Song Jingya’s birthday party was not grand, it was more like a private party among friends.
The location was on the Song family's cruise ship, with toasts and conversation. Those who came were all young people from the wealthy generation of H City.
Lin Yan and Lu Jinghuai arrived around four o'clock. Lin Yan had just removed the splint and was still a little uncomfortable. Occasionally she needed to hold on to Lu Jinghuai to steady herself.
The waiter checked the invitation before taking the two of them onto the cruise ship.
Lin Yan immediately saw Song Jingya surrounded by several girls.
The brace on her calf was also removed. As the protagonist of today, she wore a white and pink rose-embroidered dress, looking bright and beautiful.
"This cruise ship is a birthday gift my father gave me." Song Jingya said with great pride.
He successfully gained the envy of people around him. In the current environment, especially among wealthy families, men are generally favored over women.
Girls marry out to form alliances, and boys inherit the family business, but the Song family has only one daughter, Song Jingya.
So even if Song Jingya is willful, the future of the Song family belongs to her. Song Jingya does have the capital to be proud.
Song Jingya also saw Lu Jinghuai and Lin Yan on this side, and she immediately left the little sisters surrounding her and ran over.
She breathed slightly and looked at Lu Jinghuai, her eyes beautiful and lively.
“Brother, you’re here!”
She seemed to have grown a lot. She no longer got angry because Lin Yan appeared next to Lu Jinghuai, but just ignored her.
Lin Yan didn't care either. As a cannon fodder, she was very self-aware.
"Brother, what gift have you prepared for me today?" Song Jingya looked at Lu Jinghuai with a smile, her eyes full of anticipation.
Lu Jinghuai did not disappoint her and handed the prepared gift to Song Jingya. Song Jingya took it and opened it without hesitation. It was a pink diamond bracelet.
It was worth a lot of money. Lin Yan took a quick look and thought it was probably as valuable as the necklace Lu Jinghuai had given her.
Lu Jinghuai is probably a master of keeping things balanced, right? He gave both his wife and Bai Yueguang pink diamond jewelry. A necklace for his wife, a bracelet for Bai Yueguang, a perfect pair.
Lu Jinghuai paused as he retracted his hand. It was a fairly ordinary sentence, so why did it sound so strange when Lin Yan thought about it?
Song Jingya was also obviously happy about Lu Jinghuai's gift. She tilted her head and asked coquettishly, "Did brother choose the gift for me?"
Lu Jinghuai said "hmm" lightly.
Lin Yan couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. Lu Jinghuai is really shameless!
The gift was clearly prepared by Secretary Ji. Before the two got in the car, Lin Yan saw with her own eyes Secretary Ji handing the gift bag to Lu Jinghuai.
Song Jingya had no idea what was going on. When she heard Lu Jinghuai's response, her eyes lit up and she took out the bracelet and put it on her hand.
"Thank you, brother! I love it!"
The eyes of the people around were swirling between the three of them, but Lin Yan was particularly calm and received a lot of sympathetic looks from people.
After entering the banquet hall, Lu Jinghuai couldn't stay with Lin Yan all the time. It seemed that he saw an acquaintance, so they greeted each other and started chatting.
They seemed to be talking about work, and Lin Yan didn't quite understand what was being said. She lowered her voice, greeted Lu Jinghuai, and planned to go to the dining table to eat something to fill her stomach.
Lu Jinghuai said "hmm".
Lin Yancai left silently, but when she arrived at the dining table, she saw exquisite little desserts on it, and she had no idea how they tasted.
Lin Yan picked out a small piece of cake and was about to eat it.
"Mrs. Lu." It was an unfamiliar call, but Lin Yan inexplicably felt that it was her that was being called.
Lin Yan looked towards the source of the sound helplessly. There were two or three strange women, who seemed to be the people surrounding Song Jingya just now.
She didn't know any of them, but out of politeness she stopped and looked at them.
"Hello, how many ladies are you?"
Lin Yan was sure that she didn't know these rich young ladies.
"My last name is Tong."
Miss Tong said lightly, then glanced at Lin Yan, "I heard that Madam Lu was brought back to the Lin family a month before the wedding. This must be her first time attending a cruise dinner like this, right? How does Madam Lu feel?"
A very impolite remark.
Lin Yan instantly understood. Was this person here to laugh at her? Lin Yan guessed, feeling somewhat helpless at the same time.
Whether it's Song Jingya or Miss Tong in front of her, bullying is just a few words of verbal derogation?
"That's right, I haven't participated in it. As for how I feel about it... I think it's quite interesting." Lin Yan didn't show much emotion and answered honestly.
Miss Tong sneered, "You're such a petty person! No wonder you're trying to interfere with the relationship between Lu Jinghuai and Yaya. They've been childhood sweethearts for so many years, and in the end, it all falls on you, Madam Lu?"
Oh no, I was trying to stand up for Song Jingya.
Lin Yan understood completely that all these guys were dancing with her, treating her as a soft persimmon?
Lin Yan's face turned serious.
"Miss Tong, since you know I just returned to the Lin family, you should know that I don't understand what you mean by childhood sweethearts."
"I married Lu Jinghuai at my parents' arrangement. If Lu Jinghuai really had feelings for Miss Song, he shouldn't have agreed to marry me in the first place. Of course, he can ask me for a divorce at any time now, and I won't refuse."
"Or you can ask Lu Jinghuai why he chose me."
Lin Yan smiled as she spoke, hinting, "Lu Jinghuai is over there. Do you need me to call him over to talk to Miss Lin?"
Miss Tong naturally didn't dare to ask Lu Jinghuai. Finally, she glared at Lin Yan angrily and said, "Mrs. Lu is really sharp-tongued."
At this time, on the other side, in the corner, a man was looking at the confrontation between Lin Yan and several young ladies with great interest.
"She's good-looking and interesting, but she's still Lu Jinghuai's wife after all. You want me to touch Lu Jinghuai's wife?" Jiang Nan said as he glanced at his sister Jiang Yue beside him.
Jiang Yue snorted, her tone filled with disdain: "She's just a discarded child thrown out by the Lin family. Lu Jinghuai doesn't have much affection for her."
"If Lu Jinghuai really cared about her, how could he give Song Jingya a gift in front of her?"
"Don't worry, if something really happens, Song Jingya will naturally help us." Finally, Jiang Yue seemed to be worried that Jiang Nan would not agree, so she added a sentence as a guarantee.
Jiang Nan's eyes flashed, and he nodded without hesitation: "Okay."
Lu Jinghuai is a famous young talent in North City. I don’t know how many elders compare their own children with Lu Jinghuai.
Lu Jinghuai's wife didn't know what it felt like, and Jiang Nan raised the corner of his mouth.
