Chapter 235: Chapter 240: Seems Like a Scam
Translator: 549690339 |
Gu Qingxin’s lips were swollen and flushed from his kisses, and in the end, Beiming Han, utterly tormented, had to force her hand to finish him off…
When Gu Qingxin got out of the car, her legs were somewhat weak. She fled into the school, without daring to turn her head back, her entire body burning as if she were feverish.
Only after Xiao Ya’s figure disappeared at the school entrance did Beiming Han order the driver to drive away.
Beiming Han’s eyes were still fixated on that entrance when the driver suddenly hit the brakes…
Beiming Han’s body lurched forward, and he asked displeasedly, “What’s going on?”
“Young Master, it seems there’s a scammer up front. I’ll go and get rid of them,” the bodyguard explained as he opened the partition window.
Beiming Han looked outside and spotted a woman sprawled in front of the car. It was the female classmate who had framed Gu Qingxin.
Xiao Ya’s half-sister from a different mother.
“No need, just go around her,” Beiming Han said indifferently, his gaze shifting away.
Following his instruction, the driver reversed the car a bit and then drove away.
Gu YunCi kept on feigning weakness, purposely portraying a pitiful appearance, hoping to catch Beiming Han’s attention. However, the car simply bypassed her…
A good-hearted student who was passing by approached her and asked, “Classmate, do you need help?”
Gu YunCi’s expression was slightly rigid. Stifling her urge to scream, she gently brushed back her long hair and answered, “If it’s not too much trouble, could you help me up?”
The obliging student immediately helped her to her feet.
After school, Gu YunCi deliberately followed Gu Qingxin outside the school. Seeing Gu Qingxin getting into a luxurious sedan car, jealousy twisted painfully in her chest.
When Peng Pan received a call from Gu YunCi, she was out on the street handing out leaflets.
“Do one more job for me, I’ll pay you thirty thousand.”
“Another plot against Gu Qingxin? Gu YunCi, I’ve come to realize that having you as a sister makes Gu Qingxin truly pitiable! You took her innocence last time, how are you planning to harm her now?”
“Cut the chatter, don’t you want the money?” Gu YunCi replied impatiently.
“Of course, I need the money! Tell me what you want me to do!”
After school, Gu Qingxin came to the hospital to see Lin Yin. As soon as she walked through the hospital’s main entrance, a child handed her a piece of paper.
By the time Gu Qingxin turned back, the child had already walked away.
Gu Qingxin unfolded the paper. It held a single sentence; a message from Peng Pan telling her to meet at a specific location where something she had been wanting to know would be revealed.
The location Peng Pan had written down was a small bar where she and Peng Pan had once worked together.
Knowing and being familiar with the place, Gu Qingxin went there alone.
The one thing she wanted to do right now was to confront Peng Pan and ask why she, who considered her a friend, would choose to harm her. Were friends meant to betray each other?
Gu Qingxin took a taxi there. Upon arrival, she headed straight for the private room where Peng Pan said she’d be.
She opened the door and walked in to find Peng Pan inside, as expected.
“So, you finally agreed to meet!” Gu Qingxin walked into the room and sat across from Peng Pan.
“Qingxin, it’s been a while,” Peng Pan greeted her with a smile, as if they hadn’t had the incident at the hotel.
“Peng Pan, I’ve always considered you my best friend. Why did you betray me? Don’t you realize what you’ve made me lose!” Gu Qingxin looked at her, her gaze icy cold.
Peng Pan looked at the unbelievably beautiful watch on her wrist, her eyes flashing with greed….
