Chapter 16

Gong Nian sat opposite her, looked at her and smiled: “Do you know me?”

Xiang Nuan’s smile froze, she pinched her palm with her nails, and soon calmed down. She smiled and said, “I’ve only heard of it, but seeing is believing. Miss Gong is indeed more elegant than the rumors say.”

Gong Nian asked in surprise: “Really? Who told you that?”

Zhuang Linna blinked ambiguously: “Who else could it be? Nuannuan has gained a lot of benefits in the past two years by relying on this face that looks like Miss Gong, right, Nuannuan?”

Those who knew the inside story covered their mouths and laughed, their eyes full of contempt.

“Xiao Nian, it’s a good thing you returned to China, otherwise some people would continue to use your name to defraud people. They are really shameless.”

“A fake is a fake. How can it compare to the real thing? It looks like a fool trying to imitate a beautiful woman. She clearly smells like a prostitute. How can she pretend to be a decent woman?”

Xiang Nuan’s face gradually turned cold, and she wanted to explode, but she thought that this was an opportunity that Sister Xuanlin had fought hard for her, and she couldn’t ruin the dinner, so she could only endure it in silence.

Gong Nian held down the hand of the person next to him and said softly, “Don’t say that. It’s hurtful.”

“Xiao Nian, you are kindhearted, and you can even treat this kind of person with a good face.”

“It’s not easy for Miss Xiang either. I heard that her family is not well off…”

Gong Nian hesitated to speak, watching Xiang Nuan’s face turning paler and paler.

Xiang Nuan stood up and forced a twitch of her lips: “Sorry, I feel a little uncomfortable. I have to excuse myself for a moment.”

Then quickly escape.

She hurriedly hid in the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and clear water flowed out. She didn’t even care about the makeup she had spent two hours carefully putting on, and directly scooped up a handful of water and splashed it on her face. Only then did this dizzying world finally regain some tranquility.

“It’s not easy for Miss Xiang either. I heard that her family is not well off…”

A sharp buzzing sound rang in my mind, and the dark memories that had been deliberately buried came flooding back like a tide.

She leaned her hands on the sink, her face pale.

“Miss Xiang, are you feeling unwell?”

She turned around and saw Gong Nian followed in, looking at her ignorantly.

Xiang Nuan casually tore off a piece of paper and wiped the water droplets off her face: “Ms. Gong is such a good actress, she should come act.”

Gong Nian smiled and said, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

Xiang Nuan looked at her with sharp eyes: “You know exactly what I am talking about.”

“I’m just a little curious about what kind of woman Yan Shi found.”

“He and I are done. You don’t need to be curious about me.”

“I’m just reminding you not to get entangled with him. He and you are not from the same world.”

Xiang Nuan blinked: “Does Miss Gong need to come and warn someone like me in person? Is it because you don’t have the confidence to control Chen Yanshi?”

Gong Nian’s expression changed slightly.

Xiang Nuan smiled: “I was planning to give up, but what Miss Gong said made me think that I might still have a chance. It seems that I have to pester her a little longer. Maybe, Chen Yanshi can keep me for two more years?”

“you!”

Xiang Nuan casually threw the paper ball into the trash can and left without stopping.

As soon as I walked out of the bathroom, Amy ran over and said, “Sister Nuan, where have you been? I lost my focus and couldn’t find you. You, you have makeup on your face…”

Xiang Nuan pulled the corner of her lips and said, “Sorry, I got wet accidentally just now. Take me to touch up my makeup.”

Amy looked at her obviously red eyes and nodded blankly: “Okay.”
