Chapter 707: Hu Zi’s Whereabouts! (7)

Mi Nuo raised her head immediately once she heard this. She resolutely shook her head. “No, we’re on the brink of success. There’s no way I’m going to leave! Rumors like these die down in about two to three days, and n.o.body’s going to pay attention to me after that. But Mother, what do I do after this whole fiasco? How will I be able to go to work? How will I be able to face people?!”

She reached out to touch her face as she spoke. “Mother, how about this? I’ll go for plastic surgery, and I can start all over again after that.”

The moment she said this, Li Yufeng shook her head. “No way. The failure rate for plastic surgery is very high, Nuonuo. Just stay here for a few days, and once our plan succeeds, you won’t even need to have plastic surgery anymore. There won’t be anyone bothering you from then on.”

Mi Nuo was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Li Yufeng bit her lips and replied, “When you become Mrs. Si, do you think that Mr. Si will allow for such rumors to continue spreading?”

Mi Nuo’s eyes brightened at the mention of this, and she finally fell silent.

After comforting Mi Nuo, Li Yufeng made several dishes for Mi Nuo and put them in the fridge. With that, she left the villa and drove back to the Gu residence.

The moment she stepped through the door, she found Gu Deshou sitting on the sofa in the living room, staring coldly at her.

Li Yufeng curled her lips. “Why are you looking at me like that? Gu Deshou, aren’t you supposed to be overseas? Is it because you were unable to find your mistress that you decided to come back to spend time with us?”

As she said this, she took off her coat and placed it on the rack by the side. Taking a few steps forward, she was about to quench her thirst by drinking a cup of tea when a hand came flying toward her.

Stunned, the teacup in Li Yufeng’s hand was swept to the floor.

Li Yufeng furrowed her brows and straightened herself in an instant. “Gu Deshou, what are you doing?!”

Before she could say anything more, Gu Deshou swung his arm toward her once more.

“Slap!” A tight slap landed on Li Yufeng’s face!

Li Yufeng held her face in her hands in disbelief. Staring at Gu Deshou with her eyes wide open, she screamed, “Have you gone mad? What are you doing?!”

Even though Gu Deshou was never a good person to begin with, he had never acted violently toward his own wife. That was his bottom line!

So, this was the first time that Li Yufeng got slapped.

Gu Deshou wanted so much to throw his phone at Li Yufeng’s face. “Li Yufeng, you’ve brought shame upon the whole Gu family! How is Mr. Si going to view our family from now on?!”

Li Yufeng took his phone from him. Lowering her head, she was stunned silent.

Raising her head once more, she saw Gu Xingshan and Gu Xinghao staring at her in silence. It was obvious that they were displeased with what she had done.

Li Yufeng swallowed, then swallowed once more. She wanted to say something to explain herself, but Gu Xingshan spoke first. “Mother, it’s true that we sponsored Mi Nuo all the way, but how can you help her like this? Mother, do you really like women? Is that why you slapped me in order to protect her last time?”

With that, Gu Xingshan took a step back in disgust.

Li Yufeng was shocked speechless.

While fire and brimstone were raining down on the Gu residence, the Si residence was extremely quiet.

It was late at night and everyone was sleeping soundly.

But Zhuang Nainai, lying on her bed, suddenly bolted up. Running to her bag by her side, she started rummaging.

Si Zhengting sat up, confused. “Nainai, what are you doing?”

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes were s.h.i.+ning in the dark. “Si Zhengting, I’ve finally recalled who Hu Zi is! I know who his good friend is!”
