The man she married was fat and short. Apart from coming from a wealthy family and being able to bring some benefits to her family's business, he did not meet Qiao Yi's standards for a husband.
In her heart, Jing Yan is the person she loves but cannot have.
But the only benefit of marrying him is that he has many brand-name bags and luxury goods, and lives a life that is comparable to that of a young lady.
After returning to China, she immediately joined the socialite circle.
These socialites have free time all day long, either having tea parties or going on trips and shopping trips together.
Just today, Qiao Yi was invited to a tea party for socialites.
She was wearing all branded clothes, which were much more exquisite than when she was abroad before.
Because of her cheerful and lively personality, these socialites treated Qiao Yi as a friend and chatted about gossip with her.
It's just some topics about men.
Qiao Yi's mind was full of Jing Yan, and she had no interest in joining their conversation.
It was not until these people started discussing the Jing family's affairs that Qiao Yi joined in.
One of the socialites said, "It's incredible. Jing Zhiyang has been cuckolded for so long that no one has noticed for over 20 years."
Another said: "I have to say that Xie Shizhu's character is not good, but her vision is still good. She didn't marry Jingcheng, otherwise she would have regretted it."
When Qiao Yi heard this, the smile on her lips froze, and even the fingertips holding the coffee turned bluish-white.
"Don't mention her," the socialite complained. "Why would she marry Jing Yan? Who here isn't better than her? Does Jing Yan have poor eyesight?"
Then, someone looked at Qiao Yi and said, "Aren't you close to Xie Shizhu? Call her over later."
Qiao Yi thought that these women were jealous of Xie Shizhu, and when Xie Shizhu came over, they would definitely mock her between the lines.
Anyway, she didn't interrupt and just watched Xie Shizhu's frustrated look quietly, which was also quite refreshing.
Qiao Yi nodded, "Okay, I'll give her a call."
She dialed Xie Shizhu's cell phone number, and the call was picked up shortly afterwards. A woman's cold voice came out: "Qiao Yi, I heard you've returned to China?"
Before Qiao Yi could open her mouth to speak, Xie Shizhu spoke first. She was silent for a few seconds and replied, "Yes, I happened to be playing outside. You should come too. I missed you after not seeing you for a long time."
Xie Shizhu said: "Okay, send me the address."
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Yi sent the location to Xie Shizhu on WeChat.
"Of course," said a socialite, "We couldn't even invite Xie Shizhu, but we didn't expect her to come just by your call."
Qiao Yi smiled proudly. Xie Shizhu only had her as a friend, so naturally he would listen to her and do whatever she said.
As soon as they heard that Xie Shizhu was coming, the socialites started picking up their small mirrors to touch up their makeup, surely because they didn't want to lose to Xie Shizhu.
At this time, Xie Shizhu was still out shopping, carrying a lot of bags in his hands, which was not very convenient.
So I called the chef at home, and he arrived half an hour later and drove the fully loaded car back home.
Xie Shizhu planned to take a taxi, but the cars here were basically full. As a second choice, Xie Shizhu could only take the bus.
An hour later.
The socialites were chatting when they caught a glimpse of a woman in a white knitted cardigan out of the corner of their eyes. They all shut their mouths in unison.
Before Xie Shizhu came in, the celebrities' eyes flashed with sarcasm, saying, "She's married into the Jing family, why is she still taking the bus? How shabby! People who don't know her would think she married Jingcheng."
After saying this, the socialites covered their mouths and laughed.
Qiao Yi lowered his head with a smile on his lips.
She thought Xie Shizhu lived a very fulfilling life, but now it seems that he is not even as good as the man she married.
Xie Shizhu is obviously a rich lady, but she makes herself look like a low-class person.
This shows that Jing Yan doesn’t love Xie Shizhu as much as she imagined.
Under the gaze of a group of people, Xie Shizhu pushed open the glass door and walked in slowly. His eyes automatically locked onto Qiao Yi's face, and he stretched out his hand and waved to her.
Qiao Yi smiled and stood up to greet Xie Shizhu.
Xie Shizhu hugged her and said with a smile, "I've been busy discussing the wedding recently, so I haven't been able to see you in time. Welcome back."
Qiao Yi said hypocritically: "It's okay, please sit down."
After Xie Shizhu sat down, he glanced at the faces of several socialites with a faint look, as if he didn't see them, and was only communicating with Qiao Yi.
The socialites felt a little embarrassed, and they felt even more uncomfortable when they saw Xie Shizhu leaving them aside.
Qiao Yi was still hoping these people would tease Xie Shizhu, so she quickly turned the topic to the socialite and introduced her, "Xiaozhu, these are the friends I met when I returned to China."
Xie Shizhu took the time to glance at them and said lazily, "The circle is really small."
The socialites looked at each other and seized their opportunity.
"You've been looking better and better lately," the socialite said. "Which salon did you get your beauty treatment at? Could you recommend it to me, or maybe we can go there together next time?"
"Yes, yes, take me with you," another socialite smiled warmly at Xie Shizhu.
Now Xie Shizhu is marrying Jing Yan. The Xie family is already a leader in Haicheng, and marrying with Jing Yan is almost a powerful alliance.
So they all wanted to have a good relationship with Xie Shizhu. After all, socialites are not stupid and no one would resist money.
However, he only dared to laugh when Xie Shizhu was not looking, to satisfy the jealousy in his heart.
When they saw Xie Shizhu in person, they all pounced on him like dogs.
Xie Shizhu glanced at Qiao Yi who was left out in the cold, then looked away and raised his eyebrows: "Okay, when there's a chance I'll treat you to a spa at the beauty salon."
"That's great. We don't have WeChat yet, right? I'll scan you."
