Ji Sisi smiled.
“Miss Gu, you misunderstand me. I left Huo Corporation for reasons unrelated to what you’re implying.”
“I haven’t misunderstood,” Gu Qingcheng replied indifferently to Ji Sisi. “To put it nicely, you resigned from Huo Corporation, but to be blunt, you were dismissed by Huo Sicheng.”
Ji Sisi’s expression changed again.
“Miss Gu, must you always speak so harshly?”
“Miss Ji, the truth is often harsh,” Gu Qingcheng replied as she walked to her car and opened the door. Turning to Ji Sisi, she said, “No matter how much you try to mimic me, you will always be an imitation.”
Ji Sisi’s face turned pale, and anger flashed in her eyes. “Miss Gu, that’s too much! How can you say I’m imitating you? How am I like you?”
Gu Qingcheng, with a half-smile, responded, “Whether you are like me or not, you know it in your heart.”
Ji Sisi’s eyes betrayed a hint of guilt. She raised her chin and stared at Gu

“Ji Sisi, I’m not a three-year-old child. I won’t believe everything you say,” Gu Qingcheng said as she closed the car door and approached Ji Sisi. “You do indeed mimic me well, but your hair should be a bit longer, and I prefer to use bright red lipstick as blush. The eyeliner should be more upward to make the eyes look bigger. And most importantly, the moon-white lily dress should have lily petal edging and be made of silk with hand embroidery to look both luxurious and elegant. A regular chiffon dress just doesn’t have the same effect.”
Ji Sisi’s face turned various colors as she listened to Gu Qingcheng.
“Look at your dress, made of ordinary chiffon with machine-embroidered lilies and lacking lily petal edging. It looks similar to mine but lacks the details,” Gu Qingcheng commented, looking at Ji Sisi’s dress. “My dresses are custom-made by Huo Sicheng. I have dozens in my closet that I can’t wear all. Maybe I should give you a few.”
Ji Sisi’s expression became extremely embarrassed.
“What nonsense are you talking? Who is dressing like you?” she retorted, stepping back to distance herself from Gu Qingcheng. “Miss Gu, you’ve crossed the line! Who’s imitating you? Do you think you’re so special? Don’t be so narcissistic!”
Gu Qingcheng replied calmly and elegantly, “Ji Sisi, do you think the reputation of Principal Gu, Miss Gu, and classical dancer came easily? I’ve seen more people and experienced more than you’ve eaten meals. I’ve seen many women like you trying to imitate others. You’re not unique; you’re just one of many I’ve encountered. I can see through your intentions at a glance. I’m already being generous by not mocking, scolding, or hitting you!”
“Do you think I don’t know why you came to the Taohe Cup? You’re not here to see me, but to see Huo Sicheng! You’ve been in Huo Corporation for many years and know Huo Sicheng inside out, including his car’s license plate. It’s easy for someone with a bit of brains to track where his car goes.”
Ji Sisi’s pale face flushed with shame and anger, clearly hit by Gu Qingcheng’s words. Her strong front collapsed under Gu Qingcheng’s scrutiny, leaving her feeling guilty and at a loss.
“If you want to find Huo Sicheng, wait for him at Huo Corporation’s entrance. Don’t come to me,” Gu Qingcheng said, turning to her car. Opening the door, she glanced meaningfully at Ji Sisi, “Don’t set your sights on Huo Sicheng. He’s my man and a married man. I never show mercy when dealing with mistresses. Don’t force me to confront you.”
Ji Sisi shivered under Gu Qingcheng’s cold and sharp gaze, feeling as if she was being dissected.
She had been intimidated by Gu Qingcheng before. Gu Qingcheng could be terrifying when angered.
Gu Qingcheng gave Ji Sisi one last cold look before getting into her car and driving away.
Ji Sisi stood still, watching Gu Qingcheng’s car disappear. The oppressive aura from Gu Qingcheng vanished, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
“You’re really bold,” Qi Shaoze’s cold voice rang out. “Imitating Gu Qingcheng is one thing, but doing it in front of her? Her eyes can see right through your intentions.”
Ji Sisi turned to see Qi Shaoze approaching her.
She felt a sinking feeling. Outsiders might think Gu Qingcheng and Qi Shaoze were a couple based on their online presence, but she knew he was just a friend of Gu Qingcheng.
Qi Shaoze’s words clearly indicated he had overheard her conversation with Gu Qingcheng. As Gu Qingcheng’s friend, he was likely here to mock her as well.
“Mr. Qi, please show some decency as a man,” she retorted, standing her ground against Qi Shaoze. “What happens between Miss Gu and me is our business, not yours.”
Qi Shaoze’s peach blossom eyes sparkled with an enigmatic smile.
“Ji Sisi, are you so desperate to get married?”
Ji Sisi frowned at Qi Shaoze, “What do you mean?”
“Huo Sicheng is a disabled, married man, and you’re trying to charm him in front of his wife, Gu Qingcheng. Isn’t that just to disgust her?” Qi Shaoze spoke nonchalantly. “You want to disgust her into divorcing him so you can marry him. Isn’t that your plan? If I can see through your intentions, don’t you think
Gu Qingcheng can?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJi Sisi’s face turned extremely unpleasant.
“You’re actually capable, as you and Huo Sicheng once trended online, nearly causing them to divorce,” Qi Shaoze said mysteriously. “If you like Huo Sicheng, go after him. With your ability and charm, you could cause them to divorce again.”
Ji Sisi was surprised, “Huo and Miss Gu nearly divorced?”
“Yes,” Qi Shaoze nodded. “Their marriage is unstable, so it’s easy to break them up.”
Ji Sisi’s brows furrowed, and she stared at Qi Shaoze. “You’re a friend of Miss
Gu. How can you say such things to me!”
“Because I am Gu Qingcheng’s friend, I don’t want to see a healthy woman like her married to a disabled man like Huo Sicheng,” Qi Shaoze said earnestly. “Your willingness to marry Huo Sicheng, a disabled man, is your choice. But I don’t want to see Gu Qingcheng ruin her future.”
“Huo Sicheng is only wheelchair-bound, not bedridden and immobile,” Ji Sisi responded, displeased by Qi Shaoze’s words. “I’ve seen Huo Sicheng’s capabilities, far surpassing those of healthy men.”
“That’s because you like him and think he’s impressive,” Qi Shaoze said, smiling as he saw Ji Sisi defending Huo Sicheng. “Let me tell you a secret: you may think Gu Qingcheng and Huo Sicheng are loving, but in reality, Gu Qingcheng doesn’t like Huo Sicheng. She was forced to marry him.”
Ji Sisi was shocked, “Forced?”
“Yes, forced,” Qi Shaoze revealed. “You must have seen the trending news about Gu Mei and Qin Jun’s affair. In reality, Gu Qingcheng knew about Qin Jun’s affair with Gu Mei long ago. In a fit of anger, she deliberately married Huo
Sicheng to spite Qin Jun, using Huo Sicheng to get back at Qin Jun. After all, Huo Sicheng is Qin Jun’s cousin. She was forced to use Huo Sicheng. You thought she married him because she liked him?”
“This…” Ji Sisi was taken aback and then upset, “Huo Sicheng is such a good man, how could Gu Qingcheng use him like that.”
Seeing Ji Sisi’s reaction, Qi Shaoze said meaningfully, “Don’t you want to save
Huo Sicheng from being used by Gu Qingcheng?”
