Stepped Over Her Vicious Stepsister To Become The True Bigshot!

74 Bigshot Is Perfunctory?

Gu Rou had obviously spent a lot of effort dressing up today. Her makeup was light and elegant, and the light blue waistline dress accentuated her beauty.

Today was the first time she had been invited to a meal by Zhang Yue’s mother. Furthermore, she was having a meal with Zhang Yue’s mother and a few of her friends. She was obviously asking these ladies to help see if she was suitable to be her daughter-in-law.

Gu Rou couldn’t help but feel nervous, especially when she saw the ladies looking over. She was a little worried about whether she was dressed appropriately.

However, after seeing the admiration in their eyes, she was slightly relieved.

The madams warmly invited Gu Rou to take a seat. Only Mrs. Zhou’s gaze was on the bag Gu Rou was carrying.

Why did this bag look so much like the one she gave Gu Man?

Gu Rou happened to receive a call that day and did not see Mrs. Zhou. Now, she just felt that Mrs. Zhou was colder than other ladies.

Madam Zhang looked at Gu Man and was quite satisfied. Although she privately felt that she should find a girl from a prestigious family who would be helpful to the Zhang family, other than her family background, Gu Rou was good-looking and had a good personality. The main reason was that her son, Zhang Yue, also liked her, so she tacitly agreed.

The atmosphere during the meal was good. Gu Rou’s gentle personality won the admiration of the madams. Only Mrs. Zhou rarely interrupted.

Mrs. Zhou had been conflicted. Should she ask if this bag was the one she had given Gu Man?

Moreover, Gu Man had clearly said that the bag had yet to be opened. Why was Gu Rou carrying it now?

Could it be that Gu Man was brushing her off just now?

A lady joked, “Mrs. Zhou, you were so excited when you didn’t see Miss Gu Rou just now, but now you’re not saying anything. Are you jealous that she’s prettier than you?”

Everyone laughed.

Mrs. Zhou smiled and asked Gu Rou, “Gu Man doesn’t look like you.”

“That’s right. Gu Man is my sister. Does Madam know my sister?”

When Gu Rou heard Gu Man being mentioned, she was unhappy, but her smile was still sweet.

A quick-witted lady said on behalf of Mrs. Zhou, “How can she not know her? Gu Man saved her daughter yesterday. Yesterday, she even went to your house to thank Gu Man.”

When Gu Rou heard this, her heart tightened. She subtly moved her bag behind her.

So this was Mrs. Zhou, the Mrs. Zhou who gave the MK bag to Gu Man.

At this moment, the MK bag beside her was like a hot potato.

For this dinner, she had specially carried this high-end bag out because she wanted Madam Zhang to think highly of her. She did not expect to meet Madam Zhou.

But if Mrs. Zhou asked, she could just say that Gu Man gave it to her.

At the thought of this, Gu Rou finally relaxed.

However, she could not help but hate Gu Man. She spat at Gu Man in her heart. She was like a jinx that always embarrassed her.

Mrs. Zhou looked at Gu Rou and suddenly asked, “Miss Gu, your bag is so exquisite. Where did you buy it?”

Although Gu Rou was mentally prepared, her heart still skipped a beat. As expected, Mrs. Zhou would not let go of this problem.

Gu Rou immediately put on a sisterly look. She smiled and said, “It’s from my sister. We share many of our things.”

“Really? That’s not a coincidence. Gu Man said that she hasn’t seen her gift yet.”

Mrs. Zhou looked straight at Gu Rou, as if she wanted to look through her skin and see into her soul. Gu Rou felt uneasy, she felt as if she could tell something.

“Mrs. Zhou, could Gu Man have remembered wrongly? She always throws her gifts around.” Gu Rou almost couldn’t maintain the fake smile on her face.

Mrs. Zhang sensed a trace of embarrassment and said with a smile, “Mrs. Zhou, isn’t it just a bag? Your more expensive bags are all casually thrown on the ground. Do you still care about this bag?”

Mrs. Zhou did not give Madam Zhang any face and said with a faint smile, “It’s not a coincidence. I’m especially concerned about this bag.”

A ruthless glint flashed across Gu Rou’s eyes. She thought to herself, This Madam Zhou is indeed the same as Gu Man. She’s very difficult to deal with.

“If Madam Zhou really minds that Gu Man gave me this bag, I’ll return it to her when I get back. I hope you don’t mind. We were insensible,” Gu Rou said apologetically.

Mrs. Zhou stopped looking at Gu Rou. As she picked up the food, she said slowly, “I’m not such a petty person. Besides, this bag belongs to Gu Man. It’s up to Gu Man how she wants to deal with it, but she said just now that she didn’t open it. Now that you’re carrying it on your back, it’s hard for me not to think too much.”
