Behind them, Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu slowly raised their heads, watching the two walking away side by side, their eyes full of jealous and resentful expressions.
Gu Junzhu.
The most esteemed gentleman of Beijing’s high society, a man for whom countless young women from prestigious families eagerly vied.
He who once was just a step away from them, was forcibly pushed toward Ye Xingbei by them.
Ever since they had learned this fact, they had been living in constant torment, racked by regret.
Especially now, seeing Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei publicly being so affectionate, whispering sweet nothings into each other’s ears, seeming extremely close, their jealousy intensified.
Jiang Siyou ground her teeth in resentment, looking painfully at the silhouette of Ye Xingbei being held in Gu Junzhu’s arms.
How had Ye Xingbei, that once destitute and useless maiden whom she had already trampled underfoot, become so exalted and glorious now?
A legend in the music industry.
The cash cow of Star Palace.
The adoptive sister of Ye Xinglan, the helmsman of Star Palace.
Gu Junzhu’s wife, the Young Madam of the Gu Family.
Any one of these titles would have satisfied her, but she had none.
Her pain was indescribable, she wished she could die at any moment to escape this unbearable torture.
Standing by her side, Jiang Lingyu was also watching Ye Xingbei’s retreating figure, her eyes filled with the same jealousy and resentment.
It wasn’t until Ye Xingbei’s figure had disappeared from sight that she suddenly turned to Jiang Siyou and asked, “Sister, do you want to turn things around?”
“Turn things around?”, Jiang Siyou laughed bitterly, “Xiao Yu, I signed a ten-year contract with Star Palace! Ye Xingbei is now the head of Star Palace! She is also Gu Junzhu’s wife, the Young Madam of the Gu Family! My future and destiny are all in her hands, and she hates me to death, do you think I have any chance to turn things around in this life?”
“Yes!”, said Jiang Lingyu, looking at Jiang Siyou, she took two steps closer to her, whispered in her ear: “Sis, when I went out with Brother Luan just now, I saw our second cousin brother!”
“Xie Jinfei?”, Jiang Siyou frowned slightly, “Since the Xie Family took our eldest cousin brother and second cousin brother away, our contact with them has basically ceased. Our grandfather resents them for changing their last name, everytime he sees them he never has a good face. Our family and Xie Family are now almost like enemies, what difference does it make if you see Xie Jinfei?”
“Sis, can’t you think out of the box a bit more?”, Jiang Lingyu leaned even closer to her ear, whispering: “Sis, I’m blood-related to our eldest and second cousin, so my meeting with them doesn’t mean anything, but it would be different for you! You aren’t blood-related to either of them. They are now prestigious gentlemen in Beijing, while their wealth is a bit less than Gu Junzhu’s, it’s not by much!”
Jiang Lingyu’s eyes gleamed with greedy light: “Sis, if you could marry either our eldest or second cousin, we could make a comeback! With their support, would we need to continue living under Ye Xingbei’s thumb?”
Jiang Siyou’s eyes brightened.
She was moved.
Before, she considered Xie Yunlin and Xie Jinfei as her cousin brothers, so she never thought of them in that way before.
But now, Jiang Lingyu’s reminder had opened a door to a whole new world for her..
