A golden treasure chest opened in my mind.
[Ding! The host successfully opened the care gift package, +500 magic points. Cumulative: 1000 magic points.]
No matter how thin a mosquito's legs are, they are still meat. It is better to have them than not to have them.
Sophie accepted the reward reluctantly.
After this incident, Sophie finally understood what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.
But now that things have come to this, she can only bite the bullet and continue with the plot.
The most important thing right now is to get the 400 points tomorrow.
As for this bond mission, if you can accomplish it, then it’s accomplished. If you can’t, then forget it!
Princess Liya, I'll be back soon~
Sophie couldn't help but recall the little face of Liya with bruised nose and swollen eyes in her dream, and a smile appeared on her pretty face again.
Si Jin turned around and leaned on the balcony.
He played with the silver ring on his index finger, his narrow eyes casually falling on the woman not far away who had her back to him and her shoulders shaking constantly.
It was obvious that Jiang Ying was deliberately using Meng Ru to provoke him just now.
What is her purpose in doing this?
Si Jin's eyes darkened.
…
Today's lunch was originally hosted by the Si family to welcome Si Jin.
As an old friend, Xi Mengru was also invited.
She was late because she missed the earlier bus.
Sophie turned her head and saw the heroine coming in from the door. She was so frightened that she almost choked to death on the snowflake crisps in her mouth and died on the spot.
Xi Mengru followed the instructions and walked into the banquet hall.
She was still wearing a light-colored dress, and her slightly simple attire seemed somewhat out of place with the elegant guests around her.
While everyone was talking, Sophie noticed the stain seeping from the back of her skirt.
Is something going on with the heroine?
Sophie's eyes rolled and she came up with an idea.
She picked up the wine glass from the waiter's tray and walked straight towards the hostess.
The love triangle between Jiang Ying, Xi Mengru and Jiang Yichen has been widely circulated among the socialite circle.
Everyone was attracted by Sophie's behavior, and they stopped to watch with the mentality of watching a good show.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Sophie cried out "Ouch!" and the champagne in her hand spilled out of her glass and landed precisely on the hem of Xi Mengru's skirt.
The wine stains formed flower patterns on her cotton and linen dress.
Oh, what poor acting.
There were faint laughters around, and everyone naturally regarded Sophie's behavior as a deliberate humiliation.
Xi Mengru is no exception.
Her face flushed red, and she wished she could escape from this predicament right then and there.
Sophie saw her intention and raised her hand to pull the heroine back to her side.
Under Xi Mengru's astonished gaze, Sophie swiftly took off her shawl. She ignored the heroine's struggle and domineeringly wrapped it around her skirt.
Done in one go.
"Yingying, you..."
The sudden change in front of her made Xi Mengru so stunned that she was speechless.
This is a shawl designed by Vita, Jiang Ying's favorite designer, and it is hard to come by at a high price.
How could it be so easy...
"Don't get me wrong, I accidentally stained your skirt, so I should compensate you. Come on, I'll go with you to the bathroom to change. I happen to have a spare in the car."
Without giving her a chance to think, Sophie took her hand and led her out of the noisy environment.
[Ding! The host successfully resolved the embarrassing crisis for the heroine. Kindness value +20, Innocence value +20, Favorability +5.]
Outside the bathroom, after delivering the clothes, Sophie secretly praised herself for her cleverness.
"Yingying, thank you."
Xi Mengru, who came out of the bathroom, already understood Sophie's good intentions, and a hint of gratitude flashed in her eyes.
"Hmph, don't think that just because I helped you, we are friends."
Sophie turned her face away proudly and walked out of the hotel without looking back.
Si Jin, who followed the two of them, saw Sophie holding her head high and walking away without recognizing anyone.
"Mengru, are you okay?"
He stepped forward to check and asked in a deep voice.
Xi Mengru withdrew her gaze from Sophie and shook her head at him.
Thinking of Jiang Ying's seat in the past, Si Jin naturally thought that she was under duress and dared not speak out.
I couldn't help but feel angry.
"Don't be afraid, Mengru. Just speak up. If Jiang Ying dares to bully you, I will definitely pay you back double."
The man's cold words didn't sound like a joke, so Xi Mengru immediately explained.
"Si Jin, you misunderstood. Yingying really didn't bully me. She came to help me."
"Help you?"
Si Jin seemed to have heard something incredible, and his voice grew colder.
"Mengru, you and I both know exactly what kind of person Jiang Ying is. You don't have to speak for her."
"Si Jin, you really misunderstood Yingying!"
No matter how Xi Mengru explained, Si Jin remained indifferent.
…
"Ah!"
Sophie, who had just walked out of the hotel door, sneezed loudly and rubbed the itchy tip of her nose with her index finger.
Well, it's not good to do too much bad things.
Look, there is always someone secretly saying bad things about her behind her back, and she doesn’t know who it is.
Sophie sighed and hailed a taxi.
She didn't have time to delay any longer, as what she was about to do was a matter of life and death!
On the street, at Wang Xiaoer’s barbecue stall.
Sophie held grilled sausages in her left hand and grilled squid in her right hand.
She ate with relish, not caring at all about other people's gazes.
When the driver drove her and Jiang's mother past here before, she was fascinated by the fragrance.
The desserts at the banquet could barely serve as appetizers, so she rushed over by car as soon as she had time.
\"Ugh, so full~\"
The plate was piled high with diabolo sticks, and Sophie burped contentedly.
She has successfully grasped the essence of being a foodie!
"Boss, pay the bill!"
Sophie stood up and left her seat. She did not see Jiang Yichen's complicated face in the luxury car on the street.
Their engagement ceremony is tomorrow, and not only does this woman not stay home to prepare properly, she even has the mood to eat skewers here alone?
"Mr. Jiang, Miss Jiang..."
Assistant Zhang looked at Jiang Yichen's slightly serious expression hesitantly.
"Why bother with her? Let's go see Aju."
…
After leaving the barbecue stall, Sophie went to comfort the maid who had been scolded and cried by Jiang Ying according to the plot.
Because she broke her favorite bracelet, she scolded the maid for half an hour, which left a deep shadow on the maid's young heart.
To make up for this fear, Sophie generously gave Jiang Ying some jewelry from her private collection.
Anyway, this thing can only be looked at and not eaten. You can’t bring it with you when you are born and you can’t take it with you when you die.
Just consider it as a way to accumulate some virtue for the bad things the original owner did before.
[Ding! Successfully soothed the maid's wounded heart, Kindness +15, Innocence +15.]
Sophie walked back to the room happily, savoring the wonderful reminder sound.
"Xiao Ai, pull up today's data sheet."
【Yes, Master.】
