“A banquet?”

Upon hearing Murong Yumeng’s suggestion, Zhou Cui’an’s eyes brightened. However, soon after, she seemed to reconsider and her expression dimmed. She timidly replied, “Maybe not. It might not be suitable for me to attend such an occasion. Senior Sister Murong, thank you for the invitation! But I think I’ll pass.”

Banquets like these were the world of the wealthy. For an ordinary girl like her to fit in would be quite challenging. Especially considering Senior Sister Murongg’s status as a member of the Murong family, the events she attended were bound to be high-class. It would likely be uncomfortable for her to attend.

“Why wouldn’t it be suitable?” Murong Yumeng’s lips curled into a smile as she continued to persuade, “It’s not a very formal gathering, just friends getting together to chat. We’re all young people; it’ll be easy for everyone to get along.”

Although Zhou Cui’an was tempted, her rational side told her to decline.

“Senior Sister Murongg, I appreciate your kindness, but I’ll pass,” Zhou Cui’an said, shaking her head with less conviction. “I’m afraid I’ll embarrass you.”

“Why would you think that?” Murong Yumeng persisted, “You have to believe in yourself. You got into Capital University; you’re definitely outstanding. Besides, you’re alone during the New Year. Why not come out and meet new friends? I’m sure you want to stay in the capital after graduation! If that’s the case, making more friends will be beneficial. More friends mean more opportunities! Alright, it’s settled then. If you insist on refusing, then you’ll be looking down on my friends.”

“How could I?” Zhou Cui’an responded anxiously, eventually agreeing, “Alright! Senior Sister Murongg, I’ll see you then.”

Though it seemed she had reluctantly agreed, Zhou Cui’an’s eyes sparkled.

She never expected to receive such a pleasant surprise when she sought Murong Yumeng’s help earlier. Just six months in the capital, and she already had the chance to mingle with the elite families. It felt surreal. She couldn’t help but recall a joke from her days working at a luxury store, where a colleague suggested she befriended Ye Leng’an. Perhaps she could introduce her to some wealthy young gentlemen, and then she could ascend to the top in one fell swoop.

At that time, she was very excited, but her relationship with Ye Leng’an was never good, so her wish was never fulfilled. Later on, she learned about Ye Leng’an’s true nature, which directly dispelled such thoughts. After all, she was just a woman who clung to a wealthy man. What help could she offer?

Who would have thought that she had already dismissed such thoughts, but now she had such an opportunity again because of Murong Yumeng.

Now, looking back, she felt that it was really the right decision to muster up the courage to call Murong Yumeng. Murong Yumeng was her greatest benefactor in life, practically changing her destiny.

Not wanting to waste too much time on Zhou Cui’an, Murong Yumeng excused herself after a brief conversation

Watching Murong Yumeng leave, Zhou Cui’an felt a twinge of regret. There were still things she wanted to say, but she didn’t dare to waste Murong Yumeng’s time.

Despite Murong Yumeng’s departure, Zhou Cui’an had no intention of leaving just yet. With her worries resolved and an invitation from Murong Yumeng, she felt unexpectedly relieved.

For days, she had been unable to eat or sleep well, fearing her secret would be revealed. With Murong Yumeng’s promise to help, she felt reassured.

With the weight lifted off her chest, she felt unprecedentedly light-hearted. Now, she simply wanted to savor this moment of relaxation.

Especially when her eyes fell upon the bank card on the table, Zhou Cui’an’s smile widened.

She had resigned herself to losing the money, but to her surprise, she still had it. With the kickback issue resolved, she decided to keep it.

With this money, she thought about what dress to wear to the banquet.

Meanwhile, after leaving the café, Murong Yumeng got into a car waiting by the roadside.

In the car, besides the driver, another person sat in the backseat -Murong Yumeng’s follower, Xiao Lingling.

Seeing Murong Yumeng enter the car, Xiao Lingling immediately took her coat and asked, “Senior Sister, are you finished chatting?”

“Yes,” Murong Yumeng replied, her tone indifferent, even mocking. “It was just desperate. To bother me for such a trivial matter, she really has no shame.”

At this moment, Murong Yumeng had completely shed the gentleness she displayed when facing Zhou Cui’an just now. The moment she got into the car, her entire facade was stripped away. Now, leaning against the back seat, her face bore a sneer, and she appeared exceptionally indifferent. This was a stark departure from her usual image of being understanding and caring, akin to an elder sister.

Xiao Lingling wasn’t surprised by this.

As Murong Yumeng’s follower, she knew exactly who Murong Yumeng was. And now, Murong Yumeng didn’t even bother pretending in front of her.

Of course, Xiao Lingling dared not reveal Murong Yumeng’s true nature. Offending Murong Yumeng would only bring trouble to her family.

Moreover, Xiao Lingling knew that Murong Yumeng’s public persona was deeply ingrained. Even if she revealed the truth, no one would believe her.

Ignoring Xiao Lingling’s silence, Murong Yumeng looked at her and said, “I’ve invited her to the banquet on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Remember to take care of her.”
