Jiang Peiqin, distraught over accusations of Ling Wenhao's infidelity with Ye Dongyan, is calmed by Xinyan, who insists on investigating before judging. Suspecting Ye Dongyan's scheme, they hurry to the scene where Ling Wenhao passionately denies the claims from Ye Dongyan and her family, pleading for Peiqin's trust. Peiqin agrees to handle the matter first, while Xinyan spots something suspicious in Ye Dongyan's pocket, detecting an unusual scent.

She had things to deal with back home, so she refused to linger here any longer than necessary.

Approaching Jiang Peiqin, she leaned in close, murmuring softly into her ear before giving a quick nod.

Jiang Peiqin’s expression shifted instantly, startling Ling Wenhao: "Xiaoqinzi, I swear I haven’t lied to you at all."

While speaking, he shot a glance toward Xinyan, fearing she might add more. His eyes hadn’t deceived him; Han Xinyan’s whisper had triggered Xiaoqinzi’s sudden change.

Yet before he could respond, Jiang Peiqin shoved him aside and headed straight for Ye Dongyan.

While others missed it, Xinyan spotted a brief flash of smugness on Ye Dongyan’s face; clearly, this woman had been faking everything.

Xinyan paid no mind to her usual demeanor.

However, for scheming against her close friend, Xinyan vowed to shatter her image and reveal her real nature.

Spotting Jiang Peiqin advancing, Ye Dongyan planned to act innocent, but Jiang Peiqin seized her arm and dove into her pocket to yank out an item.

Terrified, Ye Dongyan reacted fast, clutching Jiang Peiqin’s hand: "What are you doing?"

The words had barely left her mouth when her complexion drained to a ghostly white.

Xinyan observed the drama eagerly, not hesitating to fan the flames: "Miss, what’s in your pocket that scares you so much?"

Image forgotten, Ye Dongyan snapped in disarray: "What’s it to you?"

With a playful grin, Xinyan remarked: "Oh, aren’t you meant to be soft and gentle like water? Now you’re roaring like a fierce tiger—terrifying! Was all that prior sweetness just pretense?"

Ye Dongyan freaked out: "Who are you, coming here to trash my name?"

Stepping closer with a sly, derisive smile, Xinyan declared: "Let’s reveal what you’re battling over to all, and the facts will emerge."

The crowd grew excited, egging things on.

Ye Dongyan panicked wildly, beads of sweat dotting her brow.

Xinyan taunted on purpose: "Sweating in this freezing winter? Feels like thief’s guilt making you tremble in fear."

At that moment, Ye Dongyan’s attention wavered, allowing Jiang Peiqin to rip the object free from her grasp.

Shocked into frenzy, Ye Dongyan lunged desperately, but Ling Wenhao booted her back before she neared Jiang Peiqin.

The woman bellowed in rage: "Ling Wenhao, what are you doing?"

Unfazed, Ling Wenhao retorted: "I’m stopping a lunatic from harming my fiancée—or call it heroic justice if you prefer."

Fuming, the woman threatened: "Ling Wenhao, if my Dongyan gets hurt, I won’t spare any of you."

The crowd ignored the woman’s tirade, eyes locked on the thing Jiang Peiqin held.

Xinyan urged Jiang Peiqin to display the item for all to see.

Following the suggestion, Jiang Peiqin held it up high.

A voice called out: "What is that?"

Xinyan eyed the pale-faced Ye Dongyan: "Better ask the culprit herself. A forbidden item like that—bold move."

She mockingly flashed Ye Dongyan a thumbs-up.

The earlier woman screeched: "Who do you think you are? This isn’t your business. Scram if you’re smart."

As Jiang Peiqin opened her mouth, Xinyan halted her, pivoting with a playful smirk toward the woman: "So eager to chase folks off—what secrets are you burying with that weird behavior? Makes me think you’re in on it or helping out."

The woman lost her cool: "Shut up."
