Quick Transmigration: The Villainess Is a Sweetheart

Chapter 27

Conveniently, the Stepwife of Gu Family had gone out to play mahjong today, and she hadn't returned when Gu Yuming came back.

As a result, Gu Ziang suffered.

Gu Yuming stood at the door of his room, his face gloomy and his gaze cold, but his tone was fierce: "Get out here!"

Previously, no matter what Gu Ziang had said to Gu Yuming, he would be ignored, so Gu Ziang had never experienced his fierceness and was not afraid of him.

But this time, as soon as Gu Yuming spoke, he was so panicked that his aura shrank by half: "You, you want to do what! I won't talk to you..."

Gu Yuming had always had a bad temper and was impatient, so he dragged him out and scolded him harshly. There was no need for him to lay a hand on him, as Gu Ziang was already nearly scared to the point of wetting himself just by seeing his attitude.

In the evening, the Stepwife hurried back with a flustered expression, as if she had encountered some tricky situation. Even when Gu Ziang tried to complain to her, she showed no reaction.

Gu Ziang was immediately heartbroken, feeling that this family could no longer accommodate him, and even his own mother didn't love him. But soon, he really started crying.

What was suffocating was that Gu Yuming didn't even have the chance to cry.

Monday was the day most hated by students, as they were forced to wake up early, wearing loose school uniforms, and carrying heavy backpacks in the cool morning.

Yu Family's Driver was always punctual and steady when driving the car. Jiang Yan, sleepy-eyed, pushed open the car door and carried her backpack towards the school gate.

Ji Chu strode with his long legs, following behind at an unhurried pace. Boys develop later, and the once tiny Ji Chu was now much taller than Jiang Yan, already over 1.7 meters tall in his second year of high school.

Thanks to the privilege of the Yu Family's daughter, Jiang Yan successfully applied for a seat by the window in the back row. And Gu Yuming, on the other hand, secured the seat next to her through his own merit.

At the very back was the bookshelf of their class, filled with books provided by the school, including history, nature, science, and various literary works. Jiang Yan had already read through them all twice.

Today, she was reading "Records of the Grand Historian" again.

Gu Yuming idled on his phone, but his peripheral vision could clearly see her side profile.

Her black hair was tied in a high ponytail, with an excessive amount of hair softly fluffed out. Fine, dense strands of hair obscured her pale cheeks, revealing only her vaguely ink-painted brows and eyes, her elegant nose bridge, and her misty, bean paste-colored lips.

Gu Yuming couldn't help but get distracted, thinking that Yu Jiangyan was so beautiful, yet she had a bad temper and was picky with her words. If he were to become her boyfriend in the future, he would have to coax her a lot.

His own temper wasn't good either, but for some inexplicable reason, he never got angry in front of her.

It was a nice day today, with a cool breeze merrily weaving through the green leaves, and the bright, radiant sunlight filtering through the window, faintly outlining the youthful and budding figures of the boys and girls.

Suddenly, a news notification popped up on his phone, interrupting his daydream. Annoyed, he thought about uninstalling the app. However, when his gaze fell upon those words, he froze.

It was the exaggerated and sarcastic style typical of the media: "Shocking! The Gu Family Bankrupt, Members Fled Abroad with Embezzled Funds..."

A dozen eerie words coldly summarized the dramatic downfall of a wealthy, prestigious family.

Outside, the sunlight remained ardent, but the silhouette of the young man was flustered and scorching.

Perhaps due to having read it twice, Jiang Yan gradually fell asleep on her desk as she read.

When she woke up with a small red mark on her face from the book, it was already the long break. Jiang Yan was about to continue sleeping when she suddenly overheard some whispering from the boys in front.

"The Gu Family went bankrupt? Is it true or not?"

"Didn't you see Gu Yuming rushing out of class? It must be true!"

"The news even has pictures of his dad..."

Jiang Yan's expression changed instantly.
