Wen Nuan spoke with a gloomy tone, “My grandfather won’t budge an inch. People always say I’m his favorite in the family, but now it feels like I’m just a pawn for the Wen Family’s matchmaking games. They don’t care about my feelings.”

Jiang Ling’er furrowed her brows and reassured her, “Nuannuan, don’t say that. Maybe Fang Mo has some outstanding qualities. Otherwise, your grandfather wouldn’t have pushed his own granddaughter into this situation.”

Wen Nuan clenched her teeth and expressed her frustration, “Maybe there are some good aspects to him, but he’s a scoundrel. I want someone who loves me wholeheartedly, not a scoundrel.”

“Then who in the Wen family actually thinks this guy is good?” Jiang Ling’er inquired.

Wen Nuan hesitated before replying, “These people… they don’t dare to oppose Grandpa. I’ve fallen out with everyone now. Ling’er, can I stay at your place for a few days? I really don’t want to talk to them.”

After a moment of consideration, Jiang Ling’er agreed, “Alright, just inform your brother so they won’t worry.”

Wen Nuan’s face lit up with happiness as she replied, “Before I left this morning, 1 already told my brother that I’ll be staying with you for the next few days.”

Seeing Wen Nuan finally smile, Jiang Ling’er sighed with relief. She genuinely cared for her friend and hated to see her so distressed. Jiang Ling’er said, “Okay. It’s no trouble at all to have you at my place. Besides, you can just kick back and relax there. Let’s go, class is about to start.”

As the morning passed quickly, there were no more classes in the afternoon. Jiang Ling’er wanted to visit a film set, and Wen Nuan decided to accompany her.

As they descended the stairs, they encountered Bai Xue and Qin Xiaoxiao engaged in a lively conversation.

Observing this, Jiang Ling’er was slightly puzzled. Were Qin Xiaoxiao and Bai Xue close friends? Why were they chatting so amicably?

Wen Nuan rolled her eyes, feeling rather unlucky to have bumped into two insincere individuals.

When Bai Xue spotted Jiang Ling’er, she had a particular motive in mind.

“Ling’er, it’s wonderful to see you. 1 was just about to look for you.”

Jiang Ling’er examined Bai Xue, who was dressed in a white outfit with light makeup, and couldn’t help but think she could captivate many men with her appearance.

Not wanting to get involved in this situation, Qin Xiaoxiao promptly excused herself, “Bai Xue, since you and Miss Jiang have other matters to attend to, I’ll take my leave. The Student Union has some tasks that require my attention.”

“All right. I’ll see you around.” Bai Xue responded politely.

Qin Xiaoxiao courteously nodded to Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan before departing.

Bai Xue then turned her attention to Jiang Ling’er and inquired, “Ling’er, Miss Wen, my birthday is the day after tomorrow, and I’ll be turning 20. Would you both be willing to join my birthday celebration?”

Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan exchanged glances.

Wen Nuan pondered to herself, ‘Is Bai Xue out of her mind? Why is she inviting us? Isn’t she afraid of causing trouble?’

Jiang Ling’er had her own cynical thoughts. In the original storyline, Li Yan had invited numerous young elites and daughters of the upper class to Bai Xue’s birthday party to boost her popularity. Even some influential figures attended to show their support for Bai Xue.

The original Jiang Ling’er had also been invited to the party in the book, but it had been for a different reason. It wasn’t about repairing her relationship with the original host; rather, it was a means to flaunt how much Li Yan doted on Bai Xue.

However, the original host was no longer in the picture, and Jiang Ling’er was no longer engaged to Li Yan. Nevertheless, Bai Xue still wanted to flaunt her status.

In the book, the original Jiang Ling’er had attended with a mixture of anger and jealousy, leading to awkward situations.

This time, Jiang Ling’er had to attend to regain her dignity. The original host had been portrayed as a foolish, large-breasted woman, whose antics cost the Jiang family billions. Jiang Ling’er couldn’t allow such a fate to befall her. This time, she would make Bai Xue and Li Yan bear the consequences.

Jiang Ling’er flashed a seemingly innocent smile and responded, “Sure, send us the invitation, and I promise to bring you a gift.”

Bai Xue was momentarily stunned and began to regret her invitation, sensing ominous premonitions. However, she had already extended the invitation, and there was no taking it back now.

Wen Nuan was rendered speechless.

She couldn’t fathom Jiang Ling’er’s intentions. Why had she agreed? Wasn’t it going to be awkward?

Jiang Ling’er glanced at Wen Nuan’s bewildered expression and smiled, saying, “Nuannuan, let’s go and see just how extravagant Bai Xue’s birthday party will be.”

After a few seconds of contemplation, Wen Nuan finally grasped Jiang Ling’er’s intentions. She replied, “Alright, I’ll go along with your plan. Since I don’t have much to do anyway, I’ll go and take a look.”

Wen Nuan suspected that Li Yan had invited many influential figures and celebrities to attend Bai Xue’s birthday party. Perhaps something interesting would transpire at the event..
