Editor: Henyee Translations

Mrs. Bai, eager to curry favor with Ruan Xueling, praised her excessively. “Madam Gu, you’ve done an excellent job raising your children. They all got into Hua University.”

She continued, “I heard that Miss Gu Yang’s perfume sold for 200 million yuan at auction. Such talent surpasses even that of established perfume families.”

Ruan Xueling smiled at Gu Yang, who was quietly standing beside her. “It’s just a hobby of hers. Your children are impressive too. I hear your son has contributed significantly to managing the company, and your daughter graduated from a prestigious overseas institution.”

Gu Yang listened attentively to the exchange and observed Bai Yueshuang’s changing emotions. She noticed an undercurrent of resentment directed at Ruan Xueling.

‘Did Mother do something to offend her?’

As Ruan Xueling and Mrs. Bai chatted amiably, they suggested that Gu Yang and Gu Jin mingle with other guests.

At that moment, Bai Yueshuang interjected with a smile. “Madam Gu, I heard that Miss Xiao grew up under your care. When did she start learning perfume mixing, and who was her mentor? It’s impressive that she can create such extraordinary perfumes.”

In her previous life, when she inhabited Gu Yang’s body, the Gu family had kept her away from perfume-related activities.

In this life, when Gu Jin returned to the Gu family, she followed specific instructions to fall down the stairs at a precise moment to avoid the fate of her previous life. Using her life force, she activated the UO and returned to her body.

However, it had only been two years since she left that body. Two years ago, Gu Yang had no knowledge of perfume making, but now, she had suddenly mastered it. Wouldn’t Ruan Xueling be suspicious?

Even though she had to maintain her cover as Wuyang and couldn’t reveal her true identity to Ruan Xueling, she didn’t want Gu Yang to enjoy such success.

Ruan Xueling frowned at the interruption but lifted her eyebrows when Gu Yang was mentioned. “Our Yangyang is exceptionally intelligent. She learned it all on her own.”

Bai Yueshuang was taken aback.

Ruan Xueling didn’t even suspect something so obvious?

Bai Yueshuang’s frustration grew. “But perfume making isn’t something that can be mastered overnight…”

Ruan Xueling responded, “Our Yangyang is just naturally gifted.”

Bai Yueshuang’s anger was nearly overwhelming.

Ruan Xueling was as clueless as ever! Didn’t she suspect anything about Gu Yang’s sudden expertise? No wonder she had been so easily manipulated in her previous life.

Mrs. Bai frowned and glanced at Bai Yueshuang before speaking to Ruan Xueling with a hint of exasperation. “Madam Gu, Family Head Gu, you have a loving relationship, and your children are well-behaved. I hope you can overlook any minor issues and bear with us.”

Her comment subtly implied that Bai Yueshuang, as an illegitimate daughter, was the one at fault.

Ruan Xueling, who didn’t have much regard for Bai Yueshuang, looked at her with a disapproving expression, as if Bai Yueshuang owed her a fortune.

Understanding the situation, Ruan Xueling addressed the group. “Yangyang, Jin, isn’t that your cousin Chuchu over there? You two should go and catch up with your friends. Don’t feel obliged to stay and chat with us.”

Gu Yang smiled and nodded. “Of course, Mom. Sister and I will leave you to your conversation with Aunt Bai.”

Mrs. Bai, clearly displeased, didn’t let Bai Yueshuang join them. Her discontent was evident, especially since Bai Yueshuang’s attempt to ingratiate herself with Madam Gu had backfired.

“Cousin!”

Gu Yang greeted Ruan Chu while holding Gu Jin’s arm.

Ruan Chu had arrived with Ji Linbai and was currently in the spotlight after winning the Best Actress Award. She radiated glamour and success.

Bai Yueshuang’s eyes widened in shock as she saw the glamorous Ruan Chu embrace Gu Yang. The sight caused her to drop the bag she was holding and a chill to run down her spine.

Ruan Chu… she was still alive!
