In front of everyone, Fang Ai presented Huang Yue with an exquisitely packaged box.
"I saw this set of jewelry at a jewelry store before, and I'm giving it to you."
"Thank you, cousin."
"I also picked it out at a jewelry store."
"Mine too."
Qin Xiang and Xie Ya also gave Huang Yue the gifts they brought. Other people also gave Huang Yue gifts.
Huang Yue's classmates were astonished when they saw the expensive gifts.
Some of them pooled their money to buy face cream, some bought notebooks and pens, and others pooled their money to buy fountain pens.
Their gifts were nothing compared to the gifts Fang Ai and her friends received.
Zhong Qing, one of Huang Yue's little followers, spoke up.
"Jiang Yue refused to attend the birthday party. She must know that today's birthday party is very grand. She has never seen anything like it before, and she is afraid of losing face, so she did not come."
"Qingqing is right. How can Jiang Yue be compared to Huang Yue?"
"Huang Yue's birthday party costs several thousand yuan. Jiang Yue probably won't earn that much money in her whole life."
"Yes, yes, she must be afraid that she won't be able to suppress her envy, jealousy and hatred, so she didn't come."
Most of the students who came were from other provinces. Their families rarely had multi-story houses; most lived in mud-brick houses. This was truly the first time they had ever seen such a grand birthday banquet.
Huang Yue entered the private room and greeted her friends at the other two tables with a smile.
These people were certainly different from her classmates. Their families were all powerful, wealthy, and influential in the capital, unlike those country bumpkins.
Huang Yue also called Zhao Jin in.
"Xiang'er, you are Zhao Jin's cousin. I'll invite Zhao Jin's classmate in to chat with you."
Hearing this, Qin Xiang glanced at Zhao Jin at the door. Zhao Jin was wearing a new outfit today, along with a watch that cost two or three hundred yuan. He also had a haircut and a new pair of glasses. Now, he didn't look like someone from an ordinary family; he seemed to come from a well-off family.
Zhao Jin greeted everyone with a smile.
Out of consideration for Qin Xiang, Fang Ai and Xie Ya also smiled and nodded at Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin sat down next to Qin Xiang and looked at her.
Qin Xiang was dressed up for the occasion today, carrying a Dior bag, a gift from Grandma Duan, who said it was bought by a relative from Hong Kong. It was very expensive, and Qin Xiang rarely took it out.
Qin Xiang wore heavy makeup, and her appearance was almost completely different from before.
When Zhao Jin thought of Qin Xiang from before, and then looked at Qin Xiang in front of him, he felt that Qin Xiang had changed so much.
However, Qin Xiang is much prettier now than before.
Fang Ai glanced at the people in the hall outside and saw them carrying plates and eating as they walked around. She then spoke up.
"Didn't you say you'd invite the whole class? Why is it only this few?"
"Some people said they had something to do, while others said they needed to study," Huang Yue said irritably, thinking of Jiang Yue.
"I invited that woman surnamed Jiang, but she refused to come. Otherwise, I would have made her pay today."
When Qin Xiang heard the surname Jiang, she remembered that Jiang Yue and Huang Yue were classmates, so she deliberately asked.
"The person you're talking about with the surname Jiang, you wouldn't happen to be Jiang Yue, would you?"
Upon hearing Qin Xiang mention Jiang Yue, Huang Yue looked at Qin Xiang in surprise.
"Xiang'er, you know Jiang Yue too?"
Huang Yue then realized that Qin Xiang seemed to be a graduate of that high school as well, so it was normal for her to know Jiang Yue.
"She's so mean, she's been bullying me ever since I started school..."
