“Let me help you.”

Gu Li said with a smile, her dimples deepening at the corners of her mouth, exceptionally beautiful.

Lin Ranzhu was stunned by her smile and it took a while before she could recover. In disbelief, she widened her eyes, “You’re going to help me?”

“Yes.”

Gu Li nodded, handing over a bank card, “There’s 10,000 yuan in there for you.”

“Ah, this…”

Lin Ranzhu was taken aback: “Why are you helping me? I almost harmed you.”

Gu Li just smiled without a word, pushing the bank card into her hand, “The password is six sixes, remember it.”

“Thank you.”

Lin Ranzhu bowed deeply, her heart and eyes full of gratitude.

Gu Li gently patted her on the shoulder, “You should thank yourself for holding onto your kindness.”

Her voice was heavy with earnestness as she said this, then turned and walked away.

Lin Ranzhu was left standing there, staring at her graceful retreating figure, her emotions churning.

Indeed, if she hadn’t adhered to her principles, she probably wouldn’t have met someone as generous as her.

A fleeting thought, sometimes, really does decide whether the next station is heaven or hell…

Looking down at the bank card in her hand, she suddenly tensed up.

Oh no, she forgot to ask for her name and contact information. How would she return the money in the future?

Lin Ranzhu immediately rushed out to chase her, but in the vast crowd, Gu Li was already nowhere to be found.

Of course, at this moment, Gu Li would not know that the young girl she kindly helped, would one day become an important partner.

Having helped someone, Gu Li was in high spirits. Once in the car, the corners of her mouth curled up in amusement.

Da Ha teased, “Boss, you’ve been gone awhile. Did you have a romantic encounter? You seem very pleased.”

Gu Li teased him back while laughing,” Just shut up, do I have to have a romantic encounter to be happy?”

“I’m just worried about you, you know, the divorcee.”

“Shut up!”

“By the way, Boss, I just checked. The enrollment exam for Imperial City University is scheduled for next Saturday. If you really want to attend, you’d better sign up quickly.”

Da Ha brought up the important matter.

Gu Li nodded slightly, “Alright, as soon as I’m finished with ‘Charming Female Stars’ tomorrow, I’ll go.”

“Mhm. Oh right, there are spots for freshman through junior year, which one are you planning to enter?”

Da Ha couldn’t help but be curious.

Gu Li glanced at him, confidently saying:”Of course, freshman year.”

“But you’re 21, that’s kind of old?”

“Shut up!”

Doesn’t she look like she’s just 18?

Elsewhere, after Murong Qian checked out of the hotel, she followed Lu Cong to his private sea-view villa.

Once they got out of the car, Lu Cong led her into the house, saying, “The security here is top-notch, it’s very private, and there will be no paparazzi.” “Oh.”

Murong Qian replied absentmindedly, her eyes scanning the villa’s interior.

The bright colors were not the style that he would prefer, but rather closer to her taste. The more she looked, the more satisfied she felt.

However, as satisfied as she was with this place, it wasn’t her home. The only reason she had agreed to come here with Lu Cong was for the Murong family’s heirloom.

That was also the reason why she came to Hua Country.

Years ago, during the height of her passionate relationship with Lu Cong, she gave him a small jade pendant keychain as a token of their love. It was only until a few days ago that she realized it was the family heirloom of the Murong family, and rumor has it that it could open the treasure vault of the Murong family.

Of course, where this so-called vault is located is a mystery that no one has known in the past hundreds of years, and so far, it’s still considered a legend.

But legend or not, if her family ever discovered that she gave the family heirloom to a man who betrayed her, her end would be absolutely tragic.

Therefore, Murong Qian had put her flourishing career on hold, and traveled a long way to come here..
