Chapter 245 - Having Double Standards Was Pretty Nice
Obviously, Xie Yuning looked down on Gu Qingjiu by a mile.
The Gu Qingjiu of the past was like an invisible person.
She was the kind of person you wouldn’t even remember. Even if you do, she was likened to a punching bag that you could vent your anger on.
From the bottom of her heart, she despised her.
But now, she’d seen Gu Qingjiu’s massive change!
Xie Yuning had make-up on, but Gu Qingjiu had a prettier face than her.
Xie Yuning would obviously not take it lying down.
An invisible person who she used to trample on… How could that person be more eye-catching than her?
Gu Qingjiu could see the envy flashing in Xie Yuning eyes, but she had no time nor effort to waste with her. After checking the time, she turned around to walk away.
“Gu Qingjiu, what? Are you so guilty that you can’t admit it?”
Xie Yuning didn’t want to let her go. She wanted Gu Qingjiu to admit it before she would stop pestering her.
She walked up and grabbed Gu Qingjiu’s elbow.
Sensing that her hand was grasping her arm, Gu Qingjiu nimbly twisted her wrist. With a slight force, she managed to remove Xie Yuning’s arm from her elbow.
She swept the hand away and frowned. And as she looked at Xie Yuning, it was as if she was looking at a lunatic. “What do I have to admit? Xie Yuning, something’s wrong with your head. I kindly advise you to get it checked out at the hospital as soon as possible.”
Her words were unkind. Xie Yuning’s lackeys who originally thought Xie Yuning’s actions to be too abrupt suddenly felt indignant for her.
“Gu Qingjiu, how can you say that about Yuning? What did she do?”
“That’s right. She just wanted to talk to you since we were classmates. Is there a need for you to act this way?”
“We’re just asking you if you did plastic surgery. I think this clinic is pretty good since there aren’t even any traces of scars.”
They added on to one another’s statements as if trying to pin the crime of plastic surgery on Gu Qingjiu. They were blatantly insulting her.
They were at a department store and since it was the weekend, it was rather crowded.
Their voices were not soft either. With a ton of passersby, they quickly attracted everyone’s attention.
Hearing the words ‘plastic surgery’, people turned their attention to Gu Qingjiu, as if seeing something interesting.
With everyone’s attention on them, Xie Yuning felt gleeful.
“Plastic surgery? Me?” Gu Qingjiu frowned as she turned a vicious glare at the female classmate who said that. “If there’s something wrong with your head, you should seek treatment soon. I haven’t seen you in a while after I entered the army. Now that I’m back, you’re suddenly accusing me of plastic surgery. Wow, we truly are old classmates who just met. How shameless. With the nonsense you’re spouting from that mouth of yours, aren’t you afraid that your tongue will be cut off one day?”
Gu Qingjiu’s words made people fear from within.
That female classmate who Gu Qingjiu was staring at was one of Xie Yuning’s lackeys.
But Gu Qingjiu didn’t really have an impression of the said classmate. These last few years of memories coupled with her rebirth, she basically couldn’t remember her name at all.
But she did have a nasty mouth.
That student shuddered in fear as she shrunk to hide behind Xie Yuning.
Xie Yuning was shocked at how rude Gu Qingjiu’s words were.
The other two pointed at Gu Qingjiu as they criticized. “We were just casually saying it. How could you say this, things like wanting to cut off Xiaoxiao’s tongue, you’re too scary!”
The dirty water continued to pour on her.
Gu Qingjiu pursed her lips into a smile. “It’s just a joke between old classmates. What? So you can claim that I had plastic surgery, but I cannot talk about you? Having double standards must be pretty nice.”
