Chapter 665
Chapter 665: Chapter 657: Kick Her Out of the Car Chapter 665: Chapter 657: Kick Her Out of the Car She hadn’t had enough fun yet, she was still young, and she had several more years to enjoy herself, but while she wanted to play, Gu Ning couldn’t anymore.
Even if Gu Ning was willing to wait for her, what about Gu Ning’s family?
What if they introduced Gu Ning to other women?
What if Gu Ning fell for someone else, got married to them—where would her money come from, where would she find her support?
She was used to spending money lavishly, and all that money was Gu Ning’s.
Gu Ning also had many businesses, all of which were highly profitable.
If she lost Gu Ning, what would she do, how would she live?
She lacked the ability to make money.
She claimed to be an overseas returnee, an international student, and returning from abroad supposedly gilded her in gold.
In an era where technology advanced rapidly in China, anyone returning from abroad was sure to find a good job and earn a salary.
But however high the salary, she likely couldn’t earn it.
In the years she spent abroad, what schooling had she really done?
She hadn’t even completed her college credits, and that was abroad; if it had been in China, she would have been expelled long ago.
What had she been doing all this time?

What else could she do?
Haven’t you noticed how beautiful she’s become now?
She knew she was ugly, and even if she never admitted it, the label ‘ugly’ still stuck to her, especially after she arrived in Beijing.
People, out of respect for Gu Ning, wouldn’t say anything to her face, but she had overheard others comment more than once that this child was so ugly—if it were a boy, it might be acceptable, but for a girl, being this ugly, how would she ever get married.
So, once she was abroad, she started getting plastic surgery.
Today, it was double eyelid surgery, keeping her out of school for months.
Tomorrow, nose augmentation, and another few months without school.
The day after, maybe a chin procedure.
In short, with one thing after another, it wasn’t just the pain or the spending she didn’t talk about—after all, it wasn’t her own money she was spending, so it didn’t hurt to spend.
She became more beautiful and gained confidence, but her studies were a mess.
Now, she could barely even speak English.
When asked what she had learned abroad over the years, the answer was how to get plastic surgery.
Originally, she didn’t want to come back at all—why return to such a backward place?
But she was afraid of losing her financial support, and she had to admit, sometimes a woman’s intuition can be eerily accurate.
Take Zhang Xiaomei, for example.
Gu Ning was still the same as before, not initiating contact, but the monthly allowance always arrived in her account on time.
Although she still received the money each month, she sensed something was off, which is why she came back.
Yet, upon returning, she felt out of place everywhere, even the air in China didn’t seem comfortable to breathe.
Truth be told, she really wanted to go back.
If only Gu Ning could go back with her, how wonderful that would be—then she wouldn’t fear anything.
However, she was very aware that it was impossible for Gu Ning to go abroad.
Given the nature of his work, unless something unexpected happened, it was impossible for him to leave the country.
This was what Zhang Xiaomei disliked the most—after all these years, she had only seen Gu Ning’s money, never the man himself.
With so much time passing, was she even going to remember what Gu Ning looked like?
At first, she was quite pleased.
No one monitored her, it didn’t matter whether she attended classes, as long as she had money to spend.
Moreover, she secretly dated several boyfriends behind Gu Ning’s back, though these relationships ultimately ended in breakups.
It was only in this year’s turnover that she began to feel some insecurity and a sense of crisis in the house she was responsible for; otherwise, she really didn’t want to come back.
As it turned out, her return was justified.
She didn’t know which vixen had gotten entangled with Gu Ning, to the point where he couldn’t even find the time to come home, leaving her to take a taxi back on her own.
It was with great difficulty that Gu Ning agreed to go shopping with her, yet he had abandoned her here and disappeared.
What kind of boyfriend was this?
Shortly after, Gu Ning came back carrying several lunch boxes.
He opened the car door only to see Zhang Xiaomei still wearing a long face, sitting inside like someone had taken half of her steamed bun away.
“If you want to go shopping, get out of the car and go by yourself,”
Gu Ning placed the lunch boxes aside and sat down in the driver’s seat, ready to drive away.
“I’m not going.”
Zhang Xiaomei clutched her chest, glancing at the lunch boxes placed on the back seat by Gu Ning.
With so much food, he wasn’t a pig, how could he possibly finish it all?
And knowing Gu Ning’s character—he wasn’t the type to be extravagant and wasteful.
So, this must have been bought for some other woman, right?
By now, Gu Ning had already fastened his seatbelt and clearly didn’t take Zhang Xiaomei’s mood into account.
Of course, if one looked closely, they might notice a flicker of impatience in his eyes.
Minor it was, but it was there.
“Just get out of the car here,” Gu Ning said indifferently, and his lukewarm attitude directly fueled the already irritable Zhang Xiaomei.
Her temper, spoiled by years of living large, flared up.
“Why should I get out of the car?” She lashed out with her foot and kicked the car, inadvertently flinging off her high-heeled shoe in the process.
“I’m going to the company,” Gu Ning had already started the car, waiting for Zhang Xiaomei to get out.
Zhang Xiaomei bit her teeth, forcefully opened the car door, and stepped out.
ƝονǤᴑ.ᴄᴑ
She stomped on the ground with force, only to hurt her own feet in the process.
She tiptoed, only able to glower resentfully at the car that was already driving off into the distance without a trace.
The company, so-called, wasn’t an ordinary company at all; it dealt with matters of security, beyond secure.
It wasn’t a place she could enter, nor one where just anyone could gain entry, including its Beijing headquarters, which wasn’t easily accessible.
If she wanted to go to the hospital, it could be arranged, especially with Gu Ning there, but she wasn’t sick, why go to the hospital?
The main office didn’t have a cosmetic surgery department, otherwise, she would’ve gone there immediately.
She was completely dissatisfied with the shape of her face; she had plans to shave off a bit more bone from the sides.
She envied the small faces of those celebrities; she wanted a petite face like theirs.
It was her mother’s fault for giving her a square face at birth, no amount of makeup or hair could hide it, and, in the end, it was still a square face.
An unattractive face shape ruined everything; she had been planning to have the bone shaved off in a little while.
If she hadn’t felt something was off with Gu Ning and returned to the country, she might have already had the surgery and transformed completely.
She touched her face and flung her arm, swinging the expensive designer handbag she was carrying, preparing to go shopping.
Meanwhile, Gu Ning had driven into the courtyard where Tang Yuxin resided.
The car conveniently stopped inside.
Just as he drove in, a serene atmosphere welcomed him—the air was fresh and his mood lifted without reason.
