Jiang Ruoge remained silent

Before she could finish her sorrow, a waiter suddenly rushed over and asked everyone at the table: "Is there a Miss Jiang Ruoge here?"

"Did I slander you?" Lin Xunyan looked at her expressionlessly and continued, "Clearly, I just said a few words to you a moment ago, and you felt unhappy, so you splashed wine on me..."

Jiang Ruoge reluctantly joined the large group of the class, sitting in the corner while eating. However, her circle of friends has always been relatively small; apart from Xiaoxiao, she has only casual acquaintances with others. When they were all a bit drunk and even crying in each other's arms, she continued to eat.

"Miss, could you please come with me to talk to that gentleman? He seems quite upset." The waiter also appeared somewhat helpless.

"Lin Xunyan, are you out of your mind!" Jiang Ruoge truly wanted to strangle the man in front of her; he was indeed her nemesis, and he would not rest until he had completely defeated her.

Jiang Ruoge was furious: "Lin Xunyan, do not casually slander others! This is not my doing!"

After the waitress confirmed that she was Jiang Ruoge, she leaned down and said to her: "Miss Jiang, there is a gentleman over there who claims that you just soiled his clothes. He is requesting compensation. Could you please come with me to address this matter?"

Jiang Ruoge felt a wave of speechlessness

I do not wear clothes that have been stained with dirt; this is my personal habit. His tone conveyed not the slightest intention of concession

All evidence, both testimonial and physical, is present, and the waiter can only fix his gaze on Jiang Ruoge: "Miss Jiang, do you have anything else to say?"

I simply have not done it

I got his clothes dirty?" Jiang Ruoge hesitated, her eyes widening in disbelief as she looked at him, "How is that possible!"

Jiang Ruoge tugged at Xiaoxiao's sleeve and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, don't pay any attention to him. That wasn't done by me at all. Why should I compensate him?"

Jiang Ruoge was also quite surprised; in general, when someone is called out like this in a television drama, it usually involves some kind of surprise, along with romantic confessions and a series of related events

Jiang Ruoge's attitude suddenly softened again

By the time she came to her senses, there was only a business card left on the table, which bore nothing but a clean and concise name along with a phone number

"Yes. " Lin Xunyan waved to the man at the adjacent table, "Hey, come over here and help me verify what just happened."

I can't take it anymore! Jiang Ruoge is simply going crazy. Why does this person always lie without any preparation, without a hint of embarrassment or a racing heart?

Having said that, Lin Xunyan left the restaurant, and before departing, he turned back with a smile. The corners of his lips lifted slightly, and a hint of wicked charm sparkled in his brown eyes. Such a smile was utterly enchanting in the eyes of other women, yet it sent chills down Jiang Ruoge's spine

Jiang Ruoge was truly anxious: "But this is not a small amount of money!"

Lin Xunyan tugged at his shirt and glanced at the waiter: "The price of this shirt should be equivalent to your half-year's salary. Now that it has been stained with wine, it is essentially ruined. This young lady refuses to compensate, and I believe it is necessary to involve the police"

"I will give you a night to consider, and I expect your response tomorrow." Lin Xunyan narrowed his eyes, "You can hide from the monk, but you cannot hide from the temple; you know what the consequences will be."

If there is none, then there is none, what further proof is needed? You claim that I splashed it, do you have any evidence?

Continue to help me with my tasks, just like four years ago

While the two of them were whispering and chattering, Lin Xunyan suddenly spoke up: "Jiang Ruoge, you really don't want to lose money, do you?"

At this moment, the man's female companion also approached and said: "Yes, I saw it, it was her who splashed it."

After a brief hesitation, Jiang Ruoge nodded.

Sir, there is no need to report such a trivial matter to the police, is there? The waiter is well aware that if this issue escalates, it would not be beneficial for the hotel

You say there is none, who can prove it

In the end, Jiang Ruoge followed the waiter to Lin Xunyan's table, and indeed, there was a stain of red wine on his clothes; of course, it was not she who had caused it

A man walked over, glanced at Jiang Ruoge, and then said to the waiter: "Just now, I saw those two seem to have had a dispute, and then this young lady splashed red wine on this gentleman..."

She looked a bit heartbroken, as if she would always be a backdrop, with everyone showcasing their affection in front of her, yet she was never given the chance to take the stage herself

I have a way that won't cost you any money, would you like to hear it

Certainly, her life could only be the opposite of a television drama

Jiang Ruoge was unable to return to her original position, as Lu Xianli and Xiaoxiao were still in their affectionate state.

She is also somewhat saddened, not only by the farewell to these people but also by a moment of silence for her unremarkable youth, which will forever be buried in the dust

Xiao Xiao glanced at Lin Xunyan's clothes, and it was evident that she was aware of the price of that outfit. The furrow in her brow tightened slightly: "I will compensate Ruoge. I know the original price of the clothes, and the compensation will be sixty percent of the depreciation. I will transfer the money to your account tomorrow"

Nonsense! Who is going to pay you money! It wasn't me who did it in the first place! Jiang Ruoge immediately became furious

The noise from the table of people finally ceased, and after a moment of silence, everyone's gaze turned towards Jiang Ruoge.

Xiao Xiao pressed down on her arm, glanced at her, and replied in a barely audible voice: "I know who this guy is; he has a deep background. You can't compete with him, it's better to avoid trouble."

The waiter awkwardly explained: "This young lady has soiled this gentleman's clothing and is currently negotiating compensation."

Oh..." Lin Xunyan squinted his eyes, "So you have such backbone! Alright, then I will call the police.

Just as Lin Xunyan was about to say something, Xiaoxiao noticed the commotion over here and walked over with Lu Xianli. She slightly furrowed her brows and asked, "What happened?"

She patted her head and said: "You can repay this money in the future if you are able; if not, then it doesn't matter. For me, it just means buying one less bag."

It is clearly something that can be taken to the dry cleaners! Jiang Ruoge truly wants to fight him.

Jiang Ruoge's lips twitched slightly; she could tell with just her toes that the only person in the world who would be so bored and have the leisure to play tricks on her was none other than Lin Xunyan

"You are lying!" Jiang Ruoge exclaimed in anger, yet that man remained unfazed as he looked at her.

Even if it wasn't you who did it, I absolutely have a way to make it your responsibility, do you believe it
