Chapter 858: Pregnant (4)
"Miss Guh, the banquet has already started, why are you standing here? Could it be... you’re hungry?" An Yiqing smiled and narrowed her eyes, casting a seemingly casual glance at Huang Yiyi sitting on the ground, "Oh, what’s wrong here? Miss Huang, are you not feeling well? How about I help you to the guest room to rest for a bit?"
An Yiqing spoke with feigned enthusiasm, but her body remained motionless, still standing three meters away from Guh Siyi.
Guh Siyi was a woman with a bit of malevolence about her, an air of venomous energy flowed from her. An Yiqing couldn’t let her guard down.
"No, no need to trouble yourself." Huang Yiyi stuttered in response, her gaze complex as she looked at the smiling An Yiqing. Just a moment ago, at the brink of death, it was this woman she despised to her bones who saved her. Even though Huang Yiyi knew An Yiqing’s help wasn’t genuine, the fact that she owed An Yiqing her life was undeniable.
As for whether or not to return the favor, that was left to her own fate.
"Miss An, Yiyi is my sister, so there’s no need for you to bother. Although it’s Old Master Bai’s birthday today, Miss An has become the most dazzling person at the party, which is truly praiseworthy," Guh Siyi said, glancing briefly at Huang Yiyi before turning to An Yiqing with a cold voice.
"What are you talking about, Miss Guh? I was originally not going to give a gift because I thought it would be inappropriate to duplicate the ’Jade Spirit’ you brought. But after your kind persuasion, I made my humble offering. My being in the spotlight tonight is all thanks to your support," An Yiqing replied politely, nodding her head, her face all innocent smiles, "Also, don’t mind what Tingting and Xiao Xue said earlier. They’re still young and speak without thinking. I have matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first, Miss Guh, please make yourself at home."
