Chapter 496: Finding Support
Mu Wei clenched her fists, pursed her lips, and said softly, “Xue, I’m no longer working in Royal View. Please help me tell Young Master Li that I’m not interested in being his mistress, and I don’t intend to sell my body for money!”
“What did you say?”
The woman named, Xue, looked amused. “No longer working here? That’s easy for you to say. What about the 6 million you owe? Have you paid it off?”
Her eyes lingered on Huo Jiu, and a hint of jealousy flashed across her eyes.
Ever since Mu Wei entered Royal View, her business had been well. Royal View’s rules forbid people from forcing their employees and warned them that they would be beaten up if caught; the worst offenders may even lose their arms and legs. Therefore, even though many people were interested in Mu Wei and even offered her a way out, Mu Wei didn’t care.
This made the girls working at Royal View dislike Mu Wei more and more. In order to find long-term financial support, they had been compromising in front of those rich people and were belittled by them. However, Mu Wei was different. A lot of people were sent to her for her to choose from, but she pretended to be high and mighty!
“Could it be true?” Seeing that Mu Wei didn’t say anything, Xue curled her lips and said in jealousy, “Your life is really good. It was this handsome guy who helped you pay off your debt, wasn’t it? Why? How many years have you sold to him?”
“Xue, don’t be too harsh with your words! I don’t have that kind of relationship with him!” Mu Wei gritted her teeth in embarrassment and said coldly.
“Tsk—” Xue crossed her arms in front of her chest and said disdainfully, “Do you think I believe that? Young Master Li has been chasing you for so long, and he has been giving you flowers and gifts every day. I thought you would end up with Young Master Li. But it turns out, there’s a bigger fish in the sea!”
As she said this, she twisted her hips and walked up to Huo Jiu. She smiled, put her finger on his shoulder, and said in a coquettish tone, “Handsome, what do you think of me?”
Not only was he young, but his temperament was also very good. Even if she couldn’t be his mistress, she would benefit from a one-night stand!
Song Yaoyao blinked her eyes innocently and stared at Huo Jiu.
The young girl’s eyes were dark and clear, making Huo Jiu feel guilty.
He coughed softly and took two steps back to block Xue’s hand. He curled his lips and said, “I don’t mind, but are you worthy?”
“You—”
Xue stared at him and her smile disappeared. She had met nasty people in the past, but never someone this nasty.
“Handsome, aren’t you going overboard with your words? No matter what, aren’t I on the same level as her?!” she said in frustration as she pointed at Mu Wei.
Mu Wei rolled her eyes speechlessly. She really didn’t know what she had done to provoke the women here.
Was it just because she refused to be like them and didn’t want to be kept by rich people that she was going to be isolated and looked down upon?
What kind of world was this?!
Huo Jiu smiled, slowly pinched her chin, and suddenly raised it. He narrowed his eyes as he approached her and asked in a low voice, “She’s clean. What about you? How many men have you slept with?”
Xue’s face turned red instantly. She opened her mouth and said, “Who knows if she’s pretending? I—”
“Xue! What are you doing here?!”
Fang Gan was a step too late. He saw this scene and immediately scolded her in a cold and displeased tone. He quickly walked up to Song Yaoyao and apologized, “I’m sorry, Miss Song. It’s our people from Royal View who are insensible for offending you.”
Song Yaoyao shook her head and asked Xue curiously, “Do you have a grudge against her?”
Shouldn’t the two of them be competitors? She should be happy that Mu Wei was leaving. Why was she still making sarcastic remarks?
Miss Song?
