Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wen Nuan asked with a hint of confusion, “Shouldn’t friends stand by each other, even if it means going to great lengths?”

Jiang Ling’er smiled and replied, “While that’s true, we shouldn’t throw our friends into the heart of a storm. Rest assured, I have my own plans.”

Furrowing her brow, Wen Nuan sighed and said, “Ah… I don’t really know much about Li Yu, apart from hearing that he’s exceptionally talented. 1 don’t know what makes him outstanding. As for Li Yan, there have been many rumors, but I never thought he had such poor taste.”

Jiang Ling’er commented, “Everyone has their own sense of aesthetics. Nowadays, many people say that the ‘other woman’ isn’t necessarily younger or prettier than the original partner, or even smarter. The main thing is that the ‘other woman’ knows how to please the man.”

Wen Nuan agreed, saying, “That’s true.”

Jiang Ling’er then expressed remorse, “Wen Nuan, I shouldn’t have said so much. I’m sorry for making you feel uncomfortable.”

Wen Nuan shook her head and said, “1 don’t feel that uncomfortable. It’s just a bit frustrating. Even if there was a past relationship, and it’s all over now, I can understand that. But if, after being with me, there’s still lingering attachment to someone else, 1 won’t have the same level of tolerance as you.”

Jiang Ling’er immediately felt a pang of guilt and replied, “Don’t think too much about it. Maybe we’re overthinking this.”

Wen Nuan responded, “It’s not that. It’s just that 1 never considered these issues because I’ve always felt superior and believed that I could have whatever 1 wanted. I’ve always gotten what 1 wanted, and in the past, I was just watching others make fools of themselves. But 1 never thought that I’d end up as one of those people.”

Jiang Ling’er comforted her, saying, “Wen Nuan, what’s meant to be yours will be yours, and what’s not, you don’t need to feel upset about. After all, it’s not worth it.”

Wen Nuan changed the topic, asking, “Let’s put that aside for now. I’m really curious, why did you come back so early? Did Li Yu have to attend another meeting?”

Wen Nuan genuinely wanted to know how she had returned so soon.

Jiang Ling’er casually replied, “He confessed his feelings to me, and 1 turned him down.”

Wen Nuan exclaimed in shock, “Oh my God! I knew he liked you! After you break off your engagement with Li Yan, you should give it a try.”

Jiang Ling’er finished her coffee and said, “I think we should get some rest.”

Wen Nuan, still puzzled, asked, “I really don’t understand why you refused him. He’s such an outstanding man. How could you?”

Jiang Ling’er replied, “1 need to freshen up. You can ponder it yourself.”

With her coffee in hand, Wen Nuan followed Jiang Ling’er to the bathroom, muttering to herself, “Hmph… what a coward, always trying to avoid problems.”

Jiang Ling’er was momentarily taken aback, then smiled. Was she a coward? Perhaps. If there’s no certainty in something, it’s better not to attempt it, to avoid getting hurt in the end.

The next morning, at 9:30 a.m., the competition results were announced, and once again, Jiang Ling’er secured the first position.

Jiang Ling’er showed little reaction to this achievement. Even when receiving the award, she only smiled at the teacher, exchanged a few formal words, and didn’t display much excitement.

After the announcement, the group had lunch together before returning to their hotel.

Wen Nuan watched Jiang Ling’er packing her belongings with a happy expression.

Wen Nuan said, “Ling’er, do you know that I’m happier for you now than if I had won an award myself?”

Jiang Ling’er smiled and nodded. It was evident how happy Wen Nuan was for her.

Wen Nuan asked, “When are you going to get an Oscar?”

Jiang Ling’er replied, “Don’t tease me, Wen Nuan. I’ll wait for you to get your Oscar, and then you can lend it to me for some photos.”

Wen Nuan chuckled and said, “I’ll give you a chance to take that back; let me say the words.”

Jiang Ling’er playfully responded, “Sorry, 1 can’t take it back. I never even thought about getting an Oscar.”

Once everything was packed, Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan left the room with their luggage.

The journey from the capital back to their hometown took over ten hours by car. However, instead of having Wen Nuan drive, Jiang Ling’er had arranged for a driver in advance.

The driver had been waiting outside for a while, but it would take more than ten hours by car to get home. So, the two of them booked a ticket and asked the driver to send them directly to the airport.

After waiting at the airport for more than half an hour, they boarded the plane.

In less than three hours, the two of them arrived home.

Upon landing, Wen Nuan was picked up by her brother. As for Jiang Ling’er, her family’s driver had been waiting for her at the airport.

When Jiang Ling’er arrived home, Old Master Jiang, Jiang Hua, and Jiang Sheng were all there. However, Jiang Jun and Lin Lin were not there.

Her grandfather said with excitement, “My dear Ling’er, you’re finally back.”

Old Master Jiang was excited. Seeing his granddaughter succeed was more joyful for him than making a lot of money..
