Chapter 40

It was really rare for Gu Shishi to actually bring her brain out with her.

Gu Anhao sneered in disapproval deep down as she listened to Gu Shishi’s words. However, she kept on a straight face. “So, what else do you want? Do you want to drug me again before sending me to another man’s bed? No matter what it is, you are still the young lady of a prestigious family. Aren’t you afraid of any retribution at all?”

“Oh! Your mother is such a shameless wh*re and that is the reason why she gave birth to such a useless illegitimate child like you! Both of you are the same and equally thick-skinned! How dare you talk back to me? Have you forgotten what happened to your mother? There is no good outcome from becoming someone else’s mistress! Gu Anhao, let me tell you something! You will always be an illegitimate child! Stop dreaming that you will ever be able to lift your head up high in this world! I will make sure that I will continue trampling all over you!”

This would not be the first time that Gu Shishi had trampled on her anyway. Gu Anhao had already been bullied by Gu Shishi and her mother when she was just fourteen or fifteen years old. At that time, Gu Shishi pushed her to the ground and she kicked and stepped on her as though she was nothing. Ever since that day, Gu Anhao swore to herself that she would never be bullied by this pair of mother and daughter again.

Gu Anhao remained silent as she thought about this. This was because she did not want to create a scene in such a big hotel. Even though she knew that she would definitely be able to take on the both of them as she had been mastering her Taekwondo skills for the past few years, she knew that she had to control her urges. If she did not hold back, she was afraid that a life would be lost today!

When Gu Shishi saw how anxious Gu Anhao was and how she was desperately trying to leave, she stepped forward to face her directly. “Why are you anxious to leave? Why aren’t you asking Zuo Hancheng to come over to help you this time? Did you finally realize that he is not interested in you and he has never taken you seriously before?”

“Wow! Just look at you. You are actually wearing a dress today! I didn’t realize it before this. Did CEO Zuo finally bring out the woman in you? Hahaha. Gu Anhao, stop daydreaming already! Zuo Hancheng is a man with such a high status. You will never be worthy of him! Only someone like me can ever match up to him. You, pfft…”

Gu Shishi then raised her hand and swiped across Gu Anhao’s chin with her fingernails. Gu Anhao raised her hand and grabbed hold of Gu Shishi’s wrist immediately, hoping to throw her directly onto the ground.

However, when Mrs. Gu saw that Gu Anhao was about to take action, she quickly stepped in and supported Gu Shishi with one hand. She then stretched out her other hand and gave Gu Anhao a tight slap across her face.

Slap!

A clear and red palm print appeared instantly on Gu Anhao’s face as her cheek started swelling in an instant. Gu Anhao could feel a burning sensation on her cheek where Mrs. Gu had just slapped her.

Even if she really wanted to tear them apart now, she gritted her teeth as she held herself back.

She knew that if she hurt the mother and daughter here today, they would definitely take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of her. If she were to hurt even one of Gu Shishi’s fingers, the Gu family would definitely use this as an excuse to get her arrested.

‘Gu Anhao, calm down! You can endure this!’

Therefore, Gu Anhao clenched her fists tightly together, her fingernails embedded deeply into her own palms. She continued staring at Gu Shishi and Mrs. Gu with a cold and hard expression on her face. Gu Shishi was a little more vigilant because she knew that she had already successfully provoked Gu Anhao. Moreover, she knew that Gu Anhao was more than capable of hurting her if she really wanted to.

When Gu Anhao saw that Gu Shishi was acting in a more cautious manner, she sneered before she said, “If I really cannot take this anymore one day, I don’t mind going to prison as long as I can take both your lives beforehand!”

Gu Anhao was very young and she had a very small frame but somehow, both Gu Shishi and Mrs. Gu frowned and quickly stepped aside as soon as they heard her words.

After walking out of the washroom, Gu Anhao could feel a burning pain on the spot where Mrs. Gu had just slapped her. Gu Anhao ignored all the onlookers who had heard all the commotion going on in the washroom, and she turned around and quickly walked into the elevator.

There were a few hotel staff in the elevator and they realized that the young girl’s eyes were red and swollen. Furthermore, it seemed as though someone had just slapped her because her left cheek was red and swollen.
