Chapter 559: Chapter 386: There is something you must know_2

Gu Li was keeping everyone in suspense on purpose.

Mo Shiting didn’t press her for more; he held her hand and led her up the stairs. As they stood outside their bedroom, Gu Li said, “Brother Ting, you open the door.”

Mo Shiting sounded doubtful, “Is there a trap waiting for me inside?”

“Pfft ——”

Gu Li snorted with laughter and couldn’t help but push him in, “There’s no trap. If there is, it would be a trap of gentle affection.”

She flung the door open just as she finished speaking.

Soon, there was a “bong” sound; a balloon had burst.

One, two, three… a total of 26 balloons burst, each one containing a small paper scroll with Gu Li’s affections written on it.

It took Mo Shiting half an hour to read each and every one of the notes.

He couldn’t help but to pull Gu Li into his embrace, gently stroked her shining black hair, with a tender and bewitching expression, “I also have a gift for you.”

“Really? What is it?”

Upon hearing about a gift, Gu Li’s eyes instantly sparkled.

“Well…”

Mo Shiting chuckled lowly, holding her in his arms, he whispered something in her ear.

Whatever he said to Gu Li had caused her to gasp, her face turning tomato red.

…

Having lived through their sweet wedding night, the next day, after they both had a good night’s sleep and hearty meal, Mo Shiting told Gu Li the truth about how she went missing as a child.

Upon hearing the truth, Gu Li remained silent for a long time.

Fearing Gu Li might worry about how Tang Wan would react, Mo Shiting reassuringly held her hand, “Your mom is much stronger than you think. You must have faith in her.”

“Sigh!”

Gu Li heaved a sigh of resignation,”Actually, instead of worrying about my mom, it’s Aunt He that I’m more concerned about. Aunt He is a good person who unfortunately has a bad daughter. Her life is so tough. If Qin Shurong does end up in jail, Aunt He will be heartbroken. It’s just…I can’t let her off the hook.”

She wasn’t a saint. After Qin Shurong did her considerable harm, how could she easily forgive her?

Actually, whether or not to forgive her wasn’t the point, the important thing was that she must be punished by law.

However ——

“Brother Ting, Qin Shurong was only 10 years old at that time, it seems she can’t be punished by law.”

“Ha!”

Mo Shiting sneered coldly, “She would indeed be immune from punishment if she stopped her evil deeds. But sadly, she has gone too far down this path.”

…

That day, Mo Shiting told Gu Li everything he had learnt.

Upon hearing that Shen Yunsi and Qin Shurong were in league with each other, Gu Li couldn’t help but marvel at the bizarre alliance. The saying “the enemy of one’s enemy is a friend too” was proven to be quite accurate.

She was somewhat curious about what plots and tricks they, these two bedmates, would devise against her.

In the following days, Gu Li juggled between attending classes and waiting for Qin Shurong to make a move.

She’d thought it would be some time before anything happened, but to her surprise, the other party was even more impatient; only a week later, she actually took the initiative to come looking for her.

As soon as Qin Shurong’s plane landed at Capital City International Airport, she called Gu Li.

Gu Li smirked, with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, “Hello, Miss Qin.”

“Tang Tang, just call me Sister Shu Rong, you know. If you call me Miss Qin, it sounds quite distant.”

There was a clear undertone of pretension in Qin Shurong’s voice.

Even if Gu Li couldn’t see her face, she could guess how insincere her smile might be.

With a poker face, Gu Li answered coolly, “We’re not close enough for that. It’s more appropriate for me to address you as Miss Qin.”

“Well, suit yourself then.”

Getting the cold shoulder from Gu Li, Qin Shurong was grinding her teeth in anger but she had to put up with it for the time being so as not to ruin her plan.

So, she quickly pulled herself together and continued with a smile, “Tang Tang, I heard you got married last week, congratulations. I’ve come to Hua Country to visit a hotel. If you’re free this evening, may I invite you to dinner?”

She picked this day on purpose because she had already found out that Mo Shiting had left the country yesterday and wasn’t by Gu Li’s side.

It was the best opportunity for her to make a move on Gu Li.

“Let’s not, we aren’t that close.”

Gu Li didn’t hesitate to turn her down.

If she’d shown any warmth towards Qin Shurong, it might have raised doubts because Qin Shurong was very shrewd indeed.

Anticipating that Gu Li wouldn’t accept her invitation easily, Qin Shurong changed tactics, “This time, your mom asked me to bring you something and said it must be handed to you personally.”

“Alright then, tell me where to meet and I’ll come over.”

Only then did Gu Li reluctantly agree.

Seeing that her trap was set, Qin Shurong’s eyes jumped with excitement, “Alright, I’ll send you the address. Let’s meet at eight tonight?”

“Okay.”

Answering indifferently, Gu Li hung up the phone without waiting for Qin Shurong’s response.

Not long afterwards, Qin Shurong sent the address to her.

Gu Li glanced at the address and forwarded it.

…

At eight in the evening, Gu Li showed up for the appointment.

The place was a local, famous restaurant. Qin Shurong even booked the entire venue.

“Tang Tang, come sit here.”

As soon as she saw Gu Li, Qin Shurong was brimming with enthusiasm.

Gu Li moved gracefully towards her and casually crossed her legs, “Miss Qin, you didn’t invite me here just to give me a gift from my mom, did you?”

As she served her hot tea, Qin Shurong said, “I just want to get closer to you. After all, we are sisters.”

Sisters?

Humph!

She didn’t even feel ashamed to use that term?

Gu Li sneered inwardly and took a sip from her teacup.

Seeing that she drank the tea she poured without any suspicions, Qin Shurong’s smile deepened.

She took her time and finished the tea in one go.

“By the way, I’ll get you your mom’s gift now.”

As Qin Shurong finished speaking, she went to get the gift.

Gu Li glanced at her subconsciously, just as she saw Qin Shurong suddenly sway, “Why am I so dizzy…”

Before she could finish her sentence, she collapsed on the table.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you?”

Just as Gu Li tried to stand up and check on her, she too felt her head spinning and passed out.

A short while later.

Shen Yunsi emerged from a room inside, followed by Qiu Yuxin and several hoodlums she had hired.

Seeing the two women passed out at the table, she felt an immense satisfaction.

She walked towards Gu Li and gave her shoulder a firm shake, when she confirmed that Gu Li had indeed fainted, a malicious grudge flared in Shen Yunsi’s eyes.

Gu Li, now that you are in my clutches, I will make your life a living hell!
