Gu Minmin crossed her arms, gazing at her with indifferent eyes, her expression flat.

But no matter how calm her face was, she couldn’t hide the irritation in her heart, and the strong sense of bitterness and jealousy.

"Is there something you need?" Her attitude was cold.

Le Jiani wasn’t disappointed by this. She applied red lipstick, curling her lips into a weak smile: "Naturally, there’s something. Before we speak, let me introduce myself. I’m Le Jiani, your senior, so you should call me Senior Le."

"Ha!"

Gu Minmin’s response was a cold snort.

She glanced at the woman sitting on the bench in front of her, her eyebrows filled with mockery and disdain.

Even if the bitterness in her heart was about to drown her, she didn’t show it at all, maintaining a high and mighty demeanor, just like her cousin Gu Jin, who could always remain calm like the wind.

A hint of gloom flashed in Le Jiani’s eyes, but the smile on her face didn’t change.

She lowered her eyes to look at her belly, as if it was the most precious thing in the world, gently stroking it with her hand.

She spoke with a face full of happiness: "I’m pregnant with Brother Hai’s child."

"..."

Gu Minmin could no longer maintain her calmness.

Her hands clenched tightly into fists, her nails digging into her flesh unbeknownst to her.

The gazes of the two women collided in the void, like an invisible battle, secretly competing with each other.

After a while, Gu Minmin curled her lips, speaking word by word: "What does it have to do with me? If you’re pregnant with someone’s child, go find them, there’s no use coming to me!"

After saying this, she turned and left, her back quick and resolute.

Le Jiani stood up, her body swaying, as if she was very weak.

She shouted at Gu Minmin’s back: "I hope you won’t go looking for Brother Hai in the future, and don’t pester him anymore!"

Gu Minmin’s figure suddenly halted.

She turned back, her gaze cold as she looked at Le Jiani: "Did he tell you that I’m pestering him?!"

Le Jiani’s eyes were smiling, silent like a victor, which undoubtedly confirmed it.

Gu Minmin’s delicate face twisted for a moment, as she tried hard to control the anger in her heart.

So, in Qiu Qianghai’s eyes, she was someone who pestered him.

Recalling their interactions in Wanhai City, it seemed she had no reason to refute.

She indeed always followed closely behind him, every time it was she who took the initiative to close the distance between them.

She liked Qiu Qianghai and desired to be close to him, keeping him in her heart.

Isn’t that what liking someone means?

Even if the two of them spent a day together without talking, she enjoyed such beautiful moments.

It’s just that the other party told this past affection of hers to another woman as if it were a joke, which hurt her deeply.

"I understand."

Gu Minmin calmly left that sentence behind and turned to walk on.

From now on, she would never get close to that man again, never pester him again.

They would become strangers.

She hated Qiu Qianghai, hated him to death!

Le Jiani watched her departing figure, her eyes showing a gleam of satisfaction but also weakness.

She had lost her job, lost the major client Mr. Qiu, and lost a huge sum of money; now she had also lost the right to be a mother—how could she be content!

Everyone would have to pay the price for her losses.

It all started because of Gu Minmin’s appearance.

Even if she was the sister of the Shijiu Entertainment Company’s boss, she deserved to die!

If it weren’t for her, she would still enjoy her past glory and wouldn’t have experienced any of this.

This is only the beginning; she will make everyone pay the price.
