Chapter 656: Chapter 654 Thank You_1
Jiang Miaomiao didn’t know what sorrowful thing came to her mind as tears plopped down incessantly.
At this moment, a cool towel to relieve the heat fell on her head.
Jiang Miaomiao felt as if ice-cold springs surged into her limbs and revived her whole body, making her incredibly comfortable.
"Senior, thank you, you’re truly a good person!" Jiang Miaomiao could tell without even opening her eyes that the person taking care of her at the moment was Xia Ningxing.
Who else but her would help a competitor like this!
"No need to be polite, it was just a small effort." Xia Ningxing lowered her gaze to look at her, took her pulse, and after seeing she was alright, she felt relieved.
"Stop crying. The training ahead will be even harder, so try to adjust your mindset as best as you can." Xia Ningxing thought she was upset about the training and couldn’t help but say a few more words.
If she couldn’t endure today’s training, it would be better to consider giving up early rather than suffer in vain later on.
"Thank you, senior, but it’s not the training that made me cry." Jiang Miaomiao, with her eyes downcast, gripped the necklace around her neck tighter and tears shimmered in her eyes again.
Compared to the heart-wrenching pain of losing him, what was this training worth?
Xia Ningxing had long noticed that this girl cared a lot about her necklace, and she couldn’t help but take another look at it now.
The necklace seemed strange...
It wasn’t like the diamond jewelry other girls wore; the pendant on her necklace seemed to be a chip from some machine.
But everyone has secrets, and without Jiang Miaomiao speaking up, Xia Ningxing wouldn’t pry.
Xia Ningxing said, "Then rest for a while, and go take a shower and have a meal soon."
"Alright, senior." Jiang Miaomiao replied.
"Just call me by my name. You keep calling me ’senior’ and I feel old." Xia Ningxing felt a good sense of camaraderie with her and didn’t want to be so formal.
"But it’s rude to call a senior by their name. If you don’t mind, may I call you Ningxing?" Jiang Miaomiao asked tentatively, staring at Xia Ningxing as if afraid she would refuse.
"I don’t mind, call me whatever you wish." Xia Ningxing raised her hand and ruffled her hair.
She would never admit that she had always wanted a younger sister.
Jiang Miaomiao smiled, "Ningxing, you’re really kind."
Despite her influential background, she was never pretentious and always took care of others.
"Yo, congratulations on finding a powerful supporter so quickly!" Mo Xue had originally been eavesdropping outside the door, but seeing how intimate the two were, now addressing each other as sisters, her heart blazed with jealousy, and she couldn’t help but barge in and speak sarcastically.
Jiang Miaomiao subconsciously glanced at Xia Ningxing, and hastened to explain, "Mo Xue, don’t slander me, my friendship with Ningxing isn’t about clinging to powerful coattails!"
"If you continue to spout nonsense, I’ll tear your mouth apart!"
"Heh!" Faced with Miaomiao’s threat, Mo Xue couldn’t help but scoff, seeming disdainful while her eyes were filled with raging jealousy and envy.
Xia Ningxing stepped forward, crossed her arms, and pierced right through her thoughts, "You are jealous, aren’t you? You try so hard to please Bei’an, but it seems he only treats you as a servant, while Miaomiao can casually address me as her sister."
"I bet you’re regretting now, aren’t you? If you’d known I was so approachable, you wouldn’t have started by trying to ingratiate yourself with Bei’an, right?" Xia Ningxing asked with a half-smile.
"You..." Mo Xue’s pupils dilated in disbelief as she took a step back.
This woman couldn’t possibly read minds, could she?
So she really knew her thoughts!
But how could she admit to such shameless behavior? She screamed in denial, "Xia Ningxing, stop spouting nonsense. It’s hilarious! Do you really think I’d try to curry favor with you just because you have some backing? Dream on!"
"I was just speaking off the cuff, why such a strong reaction? Those who don’t know might think you’re getting angry because I’ve hit a nerve!" Xia Ningxing cleaned her ears and blinked, looking puzzled as she watched the woman in front of her go crazy.
"You!" Mo Xue was at a loss for words.
Indeed, if her innermost feelings hadn’t been poked, she wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.
She couldn’t outtalk the articulate Xia Ningxing; her face turned red, then black, then white in quick succession, as colorful as a palette, and finally, she stomped her foot and left angrily.
Upon reaching the infirmary, Mo Xue couldn’t help but whisper to Bei’an, who was dressing her wound, "Senior, you have no idea how arrogant Xia Ningxing is, she was badmouthing you behind your back."
She knew she couldn’t take on Xia Ningxing, after all, her own status and connections paled in comparison, so she could only resort to stirring up trouble.
Bei’an was an international celebrity, and her family was a well-known conglomerate in UA. With such a background, it would be as easy as crushing an ant if she decided to deal with Xia Ningxing.
A gleam of triumph and pleasure flitted across Mo Xue’s eyes.
Let’s see if this woman could still be so arrogant then!
"Really?" Bei’an observed her with an amused, skeptical look, clearly disbelieving her words.
First off, Xia Ningxing didn’t seem like the sort to speak ill behind others’ backs; she’d probably throw the words right in your face if she had something to say.
Secondly, in this industry, anyone who’s been around knows how to judge whether words are genuine—it’s quite easy to distinguish truth from lies.
"Senior?" Mo Xue nervously clutched her fingers, fearful her lies would be discovered.
Bei’an snorted with mockery, "Is sowing discord fun for you? Do I look like someone to be used as a pawn by others?"
Mo Xue hadn’t expected her ruse to be seen through. Terrified of being blacklisted, she immediately went weak at the knees and collapsed at Bei’an’s feet, "Senior, I..."
She hurriedly tried to explain, but Bei’an cut her off.
"That’s enough, no need to explain, just don’t let it happen again," said Bei’an. She wouldn’t fall out with her now, for if they did, who would serve as her maid?
Only then did Mo Xue breathe a sigh of relief, her heart returning to its place as she hugged her legs and gratefully said, "Thank you, senior! Thank you, senior!"
"As for Xia Ningxing, not only do you dislike her, but I also find her an eyesore. I’ll think of a way to deal with her," Bei’an said, looking at the large abrasion on her once delicate skin. The thought of it scarring made her face cloud over.
She suspected that it was Xia Ningxing who had kicked the bead back under her feet, causing her to fall so miserably.
She would definitely get her revenge for this!
At this moment, Bei’an had already forgotten that she was the one who had intended to harm Xia Ningxing first!
"That would be really great," Mo Xue was overjoyed.
With Bei’an taking action, it wouldn’t be long before Xia Ningxing would have to pack up and leave.
After all, this was UA, Bei’an’s turf, not like Star Shine, where the Lu Family could do as they pleased.

At night, the dorm room without air conditioning or a fan was unbearably hot, like a giant steamer.
