At this moment, Zhang Xianxian had nothing left to consider.
What could be worse than having one’s image completely destroyed?
So.
She no longer needed to hide anything in front of Bai Lu.
Bai Lu was almost unable to stand steady.
She couldn’t have imagined that faced with her consolation, Zhang Xianxian would react like this.
Even less could she have expected Zhang Xianxian to tell her to get lost.
No.
In her memory, Zhang Xianxian had both talent and beauty and was also very kind.
How could she have suddenly turned out like this?
Could it be...
Was her previous demeanor all an act?
And now the college entrance exam had revealed her true self?
While Bai Lu was still unable to respond, Zhang Xianxian spoke again, "Bai Lu! I told you to get out of the Zhang Family, are you deaf?"
With those words, Zhang Xianxian forcefully pushed Bai Lu out and then had the servants close the iron gate of the villa.
Bai Lu staggered and fell onto the ground.
Only at this moment.
Did Bai Lu truly see Zhang Xianxian’s true colors.
Grandma was absolutely right.
She was blind!
And completely so.
Meanwhile.
Bai Lu also felt somewhat relieved.
Relieved that she hadn’t made a big mistake and that it was still not too late to see the truth.
Half an hour later, Bai Lu drove back to the Lu Family.
Seeing her return so soon, Grandma Lu asked with curiosity, "Didn’t you say you were going out to clear your mind? Why are you back already?"
Bai Lu looked at Grandma Lu, "Mom, you were right. Zhang Xianxian is nothing but a white lotus, a scheming woman. I was blind before, thinking she was a rare good girl, not realizing just how ridiculously wrong I was until now."
Grandma Lu was taken aback. Had the sun risen from the west today?
"Are you alright?" Grandma Lu put down her spicy strips and reached out to touch Bai Lu’s forehead.
Well, no fever there.
Bai Lu said seriously, "Mom, I shouldn’t have talked back to you for someone like Zhang Xianxian, and I shouldn’t have even thought about matchmaking her with Sansan. I really deserve to die!"
Just recalling what she had done before filled Bai Lu with regret.
Seeing her sincerity, Grandma Lu smiled and said, "The fact that you were able to see Zhang Xianxian’s true nature in time shows you haven’t become utterly hopeless. Remember not to make the same mistake again!"
"Yes, I promise I won’t," Bai Lu assured.

Lin Wu, along with Shen Lijun and Miao Yajing, among others, had already boarded the plane to Capital City.
At three o’clock in the afternoon.
The plane arrived at Capital City Airport.
Qiao Ran was holding her cellphone, "I’ve booked a car to pick us up, Shen Lijun, send me the hotel address."
"Okay," Shen Lijun nodded, taking out her phone to send the address to Qiao Ran’s WeChat.
Soon, the chartered car took the four of them to the hotel.
The hotel had been booked by Shen Lijun—a suite with four bedrooms and one living room for the four of them.
The room was very large.
After entering the suite, Shen Lijun looked at Qiao Ran, "Sister Qiao, what do you think of this room?"
"Not bad, the location is pretty good," Qiao Ran put down her suitcase and went to the balcony, curiously saying, "Is that garden down there a scenic spot?"
Given that every inch of land in Capital City was valuable, Qiao Ran instinctively thought the large garden near the hotel was a scenic spot.
After all, she had seen several courtyard houses inside the walls of the garden and an artificial lake as well.
Shen Lijun smiled and said, "That seems to be the Tang Family’s private residence."
Yes.
She had done it on purpose, intentionally choosing a hotel close to the Tang Family.
Only in this way could she discreetly find Tang Shaowei and Fang Youling.
A private residence?
Hearing this, Qiao Ran’s eyes widened, "You mean that’s a private residence?"
"Yes," Shen Lijun nodded her head, "You don’t know about Capital City’s Tang Family?"
Qiao Ran immediately took out her cellphone to search for the Tang Family, and then let out a series of dog barks.
"Xiao Wu, Yajing, let’s not go to other sightseeing spots tomorrow, and just tour The Forbidden City nearby! We’ll rest up and then go to the Great Wall the day after," Qiao Ran suggested.
"Sounds good," Lin Wu nodded.
Miao Yajing had no objections either.
After dinner, the three girls lay on one bed chatting, while Qiao Ran lay on the sofa next to them.
Shen Lijun said with a smile, "Xiao Wu, I see your nails are pretty long, how about trimming them?"
With these words, she picked up a pair of nail clippers from the bedside table and handed them to Lin Wu.
Lin Wu took the clippers and began clipping her nails with a snip-snap.
After trimming her nails, Shen Lijun placed the clippers back where they belonged, "Xiao Wu, let me throw your nails in the trash can for you."
