This is a classic underdog story. With the protagonist's halo, the entire hall was filled with gasps of amazement, and some people looked on with astonishment.
Actually, Bai Lian's background is what it is; she simply can't compare to the female supporting character who was raised in luxury from a young age.
Any of the prominent young ladies present would be no less impressive than her.
However, she couldn't resist the aura of the ugly duckling transforming into a swan; at least compared to a year ago, Bai Lian was much prettier.
The female supporting character looked terrible, barely managing to hold back her outburst.
Today is her birthday party, but she was overshadowed by others. She's always been very proud, and she's so angry she could tear up the white silk ribbon.
However, Bai Lian's status is now completely different from before. No one knows what methods she used, but in less than two years abroad, she has been gilded and her status has not changed much.
From a third-rate reporter who couldn't even ask questions properly, he suddenly became a translator for the embassy staff.
Bai Lian's ascent was too fast, catching the female supporting character off guard.
Not only her appearance, but also her inner qualities, are much more refined than they were two years ago.
His speech was elegant and refined, and he would occasionally throw in a couple of trendy English words, just like some of the pretentious overseas returnees in his social class.
Bai Lian boasted in front of the female supporting character, and finally threw out a harsh remark: "Just you wait, all those things you laughed at me for two years ago will be used to slap you in the face in the future."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for the female supporting character's response, she turned in her high heels and walked towards Xi Junyan.
Bai Lian's heart pounded, and the years had left no trace on his face.
All that time transformed into composure and restraint, surrounding him and transforming into a mature and charming temperament.
Bai Lian walked with a reserved gait, like Cinderella in her glass slippers, step by step toward her prince.
This scene was clearly a reunion, and Yimu tactfully turned away.
He had only turned halfway around when Xi Junyan grabbed his arm. "Where are you going?"
What else can I do but make room for you two to catch up? It's not appropriate for me to stay here as a third wheel.
Yi Mu placed the wine glass on the tray held by a passing waiter. "I'm going to the restroom. I'll be right back."
Xi Junyan frowned, but before he could say anything, Yi Mu had already disappeared into the crowd and vanished in the blink of an eye.
Bai Lian came up with a wine glass, the light shining on her, making her look radiantly white; she had truly undergone a complete transformation.
"How have you been these past few years?" she asked softly, her eyes holding a thousand unspoken words.
Nishi Junyan's face was expressionless.
"It's good that you're back. Give me an address, and I'll send you the divorce papers in a couple of days. Please sign them."
Bai Lian came to find him, her heart filled with passionate love.
Although I had already mentally prepared myself for the possibility that Nishi Junyan would resent my abrupt departure two years ago, it shouldn't have ended like this.
Her carefully constructed facade crumbled instantly, and without a second thought, she shrieked, "You have a new lover? Who is it?"
Xi Junyan didn't even bother to glance at her. "What's it to you?"
Bai Lian exclaimed excitedly, "How can it not be my business? I am your wife!"
Xi Junyan sneered mockingly: "Wife? The wife who couldn't wait to go abroad after the Xi family fell, and then came back to appear arm in arm with another man?"
Bai Lian was secretly delighted. His saying that meant he still cared about her.
She stepped forward, reached out and took Xi Junyan's arm, pressing her round breasts against him, acting coquettishly as before.
"Junyan, Zhong Yue and I are just friends, not the kind of relationship you're thinking of."
At that time, the family was in chaos, and you were in jail. As a woman, I couldn't help the family. Just then, an opportunity arose...
"Look, I'm back now. How's Grandpa's health? I bought a lot of tonics. I'll go see him after the banquet. What do you say?"
What do you think? Wishful thinking.
