Just the jewelry that she was wearing was already worth a few million dollars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, the security guards could not afford to mess with this woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lady, if you accidentally stepped on this girl’s foot, you should probably apologize to her,” the security guard politely said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just because they said so? Well, I can say that the girl slipped her foot under my high heels. As a result, she was the one who almost made me trip,” the woman replied arrogantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How… How can you say that? You’re inverting right from wrong!” Hu Jiaojiao exclaimed angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You should be apologizing for your actions!” Hu Jiaojiao’s mother also exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expressions and actions of Hu Jiaojiao and her mother were incredibly similar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tch, ground beetles,” the woman mocked contemptuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you calling a ground beetle?!” Hu Jiaojiao’s mother asked angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m calling you a ground beetle,” the woman said as she sized up Hu Jiaojiao’s mother. “Even though what you’re wearing is expensive, you’re just piling expensive things together. You’re definitely a parvenu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s wrong with being a parvenu? I’m not stealing or something!” Hu Jiaojiao’s mother replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jiaojiao’s mother never denied her status as a parvenu. After all, they did make their fortune from demolition and real estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, you don’t steal anything. However, you don’t know what manners are. Instead, you continuously spoke through the launch event. You’re like a country bumpkin who entered the city for the first time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman’s words made Hu Jiaojiao’s mother incredibly angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… How…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jiaojiao hurriedly pulled her mother back: “Mother. Calm down, calm down. Don’t make a move. We will be at fault if you make a move.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the security guards saw the situation in front of them, they did not know what to do either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, through the intercom, they asked their manager to come and handle the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before their manager arrived, the woman’s husband came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a man in his thirties who wore a suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the typical dress code of an upper-class businessman in Beijing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Honey, what’s wrong? I’ve been waiting for you in the parking lot,” the man said to the woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was delayed by three flies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman’s words made the man pay attention to the three people in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jiaojiao angrily said: “Who are you calling flies? You intentionally did this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man’s eyes swept over Jian Yiling, Hu Jiaojiao, and Hu Jiaojiao’s mother before he turned around to speak to his wife: “Why would you argue with these people?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You think that I want to waste time on them? They’re the ones who are arguing with me. Now, they’re stopping me from leaving.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahh, forget it. Ignore them. Let’s go and eat. I made a reservation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he said this, the man was about to leave with the woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Jian Yiling stepped forward and blocked their way: “Apologize.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman sneered before she said: “See? They’re not letting me go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing this, the man’s face darkened: “What do you want? Do you want compensation?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the man took out a stack of hundred-dollar bills from his wallet and handed it to Jian Yiling: “Is this enough money to compensate for the shoes you’re wearing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Yiling did not even look at the money handed over by the man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jiaojiao also rushed forward and said: “We don’t want your money! We want you to apologize!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In your dreams!” the woman said as she rolled her eyes at Jian Yiling, Hu Jiaojiao, and Hu Jiaojiao’s mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know who you’re messing with?” the man said as he began to become impatient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the manager rushed over. Originally, he thought it was just an ordinary dispute so he was not in a hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>",661,"2026-06-06T02:09:07.122Z",1,"novelbin.me","be26d1c24b2c2e5f3f49c04e42d041cef6cb4e91f18ef458d198d2f9633ed4bf","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-922","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-920",1465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-sidekick-to-bigshot-cover.jpg"]
