She had just started to speak and the devil's face immediately darkened.Gu Jiuci quivered in fear and, filled with a desire to live, she immediately began to explain wildly."I didn't know it would suddenly come so early, you..."The wild tempest that had raged in the man's deep eyes completely disappeared upon seeing her face that was wrinkled with remorse."If I had known earlier, I would have..."Before Gu Jiuci had finished speaking, the man abruptly turned off the bed light. The room suddenly went dark and cut off the rest of her words."Sleep."In the darkness, the man stretched out his long arm and accurately wrapped it around her waist, and pulled her into his warm chest.Gu Jiuci's heart once again began to thud wildly. The two of them were pressed tightly together and she clearly felt the temperature under the blanket plummet to below zero. Immediately after, the sound of grinding teeth came from above her head.Pettily, Gu Jiuci pretended to be ignorant and huddled
While she was at home on the weekend, Gu Jiuci had already come up with a plan to apologize to Si Chen. Just as the devil had said she would refuse to give up, and furthermore... thicken her skin even more."You..."Si Chen immediately looked around. As expected, everyone's eyes were centered on them. She wanted to stubbornly walk away, but her body made the honest choice and accepted the cake from Gu Jiuci's hands."Even if I eat your cake... it... doesn't mean I've completely forgiven you!" Si "too-proud-too-admit-defeat" Chen said awkwardly."I know, I know. You've already forgiven me 50%. I'll work even harder!"Without giving it any mind, Gu Jiuci nodded with a smile.Si Chen immediately bristled."Who said it's 50%? It's clearly only...""Only how much?" Gu Jiuci immediately followed up with a question.Only now did Si Chen realize she had fallen into Gu Jiuci's verbal trap, but the words were already spoken and couldn't be taken back. She could only forge ahead and answ
Xu Yun'er saw Gu Jiuci's complete lack of understanding and was about to explode with anger."Ci, that's not what I mean. My point is that you've already broken it off with Si Chen, and the damage is done. You should give up!""Why?"Gu Jiuci pretended to change her expression and stared meaningfully at Xu Yun'er."Cousin, I only have you as my friend in this school, isn't it too lonely? Didn't you teach me to make lots of friends in the past? Didn't you say that to make friends I'll need to give generous gifts and not care about a momentary offense that I would have to tolerate a friend's stubbornness? I'm doing as you said, why aren't you happy?""I said that in the past because..."Xu Yun'er's face was red from holding back her words. She had said all that earlier to lure Gu Jiuci into making bad friends, drinking friends so that she could conveniently tame her. She wanted Gu Jiuci to be generous so that she would pay for her, not so that Si Chen could take advantage!Gu Jiuc
"Miss Gu."At this time, Aunt Ming walked into the classroom with a lunch box. Gu Jiuci was confused. The devil had already put a hundred thousand onto her lunch card, why was Aunt Ming still coming?"Aunt Ming, why are you here today?""It's like this. The Young Master gave particular orders for me to make some blood-replenishing foods for you since your body is in a special condition today. This is the longan swallow's nest that I've simmered for three hours. Hurry and try it," Aunt Ming said in a warm voice as she stared at Gu Jiuci.To the side, Xu Yun'er heard Aunt Ming's words and saw the other's face, and she then felt that something was wrong. She immediately pretended to be concerned and went to take Gu Jiuci's hand."Ci, what's wrong? Did you get hurt somewhere? Or are you sick?"Gu Jiuci stretched out her hand to accept the bowl Aunt Ming was handing over and perfectly avoided Xu Yun'er's claws.Before she had a chance to reply to Xu Yun'er, Aunt Ming replied excitedl
"Don't remind me. After I got back from the airport that time, my dad gave me a vicious beating. I haven't been able to get out of bed for days. What kind of girlfriend are you? You haven't even come to look after me. If you don't come soon, I'm going to be angry!""Useless!"Hearing what he said, Xu Yun'er cursed him loudly in her mind. She had heard from Yu Gu that the Jiang family was close to bankruptcy. She hadn't expected Jiang Yutang to be bedridden and unable to get up.Since he couldn't help her future and couldn't help her make trouble for Gu Jiuci, it looked like it was time to get rid of this pawn!Xu Yun'er furrowed her brows in thought. Now that Gu Jiuci had actually gotten into bed with Huo Mingche, she had to think of a new plan!"Yutang, I've been busy studying for the National College Entrance Exam, and tomorrow I have to attend a production crew meeting for the drama. I'm really too busy. I'll come to visit you in a few days!"Xu Yun'er half-heartedly made some
Jiang Min lied without even a change in expression. She lied so convincingly that she believed it herself."Do you know why I ended up getting the role of the fourth female? It's because the director felt like he owed me and voluntarily reached out to me to discuss it. Only then did I reluctantly agree!"Xu Yun'er coldly laughed at her despicable behavior in her heart. "So it was Jiang Min who took away my role as the fourth female.""I really didn't think Ci would do something like this. If other people from the production crew learned of it... No, I can't let them find out!"Xu Yun'er pretended to let this slip then quickly rejected the thought."Jiang Min, you have to keep the secret for Ci!"By saying this, she was, on the contrary, emphasizing these words to Jiang Min. The more she said it, the more likely Jiang Min would do it."Humph! Keep it a secret? Shouldn't Gu Jiuci's despicable actions be revealed?! Xu Yun'er, you're too kind and that's why Gu Jiuci rides roughshod
"I'm being serious this time. You have to believe me!"Gu Jiuci panicked and hurriedly grabbed Si Chen's shoulder to explain. "I'm never swearing an oath again, for the heavens keep acting more as a hindrance than a help.""Humph! I won't believe you so easily. Even the heavens are warning me!"Si Chen purposely huffed coldly, but her tone was actually much gentler than before. At the bottom of her heart, she had forgiven Gu Jiuci. She had already forgiven her yesterday.Still, if she admitted it too quickly, she would be losing face."The heavens are often wrong, hehe," Gu Jiuci said awkwardly."Hurry up and drink your milk tea. If it gets cold, you can't drink it."Si Chen glared at Gu Jiuci with ill humor and shook her head helplessly."Okay, I'll drink it now!"Gu Jiuci quickly picked up the straw and poked it through the bottle of brown sugar milk tea. She watched as Si Chen casually flipped open her score and suddenly remembered something."Oh, right, Chenchen, what was
Yu Gu's gaze moved impatiently past Gu Jiuci toward Si Chen behind her."You're looking for me?"Si Chen immediately stood up. Her gaze was filled with surprise at his attention. After all, within the school grounds, Yu Gu had only ever voluntarily sought her out a handful of times. Those few times were often because of Xu Yun'er and he had sought Si Chen out to question her.Remembering all this, the light in Si Chen's eyes immediately dimmed."Yes."Yu Gu went around the other side to stand in front of Si Chen and he even took her hand. With a remorseful expression, he said, "Si Chen, I was in a bad mood that day and was overly excited so I said a lot of things that I didn't think through. Now I've thought everything over. We are childhood friends and our families have a marriage agreement. I shouldn't have treated you like that. Now I'm sincerely apologizing to you. I'm truly sorry. Can you accept me?""What?"To the side, Gu Jiuci was dumbstruck. In her last life, she'd neve
