Chapter 368: My Darling Gu Zi
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Aunt Wang’s husband hastily chimed in, “Indeed, indeed. She is like a flower in our courtyard. I wonder who will be fortunate enough to bring this flower home. They would be truly blessed.”
He thought to himself how well she matched his son in age. If Gong Xin could become his daughter-in-law, the mere thought made him ecstatic.
However, Gu Zi found Wang and his wife’s flattery amusing. She glanced at her friend Gong Xin, whose face was particularly unpleasant at the moment, and couldn’t help but laugh.
Unbeknownst to Wang and his wife, they were stepping on Gong Xin’s toes with their flattery. Gong Xin despised being referred to as a flower, a pretty but useless thing.
Miss Gong had always strived to prove her independence. She would never willingly be a mere flower. Their dreams of plucking this flower were utterly absurd.
Aunt Wang noticed Gu Zit s mocking smile and frowned, “Gu Zi, why are you still here? What are you laughing at? Don’t you know that Xin Xin doesn’t like seeing you? You should leave.”
Ignoring her, Gu Zi looked at Gong Xin. Her pitiful eyes melted Gong Xin’s heart. Who said she didn’t like seeing Gu Zi?
Annoyed, Gong Xin retorted, “If my Gu Zi wants to laugh, she’ll laugh. What’s it to you? What are you doing here? How dare you speak of my Gu Zi like that?
Who do you think you are? Who are you calling a flower? Dare to say it again?”
Gong Xin’s eyebrows furrowed, her tone clearly impatient. Wang and his wife blanched at her words, especially when she referred to Gu Zi as “my Gu Zi.” Wang’s wife was particularly upset. When had Gu Zi become Gong Xin’s darling?
Just as she was about to retort, the elevator doors opened. Gong Xin led Gu Zi inside, pressing the close door button, “I don’t want to share a ride with you. You can wait for the next one.” Wang and his wife were left standing outside the elevator, their faces blank with surprise.
