Chapter 5: Chapter Five: loathing

Author: Gu Rong Rong Machine Translation

This was a luxurious four-story villa. It had a grand front door and a high-rise entrance hall that had a European-style classical elegance. From afar, one could see that the interior decoration was elegant and luxurious. The layout of the interior was very stylish and had been meticulously designed.

When she reached the entrance of the villa, Gu Ruochu immediately rang the doorbell.

A servant ran over and poked at the door. "Young Madam?"

Gu Ruochu stood outside and quietly observed everything in front of her.

"Young Madam, please wait for a moment. I'll go get the madam."

Soon, Gu Ruochu saw a woman dressed in a luxurious and slightly youthful manner walk out of the hall gracefully. She was dressed in a long, slim dress and wore a diamond necklace around her neck. There was also a young woman beside her.

Gu Ruochu narrowed her eyes and looked. 'Heh, isn't this her older sister, Gu Yanwei?'

Some people had speculated that Gu Yanwei had a thing for Huo Nanchen. She had already infiltrated his inner circle. However, she was an adopted daughter. Now that she had seized some influence, she felt at ease and did not show any mercy.

"Mother."

"You're back? Come in."

Madam Huo's expression was neither cold nor indifferent. Gu Ruochu knew that her mother-in-law did not like her, but she would not deliberately show it.

Gu Ruochu really had the urge to BLOW UP THE ENTIRE WORLD!

In the past, she was the heir of the Bai family, the king of the entertainment industry, and a famous director. She had been the target of countless young girls. When had she ever been despised by anyone?

Gu Ruochu suppressed the anger in her heart and followed the servant into the room. She then realized that there were several people inside. Coincidentally, a few of them looked very familiar and had appeared in the information sent to her by Rong Xiao.

"Madam Huo, is this your daughter-in-law? She may be pretty, but she's not even half as good-looking as Yan Wei." A wealthy lady scoffed from the side.

When Madam Huo heard this, she loathed Gu Ruochu even more and felt that it was a loss of face.

After Gu Ruochu married into the Huo family, Gu Yanwei joined the Huo Corporation and helped Huo Nanchen win a project that he had been tracking for a long time. Since then, she had become famous and the outside world was full of praise for her.

Apart from having a poor background, she had everything that Madam Huo wanted in a daughter-in-law.

Unfortunately...

The person that Nan Chen chose to marry was this idiot, Gu Ruochu.

Gu Yanwei did not seem to mind and cared for her like a caring elder sister. "Ruo Chu, why have you been discharged from the hospital? The doctor said you were yet to recover. Why do you not know how to cherish your body?"

"Why are you here?"

Gu Ruochu's voice was very calm, but it somehow caused a strange feeling to rise in Gu Yanwei's heart.

"I..."

She suddenly did not know how to reply. In the past, she had often come to the Huo family home with the aim of one day taking Gu Ruochu's place. 'Gu Ruochu! This idiot had always been stupid. Why would she suddenly pick on her today?'

"Those who don't know would think you are the daughter-in-law of the Huo family," Gu Ruochu casually added. The Countess's expression was not quite right.

They did think that Gu Yanwei was outstanding, but they still made fun of her. They were all from wealthy families and had seen many family conflicts. Gu Yanwei's frequent visits to the Huo family suggested that she was up to no good.

Their husbands had always been fickle and difficult to control. If everyone copied Gu Yanwei and seduced their husbands, that would be terrible!

"Young Madam, you're right. Miss Gu should also avoid suspicion."

"That's right. After all, it's my sister's house..."
