Chapter 546: Cooperating With Huang Yue
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xiang Li’s words did not comfort Huang Yue. Instead, it made her expression even stiffer. Huang Yue forced a smile, but she was complaining in her heart.
What did she mean? It was fine if she did not comfort her, but did she also think that she could not compare to Gu Man? How could someone like Gu Man be compared to her?
Huang Yue gritted her teeth and took a deep breath. She tried her best to adjust her emotions. She looked at Xiang Li with a smile and led her to the center of the banquet hall.
There was a microphone in the middle of the banquet. Huang Yue smiled and kept comforting herself that her status was enough to surpass Gu Man. There was nothing to feel inferior about.
Because the light was always following Huang Yue, any action of hers could easily attract the attention of others.
Gu Man put the wine glass in her hand aside and realized that the dress of the woman standing on the stage was somewhat similar to the color of her clothes. However, one was royal blue and the other was light blue.
She did not take this person to heart, nor did she notice that Xiang Yin’s eyes had darkened.
“Why did you suddenly think of attending such a banquet?” Gu Man reached out and placed her hand by her mouth. She yawned, her eyes revealing exhaustion.
It was almost time for the college entrance examination. The school was getting stricter and stricter. They were not even allowed to sleep in class. Every time Gu Man lay on the table, the Year Head would immediately appear in front of the classroom and wake her up. Gu Man even suspected that the Year Head had installed a camera on her.
“Didn’t you rest well?” Xiang Yin selectively ignored the question. He naturally had his own thoughts for bringing Gu Man here. Why would he tell her?
“A little.” As she spoke, Gu Man yawned again and narrowed her eyes.
“We’ll go back later.” Xiang Yin’s eyes were doting.
Huang Yue naturally saw the two of them acting as if no one was around, causing her emotions, which had finally stabilized, to fluctuate again. She hurriedly finished her speech and left the stage. She was supposed to be in the limelight today, but because of Gu Man, she was embarrassed.
Before Huang Yue left the stage, she glared fiercely at Gu Man. Her gaze was obscure and not many people saw her, but Zhong Yao and Gu Rou happened to see her.
When Gu Rou saw this scene, her eyes darted around and a smile appeared on her lips. She patted Zhang Yue beside her. “Brother Zhang, 1 want to play with a friend.”
Zhang Yue looked a little dazed. He looked in Gu Man’s direction. Because of Gu Ron’s words, he suddenly came back to his senses. “Huh?”
“I want to play with my friends.” Gu Ron’s expression changed, and her tone was not as nice as before.
However, Zhang Yue looked distracted and nodded casually, not noticing any of this.
The smile on Gu Ron’s face was a little forced. She could not be bothered to say goodbye and turned to leave.
She deliberately observed Huang Yue’s direction, adjusted her expression, and walked over.
Zhong Yao had the same goal as Gu Rou.
Zhong Yao had been choosing among the boys for a long time but could not find one that suited her taste. When she saw Huang Yue, her mind suddenly cleared up.
Her backer did not need to be a man, a woman was fine. Besides, they had a common enemy.
Just as Zhong Yao was about to walk over, she saw the restless Gu Rou. She stopped in her tracks and hesitated.
If Gu Rou had the same thoughts as her, as long as she walked over today, she would definitely have no status in the Gu family in the future.
However, Zhong Yao was especially indignant. She still decided to follow and see if there was a chance.
Gu Rou came in front of Huang Yue and hit on her with a smile. “Hello, you must be Miss Huang. I’m Gu Rou.”
Huang Yue was about to impatiently miss Gu Rou, but she was stunned on the spot when she heard her name. She remembered that this person was on Gu Man’s resume. She seemed to be her sister.
Huang Yue, who was about to leave, immediately stopped in her tracks and looked at Gu Rou with interest. “I’ve heard of Miss Gu’s name.. Why are you looking for me?”
