Xiao Qian made her stance clear, so Yu Liumei had no choice but to back down.
With one hand in her pocket, Xiao Qianâs gaze scanned the faces of those with ulterior motives one by one.
These people might not realize that, in Xiao Qianâs eyes, their well-concealed expressions were clearly exposed. Suppressing her disdain, Xiao Qian extended her hand with an impeccable expression to Lu Xiaocha, who hurriedly shook her hand, feeling a cold touch in Xiao Qianâs palm.
âXiao Cha, you wonât do anything to betray me, right?â Xiao Qianâs acting skills even fooled Shi Touyu.
She almost thought that she could really let bygones be bygones.
âYes, Boss Qian, I really didnât know anything. We are all in the same group, and I just came over when they said they wanted to eat. I never thought they would do thisâ¦â
With her tearful expression and innocent voice, she quickly trampled on her teammates with a few words and portrayed herself as completely innocent, completely severing her relationship with them.
Xiao Qian laughed inwardly, but her face remained unchanged as usual. She stretched out her free hand and patted Lu Xiaochaâs hand.
âItâs all a misunderstanding. I understand, and it has nothing to do with you.â

âBoss Qian, youâre so kind to meâ¦â Wiping her tears, Lu Xiaocha hurried to stand on Xiao Qianâs side, while Shi Touyu and Yu Liumei retreated in unison, not wanting to stand with such a two-faced person.
Xiao Qian comforted Lu Xiaocha and turned to La Juhua and her boyfriend with a completely different expression.
âI personally dislike making enemies, but I am not afraid of trouble either. If you are willing to let todayâs matter end here, just stay away from me when you see me in school in the future. If youâre not convinced, you can still provoke me anytime â provided that you can pay the price for your actions!â
Her powerful words made a strong impression. Shi Tou had seen Boss Qianâs domineering side before, so he was not surprised by her sudden aura.
It was Yu Liumeiâs first time witnessing Xiao Qianâs power. Although she still looked gentle and spoke softly like a sister-in-law, each of her words carried unquestionable authority, making it clear that she was a person of her word.
It was not an aura created through fighting and killing, but Xiao Qianâs simple words had a powerful deterrent effect, preventing these people from acting recklessly, and forcing them to leave in disgrace.
âBoss Qian, Iâm so glad you saw the truth today. I was afraid you would misunderstand me. Actually, I donât mind being beaten up, but losing your friendship is what scares meâ¦â
Lu Xiaocha spoke with such deep emotion, but Xiao Qian just patted her shoulder with an inscrutable look in her eyes.
âDistance tests a horseâs stamina, and time will reveal a personâs heart. I believe you wonât let me down.â
Shi Touyu thought to himself â Boss Qian meant that time would reveal a bitchâs heart?
After saying this, she led her two friends away, leaving Lu Xiaocha standing there, still recovering from the shock and patting her chest, narrowly avoiding being beaten.
It seems that the rumors circulating at school were true.
Donât mess with the goddess Xiao Qian, or you will die in a rhythmic way.
There was a rumor that the son of an off-campus tycoon, incited by someone, proclaimed that there was such a special Goddess in their school and he wanted to invite Xiao Qian to dinner, or else he would break her arm.
As a result, Xiao Qian had her usual meals and drinks for three days, and the son of the off-campus tycoon was found in the emergency room of the hospital with a broken arm. He was simply unlucky to have made idle threats to Xiao Qian while Xiao Qiang was visiting. Though Xiao Qiang vowed he didnât use his full strength, how was it his fault that the guy had weak bones?
Many versions of why one should not mess with Xiao Qian were circulated at school. Although she excelled academically and looked even better, there were no suitors around her for these years. To be precise, no one dared to chase her, for they said she was the woman of some big shot.
Lu Xiaocha used to think that these were just rumors. Being in the same group as Xiao Qian, she thought that although Xiao Qian didnât like to get close to people, she wasnât as wicked as the rumors claimed. Todayâs encounter, however, showed that there was some truth to the rumors.
Wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, she watched through the glass window as Xiao Qian drove away with her friends, a complex mixture of emotions flashing through her eyes.
Why did heaven bestow all the good things upon Chen Xiaoqian?
As she stepped outside, Xiao Qian took the wet wipe that Shi Tou handed to her and carefully wiped the hand that had grasped Lu Xiaochaâs. She wiped every finger meticulously.
There was a virus called hypocrisy, which, once infected, might not be fatal, but would make people sick from the inside out.
Xiao Qian threw the wipes used to clean her hand into the trash bin and Shi Touyu asked puzzledly.
âBoss Qian, what are you doing? You know she is not a good person, why bother putting on an act for her?â
Xiao Qian tapped her on the forehead, âSilly girl, let Boss Qian teach you a lesson. In the adult world, there is no right or wrong, only gain and loss. We who do not live in a glass house, how can we only have pleasing people around us?â
In this world, there are many different types of people. When it comes to analyzing them using psychological theories, there arenât that many different kinds. Thus, encountering two-faced people like these is inevitable.
Today thereâs Lu Xiaocha, tomorrow there might be Iron Xiaocha, Copper Xiaocha, and all kinds of Xaochas.
âWhy did you let her off the hook and only go after those two?â
âBecause I still have use for Lu Xiaocha, but those two are not worth mentioning.â
Having had management experience and met all sorts of people, Xiao Qian was least afraid of encountering those who, like La Juhua, could only make noise but cause little trouble. Such people had small minds and poor self-control, and could be easily pacified with a little flattery.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, dealing with someone like Lu Xiaocha would take more effort, because she was good at hiding her emotions and had a dark heart, so it was easy to be tricked by her.
Yet, this two-faced and scheming personality was exactly what Xiao Qian needed.
âWhat kind of messy people have you been dealing with?â Shi Touyu followed Xiao Qian to her car, muttering under her breath.
âYouâre no longer a naïve girl from a landlordâs family. How can you still use simple black-and-white theories to measure a personâs value? Even the most disgusting person can be useful to me if placed in the right position. When you go to Qiang City to find your elder brother in the future, I canât always be with you, so you need to be more careful about these things â hey, donât bring any bad luck with you!â
Seeing her crying, Xiao Qian hurriedly took out a hand to wipe Shi Touyuâs tears.
âBoss Qian, I donât want to be separated from youâ¦â They had been together for so long, and their feelings had grown deep. Shi Touyu felt sad thinking about parting ways after graduation.
âNothing lasts forever in this world. So what I have to do is to prolong my control of feasts as much as possibleâ¦â Xiao Qian comforted Shi Touyu while plotting her next move in her mind.
She didnât want to go with some sick authority like Professor Qi, as her teacher suggested. Lu Xiaochaâs appearance just provided Xiao Qian with an opportunity to use her for her own purposes. She hoped that Lu Xiaocha would live up to her âexpectationsâ and help her achieve her goals.
