If she had told Xiao Ruoyu about this back then, she might have been exploited by him already.
She hadn't seen his true colors before; now, she could only be glad that she hadn't poured her heart out to him with everything she had. It wasn't that she had deliberately tried to hide it; rather, she hadn't even dared to take the item out to look at it herself. She was afraid she would complain that her father left too soon, afraid she would uncontrollably miss him.
She reached out to snatch back the brocade box, but Ye Meiqi quickly dodged.
"Your father's coming-of-age gift, huh? That’s quite a good excuse, but... with you looking like such a pauper, could your family really afford this?"
"I may be impoverished now, but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t rich before. You may be rich now, but that doesn’t mean you』ll be rich your whole life."
Life has its ups and downs; fortunes can reverse in thirty years. Who knows what we』ll all be like in a few years?
"Give me back the gem."
An Nuan emphasized again, but Ye Meiqi merely raised an eyebrow, completely unmoved.
"It’s not impossible to give it back to you. Kneel down and kowtow to me, admit you were wrong. Beg me to spare you."
"Ye Meiqi, don’t go too far!"
An Nuan couldn't help but grind her teeth. Ye Meiqi smirked derisively. "You stole my belongings, then claimed they were your father's relic, and now you’re righteously refusing to apologize. Lu An Nuan, you've got some nerve! Do you really think I, Ye Meiqi, am a pushover? My family’s possessions are not something you can just take whenever you please!"
"Your things?" An Nuan stared at her in astonishment, hearing Ye Meiqi’s words utterly devoid of guilt. Could this person get any more shameless? It was clearly Lu An Nuan’s, when did it become Ye Meiqi’s? This person was simply beyond shameless.
"Ye Meiqi, I』ll say it one more time: give me back what’s mine!"
Rage. Extreme rage swelled within her. Yet, she was powerless. She could only roar aloud, hoping Ye Meiqi would let go. But Ye Meiqi was accustomed to being arrogant, and now Lu An Nuan was like an ant held in someone’s palm, to be crushed at any moment. Ye Meiqi could do whatever she pleased to her—who told Lu An Nuan she was signed with Xinghui? Who told her she was so powerless?!
If Ye Meiqi were to secretly keep this gem today, Lu An Nuan would even go as far as to scheme against Xinghui's major shareholder – she wouldn't let Ye Meiqi get away with it!
"Why should I give it back to you? Now, let me tell you: if you want to leave, then leave your suitcase and get out. But if you don't, I』ll call the police right now and report you for breaking and entering and theft. With Ruoyu testifying, you won’t just be yelling in my face; you』ll go straight to jail!"
As Ye Meiqi’s words fell, An Nuan gnashed her teeth.
"Ye Meiqi!"
She roared in anger, looking at Xiao Ruoyu, who stood silently to the side, his eyes fixed entirely on Ye Meiqi. An Nuan found it utterly absurd. In the end, she, Lu An Nuan, couldn’t even protect the relic her father had given her. Lu An Nuan, you good-for-nothing!
She fiercely condemned herself internally, then suddenly lunged forward, biting down hard on Ye Meiqi’s wrist.
Ye Meiqi cried out in pain, a sharp "Ah—" escaping her lips. She tried to forcefully shake An Nuan off. In the struggle, the brocade box in her hand dropped to the floor, and the gem tumbled out. An Nuan immediately let go and lunged to pick it up, but Ye Meiqi was just as quick, stomping her foot, clad in house slippers, directly onto An Nuan’s hand.
"Lu An Nuan, you dare to bite me?! Just you wait, I’m going to scratch your face to shreds today!"
Ye Meiqi roared in fury, one hand reaching out to grab An Nuan's hair, when suddenly, a deep, cold voice commanded, "Stop."
