Rebirth of the Charming Girl in Space
Chapter 214:
It's Really You
Seeing her flushed appearance, it was evident she had been living well lately.
Last time, she portrayed herself as pitiful; it turned out she was intentionally playing the victim.
Being able to work at Yiyi Embroidery and then move on to a second-ranked restaurant in the capital afterward, she had more skills than her younger uncle.
When Du saw someone inside, her heart skipped a beat. She didn't expect someone dining alone to choose a private room.
Usually, only esteemed guests dined in private rooms, and her rough opening of the door would likely have offended the girl.

However, upon hearing her words, Du was momentarily stunned. It took a while before she recognized the person before her.
It wasn't that her memory was poor, but Murong Lingran's appearance today, compared to the last time at Yiyi Embroidery, was like night and day.
If she could be described as a beggar last time, now she looked like the young lady of a wealthy family.
Du looked at Murong Lingran's attire, and her eyes revealed undisguised jealousy.
She couldn't believe that the person before her was the daughter of the helpless Mrs. Xia who needed to sell herself for a lifeline.
Surveying the entire room and confirming they were alone, Du didn't hesitate to speak bluntly, "You, this annoying girl, where did you steal such a nice outfit?"
"Steal?" Murong Lingran's tone was mocking, "You think because you're a thief, so everyone else must be too? As the old saying goes, dirty people have dirty thoughts."
Du's face stiffened, not expecting this girl to be so direct, poking at her weak spot right away. She retorted angrily, "You, this brat, do you know where this is? How dare you come here?!"
"This place? Of course, I know what this place is. My father taught me to read since childhood. Three characters - Ming Yue Lou. I naturally recognize it," Murong Lingran replied slowly.
With a gloomy expression, Du said, "Since you know, get out immediately. I finally cleaned it up yesterday. It's all dirty and messy because of you. If it's not cleaned properly, you'll have to compensate for these carpets!"
"You admit you cleaned up here yesterday?" Murong Lingran coldly chuckled.
Du snorted, "Hmph, I'm from Ming Yue Lou. What's strange about me cleaning up here?"
Murong Lingran suddenly stood up, dangerously squinting her eyes. "So, it was you who deliberately poured water on the embroiderers at Yiyi Embroidery yesterday?"
Du was stunned, her eyes flickering, but upon realizing she was alone here, she straightened her back. "What are you talking about? I won't do such a thing. If the embroiderers at Yiyi Embroidery got splashed, it's their own bad luck. Don't falsely accuse innocent people."
Murong Lingran looked out the window and said, "Falsely accuse innocent people? I won't do that. So, where were you at the time of the incident yesterday, around three o'clock?"
Du's face turned stiff, and her eyes flickered. But thinking that she was alone here, she stood up proudly. "What's it to you where I was? Even if I splashed water, what can you do? What law states that I can't pour water from upstairs? The street below doesn't belong to those embroiderers."
Murong Lingran's face suddenly turned unusually cold, and her voice became colder, "It seems it was really you."
"Hmph, even if it was me, so what? Get out now, or I'll have someone throw you out!" Du sneered.
