Chapter 252 - The New Versus the Old

He knew that his mother had been manipulated.

However, he also knew that his mother only cared about herself. Even this marriage was meant to exploit the last of his value.

Neither his father nor his mother really cared for him.

But he couldn’t leave them alone now that Prince Zi had captured them.

Only by recovering and leading the Wang family could he try to save them.

More than an hour later, Gu Bailu finally stopped.

“I’m leaving now. I won’t come again. Seize your opportunity. The Wang family will be yours.”

Gu Bailu then jumped out the window.

She had a bad feeling that Feng Qingtian would come here again.

She had to leave before he came, or he might attack Wang Dachong if he got mad.

Gu Bailu returned to her store after she left the Wang family.

The second prince’s store was quite famous. Gu Bailu felt that anybody could sit in the store and collect money.

However, the manager that the Ye guards had hired for her told her that the store was in trouble the moment she came.

“Huh? What trouble?”

Who was making trouble for her when she had Prince Zi behind her?

“A new store opened across the street. It sells the unique clothes designed by Miss Murong. All our clients are going there.”

Gu Bailu stood up and saw a store with fancy decor across the street. It was obviously new.

She had been at home for two days, and the store was already open?

“Don’t tell me that it’s Nan Ningxin.” Gu Bailu was bummed.

She didn’t want to degrade herself by fighting with a white lotus.

However, Nan Ningxin had the Murong family and Feng Qingtian behind her. Also, she enjoyed a great reputation in Southern Glory Empire.

It would be difficult to crush her.

However, Gu Bailu was quite interested in the Night Lotus on her.

She had almost gotten it last time.

It was obvious that Nan Ningxin was prepared to fight it out with her.

It did make sense. The man she loved was wandering the streets holding another woman. Nan Ningxin must’ve gone crazy with fury.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Haha.” Gu Bailu laughed out loud when she thought that.

Your tricks are all useless if you can’t get Feng Qingtian.

Gu Bailu hopped across the street and walked into the other store.

“Your business really is flourishing. The clothes are beautiful.” Gu Bailu squeezed through the crowd with a smile.

Everybody recognized her and quickly backed away.

A show was about to start.

Miss Murong had had Prince Zi’s favor before, and the other woman was Prince Zi’s new love. Although they weren’t married, Prince Zi indulged her.

Most importantly, she could serve Prince Zi at night. The pillow talk alone was enough to make Miss Murong suffer.

This drama of the new versus the old would certainly be interesting.

The manager greeted her. “It’s all thanks to the patronage of the noble ladies. You seem quite free, Miss Gu, to drop by our store at such a time.”
