Not a single person walking around nearby stepped forward to offer a word of help or kindness.

The absurd farce only came to an end when patrolling security guards heard the commotion and came to help.

When Hong Yanli left with her siblings, she made some harsh remarks.

They told Zhu Liangqi to pack her things and get out of their house immediately, and never to appear in front of them again.

If they appear once, they will beat them without mercy.

Zhu Liangqi, clutching her aching body, walked awkwardly into the city.

Every step he took was a testament to his hatred for Qiao Manman.

If it weren't for Qiao Manman, why would she have ended up in this situation today?

So what if Koch slept with me? I'll be able to break free from him sooner or later!

Now, we don't even have the most basic food and clothing!

Zhu Liangqi looked at the meager balance of about a hundred yuan on her phone and felt a wave of self-mockery.

Who could live a more pathetic life than her?

-

After walking for nearly three hours, Zhu Liangqi finally returned home.

Just as I was about to walk into the stairwell, a voice suddenly came from behind me.

"Congratulations to Liang Qi!"

Zhu Liangqi suddenly turned around and looked at the woman sitting in the car who was calling out to her.

The woman was very fat, but dressed very elegantly.

Especially the large pearl around her neck, which revealed her extravagance.

She beckoned to Zhu Liangqi, gesturing for him to come over.

Zhu Liangqi withdrew her hand from her abdomen, walked to the back window, and moved her dry lips to ask, "Were you calling me?"

The woman shifted to the side, saying, "Come sit down and let's talk."

Zhu Liangqi glanced at his filthy body, swallowed hard, and said, "I'm very dirty."

"It's nothing, come in and talk."

Zhu Liangqi hesitated for a few seconds before choosing to sit in the woman's Panamera.

The warm air conditioning made Zhu Liangqi feel much more comfortable. She kept her distance from the plump woman and asked softly, "And you are?"

The fat woman took a cigarette and put it between her lips. Seeing this, the driver opened the sunroof.

The woman lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then introduced herself: "I am Qiao Manman's aunt, Qiao Min."

Upon hearing that the person was related to Qiao Manman, Zhu Liangqi's face turned cold.

"I've had a falling out with Qiao Manman, so I don't want any contact with anyone around her or her family!"

After saying that, Zhu Liangqi was about to push open the car door and get out.

Qiao Min continued puffing on her cigarette, speaking slowly and deliberately, "What if I asked you to deal with Qiao Manman?"

Zhu Liangqi's hand suddenly stopped on the doorknob. Her eyelids trembled slightly, and she turned around to ask, "What do you mean?"

"The literal meaning."

Qiao Min flicked her cigarette butt: "If you can do it, I'll help you rent an apartment, and I'll transfer 10,000 yuan to your account every month as living expenses."

Zhu Liangqi's hands gradually clenched into fists: "How did you know I lack these things?"

Qiao Min glanced at her sideways: "I'm a company leader, so finding out about you would be a piece of cake for me, wouldn't it?"

With a place to stay and 10,000 yuan a month, Zhu Liangqi was really tempted.

But if she asked herself honestly, Qiao Manman hadn't done anything bad to herself.

If I were to do something to hurt Qiao Manman because of this, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

Just as Zhu Liangqi was about to decline, Qiao Min suddenly handed him a business card.

"No need to rush to answer. Just call me when you've figured it out."

A calculating smile appeared on Qiao Min's round face: "I believe that you will come to find me within a week."

Zhu Liangqi stared at the business card without taking it, while Qiao Min stuffed the business card into Zhu Liangqi's pocket.

I'll wait for your message.

Zhu Liangqi hurriedly looked away, opened the car door, and got out of the car.

Watching the car drive away, Zhu Liangqi took out Qiao Min's business card from his pocket.

Just as I was about to crumple it up and throw it away, my phone suddenly rang in my pocket.

An unfamiliar number appeared on the phone screen, and Zhu Liangqi answered it without thinking much about it.

"Holy crap, that bitch actually answered the phone!"

"Can you please get out of our school? The thought of being in the same school as someone like you makes me sick!"

"I thought you were the one being bullied, but it turns out you were the one who seduced your cousin!"

"You've really made us waste our time by helping you insult people online!"

"What the hell is this plot twist? It's disgusting!"

"Get out! Get out of our school!"

Hearing the insults coming from the phone, emanating from both men and women, Zhu Liangqi's face gradually turned pale.

The situation online was not like this before she left the funeral home.

Why has the wind suddenly changed direction?

Zhu Liangqi's hands trembled as she hung up the phone several times before finally disconnecting.

Just as I was about to go online to check the situation, another unknown number dialed in.

It hangs up, then comes back in; it hangs up, then comes back in...

The repeated torment, like a death knell, drove Zhu Liangqi to the brink of collapse.

Trembling, she switched to airplane mode, glanced around, turned and ran to the stairwell behind her, frantically pressing the elevator buttons.

When they reached the top floor, Zhu Liangqi was about to step out of the elevator when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

All her personal belongings had been thrown out and piled up in a corner, with her suitcase tossed on top of them.

Zhu Liangqi walked stiffly out of the elevator, staring absently at her mountain of belongings.

After a long while, she suddenly let out a low laugh.

"How... ridiculous..."

Tears rolled down Zhu Liangqi's cheeks as she slowly bent down and pulled the suitcase over.

Tears kept dripping onto the clothes she had just tidied up. Zhu Liangqi collapsed to the ground, hugging her knees and sobbing through gritted teeth.

-

After washing up and lying down, Qiao Manman immediately checked the situation online.

When she saw the shift in public opinion online, Qiao Manman froze on the spot.

At first, everyone was on Zhu Liangqi's side, scolding her aunt and cousin, but now they're all cursing Zhu Liangqi.

All the unimaginable words were used to describe Zhu Liangqi alone.

Qiao Manman couldn't imagine what kind of treatment Zhu Liangqi would receive if she went to school tomorrow.

Ultimately...

It was her impulsiveness and her help that led to Zhu Liangqi's current predicament.

But then again, who was responsible for posting Zhu Liangqi's story online?

As Qiao Manman was thinking, Shen Que called.

After pressing the call button, Shen Que said anxiously, "Manman, have you seen the news online?"

"I saw it."

Qiao Manman walked to the sofa in a sullen tone and dried her wet hair.

"Zhu Liangqi has encountered such a big problem, we need to find a way to help her. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Upon hearing Shen Que's words, the term "helpful citizen" suddenly popped into Qiao Manman's mind.

Even though they weren't very familiar with Shen Que, he was always willing to lend a helping hand.

Qiao Manman: "Can you find out who posted this about Liang Qi?"

"As long as the account is linked to a real name, technically skilled people can find out the other party's information, but it will take some time."

"But I think the most important issue is not that, but rather that there are two voices on the internet now."

"You should know this, right?"

Qiao Manman gave a weary "hmm".

She tucked her hair into a hair drying cap: "I know the details of Liang Qi's situation, and it was because of me that her affair was completely exposed."

"ah??"

Faced with Shen Que's confusion, Qiao Manman explained the situation to him from beginning to end.

She also recounted the situation where Zhu Liangqi believed that she had meant well but did something wrong.

After hearing these words, Shen Que remained silent for a long time on the other end of the phone.

After waiting a long time for him to speak, Qiao Manman could only ask in return, "If this happened to you, what would you do?"

Shen Que pondered for a moment and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't do anything. I tried to help as a friend, but I was treated like a villain. If I help her again, I might still not do what she wants."

Shen Que's analysis is not without merit.

Qiao Manman murmured, "So, not helping is the best option, right?"

"Did you ask Zhu Liangqi?"

Shen Que had already changed his address from "Liang Qi" to "Zhu Liang Qi".

It seems he has already made his dissatisfaction with Zhu Liangqi public, but he hasn't said it out loud because of the relationship between Qiao Manman and Zhu Liangqi.

"She came to me and said that from now on we would live our own lives and not interfere with each other. But before she said that, there hadn't been any news about her online."

Shen Que remained silent for a moment, then asked, "Are you free now?"

Qiao Manman: "What's wrong?"

Shen Que: "Want to grab a late-night snack? We can also talk about this."

Qiao Manman glanced at the time; it was almost ten o'clock.

After much deliberation, she agreed to Shen Que's request and sent him her home's location.

"Jianlin Courtyard?!" Shen Que exclaimed in shock, "You live in Jianlin Courtyard too? Which building are you in?"

Qiao Manman was also taken aback: "Do you also live in Jianlin Courtyard?"

"Yes!" Shen Que's tone became excited: "I'm in Building 7, where are you?"

Qiao Manman: "Eleven."

"I'm coming right now! Come downstairs and wait for me in ten minutes!"

"Twenty minutes, I'll blow-dry my hair and change my clothes."

"it is good."

After getting ready, Qiao Manman changed her clothes and went downstairs to prepare to leave.

Qiao Qiqi, who was sitting downstairs and about to go upstairs, bumped right into Qiao Manman.

Seeing Qiao Manman dressed neatly, Qiao Qiqi asked in surprise, "Are you going out, sister?"

Qiao Manman gave a faint "hmm": "Something came up."

Qiao Qiqi followed behind Qiao Manman, tentatively trying to find a topic to talk about: "Sister, it's not safe outside at night, how about we bring a bodyguard?"

Qiao Manman changed her shoes and casually replied, "I have a classmate who lives in the same neighborhood as me. He will come to pick me up, so there won't be any safety concerns. You should go upstairs and rest."

Qiao Qiqi raised an eyebrow and hurried upstairs before Qiao Manman left.

Just as Qiao Manman reached the villa entrance, Qiao Qiqi walked to the window and looked out.

Seeing Qiao Manman get into a black Cayenne, Qiao Qiqi quietly lowered the curtains.

Qiao Manman, who did you go out with so late?

Meanwhile, at the Jiang family...

Tong Yan personally prepared some food and brought it to the Jiang family, placing it in front of Jiang Tingyan's desk.

"Ayan, Assistant Chen said you didn't eat tonight, so I made some food for you to try."
