Chapter 776

Seeing that the person before her spoke as if very familiar with Qiao Muting, she offered an explanation, "This car still belongs to him; it wasn't given to me."

"It wasn't given to you?" Xu Zihan's expression improved slightly.

Seeing that Xu Zihan was still standing in front of the car door, Shu Xia reminded her again, "Move aside."

Xu Zihan's expression turned unpleasant again, "When did you get together with Qiao Muting?"

"Is it necessary for me to tell you?" Shu Xia's tone also turned cold.

"My relationship with Qiao Muting..." Xu Zihan didn't finish her sentence, stopping halfway, her already fair face turning even paler, "We were high school classmates."

Shu Xia suddenly thought of what Hua Qian had said to her before, that Qiao Muting had a "white moonlight."

That white moonlight was abroad.

If it weren't for her appearance, Qiao Muting and the white moonlight would be together, and the reason Qiao Muting had never had a woman by his side was that he was waiting for the white moonlight.

Could the person in front of her be Qiao Muting's white moonlight?

Seeing that Shu Xia didn't speak, Xu Zihan eased her expression; she didn't want to reveal too much emotion in front of a vain girl like Shu Xia, as if she cared very much about Qiao Muting.

"In the past two days, people in our alumni group have been talking about you and him, saying that you are clinging to him. You are very beautiful; you could actually enter the entertainment industry. You should be able to make a name for yourself there. Would you like to try entering the entertainment industry? I can recommend you to sign with a film and television company, and I will also have them give you resources to get you to the top as quickly as possible," Xu Zihan dangled the bait.

Many girls now want to be internet celebrities to make money; it's not that they don't want to be stars, but there is a threshold to being a star, and it's not just about signing with a company.

Shu Xia raised an eyebrow, and after hearing Xu Zihan out, she felt like laughing, "Thank you, I have a job."

"A job?" Xu Zihan frowned with a cold face, "Accompanying Qiao Muting every day? Being a man's accessory won't last long. I think... he should let you leave very soon. As a woman, I'm doing this for your own good; you might as well consider it carefully."

After her words fell, she caught sight of Shu Xia's injured hand and bandaged forehead, "Did you make Qiao Muting unhappy, and he hit you?"

Or could it be...

That things got too rough in bed?

Xu Zihan took a deep breath, attempting to calm the jealousy constantly churning in her chest.

Shu Xia was amused by Xu Zihan's wild imagination, "He doesn't have a tendency toward violence."

Having said that, she opened the car door.

"Wait!" Xu Zihan blocked Shu Xia.

Looking at the hand stretched out in front of her, Shu Xia felt her patience vanish completely.

"Don't drive this car anymore. This is a car I gave him; I don't feel comfortable with you driving it. You should take a taxi home; I'll have someone send this car to Xinghai Villa," Xu Zihan's tone remained high and mighty.

She didn't hide the disdain in her tone.

In the eyes of people like them, Shu Xia was just a girl as ordinary as could be; only people at the bottom would use their beauty to become a commodity in the eyes of men.

A commodity that could be measured by money had no value in their eyes.

Shu Xia was amused, "You..."

Before she could finish, a man's slightly deep voice came from the side, "Miss Shu."

The next second, he added, "Xu Zihan?"

Shu Xia looked over; it was Li Yuan.

Clearly, Li Yuan also knew Xu Zihan.

Xu Zihan's slightly furrowed brows smoothed out when she saw Li Yuan, and she returned to her usual cold, arrogant self, smiling in response, "What a coincidence. I haven't seen you in years; you're still the same as before."

Li Yuan nodded with a faint smile, "Indeed, it has been years."

Then he looked at Shu Xia again, "My younger sister is at the restaurant diagonally across the street, and I happen to be heading there. Would Miss Shu like to join us?"

A clearly different attitude.

When facing Xu Zihan, it was perfunctory hypocrisy—the kind of polite hypocrisy that people like them were accustomed to.
