She looked towards An Zhixin and said, "Just trust him. Whatever he says is the truth. Take a taxi home, take a shower, and go to sleep. Nothing bad will happen."

Originally, she didn't have any good feelings towards An Zhixin. However, she felt moved upon seeing how far An Zhixin would go to help a friend out."

However, it was a pity that Wang Shiyu was so malicious as to scheme against a friend like that.

Compared to the sacrifices An Zhixin had made for their friendship, Wang Shiyu had nothing to give and had even tried to hurt her.

The money felt as though it burned in An Zhixin's hand. She didn't want to accept Mu Xiaoxiao's money, even if it was just a hundred dollars, for it still felt as though she owed her something.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao had just helped her. With that, she had already come into her debt greatly.

She knew that she had no money right now, and if she didn't take the hundred dollars, she could only walk home.

An Zhixin squeezed the cash in her hand tightly. Her eyes kept wandering to the road behind them, and in her gaze still lay an uncertainty towards Wang Shiyu...

Were Wang Shiyu and the two men really in cahoots?

She didn't want to believe it.

However, she knew that Yin Shaojie wouldn't lie to her. He had no reason nor need to do so.

An Zhixin felt tortured and conflicted, as though her feelings were as messy as a hemp ball. She had no idea what she was supposed to do next.

Yin Shaojie held Mu Xiaoxiao's hand and made as though he was about to leave.

"Let's hurry, or they'll call again and bother us."

"Yeah," Mu Xiaoxiao nodded. She then turned to An Zhixin and said, "Don't go back. Your friend will be fine. You're only going to get hurt if you go back again."

Yin Shaojie didn't want to bother with An Zhixin anymore but at Mu Xiaoxiao's urging, said mildly to An Zhixin, "You should go home first. I'll send you news in an hour, how about that?"

This was so that the girl wouldn't go back like a fool.

An Zhixin froze. Her eyes misted over as she looked at him. "I understand. Thank you both."

Had he seen through her thoughts, and was thus being so considerate?

How could anyone not fall in love with such a man?

However...

An Zhixin now understood very clearly that she had no right to do so. Also, Yin Shaojie was only being this considerate because of Mu Xiaoxiao, not her.

She looked towards Mu Xiaoxiao, and felt a mix of emotions. She had used to dislike and hate Mu Xiaoxiao.

However, she felt all kinds of emotions right now, but mostly envy.

She really envied her.

If it were possible to exchange her fate with someone else, she wished that she could become Mu Xiaoxiao and be the object of Yin Shaojie's affection.

However, this was a wild wish that was impossible to be fulfilled.

She didn't know how she was insane enough to believe that she could have replaced Mu Xiaoxiao in the past.

It was too laughable.

An Zhixin stood fixed to the spot as she watched Yin Shaojie and Mu Xiaoxiao walk away hand in hand.

She could feel a wave of indescribable sweetness and tenderness just by observing their silhouettes. It hurt her single heart.

The pair walked out of the night market street. There was a sports car parked at a spot in the dark. Yin Shaojie opened the car door for Mu Xiaoxiao, and placed a protective hand over her head as she got in.

Yin Shaojie then walked over to the driver's seat and got into the car.

After a short while, the car left.

An Zhixin watched the glamorous and cool sports car disappear from her sight slowly with an indescribable emptiness in her heart.
