Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

Su Ruan, who was calmly observing the crowd, was startled.

Fortunately, her body was used to disguising itself, and she didn't panic.

After a moment of realization, my mind slowly turned toward the source of the sound.

Not far away, a woman was walking quickly toward her.

The woman's silhouette seemed vaguely familiar to her.

Suddenly, related memories were triggered.

Isn't this woman the same best friend who tricked the original owner into beating the old man?

She's been so busy lately that she'd completely forgotten about this person.

"What are you doing here?"

She remembered that this woman was not some rich heiress.

"I should be asking you what you're doing here!"

Xu Nianhe was the original owner's best friend whom she met during one of her leisure activities.

A student at an obscure university in City J.

His sharp eyes swept over Su Ruan's entire outfit.

Then she covered her mouth in surprise.

"Oh my god! You can't, you can't have actually succeeded, can you?"

"Your dress must be worth at least 200,000 yuan, and your bracelet looks very expensive. Your earrings and necklace are also Bulgari... Your whole outfit is worth over 500,000 yuan!"

"Which rich guy would be so willing to spend that much?"

Su Ruan stroked the bracelet on her wrist.

Her best friend has a good eye for things, but she misjudged the price of the bracelet on her wrist—she missed a zero.

However, she wouldn't correct it.

Instead, she asked Xu Nianhe, "And you? What are you doing here? Did someone bring you here?"

Xu Nianhe immediately became beaming with joy.

"I'm telling you, I actually caught a big fish by accident!"

She moved closer to Su Ruan and proudly gestured with her mouth in the direction Su Ruan had come from.

There, a short, stout, pot-bellied man in his fifties, wearing a suit, was chatting and laughing with someone.

Su Ruan's eyes widened in surprise.

"Is he the big fish you caught?"

Xu Nianhe nodded repeatedly.

"Although he's not a high-ranking official or a big boss, he's the illegitimate son of the wealthy Zhou family, and a lot of women are throwing themselves at him."

"It was only because I was young and beautiful that I was able to defeat all my rivals and successfully take him down."

Su Ruan's eyes widened.

"Are you married?"

Xu Nianhe smiled and shook her head.

"What did you say?"

"He has a wife."

"Besides, how could I possibly marry an old man like that?"

Su Ruan nodded.

She had just thought that Xu Nianhe's words about successfully winning him over meant becoming his official wife.

"Is he generous?" Su Ruan asked again.

Xu Nianhe smiled and nodded, "He's quite generous. I followed him for three months and he gave me 200,000 yuan."

Su Ruan: ...

They are quite easily satisfied.

pretty good.

Then it suddenly dawned on me that the original owner didn't really consider this best friend a true best friend.

The original owner had already spent more than 20 yuan on the old man's money. If Xu Nianhe knew, she definitely wouldn't have shared it with her in this tone.

Su Ruan didn't know how to feel for a moment.

Previously, Su Ruan had even resented Xu Nianhe for dragging the original owner into this mess.

Unlike Xu Nianhe, who only got into an ordinary university, the original owner got into the best university, J University. She didn't need to go astray; she could have just studied hard.

However, the original owner was misled by Xu Nianhe and went astray.

Now, upon closer reflection, it seems the original owner wasn't bewitched by Xu Nianhe, but rather made this choice herself.

"Now that you've talked about me, what about you?"

Xu Nianhe brought up the topic again.

Su Ruan didn't know how to answer for a moment.

She had a very good first impression of Xu Nianhe.

She seems like someone who, although materialistic, is very loyal to her best friends and has a kind heart.

She brushed a stray hair behind her ear.

"I……"

She had barely uttered a single word when Xu Nianhe, understanding her unspoken message, leaned close to her ear.

"Did you also successfully catch a big fish?"

"I told you, with your beauty, there are plenty of rich people willing to spend money on you if you wanted to."

Su Ruan bit her lip.

She wanted to say that it wasn't what she thought; it wasn't money spent on her by rich people.

But then she thought about it again and realized that so far, she hadn't earned a single penny herself, so Xu Nianhe wasn't wrong to say that.

They gave her these things not because she was pretty.

Xu Nianhe continued, "Tell me quietly, who is your sugar daddy?"

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"But if we can facilitate cooperation between investors, we can also get a commission."

Xu Nianhe's eyes held a hint of anticipation for a bright future.

Su Ruan glanced at Xu Nianhe's sugar daddy again.

"What kind of business does your Mr. Zhou run?"

"Building materials," Xu Nianhe said.

"The Zhou family is in the real estate development business, and they would give some of their illegitimate sons some of their projects to make a living."

"But if you want to make big money, you still have to negotiate yourself."

"And you?"

Su Ruan thought for a moment and said two words, "Catering".

A hint of disappointment appeared in Xu Nianhe's eyes.

The catering industry and building materials are completely unrelated, making cooperation virtually impossible.

But she moved closer to Su Ruan.

"I know a channel that replaces genuine products with counterfeit ones at very reasonable prices. Would you like to give it a try?"

Su Ruan shook her head.

"Not needed for the time being."

Xu Nianhe glanced at Su Ruan again.

"You don't... really want to spend your whole life with that old man?"

"Or are you hoping to gain status through your son?"

"I'm telling you, don't have children with just anyone."

"As long as you haven't given birth, your future husbands won't know what you've done, but it's different after you've given birth, don't be silly."

Su Ruan felt a warm feeling in her heart.

"Okay, thank you."

At this moment, Su Ruan's slight resentment towards Xu Nianhe completely disappeared.

Regardless, she still thought of her own good.

Could it be considered... mutual appreciation?

Xu Nianhe gave an awkward smile.

She knew that Su Ruan secretly looked down on her education, felt that she was not the same kind of person as her, and would not genuinely accept her kindness.

But it doesn't matter, as long as she believes it in her heart.

Su Ruan is beautiful and intelligent. With her guidance, as long as she doesn't get too caught up in love, her future will definitely be limitless.

Even if it's just for the sake of our current relationship, I'll still help her out a little.

Xu Nianhe had her own plans, so she was exceptionally tolerant.

"I'll head over now."

"We'll talk again when we find a chance."

"it is good."

Su Ruan nodded and watched Xu Nianhe leave.

She truly didn't expect to encounter this unexpected situation here today.

Fortunately, it wasn't a serious matter.

Before Su Ruan could even feel relieved, she saw Xu Nianhe walking towards her again.

Her sugar daddy, Mr. Zhou, was also by her side.

Mr. Zhou's gaze fell on her.

The scrutinizing look made her very uncomfortable.

"President Zhou, this is my friend, Su Ruan. She's different from me; she's a top student from J University."

"Oh, really?" Mr. Zhou's smile deepened.

"Highly educated people are great, they're cultured!"

That expression, that tone, was extremely unsettling.

Su Ruan's expression grew even colder.
