The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback-Chapter 5 - : The First Brush with Death Task
Chapter 5: Chapter 5: The First Brush with Death Task
Gu Wenjuan had the kind of cute looks and, like Mo Shu, was 20 years old and still a college student.
At the moment, she was dressed in a long, light yellow dress with her hair obviously well-coiffed, yet her demeanor didn't match the proud and elegant heiresses surrounding her.
But when it came to looks alone, she was more than just a little behind Mo Shu.
And right then, Gu Wenjuan was completely unaware that Princess Mo, the center of everyone's attention, was watching her.
She had been hungry for a long time, and now, with so much food at the party, Gu Wenjuan couldn't wait to fill her stomach.
But as she ate, she felt as though someone was watching her.
Gu Wenjuan looked toward this gaze and, at a glance, saw an extraordinarily handsome man.
The man was dressed in formal attire, neat and tidy, like a knight from ancient times, elegant yet also intimidatingly noble.
He had a pair of beautiful, almond-shaped phoenix eyes and was currently leaning casually on a sofa, idly swirling a crystal wine glass, his expression devoid of much emotion, as if lost in thought.
Gu Wenjuan blushed immediately upon realizing that such a handsome guy had caught her sneaking food, quickly put it down, and turned away.
Mo Shu, who noticed this, did not miss the teasing and interest in Yu Siqiao's eyes.
The main female character getting caught stealing food by the CEO at a party was a classic meet-cute scenario, wasn't it?
Mo Shu also became somewhat interested, looking at Gu Wenjuan with an unmistakably scrutinizing gaze.
Soon, someone noticed Mo Shu's gaze, gave a signal to the others, and immediately someone 'invited' Gu Wenjuan over.
As standard for the main female character, Gu Wenjuan was naive, kind, unpretentious, and without scheming. She had never met or heard much about Princess Mo or Yu Siqiao, and naturally didn't know how terrifying they could be.
At this moment, Gu Wenjuan came over with a face full of surprise and exclaimed in admiration, "Princess Mo, you are truly beautiful! I've never seen someone as beautiful as you!"
Upon hearing Gu Wenjuan's words, the surrounding people sneered.
"She's heard that kind of flattery too many times, can't you say something different?"

"What are you wearing, and that cheap perfume you sprayed, don't you know Princess Mo dislikes it? Who let you in here?"
"I know her, she seems to be Gu ZhenGuo's illegitimate daughter, what's her name... Gu Wenjuan? She had been living in the countryside all along and was only brought back a couple of years ago."
In just a few words, Gu Wenjuan's background was mercilessly exposed.
The people around them eagerly waited for the drama to unfold.
Princess Mo had been too well-behaved, preparing for her engagement ceremony for so long, it had been a while since anyone had seen Princess Mo deal with someone. They didn't know what this poor girl did to offend Princess Mo, but now they anticipated a good show.
Although Gu Wenjuan was somewhat dazed, she knew that the people around her were not friendly, and her expression changed, not daring to speak any further.
She looked up timidly toward Mo Shu, who was surrounded by people like the moon surrounded by stars, and couldn't help but feel her heart stir.
Mo Shu swirled the clear crystal glass, as if casually asking, "What's your name?"
His voice was soothing, striking a chord in one's heart.
Mo Shu's gaze was calm, but the innate nobility and authority exuded from his bones made Gu Wenjuan feel an unprecedented sense of inferiority.
She felt inexplicably afraid and said cautiously, "I... my name is Gu Wenjuan."
