"Help yourself and make yourself at home. I'm going to prepare dinner." They were all friends, and Murong Xue knew no one had to stand on ceremony.

"Xiaofei, have you been to Xue's house? It looks like you're familiar with here." Liu Huali turned to ask Huang Xiaofei. He saw that she knew where the home shoes were and put them on naturally. Her movements were very casual, and it didn't look like it was the first time she had come here.

Huang Xiaofei was putting the shoes away. She paused for a while and replied, "Well, yes, I've been here once before."

"It makes sense. You seem to be close. When we went to the skating rink before, you two were together." Liu Huali said.

Huang Xiaofei showed an unnatural smile. "Yes."

The Gang of Five seldom chatted with others. So naturally, Huang Xiaofei and Liu Huali sat together while the Gang of Five sat at another place.

Murong Xue finished cooking and saw it. She couldn't help but show a resigned smile, but she also knew the habit of the Gang of Five. Of course, she wouldn't force them.

Everyone stuffed themselves with food and drink.

Murong Xue walked up to Huang Xiaofei and said softly, "Xiaofei, can I talk to you alone?" Then she turned to Liu Huali and said, "Huali, I'm sorry. Give Xiaofei and me a moment."

Liu Huali replied and was a little embarrassed, "OK." Actually, it was the first time he had fallen in love, but he was serious and had planned to cherish Huang Xiaofei his whole life. However, when people cracked jokes on him, he still felt a little embarrassed.

Huang Xiaofei followed Murong Xue upstairs to the study.

Murong Xue locked the door of the study from inside and then faced Huang Xiaofei. "Come and sit here, Xiaofei. I have something to talk to you about." She walked up to the sofa in the study.

Huang Xiaofei also walked up. "Xue, did you want to say that I didn't answer your phone yesterday? Actually, I was busy with something and it was inconvenient for me, but it's just a trivial matter. There's no need to have a private talk." She flicked her fluffy hair and said with a smile.

Murong Xue was silent for a long time before saying, "Last night, I saw..." Then she looked at Huang Xiaofei.

Huang Xiaofei's hand froze in the air. "What… What did you see?"

"I saw you with a middle-aged man." Murong Xue said flatly.

Huang Xiaofei instantly turned pale and trembled. She looked at Murong Xue and said in a panic, "Xue, it's not what you think. I can explain."

"Calm down first. I'm not interrogating. I'm just worried about you." Murong Xue saw she panicked and tried to comfort her.

"Xue, don't tell others, please." Huang Xiaofei's mind was a mess. What she was most afraid of being exposed was discovered by others, which made her unable to calm down. She could only keep begging Murong Xue.

Murong Xue took her hand and said anxiously, "I won't say anything. I'm just worried about you. Are you in any trouble or are you threatened?"

Huang Xiaofei just kept sobbing, feeling she was finished. When she imagined how people would look at her if they knew, her face became even paler. "That man is just a senior I know." Huang Xiaofei said, biting her lip. Murong Xue only said that she saw them, but she didn't see what they were doing. She shouldn't lose her mind.

No senior would pinch a young girl's ass. Murong Xue frowned. But when she saw Huang Xiaofei's reaction, she didn’t dare to ask in a harsh tone. "Who is he? And I saw you kissed him on the cheek."

Huang Xiaofei's face blanched. "He's just my uncle. Kissing him on the cheek is nothing. Isn't that foreign etiquette now?"

But they were not in a foreign country. Murong Xue decided that it would be better to lay it all on the table. After all, if the school knew this, she might even be expelled from school. "Xiaofei, tell me the truth. He's not your uncle, is he? I also saw that he groped your butt."

Huang Xiaofei stared at Murong Xue, her eyes wide open. Murong Xue looked so charming, but she didn't know why she just felt ironic. She threw Murong Xue's hand off and shouted, "Why do you ask me when you know it? Show me you're noble and virtuous?"

Murong Xue shuddered, trying to process what she said. After a while, she explained, "That's not the case. Why do you think so? I'm just worried about you. Don't you know what will happen if it is discovered by the school?"

"How would the school know? I am careful every time." Huang Xiaofei said.

"Then how did I know? I still saw it."

"Yes, if the school knows, it must be that you spread the word. Are you looking down upon me in your heart and thinking that girls like me are cheap?" Huang Xiaofei said in a self-deprecating and sarcastic tone, her anger full-blown.

Murong Xue looked at her in disbelief. "You are crazy. How did you become like this?"

"Ha-ha, how did I become like this? Of course, rich girls like you don't understand. Not everyone can lift a finger and get what others dream of just like you." Huang Xiaofei laughed and burst into tears.

"You see. My hair is snazzy. My clothes are luxurious. My nails are carefully trimmed. I wear the jewels around my neck. All of these need money. How can I be beautiful without money? Do I look better before? When I wear earthy clothes and have dry hair and rough skin, no one will look at me in the crowd." Huang Xiaofei crazily touched her clothes.

Murong Xue didn't expect Huang Xiaofei would care so much about these things. "Don't do this again in the future, Xiaofei. Now you've got enough."

"Enough? How can it be enough? Now I just know that money can be earned so easily. Why do I have to wash dishes?" Huang Xiaofei wasn't that anxious now, and her ambition was exposed. Anyway, Murong Xue knew it, and she didn't have to hide it.

Murong Xue's face fell. "You mean you will continue like this in the future?"

Huang Xiaofei looked at Murong Xue's cold eyes, her heart starting to tremble. But she straightened her back and said stubbornly, "I don't think there is anything wrong with me? I haven't done anything illegal." She just traded her body for money. What was wrong with that?

On that day, after leaving the hospital and returning to school, she soon parted ways with them. She was reluctant to say goodbye to such gorgeous clothes, so she rarely took a taxi to the richest area. She didn't do anything. She just walked quietly along the roadside. People kept looking at her all the way. Their eyes were full of envy and admiration, which made her feel proud.

She was just going to have some fun and go to school, but suddenly, a man came over.

"Miss, are you alone?" The man was about thirty years old, wearing a formal suit with a thick gold necklace.

For the first time, someone hit on Huang Xiaofei, so she was a little proud and arrogant. She proudly raised her face, which she usually tried to cover up. "What's up?"

The man stretched out his hand, held Huang Xiaofei by her waist, and then said with a sneer, "What's fun about being alone? Let me take you to a place for more fun."

Huang Xiaofei was a little scared at that time, dodged in panic, and exclaimed, "What are you doing? Let me go! Otherwise, I'll scream!"

After all, it was a busy street, and there were still quite a lot of people around. Her screams attracted the attention of many passers-by. The man cursed in a low voice and let go of his hand. "D*rn! You look like a b*tch and are pretending to be pure."

Huang Xiaofei was close to tears and said with some fear, "You... You sicko, I am not like that."

The man threw away his cigarette and said, "Are you still a virgin?"

Huang Xiaofei had butterflies in her stomach and was about to run away, but the man was fast and grabbed her instantly. "Why run away? I'm not a bad guy."

"Let me go, or I'll scream." Huang Xiaofei shouted.

The man sneered, "Will you do it for money?"

"What? Money?" Huang Xiaofei pretended to be calm.

The man touched Huang Xiaofei's face and said, "How soft! Should be able to ask for a good price! You know there is that kind of deal, a night with a virgin. If you meet a good customer, you can earn millions of yuan."

Huang Xiaofei turned pale. "Get out of here. I won't do this!"

The man was not angry. He took out a name card and put it in Huang Xiaofei's hand. "Call me if you need it!" Then he went away.

Huang Xiaofei suddenly squatted down and cried, attracting a few eyeballs.

Why did this happen to her? Was it just because she had no money? She remembered that if it had been Murong Xue, no one would have talked to her like this. The world was really unfair.

She squeezed the card but never threw it away.

Two days later, when she gazed at the only luxurious dress carefully folded on her bed and thought of her father's illness and the daily expenses, a strong desire overwhelmed her.

Finally, she took out the name card and dialed the number.
