Mingyao hurriedly explained, "No, I just didn't expect Sister Wang to come pick me up."

Just as she was about to leave, Wang Lina's gaze passed over Ming Yao and landed on Ni An, who was not far away.

Her brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.

"Xiao Su, I'm not trying to be mean," Wang Lina said earnestly, "You become like the company you keep. You should avoid contact with Ni An in the future. You two are from completely different worlds."

Mingyao was puzzled, wondering why she suddenly brought this up.

“Sister Wang, Ni An made a mistake, but she is not irredeemably evil.”

Seeing that Mingyao hadn't realized what was going on, Wang Lina leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Before Ni An got together with Lin Bin, she was a mistress to three old men."

"While she was with Lin Bin, she also had a man in his fifties."

Mingyao stared wide-eyed in disbelief, gasping, "Sister Wang, you can't just say things like that!"

“I specifically investigated this girl.”

When Ni An was mentioned, Wang Lina curled her lip in disgust, as if she were some kind of filthy thing.

She snorted before continuing, "You think Ni An smells so much like a prostitute at such a young age? It's because that's what she does."

“All of Ni An’s designer brands, from head to toe, were bought for her by those older men.”

"Otherwise, what could she possibly buy with that little salary?"

The information Wang Lina shared was devastating for Mingyao.

She had considered the possibility that Ni An might make a mistake, but she never imagined it would be this outrageous.

Without concrete evidence, Mingyao still refused to believe it.

Just as she was about to speak up for Ni An, Ni An's bitter laugh suddenly came from behind her.

"Sister Su, you forgot your charger."

Mingyao paused for a moment, then hesitantly accepted the gift: "Thank you."

"It's alright, I'll be going now."

Ni An left without looking back, her eyes red and tears welling up in them.

She heard everything Wang Lina said.

This is the past that Ni An least wants to look back on, but once some things start, there's no going back.

Moreover, Wang Lina's words were deliberately said to her.

Thinking of this, Ni An clenched her fists.

What will Mingyao think?

Or will she find her just as disgusting as Wang Lina?

She was afraid to hear the answer from Mingyao, so before she could reply, she rushed forward and interrupted the two of them.

Looking back now, Ni Anxin feels utterly devastated.

Mingyao was the only friend she could talk to, and she didn't want to lose her.

and……

Ni An stopped, turned around, and looked in the direction where Madam Wang's car had disappeared, her eyes narrowing slightly.

After staring at it for a while, she shook her head, clearing her mind of the jumbled thoughts.

Mingyao and she are the same kind of people. No matter how Wang Lina slanders her, she will always stand by her side.

Ni An began to comfort herself, and her mood improved somewhat.

“Ni An, it’s time you saw reality clearly.”

Xia Kexing's voice suddenly came from behind. Ni An frowned, turned around, and glared at her fiercely.

What are you doing here?

Xia Kexing stood less than ten meters away from Ni An, who belatedly asked, "Were you following me?"

Xia Kexing had a gentle smile on her face and looked at Ni An with tenderness.

"Don't be nervous, I didn't come here to argue with you."

"Heh, I have nothing to say to you!"

Because of Mingyao, Ni An disliked Xia Kexing intensely, and felt nauseous just looking at her face.

Xia Kexing caught up with Ni An in a few steps and blocked her way.

"Ni An, how long do you intend to keep deceiving yourself?"

“I overheard Su Xueya’s conversation with Madam Wang.”

At that time, the coins she was using on the bus fell to the ground and rolled into the trash can next to Mrs. Wang's car.

She heard everything Madam Wang and Mingyao said.

Xia Kexing was not shocked; on the contrary, everything was within her expectations.

None of the receptionists are clean women; no matter how glamorous they appear on the surface, their bodies are filthy.

Ni An was like this, and Ming Yao was even more so.

Now that Ni An's glamorous side has been exposed, the next one will be Ming Yao!

Xia Kexing didn't want to wait too long, so she decided to join forces with Ni An to expose Ming Yao's true colors.

Ni An's face turned ashen, and her gaze toward Xia Kexing was filled with horror.

She clenched her fists, took two steps back, stared intently at Xia Kexing, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Xia Kexing took two steps closer to Ni An, and smiled, "You and Su Xueya are good friends, but look what she's done?"

“You two are clearly the same person, but Mingyao always maintains a glamorous image in front of everyone.”

"But you were treated like trash, and were despised by everyone."

"Ni An, don't you want to change the current situation?"

Ni An knew she had ill intentions, so she ignored her words and retorted sarcastically, "Xia Kexing, do you think everyone is as hypocritical as you?"

"Sister Su is not that kind of person!"

"Don't even think about sowing discord!"

After saying that, Ni An's eyes flashed with anger, and she said angrily, "If you speak ill of Sister Su in front of me again, I won't be polite to you!"

She glared at her again and strode away.

After being turned away, Xia Kexing felt as if a stone was stuck in her chest.

Is Ni An an idiot?

Even after Wang Lina said those things to her, she still has illusions about Mingyao!

They'll get screwed over sooner or later!

Xia Kexing glared at Ni An's retreating figure and left indignantly.

After the two had completely disappeared from sight, Guo Xiaorong emerged from the corner.

She watched the two people walking in different directions, a strange smile appearing on her face.

It seems there's quite a story behind Haichang Branch; we must dig deeper.

Meanwhile, Madam Wang brought Mingyao to Angel City.

"You can't dress so plainly when you go to a banquet."

"I originally wanted to go shopping with you to pick out a dress, but Xingchen is still waiting for me at school, and I have to go pick him up."

Wang Lina handed Mingyao a black card and said generously, "I know you don't have much money, feel free to use it."

Mingyao quickly refused; how could she possibly spend Wang Lina's money?

She also wanted to tell Wang Lina that she was not short of money and that her husband was a big shot.

No matter how Mingyao refused, Wang Lina wouldn't agree. She even put on a stern face and pretended to be angry, saying, "If you don't accept it, I'll really get angry!"

Helpless, Mingyao had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

After Madam Wang left, Mingyao returned the black card to Wang Zhouheng and said softly, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."

The black card seemed too hot to handle; Wang Zhouheng was unwilling to take it at all and even took a few steps back, warily distancing himself from her.

“If my sister finds out you gave me the card, she’ll definitely give me a piece of her mind.”

The fear on Wang Zhouheng's face seemed genuine, and Mingyao couldn't help but sneer: "This originally belonged to your sister, why would she punish you?"

"Miss Su, please accept it."

“You are Wang Xingchen’s savior. This money is nothing compared to your kindness.”
