The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities
Chapter 389 - Chapter 389 The first one who dares to play tricks in front of

Chapter 389: The first one who dares to play tricks in front of me is you, 0389. Chapter 389: The first one who dares to play tricks in front of me is you, 0389. “Sister, what just happened was an accident, why do you always have to blame everything on me?”

Su Xinyan’s eyes reddened, looking as if she had just suffered the greatest grievance.

Su Ran hooked her lips into a smirk, “Your accident is to throw yourself into another man’s arms? Should I praise you for being straightforward or applaud your willingness to debase yourself!”

Su Ran’s words were so blunt that they were shameful, her tone severe but fragile inside, sharp enough to give the impression of stating facts.

Fu Qiyuan’s cold gaze landed on Su Xinyan, making her face turn a few shades paler.

“Who can control tripping and falling? Sister… have you always taken such pleasure in targeting people?”

Su Ran let out a cold laugh, the corners of her lips curving ever so slightly upwards, even her brows carried a hint of a smile.

But this smile was laced with venom.

“No! Just you! Not only do I enjoy targeting you, but I will also do so until you die unable to close your eyes in peace!”

At that moment, Fu Qiyuan also spoke indifferently to Su Xinyan:

“You’re the first to dare play tricks in front of me.”

His voice was chilling, making one shudder, and when he turned to Gu Heng, he showed nothing but contempt, his disdainful look conveying everything.

With him around, he was doomed never to have any hope for the rest of his life!

Gu Heng’s face grew darker and darker, nothing was more humiliating than the contempt from a man more powerful than oneself.

Especially since he was a man!

A man who had always held a position of authority!

Fu Qiyuan immediately took Su Ran by the arm and turned to leave, with Mo Shangjie and the others following closely behind.

The atmosphere around them grew strange.

“I initially thought it was a coincidence, but hearing it put like that, wasn’t she just throwing herself into that man’s embrace?”

“Did you notice, when she threw herself at that gentleman, he even took a step back, clearly reluctant, obviously not wanting to get involved with her.”

“Oh my God, how embarrassing, her boyfriend is right there, is this really okay to do?”

“I think she’s quite pleased with herself.”

“Isn’t she and her sister on bad terms? What’s she doing making a scene like this?”

“Exactly because their relationship is sour, she must want to get her hands on anyone related to Su Ran!”

“…”

The murmurs around were not loud, but because of the recent events, the hubbub had died down, making every sentence all the more audible.

Su Xinyan leaned against Gu Heng, her forehead beaded with sweat as she listened to the people’s comments, her face alternating between pale and flushed, her whole body trembling with anger.

Moreover, she felt both embarrassed and infuriated at being seen through!

Her heart also filled with extreme hatred!

What had happened?

Not only had she failed to make Su Ran lose face, but she had turned into the one who was embarrassed.

Yet, faced with everyone’s finger-pointing, Su Xinyan still broke down in tears.

Gu Heng, sensing her reaction, tightly wrapped his arms around her shoulders, and Su Xinyan looked up at him, her long eyelashes still wet with a string of crystal-clear tears.

Without saying a word, she buried her head in his firm chest, her shoulders shaking slightly.

It wasn’t long before a dampness spread through his chest, the sight of her vulnerability made Gu Heng’s heart ache unbearably.

Not knowing what to say, he simply picked her up gently and walked inside, shielding her from the increasingly unbearable noise outside.

–

This exchange was not as formal and serious as imagined, perhaps because that wasn’t A-country’s intention.

They declared that they had come to seek advice and learn from the elite of Hua Country, so for a while, the atmosphere felt more like attending a banquet.

Upon entering the Convention Center, Fu Qiyuan and his companions were taken away by the host of this event, the president of Yong City University.

At that moment, only Su Ran, Yun Feng, and Ye Zhichen were left.

There were no specific activities planned for the afternoon, just a dinner at seven in the evening, which also served as a welcome ceremony.

The organizers had arranged rooms for rest inside the hotel at the Convention Center, so everyone could choose to either go back to the hotel to rest or stroll around the venue.

It seemed that not many people from Country A had come this time, and along the way, Su Ran hadn’t seen many new faces; most were the familiar ones often seen in the circle.

As Yun Feng was currently the hottest male entertainer in the industry, naturally there were many people who wanted to discuss collaborations with him.

Therefore, it wasn’t long before the trio was surrounded.

As an agent, this was her job, but since Ye Zhichen was also there today, Su Ran handed all the matters over to her.

Ye Zhichen simply rolled her eyes in resignation and let her off.

Su Ran smiled and began to wander around the vast venue on her own.

She also wanted to take this opportunity to get some things straight.

–

In the resting room.

Gu Heng called for a doctor to check on Su Xinyan, watching her pale face with inevitable concern.

“How is it? Is it serious?”

The doctor examined her meticulously and earnestly; everyone present today was not someone he could afford to offend, so he had to be extra careful.

After the examination, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s not very serious, just a minor sprain. She should be fine after resting for a couple of days. If she still feels pain, she can apply an ice pack to reduce the pain and swelling.”

Hearing this, Gu Heng’s tense expression eased quite a bit.

“Mm, thank you, doctor.”

“You’re welcome.”

After speaking, the doctor packed up his things and left the resting room.

Gu Heng sat opposite Su Xinyan, holding her foot gently in his hands on his lap and massaging it, his voice low and gentle.

“Does it still hurt? If it hurts, we can go back first.”

Su Xinyan’s eyes were still faintly red as she looked at Gu Heng and shook her head.

“It doesn’t hurt much anymore, I’m fine.”

Zhao Yiyi saw Su Xinyan’s ankle turn blue and was furious.

“It’s all because of that bitch Su Ran. If it weren’t for her, Xinyan’s foot wouldn’t have gotten sprained.”

“Yiyi.”

Gu Heng frowned and chided her softly.

Zhao Yiyi saw her cousin’s somber face and reluctantly closed her mouth.

“Brother Heng, don’t be mad at Yiyi; she’s just concerned about me.”

Zhao Yiyi looked gratefully at Su Xinyan, her disdain for Su Ran growing deeper.

Gu Heng, of course, could not truly be angry with his own cousin; he just hoped she would not use foul language so freely as a girl.

“Don’t push yourself. It’s just an exchange meeting after all.”

Su Xinyan bit her lip, her face stubborn.

“No, Brother Heng, I must attend the exchange meeting. Last time, I was the reason Xiao’s investment was lost. This time, I can’t let you miss out on the opportunity of the exchange meeting.”

Gu Heng looked at her indulgently, saying helplessly:

“Silly girl, last time wasn’t your fault.”

“But I’ll blame myself. If I don’t do something for you, I’ll feel uneasy. Brother Heng, don’t stay here today for this rare opportunity; Yiyi will stay with me. You should go attend to your business!”

Gu Heng frowned, “But your foot…”
