in the cold winter. “Get lost.”

Zhao Mei did not expect that no matter how cold Gu Cheng was to her, he would never be as fierce to her as he was now. She also thought of Gu Cheng’s gentle gaze on Fang Qing after she opened the door. The grievance in her heart was even more monstrous, so she heavily closed the door, feeling wronged, she ran downstairs.

With such a huge commotion, even if Fang Qing was a pig, she should have woken up.

Fang Qing looked at the unfamiliar man on her face. A few seconds later, she realized how flirtatious she was with him. She immediately pulled herself out and put on a defensive stance. She asked, “Who are you?”

Gu Cheng felt amused and annoyed. “You’re lying on my bed in my room, and you’re asking who I am?”

Fang Qing finally realized that this was probably the only young master of the Gu family, her ‘fiancé’, Gu Cheng. However, was the Gu family so open-minded? They could share a bed with someone they had never even met.

Fang Qing replied sarcastically, “I didn’t know that the Gu family was so open-minded that the mother of the house would arrange for a man to share a room with someone she had never met before.”

Gu Cheng thought about Fang Qing’s words in his heart, but he still teased her, “Oh? is that so? Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this room belongs to a man. You didn’t even reject the arrangement to stay here. Could it be that it was done deliberately?”

Fang Qing was instantly speechless. She had thought that this was a child’s trick last night, but who would have thought that the owner of this room was actually her ‘fiancé’.

But who was Fang Qing? She had never lost a battle of words ever since she was young, she immediately retorted, “Even if I’m short-sighted and can’t tell if the owner of this room is a man or a woman, I was actually hugged by young master Gu in such a strange position when I woke up this morning. Then can I also think that young master Gu has already fallen in love with me?”

However, the truth was that Gu Cheng still had not fallen asleep when it was close to morning, but he noticed something strange about Fang Qing beside him.
