Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Xiang Xiaoyuan resigned from the company, everyone said that she had hooked up with a rich man. At that time, many people were envious of her good fortune. But now, it seemed that the rumors were false.

A rich second man could drive such a car?

Sensing the change in their gazes, Xiang Xiaoyuan felt that her life was meaningless. This was probably a necessary part of transmigration. There would definitely be people out there looking for trouble.

"Xiaoyuan, you don't know, right? Zhao Kai's house has been demolished. Just the house alone has been repaired several times, and there's also a compensation of more than two million yuan. Zhao Kai used this money to buy a BMW which costs four to five hundred thousand yuan."

Inexplicably, their topic of conversation became odd, but it was always about Xiang Xiaoyuan. Another man nudged the man who was wearing a flowery shirt in the middle. He laughed and said, "See, what I said before was accurate. You and Xiaoyuan are not suitable for each other, your destinies clash. Look, Xiaoyuan resigned earlier, and your house was demolished later. When we men look for a wife, we have to look for someone that brings us luck. For a woman like Xiaoyuan, we have to stay as far away from her as possible."

This man called Zhao Kai looked decent, but his taste in clothes still needed to be improved. According to the man, this Zhao Kai had chased after Xiang Xiaoyuan before, but he might have been rejected because he was poor or for other reasons. Under normal circumstances, the one who would be teased would be the man, but who knew Zhao Kai would make a fortune?

If you have money, then you're a boss!

Zhao Kai...

Xiang Xiaoyuan suddenly thought of something. When she had just transmigrated, she had not received the original owner's memories, so she could only understand the original owner's personality and interpersonal relationships like an outsider. In modern society, the one who could best understand a person's life was their cell phone!

She browsed through the original owner's and Zhao Kai's chat logs. There were not many chat logs, but they were enough to make Xiang Xiaoyuan angry. This Zhao Kai seemed to have been courting the original owner for a long time. When they chatted, his tone was direct and overbearing. The two of them were clearly just ordinary colleagues, but he even had a say about the short skirt that Xiang Xiaoyuan wore to work and said that a woman wearing such a short skirt was seducing a man.

The original owner basically did not reply to the messages. She would only reply once in a while, politely distancing herself from him.

After reading this chat record, Xiang Xiaoyuan's first reaction was that the original owner's temper must be pretty good. If it was her, she would have long deleted this stupid man's contact and blocked him, regardless of whether he was a colleague or not!

Now that she thought about it, her personality was completely different from the original owner's. It was also fortunate that Zhao Kai had not made any trouble on Wechat during the time she had transmigrated here. Otherwise, she would have already spoken up!

No matter what, Xiang Xiaoyuan did not want to be bullied. Therefore, as soon as the man's voice fell, she said immediately, "As far away as possible? Why don't you take a piss and take a look at yourself? Are you close to me? It's the 21st century, and you still believe in superstition. You said we are incompatible? If fate is right, you'd better be careful. I heard that people who gossip will have their tongues pulled out after they die!"

The man did not expect Xiang Xiaoyuan to become so sharp. He was stunned for a moment.

His expression proved that Xiang Xiaoyuan's previous guess was right. The original owner's temper was really good, or rather, it could be said that she was timid. She did not dare to talk back to anyone, let alone fight back!

Thinking of this, Xiang Xiaoyuan stroked her hair that had been blown away by the wind, she smiled lightly. "To be honest, we are already former colleagues. It's fine if we just nod our heads to greet each other on the street. Why do we have to feel each other's presence?" Her gaze fell on Zhao Kai, who had been silent the whole time, her tone became colder. "I said that I'm already married, right? Have some shame. Don't send those ambiguous words to a married woman. If you don't find it disgusting, I'll find it disgusting."

As long as Xiang Xiaoyuan was willing, no one could interrupt her when she was talking.

She spoke very fast, but her words were very clear, her voice was as clear as a jade plate beside one's ears. "And you guys too, why do you have to flex your presence in front of me? Is being rich very impressive? Is demolishing a house very impressive? Is buying a new car very impressive? No matter how impressive a BMW is, can it be more impressive than the car beside me?"

She pointed at the car beside her, and they followed her line of sight, a black Maybach.

They were dumbfounded.

They were not scared by the Maybach, but by Xiang Xiaoyuan.

In their impression, Xiang Xiaoyuan was introverted and did not like to talk to people. She was beautiful, but she was honest, or dull. She would do whatever others told her to do, even if it was not her job, she would do it dutifully.. Because of her face, people who had just joined the company were nervous and didn't dare to talk to her.
