Chapter 1555: Chapter 1570: She Actually Has Bodyguards by Her Side

Wang Xiaoyi took the invitation, her eyes lighting up. "What silly talk? Being a bridesmaid for Young Mrs. Mu is a blessing I’ve earned over eight lifetimes."

Wang Xiaoyi opened the invitation and saw the elegantly written names.

The wedding of Mu Family’s young master in Imperial City would undoubtedly be a much-anticipated event. With the status of the Mu and Shen Families, the guests would be nothing short of distinguished and wealthy, even the Imperial President would attend, and she would be by the bride’s side as a bridesmaid. It’s an opportunity many would dream of.

Just her presence at the wedding would mean she’d stepped further into that circle, and she believed that one day, she would find her own place within it.

"An Ran, don’t worry, I’ll arrive in Imperial City the day before," Wang Xiaoyi promised as she carefully put the invitation into her bag.

An Ran was already used to Wang Xiaoyi’s jokes; very few in Nan’an knew her identity, Wang Xiaoyi being one of them, and only she would constantly mention the Young Mrs. Mu.

At first, An Ran didn’t mind and thought she was just joking around. But today, Wang Xiaoyi repeatedly brought up her identity, mentioning it again made An Ran frown slightly.

"Xiaoyi, what are you talking about? We’re friends."

"Yes, having a friend like you is a blessing I’ve earned over eight lifetimes," Wang Xiaoyi said as she packed the invitation, not noticing An Ran’s expression.

Fine, let her say whatever she wants, as long as I keep a good mindset, An Ran thought, feeling relieved.

After the two finished their meal and business, An Ran didn’t return to Wang Xiaoyi’s studio but got into the car Fang Hui was waiting in outside.

Ever since Mu Xingfeng came to Imperial City, Fang Hui and Zhang Liang were practically inseparable from her.

Wang Xiaoyi stood by the roadside, staring blankly at the car driving away and mumbled to herself, "An Ran has a bodyguard, she actually has a bodyguard?"

Indeed, last time when she stood up for her classmate, she also had two bodyguards with her, didn’t she?

At that time, she should have known that the bodyguards around her were more than just one.

She remembered hearing from one of Brother Shan’s men that her bodyguards weren’t folks anyone could easily deal with. And of course, for someone with Mu’s status, how could they find just average bodyguards for An Ran? They must be former soldiers, at the very least.

Wang Xiaoyi let out a bitter laugh. She actually had bodyguards; recently, she even took bodyguards to a bar to rescue a classmate’s boyfriend.

She remembered the scene clearly; not just with Brother Shan and his men in the suite on the second floor, there were five or six guys just beating on that kid. An Ran brought her bodyguards, without a trace of fear.

But what about her at that time? Four or was it five of them?

It’s been too long, she couldn’t remember, just that they came one after another, and before one could pull up their pants, another one would appear...

Across the street, the neon lights of the fashion studio flickered in multicolored hues as they came on.

Inside, the studio was brightly lit and bustling with people, yet her heart felt colder and colder.

Wang Xiaoyi didn’t return to her studio, instead, she walked along the familiar yet foreign street towards her residence.

This was a small two-bedroom apartment that Brother Shan rented for her. It wasn’t big, but it was her haven in this city.
