Qiao Nian lowered her head to eat.
Sensing that Lu Zhu had been watching her, she looked up and realized that he was looking at her thoughtfully.

One had to know that the way Lu Zhu used to look at her was filled with disgust and alienation.

Qin Jing surveyed their surroundings and instantly knew where they were.
These slums were among the poorest areas inCity A.

But it also had the cheapest rents anyone could find, with a vegetable market stationed nearby.
It was a good enough place for those who struggled to get by.

Still, this was quite a distance from No.
1 High School.

Xu Xuan’s family certainly couldn’t afford the daily bus fare back and forth.
Even if they could, Xu Xuanwould probably refuse to take the bus, seeing how frugal she was.
She didn’t have a bicycle, either.

So, how exactly was she getting to and from school?

And to think, on top of their financial situation, she also had a debt to pay off with Yao Ran.Qin JingknewYao Ranenough to know that she had probably taken advantage ofXu Xuanin their arrangements.

Her brows furrowed at the thought.
She just couldn’t understand it.

“Xu Xuan, how come you’re still blindly following Yao Randespite your living conditions? Are you an idiot or something? Not only is she no help to you, but she even makes things more difficult.”

Xu Xuan didn’t acknowledgeQin Jingand focused on meandering through the alley with her precious cargo on her back.
A while later, she halted in front of a dingy apartment building.

She turned to the two other girls and asked, “Are you coming upstairs? I should warn you, it’s very messy in there.”

Qin Jing nodded emphatically.
“Of course! We’re here, anyway.
There’s no reason for us to just up and leave.”

Xu Xuan led them up to the third floor and retrieved a key from the top of the door frame.

She unlocked the door and held it wide for them.

Inside, they were greeted by a tiny living room.

It was just about ten square meters all in all, but everything was spot clean.
The only furniture they had were a handful of stools and an old dining table.

Xu Xuan motioned for them to take a seat while she carried her grandmother to the latter’s bedroom.

After setting the old woman comfortably on the bed, she went and took out some old-fashioned, enamel cups and poured water for her guests.

Qin Jing stared at the cup in her hands, feeling like they had traveled back in time to the last century.

Even so, she refrained from voicing out her opinions and quietly sipped her water.

Xu Xuan sat with them, looking lost and restless.
Then, as though she had a sudden epiphany, she perked up and turned toYao Tang.
“Hang on, when Grandma wakes up, can you help me explain the whole situation back there?”

She knew that her grandmother had been furious with her back at the club.

She had not had a good life since she was young.
Even so, she had tried her best to live and shine in the dark.

At this moment, Lu Zhu’s impression of Qiao Nian changed.

From the looks of it, every time Qiao Nian looked at him like that, perhaps he simply felt that she looked familiar.

After breakfast, Lu Zhu’s phone rang.

“Okay, I’ll be right there!”

With that, Lu Zhu hung up and looked up at Qiao Nian.
“Your bodyguard has arrived.
We’re going to see him now! He’s waiting for us in the hall!”

Actually, Qiao Nian didn’t need any bodyguards.
With someone following her, she might feel a little uncomfortable.

However, this was Gu Zhou’s kind intentions, so she couldn’t refuse.

Qiao Nian followed Lu Zhu back to the hall.
At this moment, everyone in the hall was looking at them.

Some were envious, some were jealous, and some were up to no good.

Qiao Nian frowned slightly.

Actually, there was a reason why she was wearing a red dress today.
She just wanted to see if she could be lucky.

However, she ignored the fact that it would attract the attention of others.

Although she did not like Qiao Yu, what he had said previously still made sense.

Lu Zhu looked around and finally found his target.
He waved his hand in the distance.

Qiao Nian followed Lu Zhu’s gaze and saw a man walking towards them.
Her eyes widened slightly.

She was instantly stunned.

Jesus!

How was this a bodyguard? He was clearly the young master of a family!
