Chapter 418: Chapter 418

Ling Momo turned her head and saw those people, her expression turning somewhat pale. While she hesitated to approach them, Jian Chenxi had already feigned enthusiasm, stepping forward and pulling Ling Momo along with her.

The few people, upon seeing Ling Momo, did not have pleasant looks in their eyes and were somewhat disdainful, showing no intention of greeting her.

Jian Chenxi was intentional in her actions as she smiled and tried to smooth things over, "Don’t you remember? This is Ling Momo." After saying this, she even turned to glance at Ling Momo and added, "She’s our classmate."

Ling Momo knew that Jian Chenxi was doing this on purpose. Back at school, Momo’s reputation as a socialite had caused quite a stir, and it was then that these people, who had once been her friends, had broken ties with her completely.

"We’re all classmates. It’s really not easy to see each other again, there must be a lot to talk about, right? I’ve still got to entertain other guests, but I’ll come back and check on you." Jian Chenxi smiled politely and after saying this, she turned and left.

The atmosphere grew even more stagnant once Jian Chenxi had gone. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by NoveI[F]ire.net

Ling Momo forced a smile and greeted them, "Long time no see."

Only then did those people take a look at her. Over time, everyone had changed to some extent, yet the one thing that hadn’t changed was that Ling Momo was still the most captivating of them all.

Captivating as she might be, those people still looked down on her in their hearts.

Who could respect a woman like Ling Momo who had been a socialite and had falsely accused her own good friend of stealing her music?

Now, reunited after all this time and gathered once more, seeing Momo still so radiant and beautiful naturally created a sense of imbalance in the hearts of those people.

Women have one thing in common—they like to deceive themselves.

Belittling others to comfort oneself.

So, a woman with a sharp tongue was the first to speak, her tone sarcastic, "Indeed, it’s been a long time. In the blink of an eye, Lu Niange has already married Xiaoxi!"

Of course, openly belittling others requires a catalyst, and many people don’t have the nerve to do it, but once someone takes the lead, the rest no longer fear—after all, there’s strength in numbers.

Thus, the chatter began.

"Xiaoxi is quite nice, a popular female singer with a clear background, and at the very least, she hasn’t been involved in any disgusting deeds that can’t be shown in public!"

"What you’re saying is right. If I were Lu Niange, I’d marry Xiaoxi too!"

"Who would marry a woman like her? Men would think she’s dirty, wouldn’t they!"

"I just saw her talking to Lu Niange in the bathroom hallway. I bet she still hasn’t gotten over him!"

"She must be hung up on him still, she was the one who chased after Niange like crazy back in the day!"

"So what if she’s hung up on him? Lu Niange is Xiaoxi’s husband now. We’ve all attended their wedding today, so all she can do is harbor feelings of discontent."

Ling Momo heard the mockery in their words, but she had long since grown numb. Time truly is a powerful thing; it can make one immune to all poisons.

Back in the day, she could only shake her head hurriedly and explain that she had never engaged in being a socialite, then unable to withstand the pressure, she dropped out of school weakly and hid away to cry secretly. But now, she had grown strong enough to listen to these words with a calm smile on her face, not even feeling the urge to explain.

Those who believe you will believe you, and no amount of explanation can help with those who don’t. These former friends had long turned into strangers, scattered to the ends of the earth.

Thus, Ling Momo merely smiled noncommittally and turned to leave, but she hadn’t taken a step before someone reached out from behind and hooked their hand around her waist. Before Momo could even react, she stumbled into an embrace, and then she heard a voice above her head...
