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

Xu Nianhe stepped forward and gently tugged at her hand.

"Soft and cuddly~"

At the same time, he gestured to her with his eyes, indicating that her expression was off.

Su Ruan simply patted Xu Nianhe's arm reassuringly.

She still looked at Mr. Zhou with a cold gaze.

"Mr. Zhou, is that right? Have some self-respect!"

Her words were cold, and her tone was even colder.

She doesn't seem like a dependent person who rose to power by relying on men at all.

A hint of surprise appeared on Zhou Chu's face.

From Xu Nianhe's few words, he already knew that the seemingly aloof and unapproachable beauty in front of him was actually nothing more than a plaything for people to amuse themselves.

I never expected this woman to be so intimidating.

"It actually looks pretty convincing."

Su Ruan narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Mr. Zhou, you seem to have misunderstood something."

"I'm not the kind of person you think I am."

Zhou Chu's expression finally turned serious.

He took another look at Su Ruan.

Suddenly, he noticed the bracelet on Su Ruan's wrist.

He had seen that bracelet before; it was worn by Madam Su of the Su family in Yuncheng back then.

The woman in front of me, who possessed an extraordinary air, also shared the surname Su.

Perhaps his pet dog truly misunderstood him.

He glared fiercely at Xu Nianhe.

He then regained his gentlemanly demeanor and looked at Su Ruan, "I'm sorry, it was a misunderstanding."

Then he glared at Xu Nianhe and turned to leave.

Seeing that the man was no longer bothering her, Su Ruan didn't bother to pay him any more attention.

After all, he was Xu Nianhe's sugar daddy, so it wasn't good to cause her any trouble.

Xu Nianhe followed Zhou Chu away with a complicated expression.

When she returned, Zhou Chu asked about Su Ruan, and she still harbored some resentment towards Su Ruan.

Because she was afraid that Su Ruan would steal her sugar daddy.

Unexpectedly, Su Ruan showed no respect to her sugar daddy and even acted arrogantly.

In that instant, she felt a greater humiliation than Su Ruan looking down on her.

Su Ruan not only looked down on her, but also on her sugar daddy!

That's the patriarch of the wealthy Zhou family!

Even if he is an illegitimate child, it is not something that a poor and stingy person like Su Ruan has the right to look down on.

But surprisingly, Mr. Zhou, whom she had always considered unapproachable, did not use his status to break Su Ruan's pride as he had done before; instead, he retreated.

"What's wrong with you?!"

"what?"

Xu Nianhe was suddenly met with Zhou Chu's fierce and reproachful gaze.

"Didn't you say that Miss Su was your friend? When did you make such an amazing friend?"

Xu Nianhe was completely stunned.

Su Ruan...Impressive?

Xu Nianhe fully understood what Zhou Chu meant by "powerful".

But isn't Su Ruan a gold digger like her, from a small county town, from a poor family, who dreams of marrying into a wealthy family?

"You don't know?" Zhou Chu's expression turned even more stern.

Xu Nianhe quickly said, "I don't know how amazing Miss Su is. I only know that the Su Ruan I know is an ordinary girl from a small county, just like me."

Suspicion appeared in Zhou Chu's eyes.

"You're saying that the girl wearing a bracelet worth over 200 million yuan is just an ordinary girl?"

"And that dress she's wearing, it's a limited edition that the top luxury brand Jin Shang Feng Hua just released this summer!"

"Could an ordinary girl afford a dress like this?"

Xu Nianhe was startled.

She thought...she thought...

She thought Su Ruan was similar to her.

Aside from the earrings and necklace, which she recognized the brand of, she guessed everything else wrong.

"How is that possible?"

How did Su Ruan manage to find such a powerful sugar daddy!

Just because she's more aloof?

Just because she's prettier than her?

Or is it because her academic qualifications look better than hers?

Xu Nianhe was at a loss for what to do.

She had just tried to give Su Ruan some pointers.

If Su Ruan really found such a generous sugar daddy...

"Could it be?"

Xu Nianhe didn't finish her sentence, but Zhou Chu understood her meaning from her expression.

"It's not impossible."

That woman is so beautiful and a top student, it's not surprising that she's valued by those real big shots.

No wonder that woman had such an aloof demeanor.

You don't like him?

snort!

He wanted to see who the woman's sugar daddy really was.

Once that man has grown tired of her, he'll show her what right she has to be proud!

Su Ruan, who was sitting in the corner, had just taken a sip of juice to calm herself down when she looked up and saw a familiar figure again.

The woman named Lin Xiran whom I met at the Sishui Pavilion.

Su Ruan's thinking makes sense.

After all, Lin Xiran is from Sishui Louting, and may even be its boss, so it's perfectly normal for her to attend a gathering like today.

She looked again, but no familiar faces appeared.

Su Qingyao still hasn't arrived.

Wait, it looks like someone is in the hallway outside?

That silhouette looks just like it.

Su Ruan strode forward, then stopped.

Something doesn't seem right.

The woman looked very similar from behind, but her profile didn't match.

Su Qingyao probably hasn't arrived yet.

Just then, someone else came in.

Su Ruan subconsciously looked over.

It turned out to be Lu Yanci and Lu Shuangshuang.

Lu Shuangshuang saw her as soon as she entered, and then her eyes showed obvious joy.

A smile involuntarily appeared on Su Ruan's face.

Suddenly someone tripped me.

The juice in her hand spilled out, and some splashed onto her body.

The light brown dress with gold brocade pattern that she was wearing was stained with orange juice, making it particularly jarring.

Turning around, they found that the culprit hadn't stopped and was running towards Lu Yanci and his sister at the door.

"Brother Yanci! Sister Shuangshuang! You've arrived!"

You could tell from their tone that they were very familiar with each other.

Su Ruan suppressed her anger slightly.

But that woman was really too reckless.

If you hit someone, even if it's an emergency, you should stop, check on their condition, and apologize.

Su Ruan was furious and hurriedly wiped the juice off her clothes, but a lot of it still seeped in.

On the other side, Lin Zhiyu happily went to greet Lu Yanci and his sister.

But she discovered that neither of them had even glanced at her.

Lu Shuangshuang brushed past her.

Lin Zhiyu was extremely surprised.

Looking at Lu Yanci, who was still standing in the same spot, the gaze falling on her face was so unfamiliar.

"Brother Yanci~"

She called out again timidly, only to find that Lu Yanci didn't even give her a cold look.

Lin Zhiyu followed Lu Yanci's gaze and looked behind her.

It turned out to be the woman she had accidentally bumped into earlier.

Lu Shuangshuang had already taken the woman's hand. "Sister Ruanruan, are you alright?"

Su Ruan frowned slightly and glanced at the stain on her chest.

"It's nothing, just some juice spilled on my dress."

Lu Shuangshuang looked at the stains and felt heartbroken.

"Sister Ruanruan, we happen to have a suitable dress in the car. Let me take you to change into it."

"Who is this?"

Lin Zhiyu's gaze fell on Su Ruan's face.

A flash of amazement crossed her eyes, followed by jealousy.

How can a woman look like that?

She is alluring without being vulgar, beautiful without being seductive, and her cool temperament makes her charm seem exceptionally sophisticated.
