Chapter 821: Chapter 821: Sisters Meet for the First Time
Zhen Youzhi adjusted his expression, putting on a fatherly demeanor.
He reached out to beckon Gu Jin, hoping she would come over.
Standing beside him was He Yuchun, who was drawn by his action and paused her pleasantries with the lady opposite.
Following her husband’s gaze, she immediately saw Gu Jin, who was dressed casually rather than in an evening gown.
Facing Gu Jin, her eldest daughter, she had always been displeased, showing no hint of joy.
It was Zhen Youzhi who was quite happy as he waved to Gu Jin.
However, the latter completely ignored him, turned her footsteps toward the dressing room where Zhen Lingling was.
This behavior was observed by Zhen Youzhi and He Yuchun, whose expressions turned unhappy.
Until the person opposite inquired, "This girl seems unfamiliar, whose family is she from?"
It turned out that several people standing opposite also looked in the direction of the Zhen couple and immediately saw Gu Jin’s figure.
"Just an ill-mannered wild girl!" He Yuchun spoke with full displeasure.
Zhen Youzhi squinted his eyes, scanning her with a stern look.
Noticing his displeasure, He Yuchun pretended to be oblivious, her heart filled with hatred toward Gu Jin.
If it weren’t for Gu Jin not returning to the Zhen Family, her precious daughter Lingling wouldn’t have married Liu Bochang, who, as a man, couldn’t act like one!
Zhen Youzhi withdrew his displeased gaze, explaining to the few in front of him with a full smile: "That’s our eldest daughter, she’s had some disagreements with us over certain matters."
A lady exclaimed, "Ah! So Boss Zhen actually has a daughter?"
The man beside him, in a well-tailored suit, showed a flicker of insight in his eyes: "Just now, looking at her, that girl indeed bears some resemblance to Boss Zhen."
"Indeed, especially the girl’s eyes, they’re identical to yours—"
Facing the comments, true or false, Zhen Youzhi was delighted by the flattery.
He also felt that Gu Jin resembled him; otherwise, how could she, at such a young age, have amassed wealth comparable to that of the Zhen Family?
...
Over here, Gu Jin had noticed Zhen Youzhi earlier.
But she was too lazy to deal with him.
At this moment, she wanted to see Zhen Lingling.
In her past life, this so-called good sister didn’t spare efforts to trip her up.
Despite being a pawn of both the Zhen and Liu families, Zhen Lingling always found fault with her, causing constant trouble.
Gu Jin stopped in front of a room, looking up at the words "Dressing Room" on the door, her lips slowly curling into a smile.
She extended a hand, pushed open the door without announcing her arrival.
Inside, seven or eight girls were gathered around Zhen Lingling, chattering away without knowing what, and Gu Jin’s uninvited presence interrupted them, making the room suddenly go quiet.
Zhen Lingling stared at the mirror in front of her, seeing Gu Jin standing at the doorway behind.
The casual outfit and the vibe she emitted were utterly unpleasant.
Upon meeting Gu Jin’s eyes that hinted at amusement, her heart throbbed harshly for a moment.
Perhaps it was natural repulsion, strained familial ties, or Gu Jin’s stunning, peerless beauty.
Various indescribable factors made Zhen Lingling instinctively dislike Gu Jin upon first sight, her heart filled with repulsive hostility.
Having dealt with Zhen Lingling for over twenty years in her past life, Gu Jin could tell from a single glance that this still immature girl wore all her thoughts on her face.
Gu Jin slowly stepped into the dressing room.
One of the girls standing beside Zhen Lingling spoke up: "Who are you?"
