Everyone started asking questions all at once:
"What's your name?"
"How old is he? Did you hire a man in his seventies again, just like last year?"
"Male or female?"
Qi Baixue crossed her arms over her chest, adopting a superior attitude, and said, "A handsome and promising young man, only in his thirties. I won't say his name, since you wouldn't know him anyway."
"Tang Lu".
Someone called out a name, and everyone's eyes turned to it.
Qi Baixue was instantly no longer the center of attention.
She glared hatefully at the center of the crowd.
Tang Lu was the most beautiful girl in the class. She was admitted as a music major. East China University of Political Science and Law has high academic requirements for music majors, but they can choose their own major after entering the university.
Tang Lu was admitted with her special talent in guzheng music. She is also very good at classical dance and has an outstanding temperament. She has many suitors, including a super-rich man.
After graduation, she neither studied nor worked, but instead got married and became a wealthy wife.
Xu Wan looked over and saw that Tang Lu wasn't dressed as conspicuously as she had in college. Instead, she was wearing a high-necked shirt, which, although made of a thin material, wouldn't be cool in August.
Someone jokingly asked her, "Are you dressed so warmly because your husband was too passionate and left you covered in hickeys?"
As a marriage lawyer, she immediately realized what Tang Lu might be going through.
What she's covering under that shirt is likely not traces of lovemaking, but rather traces of domestic violence.
Everyone arrived, so we went to the restaurant together.
The dinner was held at a five-star hotel across from the school.
It's not just them who chose this place; many class reunions also choose this location.
As soon as they entered the private room, Qi Baixue's gaze fell on Xu Wan.
"Xu Wan, I asked you before if you were coming and you refused. I thought you weren't doing well after graduation. It seems you're doing quite well. Not only have you learned how to do makeup, but your clothes are also nice."
Qi Baixue's words sounded like she was praising Xu Wan, but her tone was somewhat sarcastic.
When I was in school, among the several beauties in my class, the most eye-catching and outstanding was Tang Lu, who could sing and dance.
Then came Xu Wan.
Qi Baixue believed she was just as good-looking as Xu Wan, came from a better family, and was better at dressing up. But the boys seemed blind to her, all preferring Xu Wan, who only had a few outfits to change into.
After graduation, Xu Wan had excellent grades and could have been recommended for postgraduate studies, but she chose to work instead.
Law graduates have a tough time finding jobs, and I thought she wouldn't do well, but she seems to be doing quite well.
Xu Wan put on makeup and wore a beautiful dress today.
Boys immediately surrounded her.
"Xu Wan is a stunning beauty; with just a little makeup, she is absolutely breathtaking."
"Stop looking, or your eyes will get stuck."
"Which law firm does Xu Wan work at now? She seems to be doing quite well. I wish I had started working too. Graduate school is too tough."
Seeing that the boys' attention was mostly on Xu Wan, Qi Baixue felt very unhappy.
She stared at Xu Wan for a long time before saying, "Xu Wan, this dress of yours... looks familiar."
"What's wrong?" Xu Wan asked.
The dress she's wearing was designed by Shirahoshi, and according to her, no one in China should wear it.
Qi Baixue stood up from her seat, walked over to Xu Wan and looked her over carefully for a while before saying, "Xu Wan, you can't be serious, can you? It's just a class reunion, and you're wearing a fake?"
What evidence do you have to prove that this is a counterfeit?
Xu Wan remained calm.
She had already guessed why Qi Baixue had asked that question.
She's probably seen Bai Xing's dress before; it's very expensive, and she's certain Bai Xing won't buy it.
However, Qi Baixue's guess was not wrong.
She really couldn't afford it.
Her classmates were unaware of her situation, and some boys spoke up for her:
"What do you mean by counterfeit or not? You girls are so focused on brands. Ninety percent of the CK underwear we men wear is fake. Did we say anything about it?"
"These days, aren't all those stores just copying each other? What's the difference between the real and the fake?"
"It's a rare class reunion, so please don't say such hurtful things."
Qi Baixue wouldn't listen to any advice. She walked over to Xu Wan and said directly, "The pink dress you're wearing is a new design by independent designer SW this year. There's only one, and it's not for sale. Where did you buy this? The fabric looks cheap, and the workmanship is rough. You didn't even know to buy a better fake."
She was certain that the dress Xu Wan was wearing was fake!
