After dinner, Tian Shengnan quietly cleaned up the trash and placed it beside the shoe cabinet.
Whoever went out would bring it down directly.
After throwing the trash away, she went to the bedroom to take a look.
âSheâs asleep,â she whispered to Ji Yuanyuan and Lin Nan after she came out.
Gao Qionghui was clamoring to commit suicide so Cao Xiangrong would regret it. Therefore, when Tian Shengnan and Lin Nan came over, they hid all the sharp objects, medicine, ropes, and other things in the house.
The windows of the bedroom were also locked.
Therefore, although Gao Qionghui was alone in the bedroom, it was quite safe.
Lin Nanâs lips twitched. She looked at Ji Yuanyuan. âYou donât have to worry too much. In my opinion, Gao Qionghui doesnât have the guts to commit suicide.â
When Tian Shengnan brought up this topic, her expression was slightly uncomfortable.
After all, she had committed suicide before.
âIf she really wants to die, she can settle it quietly at home alone. Why make such a big fuss? She just wants to ruin Cao Xiangrongâs wedding and make him change his mind.â Lin Nan lowered her voice.
Ji Yuanyuan did not refute. She had not seen Gao Qionghui so far, so it was hard to say.
After Lin Nan finished speaking, she looked at Tian Shengnan and asked, âWhat do you think? Do I make sense?â
Tian Shengnan hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly, âEven if thatâs the case, we canât be careless. What if Huihui steeled her heart for the sake of her reputationâ¦â
âThatâs why Iâm still here. Otherwise, I would have left long ago.â Lin Nan sighed.
Tian Shengnan also sighed.
âWhereâs your Han Chengzhi?â Ji Yuanyuan tilted her head and asked Tian Shengnan, âArenât you going back to your hometown on National Day? If you have something to do, donât waste time here. Iâll switch with Lin Nan.â
Tian Shengnan shook her head. âHeâs on duty during National Day. We didnât plan to go home anyway.â
After she finished speaking, the crowd fell silent again.
After a while, Ji Yuanyuan said, âIâm here. You guys should take a break. Iâm going to take Tangtang out to play for a while in the afternoon. Iâll come over in the evening to change shifts with you guys. Iâll be in charge at night.â
Lin Nan yawned, âAlright, Iâll go and sleep for a while. Wake me up before you leave.â
âGo ahead.â Ji Yuanyuan nodded.
Lin Nan walked to the other bedroom.
Tian Shengnan looked at Ji Yuanyuan worriedly. âHer emotions are unstable. Call me if thereâs anything.â
Ji Yuanyuan knew what Tian Shengnan meant. Gao Qionghui had probably scolded her in front of them.
âDonât worry, I can handle it.â She laughed.
Tian Shengnan then went to the guest bedroom to rest.
Ji Yuanyuan sneaked a peek at the master bedroom. Gao Qionghui was still sleeping on the bed.
She left the bedroom and sat on the sofa in the living room. She sent a message to Qin Mucheng. âTake Tangtang to rest for a while after lunch. Send me a message when she wakes up. Letâs meet at the entrance of the zoo.â
Qin Mucheng replied very quickly. âGot it. Howâs it going on your end?â
Ji Yuanyuan replied with an OK gesture. She put down her phone and rubbed her eyes.
Things really came one after another. She was too tired.
After about ten minutes, there was a rustling sound from behind.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly got up and looked behind her.
Gao Qionghui came out of the master bedroom. She was dressed in silk pajamas, her hair was unkempt, and her eyes were red and swollen.
She must have wanted to go to the washroom. The moment she saw Ji Yuanyuan, she stopped in her tracks.
She stared at Ji Yuanyuan indignantly. After a while, she strode towards Ji Yuanyuan. âGet out. Get out. Who allowed you to come to my house?â
She went up to Ji Yuanyuan and pushed her hard.
Ji Yuanyuan frowned. âGao Qionghui, calm down. Letâs have a good talk.â âWhatâs there to talk about? You helped Cao Xiangrong hide it from me and even attended their wedding. Do you treat me as a friend?â Gao Qionghui sneered.
âYes, youâre amazing. Youâre the young mistress of the Qin family. Your current good life was given to you by the Qin family. Of course, you have to help the Qin family. When you need me, you treat me as a friend. When you donât need me, you kick me away like a dog.â
Ji Yuanyuanâs face was cold. âGao Qionghui, thatâs enough. Youâre going overboard if you continue.â
âI went overboard? How could I be as overboard as you? Cao Xiangrong treated me like this. Iâm not asking you to help me, but donât stab me in the back. Do you really think Cao Xiangrong treats you as his sister-in-law? Do you know how he described you when he talked about you behind your back? He said that your family is just a nouveau riche. Qin Mucheng will one dayâ¦â
The sound of a slap resounded throughout the house.
Gao Qionghui covered her face and looked at Ji Yuanyuan in disbelief.
At the door of the second bedroom, Tian Shengnan and Lin Nan, who heard the sound and came out, were completely stunned when they saw this scene. âWhat right do you have to hit me? Ji Yuanyuan, do you really think youâre a upper class member? Only Qin Mucheng treats you like a treasure. No one in the circle treats you like a treasureâ¦â Gao Qionghui seemed to have gone mad and was about to rush towards Ji Yuanyuan.
âGao Qionghui, are you really crazy?â Seeing this, Lin Nan quickly went forward and hugged Gao Qionghui.
Tian Shengnan also rushed forward. Gao Qionghui had not eaten for a day but was still very strong. The two of them managed to hug Gao Qionghui.
Ji Yuanyuan stood still and calmly rubbed her wrist.
She had used all her strength in that slap just now, and it had hurt her wrist.
She raised her head and looked at Gao Qionghui coldly. âYou really disappoint me. Is there any point in doing this?â
Ji Yuanyuanâs indifferent words made Gao Qionghui inexplicably quiet down.
She stared blankly at Ji Yuanyuan. After a while, she suddenly cried out. âWhat else can I do? Three years. Iâve been with him for three years. You said the woman by his side has never stayed more than a year. I thought he would marry me. I really fell in love with him. Tell me, what should I do to make him marry me?â
âDo you love him or his money?â Ji Yuanyuan said lightly.
Now that things had come to this, she didnât want to give Gao Qionghui a face anymore.
She wouldnât be able to walk out if she didnât speak clearly.
Lin Nanâs eyes widened. She did not expect Ji Yuanyuan to say such a thing.
âAfter spending money like dirt for three years, youâve already fallen into it, right? Any one of those bags is worth several months of your salary. Without Cao Xiangrong, you canât afford it yourself.â Ji Yuanyuan raised her hand and pointed at a display cabinet in the corner of the living room.
Gao Qionghui opened her mouth and looked at Ji Yuanyuan, unable to say a word.
âYou said it yourself. I warned you three years ago that Cao Xiangrong was not a good partner. The women around him often changed. The longest was less than a year. Back then, you took acted carefree and said you didnât care.â Ji Yuanyuanâs tone was indifferent as if she was talking about someone else..
