Chapter 21 Horror Story

 Gu Rong took a few deep breaths and asked Jade directly,

"What other shops are there under Gu Xi's name? Is it all the dowry prepared by her parents for her? Now that I'm back, will at least half of it be transferred to me?"

Jade pursed her lips and shook her head. She first advised Gu Rong not to be angry, and then continued,

"Miss, the matter in the shop is not what you think. These are not the dowry given to the eldest lady by the palace. They are private properties purchased by the eldest lady herself. They have nothing to do with the Hou family."

The implication is that it is impossible to transfer it to your name.

"What?! Gu Xi's private property?! How can her parents agree to her purchasing private property?!"

Gu Rong couldn't believe it. This had a greater impact on her than the sixth prince being Gu Xi's suitor. The slap on her face hurt so much.

"Miss, you have forgotten what I said before. The eldest lady has been in charge of the housekeeper for many years, and Mrs. Marquis has no care." Jade said.

"Oh, I understand! It was Gu Xi who enriched his own pockets and used the money from the house to buy private property for himself. This is really too much!

Even though she can understand that her father and mother loved her before, she is not of the Marquis family at all, so she should spit out the money she swallowed!"

Gu Rong thought she understood the truth and said angrily.

"..." Jade.

Forget it, let’s make it clear to the lady.

Then, Gu Rong heard an incredible story.

It turns out that before Gu Xi took charge of the family, the Hou Mansion was in decline and could not make ends meet, so he had to rely on his wife to supplement the dowry.

Nowadays, the mansion is full of pavilions, pavilions and flowers. In fact, they were all renovated in the past two years with the money earned by Gu Xi.

As for how many stores and how much money Gu Xi has in his hands, Feicui, as a slave, has no idea.

Gu Rong, "..."

This is not a horror story for her.

Three years ago, how old was Gu Xi? She must have traveled through time too!

How can a native be so powerful!

Gu Rong's previous complacency was gone, and she felt that Gu Xi was like a mountain peak, weighing on her head, making it difficult for her to surpass.

"Miss, the status of a businessman is the lowest. You have money but no status. No matter how much money you make, you will still be looked down upon. You don't have to take it to heart."

Jade comforted Gu Rong softly.

Gu Rong took a deep breath and thought that she was right. This is not the modern era where money is the most important thing, where money means father. This is the ancient times where hierarchy was deep and strict.

Identity, status and power are the most important.

She is the real daughter of the Hou family, and her background is firmly on Gu Xi's head.

"Surround the store for me, the princess, I will smash it today!"

Suddenly, an arrogant scolding brought Gu Rong back to her senses. She didn't care about her jealousy and quickly looked forward.

I saw a luxurious and noble carriage parked in front of Gu Xi's shop. There were seventeen or eight guards around it, as well as four maids and several servants. The formation was huge.

"Whose bicycle frame is this? Why did it sound like I was going to smash up Gu Xi's shop?" Gu Rong lowered her voice and asked with gloating.

This is only right, we can’t all be Gu Xi’s crazy fans, there must also be Gu Xi’s mortal enemies.

Look at the person in front of you, he has a good background.

"Miss, this is Princess Yaoguang. She and the eldest lady have always been at odds with each other and often quarreled with each other. Now that the eldest lady is in a state of decline, it is not surprising that she is looking for trouble."

Jade whispered in Gu Rong's ear.

As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Yaoguang got out of the carriage. Gu Rong stretched her neck and looked carefully, and saw a dignified and majestic woman covered in jewels and bright eyes and white teeth.

Except for the stunning woman who caught a glimpse of her on the carriage that day, Princess Yaoguang was the most beautiful and noble woman Gu Rong had ever seen.

Envy and jealousy flashed in Gu Rong's eyes, and she couldn't help asking Jade next to her.

"Who is more beautiful, Princess Yaoguang or Gu Xi?"

"Actually, Princess Yaoguang's beauty is unparalleled. The eldest lady is very charming. They are different types of beauties. But if we really want to compete, the eldest lady is better. This should be one of the reasons why the princess doesn't like the eldest lady.

."

When Gu Rong heard that, Gu Xi was actually more beautiful than Princess Yaoguang in front of her, and the jealousy in her heart couldn't help but burn even more intensely.

A possibility suddenly flashed through her mind: Could it be that the stunning woman she saw that day was Gu Xi?

That Gu Xi is so beautiful, she really looks like a fairy!

Because Princess Yaoguang shouted that she wanted to destroy the shop, her guards and domestic slaves quickly surrounded the shop, and the girls who were queuing up to buy rouge moisturizer ran away in fear.

"Oh, miss, wake up, it's not good! Princess Yaoguang is here to cause trouble, saying she wants to destroy the shop."

Xia Zhi, who was on the second floor, heard the noise, looked down again, and hurriedly shouted to Gu Xi, who was lying on the floor.

"I got it, Aunt Shuang will take care of it, don't worry." Gu Xi opened her eyes, there was no sleepiness inside, but she still didn't get up.

She didn't sleep at all just now. Maybe she had enough sleep in the morning and her body wasn't that tired.

But she wasn't used to lying down all the time, so Gu Xi simply practiced an internal skill called Yin Xi Jue.

After practicing it, it can not only greatly enhance the internal strength, but also restrain the person's aura, making it difficult for people to detect. It can be said to be a required skill for assassins.

In the dream, after Gu Xi accidentally obtained this technique, he has been unable to practice it because this technique is about staying still.

In the dream, she is restless. Perhaps because of this, she has never been successful.

Now, she just loves this immobility, and thinking that she will spend more time lying down in the future, she will start practicing again.

Not to mention, maybe her state of mind has changed, but now she understands the aspects of this technique that she could not understand in her previous life. After practicing for a while, she has already started to master it.

Gu Xi deeply felt that her life was much smoother and her luck seemed to be getting better after she became a salty fish.

Therefore, this further strengthened her determination to become a salty fish!

According to the salted fish principle, if someone comes to make trouble, as long as someone stands up, salted fish can just lie down and watch the fun.

No need to interfere!

"Miss, you, you really don't care? That's the unruly Princess Yaoguang. Can Aunt Shuang really handle it?" Xia Zhi asked worriedly.

Don’t worry, Aunt Shuang can handle it.”

Gu Xi finally got up, but just walked to the window to watch the excitement.

Alas, it’s just that I can’t see when I’m lying down, so I have to get up.
Chapter completed!
