Gu Yin gripped the phone tightly in her hands when she heard the call disconnect. Her eyelashes and her hands were trembling slightly as she logged onto Weibo after snapping out of her daze. As soon as she saw the International Composer’s Association’s post, which was trending online, however, her face turned ghastly.

  She played the video and watched it to the end, her mind snapping like a twig when she heard the conversation between her father, her sister, and Wen Zexing. There were more than five hundred thousand comments below the post, but she dared not read them. Still, she saw the two most popular comments.

  [No one forced Gu Yin to say that the piece was hers. It’s obvious that she’s using Gu Mang to become Master Bi’s disciple!]

  [The Piano Association has thoroughly embarrassed itself on the internet by denouncing Gu Mang!]

  Below the International Composer’s Association’s post was a public apology from the Piano Association. Even though it was published just a minute ago, the comment section was filled with hate comments. Not even Master Bi was spared from criticism. Gu Yin had completely embarrassed both the Piano Association and the maestro.

  She dug her fingers into the edge of the bed and bit her lower lip as she forced herself to calm down. Just then, her phone suddenly started ringing. It sounded especially loud in the deathly silent room. A jolt ran through her stiff body as she slowly shifted her gaze to the phone. Upon realizing that the incoming call was from Master Bi, her eyes went out of focus from anxiety. She only reached for her phone with trembling fingers after it rang a second time……

  The reason An An had been able to move around freely all these years was because her father had protected her so well to the point that not many people knew that she was his daughter. Hence, when Lu Chengzhou revealed her existence through various channels, it spread across the world in less than an hour. In fact, An An had already encountered a few batches of assassins and was now badly hurt. Country K’s Secret Service, who were stationed in the capital, rushed her to the airport overnight with the intention of sending her back to the presidential palace, but their private plane was stopped from taking off by the authorities.

  Meanwhile, at the presidential palace, Joston slammed his fist on his desk out of fury. “Lu Chengzhou leaked the news? What is he trying to do?!”


  Noelle was not looking too good either as she worried about her sister’s safety. “I had someone look into it. It looks like An An has offended Gu Mang again.” After saying that, she handed a tablet to her father.

  Joston took it from her and scanned through the displayed information, his expression becoming darker. His eyes glowed with anger as he said, “Just because An An bought fake accounts to insult Gu Mang, Lu Chengzhou revealed her identity to the world?!”


  His daughter remained silent.

  “He’s sparing no effort to go against us just because of a woman, huh?” He tossed the tablet onto the table, his chest heaving out of anger.

  Noelle looked at her father with pursed lips. “Dad, we should get An An back first. I heard that she’s suffered a gunshot.”


  No matter how much he disliked his troublemaker daughter, he had to bring her back first. As he suppressed his anger, he picked up the landline on his desk……

  Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang were leisurely enjoying their noodles in Royal Garden’s dining room. Gu Mang cut the egg yolk portion out from her fried egg and placed it in Lu Chengzhou’s bowl. The man simply silently watched her. Just then, his phone, which was placed on the table, suddenly rang. He glanced at the screen before turning to look at his fiancée again. “Have you finished spending the seven billion you received previously?”


  She instantly understood what he was referring to. Propping her chin on a hand, she smirked. “The more money I have, the merrier I’ll be.”


  With a laugh, Lu Chengzhou accepted the call.

  “Mr. Lu, this is Joston speaking.” The caller sounded really humble. “I’d like to apologize to both you and Miss Gu for what An An has done.”
