The Female Lead Keeps Breaking Her Own Persona - Chapter 10
After Wang Chu left, Qu Anruo said, “Should I go to my sister’s place tomorrow to help her with the photoshoot?”
Gu Jingyun agreed. After she returned home, she had to start packing her luggage. She didn’t know why, but living with Qu Anruo from now on gave her a feeling that was hard to describe.
In the evening, Qu Anruo drove Gu Jingyun home. After dropping her off, she returned to the company and handed a key to Gu Jingyun’s assistant, Yuanyuan.
“From now on, you’ll be responsible for Gu Jingyun’s travel and must protect her,” Qu Anruo said to Yuanyuan very seriously.
She couldn’t stay by Gu Jingyun’s side all the time, and she couldn’t guarantee that Su Haodang wouldn’t look for Gu Jingyun again when she wasn’t around. This assistant was the best one she had found among several. Yuanyuan could handle all of Gu Jingyun’s daily needs food, clothing, housing, and travel and was highly skilled in combat, capable of performing a bodyguard’s duties.
“Yes, President Qu.” Yuanyuan didn’t expect Qu Anruo to trust her so much, and she was immediately filled with fighting spirit.
Qu Anruo looked at the motivated Yuanyuan and patted her shoulder with satisfaction.
【Impressive, Host.】 666 finally witnessed the power of a capitalist.
【It’s nothing.】 Qu Anruo said as she called to invite Fang Yumeng out.
“Ruoruo, you never come to play with me anymore” Fang Yumeng complained, hanging onto Qu Anruo the moment she saw her.
Qu Anruo comforted Fang Yumeng, who was clinging to her: “Alright, alright, I’m here now, aren’t I?”
“Speaking of which, Ruoruo still hasn’t differentiated yet,” Fang Yumeng remembered she had differentiated when she was 18, but her best friend Qu Anruo was 21 and showed no sign of it.
“Ah, no rush,” Qu Anruo said indifferently. Anyway, she knew she would be an Alpha when the time came.
Fang Yumeng became annoyed seeing Qu Anruo’s nonchalant attitude. “Let’s go! We’re going to the hospital to check!” She pulled the boneless Qu Anruo up from the chair.
“Huh? It’s really late now.” Qu Anruo, who was pulled up, wanted to go back and sit down, but Fang Yumeng dragged her and put her into the car.
“It’s not late, it’s just right. My relative hasn’t gotten off work yet, so we’ll go straight for a comprehensive check-up,” Fang Yumeng drove Qu Anruo’s car and headed straight for the hospital without a word.
The hospital was undoubtedly efficient. As soon as Qu Anruo arrived, several people surrounded her and performed a series of procedures. Afterward, she grimaced and rubbed her slightly swollen back neck. Good heavens, it really hurt.
“Are you done?” Fang Yumeng came up to Qu Anruo with her bag and examined her.
Qu Anruo sat weakly in the chair: “Yes, I’m done.”
Fang Yumeng went out to buy Qu Anruo some congee and watched her curiously. Qu Anruo drank the congee and looked at Fang Yumeng’s strange behavior, asking, “What’s wrong with you today? You’re acting so weird.”
“It’s just that the old man wants me to find a partner quickly, so I…” After saying that, Fang Yumeng looked at Qu Anruo.
“Don’t even think about it!” Seeing the look in Fang Yumeng’s eyes, Qu Anruo knew there was definitely no good news.
Fang Yumeng was about to say something but was immediately rejected by Qu Anruo. “I have someone I like.” Qu Anruo had no choice but to confess her feelings for Gu Jingyun.
Hearing this, Fang Yumeng’s gossip soul was ignited. She scooted closer to Qu Anruo and asked, “You’ve only known each other for a few days, haven’t you? So fast?”
“Gu Jingyun is so beautiful, who wouldn’t like her? Mengmeng, help me!” Qu Anruo grabbed Fang Yumeng’s hand as if she had found a life-saving straw.
“Ah, this…” Fang Yumeng was so anxious that sweat was almost breaking out on her forehead; she hadn’t dated much either! But seeing Qu Anruo trust her so much, she was too embarrassed to refuse and could only reluctantly agree.
“Yay!” Qu Anruo was so excited she almost jumped up. She heard her best friend had dated many people, more than she could count on her fingers, so with her advice, success was guaranteed.
【Host! I will help too!】 666 also eagerly chimed in.
Gu Jingyun, on the other side, was unaware that she had been targeted by a couple of people she was busy tidying up her house. This was a rented home after her parents passed away, and there was nothing to miss here. Their old house was seized by the court. Her parents didn’t leave much behind after they died, and anything valuable had been devoured by other relatives.
They had said they would celebrate her and her sister’s birthday that day, but they died on the way home from driving. They were even talking on the phone just before the accident, but unexpectedly, they got into a car crash. The culprit was nowhere to be found. Her parents, along with the car, fell down the mountain and the car was ignited. All that was found in the end were some broken empty frames and two unrecognizable, charred bodies.
Thinking of this, she lay down on the sofa and looked up through her hands. The past was best left alone. Now, she and her sister were doing well, and Qu Anruo had appeared in her dull life. She was looking forward to the days ahead.
“Tell me, how far have you two progressed now?” Fang Yumeng excitedly grabbed Qu Anruo’s shoulders and asked.
Qu Anruo scratched her face with a finger: “I think, perhaps, we hugged?” she said uncertainly.
“You’re amazing, Ruoruo!” Fang Yumeng was so happy when she heard this that anyone would have thought she was the one who got the hug.
“Haha…” Qu Anruo laughed shyly.
The two huddled together, strategizing while waiting for the hospital results. “Ruoruo, I underestimated you.” Fang Yumeng looked at the seemingly innocent Qu Anruo with reverence after hearing that the two were about to live together.
Qu Anruo looked at Fang Yumeng with an innocent expression, appearing pure and lovely, with a bewildered face that was especially deceiving.
“It really is you, Ruoruo.” Fang Yumeng clutched her chest. Anyone would be won over by Qu Anruo’s cuteness. She absolutely adored her best friend!
“Let go, Fang Yumeng!” Qu Anruo, who was bear-hugged by Fang Yumeng again, shook Fang Yumeng’s arms in panic.
“Miss, the test results are out.” A doctor handed several sheets of paper to the two.
Qu Anruo looked at the final result: she had a 90% chance of differentiating into an Alpha. Seeing the result, Fang Yumeng suddenly felt a little disappointed; her lovely Ruoruo had a high chance of being an Alpha.
“Darn it.” Fang Yumeng was almost in tears, but remembering that Gu Jingyun was also an Alpha, she looked at Qu Anruo with some worry.
“But if you differentiate into an Alpha, can Gu Jingyun accept it?” Fang Yumeng asked cautiously.
Qu Anruo had indeed forgotten about this. She didn’t mind such things, but Gu Jingyun was a native of this world. Could Gu Jingyun accept her as an Alpha? Thinking of this, Qu Anruo realized she had miscalculated.
Seeing the worried expression on Qu Anruo’s face, Fang Yumeng asked anxiously, “Are you okay, Ruoruo?” Should she have not brought up that question?
“I’m fine.” Qu Anruo shook her head and put the test results into her bag. She’d take things one step at a time. She hadn’t differentiated yet, so future matters could be discussed later.
