As she finished speaking, Li Ziyan added, "Shan Shan, if you’re interested, I can introduce you to this influential person of mine. She might be able to help you out of your current predicament."
Upon hearing this, Sun Shanshan excitedly replied, "Really?"
"Of course it’s true," Li Ziyan nodded, "My influential person is called Sister Hong. She’s the richest woman in Qing City, definitely not short on cash. By the way, you can even find her on Baidu Baike."
"Really?" Sun Shanshan immediately took out her phone, "What should I search for?"
Li Ziyan said, "Her real name is Ouyang Hong, try searching for that."
It didn’t take long for Sun Shanshan to find information about Sister Hong on Baidu Baike.
According to the entry, Sister Hong was incredibly successful and lacked nothing. She was also listed as Qing City’s wealthiest woman.
Little did she know.
Such encyclopedia entries could be created for a mere hundred Yuan, and the information could be edited however one liked, without any reliability whatsoever.
After reviewing Sister Hong’s information, Sun Shanshan couldn’t help but marvel, "Sister Hong is really amazing."
Li Ziyan looked at Sun Shanshan and said, "Sister Hong is a very kind person. Shan Shan, do you want to go meet her with me?"
Sun Shanshan wouldn’t miss this opportunity and nodded with a smile, "Yes."
After the meal, Sun Shanshan got into Li Ziyan’s car.
Very quickly,
the car stopped in front of a luxurious villa.
As Li Ziyan approached the entrance, a servant came to greet her, "Miss Li."
Sun Shanshan was completely stunned.
She had only seen servants on TV. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
She never thought they existed in real life!
Li Ziyan, as if accustomed to all this, nodded and asked, "Is Sister Hong at home?"
"Yes," the servant nodded, "Please follow me."
The servant led Li Ziyan and Sun Shanshan into the hall.
There, they saw a plump middle-aged woman on the phone. As soon as she saw Li Ziyan, she immediately hung up and smilingly said, "Ziyan is here."
"Good afternoon, Sister Hong."
Sister Hong nodded, her gaze drifting to Sun Shanshan standing beside her, "And who might this be?"
"Sister Hong, this is a friend I’ve just made named Sun Shanshan."
Sun Shanshan was also sharp-witted, and quickly bowed, saying, "Hello, Sister Hong."
Li Ziyan continued, "Sister Hong, Shan Shan is more or less in the same situation I was in before; she has nowhere to go. Could you possibly... help her out?"
Sister Hong laughed lightly, "I can help her, sure, but I don’t keep freeloaders around here."
Sun Shanshan immediately responded, "You can rest assured, Sister Hong. As long as you can help me, give me a place to live, I am willing to do anything you ask."
"Quite the clever girl," Sister Hong said as she picked up a cup from the table and took a sip of water, "then you might as well stay here."
As soon as she finished speaking, Sister Hong looked towards a servant, "Go upstairs and prepare a bedroom for Miss Sun."
Sun Shanshan stood there, frozen.
Did Sister Hong mean she could also stay in this big villa from now on?
Li Ziyan tugged at Sun Shanshan’s sleeve and whispered a reminder, "Shan Shan, aren’t you going to thank Sister Hong?"
That snapped Sun Shanshan back to reality; she nearly knelt down to kowtow to Sister Hong, "Thank you, Sister Hong, thank you."
She could hardly believe her luck.
"Get up," Sister Hong stepped forward, smiling at Sun Shanshan, "You know, Shan Shan, you really resemble my daughter who passed away. The moment I saw you, I felt an inexplicable sense of closeness."
"I feel the same way," Sun Shanshan immediately agreed, "I felt close to you too. Maybe we were mother and daughter in a past life."
Sister Hong was, after all, the wealthy woman of Qing City!
Her net worth was several billions.
Even Lin Guixiang couldn’t compare to her!
As long as she kept Sister Hong happy, wouldn’t she have everything she wanted in the future?
Thinking this, Sun Shanshan was thrilled.
Li Ziyan spoke up at the right moment, "Sister Hong, I should be heading back now."
Sister Hong nodded and looked at the servant, "See Miss Li out."
"Yes, madam."
The servant escorted Li Ziyan outside and handed her a card, sighing, "Hurry and leave, and never come back again."
Li Ziyan accepted the card, "Thank you, Aunt Zhou."
With that, Li Ziyan drove off.
Soon, the car stopped at the rental company’s doorstep; after returning the vehicle, Li Ziyan took a taxi to a daily rental property, began packing her belongings, and prepared to head home.
When a bald man learned that Li Ziyan was returning, he came specifically to see her off, "Did Sister Hong give you the money, every last cent?"
"Yes," Li Ziyan nodded.
She had made a point to check at the bank on her way back.
There was exactly one hundred thousand Yuan in the card.
The bald man lit a cigarette, "Didn’t expect Sister Hong to be so reliable."
Li Ziyan stuffed all her clothes into a suitcase, "She’s been in this business for so long; how can she command respect without credibility?"
The bald man blew out a puff of smoke and nodded.
As he spoke, Li Ziyan looked up at the bald man, "Tell me, did I do the right thing?"
In pursuit of money and freedom, she had dragged an innocent girl into the abyss.
"It was Sun Shanshan’s own greed that doomed her, not you," the bald man spoke, continuing, "Besides, I’ve looked into it; that Sun Shanshan is an ungrateful wretch. Everything that’s happening to her now is her just desserts. You shouldn’t feel too burdened."
