Capítulo 1199: New Year's Eve

However, that wasn't true forgiveness. They weren't on the path to becoming friends again, but more like choosing to "let it go."

Qiao Xuan understood the implication behind Madame Lin's words. She listened with a polite smile, though her growing unease became apparent as she fidgeted in her seat. Only then did she offer a few comforting words.

Madame Lin visibly relaxed. She seized the moment to extend her hand in friendship once more, but Qiao Xuan didn't engage further in the conversation. Eventually, Qiao Xuan apologized, leading to Madame Lin feeling so embarrassed that she excused herself and left.

Qiao Xuan had no tolerance for such pretentious behavior.

Except for those who were either clueless or overly self-absorbed, no one would dare to associate with such an individual.

Before they knew it, New Year's Eve arrived.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan welcomed the new year in each other's company.
