Chapter 119: How Is It That You Know Everything?
After finishing her task, Yao Yao slightly turned her head to look at Gu Shengyu. Her indifferent demeanor felt like a knife piercing his heart.
Hatred—Gu Shengyu was filled with it.
How could this woman slap his face in front of so many people?
His expression darkened as he glared at Yao Yao with a grim face.
Seeing this, Shen Tiantian realized it was over. She suddenly threw herself into Yao Yao’s arms, her admiration for her growing exponentially.
How could a goddess be so formidable?
She seemed to be capable of everything!
“Yao Yao, you’re amazing! How do you know how to do everything?” Tiantian asked.
Yao Yao gently patted her head with a smile, soothing her.
Compared to their joy, Gu Shengyu’s side was clouded with anger, creating a particularly tense atmosphere.
In a corner, Shen Yan hurriedly arrived.
Naturally, he had overheard Gu Shengyu’s challenge to Yao Yao.
Shen Yan had assumed Yao Yao would refuse, so he was prepared to step in. But to his surprise, she accepted—and even won.
What secrets did Yao Yao have?
Gu Shengyu, proud and arrogant, had been humiliated in front of so many people. He was furious.
In his rage, he glared fiercely at Yao Yao, then waved his lackeys, “What are you waiting for? Get her!”
They had been overturned earlier on the first floor because Gu Shengyu was caught off guard.
But now, with their numbers and power, Yao Yao and Shen Tiantian were nothing to fear.
Tiantian, still clinging to Yao Yao and acting spoiled, sensed something was wrong. She turned just in time to see Gu Shengyu leading a group to surround them.
Alert, Tiantian instinctively pulled Yao Yao back.
“Gu Shengyu, what are you trying to do? You refuse to accept defeat?” Tiantian challenged.
“What am I doing? I’m doing nothing!” Gu Shengyu sneered, reaching out to grab Tiantian, but Yao Yao shielded her.
Seeing this, Gu Shengyu’s fury only intensified.
“I’m just upset with her. I want to teach her a lesson. What’s wrong with that?”
“A lesson? You have quite the nerve.”
At that moment, a male voice rang out. Shen Yan, dressed in a suit, approached the crowd with a calm expression.
Gu Shengyu’s face changed at the sight of him, growing even angrier.
Why had Shen Yan come at such a critical moment?
That wretched woman Yao Yao had dared to oppose him today—he wanted to make her pay!
“Second Brother, you’re here…”
Shen Tiantian looked to Shen Yan for help. If he hadn’t arrived, who knew what Gu Shengyu might have done!
Second Brother?!
Hearing Tiantian’s words, Gu Shengyu and his group were stunned.
They had assumed Shen Yan came for Yao Yao, but it was because of Tiantian?
Tiantian was from the Shen family?
While studying abroad, Tiantian had never revealed her identity.
Gu Shengyu had thought she came from an ordinary background.
Now, drenched in sweat, Gu Shengyu realized if Tiantian dug into his past actions, he wouldn’t have enough lives to survive.
Even Gu Shengyu’s lackeys were sweating profusely, having bullied Tiantian with impunity before.
This, this…
However, Shen Yan merely glanced at Tiantian, then turned his warm gaze to Yao Yao.
“You okay? Nothing wrong?”
Tiantian was used to this kind of differential treatment.
It didn’t matter; as long as Second Brother and Sister Yao had a good relationship, nothing else mattered.
Yao Yao shook her head slightly, giving Shen Yan a faint look but no further response.
This scene left Gu Shengyu and the others dumbfounded.
Wasn’t it said that Yao Yao was sucking up to people like Shen Yan?
How had the situation turned upside down?
Even when treated coldly, Shen Yan wasn’t upset. He nodded, then turned his attention to Gu Shengyu.
“What did you say just now? Who do you want to ‘deal with’?”
Under this questioning, Gu Shengyu dared not speak.
The man confronting him was none other than Shen Yan, CEO of the Shen Corporation—someone he could not afford to offend.
His body trembled slightly, but he forced himself to stand firm.
With Tiantian present, he dared not back down. But thinking of her identity and his previous actions, he was terrified.
What had he done before?
“A misunderstanding,” Gu Shengyu managed to say.
“A misunderstanding?”
Shen Yan frowned. “I don’t think so.”
Hearing this, Gu Shengyu shuddered violently.
“You’re from the Gu family, right?” Shen Yan asked calmly.
Gu Shengyu said nothing, feeling as if his lifeline was being squeezed.
First, he recklessly provoked Tiantian. Then he chased after her, calling her “Little Potato.” Now he was opposing Yao Yao—this was unbearable.
“Get lost,” Shen Yan’s eyes turned cold. “You have three seconds to leave my sight, or else—”
Before he could finish, Gu Shengyu grabbed a few lackeys and fled.
Their speed was astonishing.
“Brother, why are you so slow?” Tiantian complained as only three remained.
Her words were naturally ignored by Shen Yan.
He just looked at Yao Yao, but before he could speak, she stepped away.
Yao Yao had no need to thank Shen Yan.
Whether he appeared or not, she could have handled this perfectly on her own.
After leaving the internet café, Yao Yao didn’t forget her original purpose.
She was here for inspiration.
Though Tiantian’s presence was subtle before Shen Yan, she held more influence with Yao Yao.
Clinging to Yao Yao, the two wandered through various clothing stores like sisters.
Shen Yan silently followed behind, accompanying them as they browsed.
After looking around, Yao Yao found some inspiration, though it was mostly from her previous creations.
Fashion was like this; talented designers often worked for big brands. Their designs would be copied here and there.
Since the plagiarism wasn’t extensive enough, it didn’t amount to infringement.
Moreover, these clothes would enter the market, and sending someone to collect fees for copying was time-consuming and pointless.
When they had seen enough, Tiantian dragged Yao Yao to a bubble tea shop.
They sat side by side, with Shen Yan opposite.
Tiantian’s eyes sparkled as she asked curiously, “Yao Yao, when did you learn to code? That’s amazing!”
“That Gu Shengyu is the top of our grade. You defeated him so completely without hesitation—it’s incredible!”
Even now, recalling Yao Yao’s skills, Tiantian felt thoroughly impressed.
Hearing this, Shen Yan raised his eyebrows, equally curious.
“I used to be interested, so I learned a bit.”
“Just a bit and you’re this good?”
Before Yao Yao, Tiantian was a mindless fan, believing every word.
“Oh my god, Yao Yao, what kind of god closed all the windows on you? How can you be so talented at everything!”
