Early in the morning, the city was bustling with the vitality of early risers.
Zhao Guihua and her group were heading towards the train station, full of hope for a better life. However, in another part of the city, things were different. In the eastern district, in a large compound, every household was also starting their day for work. But this morning, everyone's expressions were weird. Guan Guiling had just woken up to cook breakfast when she saw groups of people chatting in the courtyard.
Confused, she stepped out and asked, "What's going on?"
Her question seemed to startle everyone. Upon seeing her, their faces changed, and their expressions turned as if they had seen something disgusting, trying to avoid her as much as possible. This wasn't a new reaction; previously, people in the compound had distanced themselves from Guan Guiling because she was known for her stinginess and scheming nature.
