"She'd be that kind-hearted?"
As Ye Meiqi and Xiao Ruoyu entered the office, Lan Shuoshuo's voice was filled with doubt.
An Nuan quickly pulled Shuoshuo's arm. "Don't let your emotions get the better of you. We'll find out if it's true once we check."
"Check? How are we supposed to check? I'm your agent; if I don't even know, where will *you* get answers?"
Shuoshuo was exasperated. She truly wanted to pry open An Nuan's head and see what was going on in there. Her boyfriend had been stolen, yet she could still calmly seize an opportunity. Should she be called proactive and ambitious, or someone who endures humiliation and bears heavy burdens, or, more directly, was her brain just fried?
"Shuoshuo, I don't have the luxury of fighting back."
Shuoshuo was well aware of An Nuan's family situation.
Shuoshuo fell silent upon hearing An Nuan's words.
"Oh, Nuan Nuan, don't worry. No matter how difficult it gets, I'll be by your side."
Shuoshuo patted An Nuan's shoulder and leaned her forehead against hers. An Nuan smiled, raising a hand to rub Shuoshuo's shoulder. "Shuoshuo, I know you have my best interests at heart, and I've never doubted our friendship. But if there's a chance, I hope you leave this place; there's no need for you to waste your time with me."
"What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Shuoshuo roared in anger. An Nuan looked at her helplessly. "That's not what I meant, but if you stay here with me..."
"Stop talking, I'm not listening." Shuoshuo shook her head impatiently, like a rattle drum.
An Nuan frowned, about to speak when Shuoshuo's phone rang.
"Shuoshuo, your phone is ringing." An Nuan softly reminded her. Shuoshuo picked up her phone and glanced at it, while still glaring fiercely at An Nuan, as if to say, "If you spout any more of that nonsense, I'm through with you!"
Though An Nuan felt helpless, she couldn't help but chuckle at Shuoshuo's antics.
She winked playfully, making an OK gesture under Shuoshuo's threatening gaze. Shuoshuo then gave her an annoyed glare, as if saying, "I'll let it slide this time, but if there's a next time..." Shuoshuo couldn't help but make another threatening gesture, and An Nuan kept nodding in assent.
As the two interacted, a sarcastic voice came through the phone: "Lan Shuoshuo, you really are something. Your boss is blacklisted, yet you can still get an opportunity? I truly underestimated you."
"Spit it out if you have something to say, otherwise buzz off. I don't have time for your empty talk." Shuoshuo didn't have a single kind word, instead acting as if she'd swallowed dynamite. If it weren't for An Nuan, that spineless girl, insisting on this opportunity, Shuoshuo would have refused even if it killed her. Even if they went, what good would it do? As long as those two sluts, Ye Meiqi and Xiao Ruoyu, were around, An Nuan could forget about having an easy life. Once this opportunity was gone, where would the next one be? Moreover, she hardly believed that Ye Meiqi, that little slut who stole An Nuan's man, would be so kind-hearted. She probably wished she could strangle An Nuan.
"Hmph, Lan Shuoshuo, let's see how long you can remain so arrogant!" The woman snorted coldly, then sneered, "Downstairs lobby, in five minutes. Come or don't, I don't care!"
With that, only the dial tone remained on the phone.
Shuoshuo stared at her phone and snorted disdainfully. "What are you so arrogant about? In front of your own boss, *you're* the real dog!"
"Alright, don't pay her any mind. We only have five minutes!" An Nuan pulled Shuoshuo's arm, urgently heading downstairs.
Shuoshuo walked a few steps, then suddenly pulled An Nuan back. Standing in front of Ye Meiqi's office door, she deliberately raised her voice: "Nuan Nuan, even though this scumbag isn't *outrageously* scummy – at least he gave you a chance – let me tell you, if you ever get involved with him again, I'll break your legs! I told you ages ago that I personally saw him having dinner with our company's top star, and their relationship was... intimate, but you refused to believe me. Now look what happened, you were cheated on, and you deserve it! Honestly, why don't you ever wise up?"
As she spoke, Shuoshuo covered her mouth, stifling a laugh.
An Nuan stomped her foot, a wry smile on her face, and whispered, "Alright, let's go quickly!"
Meanwhile, inside the office, the already tense atmosphere between the two occupants grew even more strained. Ye Meiqi glared coldly at a trembling, internally seething Xiao Ruoyu, finally unable to control her fury. "Xiao Ruoyu, just how many more of your romantic escapades have you been hiding from me?! Hm?"
