Stepped Over Her Vicious Stepsister To Become The True Bigshot! Chapter 281 Problem

281 Problem
“Old man, is your daughter short of money to treat her illness? How about this? I’ll buy all these things. Take the money to treat your daughter.”
In order to maintain her goddess image in front of Zhang Yue, Gu Rou took out her wallet from her bag. However, she did not bring much cash today, but it should be enough to buy this pile of broken stones.
She was about to hand the money to the old man when he pushed her away.
“It’s not enough, it’s not enough. These stones are worth millions. It’s not enough, it’s not enough at all!”
He shouted crazily, scaring Gu Rou so much that she retreated.
Zhang Yue hugged Gu Rou’s shoulder. Gu Rou found someone to lean on and quickly shrank into his arms.
For some reason, when Zhang Yue saw Gu Man, he wanted to push Gu Rou away.
Gu Man frowned as she watched the old man’s actions. He seemed to not have heard anyone else’s charity and was targeting her.
Even the people beside him could tell that something was wrong with the old man.
“Why is this old man targeting Miss Gu? Could it be that he knows her identity? He’s deliberately trying to extort a large sum of money to treat his daughter?”
The discussions of the surrounding people fell into Zhang Yue’s ears. His face was filled with confusion. Was the identity these people were referring to Gu Man or Gu Rou? But what was Gu Man’s identity? If it was Gu Rou, the only identity the two of them had was that they were members of the Gu Family. What was there to be amazed about?
Gu Rou, who was nestled in Zhang Li’s arms, naturally heard this. She subconsciously thought of Old Master Cui and subconsciously tightened her grip on Zhang Yue’s waist. It was only when she heard a gasp that she suddenly came back to her senses.
Gu Rou patted Zhang Yue’s waist gently and straightened her back, pretending that nothing had happened.
She now understood that Zhang Yue was not interested in her showing weakness and acting coquettishly. In that case, Gu Rou planned to play hard to get.
This was a critical moment. She needed the Zhang Family’s help, so Zhang Yue could only belong to her.
“I was out of line just now. I’m sorry.”
Gu Rou’s sudden cold attitude confused Zhang Yue, but what made him even more curious was the Miss Gu that the crowd was talking about.
“What’s your daughter’s illness?”
Seeing that Gu Man finally responded to him, the old man hurriedly said excitedly, “She’s cold all day and weak, but the doctors we invited all said that her body is normal and there’s nothing unusual.”
The old man’s emotions finally returned to normal, completely different from his crazy appearance just now.
This made Gu Man curious about this. “I’m just a little girl. Why do you think I can save your daughter?”
The old man hesitated for a moment and looked up at Gu Man nervously.
“If you come with me to see my daughter, I’ll tell you.”
The pupils covered by messy hair were not as turbid as Gu Man had guessed. Instead, they were clear and bright. However, his face was filled with wrinkles and dirt, making him look a little dirty.
Gu Man was deep in thought. It seemed that this old man was not as simple as he looked.
Jiang Yi grabbed Gu Man. “This old man is a lunatic. No one has seen his daughter before. He might be lying to you.”
Zhang Yue looked at Jiang Yi holding Gu Man’s wrist in dissatisfaction and coughed. “Gu Man, there’s something wrong with this person. You shouldn’t leave with him.”
“I have my own plans.”
Gu Man first replied to Jiang Yi, then turned around and looked at Zhang Yue mockingly. “I wonder who was just saying that I was disrespectful to the old man.”
The cold words and mockery made Zhang Yue’s face turn red, and he looked a little embarrassed.
Gu Man only looked at them casually and looked down at the old man.
“Lead the way.”
The old man quickly wrapped all the stones in the stall in cloth and looked around carefully, making them seem extremely precious.
Gu Man couldn’t help but find it funny. She was a little curious why the old man was so sure that this stone was precious. The others were clearly denying it. “Is there any special meaning to your stone?”
“You’ll know if you follow me.”
“Gu Man, are you really going with him?”
