Given Nangong Nuan’s status, she did not have to rely on the Nangong family for anything. If she was unhappy, she had the power to eliminate her enemies’ entire families—the families they depended on to survive.
Gu Mingzhe had provoked Nangong Nuannuan last month when the Gu family officially filed for bankruptcy.
Therefore, when everyone heard the name ‘Nangong Nuannuan’, everyone instantly fell silent as though her name was a plague.
The young master from the small noble family who previously said that Nangong Nuannuan was overreacting now had a flushed face. When he saw Nuannuan looking at him, a trace of fear crept onto his face.
“Miss Nangong, I’m really… I’m really sorry. I apologize for what I said just now.”
Although this would definitely make Xiao Yaxin unhappy, he already knew there was no chance he would end up with her, so he was okay with doing this.
Xiao Yaxin was not favored by the Xiao family. On the other hand, Nangong Nuannuan was loved and protected by both the Nangong and Chi families, so she was obviously someone who he could not afford to offend.
The young master’s heart was even more bitter than hemlock. He was filled with regret and annoyance at his mistake. However, there was nothing that he could do about it now. Nangong Nuannuan was not someone he could afford to offend. Despite already losing his dignity, the young master immediately apologized to her spinelessly.
“I’m sorry.”
“I’m sorry, Miss Nangong.”
“I’m sorry.”
The socialites who had previously been on Xiao Yaxin’s side and had criticized Nangong Nuannuan earlier now began apologizing one after the other.
Upon apologizing, they quickly left.
At this point, they no longer dared to stay. They were afraid that if they stayed, Nangong Nuannuan would remember their faces and cause trouble for their families.
Most of the 20 or so socialites and young masters who had gathered in Deputy Hall left. The two or three of them who were daring enough to stay watched from a distance. None of the socialites dared to approach Nuannuan and Xiao Yaxin anymore.
No one dared to criticize Nangong Nuannuan.
Watching this scene unfold, Sze Lingyun, who had been sitting on a sofa resting after her acupuncture, was dumbfounded.
These people were unscrupulous.
Sze Lingyun thought that everyone liked Xiao Yaxin, but in the end, they all turned on her. These people, who were behaving so high and mighty just a few moments ago, were now scattering away like a cowardly flock of birds.
The person who helped her was her idol, Nangong Nuannuan.
Back then, when Li Jingyan went on a mission to Naboo against the law, he suffered a gunshot wound. The wound could not seem to heal, instead getting infected and turning necrotic. When he eventually returned, Sze Lingyun was told that his life was saved by his sister-in-law. It was his sister-in-law who concocted a medicine to treat his infection. It was because of her that the Eagle Special Forces soldiers were able to turn the situation around.
As a third-year medical student who was hailed as a genius, Sze Lingyun had regarded Nangong Nuannuan as her idol from that moment onward.
Then, when Ning Wenhao was infected with that genetic virus and his condition quickly worsened, Nangong Nuannuan was again the one who developed an antidote for him.
Therefore, Sze Lingyun greatly admired Nangong Nuannuan. She had always wished for Li Jingyan to introduce her to his sister-in-law. Even if she only met her from afar, Sze Lingyun would have been pleased.
She had not expected to one day end up meeting Nangong Nuannuan like this. Not only that, but Nuannuan, her idol, had defended her despite the pushback from everyone else in the room.
Sze Lingyun’s gaze fixed on Nangong Nuannuan like a spotlight on a starlet. It felt like her idol had a golden light shining down upon her.
Looking at her idol, Sze Lingyun’s heart continued to beat rapidly.
