Gu Zi said to Mo Li, "Miss Mo, you're doing a great job as a secretary. Also, the dipping sauce that comes with our braised pork is graded. Do you want the highest grade as well?"
Mo Li forced a smile, responding, "Yes, the best of everything. Miss Gu, you don't need to ask for each item, just use the best. The cost doesn't matter, as long as the gifts are good."
Although Mo Li was frugal, she understood that the money being spent wasn't hers. If Gong Zhan was willing to spend, why should she object?
Moreover, Mo Li saw this as a good thing. If Gu Zi could scheme to make Gong Zhan spend a large sum on braised pork, then she must not care much for him.
This meant that if she wanted to become Gong Zhan's legitimate woman, she only needed to push Lin Miao aside.
This would save her a lot of trouble. As long as Gu Zi didn't interfere, even if Lin Miao was released from prison, she would find a way to remove her from Gong Zhan's side.
