Chapter 816: Chapter 816: 816: Jiang Xiaoyan's Reputation Suffers

“This isn’t just me making wild guesses,” Moli blinked, “the whole circle of tycoons is buzzing about it.”

An Nuonuo’s smile faded bit by bit.

Moli’s smile, on the other hand, grew thicker, “Ah, but then again, men will be men, bound to get involved in some fishy business outside.”

“It’s just Mr. Jiang’s image of a devoted lover that has completely collapsed now.”

“Slap!”

The moment her words fell, she received a slap on her face.

The scene went silent.

The one who slapped her wasn’t Bai Xiaoya, but An Nuonuo.

Even though this girl had a gentle nature and never got into conflicts with others,

she always kept to herself, calm as water.

She gave off an impression that she would never get angry.

But this time was different.

When someone publicly bad-mouthed her husband, she couldn’t bear it.

Jiang Xu was her life’s support; the two had long since become one, inseparable.

No matter how good-tempered An Nuonuo was, she just couldn’t tolerate it.

“Apologize,” An Nuonuo spoke up.

“What… What?” Moli was stunned.

“Apologize to my husband,” An Nuonuo repeated.

Her tone didn’t fluctuate much.

It was as if she was discussing what to have for dinner.

But Moli felt a chill.

If she didn’t comply, something she couldn’t control might happen.

Moli had thought An Nuonuo was a soft-natured woman who would never get angry.

She hadn’t expected her to resort to slapping someone.

Moli’s face burned with the sting of the slap.

This made it hard for her to save face.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

What was worse, the other ladies of high society nonchalantly stepped back as if to distance themselves from her.

Moli felt resentful but dared not show it.

All she could do was bow deeply to An Nuonuo, “I’m sorry, I was wrong. I should not have spoken carelessly, please forgive me.”

An Nuonuo didn’t spare her another glance and walked past her to the inside.

“Wait for me, Nuonuo.”

The others followed her.

Moli couldn’t wait to get out of there and left quickly.

“Nuonuo, that was impressive,” Bai Xiaoya looked at her with surprise. “I didn’t expect you to have such a tough side.”

An Nuonuo said somewhat sheepishly, “They can talk about me, but they can’t bad-mouth my husband.”

Bai Xiaoya: “Tsk tsk tsk, I’ve been fed a big spoonful of dog food.”

Zhou Mengmeng’s eyes flickered, gaining a deeper understanding of An Nuonuo.

Her sore spot was Jiang Xu.

The incident soon passed.

The girls sang and drank in the private room, the atmosphere heady and boisterous.

Bai Xiaoya had actually heard about the rumor of Jiang Xu’s liking for married women yesterday.

But she didn’t take it to heart.

She knew Jiang Xu would never do such a thing.

If Jiang Xu really had that sort of preference—

then she would waste no time in finding a fake husband to marry.

After singing their hearts out, the girls sat together, munching on snacks and chatting.

“Hey, Mengmeng, are you shooting your second movie?” Bai Xiaoya inquired.

“Yes, Sister Xiaoya,” Zhou Mengmeng replied obediently. “I just finished filming my part a few days ago, so I can rest today.”

“I’m looking forward to it,” Bai Xiaoya’s eyes shone. “After all, ‘Blue Sea’ is still pulling in over ten million in daily box office.”

The exceptionally long lifespan of the movie meant its run kept getting extended.

Can’t help it, it’s all about making money, no shame in that.

A final box office of over four billion was a foregone conclusion.

If Mengmeng could put out one or two more movies with similar results, she could become the youngest actress to reach ten billion in box office earnings.

“That reminds me,” said Bai Xiaoya, glancing at Zhou Mengmeng and An Nuonuo with a sly grin, “there’s been this viral little experiment online recently, have you guys heard about it?”

An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng both shook their heads, indicating they had no idea.

“Hehehe,” Bai Xiaoya laughed with a hooligan’s glee, “Mentholatum.”

An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng looked at Bai Xiaoya with full-faced question marks.

Bai Xiaoya said, “It all started with a girl seeking a thrill, she dripped Mentholatum on that spot.”

An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng were both deeply shocked, their cheeks reddening instantly.

This… this could damage it, right?

“Apparently,” Bai Xiaoya pursed her lips, “after applying Mentholatum, you get a feeling like every man in the county has been in there…”

An Nuonuo: “…”

Zhou Mengmeng: “…”

This question was just too off the syllabus, both girls had no idea how to respond.

Although An Nuonuo had taken a husband, her personality just didn’t allow her to be that bold.

As for Zhou Mengmeng…

Even though she had a cruel streak and a cunning mind, when it came to matters between men and women, she was still a pristine blank slate.

Unlike Bai Xiaoya, who apparently spent too much time surfing the web and had been led astray by some unscrupulous netizens.

Or perhaps as she grew older, her lecherous qualities were activated.

She frequently ‘drove the car’, and her driving skills were wickedly good.

“So… ta-da-da-da…” Bai Xiaoya pulled out a bottle of newly bought Mentholatum from her bag.

She winked at them mischievously: “Shall we give it a try?”

An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng immediately looked at Bai Xiaoya with faces full of horror, shaking their heads desperately.

Bai Xiaoya, you know your persona has totally collapsed, right?

“Don’t you really want to give it a try?” Bai Xiaoya continued to tempt them, “We’re all young, we should be brave in trying new things.”

An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng still shook their heads.

That thing was too out of line, they would never do it, not if it killed them.

“Alright then,” Bai Xiaoya said, somewhat disappointed, “If Jiang Xiaoyan were here, with her level of deviance, she would definitely agree.”

Jiang Xiaoyan’s reputation suffered.

Jiang Xiaoyan: Go f*ck yourself.

In the end, Bai Xiaoya ran off to the bathroom in the private room by herself.

Having bought it, she definitely had to try it.

She opened the bottle of Mentholatum, applied a bit to her hand, and then—

“Hiss!!!”

The next second, Bai Xiaoya let out a series of sharp gasps.

Her eyes bulged wide, her whole body shivering uncontrollably.

She endured for more than a minute, then began hopping on the spot.

Unbelievable.

Truly unbelievable.

An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng ran to the outside of the restroom, concerned by the noises inside.

After a while, An Nuonuo couldn’t help but ask, “Sister Xiaoya, are you okay?”

“I’m great, really great, hold on, I’ll just rinse off with water and then I can come out.”

You better mean come out.

A few minutes later, Bai Xiaoya slumped on the sofa.

She stared blankly at the ceiling.

Her appearance—

Gave the impression she’d been doing that thing for three days and three nights, almost dead from exhaustion.

An Nuonuo: “…”

Zhou Mengmeng: “…”

After Bai Xiaoya had somewhat recovered, An Nuonuo and Zhou Mengmeng helped her to her feet from both sides and left the place.

By then, Jiang Xu had already returned home.

After a few days’ recovery, the scars on his face had vanished.

Now, he was at home waiting for An Nuonuo to return.

Eagerly anticipating.

Sitting and waiting for her to come back.
