Chapter 542: Chapter 371: Reaping the Benefits of a Fisher_1
Tang Wan didn’t notice Qin Shurong’s abnormality, her mood was extremely good, she couldn’t help but want to share with Qin Shurong, “Yes, Little Pear and I hit it off right away, I’ve already taken her as my goddaughter.”
“What?”
Qin Shurong could hardly believe her eyes, she didn’t expect at all that Tang Wan would like Gu Li so much, so much so that she took her as her goddaughter upon first meeting, this was not a good sign at all.
Although she despised the nasty girl whom the Tang family had just acknowledged, she hated and feared Gu Li even more.
Seeing her surprised, Tang Wan gave a slight smile, “Your mother and Xiaoyue had the exact same reaction when they heard about it.”
Qin Shurong suppressed the displeasure in her heart, pretending to ask: “That’s because it’s too abrupt. It seems, you really like Gu Li, don’t you?”
Tang Wan nodded, “You could say we just clicked.”
At this point, she couldn’t help but sigh, “If Tang Tang could be half as sensible as Gu Li, I wouldn’t be so troubled.”
Qin Shurong immediately comforted her, “Tang Tang just returned to the Tang family, she hasn’t gotten used to becoming a cultured and graceful young lady yet. Don’t stress yourself out Aunt, she won’t let you down.”
Tang Wan thoughtfully nodded, “I hope so.”
Qin Shurong sneakily curved her lips, that girl was so coarse and hot-tempered, she was probably never gonna learn how to become cultured and graceful.
However, she could exploit that girl to make Aunt drop the idea of associating with Gu Li.
Thinking of this, Qin Shurong asked, “Where is Tang Tang? Why didn’t she accompany you to see off the guests?”
Tang Wan quickly concealed the dark color in her eyes, casually saying: “She’s… I don’t know where she ran off to.”
“Really?”
Qin Shurong’s eyes darted around before she volunteered, “It’s already so late, how about I go look for her? A girl alone outside, generally speaking, it’s worrisome.”
“Hmm, you should go.”
Tang Wan didn’t stop her.
“Alright, I’ll go now.”
Upon seeing Tang Wan’s seeming indifference towards Tang Tang, Qin Shurong found it peculiar. Could it be that Aunt preferred Gu Li over her own biological daughter?
That would explain why she’d been neglecting her own daughter since recognizing Gu Li as her goddaughter.
…
Downtown, a nightlife bar.
When Qin Shurong arrived, the impostor girl was having a great time with a bunch of shady-looking guys and ignoring her.
Actually, the more corrupt the impostor girl becomes, the happier Qin Shurong is. However, to maintain her big-sister persona, she couldn’t show her happiness openly. So, she sternly said to the impostor girl, “Go home with me, don’t make your mom worry.”
The impostor girl aggressively pushed her away, “Who are you? Is it any of your business if I go home or not? Scram!”
No sooner had she spoken than those guys joined in, “Beauty, join us, we don’t mind having another beauty for company.”
Qin Shurong coldly declined, “No need.”
She wouldn’t waste her time on this bunch.
Seeing the impostor girl refusing to go with her, Qin Shurong simply reached out and grabbed her, “If you don’t go home, be careful of someone taking your mother away.”
The impostor girl’s face changed instantly, but she quickly recovered, “So what if she recognizes Gu Li as her goddaughter. It’s no big deal.”
“No big deal? I just received news that your mother is considering giving Gu Li 10% of the Tang Group’s shares as a welcome gift.”
Of course, this news was fabricated by Qin Shurong, meant to infuriate the faux-girl.
Only by provoking the impostor girl’s hostility towards Gu Li and making the two fight to the death, could she reap the benefits.
