“Qiao Nuo, now that you’ve left this circle, sneaking into the rich district only serves to embarrass yourself and your father,” Ni Yue said, her tone sharp as she linked arms with Shen Fengye.
Earlier, while she was jogging down the street, Ni Yue had suddenly swerved her car in front of Qiao Nuo, nearly causing a collision.
Qiao Nuo rolled her eyes and tried to walk past them, not wanting to engage in a confrontation.
But Ni Yue wouldn’t let her go. She grabbed Qiao Nuo's arm and pulled out an invitation from her bag. “This is the wedding invitation for me and Fengye. You have to come!”
It was just like Ni Yue and Shen Fengye—truly relentless.
“Not interested. Is it because you don’t have a gown to wear to a high-class event? After all, your family is bankrupt now,” Ni Yue said, feigning disappointment as she attempted to retract the invitation. “You don’t have time anyway; you need to take care of your seriously ill father and work. It must be hard for you now that the company has changed hands. If I were you…”
“Bang—” Before Qiao Nuo could finish her sentence, a loud crash echoed in their ears.
All three turned to look at Ni Yue’s BMW, which had just been violently struck by a black Cayenne. The Cayenne appeared unscathed, but the rear of Ni Yue’s BMW was crumpled inward.
“Oh my God!” Ni Yue screamed. The car was brand new; she hadn’t even driven it a few times before it got hit!
Shen Fengye, who had remained silent while Ni Yue hurled insults at Qiao Nuo—whether out of inability to interject or a desire to see her humiliated—now busily comforted Ni Yue after the collision.
Qiao Nuo couldn’t help but smirk. How had she never noticed before that Shen Fengye had the potential to be a kept man?
"You, how could you drive like that? Didn't you see there's a car parked here?" Ni Yue shouted, pointing at the closed window of the Cayenne, and in her frustration, she even slapped the car window.
However, the person inside the car seemed to have no intention of getting out, leaving those outside waiting for half a minute.
Qiao Nuo felt a sense of satisfaction; someone finally needed to put Ni Yue in her place. Although Qiao Nuo wasn't quite sure why Ni Yue had the audacity to shout at her—was it because she had stolen her boyfriend?
She lost interest in the scene and wondered if it was time to head back to Jin Mansion. She wasn't sure if Ruan Shengyu had left yet.
Just as she was about to turn and walk away, the window of the Cayenne rolled down, and Qiao Nuo saw a familiar face.
Jin Chengyan.
Not only Qiao Nuo but also Ni Yue and Shen Fengye were startled.
The last incident with Ni Yue was still fresh in her memory, and now encountering Jin Chengyan again made her uneasy. Could it be that Qiao Nuo had some connection with him? Ni Yue felt unwilling but was at a loss for what to do.
Her expression stiffened as she didn't know whether to smile apologetically or feign innocence.
"Parking your car in the middle of the road and waiting for someone to crash into it? Miss Ni really has some nerve!" Jin Chengyan scoffed coldly, but his gaze shifted past Ni Yue to look at Qiao Nuo, his eyes narrowing with a hint of menace that made her too scared to move.
"I... I'm sorry! I'll move my car right away," Ni Yue stammered, seeking help from Shen Fengye. However, ever since the last incident, whether it was psychological or something else, she felt like nothing was going smoothly. It was best not to provoke Jin Chengyan; his lips were tightly pressed together, leaving her unable to utter a word.
"Is saying sorry enough? My car was damaged because of your reckless driving!"
Ni Yue was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears. "I'll... take the car to get it repaired..."
"What am I supposed to drive while you do that?" Jin Chengyan's tone was clearly confrontational.
Qiao Nuo watched the scene unfold from a distance, unable to suppress her laughter. Where had the lofty image of the noble gentleman gone? Jin Chengyan now appeared to be nothing more than a rogue deliberately making things difficult for a girl.
Yet, inexplicably, Qiao Nuo found herself thinking that Jin Chengyan, sitting in the car with a fierce expression and an aggressive demeanor, looked incredibly handsome!
