The Consequence of Provoking a Crazy Beauty [GL]

Chapter 117

The two stared at each other, successfully attracting the attention of Huo Junxian and Qi Yuanhan.

First, Huo Junxian looked at Ye Qinghe, and Qi Yuanhan looked at Gu Siyu. Finally, they both retracted their gazes and looked at the person next to them.    (Note: I'm screaming at the top of my lungs 🤣. Jealous girlfriends are scary.)

It was bound to be awkward when the four met. Gu Siyu recovered quickly. Under the pressure, she walked past the stares and said, "Grandpa."

Then she looked at Huo Junxian and introduced her, "Isn't she beautiful?"

She spoke with a bit of pride, and the old man nodded in agreement.

The old man smiled at her and raised his hand to the butler beside him, saying, "Everyone is here, set up the table and let's eat."

"Alright." The butler went to set up the table in the dining room.

The four of them stood by the old man, talking to him, now all feeling a bit awkward.

Huo Junxian whispered to Gu Siyu, "I understand why you don't fit in here. The atmosphere is indeed strange."

It's not exactly strange...

Gu Siyu now had an idea: as long as she didn't speak, everything would be fine.

A maid brought over some juice and red wine. Huo Junxian asked Gu Siyu what she wanted, and Gu Siyu asked for juice. Huo Junxian handed her a glass.

When Qi Yuanhan was about to take a glass, Ye Qinghe tactically retreated. She pushed the old man's wheelchair and said, "I'll push Grandpa over first."

Huo Junxian raised her glass to Qi Yuanhan, who returned a smile. The two of them acted quite harmoniously. This was because they had cooperated before and had similar experiences. Before being with Ye Qinghe, Qi Yuanhan had also been married. However, Qi Yuanhan wasn't as fortunate as Huo Junxian. Her parents passed away early and entrusted her to their good friend. Unfortunately, all the family's money was swindled away by that friend. She had no choice but to marry her ex-husband, enduring years of hardship before finally making a decisive move.

In a way, they sympathized with each other. Later, Huo Junxian asked Gu Siyu to manage the company and collaborated with Qi Yuanhan a few times.

Gu Siyu stood nearby, feeling prickly all over, and instinctively tugged at Huo Junxian to stop her from talking too much with Qi Yuanhan.

Huo Junxian tilted her head and looked at her with puzzled eyes, "What's wrong?"

"Try not to get involved with them," Gu Siyu said.

Huo Junxian didn't quite understand, "Aren't you and Ye Qinghe good frie—"

"Ahem." Gu Siyu interrupted her, "That was before, in the past."

"...Oh." Huo Junxian barely understood and then looked over at Ye Qinghe, who was squatting beside the old man talking, "You were friends before."

"Weren't you childhood friends?" Qi Yuanhan asked.

"Uh..." Gu Siyu tilted her head slightly. How did this woman have such good hearing? She gritted her teeth and said, "I was childhood friends with her sister..."

"Oh, her sister..." Huo Junxian picked up on this.

"Right, her sister," Gu Siyu said seriously. She slightly turned her head, feeling that it would have been better not to say anything since now several people were looking at her.

"Who are you calling?"

Someone asked this, and Gu Siyu didn't immediately recognize who it was. Anxiously, she went deaf for a moment. She looked at Huo Junxian first. Huo Junxian was drinking grape juice, which seemed a bit sour, as she frowned.
