Lady Qi’s face was pale, yet she remained arrogant and rude. As the situation unfolded, however, panic began to set in. Dragged to a strange place and confronted by a stranger, she realized that Lian Huishan had seen through everything she had done. Watching Lian Huishan’s eyes, a chill crept into her heart; she knew there was nowhere left to hide.
Lian Huishan wore a smile, her tone casual, as if everything were entirely under her control. In contrast, Lady Qi looked displeased, clearly desperate to get rid of this uninvited guest. She tried to pull Lian Huishan out, but the woman didn’t budge, which surprised Lady Qi given the thin woman's surprising strength.
"Mrs. Tan, I’d like to have a chat with you," Lian Huishan said, her opening line a mystery that piqued Lady Qi’s curiosity. Yet, Lady Qi’s reaction was like that of a cornered beast, eager to break free from her restraints. She snapped unhappily, "I don't know you, and I don't want to chat."
