Chapter 216 The Battle Between Women

Not long after Shi Yurou's treatment ended, the doorbell rang again.

Gu Feng went out to open the door and found that the person who came in was actually the clerk. He smiled and said with a laugh, "Hehe, I was wondering why there were magpies chirping so loudly this morning. It turns out that a distinguished guest has arrived. Clerk, please come in quickly."

"Kid, stop with the nice things you say. I'm not going in. You, on the other hand, hurry up and come with me." The advisor grabbed his sleeve.

"Go? Where to? What for?" Gu Feng was completely confused.

"What? The mess from last night isn't even over yet, and you're already trying to wash your hands of it? How long has it been since you promised your cheap father-in-law?" The advisor rolled his eyes.

"Well..." Gu Feng hesitated, looking a bit embarrassed, and said, "It's not that I don't want to care, it's just that I promised my sister I wouldn't go out today. This week is finally a weekend, and I wasn't home all day yesterday, so my sister is already complaining."

"Ugh, how old are you? Still letting a woman boss you around?" the advisor said irritably.

"Master, having someone look after you is a wonderful thing, and you can't envy that." Gu Feng said with a self-satisfied look. He was always serious in front of Ding Lisheng, but in front of his master, he had long been used to being disrespectful.

The advisor immediately made a gagging face: "Fine, fine, fine, I know you have someone to take care of you, you're lucky, but you've really crushed me, okay? Are you satisfied now? So how's today? Miss is still waiting in the car, aren't you going to the Ding family?"

Gu Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, the things we need to discuss don't necessarily have to be done at the Ding family's place. We can talk about them at my house too."

The advisor thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's true. We behind-the-scenes bigwigs don't need to do everything ourselves. As long as the plan is meticulous and detailed, that's enough."

These words were exactly what Gu Feng wanted to hear, and he quickly followed up, saying, "That's right, it's all just theory anyway, so what difference does it make where we talk about it?"

"Alright, I'll go and invite Miss over right away." The advisor said, turning and leaving.

Today, Ding Hanhan is practically fearless. But it's only "practically"—there's still one person in this world who terrifies her: Su Man'er. That unforgettable slap still haunts her.

But some things, like the responsibilities she couldn't shirk, couldn't be avoided by running away. Ding Hanhan knew very well that if she wanted to be with Gu Feng, she would have to get past this woman sooner or later. So, after thinking it over in the car, she finally steeled herself, opened the car door, and walked towards the Su family's courtyard.

As fate would have it, Su Man'er and the others stayed upstairs like chicks all morning without coming down, but they appeared at the stairwell the very moment Ding Hanhan entered the room.

One was at the door, the other upstairs. Upon seeing each other, both women froze simultaneously.

In that brief instant, Gu Feng seemed to see a silent lightning bolt between the two of them, crackling and bursting with countless sparks.

Women are naturally very sensitive. Although Su Man'er and Ding Hanhan hadn't uttered a single word, Chen Qingqing, Xu Yan, and Zhao Xiaojing had already sensed something was amiss, and the three words that simultaneously popped into their minds were—a love triangle. If even they could guess it, how much more so would Shi Yurou, with her keen and perceptive mind?

It seems that although the sky is clear today, a fierce battle is probably inevitable.

Just as everyone was secretly preparing to mediate the fight, something unexpected happened.

Ding Hanhan's face froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered. Though she couldn't force a smile onto her icy expression, her thin pink lips moved with difficulty, uttering a few words—

"Hello, Sister Su."

The idea of ​​the arrogant and haughty Miss Ding taking the initiative to greet a woman who had once slapped her hard was something that even Gu Feng, let alone others, thought was a fantasy.

But ironically, this impossible thing actually happened right before our eyes.

No one's ears were faulty, and no one misheard—Ding Hanhan was indeed making advances towards Su Man'er.

Perhaps everyone would say that Su Man'er is a somewhat realistic and greedy woman. Yet, in many matters, she is sensible and considers the bigger picture. Especially when facing Gu Feng, she almost never thinks of herself first. Her love for Gu Feng is great; but from another perspective, it also carries a hint of humility. Precisely because she loves him so much, there are some things she can tolerate, but there are also things she simply cannot bear.

The moment Ding Hanhan greeted her, she subconsciously wanted to reply with "Hello, Sister Ding," or something else. If she had actually said it, the two women might have been able to reconcile and end up happy together.

But when the thought flashed through Su Man'er's mind that "this is the woman who slept with my man," her heart, which had just softened a little, hardened again.

You little vixen, you think I'll forgive you just because you called me "sister" and said hello? Then you can sleep with my man openly and without guilt? Hmph, you wish! Too bad, not a chance. Su Man'er thought to herself, and couldn't help but let out a cold snort. That soft snort sounded like both a response and, more than anything, a complete disdain.

Ding Hanhan's expression immediately turned awkward. She stood there, her face flushing red and then turning pale, her emotions churning inside her, but she managed to hold back and not lash out.

Her unexpected performance made Gu Feng realize once again that she had indeed grown up and was no longer the arrogant, willful, and reckless eldest daughter of the Ding family.

"Those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly." This saying is very true. Gu Feng, caught between the two women and in a confusing situation, couldn't see clearly, but the clerk standing to the side saw it all perfectly: the reason why Miss Ding could be so humble and silent was simply because she didn't want to put Gu Feng in a difficult position.

He felt extremely conflicted, torn between the two sides; it wouldn't be good to stand on either side.

Everyone froze, the atmosphere incredibly awkward, and even the advisor didn't come to the rescue. Left with no other option, Gu Feng reluctantly stepped between the two, using his body to shield them from each other's gazes, and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Sister, the advisor and Han Han have come to talk to me about something."

"So you mean I should avoid you?" Su Man'er almost blurted out. But just as the words were about to leave her lips, she caught a glimpse of Chen Qingqing and the other girls quietly shaking their heads at her, and then she suddenly realized: in this matter, her behavior just now was really not generous enough, even, one could say it was a bit petty. And this kind of behavior would not only fail to win back the man's favor, but would only push him further away.

She quickly composed herself, straightened her expression, and forced a smile, saying, "Okay, you two talk. I was just discussing going shopping with Qingqing and the others."

Go shopping? Chen Qingqing and the other girls looked at each other in confusion. Just now you were urging us to go back quickly, saying that you were going to stay at home all day and not go anywhere.

But in an instant, the women realized that their little Manman was trying to save face for her man and not embarrass him too much.

Since we can't afford to offend them, we should just hide away for now and avoid trouble.
