Looking at Wang Qian now, a wealthy woman, whatever she sacrificed, she got what she wanted.
Gu Yueji thought she wouldn't get to say a word to Wang Qian all night, but unexpectedly, Wang Qian walked straight towards her after a while.
"Yueji, long time no see," she greeted him warmly.
Gu Yueji was taken aback, but returned the smile, "Long time no see."
Wang Qian is no longer the thin and slender woman she was in college; her face is now round and full, making her look every bit the wealthy woman.
"How are you doing now?" Wang Qian sat down next to Gu Yueji, her gaze sweeping over the diamond ring on Gu Yueji's ring finger, and asked in surprise, "You married Ye Zurong?"
Gu Yueji was taken aback, as she hadn't heard that name in a long time. "I broke up with him a long time ago. My husband's name is Ren Jin."
"Oh, why did you break up? Weren't you taking out loans and starting a business with him? You put in so much effort, I thought you two were going to get married. It's such a shame you broke up."
Gu Yueji recalled what Wang Qian had said to her when she moved out of the dormitory. Wang Qian said that her love with Ye Zurong was no greater than hers, and that Gu Yueji was no more noble than Wang Qian. Wang Qian also firmly said that she and Ye Zurong would definitely not last.
Perhaps Wang Qian is right, but her current statement of regret only comes across as ironic and mocking.
Everyone makes different choices, and Gu Yueji was too lazy to explain to her. "There's nothing to regret. I'm married now, my husband treats me very well, and I'm very happy."
Wang Qian carefully observed the expression on Gu Yueji's face and found that it was a genuine smile of happiness. She didn't know why, perhaps because they were both from poor families, she would always unconsciously compare herself to Gu Yueji, and she always wanted to prove that she could live a better life than Gu Yueji.
"You also found a rich husband? I see your husband is quite willing to buy you things."
Gu Yueji's diamond ring couldn't compare to hers, but it was still worth close to 100,000 yuan. Add to that the necklaces, bracelets, and clothes she was wearing, and the man who was willing to buy her these things wouldn't be poor either, at least better off than Ye Zurong.
Looking at Wang Qian's gaze, which held a strange smile, Gu Yueji didn't want to discuss Ren Jin with Wang Qian, and she disliked the feeling of being regarded as one of her own.
"No, we are all ordinary people who have worked hard on our own."
"What do you do for a living now? Are you also a full-time housewife?" Wang Qian asked again.
Gu Yueji has been running an online store and working as a live streamer for several years, but she has never sold goods or posted advertisements on her WeChat Moments, so few people around her know about it.
But this is nothing to hide, Gu Yueji frankly said, "I opened an online clothing store, and I'm currently working as a fitting room host for our store."
Wang Qian looked surprised and bewildered. "A livestreamer? How come you're a livestreamer?"
Gu Yueji asked, puzzled, "What's wrong with being a live streamer?"
Wang Qian then laughed again, "No, not at all. Is being a streamer tiring? What talents do you have to perform? What's the name of your stream? I'll give you some tips too."
Wang Qian's series of questions made Gu Yueji feel uncomfortable.
"I didn't perform any talents, nor did I enable tipping. I just tried on clothes from the store in the live stream to drive traffic to the online store and increase sales."
Wang Qian pretended to be clueless and asked, "Didn't you give any tips? I noticed your clothes and appearance are different now, so I thought you must have received tips from a lot of top donors."
Gu Yueji's smile slowly faded as she coldly stared at Wang Qian.
Xiao Yao, with her fiery temper, said, "Do you think everyone is like you, relying on a man to give you money so you can have money to spend?"
Su Ziran was already sitting next door, and after Wang Qian came over, she turned around to listen to their conversation. As soon as she saw Xiao Yao getting angry, she immediately spoke up for Wang Qian, "Isn't being a streamer all about getting money from other people's tips? What Wang Qian said is true, what's there to be angry about?"
"Who told you that streamers rely on tips? Are you a caveman who has never bought anything online? What nonsense are you spouting!"
Wang Qian casually said, "Maybe I misunderstood. I thought all live streamers wore revealing clothes and sang and danced." Then she continued, "Actually, I also want to shoot some videos and post them online to share my life, but my husband doesn't agree. He says he doesn't like me showing my face in public and just wants me to stay home and enjoy my life."
Su Ziran added sarcastically, "Your family isn't short of money, why would you need to do this kind of sales pitch?"
“Ziran, you can’t say that. We should respect every profession. It’s not easy for her to please herself either.”
Gu Yueji's face turned completely cold.
Situ Ying chuckled and said in her loud voice with undisguised sarcasm, "Your marriage is worse than being in prison. You don't even have the freedom to film a video. But then again, you have to rely on a man for everything you eat and wear, so of course you have to be obedient."
Wang Qian's face stiffened. "No, it's not that. My husband is just worried about me working too hard."
"You've had three children in five years, and you're planning to have a fourth to try for a boy. Doesn't your husband care about how hard it is for you? But your husband is getting so old, you should hurry up and have another child, otherwise his sperm quality will suffer."
Su Ziran immediately jumped up like a dog protecting its master, "Situ Ying, how dare you speak like that!"
"Why are you angry? What I said is true. Isn't Wang Qian trying for a fourth child to have a boy? Isn't her husband getting on in years? Where did I go wrong? There's nothing to be angry about in stating the facts, didn't you say that?"
Su Ziran was rendered speechless by the rebuttal.
Wang Qian was still trying to explain, "It has nothing to do with my husband. He also told me not to have any more children. It's just that I really like children and want a boy."
No one believed her reason, but Situ Ying and the others didn't want to completely break off relations, so they just tacitly understood and didn't expose her.
