Xia Xinxin's glistening, round tears clung to her eyelashes as she looked in surprise at the boys in front of her who were avoiding her like the plague.

No, this shouldn't be happening!

Xia Xinxin relied on this tactic of playing the victim to gain sympathy, and while it might not be said that it was always successful, it at least never failed!

Knowing that she could no longer hide the fact that Xia Chuyue was a fake heiress, Xia Xinxin decided to go all the way and play the victim to solidify Xia Chuyue's image as a villain!

As soon as it started, the people who should have been watching and joining in all avoided it.

Xia Xinxin felt anxious and uneasy, as if something she couldn't have predicted had happened.

The male celebrities were utterly terrified when they heard about Xiao Chuan's fate.

The Xiao family is large and powerful. Although it has declined somewhat in Xiao Chuan's generation, its strong financial resources are still there and cannot be compared with them!

And so, Xiao Chuan ended up with a broken leg and fingers.

They dared not even imagine what a tragic end they would suffer if they got close to Xia Xinxin!

Forget about pitying a beautiful woman's tears, you should worry about your own life first!

The male celebrity immediately took a half step back, looking down at his nose and completely ignoring Xia Xinxin.

Some of the female celebrities who came as companions secretly gave the philandering young men a look, warning them not to act impulsively.

These young masters from wealthy families were no pushovers either; they raised an eyebrow but made no move to approach.

So Xia Xinxin's aggrieved look was like throwing a flirtatious glance at a blind man; no one offered a word of comfort or help!

Bai Rui was smug, thinking that her threat had worked, and her face lit up with joy.

"You see? That's how powerful the Bai family is. Nobody dares to go against us!"

The onlookers couldn't help but fall silent for a moment.

This young lady of the Bai family really has to thank her father and brother for spoiling her!

Xiao Chuan, who was unaware of the truth, was furious. Seeing Xia Xinxin looking so wronged and pitiful, he wanted to speak up for her.

"You've gone too far..."

"elder brother!"

Xiao Zi, with a solemn expression, squeezed out of the crowd and grabbed Xiao Chuan's hand.

"Your parents are looking for you over there. Come with me."

Xiao Zi has a good relationship with his second brother, Xiao Chuan, and it's impossible for him to just stand by and watch him step into the abyss.

She grabbed Xiao Chuan and dragged him away.

Xiao Chuan was very indulgent towards his younger sister. As he was pulled away from the center of the crowd, he seemed somewhat helpless.

"Xiao Zi, don't be in such a hurry. You're a grown woman now. You need to be more mature in your actions."

Xiao Zi, a free-spirited and decisive person, narrowed her eyes upon hearing this, put her hands on her hips, and snorted coldly.

"I'm fine as I am, but you are! You're not allowed to help that Xia Xinxin anymore!"

Xiao Chuan frowned slightly, somewhat disapproving.

“Xin Xin is a very kind-hearted girl. As you just saw, Miss Bai and Miss Xia were indeed a bit aggressive.”

Xiao Zi really wanted to give her blind brother a good whack and wake him up!

Xia Xinxin's white lotus scent was so strong it was almost overflowing, making Xiao Zi feel nauseous. And his second brother was blind enough not to see it!

"I won't allow it! You're absolutely not allowed to have any contact with Xia Xinxin, Second Brother!"

Xiao Zi grew anxious, and her eyes reddened slightly as she thought of her second brother's fate.

When Xiao Chuan saw Xiao Zi's sad and aggrieved expression, he was momentarily lost in thought.

However, he quickly regained his composure and was led by Xiao Zi to Xiao's parents' house.

Xia Xinxin, who was in the center of the crowd, watched as Xiao Chuan, the only person who had helped her, was pulled away. Her pitiful expression finally broke down completely.

Why is everyone working against me?!

Do they really have to idolize Bai Rui and Xia Chuyue?!

When these two people you hate the most get together, the level of your dislike skyrockets!

Xia Chuyue turned around, gave Xiao Chuan and Xiao Zi, who had walked away, a meaningful look, and clicked her tongue.

These two seem to have some juicy gossip going on!

"Oh, so lively?"

A casual, mocking voice rang out. Before Pei Qi even got close, someone recognized him and hurriedly made way for this gentleman.

Pei Qi walked over with one hand in his pocket, a sullen smile on his face as always.

He walked over with an air of nonchalance as people made way for him.

Xia Chuyue's lips twitched slightly as she watched this person showing off.

For some reason, even though she wasn't pretending, Xia Chuyue felt an inexplicable awkwardness!

This young master's style is so unique that it's almost unbearable to look at!

Thank goodness I firmly refused to be with Pei Qi back then! Otherwise, if he dragged me into this kind of situation later, I'd be digging my toes out of a three-bedroom apartment!

Xia Chuyue likes to quietly complain and gossip, preferably as a quiet bystander in a corner, so that she can enjoy the gossip as she pleases!

Unlike Pei Qi, who always has to get involved whether there's something to it or not!

I hate people who show off!

Those present who heard Xia Chuyue's thoughts couldn't help but gasp.

Pei Qi confessed his feelings to Xia Chuyue?!

What a shocking piece of news!

They always thought that this young master Pei, with his sharp tongue and straightforward manner, was heartless and devoid of love.

I never expected that person would still have this kind of stubbornness!

This news was so shocking that everyone's eyes lit up instantly.

The moment Xia Xinxin saw Pei Qi approaching, her face lit up with ecstasy.

She thought that her recent gestures of goodwill towards Pei Qi had worked, and that Pei Qi had come to back her up.

"Pei Qi, come here..."

Pei Qi's gaze had been intentionally or unintentionally fixed on Xia Chuyue, and only when he heard Xia Xinxin's voice did he lazily glance at her.
