Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Dodge

When Xu Ling heard these harsh words, she wanted nothing more than to faint.

"Pervert... Lunatic!"

With those kicks, Xu Ling's child would definitely die.

Gu Ruochu considered that as her revenge.

Xu Ling knew that she would lose the child. She let out a shrill scream and looked at her attacker disbelief. "You... you devil..."

After settling that old grudge, Gu Ruochu quickly left the room. She was no longer the high and mighty successor of the arms dealer, Bai Qi. Instead, she was Gu Ruochu, who had nothing and had to compromise in the Huo family.

She had to preserve her power and slowly take her place.

Soon, the Bai Family would be alerted by the commotion.

After Gu Ruochu went downstairs, she saw that people had gathered in all directions and there was nowhere to run. Gu Ruochu felt that her body was weak.

However, she did not regret what she had done. She had tolerated Xu Ling for two years. Even if she had to risk her life, she would make this b * tch's life a living hell.

Gu Ruochu quickly entered the elevator. She pressed a button to a random floor and took out some decorations from her bag. When she reached the 22nd floor, she walked out unhurriedly.

Gu Ruochu was familiar with the hotel and knew which exit was closer. She had just taken a few steps when she suddenly saw a few women walking towards her. They were talking and laughing as their fragrance wafted through the air.

Gu Ruochu did not look out of place. However, she still attracted one woman's attention. The woman hesitated as she looked at her. Just as Gu Ruochu passed by, she suddenly asked, "Gu Ruochu, is that you?"

Gu Ruochu paused when she heard someone calling her name. Did she just happen to bump into someone she knew?

Just as Gu Ruochu thought about an appropriate reaction, the woman walked up to her and said, "A few days ago, we asked your sister to inform about the class reunion. Your sister said that you couldn't come because you had an errand to run. We missed you at the reunion."

Zhu Li had not seen Gu Ruochu for many years. They did not have a good relationship in the past but were acquainted with each other. Gu Ruochu was the school belle back then, so she had a good impression of her.

A class reunion? Gu Yanwei had said that she did not have time. However, she had mentioned nothing about the class reunion. All right!

'Let see what Gu Yanwei is up to!' Gu Ruochu had caught on to two important points. Gu Yanwei did not want her to come to this class reunion, but she herself had insisted on attending.

She wanted to find out more about her sister's intentions.

"I didn't have time at first, but I had some free time today, so I came over."

"That's great, let's go in together."

Gu Ruochu's lips curled into a faint smile, the emotions in her eyes were unclear.

"..."

On the banquet hall on the top floor, the exquisite chandelier was glowing with a gentle glow as it gently sprinkled down. Layers of tall glasses were stacked on top of each other, and there were many exquisite and delicious desserts placed in between the rows of wine.

The men in attendance were dressed in elegant suits, while the women had gowns draped over their shoulders. There were greetings everywhere, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"The person who is doing the best now is probably Yanwei. Not only did she enter the Huo Corporation, but she also became the assistant to the Huo prince. Her monthly salary is now tens of thousands. Everyone is so envious!"

"Not at all, everyone is doing very well," Gu Yanwei replied modestly. Under the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd, the corners of her lips gradually curled up.

Li Xuefei could not help but add, "Yanwei is different from us now. She's beautiful and capable. Maybe she'll even marry into a rich family. After all, she can get along with Huo Nanchen day and night. Maybe love will develop over time."
