Anna, who had just finished a shower, was wearing a loose bathrobe, with her long, wet hair casually draped over her shoulders. As she was drying her hair, she suddenly heard the crisp ringtone of her cell phone beside her.

Anna put down the towel in her hand and walked quickly to her phone. The screen showed an incoming call from her best friend Xu Jinglei. She gently swiped the answer button and put the phone to her ear. Before she could say anything, she heard Xu Jinglei's anxious voice coming from the receiver.

"Anna, you're finally back! I was so worried about you. I heard you broke up with that guy Wang Xiyi? Humph, he's such a complete scumbag! He actually got another woman pregnant behind your back, and secretly got married without telling you. He's such a despicable guy! It's okay, it's not too much. Let's not be sad for that kind of man! Come out with me tonight, I'll take you to meet some super handsome guys! I guarantee you'll forget that scumbag!"

Anna continued to wipe her hair with her other hand and replied softly, "Jinglei, you know my personality. I really don't like going to noisy places like that."

However, Xu Jinglei didn't intend to give up. She raised her voice and said, "Oh, no! You have to listen to me this time! Where are you living now? I'll drive over to pick you up. No matter what, I'm going to take you out today to have some fun and relax. And I'm going to introduce you to a guy who's a hundred, a thousand times more handsome than Wang Xiyi, so he can completely disappear from your mind!"

Faced with Xu Jinglei's enthusiastic and resolute attitude, Anna felt a little helpless, but it was difficult to refuse her friend's kindness, so she sighed and replied, "Okay, okay, I can't resist you. I live in No. 8, Kaide Maolin Mansion."

Xu Jinglei on the other end of the phone couldn't help but exclaim after hearing the address: "Wow! Sister, have you made a fortune? Could it be that this house is the breakup fee that scumbag Wang Xiyi gave you?"

Ana was speechless for a moment, rolled her eyes and explained, "What are you thinking? This is the house I bought with the money I earned through my own hard work and investment. It almost used up all my savings!"

Xu Jinglei said happily, "That's great! My dear sister, wait, I'll be right there to pick you up!" Then she hung up. Meanwhile, Anna gracefully opened her wardrobe and carefully selected an apricot-colored embroidered dress in a distinctly neo-Chinese style. The dress's color was soft and warm, reminiscent of the delicate apricot blossoms blooming in spring; the exquisite embroidery was lifelike, giving it a sense of movement.

Anna then moved to her dressing table, picked up a delicate hairpin, and gently gathered her cascading hair into an elegant bun. She then turned and retrieved a vibrant red shawl from the closet, carefully draping it over her. Like a blazing flame, the shawl instantly illuminated her entire outfit, adding a touch of charm and flair. Finally, Anna picked up a small, exquisite Princess Diana bag, carefully checked to see if she had left anything behind, gently closed the door, and walked towards the front door with light steps.

However, before she reached the door, the cell phone in Anna's hand rang again, and Xu Jinglei's anxious voice was heard: "Sister, the security here won't let me in!" Hearing this, Anna stopped and responded with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, I have seen you..." As she said that, she raised her hand and waved to the distance to indicate her location, and then quickened her pace towards Xu Jinglei.

After a while, the two finally met face to face. When Xu Jinglei's eyes fell on Anna, she couldn't help but light up and exclaimed sincerely, "Wow, sister, you look absolutely stunning today! You used to be a cold goddess, but now you look like a fairy who has come down to earth!" Hearing this, Anna smiled slightly, reached out and gently tapped Xu Jinglei's forehead, and said coquettishly, "Stop talking nonsense, let's get going..."

After saying that, Xu Jinglei quickly fastened her seat belt, started her cool Ferrari sports car, and drove all the way to the MUSE bar at lightning speed with the roar of the engine.

Entering the bar, Jinglei and Anna headed for the private room where the party was held. Located on the second floor, it overlooked the entire bar and was usually reserved only for the bar's super VIPs. Upon seeing Jinglei approach, several wealthy young men and daughters hurriedly greeted her, "Jinglei, why are you so late today?"

Jinglei pulled Anna aside and introduced her, "This is my best friend, a renowned ballet dancer who lives at the Kaide Maolin Mansion." Upon learning Anna's address, everyone was unfazed and greeted her warmly, with Anna nodding politely. Jinglei's words were meant to prevent anyone from bullying her friend without her knowledge. Because of the large crowd, Anna didn't notice Zheng Qi in the corner, and even if she had, she wouldn't have been able to recall him.

Only Zheng Qi lamented the insignificance of the world, the fate of it all. Just as he was about to pick up his glass and go find Jinglei and the others, Jinglei had already dragged Anna over to Zheng Qi's side and said, "Qi Shuai, please look after my best friend. This is her first time in a bar, and I'm afraid I'll drink too much and won't have time to care for her. At this point, I only trust Qi Shuai's character..."

Zheng Qi smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll devour your little sisters?" Jinglei smiled and pulled Anna to sit down, saying, "That's great! It won't keep my sisters pining for that unfaithful man... I'll take care of some things for a while. Anna, you stay here. With Qi Shuai here, no one will be inconsiderate!" With that, she turned and left. Jinglei had done this on purpose. Zheng Qi was well-liked and had a good character. Most importantly, he was good at pleasing women, and Anna must have been in a bad mood because of Wang Xiyi. She hoped they wouldn't let her efforts go to waste...
