Huo Zijun looked at Gu Ruochu's reaction and quickly understood what was going on. He quietly winked at Gu Ruochu and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, your love rival has come knocking on your door. You'd better hurry and prepare a response."
Gu Ruochu looked at him and whispered, "You mean, I need to be well-prepared before I can defeat her?"
Huo Zijun heard her tone and felt a sense of arrogance.
F * ck. Was this still his cowardly sister-in-law of his?
"Sister-in-law, don't tell me you've become a fool after you were hospitalized?" Huo Zijun's eyes were filled with sympathy. "Gu Yanwei's reputation in our circle can't be compared to the daughters of other prestigious families. Even my father praised her for her intelligence, ability, and business acumen. She is capable and scheming. You're weak compared to her."
Huo Zijun gestured with his hand as he said this.
"If the company didn't hire her, would she display her skills in the workplace at her age?" Gu Ruochu raised her brows and analyzed the situation carefully. "She came from a third-rate university. Even if she endured for a few years, she wouldn't even rise to the position of director. Besides, can Gu Yanwei really handle such power?"
"You sound a little too jealous. Don't forget, your sister was the center of attention at the celebrity banquet. Her manners and speech are elegant and dignified, but as for you, you could make a fool of yourself by wearing a gown!" The disdain in Huo Zijun's eyes quickly disappeared. "However, it's not entirely your fault. Even I feel that she is a little difficult to deal with, let alone you."
Gu Ruochu's background was rather low, and it was difficult for her to grasp certain situations. However, she had already married into the Huo family, so she still had to represent the family on various occasions.
Mrs. Huo was helpless. She decided that she could only let her speak less and do more. Once when they had attended a fancy event, Gu Ruochu ended up with her skirt torn apart, attracting a lot of ridicule.
Of course, Gu Yanwei had a lot to do with Gu Ruochu's ugly behavior.
Huo Zijun moved closer and said sneakily, "Actually, as long as you conquer my brother, you won't have any problems."
"You really know how to plan for me." Gu Ruochu pursed her lips and glanced at him.
That was the truth. As long as she took care of Huo Nanchen and Mrs. Huo, no one could take her position in the family. Gu Ruochu's lips curled into a cold smile when she thought of Huo Nanchen's cold words. "I won't fall in love with you."
People like Huo Nanchen and Gu Ruochu did not fall in love.
As they spoke, Gu Yanwei and Zhou Yunxi came into the house. Zhou Yunxi frowned when she saw Gu Ruochu looking on. "What are you standing there for? Why aren't you helping your sister carry her things?"
Gu Ruochu did not move. "Mother, my sister has hands."
Her mother loved Gu Yanwei too much. She was only in her twenties. How could she tire of carrying her own suitcase? Gu Ruochu did not know that her previous host had been ordered around like an old mother before she had possessed her.
"What do you mean by this? Are you mocking me and your sister? Gu Ruochu, do you really think you're so great just because you've married into the Huo family? Are you really trying to be unreasonable in front of me? If your sister had not given you the title of Lady Huo, you would not have it. You owe your sister so much, yet you're only licking your face and enjoying yourself without thinking about how to repay your debt!"
Zhou Yunxi wouldn't have been so angry if Gu Ruochu had lowered her head and obeyed her as usual. Now that she saw that Gu Ruochu had rebelled against her, an evil fire flared up in her and she immediately reprimanded her.
