Chapter 6: Running Into Someone Familiar (3)
Chapter 6: Running Into Someone Familiar (3)
Alas, even the Yellow River changed its path every thirty or so years, life could be full of drama.
When Su Ran was still the Young Miss of the Sus, she was stuck up and spoiled and looked down on everybody around her. She barely had any friends. Later on, when she was pursuing the male lead and setting up the female lead, she had made even more enemies.
After Su Ran was banished from her family and slipped so far as to becoming a bargirl, many had rejoiced at the news. And many who have had unpleasant exchanges with Miss Su lined up to spend money to insult her.
And this Gu Jiahao was one of her regulars.
As time went on, either because these individuals started their careers and gotten married and became more mature, or that they felt that insulting Su Ran had became a routine and no longer entertaining, less and less people sought her out and picked on her.
From her memories, the last time she saw this Gu Jiahao was almost five to six years ago.
Looking at the man who was shriveling up at age 30, all Su Ran wanted to say was: bad people aged fast.
Su Ran, the villainess female supporting character in the original novel might be braindead, but her eyesight was perfect. This Gu Jiahao was a bad person through and through.
In the extra chapter, Su Ran died at this banquet. Whether that has anything to do with Gu Jiahao, she didnt know, but right now, she just wanted to turn over this page uneventfully and not be recognized by him.
Unfortunately, that would just be too good to be true.
After staring at this rude bargirl for a while, Gu Jiahaos eyes widened all of a sudden, and he snickered devilishly.
HAR HAR HAR. And I was just wondering about who was this impolite wh*re. Is this not our Young Miss Su Ran? Oh, I mean, the once Young Miss Su Ran.
What? Did you think I have forgotten about you after just a few years? Seeing a flash of surprise in her eyes, he continued to mock her, I will never forget the pretty face of Young Miss Su Ran.
Too bad youre scarred said Gu Jiahao as he stared at the scar on her forehead.
Come to think about it, he was one of them who helped make it happen.
Well, well, well. You hadnt changed much over all these years. Wait, that couldnt be true. I gathered business had been slow for you? Its been a few years, you are no spring chick anymore
Gu Jiahao was not holding back at all in insulting Su Ran, but the way he looked at her was filled with greed.
His deep hatred for her was only part of the reason that he recognized her; the other part was because now that she had no makeup on, she looked exactly the same as that once stuck up Young Miss Su Ran.
Back in the days, he had been crazy over that face. He didnt think the same face was still very attractive to him even after so many years.
Perhaps even more so than it was before.
For some reason that he couldnt put his fingers on, the Su Ran in front of him gave him an odd feeling.
She didnt have the weathered look after all these years in the red-light district. She had on the cheapest of all clothes, yet she still managed to look elegant.
Time seemed to have no effect on her at all except for looking more mature. Plus, the Su Ran right now didnt have the same cunning and twisted look that she once had back in the nightclub. What she exuded was calmness and a nonchalant indifference.
If he wasnt so certain that this was for sure Su Ran, and if he didnt know that this wenchs life was the lowest of all over the years, he would think that Su Ran was never banished from her family. Instead, he might have assumed she had married into the Songs and had been a rich mans wife the last few years.
He stopped going to pick on Su Ran because the thrill was gone, but now
Gu Jiahao licked his lips as he stared at Su Ran as though he was about to forcefully pull her into his arm at any minute.
Fuyus Ramblings: I think because Su Ran is someone that has already achieved success in her life before her transmigration, she has unshakeable self-confidence and justified surety in herself, so she doesnt care if a store clerk, Gu Jiahao, or anyone else looks down on her. She wont easily be intimidated by anyone. It would be like a lioness being scared of an ant.
