The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

When Wenwen saw that Mu Ya'an had obtained 500,000 so easily in front of Zhao Quan, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. She had finally found an opportunity to ridicule Mu Ya'an, and she was naturally unwilling to give it up.

"Miss Mu was just mocking me at the door, but now, how is she any different from a paid hostess?"

As soon as Wenwen said that, everyone around her looked at Mu Ya'an as if she were a joke.

Mu Ya'an used to be a socialite in H City, but now she's fallen to this state. Those who were jealous of her back then have gone crazy and started to belittle her.

Mu Ya'an glanced at Wenwen indifferently and said in a low voice.

"What, are you feeling a sense of crisis? Afraid of losing your job?"

Seeing Mu Ya'an's calm retort, Wenwen's expression changed. "You..."

When Cheng Shiman saw that Wenwen was provoked by Mu Ya'an's words, she grabbed Wenwen's hand and stopped her from pointing at Mu Ya'an and cursing.

The Cheng family has always been against her associating with these online celebrities.

But the internet is the future trend, so Cheng Shiman has her own plans.

Seeing that Mu Ya'an was so fearless, Zhao Quan's curiosity about Mu Ya'an grew stronger.

He then took the card reader from Mu Ya'an, entered the password, and said in a low voice.

“Yes, Miss Mu is right. This is my territory. I’m not worried that Miss Mu will run away.”

Mu Ya'an pursed her red lips and quietly watched Zhao Quan enter the password, finally putting her mind at ease.

Regardless, we should get our hands on this 500,000 yuan first.

After all, Zhao Quan was the only person in H City willing to lend her money.

However, after Zhao Quan entered the password again, the payment was not successful.

He saw the words appear on the card reader, his expression darkened, and he looked somewhat puzzled.

He then tried paying with a different card, but it still didn't work.

At this moment, a man in a suit came down from the second floor. He walked to Zhao Quan's side, bent down, and whispered in his ear.

"Young master, the master has frozen your account."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Quan's expression changed, and he immediately got up and went upstairs.

When Mu Ya'an saw Zhao Quan leave, she was slightly startled and had a bad feeling.

Does this mean that we won't get our hands on this 500,000 in the end?

She watched Zhao Quan's retreating figure anxiously as he went upstairs, feeling a slight chill in her palms.

As Cheng Shiman watched Zhao Quan leave, a slight smile appeared on her lips, her eyes filled with mockery. She then spoke softly.

"It seems that Miss Mu will not be able to borrow money this time."

As Cheng Shiman spoke, her gaze drifted toward the banquet hall.

The banquet was divided into two halls: a main hall and a side hall.

Master Zhao was annoyed by the internet celebrities and minor stars that Zhao Quan knew, but Zhao Quan had his own ideas, so all the business luminaries were arranged in the main hall.

The people here are mostly internet celebrities and minor entertainers, as well as some spoiled brats.

Mu Ya'an followed Cheng Shiman's gaze.

At the glittering party, Gong Juncheng was surrounded by several middle-aged entrepreneurs.

His expression was indifferent, revealing no true emotion. He held a wine glass in his hand, leisurely swirling the red wine within. He listened calmly to the conversation of the person beside him.

Throughout the entire process, he only occasionally answered a sentence or two.

Mu Ya'an was taken aback when she saw that Gong Juncheng was also there.

Gong Juncheng...

I won't let her borrow any money.

Mu Ya'an was flustered, and Zhao Quan, who had gone upstairs, followed her downstairs.

His expression was somewhat grave. After glancing at Mu Ya'an, he spoke in a deep voice.

"Miss Mu, you should leave."

When Mu Ya'an heard Zhao Quan say this, her expression changed slightly. Even if Zhao Quan didn't say anything more, she already had the answer in her heart.

This is all because of Gong Juncheng.

She looked up in the direction of Gong Juncheng, her eyes filled with deep disappointment.

This man wanted to personally push her into hell.

Mu Ya'an took a deep breath, calmed herself down, picked up the red wine on the table, drank it all in one gulp, then put down the glass and said in a low voice.

"Young Master Zhao, the banquet isn't over yet. Can I stay here any longer?"

Zhao Quan noticed that Mu Ya'an's gaze was directed at Gong Juncheng, paused for a moment, and then said in a deep voice.

"of course can."

The feud between Gong Juncheng and the Mu family is probably known to everyone in the entire H City.

The reason Mu Ya'an was unable to borrow money this time, and the reason his account was frozen, was also because of Gong Juncheng.

After Gong Juncheng took over everything from the Sheng family, he rationalized all the assets.

Moreover, he is now Gu Moxuan's sworn brother from Beicheng.

Therefore, Gong Juncheng's status in H City is no longer what it used to be.

Zhao Quan watched Mu Ya'an walk towards Gong Juncheng with amusement, a slight smile playing on his lips.

It seems like something interesting is about to happen.

Seeing Mu Ya'an walk towards Gong Juncheng, Cheng Shiman immediately stood up from her seat and followed behind Mu Ya'an, grabbing Mu Ya'an's hand.

"Ya'an, Mr. Gong already has a fiancée. What are you doing? Are you trying to seduce Mr. Gong?"

Cheng Shiman's voice was loud, immediately attracting the attention of the surrounding celebrities.

Everyone's attention immediately turned to Cheng Shiman and Mu Ya'an.

When Mu Ya'an heard Cheng Shiman's words and saw the disdain in the eyes of the people around her, she felt as if something had stabbed her heart.

"Shiman, we used to be friends, right?"

Cheng Shiman paused for a moment after hearing Mu Ya'an's words.

"Just because our Mu family has declined, do you have to slander me like this?"

"I know you've been jealous of me all these years, and now that you've achieved your goal, all I want is a quiet life. Why are you slandering me like this? I haven't even gotten close to Mr. Gong yet, and you're already yelling that I'm trying to seduce him. What are you up to?"

Cheng Shiman was stunned for a moment. She noticed that the way the people around her were looking at her had changed. Then she took a deep breath and said unwillingly.

"Ya'an, I know you're short of money right now. If you just say the word, I can lend you some. The way you were acting just now, it's obvious you're trying to seduce Mr. Gong. But Mr. Gong's status is not something you can get your hands on."

Mu Ya'an nodded, her expression very serious.

"Shiman, thank you for caring about me at this time. I am indeed in dire need of money right now, so please lend me 500,000. Once I get through this difficult period, I will find a way to pay you back as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shiman's expression changed.

Her gaze instinctively turned towards Gong Juncheng's direction, only to see that he merely glanced at them indifferently, completely disregarding them.

"Ya'an..."

Just as Cheng Shiman was about to speak, Mu Ya'an immediately cut her off.

Mu Ya'an handed the card reader directly to Cheng Shiman and said softly.

"Shiman, you said it yourself that you wanted to lend me money. Were you just saying that to smear my reputation?"

When Cheng Shiman heard Mu Ya'an say this, the people around her immediately started talking.

No matter how down on his luck the Mu family is now, Mu Ya'an's character can still be guaranteed.

As for Cheng Shiman, she always hangs out with those obscure internet celebrities and artists, and has probably learned a lot about scheming and backstabbing. In such a public setting, Cheng Shiman's words just now will indeed affect Mu Ya'an's reputation.

For a woman in their circle, the most important things are her reputation and name.

This will determine whether Mu Ya'an can return to the wealthy family and remarry into it in the future.

"Miss Cheng, you and Miss Mu were such good friends back then. Could it be that, as Miss Mu said, you only said those things to tarnish her reputation?"
