"Ugh, my head hurts so much." After a night of heavy drinking, Xiaotao finally woke up. She struggled to sit up and opened her eyes to see Gu Chenfei sitting opposite her, staring directly at her.
Xiaotao thought it was definitely not a good thing to see her as soon as she woke up.
She flopped back down, wishing it was all a dream. She wished she hadn't ended up here and that Gu Chenfei wasn't right in front of her.
Sure enough, some things were inevitable. She thought that having Gu Sisi with her yesterday would help her avoid a one - on - one meeting with Gu Chenfei.
Maybe after so long apart, Xiaotao had forgotten that Gu Chenfei, that devil, would never give up so easily.
Gu Chenfei loved to boss her around. From childhood to now, there were many things her parents didn't even say anything about, but Gu Chenfei always kept a tight rein on her. She even said Xiaotao had run away from home.
All Xiaotao did was not tell Gu Chenfei before she left. Did she really have to make such a big deal out of it?
Yes, Xiaotao was the younger sister Gu Chenfei was always talking about. Her real name was Gu Yangtao, not just Yangtao.
The more Xiaotao thought about it, the angrier she got. She simply pulled the quilt over her head.
"Give yourself three seconds to come out on your own." Gu Chenfei was never patient with Gu Yangtao.
"One"
"Two"
"Fine, fine, I'll come out, okay?" How annoying! She always knew how to threaten people, and no one could ever rein Gu Chenfei in.
This was what bothered Gu Yangtao the most. Gu Chenfei was just so lawless.
She wondered how much she wished someone could control Gu Chenfei. Or if only Gu Chenfei had someone she liked, then she wouldn't focus all her attention on Xiaotao and wouldn't always want to boss her around.
It was a pity. Gu Chenfei was so unfeeling. She probably didn't have anyone she liked. There were just a few people who only liked her for her looks and didn't know her true nature.
But Gu Yangtao believed that after people got to know Gu Chenfei's true self, she would end up alone for the rest of her life.
"You've really grown up, Gu Yangtao. Tell me, where did you go wrong?"
"I didn't do anything wrong. I just didn't tell you before I left. Why do you say I ran away from home? My parents knew I was moving out, and I got into Uncle's company on my own merits. Why are you being like this?"
Maybe it was because of the hangover. Xiaotao was already feeling so uncomfortable, and with Gu Chenfei's attitude, she couldn't help but pour out all her pent - up grievances.
But Xiaotao underestimated Gu Chenfei. After she almost roared out all these words, Gu Chenfei didn't react at all. She just sat there, as steady as a mountain.
This felt so bad. Xiaotao felt like a crazy person, roaring there while the other person remained unmoved.
"Are you done throwing your tantrum?" Only after Yangtao finally calmed down did Gu Chenfei speak again.
"What on earth do you want?"
"You... you, don't come over! Ah!" Seeing Gu Chenfei walking towards her step by step, Yangtao completely lost her cool.
"Am I that scary?"
Gu Chenfei looked at Yangtao and said softly.
Yangtao nodded like a pounding garlic. "Gu Chenfei, you really don't know how scary you are. From childhood to now, apart from you, have you ever seen me afraid of anyone else?"
"Well, it's normal for you to be afraid of me." Gu Chenfei looked at her with disdain, as if she was saying, You're just a coward, so stop talking nonsense.
Gu Yangtao buried her head and secretly complained. She didn't even need to look at Gu Chenfei's expression. She knew it wouldn't be a good one.
"By the way, what did you call me?" Gu Chenfei gave Gu Yangtao a sidelong glance.
"E... eldest sister, eldest sister. Is that okay? Please let me go." Gu Yangtao felt like she was about to cry. How could she have such a sister?
"Okay, that's better. Now that you're done throwing your tantrum, tell me where you went wrong."
Gu Yangtao felt like she was going crazy. Aaaaaaaaaa! She still couldn't avoid this question.
It seemed that Gu Chenfei wasn't going to let her off the hook. She had tried to dodge the main issue and throw a tantrum, thinking she could distract Gu Chenfei.
But she didn't expect this woman to be so persistent. Sigh, Gu Yangtao really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh. What a mess!
She should have known better than to drink so much last night. Although whether Gu Chenfei caught up with her had nothing to do with her drinking, if she hadn't drunk, at least she wouldn't have to face this devil with a splitting headache.
Thinking about it, Gu Yangtao glared at Gu Chenfei hatefully. She decided to just let it go. Since things were already like this, she'd rather die than admit it. Gu Chenfei couldn't do anything to her.
So Gu Yangtao stuck out her neck, looking like she was going to face execution bravely. "I don't care. I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I tell you where I went wrong? If you know, why don't you tell me?"
"Do you think I'm joking with you? Do you really think I don't know anything, Gu Xiaotao?" Gu Chenfei exuded a powerful aura. She seemed really angry.
Gu Yangtao was startled. It wasn't that she had never seen Gu Chenfei like this, but she just couldn't get used to how quickly she could turn angry.
And then Gu Yangtao realized that Gu Chenfei had just called her Gu Xiaotao. Whenever Gu Chenfei called her that, it meant she was extremely angry with her.
Oh no, oh no!
Alarm bells went off in Gu Yangtao's head. Now she had completely angered Gu Chenfei. This woman was not a normal person on a regular day, and when she got angry, she was even worse.
Under Gu Chenfei's scrutinizing gaze, Gu Yangtao couldn't hold on anymore.
"Fine, fine. What do you want me to say?"
"Do I need to remind you? Gu Sisi. What's going on? I need an explanation. You know my patience is limited."
What do you mean your patience is limited? You've never had any patience with me! Gu Yangtao complained silently in her heart.
"So what if it was me? I was the one who told her your contact information, but it was you who wanted to see her. You can't blame me for this."
Gu Yangtao defended herself weakly. She knew it was useless against Gu Chenfei. Gu Chenfei didn't buy this at all.
"I really didn't expect my dear younger sister to be so capable." Gu Chenfei looked at Gu Yangtao with a sinister smile.
Wait a minute. Gu Yangtao suddenly felt that something was off. It seemed like Gu Chenfei didn't know about this before and was just trying to trick her.
Looking at Gu Chenfei's expression, Gu Yangtao more or less understood. This woman must have had no evidence before, just guessed randomly, and then deliberately set a trap to deceive her.
Gu Chenfei had done this kind of thing before. Gu Yangtao was deflated. She should have guessed earlier. Gu Chenfei was such a shameless person. On the surface, she was like a goddess and many people liked her, but in fact, she was just shameless.
She had a really thick skin. Gu Yangtao had been tricked by her countless times since childhood. This Gu Chenfei's favorite thing was to see her make a fool of herself. Come to think of it, over the years, only the fourth son of the Huo family had ever managed to foil Gu Chenfei's plans.
