Huo Jingjing's originally smug expression suddenly turned ugly. She yelled at the top of her lungs, "What did you say? If you have the guts, say it again!
"How dare you?
"How dare you?"
"I said..." Gu Ruochu's eyes were ice cold. "You're the daughter of a mistress!"
"You!" A malicious light flashed across Huo Jingjing's eyes. She reached out her hand to slap her but Gu Ruochu held her hand. She could not move.
There was no way she could lay a hand on her.
Huo Jingjing was angry and anxious. Suddenly, she had an idea and a malicious light flashed in her eyes.
"Gu Ruochu, who do you think asked me to bid on this piece of land today? Your sister wants this piece of land and my brother didn't have much time to spend with her, he asked me to do it for her."
'Huo Nanchen?'
Her heart sank. It felt as if everyone liked Gu Yanwei and despised her. Even Huo Nanchen.
Gu Ruochu glanced at Gu Yanwei and sneered, "Do you really want the title of Madam Huo so much? The more you fight me for it, the more I will resist. I will be the only Mrs. Huo. It will only me, Gu Ruochu!"
Gu Yanwei's expression froze. She stared at Gu Ruochu's sinister smile as if a cold wind had blown past her back.
"Are you shameless? My brother doesn't love you at all!" Huo Jingjing shouted angrily.
"Retard."
Gu Ruochu coldly spat out the insult and left with Rong Xiao. Huo Jingjing was so angry that she disregarded her image and stepped forward to continue the confrontation.
Gu Yanwei quickly pulled her back and comforted her in a low voice. "Why are you arguing with her? She will only lower your status as the Huo family's daughter. There are other ways to destroy her reputation."
Huo Jingjing's anger had yet to subside as she said angrily, "I just can't take this lying down. You're too considerate of others. Why are you afraid of that b * tch? Tear her apart and I'll protect you!"
"Take a look."
Gu Yanwei handed her phone over. Huo Jingjing saw a few pictures that Gu Yanwei had just taken. Rong Xiao and Gu Ruochu looked flirtatious in the photos.
Huo Jingjing was immediately excited. "I want to show these photos to my father. If my father finds out that she is hooking up with another man, he will definitely be so angry that his nose will go crooked!"
Gu Yanwei quickly stopped her. "Jingjing, there's no hurry on the Huo family's side. After this auction, the press will buy the photos and the news will spread to all mainstream media outlets. By tomorrow, the headlines will be all over the news. It will be a good show to watch."
Having a dispute with her sister-in-law in public and having an ambiguous relationship with another man in public was enough to destroy Gu Ruochu's reputation.
Gu Yanwei thought of this as a faint smile appeared on her face.
Seeing how thoughtful Gu Yanwei was, Huo Jingjing's expression turned brighter. "Sister Yanwei, you should have done this a long time ago. You have to be ruthless when dealing with women like this. Otherwise, I'll be bullied to death."
"As long as you're on my side, I'm not afraid."
"..."
As soon as Gu Ruochu left, she walked straight to her car.
"Wait for me." Rong Xiao quickly followed her and asked curiously, "Where do you plan on going?"
"Where?" Gu Ruochu scoffed, "I'm going to find Huo Nanchen and ask about his plans with that piece of land. Is he planning to take advantage of me?"
She didn't know what his intentions were after he had asked Huo Jingjing to bid for the piece of land against her.
On hearing Huo Nanchen's name, Rong Xiao was immediately terrified. "Then go find your husband by yourself. I'll get Yichen to come pick me up."
To him, Huo Nanchen was a high and mighty figure, and he wanted nothing to do with him. He had an encounter with him a long time ago, and it still left a shadow on him.
