Chapter 1291: Chapter 1292 The Show Has Begun (1)
"Where is Young Master Gu? Hey, did Young Master Gu ntion when he’ll arrive?"
In the garden outside the mansion, three socialites led out by a waiter were adjusting their outfits as they walked, their faces flushed with excitent.
They had long admired Gu Yelin, the Third Young Master Gu, and he had actually invited them! How could they not be thrilled?!
"He’ll be here soon. Young Master Gu ntioned he wanted to find a quiet place to have a chat with you ladies." The waiter smiled politely, turned back to bow slightly, then turned around to lead the way.
The three won exchanged a glance, seeing the excitent mirrored in each other’s eyes.
To leave a good impression on Gu Yelin, they remained silent, following the waiter quietly into the secluded little garden.
It was noon, under the most scorching sun, with the blazing rays relentlessly drawing moisture from their bodies. All the servants in the large mansion had retreated indoors to escape the heat. In the vast garden, only a black Tibetan mastiff lay languidly in its nest, lifting its eyelids briefly at the sound of footsteps, then lazily closing them again.
"Please wait in the pavilion, ladies. Young Master Gu will co over after settling Miss An. You all understand how these things are..."
With that, the waiter gave them a aningful smile and left without looking back.
The won blushed at the waiter’s ambiguous words, their hearts pounding with excitent, like deer running wild. Daintily seated in the pavilion, they endured the sweltering heat for the first ti in their lives.
Just then, a faint sound pierced the air, and under the blinding sun, several cold, silver flashes passed by, rendering the three won in the pavilion unconscious in an instant.
A gust of wind swept through, and the pavilion was suddenly empty.
Inside the banquet hall, the revelry continued, the chilling coolness contrasting starkly with the fierce heat outside.
An Yiqing, who was chatting with soone, suddenly received a call, her smile growing even brighter. Her eyes casually swept over Guh Siyi, who seed distracted, and a subtle chill surfaced at the corner of her eye.
In the distance, Huang Yiyi, accompanying Guh Siyi, searched irritably among the crowd but found that the people she was looking for had all vanished.
"Damn it! I knew these won were all just pretty faces, falling apart at the critical mont. They must be watching from sowhere, wanting to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight as we execute our plan!"
Guh Siyi frowned and whispered to Huang Yiyi, "Forget about those won for now and stick to the plan. You go get An Yiqing, I’ll bring him over in a bit."
"Got it, don’t worry, Senior Sister! An Yiqing won’t escape this ti!"
Huang Yiyi glanced at An Yiqing in the distance, then moved to a secluded corner and waved a waiter over.
"Give this note to Miss An. Here’s your tip, rember, don’t spill a word or you’ll never work in Xuandu City again."
The waiter was taken aback by the number of zeros on the check before him. He quickly pocketed it and nodded rapidly in agreent.
"Yes! Yes, I won’t say a word!" he said. Co on! People die for money just as birds die for food! He didn’t understand the affairs of the wealthy, he’d grab the money and run!
Huang Yiyi gave a disdainful glance at the simpering waiter and impatiently waved him away.
anwhile, Guh Siyi, who had made a round of toasts in the hall, slowly ca to a stop, her face sowhat pale.
"Wait a minute, I need a rest, I’m too tired."
