  Ding—


  Once the elevator arrived, Lin Nuan walked in and closed the door—she didn’t glance at Gu Hanyan even once the entire time.

  Lin Nuan’s words made Gu Hanyan think of what Wen Moshen told her that day…


  “I choose to forgive you because these past four years you have been the only one still waiting for me at where we originally stood. The others and all those other matters have already changed, you’re the only piece of the past I can hold onto.”


  Actually, the only one who had truly waited for him unchangingly was probably Lin Nuan.

  Gu Hanyan’s fists clenched tighter. Based on Lin Nuan’s personality, since she didn’t tell Wen Moshen at that moment, she would never mention it to him again in the future, so Gu Hanyan breathed a sigh of relief.

  …


  When Lin Nuan exited the wards building, she saw Bai Xiaonian arguing heatedly with someone in the middle of the crowd.

  Bai Xiaonian’s Audi A4 and a flashing red Porsche 911 had crashed together, the Audi A4’s car door flung far away.

  “Do you know how expensive it to replace my car’s headlight and to repaint it? You only drive an Audi A4, do you think you can afford to compensate me? Seeing that you’re so pretty, I thought I’d let it go if you just submit to me and be soft, how dare you still talk back to me? I’m telling you… My older brother is a lawyer! You better believe that I’ll make sure you pay for it until you’re broke!”


  A tall teenager wearing a leather jacket full of rivets was pointing at the slightly shorter Bai Xiaonian with his index finger, shouting at her in an extremely arrogant manner. The three companions beside him were all laughing at her.

  In her whole life, what Bai Xiaonian hated the most was having someone point their finger at her, so she angrily slapped the teenager’s hand away and spoke fiercely, “I earned the money myself for the Audi A4 I’m driving, unlike you who spends your parents’ money on sports cars, then throw the burden to your brother when you create trouble. How about you reflect on what you are? Our country’s burden, the people’s scourge!”


  “What what? Scourge?!”


  Even though the teen didn’t know what the word “scourge” meant, but he felt that as long as it came from Bai Xiaonian’s mouth it couldn’t have been a good word, so he raised his fists in a fighting stance and tried to lunge at Bai Xiaonian, only to be pulled back by his friends.

  “Tianci! Tianci! Forget it… Why are you bothering so much with a woman?

  Bai Xiaonian laughed once she heard the teen’s name, saying sarcastically, “Tianci? Say, what kind of sin did your parents commit, you are literally theirTianci?

  ?scourge!”


  “Sh*t, you stupid woman!”


  The teenager called Tianci felt his anger rising again and his friend had to hug him by the waist, barely pulling the boy back as he cried out, “Have you forgotten what your dad said about sending you overseas if you get into any more trouble? Stop making trouble!”


  Lin Nuan had already walked to the side of both cars and she could tell from the traces of the tires that Bai Xiaonian’s car was parked right in the lot before it was hit so hard that it slanted. Lin Nuan took out her phone from her bag and took photos, her gaze sweeping across the Porsche car and spotting the three Haicheng Middle School uniforms in the backseat.

  “Hey! What pictures are you taking!” the teen’s partners shouted at Lin Nuan.

  Lin Nuan ignored them and put away her phone as she walked to Bai Xiaonian’s side and asked, “Have you called the police?”


  She admitted that she asked Bai Xiaonian the question on purpose because she heard the teen’s partners telling him to avoid getting into trouble…


  “Not yet…” Bai Xiaonian was so furious her chest was heaving greatly.

  “Call the police.” Lin Nuan spoke with a neutral voice. “The police will come and settle this. I’ve already taken the photos.”


  The teen called Tianci’s originally fair face paled even further. He didn’t even have a driver’s license. It would be a small matter if the police came, but if they let his father know that he secretly drove the car out, there was no guarantee that he wouldn’t be sent overseas.
