Ji Sisi eagerly watched Huo Sicheng leave, a trace of inscrutable emotion flickering in her eyes.
She unhappily turned to Chu Yu. âWhere did I imitate Gu Qingcheng?â
Chu Yu frowned tightly. âYour dress and style, only Gu Qingcheng would wear like this.â
âAre you being too harsh?â Ji Sisi looked at Chu Yu with a saddened expression. âYouâve only seen me at work in Huo Corporation. Youâve never seen my daily outfit choices. To rashly say Iâm imitating Gu Qingcheng is really hurtful.â
Chu Yu:
He looked at Ji Sisi again, more seriously this time.
He knew Gu Qingcheng very well. Hven from his initial dislike for her to his acceptance, he was familiar with her likes, and her fashion choices.
As President Huoâs assistant, he personally prepared flowers, jewelry, and clothes for Gu Qingcheng. So, Ji Sisiâs obvious imitation of Gu Qingcheng, and her denial, made him furrow his brows even more.
âHow did you become like this?â He looked at Ji Sisi, puzzled, âYouâve been at Huo Corporation for many years, you should know Mr. Huo dislikes being disturbed. You not only blocked his car but also imitated his wife, Gu Qingcheng. Now when I question you, you claim itâs your usual style. Ji Sisi, what happened to you after leaving Huo Corporation? How did you become like
Before Ji Sisi could reply, Chu Yu continued, âIf youâre in trouble, tell me. Weâre colleagues, Iâll definitely help you.â
âChu Yu, what are you talking about?â Ji Sisi looked at him, bewildered, âWhat do you mean Iâm in trouble? What do you mean by âhow did I become like thisâ? What have I become? Iâve told you clearly, this is my usual style. You think Iâm imitating Gu Qingcheng because youâve never seen my daily outfits.â
âYou say youâll help me as a colleague, but I donât need your help. Instead, donât judge me for imitating! If I were to imitate anyone, it wouldnât be Gu Qingcheng. After all, I still want to work at Huo Corporation. I canât afford to anger Mr. Huo.â
Chu Yu looked at Ji Sisi with a complex gaze, âI donât believe a word you say! Ji Sisi, itâs not me being prejudiced, you are indeed imitating Gu Qingcheng.â
âIâm not, donât talk nonsense,â Ji Sisi said.
âEnough, I donât want to argue with you,â Chu Yu looked directly at Ji Sisi. âEveryone has their own ambitions. What you choose to do is your decision. Iâll let you off this time for stopping Mr. Huoâs car, but if thereâs a next time, I wonât be so lenient.â
âYou wonât be lenient with me?â Ji Sisi looked at Chu Yu in surprise, âI just wanted to return to Huo Corporation by stopping the car. Besides, I was once rumored to be involved with Mr. Huo. Youâre going to be harsh with me? Are you planning to kill me or something?â
âRumored involvement? Ji Sisi, one must know when to advance and when to retreat,â Chu Yu looked at her displeased and continued, âMr. Huoâs heart has always been with Gu Qingcheng. If you want to return to Huo Corporation and use your past media attention to raise your status, be careful. If you donât measure your actions, youâre not far from ruin.â
Ji Sisi unhappily said, âDidnât you used to dislike Gu Qingcheng? Why are you now speaking up for her?â
âI used to have a very good impression of you, even finding you a job after Mr. Huo dismissed you,â Chu Yu retorted sarcastically to Ji Sisi, âI didnât expect that now, not only have you lost your previous grace and propriety, but youâve also become so shameless.â
âYouâ¦â Ji Sisi was angered by Chu Yuâs blunt humiliation. âChu Yu, weâre colleagues, how can you speak so unpleasantly? What kind of person is Gu Qingcheng? Sheâs a shrew. You were there when she hit me last time. How can a woman just hit someone? Besides, she doesnât truly love Mr. Huo. Donât let him be deceived by her anymore.â
Chu Yu, listening to Ji Sisi, felt she was out of her mind.
âWhere did you hear that Gu Qingcheng doesnât truly love Mr. Huo?â he challenged her, âFrom what I know, Mr. Huo and Gu Qingcheng deeply love each other. Thereâs no deception.â
Ji Sisi, recalling what Qi Shaoze told her, felt Gu Qingcheng was despicably deceiving Huo Sicheng.
She couldnât let Huo Sicheng continue to be deceived by Gu Qingcheng. She wanted to help him break free from Gu Qingchengâs lies.
âChu Yu, you donât know anything,â she coldly said and turned to leave.
âYouâre the one who doesnât know anything,â Chu Yu stood there, hands in his pockets, watching Ji Sisi coldly, âDonât block the car again, or I will take action.â Ji Sisi heard Chu Yuâs words but didnât pay him any attention.
At that moment, inside Royal Dance Academy, Gu Qingcheng was standing while a tailor measured her body.
âWhy have you lost weight?â Li Jing frowned at the recorded measurements of Gu Qingcheng, âSeems he hasnât taken good care of you.â
Hearing Li Jingâs words, Gu Qingcheng was startled and then smiled. âTaking care of oneself is personal, relying on him? Forget it. Heâs sick himself, if I relied on him, I would have starved by now.â
Li Jing laughed at Gu Qingchengâs words, âOkay, the measurements are done. Iâve already designed the dress, and weâll start making it tonight.â
Gu Qingcheng glanced at the design, âMasterâs taste is always good.â
Li Jing signaled the tailor and looked at Gu Qingcheng after the tailor left. âHow are you and Mr. Huo recently?â
Gu Qingcheng, adjusting her clothes, casually replied, âPretty good.â
Li Jing caught a hint of bitterness in Gu Qingchengâs eyes and sighed, âSeems not good at all. What happened?â
Gu Qingchengâs mind cleared, recalling the phone call she made to Huo Sicheng earlier today, hearing Ji Sisiâs voice on the other end, and feeling annoyed.
âNothing happened.â
Li Jingâs phone rang, and she looked at Gu Qingcheng with a complex expression after answering it.
âThe bell ringer must be the one to untie the bell.â
âWhat do you mean?â Gu Qingcheng looked at Li Jing in surprise, âMaster, I donât understand.â
Li Jing told Gu Qingcheng, âYouâll understand in a while.â
Gu Qingcheng: ââ¦â
She didnât know what Li Jing meant and sat in front of the computer to watch Zi Yuâs dance videos.
Suddenly, a pair of slender, well-defined hands lifted, placing a small cake on her desk, along with a cup of green mandarin juice.
Engrossed in the video, Gu Qingcheng instinctively said, âMaster, Iâm not hungry.â
âIâm not Li Jing,â a deep, magnetic voice responded.
Gu Oingcheng stiffened, turning to see Huo Sicheng looking at her tenderly.
Seeing him reminded her of Ji Sisi, which annoyed her.
Moreover, it hadnât been long since she called him, and he had quickly come from ji Sisiâs side to bring her cake and juice.
Hmph! What a scoundrel.
She frowned and asked him displeasedly, What are you doing here?â
