Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Later, when she saw Fang Xiaonuan’s face, she became a little famous in her first year. At one point, everyone secretly acknowledged her as the school belle.

At that time, Gao Qianqian did not take it to heart. To her, the school belle was a title that gained nothing more than envy, jealousy, and hatred. But this time, she was several thousand votes behind Fang Xiaonuan in the school belle evaluation and got second place. She was already jealous, but Lin Rou looked down on her and riled her up. Thus, she bribed the doctor to find someone to defame Fang Xiaonuan. She did not expect that she would become a joke in the end.

Now, Gao Qianqian’s second-place spot in the school beauty rankings had already fallen again and again, until she dropped out of the running altogether. Gao Qianqian could only seek Lin Rou’s help.

Lin Rou was expressionless and did not want to interfere. “You’re just so useless. What does it have to do with me? I never care about brainless people.” Lin Rou thought that Gao Qianqian would become her ‘weapon’. In school, she could make things difficult for Fang Xiaonuan. From the looks of it, Gao Qianqian’s IQ was not enough.

“Rou’er, our families are on good terms, so please help me! In the end, you played a part in this matter. If you hadn’t provoked me that day, I wouldn’t have been so impulsive.” Gao Qianqian absolutely did not dare to talk to Lin Rou like that. She had been forced into a corner.

“Do you know who Fang Xiaonuan is?” Lin Rou seemed emotionless. Her tone was calm, but it gave off a sinister feeling.

“I don’t know, but her family is quite rich.” This was the only impression Gao Qianqian had of Fang Xiaonuan.

“Didn’t anyone tell you to investigate her background if you wanted to teach her a lesson? She married Ji Lingchen this year. It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but Ji Lingchen was the one who acted.” Lin Rou was trying to comfort Gao Qianqian. This useless chess piece would be useful in the future.

Gao Qianqian was very shocked. She actually did not know about such a huge factor. What sort of man was Ji Lingchen!

Lin Rou clearly understood Ji Lingchen’s methods. He was using his own methods to deal with her. So, it was not hard to see that Ji Lingchen was the one who made the move.

Gao Qianqian said, “Rou’er, why did she marry CEO Ji? Aren’t you the woman who has always been by his side?”

This question wounded Lin Rou. She had been by Ji Lingchen’s side for more than ten years. If he had even the slightest interest in her, she would have had the chance to marry into the Ji family. However, he was just like a block of wood in terms of feelings.

Old Master Ji had always been on guard against her, as if he had forgotten what had happened in the past. When she spoke about what had happened in the past, Old Master Ji would make it very clear that the Ji family had long since returned the favor.

Now, Lin Rou was not allowed near the Ji family thank to Old Master Ji. She once went to look for Feng Qi, but for some reason, Feng Qi kept avoiding her. She either said she was sick or made other excuses. This made it very hard to learn about the current situation in the Ji family, as well as Fang Xiaonuan’s placing in the Ji family.

Now, Ji Lingchen had interfered with Gao Qianqian over a small matter, making Lin Rou even more uncertain. “You can only admit defeat once and find an opportunity to do something good to cover up the bad news. Next year, you can compete with her again.”

“Rou’er, I’m not up to it.”

“Even if you’re not up to it, you have to swallow your anger. You did those things. The one who retaliated was Ji Lingchen. He’s someone we can’t offend.” Lin Rou did not understand the internal affairs of the Ji family. She was still clear about the school’s affairs. She asked, “Ji Wen is also in the same class as Fang Xiaonuan, right?”

“Yes, he is Fang Xiaonuan’s little follower. He is despicable,” Gao Qianqian answered truthfully.

“Shut up, idiot. Do you know who Ji Wen is? He is Mayor Ji’s son, Ji Lingchen’s nephew!” Lin Rou glared at Gao Qianqian and rebuked her.

“What? Isn’t he just an ordinary son of an official?” Gao Qianqian was even more surprised.

“Did you just say that Ji Wen is Fang Xiaonuan’s sidekick? Are they very close?” Lin Rou asked again.

Gao Qianqian answered defenseless, “Very close. Fang Xiaonuan has three best friends. One is a handsome college student, but he left this year after studying abroad. The other is a young lady from a police family. They are inseparable, and Ji Wen is closest to her after that.”

Lin Rou had never thought that things would develop to this point. “Qianqian, in the future, you can tell me anything about Fang Xiaonuan at school. This time, I’ll take revenge for you.”

That day, when Feng Qi was putting on her face mask at home, Lin Rou called again. These days, she often invited Feng Qi out to meet her, saying that they could go shopping together to unwind. “Sister-in-law, it’s not good for you to be bored at home. Besides, seeing Fang Xiaonuan all the time must be unpleasant. If you’re unhappy, you’ll get wrinkles. Let’s go out for a beauty treatment and cheer you up.”
