After she finished speaking, she slipped away.
"Meng Qian!!!!" Gu Xiaowu roared, her anger palpable even at the foot of the stairs.
"Humph, serves her right!"
What Meng Qian sent to Gu Xiaowu was a photo of Chen Xiaoman without makeup, looking greasy and dirty, decidedly ugly.
Qiao Xia had a dinner appointment with a producer from her company in the evening, right downstairs of the company building. He was an anime producer, and she liked a web novel that was being adapted into an anime which the company was producing. Qiao Xia, having looked forward to it for a long time, invited him to dinner to get some firsthand information. As a hardcore fan, she was quite thrilled to get the scoop. After dinner, she quickly walked home, which was also a good way to take a walk.
Just when she was halfway there, she saw a WeChat message from Mu Liang.
Mu Liang, "Haven't you gotten home yet?"
Qiao Xia, "On the way, I was treating someone to dinner, just got back."
