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

And her figure.

Her waist was so slender it could be encircled by one hand, her legs were straight and long, yet she had a curvaceous figure with a prominent bust and buttocks.

It's not the kind of full, voluptuous curves that are overly seductive, but rather a perfectly proportioned, curvaceous beauty.

This woman embodies a perfect blend of allure, beauty, coldness, and coquettishness.

To call her an absolute beauty would be blasphemous.

If she were a man, she would be completely infatuated with him.

Su Ruan was surprised to see hostility in the eyes of this woman she had just met.

The smile that had appeared in his eyes for Lu Shuangshuang vanished instantly.

Lu Shuangshuang was overjoyed and introduced her to Lin Zhiyu, saying, "This is the one I mentioned to you...!"

Lu Shuangshuang didn't dare let Su Ruan know that she had made a bet with someone about the relationship between Su Ruan and her brother, so she only brought it up vaguely.

Lin Zhiyu didn't react for a moment, but quickly understood what Lu Shuangshuang meant.

His eyes were filled with utter shock.

Lu Yanci's online love interest, who was suspected of being a scammer, turned out to be such a beautiful woman.

And they even knew each other in real life.

Doesn't that mean...?

"Zhiyu, you lost the bet!" Lu Shuangshuang laughed triumphantly.

Lin Zhiyu's smile cracked.

What does it mean that she lost?

Could it be that this woman and Lu Yanci really are...

She looked at Lu Yanci in disbelief, "Brother Yanci, is what Shuangshuang said true?"

Lu Yanci did not answer her.

Instead, he coldly said, "You just hit someone, apologize!"

Lin Zhiyu was surprised that Lu Yanci not only didn't answer her question, but also made her apologize to this woman.

"Brother Yanci, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"How can you expect me to apologize to her?"

Even if that woman is beautiful, she's just a lowly gold digger. Does she deserve an apology from Miss Lin?

Lu Yanci remained cold. "Where is your upbringing? Don't make me repeat myself."

Lin Zhiyu gently bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Okay, I apologize!"

Her gaze lingered on Lu Yanci's face.

He straightened his back and slightly raised his chin when he looked at Su Ruan.

"Feel sorry!"

She uttered those two words coldly.

His eyes held an air of superiority.

I'll pay for your dress.

Su Ruan admitted that she had been successfully provoked.

"Is this how you apologize?"

Lin Zhiyu was shocked to see that the woman, whom she thought should have let things go and backed down, was now showing her such an arrogant and haughty demeanor. Her eyes widened in shock.

How dare this woman?

Does she even know who she is?

"Zhiyu, what's wrong?"

It was her aunt's voice.

Lin Zhiyu immediately rushed towards her aunt Lin Xiran, who had hurriedly come over, like a swallow returning to its nest.

"Auntie, she's bullying me!"

Su Ruan looked at Lin Zhiyu with surprise at how quickly her expression changed.

She bullied her?

Lin Xiran tenderly cupped Lin Zhiyu's face and wiped away non-existent tears.

"Don't be afraid, your aunt is here, no one will dare to bully you."

"Besides, your brother Yanci and sister Shuangshuang are here too."

Then he pretended to have just seen Su Ruan.

"Miss Su, it's you!"

"I'm so sorry, my son Zhiyu is young and inexperienced, and he offended Miss Su. Please forgive him!"

"Miss Su is very magnanimous, so please don't hold a grudge against a child like her."

Lin Zhiyu's mouth was so wide open from shock that an egg could fit inside.

What is her aunt saying?

She actually apologized to this woman?

Why should I?!

In this circle, which young lady doesn't she know? This woman in front of her doesn't even exist!

Xu Nianhe, who was watching the commotion from the sidelines, was equally shocked.

She just wanted to know who the man behind Su Ruan was, but she didn't expect to see Su Ruan make a fool of herself.

Before she could even laugh, things began to race in a completely unexpected direction.

First, the cute little girl, who was clearly a high-class noblewoman, enthusiastically rushed towards Su Ruan.

Immediately following was the haughty apology from the noblewoman who had bumped into Su Ruan earlier.

Then, the woman, who was clearly of noble bearing and was supposed to be questioning Su Ruan, suddenly changed her attitude and apologized to Su Ruan as well.

All of these developments were things she couldn't understand.

Su Ruan, is the old guy behind her that powerful?

"You'd better pray that your friend doesn't hold a grudge against us for today's offense!"

Xu Nianhe shivered as she heard Zhou Chu's icy voice behind her.

"They...they..."

Xu Nianhe began to stutter as she spoke.

"As you can see, the one in the deep red dress is Lu Yanci, the heir of the Lu family, a top-tier wealthy family in S City, and the one in the pink princess dress is his sister, Lu Shuangshuang."

"The one who bumped into Miss Su was Lin Zhiyu, the young lady of the Lin family, one of the four major families in S City. The other one was her aunt, Lin Xiran, the future owner of Sishui Louting."

With each introduction, Xu Nianhe's face paled a little more.

There were four people there; if she offended any one of them, it would be a catastrophe.

Yet Su Ruan managed to get along with them and even outmaneuver the Lin family's young lady.

Could it be that she's hooked up with the old master of the Lu family?

Otherwise, how can we explain why the Lin family's youngest daughter, the future owner of Sishui Louting, would be so subservient to a young girl like Su Ruan?

Su Ruan, however, did not feel that Lin Xiran was being subservient to her.

There was something wrong with what she said no matter how you looked at it.

Lu Yanci's expression also darkened.

"Aunt Lin, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to pin the blame for bullying Lin Zhiyu on Miss Su?"

"We just saw it; Ms. Lin hit someone and didn't apologize, and her apology was aggressive."

"If anyone among us is bullying someone, it's Miss Lin."

"Why must you use your seniority to forcibly distort the truth!"

Lu Yanci's words were extremely impolite.

When wealthy families get along, they all value harmony and making money, avoiding making grand pronouncements and minimizing major issues.

Lu Yanci's words were already extremely disrespectful to the Lin family.

After he finished speaking, he turned around and separated Lin Xiran and her niece.

She gestured for Lu Shuangshuang to take Su Ruan to change into her formal dress first.

Lin Zhiyu only realized this after Lu Yanci reminded her. Just now, her aunt seemed to be humble, but in fact she was praising Su Ruan.

Su Ruan doesn't have a matching status; she'll only be seen as arrogant and disrespectful, making her a laughingstock.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly unsolvable scheme was thwarted by Lu Yanci's direct confrontation.

He couldn't help but feel even more angry and resentful.

This woman is good for nothing except her face. Why should Brother Yanci offend the Lin family for her sake?

Lin Xiran was also seething with anger.

She never expected that Lu Yanci, a junior, would speak so rudely to her in such a public setting.

She was unwilling to let Su Ruan leave like this!

We failed to ruin her reputation at school before, but we won't let her off easy today!
