When Ning Youguang returned from a bike ride, she met a middle-aged woman adorned in designer brands, with heavily made-up face, holding a dog, chatting with a slim, attractive young girl in a tracksuit at the residential complex downstairs.
It was unclear what they were discussing, but judging by the atmosphere between them, it was nothing pleasant.
"Teacher Ning, back already?" The middle-aged woman, who was walking her dog, greeted her from afar as soon as she saw her.
"Mrs. Liu is out walking the dog." Ning Youguang replied with a smile.
She wore casual clothes and strolled leisurely around the complex, her steps graceful, her voice calm and unhurried, like a gentle breeze that reached the ears of the young girl, who was a bit agitated in conversation with the middle-aged woman, sparking her curiosity to look over.
This glance led her to steal a few more looks.
The middle-aged woman noticed the young girl's gaze on Ning Youguang, and eyed her with a hint of disdain.
