When Bianca next set foot in the busy A City once more, five years had passed.

She had been away for almost two thousand days and nights. It was not a very long time, but it was not nothing either.

Back then, she had been pushed about mercilessly by destiny. She had been completely powerless!

Now, she just wanted to use her own strength to take control of her life with her own hands.

It was morning.

"Bea, over here-" Nina wound down her car window and waved at Bianca, who was walking out of her suburb.

Time had passed. Five years later, the two of them were no longer clueless girls of eighteen or nineteen.

Bianca and Jean had returned to the country together yesterday, and Nina had been the one to pick them up from the airport.

That night, Jean had taken Bianca back to the Langdons' place for dinner.

Mr. and Mrs. Langdon were more than happy with Bianca as their future daughter- in-law.

That morning, Jean had wanted to go to the interview at the company with Bianca, but something came up and he could not join her.

Bianca got into Nina's car and sat in the passenger's seat, wearing her seatbelt. 1

"Do you know what my mom said last night after you left with my brother?" Nina asked.

"What did she say?" Bianca was worried that Jean's parents would not like her.

"My mom said, 'Look at Bianca! She's fair and beautiful, gentle and sweet. Now look at you! Why are you two different? You lay about at home, you're rough like a man, and you swear like a sailor!" Nina could not help but touch her friend's soft face as she said that, clicking her tongue. "The air out there sure is good for your skin." 3

"As if! You've never left home before, so you don't know how tough it is." Bianca smacked her naughty hand away. "Focus on the road."

The two of them chatted on the way.

It was more than forty minutes past eight when they reached T Corporation.

"I hope my brother isn't late. The boss is a heartless tyrant, you know!" Nina muttered to herself as she lowered her head and hurried her brother on WeChat.

A heartless tyrant? Nina was making Bianca nervous now too.
