Upon hearing this, Jiang He also threw Gu Xiao’s relations.h.i.+p with the Chu family to the back of her mind. She walked to Ji Gao’s side and held his hand.

“That’s why I said that Yaoyao is the best and most filial. Just look now. 1 was right!”

Ji Gao laughed heartily and praised Ji Yao. Jiang He also echoed his praises from the side.

Ji Yao stood obediently at the side and listened to their praise with a happy expression. However, the moment she lowered her eyes, uncontrollable disgust burst out.

Ji Chen looked at the three people in harmony in front of him and sighed inwardly. He turned around and went upstairs as well.

Not long after the banquet ended, someone leaked photos of Gu Xiao’s family attending the banquet.

Because it was news about the banquet and Gu Xiao, a few photos instantly became popular online.

[This is the first time I’ve seen Gu Xiao after “Rural and Urban” ended. Why does it feel like Gu Xiao has changed in the blink of an eye?]

[When I watched “Rural and Urban” previously, I thought that the only aspect that Ji Yao defeats Gu Xiao in was her appearance. I didn’t expect Gu Xiao to beat Ji Yao now.]

[If it weren’t for the fact that Gu Xiao’s face shape hasn’t changed, I would have suspected that Gu Xiao had gone for plastic surgery. This change is too big!]

[Who’s standing with Gu Xiao? They look alike! ]

[Ahhh! 1 didn’t expect to see Gu Xiao again. Previously, 1 was already attracted by Gu Xiao because of her perfomance in “Rural and Urban”. Now, I want to be a loyal fan of Gu Xiao!]

Never underestimate the power of people who liked looks. Not long after the photo was released, it was trending.

The moment Chu An saw the trending topic, he called Gu Xiao.

“Xiaoxiao, have you seen Weibo?©”

Hearing Chu An’s words, a trace of confusion flashed across Gu Xiao’s eyes. “What happened on Weibo?”

Chu An laughed arrogantly. “Xiaoxiao, I don’t know who posted that photo of you. Now, everyone on Weibo is praising you for being good-looking. Some even say that Ji Yao was crushed by you. She is completely inadequate!”

The disgusting things that Ji Yao had done had always made Chu An hold a grudge. Therefore, every time he saw someone say bad things about Ji Yao, Chu An would appear abnormally happy.

When Gu Xiao heard this, she raised her eyebrows. She clearly did not expect that a photo could cause a storm on Weibo.

In her previous life, after Ji Yao became famous through “Rural and Urban”, Weibo was filled with praises for Ji Yao’s beauty.

Thinking about this, Gu Xiao could not help but laugh out loud.

After she came back to her senses, she asked the person at the other end of the phone, “Did you do anything this time?”

“This time, 1 didn’t know at all. I was only informed after the photo became a trending topic. It seems that many people like Xiaoxiao!”

How could Gu Xiao not hear the jealousy in Chu An’s last sentence?

However, she thought that if someone said that they liked Chu An, she would probably be a little jealous too.

“But 1 still like you the most!” Gu Xiao lowered her voice and said gently.

When these words fell on Chu An’s ears, he could sense some yearning in her words.

His dissatisfied mood was immediately appeased. However, he felt a sudden desire to see Gu Xiao.

Chu An blushed. “I miss you so much, Xiaoxiao.”

If Xiaoxiao was right in front of him right now, he would be able to pull her into his arms and relieve the pain of missing her.

The two of them talked intermittently for a long time. When it was too late, the two of them reluctantly hung up.

The next day, when Gu Xiao went downstairs to eat, she saw Ji Yao, who was sitting beside Jiang He, looking at her with a dark expression. If not for the fact that she had to act like a good child in front of Jiang He, Ji Yao would have rushed in front of her and hit her ruthlessly.

Gu Xiao raised her eyebrows, not understanding why Ji Yao was crazy so early in the morning.

Then, she stopped in her tracks and suddenly remembered the news Chu An had told her last night.

Could Ji Yao be angry about what happened on Weibo last night?

With this thought in mind, there was a hint of relish in the gaze Gu Xiao directed at Ji Yao.
