d slightly, then cracked open the car window a bit and lit a cigarette, taking a slow drag...The interior was dimly lit, making his features appear more defined.A'n has always cared about appearances,...Wen Man lost her job, she didn't want to worry Aunt Ruan, so she didn't tell her for now.

She sat alone on a bench in the park, lost in thought.

The sun was shining, but Wen Man felt cold.

She tallied up the household finances, and a hefty bill from Jiang Ming's law firm was looming, plus her father needed some financial assistance. There wasn't much left in the family coffers.

Wen Man gently pulled out a thin chain from her neck. A pale pink diamond was attached to it.

Wen Man gently stroked it for a long time, but finally gritted her teeth and found a pawnshop. The manager looked at it for a long time and gave a price: "If it's live pawn, I can only give 60,000 yuan, but if it's dead pawn, I can give more, how about 200,000 yuan"

That pink diamond is worth at least half a million, but Wen Man can't afford it.

She needs money!

Wen Man smiled wryly: "Die then!"

She got a check for 200,000 and added some money from home to pay at Jiang Ming's office.

Just then, Bai Wei's phone call came.

Bai Wei already knew about Wen Man losing her job from others. She said, "Where are you Come over, I'll treat you to a meal."

Wen Man said she couldn't go home, so she agreed.

Bai Wei invited her to eat hot pot. In the steaming restaurant, Bai Wei rolled meat into the spicy pot while angrily scolding: "That bitch Ding Cheng, I never liked her since university! She hooks up with every successful man who has any potential. Back then when you were with Gu Changqing, she tried to seduce him several times."

Wen Man was stunned for a moment before giving a faint smile: "Now she has gotten her wish."

She told Bai Wei what Ding Cheng had said.

Bai Wei was stunned. When she came to her senses, she couldn't help but curse: "Damn it! She's really something. Gu Changqing is such a jerk! These two scumbags are a perfect match."

She was afraid that Wen Man would be unhappy, so she coaxed: "Don't take it to heart! Anyway, Gu Changqing is Huo Mingzhu's man now. Whether he's clean or not won't affect us."

Wen Man suddenly remembered what Huo Shaoting had said, that Huo Mingzhu had once committed suicide for Gu Changqing... Gu Changqing's messy affairs, Huo Shaoting might not know, but he just pretended not to!

She spaced out, Bai Wei nudged her: "Don't cry over this scumbag."

Wen Man shook her head. "No."

Bai Wei sighed: "That's true! Money is more important than a man any day."

She worried that Wen Man wouldn't have enough money, and took out another bank card... Wen Man refused. She softly said, "I don't need it for now."

Bai Wei didn't believe it.

Wen Man put a piece of meat in her bowl and said softly, “I sold the necklace.”

Bai Wei was stunned.

It took her a long time to speak, her voice trembling: “You naughty child, why didn’t you discuss this with me This is the only thing your aunt left for you, something you've always kept close.”

Wen Man patted her hand, just about to comfort her, when the phone on the table rang.

It's the part-time restaurant manager calling.

Wen Man answered the call and after listening for a few moments, she slowly put it down and told Bai Wei: "I was fired from the restaurant."

Bai Wei was furious.

She said, “It’s Gu Changqing again! How can he be so persistent Wen Man, come on, let's go find him. I have to get justice for you! This wretch cheated you of four years of love, and now she wants to kill you”

Wen Man grabbed Bai Wei.

She begged Bai Wei not to go, because Wen Man knew that Gu Changqing was doing all this to pressure her, to make her compromise and be his mistress!

Bai Wei burst into tears: “How could Gu Changqing treat you like this! Not only is he engaged, but he’s also having an affair with that bitch Ding Cheng! He’s filthy and disgusting, how dare he ask you to return to him”looked at his phone with a thoughtful expression. Anran said softly, "That must have stung."Huo Yunsi put his phone on the bedside table, leaned against the headboard, and looked down at her: "Feeling...
