Yang Yajing felt her life was utterly worthless—single at 36; meager salary absolutely insufficient to cover her mother's medical expenses.
Her best friend not only stole the man she...
Even Yang Yajing has fair skin, while she has dark skin, so the contrast is really strong when they stand together.
But when Jiang Xuanxuan and her gang mocked her for her dark skin, she wasn't so polite!
I remember once, Jiang Xuanxuan recommended cosmetics to Yang Yajing again.
Chen Jiaoyun simply said: Yang Yajing doesn't have time to put on makeup, she's busy!
So Jiang Xuanxuan shifted her focus and told Chen Jiaoyun about whitening products and whitening foundations.
She spoke sincerely, and even advised Chen Jiaoyun to pay attention to sun protection, to avoid going out for outdoor sports in the summer, and to bring an umbrella when painting or sketching.
Before Jiang Xuanxuan could finish rummaging through it, Chen Jiaoyun said: "Black diamonds can't compete with city walls in whiteness, and watercolors can't compete with paint in thickness."
Jiang Xuanxuan was interrupted by a sudden, inexplicable remark and didn't quite understand it, but she did detect a hint of sarcasm in it.
In particular, Jin Yiyi's line, "Who are you calling the city wall?" revealed the true meaning.
Chen Jiaoyun didn't forget to add insult to injury: "Both are white, but will the city wall be loved by everyone? Both are colored, but can paint achieve the vibrancy of watercolor?"
Although it was meant as a monologue, it still made Jiang Xuanxuan feel resentful, so she had no choice but to play the victim and timidly seek Yang Yajing's judgment.
This is the opposite of my previous life.
In her previous life, Yang Yajing was always the one being ridiculed, while Jiang Xuanxuan would make sarcastic remarks and act as a peacemaker.
In this life, Yang Yajing returned all the words she had spoken.
One sentence: "Chen Jiaoyun is a young lady. Xuanxuan, although you meant well, Chen Jiaoyun is embarrassed." Her fiery temper inevitably leads to sharp tongues.
Another sentence: Jiang Xuanxuan, you're a magnanimous person who doesn't hold grudges against petty people. You're so forgiving. Why bother arguing with us ordinary citizens who are not worth our status? It's so degrading.
One more thing: Chen Jiaoyun isn't a bad person, she's just a paper tiger! Shall I try to talk to her for you?
That left Jiang Xuanxuan speechless and frustrated.
