CHAPTER 582: CHAPTER 581: TIMOTHY’S STUDENT IS CALLED CHI GUI... SISTER CHI?

Luo Qianqian began to explain, "I wasn’t waiting for you... a designer just came over to chat with me, which delayed some time."

Chi Ruoxi’s face stiffened, tinged with embarrassment.

Just then, the elevator doors opened again, and Gu Ling, holding a stack of documents, walked out.

Noticing Chi Gui standing not far away, her eyes brightened. She was about to speak when suddenly someone appeared in front of her.

Chi Ruoxi, with a full-faced smile, stepped directly in front of Chi Gui and Luo Qianqian, handing over her business card, "Miss Gu, hello! My name is Chi Ruoxi, a member of the Huaxia Jewelry Association! I’ve long admired your reputation; you’re even more fashionable and beautiful than I imagined!"

She was anxious inside, it was so unlucky to have run into Gu Ling just as Chi Gui and Luo Qianqian did!

Everyone in the jewelry industry knew that Gu Ling was the premier student of Timothy Carmen.

Chi Ruoxi was afraid that Luo Qianqian or Chi Gui would beat her to it!

Zhao Yuexiu reacted quickly, also quickly blocking Chi Gui, smiling and greeting Gu Ling.

Gu Ling, having just exited the elevator, was still reeling from what had happened and was nearly overwhelmed by the unending flattery from Chi Ruoxi and Zhao Yuexiu.

However, she did hear Chi Ruoxi’s self-introduction and looked up at Chi Gui with some confusion, "Sister Chi, are these your family?"

The air went deadly silent in an instant.

Chi Ruoxi and Zhao Yuexiu’s ingratiating smiles had not yet faded before they froze on their faces.

What...what did Gu Ling just say?

Sister Chi?!

Under the incredulous gazes of Chi Ruoxi and Zhao Yuexiu, Chi Gui shook her head calmly, "I don’t know them."

"Oh," Gu Ling, upon hearing Chi Gui didn’t know them, couldn’t be bothered to waste words on these two who had suddenly appeared.

Having become Timothy Carmen’s disciple, she was accustomed to people suddenly trying to connect with her.

Gu Ling politely yet somewhat coolly told the two, "Excuse me, could you step aside? I have important matters to attend to."

Chi Ruoxi and Zhao Yuexiu quickly moved aside.

Gu Ling walked up to Chi Gui, and the previously somewhat cold expression instantly turned into a happy smile, "Sister Chi, let’s go. Teacher Timothy is already waiting for you in the box!"

Chi Gui looked at Gu Ling, now apparently more confident than when they first met, and arched an eyebrow, "Did she give you special training?"

Gu Ling nodded somewhat sheepishly, "After I conveyed your words to Teacher Timothy, she forced me to loudly recite ’I am very capable’ ten times every day at home, and had other students compliment me every day..."

Although the method was simple, crude, and somewhat embarrassing, it was tremendously effective for psychological suggestion.

Chi Gui nodded, not at all surprised by Timothy’s method, "Indeed, that sounds like something she would do."

Behind them, Chi Yunjin and Luo Qianqian were dumbfounded.

Was this—this the kind of thing that Timothy Carmen, always so dazzling yet ethereal as if a ’sprite fallen to earth’, would do??

Soon, Gu Ling led Chi Gui and the others to the front of the box.

She politely knocked on the door, and a crisp and spirited "Come in" was heard from inside.

Gu Ling slowly pushed the door open.

Chi Yunjin and Luo Qianqian couldn’t help but nervously swallow.

The previous conversation between Gu Ling and Chi Gui had nearly shattered their previous impressions of Timothy Carmen.

Both anxious and tense, they watched the door inside, filled with curiosity about the real Timothy Carmen they were about to meet.
