Chapter 2076: Chapter 2078: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi 79
This woman, could she like Fu Yi?!
She knew better than anyone how outstanding that man was, and quite a number of wealthy beauties in Capital City had secretly admired him, with some even coming to her about it.
This woman had been acting strange from the start, not wanting her help to introduce, yet insisting she drank this glass of water, persistently asking about her relationship, probably a pursuer nine times out of ten.
Her face suddenly turned cold, and she rolled her eyes at Jiang Nuan, her attitude souring, "I said, when a man gives a woman an expensive gift for her birthday, what do you say their relationship is? Surely that woman can’t be his mom!"
Great insult!
"So, you’re a couple?"
"I didn’t say that, you can think of me as his mom!" Gu Qing wasn’t so foolish as to admit it.
She always used a Tai Chi approach with rivals who came to confront her, saying nothing while making others back off!
"Sister, you look young, listen to my advice, your life is long and there’s no need to hang yourself over an impossible man. We’ve known each other for 6 years, what do you think you have to compare with me? You could spend 6 years on him, but while you’re spending that time, so am I, and you’ll still lose to me. Some things don’t work just because you try hard, a step behind is still a step behind, people can never catch up with time!"
Jiang Nuan was taken aback, amusingly listening to her spout this logic, her almond eyes clear like mirrors, discerningly examining her, "Before advising me, Miss Gu, shouldn’t you ask me who I am? Do you not want me to introduce myself?"
Gu Qing suddenly felt a panic, sensing something was off, averting her gaze, "Who are you?"
She finally asked! Jiang Nuan leisurely sat up straight, smiled slightly, and extended her hand, "Hi, I’m Jiang Nuan, Fu Yi’s wife who hasn’t divorced yet, nice to meet you."
Gu Qing’s face turned white as a sheet.
Jiang Nuan felt obliged to be magnanimous like the first wife of a prominent ancient family, so even though her arm was growing numb, she didn’t withdraw her hand.
"Miss Gu?"
"Ah?" Gu Qing, flustered and eager to bolt, found the situation unbearably awkward. She never imagined Jiang Nuan would be that person, her heart raced, uncomfortable, "I, I didn’t know..."
She didn’t know Jiang Nuan was that person, had she known, she wouldn’t have spoken so carelessly. She wished she could bite her tongue off, regretting it deeply.
"You..."
She wanted to ask Jiang Nuan what she intended but didn’t have the nerve.
It was Jiang Nuan who, with a smile, raised her eyebrows and winked at her, "Not even a handshake? My hand’s going numb."
Gu Qing hesitated for a long while before slowly lifting her hand for a shake.
As a self-named ’the other woman’, her expression was extremely awkward. She withdrew her hand as soon as possible, wishing she could disappear into a hole!
"Well, Miss Jiang, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going, I have an evening banquet to attend, and there’s not much time left." Just after retrieving her hand, she hastily concocted an excuse to escape.
Jiang Nuan looked at her with her dark eyes, "Aren’t you going to have your facial at Anbliy?"
Gu Qing’s whole body stiffened, forcing a smile that looked worse than crying, "I’m in a hurry, won’t be doing it today."
Jiang Nuan wouldn’t let her go, "Since you’re already here, you drank water with me too. I promised that as long as you came for a cup of coffee, I’d give the person to you, I stick to my word! Even the earliest banquets start at six, it’s only three, there’s time, your plain water hasn’t even come yet."
