The three of them looked at each other and, after making sure there was no one around, finally started talking.
"I was so enraged today, every time I see Gu Xiaoer's face, I just want to scratch it up. Why does all the good fortune fall into her lap?" one of the girls muttered, her voice low but unable to hide the trembling and fury that enveloped her.
The girl sitting next to her gently patted her shoulder with an equally sharp tone, "Come on, Guo Ting, I too would love to destroy that face. But now is not the time, be patient and stay cool."
"Cong Sheng, I even lashed out at Gu Xiaoer today, but she still put on that noble and innocent act, she's blatantly showing off on purpose!" Guo Ting griped, clenching the hand on her shoulder with resentment.
"Tingting, don't act rashly! Gu Xiaoer is not as simple as she appears to you. Calm down, we still have our next plan," the other girl advised.
"Right, right, right, thank you, Cong Sheng, I really lost my cool today because of her," Guo Ting said.
"Tingting, no need to thank me. As long as you remember that our common enemy is Gu Xiaoer, that's enough," Gu Congsheng withdrew her hand from Guo Ting's grasp, denying any closer contact, and pressed her lips together while tucking a lock of hair behind her ear.
Guo Ting caught a glimpse, almost by accident, of the girl next to her tucking in her hair, revealing a terrifying scar on her delicate side face. Reflexively, she shrank back and jumped in fright.
She immediately felt it was impolite and quickly turned her head away, apologizing.
At that moment, a man sitting opposite them, with a careless demeanor, also tipped his hat and spoke without much concern, "Sis, that Gu... what's-her-name, do you really need to go this far against Gu Xiaoer? I don't think she's as annoying as you guys make her out to be!"
The one speaking was none other than Guo Yuhao, the one who had confessed his feelings to Gu Xiaoer. Guo Yuhao couldn't help but remember the girl he saw yesterday at noon, with her delicate and pretty little face, her dazed and adorable look, all over exuding cuteness, even her way of rejecting him was adorably straightforward.
The confession was a farce, getting money from his cousin was real. Why else would his cousin have an issue with that girl and insist he mess with her? Since he was short on cash, he took the advantage and went to confess right away.
"Hmph, if you liked her so much, why couldn't you win her over? In her eyes, aren't you just useless!" Guo Ting coldly glared at her worldly-wise cousin who only ever knew to ask her for money, money, money.
"Alright, alright, don't bring up that sore subject, I had no idea her standards were that high!" Regardless of the reason, being rejected is always an unpleasant feeling.
Guo Ting knocked on his head, "It's not that she has high standards, it's that she already has a man like that!"
"What the heck, and you guys still had me go confess to her, that was just nonsense, no one would agree to that! By the way, those twenty-odd people in the afternoon were arranged by you guys too, right? The collective confession has spread all over the school!" Guo Yuhao really didn't understand what his cousin was thinking.
Without admitting or denying, Guo Ting snorted, "The confession was the first step, to destroy her reputation. All that godfather talk, and gold-digger label, I hope these rumors reach Shenghan Group, let's see if they'll continue to support Gu Xiaoer then!"
The more Guo Yuhao heard, the more shocked he became. They say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, but looking at his cousin showed just how true that was. What kind of grudge was this, to want to ruin a girl like that?
Gu Congsheng also interjected at the right time, "Tingting, the next step is even more crucial. You must find a way to spread these rumors to Shenghan, got it? I've already inquired, the President of Shenghan dislikes gossip immensely, such talk will definitely incite his wrath!"
"Sure, rest assured, Cong Sheng!" Guo Ting patted a document folder in her hand, her smile revealing a determination to achieve her goal, "Look, the principal just asked me to deliver documents to Shenghan today, I'll definitely seize the opportunity..."
