“The ‘Four Sons Offering Up Mystical Peaches’ painting. Have you given it to your grandmother yet?”
The big-chested pretty girl let out a small cry but quickly covered up her mouth.
She stared at Gu Shishi in disbelief.
Gu Shishi’s lips curved up and she reached out her hand.
“It’s very nice to meet you, MeowMeow.”
“You, you you….”
The big-chested pretty girl couldn’t even say anything sensible.
Gu..gu… gu… Guru…. No, Master…. ?!
Gu Shishi smiled and said, “Let me introduce myself. You might know me already. Yes, I am the one you called took-away-someone-else’s-parents-and-chased-away-Zhang-ma and evil Gu Shishi.”
The big-chested pretty girl continued to cover her mouth as she took a step backward with her cheeks beet red.
The ink painting guru who had first drawn her Orange Tabby and now the celebratory painting was…. Gu Shishi?!
The one that Pingting had contacted her to make fun of at the banquet? That Gu Shishi?
How could that be?
How could there be such a coincidence?
She had just heard that as soon as Gu Shishi arrived at the banquet venue, she had made Wushuang fall ill. And, Wushuang had to rush to the hospital and couldn’t even attend the celebratory banquet.
She had planned to avenge her friend and picked a fight with Gu Shishi.
But… she’s the same one as the guru?!
Chen Kexin’s face changed colors.
Guru’s strokes in her ink painting were so smooth and natural, and the artistic conception was impeccable.
In her mind, the oil painting guru was someone out of this world.
In fact, she was above everything worldly and spit on money like it was dirty; she didn’t even care about the $10,000 red packet that she had offered her.
The Gu’s were well off, but would the oil painting guru fight right over the inheritance with Wushuang?
She bullied the fragile Wushaung and even chased away their old servant because of some minor conflict?
How was that possible?
All these thoughts raced through Chen Kexin’s mind in the matter of seconds.
The more she thought about it, the less it made any sense!
All the words that she had wanted to confront her with, she couldn’t force any of them out.
“Chen… Chen Kexin… is my name.”
Finally, it turned into a self-introduction.
“Mm.” Gu Shishi smiled and nodded. “If I am guessing it correctly, you are the Miss of the Chen’s? Wushaung told me you were the one who invited me here today and that you wanted to meet me.”
Chen Kexin blushed immediately. Her purpose wasn’t really wanting to meet Gu Shishi.
She had just graduated and returned from overseas and immediately heard from Pingting that Uncle Gu found their biological daughter, Gu Shishi. But, that peasant girl wanted to kick out their good friend Wushuang so she could have all the inheritance.
She was so upset after she heard that.
Pingting then suggested for her to invite Gu Shishi to the banquet and that’s where they’d show her what was upper class and the difference between them and her.
She has taken that on righteously.
Their plan was to isolate and ignore Gu Shishi today and let Gu Shishi learn she was not a guest that was welcomed by the host. And that she was not welcomed in their circle!
“Ugh…”
Thinking of that, Chen Kexin’s ears started to burn again.
She had thanked her profusely on WeChat the last couple of days. She even watched her live streaming two more times and boasted about her painting skills.
But, somehow, she turned out to be Gu Shishi, the one she had invited over and was also the target of their plot!
Chen Kexin felt that she saw blackness in front of her eyes.
This must be a joke from some supernatural powers….
She was going to make fun of the person that she was just boasting about the day before.
Wasn’t that the same as slapping her own face?
“I…I need to greet another friend. Pardon me!”
Chen Kexin was confused and had no idea how she should interact with Gu Shishi.
Gu Shishi’s lips curved upward.
“Sure, I’ll look for you in a bit.”
Chen Kexin almost slipped on the floor. Why did Gu Shishi need to look for her later?!
