The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 87 - Who Still Believes in Child Marriages? 2

“Miss Gu, Mr. Li mentioned he left a card in your bag. Feel free to use it if you need money,” the driver said cautiously, glancing at her through the rearview mirror as he settled into the driver’s seat.

A card?

Gu Xiaoai was momentarily taken aback. She opened her bag and, sure enough, there was a card inside, with a password scribbled on the back.

There was no joy in her heart, just a lingering bitterness.

This was her compensation for being a mistress.

In her dad’s eyes, she was a well-behaved graduate student, but in reality… she had let herself fall into a state far from normalcy.

Would there ever be a day when she could return to her former self?

Her slender fingers tightened around the card, turning her fingertips pale…

During the week Li Juefeng was away, Gu Xiaoai found some peace. She spent her days covering news about the “Killing” film crew, and the sales of AK Weekly at the Magazine Publisher soared, almost reaching the top three nationwide, creating quite a buzz.

Her uncle was busy expanding the Magazine Publisher and promoted her to the editor-in-chief of AK Weekly.

Her uncle had questions about how she managed to secure the news coverage rights for the major “Killing” production, but Gu Xiaoai skillfully fabricated a story about getting along well with the Best Actress, Liu Zimi, to explain it away.

Only heaven knew how much she and Liu Zimi couldn’t stand each other.

“Wow, the Chu Family’s young master is getting engaged on Qixi Festival, which is today? It’s like an Eastern Valentine’s Day, so romantic.”

“Yeah, these days, the rich young masters are mostly disappointing in looks, but Chu Shixiu is actually handsome, and now he’s getting engaged.”

“No worries, which wealthy man doesn’t have a mistress nowadays? You should give it a shot. Maybe the Chu Family’s young master will take a liking to you.”

“Get out of here…”

…

Passing by the break room, Gu Xiaoai overheard two girls chatting inside and stood there for a while.

Chu Shixiu, getting engaged today?

His engagement ceremony must be quite grand…

Her phone vibrated, and seeing the word “Tyrant” flashing on the screen only deepened her gloom. With a sigh, Gu Xiaoai answered the call, “Hello, this is Gu Xiaoai.”

Since he went abroad, he called her twice a day.

And every time he called, he knew exactly where she was without her having to tell him.

At first, she suspected he had someone following her.

Later, a visit to the phone store revealed that her phone had been equipped with GPS tracking, which infuriated her to the point of nearly smashing it.
