I raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "You can't even take a joke. It seems that Miss Xu has a broad mind, but she's still a little narrow-minded."
I gestured with the tip of my little finger, my smile tinged with provocation.
"Jiang Wan! Don't go too far!"
Xu Qianning suddenly got angry and instinctively tried to step forward, but was pulled back by the man next to her.
The man whispered something, and Xu Qianning's face grew even angrier, filled with intense jealousy. "So you've hooked up with Young Master Su, haven't you? A divorced woman with a father in jail, how dare you be with him? You're utterly shameless."
"Xu Qianning, do you want me to give you a mirror so you can see your twisted face? Tsk tsk, even the White Bone Demon isn't as ugly as you are now."
"You—Jiang Wan, let me tell you, don't be so smug! These days, even married couples can get divorced, let alone just boyfriend and girlfriend. Old Master Su will never agree to Su Erge being with you. You'd better enjoy yourselves for a few days!"
Grandpa Su?
My heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Xu Qianning had indeed visited the Su family mansion and met the old master of the Su family.
I've been to Su Garden several times, and I've met Madam Su the most. I've only met Su Shenglin's father once.
As for the renowned and decorated old man, I only know that he also lives in Su Garden, but I have never met him.
But Xu Qianning was able to see it.
Even though I was a little disappointed, I still smiled and said, "Even if we can't be together, at least I had it, which is much better than some pathetic people who can only fantasize."
"You—" Xu Qianning bared her teeth in anger.
"Jiang Wan!" Li Yunwei's voice suddenly came, and then she quickly stepped forward and took my hand. "I'm sorry, they insisted on making me finish that hand of cards, so I came down late—are you alright?"
I shook my head. "It's okay, let's go."
Li Yunwei knows Xu Qianning; after all, my feud with her started in college.
So when Li Yunwei passed by Xu Qianning, she rolled her eyes at her without any politeness and muttered, "That high-tech look, where did you find a doctor? She looks like an alien."
Xu Qianning appeared to have had her eyes opened, her nose bridge augmented, her cheekbones shaved, and she also had Botox injections. As a result, she had big eyes and a pointed oval face—she really did look like an alien!
I've always felt that her face looks strange, but I couldn't find the right words to describe it. After Li Yunwei said that, it suddenly dawned on me!
"Li Yunwei, say that again if you dare!" Xu Qianning was so angry that she was about to hit someone, but she was stopped by the man next to her.
"Let go! Why do you keep pulling me?"
"Qianqian, we can't afford to offend this woman, so please bear with it."
"What's so intimidating about her! She's just a bully using someone else's power! Second Brother Su will dump her sooner or later!"
"Let's wait until she gets dumped before we talk about it. Don't cause any trouble now."
The argument was still going on behind us, with Xu Qianning and her companion pulling at each other, but Li Yunwei and I didn't care and went straight inside.
Once inside the elevator, Li Yunwei turned to look at me and asked curiously, "Is the 'Second Brother Su' that Xu Qianning mentioned your new boyfriend?"
“Yes,” I nodded, my smile a little helpless. “When I saw her at the last school anniversary celebration, she said that after returning to China, her elders would take her to visit the Su family. It seems that she has already gone.”
"What do you mean?" Li Yunwei's expression was even more surprised. "Didn't Madam Su like you quite a bit? Now that her son has finally won you over, she's taken a fancy to another daughter-in-law?"
I frowned slightly, a series of thoughts racing through my mind, and shook my head, saying, "It should have nothing to do with Madam Su."
"Who does that concern?"
"Old Master Su."
Li Yunwei's eyes widened. "That retired general from the capital?"
"Um."
We looked at each other and realized, without prior agreement, that there was an obstacle between Su Shenglin and me.
That's really melodramatic.
However, this was to be expected.
Originally, Su Shenglin and I were from two different worlds, and our union is no different from birds and fish falling in love.
If there were no obstacles or difficulties from beginning to end, then the laws of the world and the class order would have to be rewritten.
I was mentally prepared, so I processed it quickly.
As I always say, enjoy the present moment first, and worry about the future later.
I had a great afternoon with a group of girlfriends. As the saying goes, you're lucky in love but unlucky in gambling. Today I was the only one who lost, and I lost so much that my WeChat balance was wiped out.
During dinner that evening, Su Shenglin called to ask where I was.
I was feeling bad about my wallet, so I couldn't help but complain to him.
He laughed heartily on the other end of the phone.
"You're still laughing? They all say this is called being lucky in love but unlucky in gambling, it's all your fault, you know?"
"Yes, it is indeed my fault, so I'll reimburse you," Su Shenglin said with a smile.
