"Falling for two scumbags, the ending was naturally quite awful."
Yan Yueqing sighed, "To come out unscathed from their hands, you really must have some skill."
"I don't have skills, just picked some more powerful scions to protect me, so they temporarily didn't dare to lay a hand on me," Xi Hongxia said with self-mockery. "I know the outside world doesn't speak well of me, saying I'm kept, saying I'm like currency circulating among the wealthy."
Yan Yueqing didn't see it that way. "Getting involved with a scion might have elements of vanity or being kept, but to navigate through a crowd with ease, that's your skill."
She was sincere, "At least, none of the guys you've dated has come forward to slander you. Anyone else is just not as capable as you and is spreading rumors out of jealousy."
Xi Hongxia's eyes brightened, "Do you really think so?"
Yan Yueqing spread her hands, "Otherwise?"
