Bai Youran was not an intelligent person and having been born in the Bai family, she was used to behaving arrogantly. Her act of generosity was merely to make Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing listen to her and help her ruin Gu Qingyao.
How would she have known that the mother-daughter pair believed that they had encountered a money tree such that they thought they could spend lavishly from now on!
Ever since Gu Qingyao knew that her Second Cousin and Ji Mingyue got together, she became even closer to Ji Mingyue.
Ji Mingyue was no longer attending school in the provincial capital as a certain fox had ever-so-swiftly helped his future wife to transfer schools to one in the capital.
Too bad, he was a top student and knew many teachers and professors. In addition, Gu Qingyao also knew many scholars and teachers.
There were only a few people in the academic world currently, and it was an easy feat for Gu Jinhang to transfer a student to the capital and arrange for her to attend a school.
As long as Ji Mingyue was not an idiot and had decent grades, Gu Jinhang could arrange for her to enter any school he wished.
.
As such, the elder brothers of the Ji family were extremely grateful to him again and insisted on treating him to a round of drinks as he cared so much about their younger sister!
After Gu Qingyao found out what happened, she saluted her Second Cousin in admiration.
The weather was pleasant today, and Gu Qingyao and Ji Mingyue went out to shop. Coincidentally, they met Bai Youran.
It was, however, no coincidence as Bai Youran especially came to look for Gu Qingyao.
She stood in front of Gu Qingyao very proudly as though she was in control of everything.
Gu Qingyao raised a brow!
Bai Youran walked toward Gu Qingyao elegantly and said, "I never thought that you would still be shopping with someone so leisurely. Aren't you worried that you would lose everything in the future and have nowhere to go?"
Gu Qingyao's eyes glinted with laughter. "What are you saying? I have a family, my cousins and many relatives who dote on me. Oh, and a fiance who pampers me. What do I need to be worried about? Ah… I'm just eating, shopping and playing every day. How boring!"
"You…"
Bai Youran gritted her teeth. "Don't be proud. Let me tell you, Gu Qingyao, you are nothing. Very quickly, you will lose everything that you have now. Do you really believe that all is well because you are the young lady of the Gu family? Ha Ha!
"I know something about your mother. Your mother… told me many things, especially the things about you when you were young. Do you want to hear about it?"
Gu Qingyao paused whatever she was doing. "My mother? My mother left the Gu family ten years ago. What have the things she told you about got to do with me?"
Bai Youran smiled. "Of course it has something to do with you…"
She glanced at Ji Mingyue and said meaningfully, "It's regarding your parentage. Don't you wish to know? You won't want me to say it in front of an outsider right? That will not be good for you!"
Gu Qingyao's expression changed.
She knew Bai Youran was not intelligent, so she did not make things difficult for her and instead told Ji Mingyue, "There is a cafe over there. Let's take a seat inside for a while. I'm going to talk to her alone and see what she wants to say."
Ji Mingyue took a look at Bai Youran and told Gu Qingyao, "All right, but you must not be fooled. She's obviously here to cause trouble for you."
Gu Qingyao nodded. "Don't worry!"
The three of them headed to the cafe not far away. Ji Mingyue waited for them at a seat outside while Gu Qingyao and Bai Youran entered a private room.
"Shoot it! What's it about?"
