The younger sister pretends to be hypnotized, and her older brother gets addicted.

Everyone was taken aback.

Qiao Wei, in particular, reacted strongly.

"How could that be? Didn't you say there's only one in the whole country?"

The vice principal frowned as well. "Exactly. How could a poor recent graduate like her afford a bag like that?"

The saleswoman smiled and said, "I've been in this industry for ten years, and I can confirm that this is indeed a genuine bag from us."

The saleswoman stepped forward and said in a friendly manner, "It's a pity about the scratches, but you can come to our store to replace the hardware."

Ruan Yang is a typical person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force.

She waved her hand, "...No need, it's just a scratch I got when I went through security on the subway."

The saleswoman's eyes widened.

Even though she had seen a lot, she was still shocked by those words.

The entire room fell into a deathly silence.

Limited edition Hermès bag, going through subway security?

How could these two words appear in the same sentence?

His colleagues were so shocked their eyes almost popped out.

Who would have thought that Ms. Ruan, who usually keeps a low profile and has a gentle temperament, is actually a wealthy heiress?

Someone, being inquisitive, asked the sales assistant how much the bag cost.

The sales assistant said, "Not counting the additional purchases, it should be around 10 euros."

One hundred thousand... Euro?

Everyone was shocked!

The vice principal looked grim and muttered, "So young, who knows where the money comes from... It's so easy for women to make money."

At this moment, some parents came to drop off their children. Hearing the discussion, they couldn't help but look at Ruan Yang with strange eyes.

Ruan Yang could no longer hold back.

She walked up to the vice principal. "You know so much, is it because you've sold your asses? You've made quite a few 'asks' since becoming the vice principal of this school, haven't you?"

The vice-principal's face immediately turned green. "What did you say?"

Ruan Yang smacked her lips, "A person should stand in the light, but not stand here in the light, much less stand here naked. I feel disgusted working with a leader like you who fabricates pornographic rumors."

Everyone: "!!!"

No one expected that Ruan Yang, who had acted like a lamb these past few days, would have such a sharp tongue.

Ruan Yang added, "Yesterday I covered Qiao Wei's class, so I worked three days in total. You have to pay me."

The vice principal sneered, "You haven't even passed your probation period, and you still want a salary?"

"Then I'll hire a lawyer to sue you."

"Teacher Ruan, why make such a fuss over three days' wages?" Qiao Wei took out two bills and handed them to Ruan Yang.

Her eyes were filled with pity. "I remember you took the subway to your interview. Why did you rent such an expensive bag just to make a good impression? Look, it's scratched, and you'll have to pay a lot for it. I'll pay for it; you can take it."

Ruan Yang: "..."

She got even angrier.

They were clearly trying to protect their legitimate rights, but were treated as making trouble unreasonably.

It seems she doesn't get along with work.

I've worked for two companies, and both experiences were unpleasant.

It seems she's better suited to getting something for nothing and just sitting around waiting for money.

Previously, whenever Ruan Yang felt wronged, she would go to Jiang Yanci.

But now she's more sensible. Her older brother is already very busy with work, and she shouldn't bother him with such trivial matters.

Ruan Yang bluffed, saying to the vice principal, "You know lawyer He Renjie, right? He's a friend of my brother. If you don't pay me, I'll hire him to help me with this case."

Qiao Wei chuckled.

"Ms. Ruan, you must be joking. Attorney He is a well-known top-tier partner in the legal profession. He's been on TV shows and is a star lawyer in the legal world. My sister is Attorney He's student, and she handles cases worth hundreds of millions. Even if you don't know any other lawyers, you can't make up something this outrageous!"

The vice principal chimed in with a sarcastic remark, "Ruan Yang, you'd better leave now! So many parents are watching! You've told three lies in one sentence; won't that damage Xingcan's reputation?"

"Vice Principal, I suggest you give Yangyang her salary, otherwise she really can't hire He Renjie."

It was Meng Ling who spoke.

She arrived late today, and as soon as she entered, she heard Ruan Yang say she was going to resign.

Although she didn't know what had happened, she blindly sided with her junior.

The vice principal sneered, "She thinks she can hire a top lawyer like He?"

"Ruan Yang, if you're so capable, call him now. If Lawyer He can really come, I'll give you my vice principal position! If you can't get him to come, then you'll apologize to me in front of everyone."

Ruan Yang clenched her fists.

Even though He Lu is my brother's close friend despite the age difference, how could I trouble him with such a small matter of a few hundred dollars?

Ruan Yang lowered her eyes, conflicted.

To outsiders, this appeared as a sign of guilt.

But Meng Ling still believed in Ruan Yang.

She whispered to the vice principal, "Vice Principal, just pay Yangyang her wages for the past few days. Otherwise, if Lawyer He really comes, not only you, but our school will be skinned alive."

The vice principal sneered, "Her? Her?"

"Yes, because of her."

A steady voice rang out.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man walk in through the door.

The man was over forty years old, with a refined appearance, wearing a sharp suit, and accompanied by an assistant. He had the aura of a high-ranking person in a TV drama.

Exclamations erupted in the hall.

"Attorney He?"

"Is Lawyer He really here?"

"Does Ruan Yang really know Attorney He? But didn't Qiao Wei say that she rented this bag and was just putting on a show?"

A saleswoman who had witnessed the whole thing couldn't help but chime in, "No one would rent out a bag worth millions like that."

Everyone: "...That makes sense."

He Renjie was used to being watched. He walked up to the vice principal in his leather shoes, looking around, and extended his hand.

"Hello, I am Ms. Ruan Yang's lawyer, He Renjie."

The vice principal's legs went weak.

This...this!

Who would have thought that a mere intern teacher could actually invite a renowned lawyer?

Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?

What exactly is Ruan Yang's background?

Ruan Yang, who was standing nearby, saw He Renjie and widened her eyes in surprise.

"Uncle He, what brings you here?"

He Renjie tilted his head, his tone familiar: "You think your brother doesn't know you've been secretly looking for a job?"

Ruan Yang was stunned.

Next, He Renjie not only demanded the return of Ruan Yang's three days' wages, but also obtained audio evidence of the vice principal's slander of Ruan Yang, and prepared to formally sue him.

The vice principal turned pale with fright and begged Ruan Yang to let him go.

But Ruan Yang couldn't hear it clearly.

All I can think about is—

Does her brother know the real reason she left the theater troupe last time?

He Renjie was like a gust of wind, coming and going.

After receiving his wages, Ruan Yang did not linger.

There was one more thing she needed to confirm.

Through the glass doors, everyone could clearly see Ruan Yang driving away in that red Porsche.

The colleagues gasped.

Qiao Wei, whose limelight had been stolen, showed a hint of resentment in her eyes.

At that moment, the phone vibrated.

It's news from Huo Shen.

[Huo Shen]: Teacher Little Rose, it's my birthday this Sunday. I'm having a get-together with friends at Half Hill Manor. I'd like to introduce you to my childhood friend and his sister. Would you do me the honor of coming?

Qiao Wei paused, her breath catching in her throat.

Mid-Levels Estate is the most luxurious place in Beijing and Hong Kong.

Fearing that Huo Shen might change his mind, she immediately replied with an "okay".

After replying to the message, she couldn't help but smile.

What's so special about Ruan Yang's Porsche?

Once I marry Huo Shen, I'll be a thousand times more glamorous than Ruan Yang!

Qiao Wei's heart was pounding as she eagerly awaited Sunday.
