At that time, the carefully selected gift I prepared was treated as trash by Lu Shujie, carelessly thrown aside, and then taken by Lu Yao to sell on a second-hand website. From watches to clothes, my gifts transformed into possessions of a wealthy woman.

With money in hand, she went shopping everywhere and bought a lot of watches and suits for Lu Shujie, even though the gifts I gave were more precious.

Lu Shujie cherished every single item as if it were very precious.

Luo Yao didn’t forget to show off in front of me afterwards.

“Gifts are given out of affection. If someone doesn't like them, no matter how good-looking they are, they are just rubbish.”

“My brother Lu has good taste. The dress he gave me is not bad.”

I glanced over, the purple dress perfectly accentuating her graceful figure. Lu Shujie's eyes towards her contained endless tenderness and care.

Now that I think about it, I have a good figure, am pretty, and have plenty of money. Why the heck did I get caught up with Lu Shujie?

I took out all the money I had prepared to support Lu Shujie and spent it recklessly, buying a 100,000 yuan jade necklace and a top-notch tourbillon watch.

Just as I rounded the corner towards the school gate, I saw Lu Shujie and Lu Yao from a distance.

It really was hard to avoid running into enemies even if I tried.

Lu Shujie squinted, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Lu Yao's eyes swirled around my necklace and watch, and her expression changed instantly, no longer concealing her greed and jealousy.

Even now, she was still living a difficult life with Lu Shujie. Although her clothes were clean, upon closer inspection, the edges were still frayed. Every day she worked tirelessly for a few dollars.

With envy surging, she grabbed onto my jade necklace as soon as she came over. Before she could try anything, I twisted her thumb back, causing her to yelp in pain.

“If you have something to say, say it nicely and don’t use force.” I smiled wryly.

She rubbed her fingers, signaling for help to Lu Shujie.

Lu Shujie, unprecedentedly, turned his head away.

“Wealthy people are really different. Your necklace must be very expensive.”

“I wonder how long it would take for me and Brother Lu to work to afford a necklace like this.”

She complained with a smile to Lu Shujie.

Before, if I had heard her badmouthing me, it would definitely lead to a confrontation. But my arguing skills were quite poor, often resulting in self-inflicted losses and making Lu Shujie unhappy.

Now, I clearly see through it: roll off, loser!

I sneered, “Right right right, credit for your discerning eye. This necklace cost 100,000 yuan, the kind that you would have to work for a year just to afford.”

“After walking for what feels like miles through a 1000-square-meter villa, I might as well experience country life one day. Do you live on a barren hill made of loess?”

“How about spending the summer holidays at your place to experience it? I’ll charge 500 yuan a day for accommodation. How’s that?”

Lu Yao stared at me wide-eyed, unable to speak for a long time.

Her eyes were red, and her thin lips quivered with anger.

I sang and continued forward, “I am the queen, brimming with confidence.”

“I sleep until I wake up naturally, my hand cramps from counting money. Being a good person is so difficult and boring. Lu Yao, do you understand my pain?” I let out a silvery laugh.

“Brother Lu, look! She’s bullying me again.”

She cooed to Lu Shujie in a plaintive voice.

My mouth curled slightly.

“It’s not disgusting to sell cuteness and act lovely in front of men all day?” I continued, “Besides whining around men, what else can you do? You despicable tramp without any shame.”

“That’s right, you two make a perfect nauseating pair. Just seeing you makes me feel sick.”
