Gu Qingcheng wouldnât let Yuan Qiaolan know her name.
At the very least, Yuan Qiaolan was not worthy of knowing.
She deliberately shivered and pretended to be frightened by Yuan Qiaolanâs arrogant aura.
Seeing Gu Qingchengâs reaction, Yuan Feng quickly said, âMom, why are you so fierce?â
âIâm fierce? How am I fierce?â Yuan Qiaolan raised her voice and glared at her son, Yuan Feng. âI only asked her what her name was. Which ear of yours heard me scolding her?â
Gu Qingcheng took two steps back, looking intimidated.
Yuan Feng saw Gu Qingchengâs actions, and his eyes were filled with anxiety and frustration. It was as if he was afraid that his mother, Yuan Qiaolan, would scare away the fair, rich, and beautiful woman he had finally gotten to know.
âMom, donât ask anymore. Just call her Miss Gu.â He comforted her and persuaded her softly, âMom, can you do me a favor?â
Yuan Qiaolan had always treated her son like this. Seeing her son trying to persuade her, she snorted coldly.
âMiss Gu, how did you meet my son?â His tone was sharp and mean. âMy family is rich. My son, Yuan Feng, is the chairman of Aoshan. He has a noble status.
Heâs not someone that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get close to.â
If Gu Qingcheng hadnât been so hot-tempered just to make herself look weak..
With Yuan Qiaolan insulting her like this, she would either give her a kick or a few slaps, causing her to kneel and beg for mercy.
A murderer who became rich by killing her mother had the cheek to pretend to be rich in front of her.
Wealthy families?
Ha!
Any Tom, Dick, or Harry could be called a wealthy family, and they didnât find it embarrassing!
âUhâ¦â She pretended to be gentle and weak. âIâll hitâ¦â
âWe were introduced by a friend.â Before Gu Qingcheng could say anything, Yuan Feng told Yuan Qiaolan, âMom, let me take you to the beauty salon. Iâm going to have dinner with Miss Gu.â
Yuan Qiaolan was unhappy when she heard that. âIâm not going to the beauty salon. I want to eat dinner too. Letâs go together!â
She got into the car as she spoke.
Yuan Feng looked at Gu Qingcheng helplessly and apologetically. âIâm sorry. My mother has an awful temper.â
âNo⦠Itâs fineâ¦â Gu Qingcheng looked like a frightened quail. âShe doesnât like me, so I wonât disturb her and your son. Iâll leave first.â
âDonât be intimidated.â Yuan Feng quickly stopped Gu Qingcheng. âIâm here.
You donât have to be afraid of my mother.â
Gu Qingcheng asked Yuan Feng gently, âWhy are you so nice to me?â
âWe are good friends.â Yuan Feng smiled and comforted Gu Qingcheng. âIâll definitely treat you well.â
âBut you donât even know my name.â Gu Qingcheng continued to wait for Yuan Fengâs reply. âIf I donât feel like telling you my name?â
âIâm cool with it.â Yuan Fengâs expression was gentle. âIf you donât want to say it, then so be it. Anyway, you will tell me one day.â
Gu Qingcheng smiled. âNot only will I not,â she said gently,â I wonât even let you see my face. You donât mind?â
âI donât mind.â
âAh Feng, youâre so nice.â Gu Qingcheng smiled. âIâm a good cook. Why donât you guys come over to my place for dinner? Iâll make something for you.â
âAhâ¦â Yuan Feng didnât expect Gu Qingcheng to say something like that.
Surprised, he said, âGo to your place to eat and have a go.â
âWe can go to your house too.â Gu Qingcheng suggested to Yuan Feng.
âActually, my stomach doesnât feel very well today. I donât really feel like eating out. The food might be unsanitary, making my stomach even more uncomfortable.â
Yuan Feng thought for a moment and said, âSure, letâs go to my house. But you wonât be able to cook. I have a cook at home who can cook. Moreover, the home-cooked dishes are very delicious. I believe you will like them.â
âWow, Feng,â Gu Qingcheng said with a bright smile. âYouâre so nice.â
Seeing Gu Qingcheng so happy, Yuan Feng was even happier.
She was such a beautiful, rich girl, and he was still single. He definitely could not miss this opportunity.
When Gu Qingcheng was about to get into the car, she saw Yuan Qiaolan sitting in the front passenger seat.
Her eyes flashed with ridicule as she sat in the back seat.
Along the way, Yuan Qiaolan kept chatting with Yuan Feng. She couldnât be bothered with him anyway, so she was happy and idle.
âAh Feng, arenât we going to eat?â Yuan Qiaolan looked out of the car window at the Blue Moon Bay residential area and frowned. âWhy are you home?â
âI want to eat Nanny Zhangâs cooking. Mom, donât frown,â Yuan Feng replied.
âOtherwise, youâll grow wrinkles, and your beauty will go to waste.â
When Yuan Qiaolan heard this, she quickly smoothed her brows and took out a mirror to look at herself, afraid that she would frown and get wrinkles.
Gu Qingcheng didnât look at Yuan Feng and Yuan Qiaolan. Instead, she looked out the window and observed the route outside.
Yuan Qiaolan lived on the thirty-second floor in a five-hundred-square-meter unit. The view of the lake and the night view from the window was breathtaking, to say the least.
Just like Yuan Qiaolan, the decoration of the house was golden yellow.
âYour house is so beautiful and luxurious.â Gu Qingcheng took the cup of coffee from Yuan Feng.â Show me around?â
âAlright.â Yuan Feng didnât think too much about it as he led Gu Qingcheng away. âThis is my room, my parents. This is the study, and this is the gym..
âYour family is so rich. There must be a pile of gold bars hidden in the safe in the study.âGu Qingcheng smiled happily and said jokingly, âOr maybe your parentsâ safe is filled with gold bars or jewelry. Hehe, Iâll come and steal your jewelry another day.â
âMy house and all the jewelry in the safe are not as expensive as your car.
However, you donât have to steal it. I can give you the jewelry you want.â Yuan Feng was amused by Gu Qingchengâs words, but he pretended to play along with her again. He leaned closer to her and whispered, âBut if you want to enjoy stealing, let me tell you, my valuables are all in the safe in my motherâs dressing room. However, the safe is very hidden. Whether you can find it or not depends on your ability.â
Gu Qingcheng smiled, but she was secretly delighted.
After spending time with Yuan Feng for an entire day, she finally had a piece of news that was worth using.
At that moment, Yuan Feng was very close to Gu Qingcheng. He could smell the fragrance on her body, and his face was filled with infatuation. He saw the pink diamond necklace around her neck, and he was sure she was fair, rich and beautiful.
Gu Qingcheng noticed Yuan Fengâs behavior and subconsciously distanced herself from him. âThis vase is really beautiful.â
If it wasnât for her goal, she would have punched Yuan Feng with her fist if he was so close to her! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yuan Qiaolan saw that Yuan Feng and Miss Gu were chatting so happily. While Miss Gu went to the bathroom, she immediately walked up to her.
âAh Feng, who is this Miss Gu? Why are you still wearing sunglasses in our house?â she asked him, mocking him unhappily. âWhy are you pretending to be cool?!â
Yuan Feng lowered his voice and told Yuan Qiaolan about the car crash. He also told her about Gu Qingchengâs car and the jewelry she was wearing. âSheâs very rich. After chatting for two days, I realized that she was obviously single. Moreover, sheâs timid but very elegant.â
âIf I can make her happy and we become a couple, with her weak personality, I can easily control her and get involved with a rich family. In the future, all her money will be ours.â
Yuan Qiaolan was a gold-digger. After hearing Yuan Fengâs description, her impression of Miss Gu changed a little.
However, she seemed to have thought of something else. She frowned and asked in a deep voice, âDo you think she rented a car? The jewelry on her is fake?â
âMom, Iâve checked the cars she drives. Theyâre all limited editions. I dare say that you wonât be able to find a second one in the entire Jiang City,â Yuan Feng said softly. âBesides, no matter how fake a rich girl is, she canât pretend to be a real one. Believe me. Iâm not wrong about her.â
Yuan Qiaolanâs eyes were filled with worry, but she still said to Yuan Feng,
âAlright, I will believe you this once.â
âMom, why do you have such an expression when you encounter such a good thing? Whatâs wrong?â Yuan Feng asked in confusion.
âIâm thinking about her surname.â Yuan Qiaolanâs eyes were filled with thoughts. âCould it be the Gu family I know? If itâs the Gu family that Iâm thinking of, then itâll be troublesome.â
âYou know that Gu family?â Yuan Feng asked, âWhich Gu family? What does she look like?â
