Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Yangyang simply admired Gong Xue’er from the bottom of her heart. The saying “knows when to advance or retreat” suited her perfectly.

The words she just said—about her possessing a charm that lets men treat her well—indirectly suggested that Gu Qichen had asked her for the interview, owing to her attractive appearance. Moreover, this gave her a perfect excuse to withdraw gracefully from the potential embarrassment. However, she remained in her pitiful state with teary eyes, making Xia Yangyang look like the bully if she chose to retaliate.

Even though Xia Yangyang was upset, she didn’t want to confront Gong Xue’er.

Recalling that the person in front of her was once a close friend whom she genuinely cared about for many years, Xia Yangyang felt as though her heart was pierced with a thorn.

Nonetheless, Xia Yangyang generously said, “It doesn’t matter who conducts the interview. When it’s ready, I’ll add your name to it.”

Gong Xue’er was stunned.

Xia Yangyang continued, “Getting to interview Gu Qichen is the collective effort of the entire news agency, not the achievement of a single individual. So, Chief, when the magazine is published, I hope the author’s name would be the entire team of the news agency.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Li was overjoyed. She knew that when the publication is released, it’s bound to create a sensation. Having one’s name on such an article was considered a great achievement in one’s career.

Xu Li said, “Yangyang, I didn’t expect you to be so generous. Thank you.”

Xia Yangyang glanced at Gong Xue’er, a subtle resentment flashed in her eyes.

Anyone could play generous and win people’s hearts. Xia Yangyang had merely thought it beneath her to do so.

After they got out of the elevator, Gong Xue’er said, “Everyone has worked hard today. I’ll treat everyone to dinner tonight at the YunDing Restaurant. How does that sound?”

YunDing Restaurant? Everyone was taken aback.

This was one of the most luxurious restaurants in Capital, a place where only the rich and powerful could afford to dine. It wasn’t a place where ordinary people could manage to pay for.

When the other members of the news agency heard this, they were thrilled. “YunDing Restaurant! Even an average dish there costs a four-digit number!” “The rich princess is indeed different, so generous.”

Gong Xue’er walked over to Xia Yangyang and said, “Yangyang, you must come. Consider it my way of apologizing.”

If Xia Yangyang declined, she would appear petty.

So, in the end, Xia Yangyang went with everyone to YunDing Restaurant.

Xia Yangyang knew about Gong Xue’er’s financial situation at home and couldn’t figure out why she was putting on airs.

But Xia Yangyang chose not to say anything.

The dinner cost them twenty thousand yuan.

When it was time to pay, Gong Xue’er whipped out a black card.

Very few people in the entire city owned this black card; they were all extraordinarily wealthy. This revelation shocked everyone as they thought Gong Xue’er had been understated in her wealth; she was, in fact, a real noble lady.

However, Xia Yangyang recognized it at a glance—it was Lu Haotian’s black card.

Xu Li said, “Xue’er, that card bears a significant status. As far as I know, fewer than ten people in Feng City possess this card.”

Purposely leaving the black card on the table in front of Xia Yangyang, Gong Xue’er said, “Really? I didn’t know. My boyfriend gave it to me as a birthday gift. To me, it’s just an ordinary credit card.”

This remark from Gong Xue’er stirred everyone’s interest.

Someone said, “Xue’er, your boyfriend must be an influential figure if he can give away a black card so casually.”

“We’re so envious! He must love you dearly, Xue’er. We’d like to see what kind of person your boyfriend is,” the others chimed in.

Blushing modestly, Gong Xue’er said, “He will come to pick me up in a while.”

The group couldn’t help but tease, “Xue’er, you are truly fortunate!”

Just then, the door to the private room opened.

A tall figure appeared in the doorway.

Gong Xue’er quickly said, “He’s here..”
