Everyone present looked surprised. Many people had already reevaluated Gu Yundongâs status in their hearts.
Miss Bao was even more shocked. She actually didnât guess. Yes, yes, Nie Shuang had said that the third boss of New Tea Pavilion had the surname Gu.
Moreover, she came and went in the hall as she pleased and chatted happily. Why didnât she think in that direction?
Miss Bao was extremely vexed. To think she said that she knew everything about the prefectural city. Her face hurt.
However, among the people present, one of them was even more shocked by Madam Daiâs words. Her face turned pale, and her legs were so weak that she could not stand. She sat on the ground.
Why? How could that be? Was she the boss? The boss of the Gu family? Then why didnât she say anything? Was she deliberately watching her make a fool of herself?
Wei Lan was the first to see it. Seeing this, she sighed inwardly and walked over to help her.
âGet up first. Later, go and apologize to Boss Gu. Perhaps Boss Gu wonât make things difficult for you on account of Madam Dai.â
Xiao Yi suddenly pinched the back of her hand. Her neatly trimmed nails still scratched a bloody mark on the back of her hand.
âHissâ¦â Wei Lan cried out in pain. âXiao Yi, let go.â
However, Xiao Yi raised her head and looked at her with hatred in her eyes. âYou did it on purpose. You know that sheâs the boss of the Gu family, right? Thatâs why you worked so hard to please her, but you deliberately didnât tell me.â
âI didnât.â
âYou did.â Xiao Yi grabbed her hand. âYou watched as I spoke ill of her behind her back. You didnât tell me anything and waited for this moment, right? Wei Lan, youâre too sinister.â
âYouâre simply crazy. Whether you believe it or not, I really didnât know that she was the owner of the Gu family. After I found out, I wanted to tell you, but I couldnât find you. You went to look for Madam Dai.â
Wei Lan pulled her hand back. Looking at Xiao Yi, who only had resentment in her eyes and did not know how to repent, she completely lost the desire to talk to her.
She stood up and said coldly, âYouâre on your own.â
Then, she walked towards Gu Yundong.
At this moment, Madam Dai pulled Gu Yundong and introduced her formally again. âThis is the third boss of New Tea Pavilion, Gu Yundong. She is very busy, so she did not have time to come here after opening. If we had not written to her to urge her, she might not have come. She is so heartless to throw this shop to us.â
There was intimacy in her words, and she sounded even more serious.
Everyone present could tell that this Boss Gu had a very high status in New Tea Pavilion.
Gu Yundong said helplessly, âIâm not as heartless as Auntie says. Look, I came immediately after you sent me a letter. See how loyal I am to you.â
Madam Dai leaned closer to her and whispered, âIf youâre really loyal, teach me how to put on your makeup another day.â
Gu Yundong was speechless.
Youâre actually like this, Madam Dai.
She smiled and nodded. âAll right.â
âThatâs good.â Madam Dai was instantly satisfied. âSince youâre here today, I have something to tell you. Letâs find a room.â
Gu Yundong nodded. Madam Dai greeted everyone and excused herself.
The others had the painting in their hands. They knew that the two of them had something to say, so they did not ask them to stay.
Miss Bao wanted to know more about Gu Yundong. Unfortunately, she was glared at by her elders, so she could only find another opportunity.
