Jiang Yue cast Gu Dai a sidelong glance, adding, “Besides, a beautiful tie like this could only be pulled off by my Brother Song Ling.”

Gu Dai scoffed, “Does your ‘Brother Song Ling’ know you’ve escaped from the hospital to buy him a tie? And are you so sure he’s forgiven you?”

Gu Dai had always thought Song Ling was indifferent to whatever happened concerning Jiang Yue.

However, after observing how Song Corp’s PR team had successfully cleared Song Ling’s name but left Jiang Yue hanging, Gu Dai suspected that Song Ling might not care about Jiang Yue as much as she had initially thought.

Jiang Yue’s face stiffened momentarily upon hearing Gu Dai’s words but quickly recovered. She said, smiling, “Brother Song Ling loves me so much; he won’t mind.”

Since the photographs had been leaked and the media had once again linked her with Song Ling, Jiang Yue felt as if she had taken a tranquillizer.

The hospital she was staying at happened to be nearby, so she decided to buy Song Ling a tie as a gift. Maybe if she acted a little coy, he wouldn’t be so cold towards her.

Jiang Yue never expected to find Gu Dai in the store, also looking at ties. Irritated, she’d impulsively snatched the tie that Gu Dai had her eyes on.

Not wanting to get entangled in a futile debate with Jiang Yue, Gu Dai spoke coldly, “Hand over the tie. Now.”

Jiang Yue flatly refused, “No, 1 got it first.”

Feng Xue, who had been observing the scene, looked from Jiang Yue to Gu Dai.

Jiang Yue was adorned in this season’s newest fashions—from clothes to jewelry to shoes—all designed by top brands.

Although Gu Dai was undeniably attractive and her clothes looked good on her, Feng Xue couldn’t even spot a brand label. That led her to conclude that Gu Dai must be wearing some lesser-known brand, hardly worth much money.

Recognizing the connection between Jiang Yue and Song Ling, the President of Song Corporation, Feng Xue thought she might earn some brownie points by siding with Jiang Yue. Maybe she’d even buy more items from the store.

For the sake of her own sales performance, Feng Xue immediately stepped forward and said with a smile, “Indeed, Miss Jiang got the tie first. Therefore, it should belong to her.”

Having said that, she waved to the young store clerk she had initially sidelined and then turned to Gu Dai, “We have many other similar ties in our store. She can show you some alternatives.”

Then, attempting to ingratiate herself further with Jiang Yue, Feng Xue said, “Miss Jiang, is there anything else you’d like to buy? I can show you around. Besides, I’m a big fan of yours. I’ve seen all your performances on stage…”

Jiang Yue listened to Feng Xue’s flattery and her chin tilted up in pride as she shot a challenging look at Gu Dai.

At this point, Gu Dai was utterly exasperated with Jiang Yue. She took Su Ting’s arm and turned to leave.

But Su Ting didn’t move. His eyes were dark as they fixed on Jiang Yue. Finally, he murmured to Gu Dai, “Sis, 1 can’t stand her anymore. 1 want to rebel just this once.”

After those words, Su Ting turned to Jiang Yue and said coldly, “Do you enjoy stealing what belongs to others that much? Be it men or ties.”

Jiang Yue was momentarily stunned but quickly recovered, shouting, “How is this stealing? It’s just that my hands are faster. Besides, Song Ling and 1 are in a mutual relationship; there’s no ‘stealing’ involved!”

After Jiang Yue uttered those words, her gaze swept over Gu Dai and Su Ting, “Speaking of stealing, isn’t Gu Dai the one who cheated? She just got divorced, and you two are already together. Who would believe that there was nothing going on between you before?”

Su Ting let out a cold laugh, “You’re good at excluding yourself. If I remember correctly, weren’t you caught with a director? And it was live-streamed; many people saw it.”

That was a sore point in Jiang Yue’s life, and she blamed it entirely on Wang Lan’s show-off mentality.

Feng Xue, hearing this, quickly jumped to Jiang Yue’s defense, “That video had Al face-swapping!”

Jiang Yue’s face brightened considerably upon hearing Feng Xue’s defense and she shot her an approving glance.

Feng Xue stood even straighter when she met Jiang Yue’s eyes. She was already fantasizing about Jiang Yue buying more items to express her gratitude..
