Fang Xi was wearing a bohemian dress today. She had her long curly hair casually tied up and had light makeup on, looking elegant and casual. She was purely there as a spectator; she’d already bought the jewelry exhibited that she liked through inside channels—Yun Nan had asked for them from Xiang Yang. Therefore, she wasn’t one of the anxious buyers today; she wasn’t nervous at all. She was just leisurely admiring the items that weren’t for sale.

She was suddenly attracted by the conversation of a group of four or five women beside her.

“I heard Xiang Yang married a military man, so her husband can’t always be by her side; the poor thing!”

“What’s there to pity her for? With such wealthy in-laws, who needs a husband? I heard her in-laws treat her especially well!”

“Tsk! She might as well have married her mother-in-law. Her husband is virtually non-existent. Hahahaha!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. She married into the military!”

“Hmph! You guys still don’t know, do you? That Xiang Yang… Her family didn’t like her, so they sent her abroad to study. She was pretty wild during her school years and had hordes of boyfriends all over the place. Later on, she had enough fun and wanted to get married, but what decent man would marry a girl like her? However, she was lucky enough to meet the Shi family’s Eldest

Young Master—who was as innocent as snow—and effortlessly won his heart. She’s truly very lucky!”

“Hey, Shi Gao, how do you know so much about them? Are you friends with Xiang Yang or Shi Ke?”

“What, you don’t believe me? You can look it up. She studied at ‘Pei Ying Bilingual Primary School.’ The school expelled her because she had a fight with her classmates, so her family sent her overseas. She kept switching schools because she either failed her studies or got expelled due to relationship disputes. In short, she’s bad news!”

“Really?! Oh my, I really couldn’t tell. I thought she was one of those lofty and aloof types. I didn’t expect her to be such a dirty wh***. Now that you mention it, I don’t even want to buy the jewelry she designed anymore! How revolting!”

Having listened to the entire exchange, Fang Xi walked over leisurely and asked with a smile, “Miss, since you don’t want those jewelry pieces, can you give them to me? I can pay you extral”

The young ladies who were loudly whispering to each other raised their heads to look at her, and they all seemed a little awkward. Fang Xi smiled even more brightly at them.

“Don’t you find it revolting?” the woman whom Fang Xi had called out to asked in a low voice. “I heard that Xiang Yang has a promiscuous private life!”

Fang Xi smiled and narrowed her eyes as she stated, “There’s no evidence to suggest that Xiang Yang’s private life is as terrible as this lady says, but her works have won all the major awards in the country and abroad. I would think the organizing committees who gave her those awards probably aren’t so incompetent that they would give such a deplorable person so much honor.”

Everyone involuntarily nodded after hearing these words. The young lady who had wanted to give away the jewelry hurriedly said, “I was just joking; I’m not planning to give the jewelry away!”

Fang Xi smiled and looked at Miss Shi Gao, standing in the middle of the group. As her name would suggest, Miss Shi Gao was very tall. As for her appearance… Fang Xi would say she was only above average. It couldn’t be helped; Fang Xi’s life was surrounded by beauties. Even the less photogenic backstage staff members in their studio had better elegance, poise, and discipline than the woman before her.

Shi Gao looked disdainful as she coldly remarked, “You can buy those kinds of awards! Both the Xiang and Shi families can afford them; it’s only a paltry amount of money to them!”

Fang Xi nodded. “Hmm, you have a point!” Shi Gao scoffed derisively, and the girls’ expressions began to change once more.

Fang Xi unhurriedly said, “Then why don’t you all go buy an award and get a certificate? Miss Shi Gao, you seem quite well-informed, seeing as you were the one who brought it up. How about you help me get a couple of certificates and awards? Don’t worry, money isn’t a problem!”

The group of young ladies came to a realization: ‘She’s right! You can’t buy awards! Thars ridiculous! Shi Gao is simply spouting nonsense!

Shi Gao didn’t know who this woman was, but she hated her to the extreme. She angrily said to the people beside her, “Let’s go. Don’t talk to such an ignorant person.” And then, she huffily strode off.

Fang Xi crossed her arms and smiled at the women leaving hesitantly. “Can you get me a certificate or not, Miss Shi Gao?” she asked. “Tell me! I am indeed ignorant, but you can’t treat the people around you like fools, right?”

The young ladies paused before following Shi Gao. ‘ We’re being treated like fools by Shi Gao!’ they realized.

Fang Xi noticed the gap between Shi Gao and the rest of the girls as they walked away, smiled, and turned to walk in another direction. She heard a low laugh from somewhere beside her, and a tall figure came over. Fang Xi’s heart skipped a beat when she saw who it was..
