Chapter 163: Slapping Mrs. Xu’s Face
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mrs. Qi choked, but Gu Yang’s gentle appearance made her unable to throw a tantrum.
Moreover, what she said was indeed the truth. Little Yan’s results were indeed not considered great in First High School.
However, she didn’t expect Gu Yang to speak up for Gu Jin. Didn’t Little Yan say that Gu Yang and Gu Jin only got along on the surface and that the real and fake young ladies were fighting among themselves?
Mrs. Xu held Mrs. Qi’s arm and did not let her continue to find fault. Instead, she gestured for Ruan Xueling to look at her watch with a faint smile. “Mrs. Gu, it’s getting late. Do you think we should have lunch first or sign the company transfer contract?”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Gu Yang stood up to open the door.
A woman speaking fluid French could be heard coming from the doorway. “My dears, I’ve kept you waiting.”
Ruan Xueling suppressed her excitement and stood up to greet her in English, which Caroline understood.
The blonde French woman was dressed fashionably as if she had walked out of the cover of a fashion magazine.
Perhaps it was because she was in a good mood, but she was not as cold as the last time they met. She was greeting everyone warmly.
When she saw Gu Jin, her blue eyes lit up. She walked in front of Gu Jin in her high heels and wanted to touch her as gently as if she were touching a newly designed piece of jewelry. Her eyes were slightly infatuated as she said, “Oh my god, my dear fallen angel, I’ve finally seen you in person. You’re even more beautiful in person than in the photos. You’re simply god’s most perfect masterpiece.”
Gu Jin leaned back slightly, somewhat resistant to Caroline’s overly enthusiastic attitude. Her expression was still cold as she replied in French, “Thank you, but please stay away from me.”
Caroline was speechless.
The corners of Gu Yang’s mouth twitched. This was the big sister she was familiar with from the original book.
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Qi were stunned when they saw Ms. Caroline.
Mrs. Xu’s grip on the teacup tightened slightly. She maintained a dignified smile on her face and asked Caroline in English, “Ms. Caroline, I didn’t expect you to come to Jin City. May I know what brings you here?”
After Caroline sat down, she took out a sealed document from her crocodile purse and handed it to Ruan Xueling. “I came over to fulfill my promise. Dear Ruan, the two angels gave me inspiration and helped me to complete the creation of the entire Angel series jewelry design. This is the design for the series. Here you go. I hope Xue Yao Jewelry can show it to the world.”
Ruan Xueling was so excited that her hands were trembling. She took the document and opened it. After carefully checking it, she praised Ms. Caroline, “This is really a perfect masterpiece! Thank you, Ms. Caroline.”
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Qi’s expressions were ugly.
Mrs. Xu was also in the jewelry business and knew how precious Caroline’s jewelry designs were. This long-awaited Angel series could bring immeasurable value to the company.
She craned her neck to take a look, but Ruan Xueling put away the document and said warily, “Mrs. Xu, this is a trade secret.”
Mrs. Xu’s expression stiffened.
Ruan Xueling took out the bank card she had prepared beforehand and handed it to Caroline. “These are the design fees we discussed.”
Caroline smiled and accepted the card. Then, she looked at Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Qi and asked curiously, “Ruan, I heard from Little Angel Gu that you have a bet with Xu?”
Ruan Xueling held the heavy stack of Angel series jewelry designs and looked at Mrs. Xu with a smug smile. “That’s right. Mrs. Xu, it’s time for you to fulfill your promise.”
Gu Yang waved her phone to the side and smiled. “Mrs. Xu, don’t go back on your word. I recorded everything the other day.”
This was a habit she had learned from Big Boss. Words were useless. She had to record it in time and leave evidence..
