Early morning.
The forest in winter was especially silent.
Shi i lay in her tent, having not slept all night.
The world outside the tent had gradually grown bright when suddenly, her mobile phone vibrated.
[Mu Nanke]: Senior Sister, are you awake?
[Shi i]: ?
[Mu Nanke]: I intended to go to the toilet, but now I’m lost, wuwuwu
[Shi i]: ...
Mu Nanke did not reply again.
Shi i, sleepless for the whole night, stretched and got dressed, but no matter where she looked, she couldn’t find Mu Nanke.
[Mu Nanke]: has started sharing location
Shi i glanced at it and realized there was indeed so distance.
The location seed to be deep inside the forest.
What a confused soul, even though the staff had already arranged a restroom, located just on the other side of where Mu Nanke was. Could she have run in the wrong direction?
Shi i followed the location, and after walking for an unknown length of ti, the cold mist of the forest enveloped her, making her shiver.
But as she walked on, she unexpectedly saw Tang Gu.
Tang Gu, holding a mobile phone, seed extrely surprised to see Shi i and said, "You actually ca."
Shi i’s gaze turned icy, "Where’s Xiao Ke?"
"She’s asleep in the tent, it was I who asked to et you," Tang Gu said with a face full of joy. "Because I knew, if it were I inviting you, you certainly wouldn’t have co, so... I had to spend so money to have soone hack Mu Nanke’s WeChat, you see."
Without a second thought, Shi i turned to leave.
"You’re here now, don’t you want to know why I asked to et you?"
Shi i kept walking, her tone cool and impatient, "I don’t."
"Do you know why Mr. Shi sought you out this ti?" Tang Gu’s voice rose, tinged with smugness.
Shi i paused in her steps.
Tang Gu moved closer to her, continuing, "Did you really think Mr. Shi considered you as Tang Wu? Don’t be so naïve. Even if he needed a stand-in for Tang Wu, it should have been , not you. After all, I’m Little Tang Wu, and who are you, exactly?"
With her back to Tang Gu, Shi i heard these words and found them sowhat amusing, responding with a faint smile, "You’re quite confident, aren’t you?"
Tang Gu’s heart sank.
Miss Bai had coached her to say these things, but she had no idea if it would work.
At least it kept her from leaving.
Tang Gu pressed on, "It’s you who’s unfoundedly confident, isn’t it? Do you know why, for all these years, there hasn’t been another woman by Mr. Shi’s side?"
Shi i turned around to face Tang Gu.
The smugness on Tang Gu’s face intensified, her expression full of self-satisfaction, "Because his heart has been taken already. If it weren’t for Miss Bai’s heart condition, she would have been Mrs. Shi, rightfully."
The coldness in Shi i’s eyes deepened.
Tang Gu felt a chill in the air that involuntarily straightened her spine.
Facing Shi i’s gaze, Tang Gu continued, though with a forced bravado, "Actually, Mr. Shi and Miss Bai have been secretly eting since before Tang Wu’s ti, sharing a Platonic love. With Tang Wu, it was just a physical relationship."
Shi i’s heart felt like it had been struck by sothing heavy.
"So now, what use is there in imitating Tang Wu? If you think that by doing this you can climb up the social ladder, then you’re mistaken. Mr. Shi likes Tang Wu solely for her body," Tang Gu walked closer, her face full of malice, word by word: "The one he truly loves is Miss Bai."
