Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Wanâan had just sat down on the sofa when she felt her phone vibrate.
She took out her phone and opened the message.
[Waiting for you in the bathroom. Hurry up! ]
The text message was from an unknown number, and it only had a few words.
She wrinkled her nose and sent a text back. [Who are you?]
I Youâll know in a while. However, I should be the person you want to see the most at the moment. Donât waste time.] The other party replied very quickly and with great impatience.
The person she wanted to see the mostâ¦
Gu Wanâan stared at the words, her expression a little dazed.
Mu Ziâan or Shen Ziqing?
Her chest heaved slightly as she put away her phone and stood up. âIâm going to the bathroom.â
âHm.â Gong Mingye put out the cigarette between his fingers and nodded faintly.
Once she stepped into the bathroom, she found that no one was there. Gu Wanâan frowned and prepared to send a text message to the unknown number.
At that moment-
The door behind her suddenly opened, and a hand reached out from inside and grabbed her arm, pulling her in.
âGu Wanâan, long time no see.â
A clear and familiar voice sounded in the bathroom.
Gu Wanâanâs pupils shrank as she turned around abruptly.
The woman slowly took off her sunglasses, revealing a beautiful yet almost identical face to hers. It was none other than Shen Ziqing.
âI didnât expect that an ugly duckling like you could become a white swan. Wearing a haute couture dress, you really donât look as rustic as before.â Shen Ziqing crossed her arms and turned around elegantly to look at Gu Wanâan.
âWhy did you suddenly come over without a warning?â Gu Wanâan stared at her coldly.
âWhy? Are you addicted to being the Second Young Lady and dislike me for coming back too early?â
âHehe, you have a lot of nerves!â Gu Wanâan sneered and her gaze sank. âIf youâre not afraid of the Gong family finding out, what should I be afraid of?â
Shen Ziqing chuckled, âDonât worry, youâre not needed now, you should also go back from wherever you came from. So, letâs swap back.â
Gu Wanâan didnât say anything more and took off the dress in a few moves.
Shen Ziqing also handed her clothes to her.
Both of them put on the otherâs clothes.
After changing her makeup, Shen Ziqing didnât want to stay in this place for even a second.
Remembering something, Gu Wanâan said, âWait a minute.â
âWhat now?â Shen Ziqingâs face was full of impatience and turned around with disgust. âAre you regretting? Not willing to go back to your trashy place? Gu Wanâan, listen carefully. Donât be delusional. People have to accept their fate. Youâre born poor. Donât think that youâre a phoenix just because youâve pretended to be a young lady for a few days.â
Gu Wanâan raised her eyebrows.
Shen Ziqing really has a filthy mouth that cannot utter decent language.
But, she was already used to it, and her words went in one ear and out the other.
She reached out and pulled the silk handkerchief off her head, handing it over. âHere.â
âTsk, what a country bumpkin. Using a silk handkerchief to tie your hair. What kind of lousy aesthetic is it?â
Shen Ziqing rolled her eyes and grabbed the silk handkerchief impatiently, tying her hair into a ponytail.
The dark green dress and silk handkerchief were indeed a good match.
Gu Wanâanâs gaze fell on the dark green silk handkerchief that Shen Ziqing had already put on. Her eyes lingered and she couldnât move her gaze away for a while.
âRemember, sneak out from the back door. Donât be discovered, or elseâ¦â Shen Ziqing was still uneasy. She turned around and left the bathroom.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Gu Wanâan put on the hat and sunglasses.
Passing by the hall, she saw Shen Ziqing pushing Gong Mingye with a smile on her face.
Her steps paused.
Suddenly, Gong Mingyeâs gaze swept over.
Gu Wanâanâs heart tightened. She quickened her steps and left hurriedly..
