Xu Xinchen couldn't tell whether these middle-aged women were teasing her or genuinely lamenting their past hardships, so she could only stand there dumbfounded, smiling at them.

Perhaps because Xu Xinchen didn't speak, but had a smile on her face, the middle-aged women seemed to like her quite a bit.

The middle-aged woman who was the first to speak to Xu Xinchen cleared her throat, about to ask Xu Xinchen some questions, when she heard a cold laugh from the side.

"Ha, a boyfriend, huh? You're really shameless. Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue when you say something like that?"

Xu Xinchen frowned immediately, turned around, and looked in the direction from which the voice came. The person who could say such things in this place must be an acquaintance.

Sure enough, after she saw the face of the person who spoke, a strange feeling that she couldn't quite explain welled up inside her.

At the very edge of the pool, Wang Xue, Wang Ting, and their mother and daughter were staring at Xu Xinchen with disdain. The one who had just mocked Xu Xinchen was Wang Xue.

Xu Xinchen frowned deeply, wanting to refute Wang Xue's words, but before she could speak, she heard the middle-aged woman next to her suddenly spit out a "pui!"

"You need to tone it down a bit. So what if that young lady has a boyfriend? Are you envious or jealous? Is it really necessary to say such sour things here?"

After being lectured by the middle-aged woman, Wang Xue naturally showed a resentful expression: "But the problem is that person..."

He's not her boyfriend.

"So how do you know if she's his boyfriend? If she wasn't, would he bring her here? Why are you so foul-mouthed?"

Wang Xue was furious after being lectured by the middle-aged woman. Her gaze fell on Xu Xinchen, who was staring blankly at the woman, and she thought of what had happened a couple of days ago when she went to Xu Xinchen's company building.

The combination of these two things instantly enraged him. Pointing at Xu Xinchen, he said angrily, "That man is not this woman's boyfriend, but the sugar daddy of this woman she's keeping. Only a woman with a thick skin could call him her boyfriend."

However, Wang Xue clearly did not leave a good impression on the middle-aged woman, so the woman did not believe Wang Xue's words. She sneered, with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

"Why do I hear jealousy in your words? What? You've really taken a liking to someone else's boyfriend?"

Before Wang Xue could reply, the middle-aged woman looked at her with a pitiful expression and said, "You've taken a liking to someone else's boyfriend, but he doesn't like you, right? Is that why you're making fun of that young girl?"

Wang Xue was instantly furious, pointing a trembling finger at the middle-aged woman: "You, you, you're talking nonsense!"

However, what Wang Xue didn't know was that her flushed face and extremely angry reaction only made people think that the middle-aged woman's guess was correct.

From the moment Wang Xue and her two daughters entered the hot spring, everyone else had a terrible impression of them. So, after the middle-aged woman finished speaking, people around her immediately started jeering.

"Could it be that Sister Mei was right? Is she just saying that because she couldn't win someone else's heart, she's resorting to slandering a young girl?"

"Thinking about it, it makes sense. Looking at this girl's fair and clean appearance, you can tell that her boyfriend must be an outstanding person. It's normal for others to covet him."

"Young lady, you have to be careful. Some women these days are really shameless. If you're not careful, they'll start rubbing against your boyfriend. You'd better keep a close eye on him."

"You...you..."

Wang Xue was so overwhelmed by the constant sarcasm that she almost fainted. She clutched her chest and gasped for breath.

He tried to speak with a trembling voice, but could only manage to utter the word "you," unable to say anything else.

The middle-aged woman raised her eyebrows. Seeing Wang Xue's appearance, she delivered another fatal blow to Wang Xue: "If you feel like you can't take it and are about to faint, then hurry up and get out. Don't stay in the hot spring for too long. Don't blame us for not being able to adapt to the temperature of the hot spring later."

Wang Ting and Wang Fu had remained silent ever since Wang Xue was surrounded and mocked by a group of people, seemingly wanting to see how Wang Xue would react to their ridicule.

Unfortunately, Wang Xue's performance was really too poor. In just a few words, she was almost knocked unconscious by the other party's provocation. Madam Wang blinked and reached out to poke Wang Xue's forehead.

His tone was laced with a lecturing tone: "If you can't speak properly, then don't talk nonsense. Look at the mess you've made of yourself. I don't even know how to clean up this mess for you. Now get out of here."

Wang Xue looked up in frustration and saw the faint anger on her mother's face. She could only suppress her own anger and obediently climbed out of the pool, turning to walk outside.

After Wang Xue left, Madam Wang and Wang Ting continued to soak in the hot spring with their eyes closed, no longer bothering Xu Xinchen and the group of middle-aged women.

Seeing that Wang Ting and Madam Wang did not continue Wang Xue's lead, the middle-aged woman pouted with regret: "Why did you stop after only a few words? I had just started to speak. It's really disappointing."

Several middle-aged women nearby burst into laughter: "They've already driven everyone away, what more do they want?"

"Be content, be content. Just say a few words and let her leave."

Xu Xinchen was caught off guard by this unexpected support and didn't quite understand what was going on. When she finally realized what was happening, her gaze towards the middle-aged woman and her group became more affectionate.

"Auntie, thank you for helping me out of that situation." Xu Xinchen sincerely thanked the middle-aged woman, and also nodded to the other middle-aged women beside her: "Thank you all too, aunties."

The middle-aged woman who first spoke up for Xu Xinchen waved her hand, her face full of indifference: "No need to thank me, no need to thank me, what's there to thank me for? That woman can't say anything nice, I've wanted to give her a good scolding for a long time."
