Bai Weijin looked at the magnificent villa in front of her and couldn’t help sighing deeply. “Should I help Gu Yeyu?”
This villa was exactly the house of Li Wu, Xiang’s fiancée.
After thinking for a few seconds, Bai Weijin made up her mind. ‘Gu Yeyu won’t give up anyway, if I don’t help her. And the situation may get worse.’
“Ding! Ding!” Bai Weijin rang the doorbell. A maid-like woman came out.
“Who are you looking for, Miss?” The maid bowed and asked.
“I’m Bai Weijin, Gu Yeze’s wife.” Bai Weijin said solemnly, “I want to talk to Miss Li.”
Hearing Bai Weijin’s name, the maid instantly looked a little odd. But she still respectfully welcomed Bai Weijin to come in.
What brought Mrs. Gu here?
Staring at the beautiful woman who was sitting in the living room, Bai Weijin felt somewhat embarrassed. After all, Bai Weijin had to request her for such an embarrassing thing when they met for the first time.
“What did Mrs. Gu come for?” asked Li Wu with a gentle expression.
“Well.” Bai Weijin paused and then said, “I heard that Miss Li is about to get married. I wonder whether you have chosen your bridesmaid?”
‘That’s why you came all the way here?” Li Wu raised her eyebrows without answering Bai Weijin’s question, and asked, “Does Mrs. Gu have any suggestions for the candidate?”
“My sister is very interested to be your bridesmaid.”
As soon as Bai Weijin stopped, Gu Yeyu’s face appeared in Li Wu’s mind. Li Wu clenched her teacup involuntarily.
‘The feud between me and Gu Yeyu was not built in a day. How dare she want to be my bridesmaid? Bah!’
Although Li Wu had scolded Gu Yeyu hundreds of times in her heart, she still behaved politely.
“I’m really sorry.” said Li Wu with regret, “I have already chosen my bridesmaid. I’m really sorry to let Mrs. Gu come here for nothing.”
It was not beyond expectation. Bai Weijin actually breathed a sigh of relief. If the plan didn’t work, Gu Yeyu might want to give up.
“But, for Mrs. Gu’s sake, this matter is still open to discussion.” Li Wu said with a hesitant look.
“Please go back early and wait for our news, Mrs. Gu.”
This was just one of their usual methods used in business circle. ‘Give others hope and then deprive it.’
It was fun, wasn’t it?
“Well, thank you.” Bai Weijin said, and left the villa of Li family. As Bai Weijin walked through the garden, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure and stopped unconsciously.
Was it… Tan Xin?
Bai Weijin didn’t see it clearly. Just as she was going to look further, the maid stopped her.
“Mrs. Gu, what are you looking for? The gate is over there.” Then the maid made a gesture of “please” towards the gate.
It was obvious that the maid was seeing Bai Weijin out.
‘Forget it, how can Tan Xin know Miss Li since she just came back from abroad? I must have thought too much.’
Bai Weijin restrained her inner anxiety and left Li’s villa.
Bai Weijin didn’t expect that her carelessness this time should have brought her irreparable consequences.
In Li’s villa, Li Wu, who had sent Bai Weijin away, returned to the small garden.
Li Wu clung to the coming person, rubbing her cheek against the latter intimately.
“Xin Xin.” Li Wu said coquettishly. “I finally drove the annoying woman away. Heck! You come back with great difficulty, and there are still some people bothering us.”
It was true. What Bai Weijin saw just now was not an illusion. It was Tan Xin.
So why was Tan Xin here?
That was a long story. Tan Xin and Li Wu were close friends before Tan Xin went abroad. So after she returned home, Tan Xin certainly needed to win the support of her old friends in order to regain her footing.
Not to mention the fact that Li family could rank among the top three in H City. How could Tan Xin let go of such a good chance?
Tan Xin touched Li Wu’s head indulgently and said softly, “It’s ok. She has gone.”
Then Tan Xin changed the topic.
“What did Bai Weijin come to you for?”
Although Li Wu had some doubts about why Tan Xin would be interested in such things, she still explained it obediently.
“She came to recommend Gu Yeyu as my bridesmaid.”
‘Hmm? When did Bai Weijin become interested in such things?” Tan Xin’s eyes were full of doubts.
Li Wu seemed to see through Tan Xin’s thoughts and said, “Actually, it’s quite normal. Being a bridesmaid, you can get in touch with people from various well-known families. It is a good opportunity to expand influence.”
But, Bai Weijin wasn’t such a person at all. In other words, there was no need for Gu family to do such boring things with their huge influence.
Although Tan Xin didn’t agree with Li Wu’s opinion, she didn’t say anything. She directly changed the subject and started talking about the new bags this season.
After a while, it was already dark, and Tan Xin left Li’s villa.
Tan Xin’s eyes showed a sense of malice. She found an opportunity from the event just now. She took out her cell phone and made a phone call.
“Hello, please help me check a person.”
After a pause, Tan Xin continued, “All the information of Gu Yeyu. See whether she had any unusual behavior recently.”
Then was the busy tone, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Tan Xin’s mouth.
‘Bai Weijin, it’s best not to let me get something of you. Otherwise, I will make you die without a burial place.
Bai Weijin, who was driving, couldn’t help shuddering and frowned.
‘What’s going on? Is it because I haven’t paid attention to my body and caught a cold?’
Before Bai Weijin could think, her phone rang. She knew it was Gu Yeyu without checking the phone.
Bai Weijin had told Gu Yeyu the fact that Li Wu had refused. Bai Weijin just hoped that Gu Yeyu wouldn’t do anything stupid.
Seeing that Bai Weijin didn’t respond to her messages no matter what she sent, Gu Yeyu rubbed her head irritably. ‘What should I do? Does my plan come to an end before implementation?’
Gu Yeyu was frustrated.
Gu Yeyu didn’t know why Chu Jiran’s gentle smile suddenly popped up before her eyes, and she felt very warm in her heart.
‘No, I can’t give up!’
‘Jiran must be mine.’
