Chapter 12: Closer Than Biological Siblings

Chapter 12: Closer Than Biological Siblings

Gu Qingming's sharp questions were like lightning to the guilty Lin Haotian.

He didn't react for a moment. Then he stammered, "What … what do we do?"

Of course, he and Ruomei would be together in the future.

Lan Ruomei, who had been paying attention to the commotion in the house, frowned slightly from the moment Gu Qingming opened the door and said the first sentence. She felt that something was wrong.

Based on Gu Qingming's infatuation with Lin Haotian, her tone towards him should be full of excitement at this moment, but those words were clearly harsh. Her woman's intuition told her that something was wrong with Gu Qingming.

Could it be that Gu Qingming had discovered her affair with Lin Haotian? Was she furious now? This guess made her very uneasy and nervous.

She had to dispel Gu Qingming's doubts. After all, she had planned for so long to become rich. Now was not the time to fall short.

Thinking of this, Lan Ruomei rushed to the door with a smile on her face. She was obviously very happy to see Gu Qingming.

She said, "Qingming, you're finally here. You don't know, Haotian and I have been waiting for you all day. Now that it's dark, we all thought you weren't coming."

With that, she stepped out of the door and held Gu Qingming's arm like before, pretending to be very intimate.

No one would have thought that one moment, this woman was having sex with her best friend's boyfriend. The next, she was talking to her best friend as if nothing had happened. She didn't feel guilty at all.

The two bodyguards who came with Gu Qingming looked at Lan Ruomei with disdain.

This woman was too thick-skinned. How shameless!

When Lan Ruomei was talking to Gu Qingming, she also noticed the two tall bodyguards behind her. Envy flashed in her eyes.

She'll let Gu Qingming be smug first. Sooner or later, she would be kneeling to beg her.

Thinking about how Gu Qingming would be abandoned by Lin Haotian in the future, and how she and Lin Haotian would take over the Gu Corporation and become the top people in Sea City, she couldn't help but feel excited.

Naturally, she didn't notice the way the two bodyguards looked at her. It was filled with contempt.

The moment Lan Ruomei appeared in front of her, Gu Qingming's expression was filled with anger.

In her previous life, she really treated Lan Ruomei as a good friend. Not only did she know that Lan Ruomei came from a poor family, but her family also favored boys over girls. Even if she got into a key high school, her family was unwilling to provide for her education. They thought that no matter how many books a girl read, she would still be going to her in-laws.

Lan Ruomei was stubborn and had a desire for knowledge to change her fate. At a young age, she worked part-time jobs everywhere and saved up a sum of money for her tuition fee. She had suffered all kinds of pain and suffering.

To Gu Qingming, who had lived a luxurious life since she was young and had no worries about money, she really could not imagine what kind of life Lan Ruomei was living. Therefore, when she became good friends with Lan Ruomei, she admired her strength and wanted to help Lan Ruomei as much as possible.

She would give her sums of money, that were as high as a hundred thousand dollars.

However, she refused, saying that she would have to work hard to make a better life for her future self. Only by suffering could one be above others!

However, Gu Qingming did not know that after Lan Ruomei rejected the money, her heart was bleeding.

A hundred thousand dollars! No matter how much money her family sent her, it was only about two thousand a month. A hundred thousand dollars was enough for her to spend for a long time.

However, for the sake of the long-term plan, for the sake of becoming a rich wife and living a life of luxury, she could only endure the pain and refuse.

Most people would find it hard to resist the temptation of a hundred thousand dollars.

But Lan Ruomei refused without hesitation.

Gu Qingming admired Lan Ruomei's strength and unyielding arrogance. This made her want to help Lan Ruomei even more.

If Lan Ruomei refused the money she offered, she would help her in another way. Like, giving her presents.

Lan Ruomei accepted half of those items. With the first acceptance, there was a second, a third, and then it was as it should be. She would buy a set of branded bags and jewelry for Lan Ruomei.

Over the past three years, Lan Ruomei had finally accepted her things, which were worth no less than three million dollars.

Gu Qingming was rich. Three million was nothing to her. She didn't care at all.

However, to the poor Lan Ruomei, three million was an astronomical figure.

Although Lan Ruomei was very arrogant, she did not feel any burden at all other than the first time.

In her previous life, Gu Qingming was silly. She was coaxed by them and did not notice anything wrong.

The current Gu Qingming had their family backgrounds thoroughly investigated. She looked at Lan Ruomei, who smiled at her as if nothing had happened and saw the change in her expressions of envy, jealousy, and even resentment clearly.

Gu Qingming found it odd that Lan Ruomei would feel resentment. She had never owed her anything, much less done anything to let her down. Who was she to resent her?

Gu Qingming relaxed her clenched fists and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She was arrogant and imposing.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and stared at Lan Ruomei with a faint smile. She asked calmly and sharply, "Lan Ruomei, you two have been waiting together for me in this room all day?"

She deliberately emphasized the word "together".

Lan Ruomei's pupils constricted, and her uneasiness grew.

She calmed herself down and forced a smile. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Haotian said loudly,

"Gu Qingming, what do you mean by that? Why are your words so unpleasant? Ruomei and I have been childhood friends, but we're closer than biological siblings. What's wrong with siblings staying in the same room?"

The louder he spoke, the more guilty he seemed.

"Oh, closer than biological siblings!" Gu Qingming seemed to understand and nodded.

But then she took out her phone and waved it in front of them. "Lin Haotian, Lan Ruomei, I recorded a very interesting scene just now. Do you want to listen to it?"
