she is sweeter than sugar

Before Chu Shixian had any chance to speak, Gu Jinqing suddenly looked in another direction.

"Cousin Zhiran, you're here, why don't you come to say hello?"

Hearing these words, Chu Shixian immediately looked in Gu Jinqing's direction.

As expected, she saw Gu Zhiran sitting not far away.

Gu Zhiran...had never told her that she would come to the coffee shop today.

Thinking of what she told Gu Zhiran in the morning that she had an appointment with Mr. Song, Chu Shixian suddenly felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Gu Zhiran never expected that Gu Jinqing would directly point out her existence as soon as she came.

Her heart tightened subconsciously, facing the gazes of Chu Shixian and Gu Jinqing, she could only stand up.

"Mom, second cousin, cousin..."

She showed a generous smile, but she didn't explain why she was here, with an extremely natural attitude.

Seeing Gu Zhiran like this, Chu Shixian immediately suppressed the faint feeling of weirdness in her heart.

When she saw Wen Runian at Gu Zhiran's table, she put on a gentle and generous smile again.

"Zhiran, are you chatting with your classmates here?"

While speaking, Chu Shixian's eyes turned to Wen Runian very naturally, she nodded towards him, and showed a generous and decent smile, which was regarded as a greeting.

"Yeah." Gu Zhiran said, "I saw that my mother and cousin were busy, so I didn't come up to bother you, I just sent you a message."

Chu Shixian subconsciously picked up the mobile phone in the bag, and saw the message that Gu Zhiran had sent her more than ten minutes ago.

At that time, it was probably the time when Gu Zhiran, Wen Runian and others entered the coffee shop.

When seeing this news, Chu Shixian's heart was completely relieved, and her mood became soothed again.

"I didn't see your message just now."

Chu Shixian didn't care that Gu Zhiran and Wen Runian came to this coffee shop and saw the scene of Gu Ci's blind date with Mr. Song.

But if Gu Zhiran deliberately used her to do this without telling her, she would be very concerned.

She intentionally or unintentionally looked in Wen Runian's direction.

"Isn't this helping Ah Ci meet her partner? It's too late to take care of your news."

Gu Zhiran sang along, "It doesn't matter to me, Mom, the matter of my cousin is more important."

"As expected, Zhiran, you are the most sensible."

As she said that, Chu Shixian turned her gaze to Gu Jinqing again, and said with some elder teaching, "Jinqing, I know that Cici is your younger sister, so you protect her, but you blindly spoil and praise her." It will only make her grow more and more crooked, and it's time for her to listen to the truth. After all, honest words are harsh, if you praise her like that, she will forget who she is in the future."

"Could it be that I made a mistake?" Gu Jinqing's eyes showed some doubts, as if she really didn't understand, "Is there anything I said that is not accurate enough, I hope my aunt will clarify."

Chu Shixian was also a little confused for a while, whether Gu Jinqing really didn't understand, or said so on purpose.

"Isn't what I said clear enough? Is my Zhiran not better than Gu Ci in any way? But Jinqing, you are turning black and white like this... It's too unfair."

Gu Jinqing smiled, "So that's what my aunt said."

Chu Shixian, "Naturally."

Gu Jinqing "I was not rigorous enough just now."

"That's more or less the same." Chu Shixian said with a hint of arrogance in her eyes.

however……

"Cousin Zhiran is not as good as A Ci in terms of grades, or inferior to A Ci, in every way... Besides, she has this character," Gu Jinqing's eyes flicked across Gu Zhiran's body, as if her eyes had already covered her. People see through it, "It's not as good as Ah Ci."

For some reason, under Gu Jinqing's gaze, Gu Zhiran suddenly had a feeling of nowhere to hide, and subconsciously avoided Gu Jinqing's gaze.

When Chu Shixian heard this, it seemed as if she had received a huge insult.

She asked angrily, "Jinqing, which eye of yours sees that Zhiran is not as good as Gu Ci? You still have to speak with a conscience!"

Gu Jinqing smiled, "I saw it with both eyes."

Chu Shixian, "???"

"In terms of grades, my family, Ah Ci, ranked first in the Youth Olympiad, with perfect scores in several other subjects. Cousin Zhiran is not as good as that."

"In terms of appearance, I believe I don't need to say much, as long as you have eyes, you can tell."

"As for the others..." Gu Jinqing looked at Chu Shixian friendly, "Why don't auntie give an example of one or two cousins ​​of Zhiran who can compare to Ah Ci?"

Gu Ci almost choked on Gu Jinqing's words, and touched her nose in embarrassment.

Chu Shixian was at a loss for words for a moment, and then her face turned livid.

Even though Chu Shixian thought that Gu Zhiran's piano accomplishments would definitely surpass Gu Ci's, she couldn't say it at this time.

In terms of grades and appearance, Gu Zhiran has already fallen behind. Even if she is better at piano than Gu Ci, so what?

Gu Zhiran could hardly maintain her composure.

It was the first time that she was said to be so useless in public, and she was not as good as Gu Ci in everything...

Her long nails directly dug into the palm of her hand, and the scar that had already scabbed opened again.

It seems that since Gu Ci came back, the wounds on her palms began to appear one after another, and they never healed...

She smiled miserably, and her face was a little pale, "So in the heart of the second cousin, I am so useless..."

Seeing Gu Zhiran's pitiful appearance, the people around couldn't help but frowned, looking at Gu Jinqing's eyes with a bit of condemnation.

"Not really," Gu Jinqing pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"It's all about the Gu family. My Aci can do it, but cousin Zhiran can't do it. Shouldn't I reflect on myself? I'm doing this for the good of cousin Zhiran. I believe that cousin Zhiran and aunt You must be able to understand my painstaking efforts and accept my love."

Chu Shixian just felt that her throat was blocked by something, neither up nor down, it was very uncomfortable.

On the surface, Gu Jinqing's words were for her own good, but in fact, anyone could hear it. In the words, Gu Jinqing had already demoted Gu Zhiran to nothing. Who cares about this kind of good for her?

However, she just couldn't refute a word, and even pinched her nose to say thank you to Gu Jinqing!

Chu Shixian couldn't describe such a disgusting feeling anyway, she was out of breath, "I was clearly telling you about Gu Ci just now, why did you drag it on my Zhiran?"

Gu Jinqing said kindly, "Auntie, I also said that you don't need to worry about Ah Ci's affairs, let you worry about cousin Zhiran."
