Given Nangong Nuan's status, she did not have to rely on the Nangong family for anything. If she was unhappy, she had the power to eliminate her enemies' entire families—the families they depended on to survive.
Gu Mingzhe had provoked Nangong Nuannuan last month when the Gu family officially filed for bankruptcy.
Therefore, when everyone heard the name 'Nangong Nuannuan', everyone instantly fell silent as though her name was a plague.
The young master from the small noble family who previously said that Nangong Nuannuan was overreacting now had a flushed face. When he saw Nuannuan looking at him, a trace of fear crept onto his face.
"Miss Nangong, I'm really... I'm really sorry. I apologize for what I said just now."
Although this would definitely make Xiao Yaxin unhappy, he already knew there was no chance he would end up with her, so he was okay with doing this.
