Cao Meihua’s expression flickered, turning strange. Su Wen’s family was not well-off. In fact, they were very poor. It was not as Deputy Director Wei had guessed, but she kept her thoughts to herself for the moment.

It was already outside her expectations that Su Wen could play the piano.

Cao Meihua held the bag, flipping it over to inspect it in greater detail. If she could have opened Su Wen’s bag, she would, even if she had to do it without gaining the latter’s permission. She wanted to see what it looked like on the inside!

“It’s pretty light. Though it isn’t too big, it can probably fit quite a few things inside.” Cao Meihua said, having made as fair an evaluation as she could.

“Let me have a look.”

Deputy Director Wei accepted the bag, weighing it in her hands. Having had the opportunity to hold the bag properly, Deputy Director Wei found herself rather reluctant to put it down. “Later, could you ask your friend where she bought this bag? Do you think she’d mind introducing the retailer to me?” Deputy

Director Wei was willing to pay a month’s salary if she could get a bag like Su Wen’s.

“No problem!” Cao Meihua readily agreed. She, too, wanted a similar bag.

“Deputy Director Cao, I need your help making introductions too.” A voice suddenly sounded behind them.

The two women turned and realized several people were crowding around them. The leader was a beautiful woman. She was the dancer they had invited from the Provincial Art Troupe. Her name was Zhang Miao.

Rumor had it that she had an impressive background and only appeared because Cao Meihua invited her. Zhang Miao was someone Cao Meihua hoped to befriend. A friendship with her would prove beneficial to her future development.

“I will, don’t worry.” Cao Meihua agreed in a heartbeat.

Deputy Director Wei was green with envy but told herself it was also an opportunity.

Zhang Miao had been watching from the sidelines for a while, observing how Yang Yue deliberately made things difficult for Cao Meihua. While she had not intervened, it did not mean she was unaware. As things progressed, her impression of Cao Meihua grew, and she began to look down on Yang Yue.

She was unfamiliar with Yang Yue but had heard how she often used her relationship with her uncle’s family to oppress others. To think she would dare bug him on such an occasion as she did that day! Clearly, she did not know what was good for her, thinking she had to be served hand and foot like some member of royalty.

Her uncle’s family was never flashy, so for her to flaunt their influence in such a manner was an insult she could not disregard.

However, now that she had taken an interest in the bag Cao Meihua held, going as far as to ask for help buying a similar bag, Zhang Miao knew she ought to lend the former a helping if she could. It would not do for others to think she took advantage of others. “Yang Yue hasn’t left, has she? A woman like her is an eyesore. Chase her away!”

Zhang Miao smiled and pointed at Yang Yue, who was still throwing a tantrum.

“That’s great!” Cao Meihua had almost been killed by Yang Yue earlier that day. She wanted to have her leave, but Yang Yue refused. Instead, Yang Yue continued making a nuisance of herself, offending everyone around her. Now that Zhan Miao had spoken, Cao Meihua called someone to have Yang Yue removed from the venue.

Even if Yang Yue regretted her actions, she could not show it. All she had wanted to do was make things difficult for Cao Meihua; it was not as if she was unwilling to perform on stage. While making things difficult for Cao Meihua was a plus, being unable to perform on stage far outweighed any joy she got from tormenting her.

Now, not only had she not made things difficult for Cao Meihua, but she had also caused herself to be removed from the premises.

In the future, no other unit would dare to hire Yang Yue. Yang Yue paled, almost collapsing on the ground when she was forcefully dragged away. She hated Su Wen for ruining her plans. How dare a small-time country-bumpkin go against her? When she returned to the provincial capital and found her aunt, she would tell Su Wen what suffering meant.

Su Wen bowed gracefully and stepped off the stage after her performance. No sooner had she done so than she was met with Cao Meihua’s sparkling eyes. “What is it?” Su Wen asked.

“Su Wen! Call me Sister Cao in the future.” Cao Meihua pulled Su Wen along enthusiastically. “You’ve been a great help today. I owe you one..”
