Before Gu Man and the others got into the private room, Lin Lijuan stopped them in the pa.s.sage. “Gu Qing, Gu Man, I need to talk to you right now.”
“Lin Lijuan, I don’t think we have anything to talk about. If you want to have skincare, you can turn to the beauticians,” Gu Qing refused directly. She knew what Lin Lijuan wanted to do, but she wouldn’t listen to her now.
“You…” If Mrs. Hao and Mrs. Lu had not been there, Lin Lijuan absolutely would have yelled at Gu Qing, but now Lin Lijuan had to swallow her anger. She turned around and left right away.
She called Gu Qinxiang the minute she got outside.
“What?” Gu Qinxiang was impatient at having to answer Lin Lijuan’s call.
“Honey, I just met Gu Qing and Gu Man in a beauty salon. You won’t believe it, but they’re the bosses of the beauty salon! How can they afford it? It’s worth a few million yuan at least!” Lin Lijuan said with anger.
“What? They have that much money?” Hearing that, Gu Qinxiang was shocked too. He didn’t believe it either.
“Exactly! That’s the reason why they both quit and moved. They’re rich now, and don’t want to stay in contact with us!” Lin Lijuan added.
“How did they become rich?” Gu Qinxiang was confused.
“How would I know? I wanted to ask them, but Gu Qing wouldn’t talk to me. Mrs. Hao and Mrs. Lu were also there helping them. I was afraid to annoy them, so I left.” Thinking that Mrs. Hao and Mrs. Lu were so close to Gu Qing and Gu Man, Lin Lijuan was full of jealousy.
“What? Do you mean the Mrs. Hao whose family ranked ninth on the list of the richest, and the Mrs. Lu from Happy Home, the famous furniture and home accessories company?” Gu Qinxiang was shocked once more.
“Yes!” Lin Lijuan replied.
“Fine, I’ll find out,” Gu Qinxiang said, then hung up. He had mixed emotions now.
He wanted to call Gu Qing with his mobile phone, but after second thought, he used the landline in his office, because Gu Qing knew his mobile phone number, and she wouldn’t answer his call.
Gu Qing truly didn’t know Gu Qinxiang’s office number, so she answered his call, “Hi,”
Gu Qinxiang didn’t waste time greeting her, but asked directly, “Gu Qing, I’m your eldest brother. I heard that you and Gu Man bought a beauty salon. Where did you get the money?”
He was purely questioning her. It sounded like he believed that Gu Qing and Gu Man should be poor and lack money forever.
Hearing that, Gu Qing almost laughed because of her eldest brother’s tone. She absolutely understood that Gu Qinxiang hated to see them living a better life than him, so she argued at once, “Why are you questioning me now? Is it illegal that we’re rich? Don’t forget your poor life from before you became rich!”
“You…” Gu Qinxiang was mad, but didn’t know what to say.
