Liang Zhaowan walked towards Shen Yanzan with her hairpin. Her footsteps were not fast, but each step seemed to land on Shen Yanzan's heart.

"The tactics you used to deal with Lin Zhenzhen are useless against me," Liang Zhaowan said, her eyes gleaming with a hint of mischief as she spoke, staring into Shen Yanzan's eyes.

When Shen Yanzan was still in the flowerpot, busy making green tea flowers under Ming Shao's care, he already knew that Ming Shao was a woman with a very strong presence. However, now that they were facing each other directly, she was still somewhat unable to regain her composure.

At this moment, Shen Yanzhan finally had a faint understanding of why those immortals who came to Mingguang Palace were reluctant to look directly into Ming Shao's eyes. Those eyes were too sharp, carrying an indescribable sense of oppression, as if they could see into people's hearts at a glance. Even though she had now become a completely ordinary mortal, the sharpness in her eyes remained undiminished.

Shen Yanzan chuckled and said, "Liang, you've misunderstood. I didn't intend to harm you. I took your money, so naturally, I will use it to buy you a meal."

Facing Liang Zhaowan, her trembling tongue became incoherent in an instant. She didn't dare to look into Liang Zhaowan's eyes, not even knowing where to place her hands.

For five hundred years in the Heavenly Realm, Zhan Shenyuan had always been rooted in the flowerpot by the entrance of the Mingguang Palace. She didn't know what it meant to have a liking for someone, nor did she know what actions were necessary when liking someone. The only thing she was certain of was that her heart was filled with Ming Shao's face. And so, regardless of consequences, she made the decision to descend to the mortal realm.

However, now that she had to interact with Ming Shao as a human, she felt uneasy. She didn't understand how she could make Ming Shao not dislike her and start liking her.

"A hundred yuan, I'm afraid it wouldn't even be enough to buy a single hairpin for Miss Shen," Liang Zhaowan said, slightly curling her lips as she looked at Shen Yanzan with a half-smile.

High society is like a circle, where any little incident involving a certain family is immediately spread throughout the entire circle as post-dinner gossip. Chen Yanxi is a man who pays no attention to such matters, and it's very easy for Miss Shen in front of him to deceive him.

Liang Zhaowan is different. The Liang family is one of the top three families in City H, and Liang Zhaowan has always been revered as the leading socialite in City H. Although the Shen family is not as prominent as the Liang family, they are still considered a prominent family. Liang Zhaowan has heard Shen Anyan's name mentioned a few times by her plastic sisters in the social circle.

She knew very well that although Shen Yan Zhan had no talent or skill, she was the beloved treasure of the entire Shen family. If the Shen family were to truly cut off her living expenses, it would surely become instant news that would spread throughout the entire social circle.

However, Liang Zhaowan hasn't heard a single word from Miss Shen in these past few days. This can only indicate one thing, that Miss Shen is lying. As for the purpose behind Miss Shen's lies, she couldn't fathom it.

It was not surprising for Liang Zhaowan to see through the clumsy lie that Shen Yanzan casually made up to deceive others. At first, Shen Yanzan never intended to deceive Liang Zhaowan. She said, "Liang Xiaojie has such sharp eyes. I was just lying to them because they ganged up to bully you. I couldn't bear to see it."

This time, Shen Yan's voice suddenly softened, as if coquettishness was infused in every word, carrying a touch of a little girl's playfulness.

"Why can't you just let it go?" Liang Zhaowan curiously asked, her interest piqued.

"I've seen you before, at the ball," Shen Yanzan said. "You are clearly so noble, what is Lin Zhenzhen compared to you? Why did she falsely accuse you? And that Chen Yanxi, it's clearly not your fault, why does he blame you?"

Just now, Shen Yanzhan suddenly recalled a memory. The original host had met Liang Zhaowan at a certain gathering, but it was just a fleeting glance. The original host didn't think much of it and quickly forgot about it, but Shen Yanzhan suddenly remembered Liang Zhaowan's expression.
