Chapter 140: Giving away cards at will? How cold-blooded!
Wen Yao raised an eyebrow and casually closed the window.
Gu Zhu asked almost impatiently, "Yao Yao, have you ever heard of the concept of 'rebirth'?"
For a moment, Wen Yao almost thought she was hallucinating.
A hint of doubt appeared on her delicate, porcelain-white face.
"Rebirth means that a person has the opportunity to start their life over again." Gu Zhu said mysteriously, "I'll tell you a secret, Gu Yan was reborn!"
Wen Yao: "..."
The girl's face showed even greater confusion.
It's almost as if they just wrote five words: Are you alright?
"How did you know?" Wen Yao asked.
Gu Zhu had anticipated this problem.
Of course, she wouldn't admit that she was reborn; instead, she made up another excuse.
"Actually, I've always had precognitive dreams..."
"In my dreams, I can always predict what will happen in the future."
"At first I didn't believe it, but as my precognitive dreams gradually came true, I began to believe that I had this ability..."
Wen Yao: "What are you trying to say?"
Her reaction was too bland, completely contrary to Gu Zhu's expectations.
I didn't expect this idiot to be so hard to fool!
Gu Zhu gritted her teeth, adopting a "what the heck" stance:
"Yaoyao, actually, I wasn't targeting you these past few days; I was just protecting myself!"
Wen Yao smiled.
It turns out that people really can't help but laugh when they're confused or for no reason.
She crossed her arms and said lazily, "Tell me more."
Gu Zhu was secretly delighted, thinking that Wen Yao believed her:
"Because I foresaw through my dream that Gu Yan had been reborn!"
"He was vilified by the entire internet in his past life, which twisted his mind. As a result, even after his rebirth, he still harbors hatred towards everyone and tries every means to take revenge on them!"
"I pretended to be at odds with you so as not to arouse his suspicion... It was all a scheme! Not just for myself, but for your own good!"
Wen Yao pinched her arm to stop herself from bursting out laughing.
Clearly, Gu Zhu has some brains, but not many.
She wanted to see what Gu Zhu was really up to, after all her lies.
Seeing that Wen Yao's attitude remained indifferent, Gu Zhu began to feel uneasy, unsure of Wen Yao's true thoughts.
"Yaoyao, aren't you afraid Gu Yan will retaliate against you... He has a hidden antisocial personality, he's terrifying!"
"so what?"
Gu Zhu finally revealed her true intentions: "Therefore, I think we need to form an alliance! Let's join forces to fight against Gu Yan!"
“I know that you two don’t get along at all. The reason you two interact so much is just for the audience to see.”
"But as long as we cooperate, you won't have to force yourself in the future. I have the advantage of foresight and can help you be your most authentic self!"
It turned out to be the case.
God knows what's wrong with Gu Zhu's brain!
She actually wanted to win me over?
Wen Yao was truly convinced, completely convinced.
"Are you sure... it's him who was reborn?" Wen Yao asked meaningfully.
"Of course! I'm 100% sure!" Gu Zhu said confidently.
Wen Yao smiled slightly, maintaining her politeness.
"I am not interested."
Gu Zhu panicked. If Wen Yao didn't stand by her side, Gu Yan would really kill her!
He's been reborn, and he'll definitely take revenge tenfold, a hundredfold, just like she treated him in his previous life...
But if we succeed in winning over Wen Yao, things will be different.
Wen Yao has martial arts skills, and she has intelligence. If the two of them are combined, wouldn't they be able to kill indiscriminately?
The real and fake heiresses reconcile and become best friends. This plot twist is sure to captivate the audience.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhu's tone unconsciously became more ingratiating, even obsequious:
"Yaoyao, it's okay if you don't believe me. I'll help you predict the future, okay?"
Wen Yao asked lazily, "What did you foresee?"
"Gu Yan is not your only brother!" Gu Zhu said shockingly. "You have another brother! He went to the Gu family to look for you! If you don't believe me, you can call Dad."
Wen Yao frowned.
What nonsense is Gu Zhu spouting?
"How long have you been experiencing these delusional symptoms? Have you seen a doctor at a good mental hospital?"
Gu Zhu said confidently, "You'll soon find out whether I'm telling the truth or not!"
Before her rebirth, she and Wen Yao didn't have much interaction.
This secret was the only thing she knew about Wen Yao in her past life.
—It was her obstruction that dissuaded Gu's father from informing Wen Yao.
It was clear that Wen Yao didn't take it to heart, which made Gu Zhu panic.
She knew nothing about other things related to Wen Yao.
She had a sudden inspiration and began to paint a rosy picture for Wen Yao:
"Yaoyao, in my precognitive dream, I will get engaged to the Crown Prince, and we will have a grand engagement banquet of the century..."
"Moreover, the Crown Prince's uncle, Fu Qianchuan, will also fall in love with me, and he will even try to steal the bride at the engagement banquet for my sake..."
Wen Yao: "...Is that so?"
"Of course, you might not believe it, but those things really happened in my past life!"
Gu Zhu made a solemn vow.
“Yaoyao, with your abilities, going to Paradise Island today shouldn’t be difficult. You can borrow a phone from a passerby and call your father. The truth will come out.”
...
Throughout the afternoon, Wen Yao found Gu Zhu's words laughable every time she thought about them.
Wen Yao once again won first place in the challenge task assigned by the program team.
Upon arriving at Paradise Island, Wen Yao was eager to play Monopoly.
As for calling Gu's father, she had long since forgotten about it.
Unexpectedly, instead of seeking out Mr. Gu, he came to her door.
Mr. Gu, looking travel-worn and with slightly graying temples, secretly slipped Wen Yao a few bags of snacks:
"Yaoyao, these are all Zhuzhu's favorite foods. Please pass them on to her for Daddy."
Wen Yao replied casually, "I'm busy."
In the live stream, Gu Zhu's fans were beaming with pride.
I knew Gu's father still loved Zhuzhu!
Our Zhuzhu is truly a little princess who has been pampered and spoiled since childhood!
[Wen Yao has broken down her defenses! Your dad doesn't love you, he only loves Zhuzhu, hehe~~~]
...
The next moment, Gu's father pulled out a supplementary credit card:
"Yaoyao, this is for you. You can eat or drink whatever you want. Go and buy it secretly when the crew isn't looking."
Director Cui: "..."
Director Cheng: "..."
Uncle, do you think we're all dead?
The live chat was immediately filled with question marks from fans of the pearl.
The viewers in the live stream, however, thoroughly enjoyed the show.
When will pig fans understand the principle of where money and love are? /heart/heart
[Yes, yes, yes, giving Teacher Pig a few bags of cheap snacks is fatherly love, but giving him a credit card to swipe at will? How cold! That's not fatherly love at all!]
Ultimately, it's all thanks to Mei Bao's mom's support. All the Wen and Gu families' assets will belong to Mei Bao in the future, so how could Gu's dad dare to show her any disrespect?
...
"Yaoyao... Daddy has something to tell you..."
Father Gu carefully observed Wen Yao's expression.
“A young man came to visit the Gu family. He said… he was your brother…”
