"I’m not a fraud, I’m not!" Susan shook Qianmo’s shoulders excitedly. "You’ve all been deceived by the Ou Family! That Mr. Ling is a fake, his accusation is fake too! But , I’m real! I have Mr. Ling’s true love ring! I have his notebook—these are all evidence..."
"Even now, you’re still pretending?! Have you forgotten how you were on your knees yesterday, begging Xia Zhiyun for forgiveness with tears streaming down your face?!"
"So what?!" Susan snarled viciously. "The reporters were already driven away by security at the ti. Only a few of us were present—who heard admitting I was a fraud? No one but you all! So, I’m real. To the public, I’m the Ou Family’s true savior!"
"Ha! Savior? You should see how many people online still believe you!"
"I’ll change their opinions!" Susan gripped Qianmo’s arms tightly. "Momo, believe —don’t you want to marry Ou Jue? Your reputation with the Ou Family has already crumbled. Only I can help you!"
Yeah...
Qianmo weakly tilted her head back.
Her reputation had crumbled.
She’d spent so long pretending to be sweet and obedient, painstakingly winning back the Ou Family’s approval, painstakingly making Ou Jue act toward her the way he used to—even if it was just as a sibling.
But now... it was all gone.
She refused to accept it.
Every ti she thought of Xia Xiyan holding onto Ou Jue’s arm, taunting her again and again, she clenched her teeth in fury.
Take him back.
She had to take Ou Jue back, no matter the cost!
"What else do you have in mind?"
"You just wait and see, Momo. From now on, I’m your mother. I’ll fight for everything you want!" Susan pulled Qianmo into her arms. "My daughter will never lose to Xia Zhiyun’s daughter—never!"

Night.
Xiyan tossed and turned, unable to sleep, so she started scrolling through Weibo.
The events of the day were constantly fernting, with several topics making it onto the trending list.
Thankfully, the netizens were kind-hearted.
Especially "Absolute Beauty Couple" fans.
So many of the comnts under marketing accounts were completely dominated by fans of the Absolute Beauty Couple.
They were fiercely combative, capable of clashing with Qianmo’s fans for ages, utterly relentless as they swore to defend them to the end.
They say you truly see soone’s heart in tis of trouble.
Reading those comnts, Xiyan couldn’t help but feel a little emotional.
Even though she was an artist, Xiyan had always held the most genuine sincerity in her heart.
Because no one is obligated to treat you well, with no strings attached.
When others treat you kindly, you must learn to appreciate it.
Oops. Talking about it is almost bringing to tears.
Xiyan blinked, staring at the ceiling.
She really wanted the people online who supported her and trusted her to know...
They didn’t choose the wrong person.
Susan and Qianmo truly are bad people—they’re very, very bad.
Her phone suddenly buzzed with a notification. It was a ssage from Ou Jue: "Co downstairs."
Xiyan: ???
Ou Jue: "I’m outside your building."
Huh? Outside my building?
Xiyan hurriedly slipped on her slippers and ran downstairs.
As soon as she stepped out the door, she spotted a Lamborghini parked under a streetlamp not far away.
The autumn night air had already grown chilly. Ou Jue, dressed in a black trench coat, stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the sports car.
The dim glow of the streetlamp cast beautiful shadows on his sharply defined face.
Xiyan jogged over. "It’s already past eleven at night—what are you up to?"
