Chapter 130: Choosing a Husband

~7 min read 1,297 words

Of course, Gu Mianmian did not know at this moment that he had actually misunderstood.

Gu Yeting had only just returned home a few minutes ago and sat down beside Gu Wenyan; how could Gu Wenyan possibly get up and leave immediately?

When Gu Yeting returned, she was flipping through this auction catalog, and when he brought up the topic, she answered casually.

In Gu Mianmian's eyes, it became that their relationship had already become exceptionally intimate.

Gu Yeting and Gu Wenyan both noticed Gu Mianmian's return at the same time; Gu Wenyan nodded and said nothing more.

Gu Yeting asked, "Where did you go?"

"I had afternoon tea with a few friends."

"Mm, have dinner at home tonight."

"Alright, brother..." Gu Mianmian walked over and sat down, just happening to see the auction catalog in Gu Wenyan's hand.

Gu Wenyan's finger happened to be resting on the page for the Kashmir Sapphire.

Gu Mianmian's mood suddenly fluctuated wildly; she endured and endured, but finally asked, "Do you like this sapphire necklace?"

Gu Wenyan answered casually, "I don't like it that much, but Gu Yeting just said this sapphire necklace is very precious, so I intend to bid on it to take a look."

Gu Wenyan looked at Gu Mianmian with a faint gaze: "Why, do you like it too?"

"... I, I don't like it; I just heard you two talking about it, so I was just curious."

"That's perfect." Gu Wenyan curled her lips, "Because if you like this sapphire, I have already prepared to bid on it, so even if you want it, I won't give it to you."

Such arrogant words from Gu Wenyan made Gu Mianmian clench her teeth: "If you like it, you wouldn't want to leave it for me, because my brothers would buy it for you, right?"

Gu Yeting frowned and said nothing, but Gu Wenyan just smiled faintly: "Why should others buy things for me? Gu Mianmian, in your heart, does everything you obtain need to rely on others? Whether it is parents or brothers, do you need them to spend this money?"

With one simple sentence, Gu Wenyan left Gu Mianmian speechless.

In Gu Mianmian's heart, this had always been her perception; no matter what she wanted, she only needed to tell her parents or her brothers...

They would satisfy all of her demands.

Gu Mianmian had always been the youngest child in the Gu Family, so as the most pampered young lady, she could easily obtain everything she wanted.

However, now many things were different from what she believed...

Gu Wenyan smiled faintly at this moment: "In my view, no matter what you want, you must strive for it yourself, rather than continuing to rely on others to give you everything you want."

Gu Mianmian couldn't help but retort: "Even if you don't ask your brothers, don't you still have to ask Bo Si Han?"

"Because you married him, you can take it for granted that you ask Bo Si Han for all of this; what difference is there between you and me?"

"Aren't they all the same?!"

Gu Wenyan asked back unhurriedly: "When did I ever say I wanted to ask Bo Si Han for it? Do I not have money of my own?"

Gu Mianmian said irritably: "When have you ever earned money? Although you are working at the Gu Group now, you haven't earned much of a salary, so how could you afford it?"

She sneered: "Do you know how much this sapphire necklace is worth? The starting bid is tens of millions, and the final price will very likely exceed one hundred million! Even if you work hard, you won't have the opportunity to earn that much money in a short time..."

Gu Mianmian said as a matter of course: "If I don't ask my parents at a time like this, what else can I do? Besides, if my brothers are willing to give it to me, that is their willingness; it's not like I forced them..."

"Mm, so that's why I say, a person still needs to have some ability; otherwise, you can only be like you, thinking everyone is the same as you, only able to rely on others... but I am not as weak as you."

"As for what kind of ability I have, at the auction, I will use my own money."

"Oh, then I wish you success in your bidding!"

Gu Mianmian stood up angrily and left, having no patience to continue talking with Gu Wenyan. At this moment, Gu Mianmian's mind was entirely on how to get enough money from her eldest or second brother.

Only then could she participate in this auction.

It was just that before Gu Wenyan appeared, she didn't have to worry about any consequences doing this, but now it was different.

If she really could only rely on her eldest and second brothers to give it to her, while Gu Wenyan had her own ability, wouldn't she... be crushed by Gu Wenyan again?

Gu Mianmian began to panic. She didn't rush to find her eldest and second brothers immediately; when night fell, she snuck into Wang Ma's room.

"What do you think I should do now? If Gu Wenyan can come up with this money herself, in the future..."

Gu Mianmian was full of worry: "I will have no status at all in this house! It will be impossible to ever surpass Gu Wenyan again!"

Wang Ma said calmly: "Don't worry, there will definitely be a way, but as for what to do right now, I also need to think about it carefully..."

"You must help me! Only then can I get what I want in this house. If I lose like this, or even get outdone by Gu Wenyan, the family assets won't leave much for me in the future..."

"Alright, why are you so panicked? It hasn't reached that day yet; we will have a way."

Wang Ma chuckled: "Besides, you don't have enough cash right now, but haven't the Gu family members given you enough of those things in the past?"

"You mean..."

"Anyway, they are all gifts they gave you. You can take them out to exchange for money, bid on this jewelry, and you can explain it as your own savings."

"Right!" Gu Mianmian nodded, "That's it, that's the method. Wang Ma, I should have let you come back sooner!"

Wang Ma's expression darkened: "You, what will you do without me in the future..."

Gu Mianmian snuck out of Wang Ma's room; the entire process was extremely covert, and no one discovered her.

The auction arrived quickly. All participants had to provide a certain deposit in advance to ensure that the final auction items would not fail to sell.

Otherwise, if someone won a bid but did not have enough funds to pay, it would lead to the auction item failing to sell, which would be a great loss for the auction organizers.

To buy a necklace worth tens or hundreds of millions, the deposit was an extremely huge number; without enough financial backing, one would not dare to do this.

After submitting the deposit, Gu Mianmian was very confident. She believed that this time she would definitely be the one to win the necklace, and she would definitely not let Gu Wenyan succeed!

She wanted to make Gu Wenyan regret everything she had done to her, including the words mocking her!

The young masters of the Gu Family were also going to attend the auction today. Gu Wenyan had originally intended to go with them, but...

Bo Si Han also changed his schedule at the last minute and had time to participate. Between her husband and her brothers, Gu Wenyan chose Bo Si Han without hesitation.
