Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 924: Lesson (Part 4)

"If it’s troublesome, I can go back, or not participate in this work," Gu Lingling said.

"No need." Meng Qinghao shook his head helplessly.

His mother’s demands were simply unreasonable; he couldn’t jeopardize important matters just to appease his mother.

Besides, he had arranged this with Gu Lingling months ago; it wouldn’t make sense to send her back just because of a few words from his mother. Meng Qinghao couldn’t do such a thing.

Meng Qinghao might not do it, but Su Rumei certainly could.

"You better leave quickly." She managed to find Gu Lingling, "This isn’t a place you should be. It wouldn’t be good for Mr. Su if word got out."

Gu Lingling pursed her lips and watched her, smiling.

She wanted to see what other nonsense Su Rumei could make up.

A foreign guest cocktail party, at a national level, and she was just there to help as a temporary translator. How would this negatively impact Mr. Su?

What’s more, her identity hadn’t even been made public yet, so what impact could it have on Mr. Su?

If there was any impact, it should be on her as the adopted daughter.

"You... what’s with your attitude?" Seeing Gu Lingling ignoring her, Su Rumei said angrily, "I am your aunt after all."

"Sorry, my grandmother only had one daughter, my mom." Aunt? What is that? Sorry, ever since she learned what she did to Mr. Su, she only felt disgust towards this woman.

Human greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.

No matter what, Mr. Su raised her for so many years, she could actually harm her benefactor just for her own selfish reasons?

That can’t be called heartless.

That’s simply worse than an animal.

"You..." Su Rumei laughed angrily, "Very well, finally no need to pretend to be sweet anymore, this is the real you, isn’t it?"

"Same words back to you," Gu Lingling said with a smile, "I thought you’d offer me another bracelet when you saw me."

"Today’s bracelet is quite nice too." Gu Lingling looked at the bracelet on her hand with a faint smile, if she wasn’t mistaken, this should be a bracelet with a foreign leopard, quite valuable.

Su Rumei instinctively hid her hand, looking at Gu Lingling, "Humph..."

Then she turned and left.

No way, there’s no way this village girl could recognize the origin of her bracelet.

Su Rumei turned to glance at the departing Gu Lingling, just a country girl, no need to scare herself.

But a country girl dared to teach her a lesson?

If she doesn’t teach her a lesson, she wouldn’t be Su Rumei, being the Deputy Minister of Health all these years wouldn’t be for nothing.

Su Rumei watched her silhouette, coldly smiling at the corner of her mouth.

She glanced around, then headed upstairs.

In an upstairs VIP lounge, a man saw her approaching and said, "Why do you look upset?"

"I just saw that brat and got lectured," Su Rumei said through gritted teeth.

"Revenge?" The man laughed and shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Su Rumei asked curiously, "Is there something happening there?"

"Tonight, Mr. Tian from the Tian Family will also attend this banquet." The man sipped a glass of red wine.

As for whether anything will happen, it depends on whether Uncle Tao over there can hold back.

Though he thinks he won’t be able to.

Su Rumei was quite curious.

She wanted to ask more, but saw the man stand up, watching downstairs, not knowing what he was thinking?

Su Rumei felt a bit uneasy about going up.
