Upon seeing it, Xia Yangyang was shocked to find it was a picture of herself and Lu Haotian.

In the photo, the boy-girl duo looked somewhat naive. The lad had his arm around the girl’s shoulder, possessing a sunny and handsome smile on his face.

Xia Yangyang disliked taking photos, and this picture was taken after Lu Haotian begged for a long time. They only took two photos together.

Each placed the photograph in their respective wallets, carrying it with them wherever they went.

After that incident, Xia Yangyang had torn her copy of the photo into pieces.

Unexpectedly, Lu Haotian’s copy had ended up in Gong Xue’er’s hands.

A sharp pain stung Xia Yangyang’s heart.

Xia Yangyang demanded, “Give it to me!”

Gong Xue’er chuckled and replied, “I will indeed return the photo to you. I mean, nowadays, the photo in Haotian’s wallet is of both of us anyway. As long as you come with me tonight and help me persuade Gu Qichen to agree to an interview, I’ll give you back the photo.”

In the end, Xia Yangyang had to compromise. Because the photo was now in Gong Xue’er’s hands, she felt utterly disgusted.

Triumphant, Gong Xue’er said, “Go fetch the equipment. We should try our best to interview Gu Qichen tonight. Even if we can’t, filming the engagement banquet meticulously arranged by the Gu Family would also make headlining news.”

The reason Gong Xue’er insisted on taking Xia Yangyang along was firstly to confirm whether Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen truly had nothing going on between them.

Secondly, Gong Xue’er knew that she didn’t have enough influence to persuade Gu Qichen to agree to an interview. But Xia Yangyang was different. She was a well-known heiress in Feng City who had interned under Gu Qichen. Since Gu Qichen was willing to step forward when she was in a tight spot, Xia Yangyang might have a sliver of hope of persuading him to agree to an interview. (f)reenovelkiss

If Gong Xue’er managed to secure an exclusive interview with Gu Qichen, the Lu Family might recognize her abilities and regard her in a new light, which was her ultimate goal.

By the time Xia Yangyang brought the equipment over, Gong Xue’er had already changed her clothes and was waiting for her in the taxi.

Gong Xue’er had changed into a fishtail evening dress and had put on delicate make-up.

Her appearance wasn’t bad to begin with, so after make-up, she looked even more stunning.

In contrast, Xia Yangyang was dressed in ordinary student attire.

Gong Xue’er glanced at Xia Yangyang and said, “Get in.”

The car journey was smooth, and by the time they arrived at Gu Manor, it was already dark.

Gu Manor was located in the city center and rumor had it that it was a converted royal palace. The posh building embraced both Eastern and Western architectural styles. The main mansion was a standalone white building nestled among towering trees. Through the carved main gate, you could see the inside was resplendent with light, making it look like Buckingham Palace.

There were two black-suited security guards at the carved gate. Guests who drove over needed to roll down their car windows and show their invitations before they could drive in.

Only Xia Yangyang and Gong Xue’er had arrived by taxi, so they had to get off and walk to the big gate.

Gong Xue’er took out her invitation. The security guard took a glance and said, “The invitation is fake, ma’am, please leave.”

Gong Xue’er contended, “Impossible. I was invited by your master. Why are you saying my invitation is fake?”

While Gong Xue’er was arguing with the security guard, Xia Yangyang walked over, took a look at the invitation, and confirmed, “It’s indeed fake. The Gu Family’s invitations have Gu Shengyuan’s unique seal in the lower right corner, and this one doesn’t.”

Xia Yangyang had seen a genuine invitation before.

Turning to face Xia Yangyang, Gong Xue’er reluctantly expressed, “You knew it was fake all along, why didn’t you tell me? Are you deliberately mocking me?”
