"Zhizhi, why can't I get through to your phone?"
She pretended to be warm and friendly.
However, as soon as she met Gu Zhi's fair face, which was far more beautiful than her own, she couldn't help but feel jealous.
She felt that Gu Zhi only had her face to show off!
Gu Zhi was holding a diamond ring she had already looked at.
Suddenly, a girl hurried over to her, clearly pretending to be very warm and friendly.
She had only set her mobile phone to block unknown numbers yesterday afternoon.
Anyone who could keep calling her after that, without needing to think, was obviously from the Shen family.
The girl in front of her was about her age...
Gu Zhi didn't even need to ask to know that this girl was Shen Yuyao.
Jiang Nian didn't react as quickly as Gu Zhi, but seeing that she didn't recognize the person who had arrived, she asked Gu Zhi, "Zhi Bao, who is she? Do you know her?"
Gu Zhi hadn't answered yet.
Shen Yuyao had already completely ignored Jiang Nian and immediately smiled at Gu Zhi:
"That's true, you were just found by Grandpa Gu, so you probably don't know me."
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Shen Yuyao. Your father, Shen Lifeng, is my stepfather, so naturally, we are sisters. It's just that I am two days older than you, so you'll have to call me older sister."
As soon as Jiang Nian heard this, she immediately exploded:
"So you're Shen Yuyao!"
"What sisters! Sister your head!"
"Don't you know how to go pee and look at yourself? You are so 'tea' right now!"
"Every word you say is so 'tea'!"
Shen Yuyao had never been scolded like this before.
Especially in front of so many people.
The people in this store all knew her and knew she was the young lady of the Shen family.
If it weren't for that status, the people in this store would have definitely laughed out loud already.
Shen Yuyao was left unable to step down.
"I didn't..." Shen Yuyao's eyes immediately turned red, looking pitiful and as if she had been bullied.
This was her usual tactic.
But Jiang Nian didn't buy it at all:
"Didn't you?"
"If not, why are you rushing over now to claim to be a sister?!"
"What were you doing before!"
"Grandpa Gu called Shen Lifeng the moment he found my bestie!"
"How many days has it been!"
"It's only because my bestie registered her marriage with Lu Yanshen that you all rushed to suck up to her!"
The people in the jewelry store were extremely shocked.
Lu Yanshen?
Is that the person in power of the top-tier wealthy family, Lu Yanshen?
Has the person in power of a top-tier wealthy family already registered his marriage?
It looks like it.
Then isn't Miss Gu the Madam Lu?!!!
Shen Yuyao cursed Jiang Nian in her heart for being a busybody and hard to fool.
She also made her even more unable to step down.
On the surface, she hurriedly squeezed out tears, looking even more pitiful and as if she had been endlessly bullied.
She cried to Gu Zhi:
"Little Sister Zhizhi, believe me, I am really not being 'tea'."
"Before, it was because Dad wouldn't acknowledge you, so even if I knew you were brought back, it wasn't appropriate for me to go find you."
"You also know that I am just an adopted daughter, not Dad's biological daughter, so my situation is awkward, and I certainly couldn't go against Dad's wishes."
"Today, I just happened to run into you. Seeing you sitting in a wheelchair, looking so pitiful, I felt I really couldn't not acknowledge you. After all, I am the older sister, so I came in to find you."
"It's not at all like what this person said."
She clearly thought Gu Zhi was easier to fool than Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian saw it and rolled her eyes hard.
If she was bronze, her bestie was a king. Her bestie was easy to fool?
Gu Zhi's expression didn't change at all.
She slowly put down the diamond ring in her hand.
Her calm words were incredibly sharp:
"How did you know I was Gu Zhi?"
Although the ancestral recognition banquet was held grandly, it was not public.
Shen Yuyao was instantly stuck.
Of course, it was because she had bribed someone to take candid photos of Gu Zhi and send them to her!
The day after Gu Zhi was found, she already knew what Gu Zhi looked like.
But she certainly couldn't answer that way.
She endured her flustered state and started lying:
"At the ancestral recognition banquet, someone sent a photograph to Dad, and I happened to see it. That's how I knew what you looked like."
Gu Zhi: "Who sent it?"
Shen Yuyao stammered: "I didn't ask. It seemed to be a guest who attended the ancestral recognition banquet."
Afraid that Gu Zhi would keep digging, Shen Yuyao hurriedly changed the subject and returned to her original question:
"Zhizhi, why can't I get through to your phone?"
Gu Zhi had an idea.
There was a mole in the Gu family.
Jiang Nian said impatiently:
"Does that even need to be asked? Even a fool knows she must have set her mobile phone to block all unknown numbers!"
Shen Yuyao cried to Gu Zhi again:
"Zhizhi, is this your friend? Why is she so aggressive? I haven't offended her."
Little did she know, Gu Zhi said lightly:
"You didn't call me a few times yesterday, did you? You were worried sick, weren't you? You were afraid that I would register my marriage with Lu Yanshen, right?"
It was even more infuriating.
Shen Yuyao was grinding her teeth.
Shouldn't someone who grew up in the countryside be very stupid!
But she still wanted to marry Lu Yanshen.
Even if Gu Zhi had already registered her marriage with Lu Yanshen, so what? Couldn't they divorce? Couldn't she be the one to marry Lu Yanshen instead?
Then she definitely couldn't burn bridges with Gu Zhi for the time being.
Shen Yuyao immediately pretended to be indifferent and magnanimous:
"Zhizhi, I know you are angry that Dad didn't want to acknowledge you at first, which is why you are angry at me too. I don't blame you."
Afraid that Gu Zhi would say something else infuriating that would make her lose control and burn bridges, she hurriedly said:
"Then I won't disturb your shopping. I'll be going now!"
After saying that, she left in a hurry.
But as she left, she did glance at the ring Gu Zhi had just put down.
It was clearly a wedding ring, because there was a men's ring placed next to it.
But wasn't the diamond on the women's ring too small?
Shen Yuyao couldn't help but gloat in her heart.
It must be that Lu Yanshen also looked down on Gu Zhi and refused to buy her a wedding ring, so Gu Zhi had to pay for it herself, which is why she could only buy such a small one!
Great!
She had to go back quickly and tell her parents!
Seeing Shen Yuyao leave so flustered, Jiang Nian crossed her arms and laughed:
"Is she afraid you'll roast her again? You truly live up to your reputation as a fighter; one sentence of yours is worth ten of mine."
And they all hit the nail on the head.
Gu Zhi just smiled and didn't speak.
They were in someone else's store, so it wasn't appropriate to say too much.
And the people in the jewelry store already knew that Gu Zhi was Madam Lu, so naturally, they were even more polite and respectful to her.
Those people hadn't stood up straight since.
Even the person in charge of the main store heard that Madam Lu was here and hurried over to serve her.
It showed just how overwhelming Lu Yanshen's power was.
Among the women's rings sent over by the main store, Gu Zhi chose the most expensive one with the largest diamond.
It cost eighty million.
Gu Zhi didn't even blink as she swiped her card.
This made Jiang Nian laugh and call her sister generous.
The people in charge of the main store and this counter were eager to treat Gu Zhi like royalty.
They thought, as expected of Madam Lu, a single purchase was eighty million.
The women's ring fit Gu Zhi perfectly, so no adjustments were needed.
But Gu Zhi didn't know Lu Yanshen's finger size, and she didn't know if the men's ring that was a pair with this women's ring would fit Lu Yanshen perfectly.
If it didn't fit, they would definitely have to ask the store to adjust the size of the men's ring.
Gu Zhi sent a WeChat message to Lu Yanshen.
She asked him what his finger size was.
