Chu Qiao slowly returned to her room, her rain-soaked clothes clinging to her body, as if she could feel the weight of every drop. She took a deep breath, a flicker of helplessness in her eyes, and began to change her soaked clothes. As each piece of clothing slipped from her hands, it seemed to wash away some of the fatigue within her.

After she changed into her clean, neat clothes, she instantly brightened. She walked to the mirror, tilted her head slightly, and carefully adjusted her appearance. Her hair was meticulously combed, and her eyes revealed a sense of determination and confidence. Just then, a servant knocked gently on the door and walked in cautiously. She stood tall and straight, her steps steady, her face a respectful yet timid expression. She said respectfully, "Young lady, it's time for dinner. The master and mistress are waiting for you." With that, she stood there nervously, trembling with fear for Chu Qiao's response, afraid that she had done something wrong and angered this young lady who had once made them so cautious and fearful.

Chu Qiao looked at the servants, and a strange feeling welled up in her. She realized that perhaps she had been too strong in the past, which was why everyone around her was so afraid. Now, she decided to change herself and no longer let this atmosphere permeate the entire family. She secretly vowed to herself, "It seems that I really need to improve my image. I can't let everyone be so afraid of me anymore." At this thought, she smiled slightly, put down the burden in her heart, and turned to walk slowly downstairs with the servants, heading towards the dining room, preparing for the upcoming dinner.

She knew that what she was about to face was not only a dinner, but also a test of her role-playing ability. She had to act like the pampered Chu Qiaoqiao, while also handling the complicated relationship between her and Chu Hanhan.

She took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and then slowly walked down the stairs. In the living room, Chu Xiong and Liu Xiaoli were already sitting at the dining table, waiting for her arrival. Chu Xiong was a dignified middle-aged man, his eyes revealing unquestionable authority, but when he saw Chu Qiao, his stern eyes immediately softened.

"Qiao Qiao, you're here." Chu Xiong's voice was filled with a hint of fondness. "How was your day?"

Chu Qiao smiled and replied, "Father, I'm having a great day today. Thank you for your concern."

Liu Xiaoli also looked at Chu Qiao tenderly, her eyes full of maternal love: "Qiao Qiao, come and sit down, we have been waiting for you for a long time."

Chu Qiao walked over to the table and sat down at the seat prepared for her. She noticed that Chu Hanhan's seat was empty, and she couldn't help but feel a little complicated. She knew how low Chu Hanhan's status in the Chu family was, as the daughter of a servant. She didn't even have the right to eat dinner with the family.

Dinner went smoothly, like a harmonious melody playing slowly through the dining room. Chu Qiao, like a lively little deer, endeavored to be as lively and adorable as she could be. She was like a shining star, radiating joy to every corner. She enthusiastically shared some amusing memories with her parents. Those stories seemed to have a magical power, gradually bringing a smile to Chu Xiong's serious face. Liu Xiaoli was even more enchanted, her laughter lingering in the room for a long time.

However, amidst this joyful atmosphere, Chu Qiao still felt a lingering sense of unease. She knew she had an important mission: to find a practical way to improve Chu Hanhan's difficult situation, as this was also the key to her mission to capture the male protagonist.

After dinner, Chu Qiao seemed to be suddenly pushed by an invisible force. She cleverly found an excuse and left the table like a light butterfly. She had only one firm thought in her mind, which was to find Chu Hanhan and help her.

In the dim basement, Chu Qiao finally found Chu Hanhan. She saw her curled up alone in a dark corner, a few pitiful leftovers before her, as if narrating the injustice and suffering she had endured. Chu Qiao's heart suddenly surged with sympathy, like a surging tide. She took gentle steps, as if afraid to disturb the fragile soul before her. She slowly walked to Chu Hanhan's side and whispered, "Chu Hanhan, you don't have to live like this anymore. You deserve better. Don't let this pain torment you anymore."

Chu Hanhan slowly raised her head. Her eyes, once dull and lifeless, now shone like stars, a glint of unnoticeable surprise and a deep, abyssal distrust. She frowned slightly, a look of doubt rippling across her face. Her eyes stared intently at Chu Qiao, as if trying to penetrate her exterior to the secrets hidden deep within. Her heart was beating wildly, doubting the truthfulness of every word she uttered.

Chu Qiao took a deep breath, and that breath seemed to carry a firm strength, slowly filling her chest. The sincerity in her eyes was like bright sunlight piercing through the clouds, revealing itself to Chu Hanhan without reservation. She spoke again solemnly, "No, I am absolutely serious. From this moment on, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side, your strongest support, and do my best to help you overcome the current difficulties and help you regain your dignity and treatment. I swear, I will never let you suffer any harm again. Believe me, I will do it."

Chu Qiao knew full well that the woman named Chu Qiaoqiao was utterly awful to her sister, constantly beating her without mercy. Meanwhile, Chu Hanhan's heart burned like a raging fire, harboring an intense desire for revenge. As if driven by an invisible force, she refused to endure all the suffering in silence. The resentment within her heart surged like magma within her chest.

Because of this, she always behaved with utmost respect towards Chu Qiaoqiao, being careful with every move and every word, fearing that she would offend the other party with the slightest mistake, just to hold on to that glimmer of hope of escaping from this place filled with pain and torture.

That sudden chance encounter was like a flash of lightning that pierced the darkness, and Chu Qiao brought her into that magnificent banquet. At that moment, the whole world seemed to focus on them, with bright lights, figures intertwined, and a clamor of noise rising and falling.

It was this unforgettable experience that made her realize that if she wanted to escape successfully, she would need the help of a wealthy and powerful figure. So, she resorted to all sorts of tactics, desperately trying to attract the attention of the male protagonist, Bo Zhengting. She knew Chu Qiao was deeply in love with Bo Zhengting, but he ignored her and showed no regard for her. Yet, she secretly vowed to take everything Chu Qiao had and make her feel the same way about losing everything.

From that moment on, a series of magnificent stories, like a violent storm, officially opened the mysterious and shocking curtain. All kinds of unexpected plots and severe challenges came one after another like a tide. The fate of Chu Hanhan and Chu Qiao, like two stars, was about to undergo earth-shaking changes in this complex and unpredictable world. No one could predict where the future would lead...

After Chu Qiao recalled all this, the most urgent thing for her was to let the heroine Chu Hanhan let go of her hatred for herself and her family in order to save everything, so she went to the basement to talk to Chu Hanhan about this.

Chu Hanhan was slightly stunned, the hesitation in her eyes becoming more and more obvious. She lowered her head, as if thinking about something. After a moment, she slowly raised her head, her eyes glittering with a complex light: "But if you leave the Chu family in the future, and I am still here, what can you do?"

Chu Qiao looked at Chu Hanhan's slightly skeptical eyes and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. She knew that it would not be easy to make Chu Hanhan trust her completely, but she would never give up easily.

"I will use my actions to prove that I truly want to help you and reunite our family," Chu Qiao said solemnly. "From now on, I will visit you every day, chat with you, and help you solve some of the small problems in life. I believe that as long as we understand and support each other, we will be able to break down the barriers between us."

Chu Hanhan was silent for a while, then nodded gently: "Okay, I'm willing to give you a chance. But if you lie to me..."

Chu Qiao quickly interrupted her, "I won't lie to you. I swear! We are sisters. No matter what happens, I will stand by you. I know what I did before, and although I can't get you to forgive me right away, I will make amends. Don't stay in the basement anymore. I'll have Father prepare a room for you."

Seeing Chu Qiaoqiao's seriousness, Chu Hanhan agreed. Chu Qiao quickly hugged Chu Hanhan in her arms.
