The following days passed without any disturbances.
Lu Haotian and Gong Xue'er didn't appear again.
Xia Yangyang seamlessly finished her internship at Shengyuan and prepared for the school term.
The day before school started, Liu Ruyan called her, inviting her home for dinner.
Liu Ruyan was once a top star in the entertainment circle, and now she is Xia Yangyang's stepmother.
Xia Yangyang's mother passed away when she was twelve, and she was surprised to find that half a year later, her father married Liu Ruyan.
In Xia Yangyang's memory, her father was a gentlemanly and deeply affectionate man, always treating her mother with great care, especially during her illness.
Xia Yangyang did not object to her father remarrying, but what she couldn't accept was that Liu Ruyan brought a daughter named Xia Weiwei, who was only two years younger than Xia Yangyang, and also her father's biological daughter.
