As soon as Gu Yin had left, the light smile on Gu Zhi’s face vanished fully, leaving solely a chilly indifference as she regarded on the doll with rising disdain and slapped it laborious a number of instances.
“A damaged rabbit doll, is it higher than the one I gave?” Gu Zhi scornfully muttered to herself, neglecting the truth that the one she had gifted was merely an affordable knock-off from a avenue stall, whereas Gu Dai’s rabbit doll was price tens of 1000’s.
Considering of how simply Gu Yin had been deceived, believing the poison to be merely sleeping capsules after a couple of phrases from her, Gu Zhi’s eyes brimmed with malicious satisfaction, whispering, “Youngsters are so gullible.

Sheng Xin regarded on the good-looking man earlier than her, her coronary heart racing.
She had met many males overseas and had a couple of relationships, however none in comparison with Music Ling.
With out ready for a solution, Music Ling said, “I’ve been married earlier than. Does that trouble you?”
Sheng Xin smiled, “Why ought to it? 1 was conscious earlier than I got here.”
With a pursed-lip smile, Sheng Xin added, “I do know your ex-wife was crude and didn’t perceive the intricacies of excessive society. Attributable to her background, you couldn’t take her to social occasions, which should have been an important embarrassment for you throughout your marriage.”
