Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again-Chapter 2916 The Banquet Is About to Begin, Let’s Go

Gu Hengbo's face twitched and his temples throbbed, but it could not compare to the palpitations of his heart as the female wolf stared at him.

He pinched his palm, his expression and gaze cold. He threatened with a low voice, "Ziyin has the reclusive families backing her. You can't win. I've already placed the ladder in front of you. If you're smart, go down the ladder. Otherwise…"

Qiao Nian's ears were already callused because of this talk.

She dug her ears and looked at Gu Hengbo again with a calm expression. "Then tell Ji Ziyin to get the reclusive families to deal with me."

Gu Hengbo was at a loss for words.

If he could get Ji Ziyin to teach Qiao Nian a lesson, why would he wait until now?

After all, the Gu family and himself had been destroyed by this girl.

If he could take revenge, he would have done so long ago! f𝚛𝗲𝐞𝐰e𝗯n𝗼v𝗲𝚕.𝚌o𝐦

However, every time he mentioned Qiao Nian, Ji Ziyin would find an excuse to brush him off. Otherwise, she would become unhappy.

He could not bring it up again.

Gu Hengbo suppressed the surging hatred in his chest and pursed his lips, then straightforwardly said, "Do you acquire a painting?"

"Huh?" Qiao Nian had thought he was here for the celebration.

Who knew that Gu Hengbo knew about the painting?

"How much do you want?"

However, Gu Hengbo didn't know much. Perhaps it was not Ji Ziyin who told him about it.

"I want the painting. Sell it to me. Money isn't a problem. Just give me a number."

…

Qiao Nian looked at him deeply. She was sure he knew little about this matter. However, he had probably heard from somewhere that Ji Ziyin wanted this painting, so he came to take it and 'present' it to Ji Ziyin.

She did not deliberately make things difficult for Gu Hengbo. She looked away in boredom and lightly said, "If she wants the painting, ask Ji Ziyin to come and get it from me herself."

Then, Qiao Nian turned to leave.

Gu Hengbo tried to stop her. "I told you, money is not a problem! Sell the painting to me. You can name your price."

Qiao Nian glanced at him sharply. Her hands were still in her pockets, but her aura became sharp.

"Move aside.

"I won't say it a third time.

"You should still remember how much the Gu family suffered last time. Do you think the Gu family can withstand it again?"

Gu Hengbo's outstretched hand froze in midair, and his expression stiffened.

He watched as the girl left. He was so stunned that he did not dare to chase after her.

The chauffeur was even more anxious than him. "Old Master, why did you let her leave? She hasn't accepted the invitation. Do you want me to get her back?"

Gu Hengbo returned to his senses and looked at the girl's departing figure sinisterly. His facial muscles twitched and then calmed down.

Scowling, he slowly lowered his hand. "Let's go back."

The chauffeur followed him in surprise. "Old Master, aren't you inviting her anymore?"

"… The banquet is about to begin. We'll be late if we don't go now." Gu Hengbo did not answer directly, but his throat felt as if it was stuffed with cotton. He felt uncomfortable no matter what he did.

The chauffeur shut up upon seeing that he did not look too good. He glanced in the girl's direction before opening the door of the car.
