Gu Wenjuan, it seems like she cos from a good family background.
Because the BMW driver called her "Miss," very respectfully yet also familiarly.
By the ti they arrived at their destination, her colleagues inevitably started to inquire, one way or another.
Gu Wenjuan seed a bit modest and hesitant to answer, saying, "It’s just an ordinary family, my elders just spoil a bit."
An ordinary family, having a BMW 5 Series as a nanny car?
An ordinary family, no matter how much they spoil their child, could afford to buy her a whole wardrobe of luxury goods?
People in the office were convinced that Gu Wenjuan was just being modest and low-profile.
That day, Gu Wenjuan experienced for the first ti the feeling of being the star everyone else gathered around.
Everyone’s attention was focused on her.
While these people were playful, their level of attention towards her was unprecedented.
They offered her warmth and attention, tended to her with detail, and even their gazes towards her were different.
"Wen Nuan, I toast to you."
"What toast, Wen Nuan is a girl, she’s still going back to stay with her family later, better not to drink."
"We haven’t heard from Wen Nuan yet, who are you to say?"
"Oh, your Wen Nuan? She clearly belongs to our family!"
"Stop arguing, stop arguing, she’s mine!"
Everyone was just joking around, not taking it seriously.
Gu Wenjuan, hearing this, couldn’t help but feel sentintal inside.
Indeed, once a person changes, so does their treatnt.
Gu Wenjuan excused herself to go outside to the restroom, and while touching up her makeup there, she unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.
He Yong’er hadn’t expected to see Gu Wenjuan there, and aside from being surprised, she also noticed that Gu Wenjuan had changed.
Her entire presence seed gilded, completely different from her previous ordinary and humble appearance.
The old Gu Wenjuan, at first glance, looked gentle and refined, albeit a bit ek.
Now, she radiated a confident aura.
The contrast was stark.
"Wen Nuan?" He Yong’er expressed her surprise, "You’ve changed so much, you look so beautiful now!"
Gu Wenjuan, always pleased to receive complints, touched her face subconsciously, smiling broadly, "Yong’er, long ti no see."
He Yong’er was there with friends, Fang Tiantian included, and warmly invited Gu Wenjuan to join them in their private room.
Upon hearing Fang Tiantian was also there, Gu Wenjuan’s initial reluctance strangely faded away.
She was half-pulled into their private room, and upon seeing Fang Tiantian’s astonished face, she felt a gratifying sense of triumph, greeting her, "Tiantian, long ti no see."
The group had heard about Gu Wenjuan before and was extrely curious about her experiences.
After so questions, Gu Wenjuan shared her story.
Their circle was not large after all, He Yong’er knew Zhuang Ziqi, a top student familiar with the Zhuang family affairs.
Listening to Gu Wenjuan’s account, He Yong’er reflected, "So that’s how it is..."
Gu Wenjuan looked down and said, "Yeah, I just feel sorry for troubling my grandpa."
He Yong’er warmly said, "How can that be trouble? According to you, your grandpa feels much guilt towards your grandma, and since you look a lot like her, to him, you are his savior. Just think about it, you have fulfilled his wish, and you’ve always been kind and gentle. He has every reason to like you, but just make sure you don’t bring that old sense of inferiority into this new family, it would be devaluing, don’t disgrace the family of wealth."
Those words hit Gu Wenjuan right where it hurt.
