Chapter 591: Chapter 595
Author: Gu Rong Rong Machine Translation
If it had not been for Chu Xinlan's interference, Chu Yun would have married into the Gu family.
2She was willing to betray her half-sister and seduce Gu Zexi at all costs.
2Chu Xinlan did not want to argue with Chu Yun anymore. Besides, Gu Zexi was still by her side. She did not want to bring up the past again.
2"Gu Zexi, let's go."
2Gu Zexi had chosen not to participate in the sisters' tit-for-tat conversation. When he saw that Chu Xinlan was tired of arguing with her sister, he nodded calmly and held her hand again.
2There were many people at the banquet. Gu Ruochu did not recognize several of the guests in attendance. She could only nod and smile beside Huo Nanchen until the banquet was almost over.
2The President and the First Lady finally approached the couple.
2"Madam Huo, I think we've met at the hospital before." Gu Xiangxi looked elegant and dignified as she stood by the President's side.
2After Gu Zexi had rejected her for a second time, Chu Yun had decided to stick by Gu Xiangsi's side for the rest of the night.
2"Please forgive me for accidentally bumping into you last time." Since Gu Xiangxi had already brought up the matter, Gu Ruochu could not pretend that she did not know her.
2"It's nothing. I was just careless," Gu Xiangsi replied politely. She fell into a trance for a moment before her beautiful smile returned.
2"I don't know what's going on. I feel very close to you when I see you. I hope that you can come to the President's residence in the capital when you have time in the future."
2"I will. Thank you, Madam."
2Gu Ruochu did not know if the First Lady meant what she said, but she smiled and nodded.
2It was the first time that Chu Yun had met Gu Ruochu in person. She could not help but sneer when she saw the innocent look on Gu Ruochu's face.
2A majority of people in the upper-class society had heard about Mrs. Huo's dislike for the Presidential Palace. Gu Ruochu would surely get into trouble with her mother-in-law if she decided to visit the First Lady.
2"Xiangsi, do you think that you can use Gu Ruochu?" Chu Yun asked as they walked away from her.
2"I've already done her a favor, and given the fact that I'm the President's wife, she'll definitely stand on my side."
2Gu Xiangsi knew that her position as the First Lady wielded a lot of power. She was especially angry with Mrs. Huo for failing to attend the banquet. Gu Xiangsi had sent her an invitation, but she had refused to show up.
2Wasn't that a slap in the face?
2Since that old woman had dared to provoke her, Gu Xiangsi would teach her a lesson.
2Aside from that reason, Gu Xiangsi also thought that Huo Nanchen would be a useful ally. If she could win him over, she would enjoy many benefits in the future.
2"But I heard that her mother-in-law is very powerful. How would Gu Ruochu dare to oppose her mother-in-law? How would she listen to you?"
2The relationship between the Huo family and the President was rather delicate. Mrs. Huo had blatantly chosen to ignore the President's invitation.
2Gu Xiangsi smiled. She was very confident about the plan she had in mind. "Don't worry. I have my methods."
2"As expected of an imposing First Lady." Chu Yun naturally flattered her.
2After the banquet came to an end, Gu Ruochu followed Huo Nanchen back to the Huo family home.
2"Are you tired?"
