Gu Qingming waited for a while, but that person still didn’t come out. Her patience was gone.

She instructed the bodyguards, “Since she’s unwilling to come out, go and invite her out. Lan Ruomei, if you dare to do it, you have to bear the consequences. Can you solve the problem by hiding in the house like a coward?”

“Yes, my lady!”

One of the bodyguards stayed behind to protect Gu Qingming while the other went to get Lan Ruomei.

“You… you let go of me! Bastard, you’re hurting me.”

The bodyguard who went to get her didn’t show any mercy. He grabbed one of Lan Ruomei’s arms and pulled her out. Then, he carried her to Lin Haotian’s side.

When she saw Lan Ruomei’s red dress, necklace, and earrings, Gu Qingming’s eyes burned with anger.

She made a fist and held it for a moment longer. Then her expression cleared.

She looked Lan Ruomei up and down as if she were an object.

Then, she sneered and said, “Lan Ruomei, it seems like you like everything that belongs to me. You like the clothes I’ve worn, you like the jewelry I’ve worn, and now you even like the men I’ve used. I think you don’t like Lin Haotian, but me, right?”

Lan Ruomei’s expression immediately twisted.

“Now, you’re still thinking of occupying my assets. Hehe, where did you get your confidence from? Do you think the Gu family’s things will end up with you two dogs?” Gu Qingming mocked.

No matter how scheming Lin Haotian and Lan Ruomei were, they never expected that Gu Qingming was the heir personally nurtured by Gu Jianguo. Therefore, the Gu Corporation could only belong to Gu Qingming in the future.

Even if Lin Haotian relied on Gu Qingming to enter the Gu Corporation in the future, it was impossible for Gu Qingming to hand over the large corporation to the incompetent Lin Haotian.

Gu Qingming dealt them a heavy blow. “Do you really think that you’re a phoenix just because you’ve climbed up the tree? Hmph, when I think highly of you, you could be the wild phoenix that flew out of a poor ditch. But when I despise you, you’re not even a sparrow. You’re just smelly rats in a ditch.”

Lan Ruomei and Lin Haotian’s expressions were especially ugly as they glared at Gu Qingming.

Lin Haotian clenched his fists, the veins on the back of his hands bulging. He gritted his teeth and said, “Gu Qingming, how dare you look at me like that?”

“What else?” Gu Qingming retorted calmly and sharply.

Lan Ruomei suddenly flew into a rage. “Gu Qingming, what are you so proud of? What right do you have to look down on us? Don’t you just have a good background and a good father? If you don’t have a good background and your father doesn’t have money, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to live better than us!”

Anger almost spewed out of her eyes. The light of jealousy shot toward Gu Qingming like an arrow.

“So what if you’re rich and powerful? You’re still that stupid. You’ve been coddled by us. You’ve been fooled by us for five years. Haha…”

Lan Ruomei looked like a broken pot, and her tone was crazy and resentful.

Why were the heavens so unfair? Why was it that some people were born with everything while others had to fight for it themselves? Even food and clothing were a problem.

“Haha… Five years, Gu Qingming. You don’t know how many times I’ve slept with Haotian in these five years, whether it was during your two years of dating or three years of marriage. When you gave yourself to Haotian as a gift on his birthday, you didn’t know that Haotian was with me at that time.”

Lan Ruomei told him everything about Lin Haotian, as if this would help her vent her anger.

She was envious and jealous of Gu Qingming. She wanted to obtain everything Gu Qingming had, but at the same time, she didn’t want Gu Qingming to have an easy time.

“Hehe, Gu Qingming, your man has been with me for five years. Are you very jealous and angry now?

Haha, Gu Qingming, so what if you’re rich, powerful, and good-looking? Your husband only has me, Lan Ruomei, in his heart, while you’re just a stepping stone for us to use and live a good life!”

Since she had already fallen out with Gu Qingming, there was no need to pretend anymore.

She wanted to vent all her dissatisfaction and anger.

“Didn’t you hear it this morning? Haotian despises you. Haha, how does it feel to be despised by the man you like?” Lan Ruomei said proudly.

She felt a thrill of revenge!

If the other party felt bad, she would be happy!

Her happiness was built on Gu Qingming’s pain. Some people have such twisted hearts.

They had clearly chosen Gu Qingming as their target and deliberately schemed to get close to her. They did not even hesitate to use themselves as bait. In the end, they seemed to have been forced into a corner and were filled with indignation and anger.

Gu Qingming had already seen the excitement of that scene. Now, there was already a buffer time. Although she was furious, she became calmer.

This was what her father had told her when he groomed her. The bigger the situation, the more she needed to be calm and composed.

It was because she was calm and composed enough that she allowed himself to think and come up with the appropriate countermeasures to solve the current problem.

His father had gone to a lot of trouble to cultivate her calm personality.

Gu Qingming looked at Lan Ruomei indifferently, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain.

“So, Lan Ruomei, are you jealous of my family background and my looks?” Gu Qingming asked coldly. “So, you want to take everything from me and stomp on me so that you can vent your anger, right?”

She exposed Lan Ruomei’s disgusting and twisted thoughts. Then, she said, “You resorted to honey trapping and didn’t hesitate to use your boyfriend to fish. But when you saw your boyfriend with me, you got angry and jealous. However, in order to live a good life as a rich wife, you could only endure it. But secretly, you made me a cuckold to vent your unwillingness.”

As she spoke, she paused for a moment and stared sharply at Lan Ruomei. She said fiercely, “Lan Ruomei, someone like you, who has a heart higher than the sky and a life thinner than paper, will never be able to live like a rich young lady who is surrounded by my bodyguards and servants.

No matter how envious, jealous, or twisted you are, you can’t change the fact that I’m the rich young lady. Hehe…”

“You…” The anger in Lan Ruomei’s heart immediately rolled out. “You’re despicable! Gu Qingming, just you wait. I’ll definitely live a better life than you in the future. At that time, I’ll definitely trample you under my feet and return the insult you gave me a thousandfold!”

Gu Qingming was not afraid at all. She shrugged her shoulders and said coldly, “Then I’ll wait!”

Then, she looked around the house and said, “Since you don’t care about my kindness, I’ll take back everything I gave you!”

Lan Ruomei and Lin Haotian were shocked. Their pupils constricted as they stared at Gu Qingming with wide eyes, like a sharp sword slashing at her.
