Regardless of Shen Xis ident.i.ty, for the concierge, anyone who arrived by helicopter to play was either wealthy or n.o.ble. Thus, he could not allow Shen Xi to experience any grievances under his service.

Furthermore, in the situation earlier, right after stepping out of the elevator, someone came rus.h.i.+ng toward them. Both parties should bear some responsibility for the collision.

Hey, youre just an insignificant concierge. Do you consider yourself worthy enough to apologize to me? You, apologize to me As the girl pointed her imperious finger at Shen Xi, she froze, and a glimpse of panic flickered in her eyes.

This girl was none other than Jiang Xue, who had just returned from abroad after undergoing plastic surgery.

Jiang Xues heart raced, fearing that her true ident.i.ty would be discovered by Shen Xi.

A tinge of suspicion appeared in Shen Xis eyes. If she was not mistaken, the girl before her seemed to recognize her. When she turned to face her, her eyes betrayed a mix of panic and shock.

Shen Xi carefully sized up the girl before her, finding her somewhat familiar, but she could not put her finger on where they had met.

Meeting Shen Xis puzzled and scrutinizing gaze, it suddenly hit Jiang Xue that she had undergone a complete transformation and no longer resembled her former self. Furthermore, she was no longer Jiang Xue. She was now Gu Ning, the young miss of the Gu familys second branch in Beijing.

Years ago, after she and her mother left Beijing, they encountered a wealthy businessman abroad.

This businessman was terribly fond of Xia Chun. While Jiang Xue was perplexed by his distinctive preference for older women over younger ones, she jumped on the opportunity and sent her mother to his bed.

Despite her mothers mature age, she still attracted the affection of an older man. In Jiang Xues eyes, it was only the value left in her.

After a few days of tears and protests, Xia Chun finally accepted the wealthy businessmans romantic pursuit. The two got together.

Upon discovering that the wealthy businessman was a member of the Gu family in Beijing, she promptly changed her name and ident.i.ty, becoming the daughter of the wealthy businessman. To secure her future return to Beijing, she even underwent extensive plastic surgery.

With this thought, Jiang Xue instantly relaxed her tense demeanor, put up a calm front, and said, Forget it, Im in a good mood today. Im letting this go. With that, Jiang Xue, now Gu Ning, turned and hurriedly walked away.

Shen Xis gaze deeply followed Jiang Xues departing figure. She felt really familiar!

As Jiang Xue reached the corner with quick strides, she leaned against the wall to catch her breath.

Jiang Xues resentment towards Shen Xi intensified as she relived the scene of her own hasty retreat in her mind.

Four years ago, her reputation was destroyed in Beijing. Moreover, on the day she departed, she made the startling discovery that the couple who formed the marital alliance between the Lu and Shen families were none other than her foster parents, who had raised her for eighteen years.

This shocking revelation fueled her anger. Why was Shen Xi blessed with such good fortune?

When her foster parents were dest.i.tute, it was she, Jiang Xue, who endured the hards.h.i.+p with them. Meanwhile, Shen Xi enjoyed a life of luxury in the Jiang family.

When they finally swapped ident.i.ties, she had only enjoyed a brief period of happiness before the Jiang family went bankrupt.

At that point, her foster parents returned to their previously affluent lives, and Shen Xi effortlessly became one of the most prominent young misses in Beijing.

Shen Xi had lived a relatively easy life, having only been through half a year of hards.h.i.+p.

As for her?

She had barely savored a few months of bliss.

Now, she had resorted to selling her mothers dignity for riches, submissively pleasing the Gu family members, all the while feeling utterly stifled.

If she had known this would be the outcome, she would have never chosen to switch back. She would have been the mysterious young miss of the Shen and Lu families in Beijing.

No, if it were her, she would not hide in secrecy like Shen Xi, kept away from public view. She would make sure everyone in Beijing recognized her face, and make them grovel at her feet.

Only this way could she give back every bit of the pain and humiliation she had endured over the years.

Gu Ning, why are you here? Everyones waiting for you! We cant proceed without you! This Mortal Realm floor isnt suitable for you. Lets head upstairs to the Heavenly Palace, said a girl in a purple dress, grabbing Jiang Xue who had been lost in thought against the wall.

In an instant, Jiang Xue was reinvigorated. Yes, she was now Gu Ning, the only granddaughter of the Gu familys second branch, a famous celebrity. What did she have to fear?

Apart from the twisted humiliations she endured in the Gu family, she was a young miss who was unreachable to common families, and a famous female celebrity who was the center of attention.. Was she not?
