Ruan Qian'an pretended to be heartbroken and said, "Huo Jingmo is really good to you. I'm so envious. Why isn't Huo Jingmo like that to me? I hate it so much. Why!"

As if she were getting into an act, she wiped away non-existent tears. "I am Huo Jingmo's fiancée. You are a mistress in front of me! You were before, and you are now!"

Zheng Qing scoffed and calmly said, "The one who isn't loved is the mistress."

Ruan Qian'an couldn't help but laugh when she heard this outrageous statement.

Zheng Qing asked angrily, "What are you laughing at!"

Ruan Qian'an decided to play dumb and blinked innocently, asking, "Huh? What did you just say? I was just feeling sad."

Zheng Qing snorted and focused on driving.

Ruan Qian'an thought that a simple phone call could solve the problem, so she wondered why this woman insisted on bringing her along.

When Ruan Qian'an met Ruan Qingyu at the destination, he understood everything.

Ran Zhi was sitting next to Ruan Qingyu. In a corner where no one could see her, Ran Zhi winked at Ruan Qian'an.

Then he pointed to his phone, indicating that she should look at it.

Ruan Qian'an nodded, picked up her phone, and saw the message Ran Zhi had sent her. The message was roughly about Ruan Qingyu and Zheng Qing teaming up and doing something together. Ran Zhi then launched into a tirade against Ruan Qingyu, saying that she was very stubborn and wouldn't tell her what she was up to, which almost aroused her suspicion.

Ruan Qian'an replied that it was alright, she would handle it as she saw fit, there was no rush.

So these two got together. Ruan Qingyu saw Ruan Qian'an and stepped forward, saying, "Sister, what a coincidence to meet you here."

Ruan Qian'an had no intention of playing along with her: "Yes, what a coincidence, how unlucky."

Ruan Qingyu said with a hurt expression, "Sister, what did I do to offend you that made you say that?"

The shop assistant watched all this, standing nervously to the side. She was just a working person, and she hoped that she wouldn't be implicated!

To Ruan Qian'an's surprise, things passed by peacefully. The shop assistant also didn't expect that she would try to show off her high emotional intelligence.

The fact that these two people didn't cause her any trouble only made her more confused. Thinking that there was no point in hanging out with them, Ruan Qian'an made up an excuse to leave.

But he was stopped; he really hadn't been holding back.

Zheng Qing said, "Huo Jingmo just said there's a banquet for you to attend tonight."

Ruan Qian'an asked, "Why didn't he tell me, but instead told you?"

Zheng Qing: "Oh, he asked me to tell you that he wants me to pick out some nice clothes for you. Or maybe it's because he doesn't want to contact you. What do you think, little sister?"

Ruan Qian'an replied indifferently, "Whatever."

The three of them went first. Zheng Qing had chosen something gorgeous and extremely elaborate for her, so they went ahead of time.

This was just a party; everyone else was dressed casually, but Ruan Qian'an was wearing a glamorous formal dress.

She knew everyone here; they were all from this circle, and some she was already quite familiar with.

However, because of his own downfall, he chose to stay away, but more often than not, people kicked him when he was down.

Ruan Qian'an pushed open the door to the private room and walked in. At first, people's eyes were full of amazement, but then they turned into disdain and contempt.

One of them said sarcastically, "These people are really something else. It's just a dinner party, and someone actually dresses like this to come here. They're really vain. I'm just being blunt, so don't take offense."

When Ruan Qian'an arrived here, she noticed something was wrong. Why didn't she change it? She was just too lazy to do it; it was too much trouble.

She had anticipated these people's true colors, so she didn't care anymore.

They were all a bunch of profit-driven, snobbish people. She seemed not to hear the man's sarcasm and found a corner to sit down.

After looking around and not finding Huo Jingmo, she frowned and tried to send him a message, only to realize that she no longer had his contact information.

She tried dialing a number she hadn't called in a long time, but it was busy.

She seemed to have been blocked, and Ruan Qian'an was wondering why Huo Jingmo had blocked her.

Zheng Qing leaned closer and said insincerely, "I'm so sorry, I don't know why I suddenly became like this, causing you to be laughed at. I'm really sorry, how about I punish myself with a drink?"

After saying that, he drank a cup himself.

Ruan Qian'an leaned back on the sofa and said lazily, "Really? If you want to apologize, kowtow to me. I'll consider whether to accept it or not."

Zheng Qing didn't expect that this person wouldn't even bother to pretend to be friendly with her in public.

Some people around her were immediately indignant at Ruan Qian'an's arrogance.

She said indignantly, "What's wrong with you? Sister Zheng Qing is speaking up for you, and this is your attitude."

Ruan Qian'an: "What I do is none of your business."

Enraged, the man stood up and stormed up to Ruan Qian'an, saying fiercely, "You've been pretending to be a rich young lady for over ten years, and now you've been found out? Your true colors have been revealed? You can't keep up the act anymore?"

"You still think you're that young lady from the Ruan family? Nobody's protecting you now. Apologize to me right now, or I'll kill you."

Ruan Qian'an didn't even flinch: "Oh dear, I'm so scared!"

Boy: "You...you, I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" The boy wanted to step forward and hit Ruan Qian'an.

These people were happy to see Ruan Qian'an make a fool of himself and did nothing to stop him; they were all watching the show with schadenfreude.

Only Ruan Qingyu was a little worried that if the commotion got too big, Huo Jingmo would find out something. She still remembered how Huo Jingmo had thrown a tantrum at the Ruan family before, so she quickly spoke up to stop him: "Brother Zhao, let it go. Look at her, she's not worth you hitting her."

The boy heard Ruan Qingyu say, "I'll let you go for Qingyu's sake."

Ruan Qian'an scoffed, "He's just too afraid to lay a hand on her."

How did Ruan Qingyu help her out of that predicament today? Has she become a better person?

Ruan Qingyu brought over a wine glass and handed it to Ruan Qian'an. Ruan Qian'an stared at her for a while, then took it and said, "Thanks."

Ruan Qingyu thought to herself, "No need to thank me, sister. After all, some things need to be done discreetly."

Ran Zhi was also at the gathering, but she didn't sit too close to Ruan Qian'an. Now everyone knew that she and Ruan Qian'an had broken up.

However, she still didn't know what Zheng Qing and Ruan Qingyu were planning to do.

In other words, she has not yet gained Ruan Qingyu's complete trust.

Ran Zhi was called out by Ruan Qingyu and left early, and even Zheng Qing left while Ruan Qian'an wasn't paying attention.

Only a few young masters remained.

Suddenly, Ruan Qian'an smelled a very pleasant incense spreading in the private room.

I don't know why Ruan Qian'an's mind became muddled and her body gradually became hot.

These young men exchanged glances and immediately understood each other.

They all looked at Ruan Qian'an with lecherous expressions.

Led by the man surnamed Zhao, he moved closer and closer to where Ruan Qian'an was sitting.

The men grew increasingly excited, anticipating what would happen next.

Just as the boy surnamed Zhao was about to touch Ruan Qian'an, what they expected didn't happen. Instead, Ruan Qian'an kicked the boy away.

He was kicked and fell onto the table, the table breaking and the things falling off it making a loud noise.

One person exclaimed in shock, "Holy crap!"

They looked at Ruan Qian'an as delicate and frail, while the boys were tall and burly. Compared to them, Ruan Qian'an seemed too insignificant.

All I could see was Ruan Qian'an lounging on the sofa, looking as if she hadn't exerted much effort.

"A monster...a monster."

Ruan Qian'an: "That's really rude of you to call someone a monster."

Ruan Qian'an stood up, her steps unsteady, and walked towards the door.

The boy said, "Don't let her intimidate you. Look at her. I was just accidentally kicked down. Let's all attack her together!"

The others realized: "Right, look at her thin arms and legs, she really could be a monster. We can't let this duck that's almost in our mouths get away."

Just in case, the group stepped forward together to try and stop Ruan Qian'an.

Ruan Qian'an clicked his tongue, and in the blink of an eye, these people were overwhelmed by Ruan Qian'an's aura and passed out.

Ruan Qian'an came out of the room and saw Zheng Qing standing guard outside.

Ruan Qian'an slapped him across the face and called him an idiot.

Zheng Qing tried to resist, but Ruan Qian'an grabbed her wrist. Zheng Qing asked, "You didn't drink that glass of wine?"

"liquor?"

She remembered the glass of wine Ruan Qingyu had handed her, but she was certain that the wine wasn't drugged; it only contained a tiny bit of something to make her head spin.

Ruan Qian'an was certain it was the incense; she only smelled it when Zheng Qing went out.

"Zheng Qing, you're really ruthless. Not only do you want to ruin my reputation, but you also want to use it to threaten those young masters? You even want to frame Ruan Qingyu for this. You're quite the player."

Ruan Qian'an patted her cheek and said, "You seem to have failed, you idiot."

Zheng Qing sneered, "So what? You still fell for it. Look at yourself now, all alluring and slutty, you're just a whore. I'm doing this for your own good, sister." Zheng Qing tried to shake off her hand and push her back into the room. She didn't know that the young men inside had all fainted, and she couldn't shake them off no matter how hard she tried.

Zheng Qing shouted sternly, "Let me go!"

Ruan Qian'an smiled innocently and said, "Okay." Then she knocked Zheng Qing unconscious with a karate chop and threw her back into the room.

Ruan Qian'an took a few photos of the scattered people lying on the ground and sent the photos to them.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth – this has always been Ruan Qian'an's style.

She walked out of the room, feeling dizzy but also nonchalant. She forgot to extinguish the incense and didn't see the boys' eyelids twitch as they were about to wake up when she left.
