CHAPTER 164: CHAPTER 164: YOU SHOULD BE THE ONE FEELING PROUD

Closing the laptop, Gu Ningyue picked up the "Diamond Sutra" beside her.

Lately, probably because there were too many things happening, her drowsiness wasn’t as overwhelming as before.

But maybe it was also because this "Diamond Sutra" was truly effective, helping her avoid previous restlessness.

"All forms are illusory; if one sees all forms are non-forms, then one sees the Tathagata."

Reading this line, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but curve her lips.

If she really had such a high realm, she probably wouldn’t have ended up in her current situation.

After who knows how long, Gu Ningyue finally put down the book, got up to take a shower and change clothes, and pushed the door to leave the room.

In the living room on the first floor, Gu Wanwan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, her face expressionless from where Gu Ningyue stood.

She was clearly a newlywed wife, yet she looked like an old woman who had lost all passion.

Gu Ningyue linked everything that had happened recently and could already guess why she was like this,

In this family, without her own comparison, Gu Wanwan was extraordinarily pathetic.

Hearing the ’click clack’ of high heels, Gu Wanwan turned her head and saw Gu Ningyue walking towards her brightly, a thorn seemed to pierce into her eyes suddenly.

Gu Ningyue with Ling Tianyou had already reached the peak of her life, and after getting married and having children, there would be a ten billion inheritance.

Why would those who once circled around her like dogs now live so glamorously?

Before their eyes met, Gu Wanwan turned her head again, refusing to look at her.

Gu Ningyue found it a bit amusing and walked slowly to her side: "Why are you watching TV alone?"

Her voice was light, as if asking but also mocking.

Gu Wanwan didn’t answer her question, not even glancing at her, "Xiao Heng was sentenced to eight years in prison, and he’s going to be transferred to serve his sentence tomorrow. Are you happy now?"

Just now, Li Yulan had a big fight with her again.

Because she refused to ask Ye Mingchen to help Gu Heng, Li Yulan, despite her body still receiving an IV, cursed her viciously in the hospital.

Gu Wanwan had never heard such unpleasant words since she was young.

In her memory, her mother was always elegant.

Even when facing her ignorant brother, Li Yulan never said such harsh words to him.

But when facing her, all those vicious remarks surged out.

"Of course, I’m happy." Gu Ningyue took the opportunity to sit beside her, smiling and looking at her: "But you should be happier! You and Ye Mingchen are lovers who finally got together, and you have a child now; it’s truly your glory days!"

Gu Wanwan’s expression changed, "How did you know..."

"You’ve shown too many flaws." Gu Ningyue didn’t want to discuss this issue with her, just said: "Since you have a child, you should take good care of it! After all, you’re pregnant with the future heir of the Ye Family. Hope it’s not a girl, or else what if she ends up like you, right!"

Illegitimate daughter, shameless, without any principles.

Even though Gu Ningyue didn’t say it explicitly, Gu Wanwan could hear those words in her voice.

After so long, even after she became Mrs. Ye, she still couldn’t change these facts.

Gu Wanwan turned her head, clearly with a smile on her lips, but after a fierce argument, her eyes were as dead as ashes: "I didn’t expect you to still have the mood to meddle in my affairs. I heard Chen Rui has returned to the country, she is Ling Tianyou’s white moonlight. Gu Ningyue, do you really think you can compare with her? She’s the first beauty in City A."

Although Gu Ningyue was beautiful, if standing next to Chen Rui, she might still fall short.

She couldn’t believe Gu Ningyue wouldn’t care or be afraid at all.

"That’s none of your concern." Gu Ningyue didn’t care, the current Gu Wanwan was merely a rootless grass in her eyes, with no threat whatsoever, "For now, Ling Tianyou is my boyfriend. If Chen Rui wants to steal him, she’s just a third party. Just a mistress, what’s there to be afraid of, right?"

With so many people knowing Chen Rui, it only piqued her interest in Chen Rui more.

She wanted to see just how beautiful this first beauty of City A was.

"You!" Hearing the word ’mistress’ got Gu Wanwan a bit agitated: "Mingchen liked me in the first place. Speaking of mistresses, you’re the mistress! If it weren’t for you, Mingchen and I wouldn’t have sneaked around for so long."

Gu Ningyue glanced Gu Wanwan up and down, she had encountered many shameless people in her past life, but someone as shameless as Gu Wanwan was a first.

Cheating on the original owner, stealing the original owner’s boyfriend, and yet it turned out the original owner was considered the third party.

"Yes, it’s all my fault. If you want to blame, only blame me..." Gu Ningyue leaned closer to Gu Wanwan’s ear: "For not being as slutty as you. If I were half as slutty as you, I probably wouldn’t be like this today."

Gu Wanwan’s face instantly turned red, and she shot up standing: "Gu Ningyue, say that one more time!"

Gu Wanwan had provoked herself into anger. Gu Ningyue pursed her lips with a smile, returning to her previous carefree demeanor: "I didn’t say anything! I was just sincerely hoping Chen Rui is a cold iceberg beauty, unlike my sister. Otherwise, who knows, Tianyou might really be seduced away by her from the bed. I’m actually complimenting you, sister, on your bedroom skills!"

While speaking, she glanced at her watch: "Oh dear, the banquet is about to start."

Without waiting for Gu Wanwan to say anything else, Gu Ningyue stood up as well.

Gu Wanwan’s face flushed red and then pale, but she opened her mouth and didn’t know what to say under the maid’s secret gaze.

When Gu Ningyue reached the door, a crisp voice echoed to her ear: "Oh by the way, did you always think your mom really loved you?"

Gu Wanwan instinctively replied: "Of course."

Even though her feelings were often ignored for Gu Heng.

But over these years, she had experienced everything a noble daughter of the Gu Family should have.

Isn’t this... love?

"What if I told you that Dad originally intended to give you an additional five million on top of fifty million as your dowry gift?"

With those words, Gu Ningyue casually walked out the door, leaving Gu Wanwan sitting on the sofa, speechless for a long time.

Outside the villa, Ling Tianyou’s car slowly approached from a distance and eventually stopped next to her.

"Why are you waiting outside? Aren’t you hot?" Ling Tianyou lowered the car window and asked as he looked at her.

Gu Ningyue beamed: "I just came out, and your car arrived."

After getting into the car, Ling Tianyou curiously glanced at her: "What mischief have you been up to this time? Smiling so happily?"

Gu Ningyue smiled, pursing her lips: "Don’t talk nonsense! I’m not that kind of woman."
