When Ji Xinxin frantically reached Ling Chuxia’s location in her red convertible roadster, Ling Chuxia was standing upright at the side of the road in an elegant fashion.

The car turned a corner quickly and came to a smooth stop right in front of Ling Chuxia. Ji Xinxin tilted her head slightly downwards and the large pair of sunglasses slid down her nose bridge, exposing her mesmerizing and wide eyes. She pursed her rose-red lips and told her, “Get in the car.”

Ling Chuxia had long been used to her bluntness. She quietly complied and went to the other side of the car. She opened the door and sat on the front passenger seat.

Once she was seated, Ji Xinxin stepped on the accelerator. The car sped off swiftly like a flash of lightning.

The strong wind blew against Ling Chuxia’s black hair. She quickly pressed down on her messy hair and combed it neatly with her hand.

Ji Xinxin glanced at her from the side of her eye and started roasting her unapologetically. “My dear Ling Chuxia, must you behave like this even now? The great Mrs. Shi isn’t around anyway. You don’t need to act like a prim and proper rich lady all the time.”

Ling Chuxia’s hands trembled slightly. She then smiled and replied, “I’m used to it already.”

Ji Xinxin shook her head in disapproval and continued her incisive criticism. “I really don’t know how a normal person can be stifled to this extent. It’s completely inhumane, yet you’re perfectly happy with everything.”

Ling Chuxia smiled again and did not reply. She knew that Ji Xinxin never approved of Mrs. Shi’s method or Ling Chuxia’s own meekness. Although Ji Xinxin may be wicked with her words, everything she said was genuinely for her own good.

Ji Xinxin was highly respected in the entertainment industry and was known for a tough image but a warm personality. She was the top female celebrity of the leading entertainment company, Monarch Group. Her popularity was through the roof.

She was extremely prideful and wilful and did not seem to care about anyone else. Somehow, she became the best of friends with Ling Chuxia. It was an unexpected friendship.

Ji Xinxin’s car continued cruising on the road. Ling Chuxia had not slept well last night and was feeling groggy the whole day. The morning session with both Mrs. Shi and Shi Che only served to keep her on the edge. She finally had a rare moment to relax with her good friend beside her. She unknowingly fell asleep on her seat.

By the time she had woken up, the vehicle was back in town. But the car was not heading in the direction of Shi Che and her house. It was going the opposite way.

Ling Chuxia frowned in suspicion and looked at Ji Xinxin. “Xinxin, weren’t you going to take me back home?”

This road was not the way to home!

Ji Xinxin did not even bother to throw her a glance. She replied candidly, “No, I’m not!”

Ling Chuxia simply thought that Ji Xinxin had to run some errands. She sat upright and pointed to somewhere by the roadside. “Oh, do you have errands to run? Then… just let me alight there and lend me some cash. I’ll take a cab home myself.”

Ji Xinxin did not stop the car but stepped on the accelerator instead. The automobile cruised along the road even faster.

Ling Chuxia’s eyes widened slightly as she appeared slightly confused. “Xinxin…”

“That bastard Shi Che ditched his own wife on a road with no one in sight and couldn’t give a damn! Why go home when he treats you like this?! Aren’t you masochistic enough?”
