This... how is this possible?

Lin Weiwei felt a wave of dizziness.

She looked at the man before her, a man she knew down to every last hair, and suddenly found him to be a stranger!

Su Qing's mouth hung open, but she could not utter a single word.

So... her best friend had been living so well!

Watching the pair go from arrogant to completely dumbfounded, an indescribable sense of satisfaction surged in Shen Wang's heart!

Awesome!

So this is what it feels like to act cool and slap faces!

Satisfying!

"Now, can you get lost?"

Shen Wang pointed at the door.

Lin Weiwei opened her mouth, not knowing whether she should apologize and beg for a reconciliation now, or wait a couple of days to come back and apologize.

That was 5 million!

Even if she only got to spend half, that was still 2.5 million!

How many years would she have to go without eating or drinking to save that much?

But before Lin Weiwei could speak, Su Qing stepped in first.

A look of the gentlest, most charming smile instantly spread across her face, and her voice became sweet and coquettish.

"Brother Shen Wang~"

"Look at you, you must have just woken up and haven't eaten anything yet, right? It's not good to be hungry!"

"How about... I cook some noodles for you? My cooking is really good!"

"Hiss—!"

Shen Wang shivered, his skin crawling.

That was fucking cringey!

Did the cold, aloof imperial sister just switch into a sweet, soft girl instantly?

That change was way too fast!

Lin Weiwei was trembling with rage, her face turning green!

She knew her "good best friend" too well!

Su Qing's biggest "ideal" was to marry a rich man.

Now that she saw Shen Wang had suddenly made it big, she was trying to steal him on the spot!

"Su Qing! You bitch! What do you think you're doing?"

Lin Weiwei yanked Su Qing away, like a hen protecting its food.

"This is my boyfriend! If anyone is cooking noodles for him, it's going to be me! Who do you think you are?"

Su Qing was pulled away, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she crossed her arms and rolled her eyes dramatically.

"Boyfriend? Lin Weiwei, did you lose your memory? Didn't you just insist over and over again that you had broken up? And you said that even if he knelt down to beg you, you wouldn't get back together—did you forget that so quickly?"

"If you ask me, Weiwei, you just don't know how to cherish what you have!"

"A man as outstanding and capable as Brother Shen Wang, and you just tossed him away like that? You really don't know when you're well off!"

"If it were me, I would definitely treasure him like a precious gem~"

"You...!" Lin Weiwei was so angry she almost couldn't catch her breath.

"Su Qing, don't act innocent here! Do you think I don't know what kind of person you are?"

"You pretend to be a socialite all day, but those luxury cosmetics you post on your social media are actually just samples you swiped from department store counters, aren't they?"

"And those five-star afternoon teas? They're all 'socialite packages' you split with others, where each person only gets five minutes to take photos! Who are you trying to fool by acting like a wealthy beauty?"

Upon hearing Lin Weiwei expose her secrets, Su Qing completely dropped the facade.

"Heh! Lin Weiwei, you have the nerve to talk about me? Do you think you're so high and mighty? Aren't you just using Shen Wang as a long-term meal ticket?"

"Did you forget what you said to me? You said, 'If it weren't for the fact that he's still a little useful, I would have kicked him to the curb long ago,' and 'Being with him feels like nothing; I even think his saliva is dirty when we kiss'!"

"Now that you see he has money, you want to come back and graze on old grass? Aren't you disgusting!"

"Bullshit! When did I ever say that!"

"You did say it! And more than once!"

"You're slandering me! You're the gold digger who fishes for sugar daddies everywhere!"

"That's still better than you, a scum woman who treats her boyfriend like an ATM!"

Best friends turned into enemies in an instant!

The two women immediately staged a spectacular catfight in Shen Wang's rental apartment.

The dirt they dug up on each other was more explosive than the last.

The extent and intimacy of the content left Shen Wang, who was watching from the side, dumbfounded and his worldview shattered!

'Good grief...' Shen Wang exclaimed internally.

It really was a knife cutting the ass—a real eye-opener!

So this is what so-called deep sisterhood is, chatting about these things in private?

With so much dirt on each other, they really were plastic sisters—breakable at the slightest snap!

The two women argued until they were red in the face and gasping for breath, almost exposing every skeleton in each other's closets.

By the end of the argument, realizing neither could gain the upper hand, they stopped almost simultaneously.

Then, in unison, they looked at Shen Wang with eager eyes.

"Shen Wang, I know breaking up with you was wrong, but putting aside the facts, aren't you also at fault?"

Lin Weiwei still wanted to try and salvage the situation.

That was 5 million!

Even if they couldn't get married in the end, Lin Weiwei wasn't willing to just let it go.

Actually, the psychology behind this was very simple.

Lin Weiwei had been with Shen Wang for over a year and had let him take all the advantages he could, and yet, just after breaking up, she found out he was a millionaire—who could be okay with that?

Lin Weiwei was currently in a state of being both unwilling to let go and somewhat regretful.

However, Shen Wang simply raised his arm again and pointed to the door: "Get lost!"

If you're already fucking 'putting aside the facts,' then there's nothing left to talk about!

Lin Weiwei's face fell instantly.

Once upon a time, she was a class-beauty level stunner chased by thousands and adored by ten thousands; when had she ever been scolded like this by a man?

"Hmph! Fine, I'll leave!"

"It's just 5 million, what's the big deal? In Jingzhou, that's not even enough to buy a decent house!"

"Just because you have a little money, you don't know who you are anymore! I, Lin Weiwei, can still find a man a hundred times better than you after leaving you!"

Lin Weiwei grabbed her bag and prepared to leave.

Beside her, Su Qing beamed with joy.

"Brother Shen Wang, don't be angry. I'm not like that woman Lin Weiwei; I only care about you!"

Shen Wang turned his head to look at Su Qing: "You get out too!"

"Uh..." Su Qing was also choked up.

You have to know, her looks were a few points higher than Lin Weiwei's, and she was a school-belle level beauty!

Now, being treated so rudely by a man, she couldn't save face either.

"Shen Wang, why are you yelling? Just because you have a little bit of money, look how arrogant you've become!"

"Do you think having 5 million makes you something special? That you can reach the heavens? Let me tell you, in a place like Jingzhou, 5 million is nothing! You're still just an ant at the bottom of the social ladder!"

"Upstart! Country bumpkin! I'm done serving you! Weiwei, let's go!"

The two women, who had just been arguing until their faces were red, instantly became best friends again.

The two of them linked arms and left without looking back.

As they walked, they continued to badmouth Shen Wang.

"Does he really think he's someone? It's only 5 million; in the world I've seen, that wouldn't even make a splash!"

"With such a foul temper, it's no wonder you were poor before! I bet this money was just sheer dumb luck, and you'll probably lose it all tomorrow!"

"I want to see how long he can act so cocky!"

"Don't come crying to us when that happens!"

"Bang!" The door slammed shut.

The world was finally completely quiet.

Shen Wang heard the "clack-clack-clack" of high heels fading away outside the door and shook his head speechlessly.

It really is true that women and small-minded people are difficult to deal with; get too close and they become insolent, keep them at a distance and they become resentful!

He then hurriedly changed the password on the digital lock.

He had neglected this matter before, but thankfully, nothing unexpected had happened.

Returning to the room, Shen Wang took out his phone again and couldn't help but smile as he looked at that long string of zeros.

Su Qing was actually right about one thing: in a place like Jingzhou, 5 million really isn't worth a fart.

"Heh, who said I only have 5 million..."

Shen Wang took out Sha Zhenjiang's master-disciple invitation letter, looked at it for a moment, and decided to give it a try.

"comrade Sha Ruijin, it's time we had a good talk..."
