She had overestimated Gu Wushuang.
She immediately gave Gu Wushuang a ring.
She wasn’t the original owner who’d feel that she couldn’t show any weakness in front of the fake daughter and had the need to prop herself up.
She’d ask when she needed to ask!
Did Gu Wushuang think she’d fight with the server at the entrance?
“Hi, Wushuang. I am here now. Can you come and get me?”
She has no shame in asking.
Since Gu Wushuang liked little tricks so much, she could take a few extra steps and come and get her!
Soon, a soft and tender voice came from the other end.
“Oh, Shishi. I’m sorry, I forgot to send you the invitation. Just give them my name and they will let you in.”
Gu Shishi pursed her lips.
“I don’t think that’s a good idea. I didn’t have the proper invitation after all.
“If I come inside myself, it’d seem like I have invited myself.”
Silence from the other end of the phone.
“It’s all electronic invitation now. Let me forward it to you via WeChat.”
Oh, yeah?
Why didn’t she send it sooner then?
Gu Shishi couldn’t help but snicker to herself.
“Aye, I was hoping you can come and get me so I won’t walk the wrong direction. And if I run into anyone on the way, you will be able to introduce us so I wouldn’t seem rude.
“Or, I can give mom a call as well.”
The original owner’s real mom wasn’t all that fond of the original owner. She didn’t believe Gu Wushuang had nothing to do with that.
Sure enough, as soon as she mentioned Mrs. Gu, Gu Wushuang’s reaction was almost instantaneous.
“Wait there. I am on my way.”
Gu Shishi lifted her brows.
It looked like Gu Wushuang had a lot to do with the minimal contact between the original owner and her mother.
As much as the original owner was her real daughter, if she didn’t raise her for 20 years plus a lack of contact, they would never have a relationship with each other.
It’d be awkward and distant for the both of them whenever they meet and that’d only get worse with each additional time that they saw each other.
And they’d get more and more distance from each other.
This little white flower was surely some character.
Gu Shishi squinted.
“Oh, okay. Hurry up. I don’t want to stand outside and have to explain to other visitors why I was standing here because I didn’t receive an invitation.”
Oh yeah, little girl. Was that how you wanted to do it?
She could take her time if she didn’t care about her letting others know that she withheld the invitation on purpose and had her waited outside!
Sure enough, Gu Wushuang arrived in less than 2 minutes in quick steps. Winded, her cheeks pink with a hint of paleness, and her hand was clutching her chest.
“I’m so sorry, Shishi. I didn’t think about waiting at the front to go inside with you.”
Her limpid eyes looked apologetic.
“No worries. Let’s go.”
Gu Shishi immediately passed her and walked in front of her.
Someone happened to walk past and gave them a couple additional looks.
Gu Wushuang’s hand that was clutching her chest balled into a fist immediately!
A shred of shame flashed past her red lips.
She hadn’t expected Gu Shishi to have her come to fetch her.
What would others think when they saw her going to get Gu Shishi?
That was clearly a message that the fake daughter must make way for the real daughter!!
Gu Wushuang’s breathing became heavier.
“Shuangshuang, I’ve told you not to run, but you wouldn’t listen! See, your chest is tightening again, right?”
A delicate-looking girl in a dress with golden sequins came running out and held onto Gu Wushuang as she turned and gave Gu Shishi a reproachful look.
“You knew that Shuangshuang didn’t have the best of health and yet you’ve made her come and get you. Who does that?”
Gu Shishi was yelled at immediately!
“It’s alright, Pingting.. it wasn’t Shishi’ fault. I said I’d go and get her. After all, she wasn’t familiar with this place and was nervous….”
Gu Wushuang leaned against the shoulder of the girl in a long dress as though she was about to cry.
“Shuangshuang! She was trying to kill you so she can have all the inheritance. You don’t need to be that nice to her!”
Luo Pingting hugged Gu Wushuang like a hen protecting her chick and stared at Gu Shishi angrily.
“It wasn’t like that. Everything of the Gu’s belongs to Shishi. I am the one who has taken her spot in life…”
