“Mommy, you have a solution?!” Gu Xuexue’s eyes lit up.
Gu Meifeng was pleased with herself. “Of course, it’s your mommy’s specialty to mess with people, okay? Tell me, who’s number two… What? Other than her, everyone else scored zero points? Haha, that’s even better. The greediest and darkest thing in this world is the human heart…”

They finished their meal happily.
Gu Qiqi was about to pay.
Gong Jue held her hand. “I’ll do it.”
Gu Qiqi said, “Huh? Isn’t it my treat?”
Gong Jue: “You have the cheek to treat me to something so cheap? We’ll talk about it next time.”
Gu Qiqi was speechless.
Gong Jue paid the bill.
Only then did she realize that something was wrong. There were abalone and sea prawns in the skewer. It was not cheap!
She felt that she was tricked by Gong Jue again.
In the end, she still owed him a meal.
On the way back.
Gong Jue asked Special Assistant Lu to get off work early and he drove personally.
When they ran into a red light, he even made an excuse to check if Gu Qiqi’s seat belt had loosened. He bent down and brushed his lips across her cheek…
However, the dumb woman did not move at all. She merely stared at him with her innocent eyes, showing no intention of kissing him!
Gong Jue’s gaze darkened.
Since the “benefits” were gone…
It seemed like he would have to take the initiative in the future.
This dumb woman’s period… After being there for so long, shouldn’t it be over now?
On the way.
They passed by a pharmacy.
Gu Qiqi stopped him.
“Can you wait for me by the roadside? I’ll be back soon.” Gu Qiqi asked Gong Jue.
“Yes.” Gong Jue looked at the pharmacy on the street. There were many pedestrians around. The lights were bright and the view was wide. The safety index was still quite high.
After Gu Qiqi got out of the car and walked into the pharmacy, he started to feel that something was wrong.
Why was there a large “Chu” on the signboard of the pharmacy? It looked so annoying!
That was Chu Junmo’s most profitable pharmacy!
Gong Jue frowned.
What was this dumb woman doing in that brat’s territory?
Could it be that there was some secret signal between them that they had agreed to hook up at the pharmacy?
Gong Jue could no longer sit still.
A man’s sensitivity to his love rival might be innate.
Without any hesitation, he pushed open the door and got out of the car.
After Gu Qiqi left, he entered the pharmacy.
At this moment.
Gu Qiqi walked to the counter and took out a small object. She handed it to the manager of the pharmacy. “Can you pass this to your CEO Chu?”
The manager carefully took it. “May I know your name? Do you have any messages for us to pass on?”
“My surname is Gu. I don’t have any message… Just give it to him. Wait! Just say that I’m sorry for rejecting him for dinner. I apologize.”
She thought about how she owed Chu Junmo so many favors, especially the jade and longevity peach that was broken at her grandfather’s birthday banquet. It was rather precious, so she felt uneasy if she didn’t return it.
The manager carefully put the small item away. “Don’t worry, Miss Gu. I’ll definitely pass it on.”
Gu Qiqi nodded and turned to leave.
Gong Jue happened to enter the door and saw the small object clearly—it was a natural jade inkstone!
It was made from the mutton-fat jade that Gu Qiqi obtained at the stone gambling den. The raw material she cut out was the shape of an inkstone!
This kind of small jade item that was formed without polishing was quite expensive. It was worth several million.
This dumb woman actually gave another man such a thoughtful gift.
But he had never received any outstanding gifts!
Bullwhip! Was that even considered a gift?
Ambergris sachet!—Little Bei also had the same one.
What the hell was this?
Even Xiao Bei had more stones than him. Now, this man outside also had a unique stone. But what about him?
Where was the special present she gave him?
Although he had plenty of stones at home that could fill flower pots and use them as decorations, how could they be compared to the ones she had personally given him?
Gong Jue was extremely displeased!
Gu Qiqi turned around and saw his face.
“Why are you here?” The woman clearly did not realize that the storm was about to burst.
Gong Jue’s eyes darkened. “I’m here to… buy condoms!!!”
