"You go ahead. I'm about to head back."
"Since you're already here, why not join the auction? Leave the medicine with me for now, so no one swaps it out again."
"I don't want to. I don't want to see the Qiao family."
"Now's the perfect time to show them up. Why not?" Tang Yu didn't understand.
"I don't want any more ties with them. You know what? The moment I show up, the Qiao family will think I'm here to beg for their forgiveness. They'll make me apologize, then reluctantly agree to let me back into the family." Shen Yunyun said, a hint of mockery on her face.
Tang Yu thought about that scene and got annoyed. "Then we should definitely go and rub it in their faces."
Shen Yunyun really had no interest in showing them up, but seeing Tang Yu so eager to stand up for her, she agreed anyway.
Wei Lingling waited in the room for Tang Yu, but after half an hour, he still hadn't returned. Seeing that the auction was about to start, she couldn't help but call him.
"Honey, where did you go? When are you coming back? The auction's about to begin."
Tang Yu froze for a moment, then looked at Shen Yunyun.
Oh no, he had completely forgotten about Wei Lingling.
"Honey, stay put. I'll be right back." He hung up quickly and said to Shen Yunyun, "Auntie, I forgot my girlfriend."
Shen Yunyun: "..."
How did this guy even do business?
Was his brain really working properly?
"I'm going to pick her up now. Wait here a bit, we'll be down soon."
"Go on, go on." Shen Yunyun was utterly speechless.
If she had a boyfriend like that, she'd be furious to death.
Tang Yu went upstairs to get her, while Shen Yunyun waited in the lobby.
The auction was in the exhibition hall on the 36th floor, and she was currently waiting in the lobby on that same floor.
"Mom, Dad, isn't that sister?" Qiao Shiyue said, letting go of Guo Yuhua's arm and rushing toward Shen Yunyun.
Shen Yunyun, having taken the elixir, had sharp ears and eyes. She heard their family chatting and laughing as they stepped out of the elevator.
She set down her coffee and raised a magazine to cover her face, hoping to avoid a confrontation with the Qiao family here. But fate had other plans.
She was still recognized.
She put down the magazine, ready to snap at Qiao Shiyue, but saw Qiao Shiyue's smile freeze as she awkwardly said, "Sorry, little sister, I mistook you for someone else."
Shen Yunyun remembered she had taken the Beauty Pill, which made her already youthful face look even younger. No wonder Qiao Shiyue didn't dare to recognize her.
She hadn't seen herself at sixteen or seventeen, but the Qiao family had.
So why hadn't Qiao Pengyu been surprised by her change last time? Had he never paid attention to her, or was there another reason?
Shen Yunyun didn't have time to think. Qiao Zhenguo and Guo Yuhua had already reached her.
Qiao Pengyu and his two brothers also stepped out of the elevator.
"Yunyun, you dare to come back?" Qiao Pengyu's anger flared at the sight of her.
Last time, she protected that wild man and beat him black and blue without even asking about him. She only cared about that wild man. Now she wanted to return to the Qiao family? No way.
Qiao Zhenguo's face darkened, and he turned away.
Qiao Penghua and Qiao Pengjian quickly came over too.
"Yunyun, did you get some beauty treatment? Which hospital did you go to? Did you get a facelift? It looks pretty natural." Qiao Pengjian immediately leaned in to ask.
Guo Yuhua perked up her ears at that, eager to know where she had it done.
