Jiang Xue raised her chin, regaining her lofty demeanor. With a playful tone, she quipped, “Oh, listen to what you’re saying, Jiao. So, without me around, you all can’t have any fun?”

Fang Jiao affectionately tugged at Jiang Xue’s arm and said, “Of course! You’re the backbone of our little group. Without you, what would we do? Besides, everyone is eagerly looking forward to seeing you, the big star!”

Jiang Xue chuckled proudly. She knew her worth among these people. Without exception, they all sought something beneficial from her, either the resources of the Gu family or the influence she carried.

“Alright, stop pulling me. People who don’t know better might think we’re a couple,” Jiang Xue said irritably.

“What’s wrong with that? As long as it’s you, I’m happy to play along. Come here,” Fang Jiao said, attempting to cozy up.

Jiang Xue shook her head and pushed away the clingy Fang Jiao, accidentally shoving her into the path of Zhao Yuan who was passing by.

Zhao Yuan had been looking for a private room, but had lost her way and ended up here, only to be jostled by Fang Jiao.

Firming her stance, Fang Jiao eyed the person she had collided with and mocked, “Decked out in last year’s cheap brand, there’s no wonder you can only make it to a private room at the ‘Mortal Realm’ floor.”

Zhao Yuan examined her own clothes skeptically. These were last year’s styles? It did seem that way upon reflection. She had been busy with her lab projects all year and had not bought new clothes.

But what did her clothes have to do with these people? Zhao Yuan retorted without reservation, “Yeah, I’m here in this ‘Mortal’ place. Since you don’t belong here, why don’t you hurry up and ascend to the heavens?”

Watching the ever sharp-tongued Zhao Yuan, Jiang Xue’s annoyance, previously stirred by Shen Xi, surged once again.

She dared not provoke Shen Xi. However, she could definitely put a mere lackey like Zhao Yuan in her place, could she not?

Jiang Xue caught hold of Fang Jiao, who was ready for a brawl, and with a derisive smile, she said, “Dealing with such lowly individuals would dirty our hands. We should let our underlings handle this.”

As she spoke, Jiang Xue dialed a number on her phone.

Hearing the opposite side refer to her as a lowly person, Zhao Yuan’s anger flared instantly. She retaliated in fury, “How dare you insult me like that? You two are the lowly ones here. Move aside, don’t block the way.”

Unwilling to engage in a conflict with these two, Zhao Yuan did not want to cause trouble for her family.

But Fang Jiao intercepted her and barred her way. Zhao Yuan was riled up, and a scuffle ensued with Fang Jiao.

The security guards rushed over after Jiang Xue’s call and immediately restrained Zhao Yuan against a nearby wall.

The chill seeped into her skin as she felt her face pressed against the cold wall.

With a sinister glint in her eyes, Jiang Xue traced her fine fingertip across Zhao Yuan’s fair cheek, taunting, “Who are you to challenge me? Don’t get ahead of yourself! ”

Looking pleased, Fang Jiao chimed in, “Exactly! Gu Ning is a young miss of the Gu family. Hmph, you have some nerve to raise your hand. Watch me rip your face to shreds!”

As Fang Jiao moved to slash at Zhao Yuan’s face, she was forcefully pulled backward by a strong grip. Stumbling, she took a couple of steps back and looked at the man before her in disbelief. She snapped, “Guan Bo, have you gone mad? How dare you interfere when Gu Ning is trying to teach someone a lesson.’

The Guan and Gu families were archenemies. Logically, they should be at odds. But the circle was small, and it was widely known that Guan Bo had offended Guan Lei and even the young miss of the Shen family. Consequently, everyone was eager to kick a man when he was down.

Those close to the Gu and Guan families, as well as those close to the Shen family, were not showing any kindness to Guan Bo.

Shoving aside the security guard, Guan Bo shielded Zhao Yuan in his arms, his face smug as he boasted, “Yes, I’ve gone mad. Is this the first time you’ve heard of it? I advise you not to provoke me. Once my temper takes hold, it won’t spare anyone, even women.”

Gu Ning burst into laughter at the sight of Guan Bo, who played her like a puppet four years ago.

Truly, how the tides had turned!

If Guan Bo had not clashed with Guan Lei’s faction, even with Jiang Xue’s current status and the protection of the Gu family, she would not have dared to lay a finger on him.

But fate had a way of playing its hand. Guan Bo had offended Guan Lei, and now she could settle both old and new scores with him.

Watching Guan Bo holding Zhao Yuan in his arms, Jiang Xue chuckled softly.

“Who would’ve thought? You two have actually joined forces. Quite interesting. Well, I’ll grant your wish – may good things come in pairs for you. Perhaps you’ll be a pair of disabled mandarin ducks, performing on the streets in your old age..”
