Chapter 131 - Huo Qingyue's Wife Is Scuh Beautiful!
Lin Chuchu's face turned dark and resentful. She shook her head in disbelief, scrutinizing Gu Yuehuan. “Impossible! How could you be her? She was fat and dark-skinned. You're so slim now, and your complexion isn't dark. There's no way you could be that ugly woman!”
Gu Yuehuan didn't care whether they believed it or not. She didn't hold a favorable opinion of these women and offered the pastries to her male colleagues instead.
The group of women who had overheard Lin Chuchu's loud voice turned their gazes in their direction. They heard Lin Chuchu claiming that Gu Yuehuan was her husband's ex-wife, but they found it hard to believe. Had they been mistaken? How could she be the same fat girl they remembered?
Intrigued, everyone approached Lin Chuchu and kept staring at her. Gu Yuehuan's charm was undeniable. The male colleagues in the office couldn't help but accept the pastries with a smile. They were already smitten by her beauty and couldn't resist striking up conversations.
Huo Qingyue had returned by then. As soon as Lin Chuchu saw him, she clung to him like a life-saving straw and quickly spoke up. She anxiously asked, “Huo Qingyue, this woman claims to be your wife. But how can she be? Your ex-wife didn't look like this before. Did you divorce her, and then she married someone else?”
Huo Qingyue went over and embraced Gu Yuehuan, introducing her in a low voice. “She is indeed my wife. I have only one wife, and her name is Gu Yuehuan.”
The truth was evident, and they couldn't deceive themselves any longer. They couldn't believe how much weight she had lost. Her transformed appearance left those women, who were still conscious of their fair skin, speechless. Lin Chuchu, in particular, couldn't stop staring at Gu Yuehuan.
It seemed implausible. How could she be the same person they knew before? Wasn't she ugly back then? Why did she lose so much weight and have such fair skin now? In the past, she was as dark as a tan egg.
Women, especially the jealous ones, couldn't hide their discomfort upon seeing how stunning Gu Yuehuan had become.
Gu Yuehuan had come to deliver pastries this time, and with nothing else to attend to, she prepared to take her leave after leaving the treats.
Huo Qingyue escorted her out. As they left, some male colleagues in the office began to discuss freely.
“I heard Huo Qingyue's wife was fat and ugly, like a hideous monster. Turns out that was just a rumor! How could she be old and ugly? She's so beautiful! If I had a wife like her… I'd be willing to die under a peony flower!”
“Seriously, who spread that lie? If she's that pretty, I'd rather stay home than come to work!”
“Weren't these comments made by the women in our office? I thought his wife was some ugly monster. Since she didn't attend the wedding, none of us bothered to go either, right?”
“Yeah, if she was so attractive, we should have attended the wedding to catch a glimpse. We all thought she was unattractive. Little did we know she's this gorgeous! They make a lovely couple, and she's so modern, not at all like a country girl. Maybe that's why he called his wife a rustic girl.”
The women felt stung by these remarks, as if they had been slapped in the face. Their expressions showed evident discomfort.
