Ding Mengya never expected that Li Yufeng would look for her!
She was in a spa and was thinking about how to persuade her own son, but upon hearing this, she thought about what the butler had told her. Zhuang Nainai’s relationship with Li Yufeng had taken a turn for the better, and she didn’t want to outrightly reject Li Yufeng. Just as she was about to speak, Li Yufeng continued, “I just got out of Zhuang Nainai’s house, and I want to talk to you about some things.”
Just out of the Si residence?
Was this an implication that the issue at hand had to do with Zhuang Nainai?
Or was it something that Zhuang Nainai asked Li Yufeng to do?
Ding Mengya thought for a moment before agreeing. “I’m at the Roman Beauty Clubhouse. You can come to look for me.”
Li Yufeng replied, “Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Gu Xingshan curled her lips. “Mother, what are you going to tell them? Also, what are you doing, thinking on behalf of Gu Qingyan? Don’t you hate her?”
When she heard this, Li Yufeng’s eyes flashed for a moment. Looking at Gu Xingshan, she was about to speak but decided against it.
Gu Xingshan was still young and hadn’t experienced enough; it was better not to tell her.
That also meant that bringing Gu Xingshan along wasn’t a good idea. As such, Li Yufeng got their chauffeur to send Gu Xingshan back home first. Just as they arrived at the doorstep, they bumped into Gu Xinghao, who was also just about to step into the house.
Seeing the two of them and the way Li Yufeng didn’t even greet him before going off again, he couldn’t resist and asked Gu Xingshan, “Hey, what did y’all go do?”
Gu Xingshan pursed her lips together. “What else could we have been doing? Gu Qingyan’s pregnant, so Mother took me to see her.”
Having said this, she continued, “She was pretending to be all high and mighty! Hypocrite!”
Gu Xinghao asked in curiosity, “What’s up?”
Gu Xingshan gave a cold snort. “Mother told her to ask Mr. Si for some shares, but she disagreed. If that isn’t pretending to be high and mighty, what is?”
Gu Xinghao began laughing. “That’s definitely stupid! Ha ha, but women like these are hard to find nowadays, huh?”
Both of them continued speaking as they entered their villa.
On the other hand, Li Yufeng arrived at the clubhouse. She called Ding Mengya and was brought into a private room by a service staff.
The clubhouse was extremely high-class, with extravagant furnishings and professional beauticians. In fact, this was a secret place that superstars and celebrities frequented.
One couldn’t enter such a place based on wealth alone; one needed standing.
Li Yufeng, for one, didn’t have the membership card for this clubhouse.
She was brought into a private room where Ding Mengya, with her shoulders bared, was enjoying a shoulder massage with essential oils. At the sight of Li Yufeng, she pointed toward a sofa at the side and said, “Sit.”
Li Yufeng didn’t know what to say.
This wasn’t the first time they were meeting each other.
The social circles of people in high society were actually very small; when Gu Deshou had first set up the Gu Corporation, Li Yufeng had met Ding Mengya.
Ding Mengya had worn a purple coat that gave her a commanding presence, striking admiration in the hearts of the people around her. At that point in time, Li Yufeng had been envious of both her aura and her substance.
Little did Li Yufeng expect that, after all these years, even without the help of clothes, she would still be no match for Ding Mengya.
There were some things that could only be naturally acquired through a life of wealth.
And the bones of the poor… was something that stuck hard in one’s body. No amount of cash-throwing and spending was enough to wash away one’s cheapness.
Li Yufeng clenched her fists at the thought of this, and a look of deep thought crossed her gaze.
