Chapter 226 The Retired Emperor and His Little Wife (Bonus Chapter 1)
Time flies, and seven years later, Class 1 of Senior 3 from No. 1 High School finally reunited at a class reunion.
It wouldn't be accurate to say they all gathered, because two people had to be absent due to important life events.
Gao Ling is sending out wedding invitations. Don't get me wrong, she got married a year ago. She's just sending out invitations for the two people who couldn't attend.
The English class representative opened the invitation and was deeply moved, "I never imagined that these two people who always bicker would actually get married."
The sports committee member said, "What's so strange about that? One of them is the class representative for Chinese, and the other is the class representative for math. The former bosses the latter around like a grandson. It would be strange if they weren't together."
The red invitation card reads "Shu Xue" for the groom and "Yu Wen" for the bride.
One person remarked, "If I hadn't seen the names on the invitation, I would have almost forgotten what those two people were called."
They kept calling the class representative for Chinese and math, forgetting to even call them by their real names.
Someone jokingly complained, "Class monitor, we know these two are getting married and we're too busy, but they don't have to skip the class reunion."
After Gao Ling finished delivering the last invitation, she sat on the sofa, picked up a glass of water, and the water reflected the diamond ring on her finger, making it sparkle slightly. "Yu Wen wasn't feeling well, so Shu Xue accompanied her to the checkup."
At this moment, the students, who were already adults, instantly revealed knowing looks.
Back then, many people asked Yu Wen when she planned to marry Shu Xue. She said she wanted to enjoy a few more years of unmarried life, but less than two months after she said that, she's now getting married to Shu Xue.
They boarded the train first and are now busy buying their tickets.
The English class representative sighed, "If only Ms. Wen could come."
Someone chuckled and said, "Teacher Wen is pregnant with her second child. If you want to see her, you can bring some gifts and go back to your alma mater to visit her a few days ago."
Gao Ling glanced at the man sitting opposite her without making a sound.
Su Nuo is still very quiet. He will not take the initiative to join the conversation unless someone else talks to him. He is said to have won many awards in college. Right after graduation, he was invited to be a legal advisor for the Lu family's big company. He has never lost a case he takes on. He is a rising star.
He's good-looking, has a good job, and earns a high income; he's the perfect husband in the eyes of many girls, yet he's still single.
A glass of wine appeared in front of Su Nuo. He looked up and saw Gao Ling, who had just withdrawn her hand.
Gao Ling said, "It's rare for us to get together like this, so we can let loose a little today."
Su Nuo was silent for a moment, then picked up her glass and said, "Thank you."
The door to the private room opened from the outside, and two people walked in. The woman in the skirt was exquisite and beautiful, while the white-haired man in the suit was reserved and composed.
Someone shouted, "Our class's school beauty and her boyfriend have finally arrived!"
The people who arrived were Xia Zhen and Lu Jin.
After Lu Jin's name was attributed to Xia Zhen, he wasn't angry. Marrying a beautiful and lovely wife meant he was destined to be teased by others from time to time.
Xia Zhen smiled and said, "I'm sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way, so we're late."
Lu Jin said, "I'll pay today."
The others immediately chimed in, "The boss is so generous!"
"We should have made them come later; maybe Lu Jin would have paid the bill next time!"
"You wish!"
The group was laughing and joking, making the private room very lively.
Xia Zhen sat down next to Gao Ling, and Lu Jin naturally sat on the other side of Xia Zhen. Noticing that she glanced at the oranges on the table, Lu Jin picked up an orange, peeled it, and cleaned away the white pith, then handed it to her.
Xia Zhen took a bite of an orange segment and whispered to Gao Ling, "Uncle."
Gao Ling glanced at it.
Xia Zhen said with a grin, "Did you have a fight with your aunt? When Lu Jin and I came here, we saw a poor little guy squatting in the corridor."
Gao Ling said calmly, "If she likes to squat, then let her squat."
Oh, these two are actually arguing.
Xia Zhen secretly nudged Lu Jin's waist with her elbow.
Lu Jin paused for a second, then said, "My aunt is very pitiful."
He wasn't good at reconciling a couple who had a fight, mainly because he and Xia Zhen had never had a fight.
No, they did have conflicts.
For example, when Lu Jin saw that she was so engrossed in online novels that she couldn't extricate herself, he said he would delete all the treasures from her bookshelf, which made her so angry that she ignored him for ten minutes.
Xia Zhen sighed, "My aunt is so beautiful, what if some drunk lecherous man sees her and tries to grope her?"
Gao Ling remained expressionless.
Other classmates came over to talk, chatting about their recent situations. Xia Zhen was Lu Jin's spokesperson, saying whatever came to mind.
The person chatting looked at Gao Ling, "Class monitor, you work at the hospital..."
Gao Ling stood up. "I'm going to the restroom."
She turned and walked out of the private room, closing the door behind her.
Xia Zhen looked at Lu Jin triumphantly.
Lu Jin chuckled softly and took her hand.
Okay, she's the most amazing person in the world.
In the corridor.
A woman with a bright and beautiful face leaned against the wall, squatting in the corner. She was 1.8 meters tall, but now she looked weak and helpless, like a pitiful little thing.
A woman with shoulder-length short hair, chewing on a lollipop, who had been casually passing by, turned back upon hearing the sobbing.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
Lu Yuan didn't even want to lift her head, pretending not to hear.
A beautiful woman was squatting in the corridor of a KTV, crying sadly. This is no small matter!
She showed her police ID and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm a police officer. If you've been bullied anywhere, you can tell me directly, and I'll help you!"
The name written on that document was indeed Lü Wang.
Upon hearing the word "police," Lu Yuan finally raised her head. Her eyes were red and still wet with tears, making her a truly pitiful sight.
Lu Wang cursed inwardly. He had thought that Xia Zhen, that oddball, was the most beautiful... ugh, the most delicate woman in the world. He never expected that there could be such a delicate woman in the world!
She felt that she might have encountered some major case.
Lu Wang cleared his throat. "Don't be nervous. If you've been wronged..."
Lu Yuan said, "Stay away from me. I'm a married woman."
Lü Wang: "?"
Suddenly, Lu Yuan's eyes lit up when she saw something behind Lü Wang. She got up and ran over, calling out, "Lingling!"
Gao Ling remained unmoved, not even glancing at the person who had run up to her side.
Lu Yuan carefully held Gao Ling's hand, her eyes brimming with grievance.
Lu Wang looked back and forth between the two women. Logically, she should have said that they were best friends, but her intuition made her exclaim in horror, "Ice-faced guy, is this your hidden little wife?!"
Gao Ling: "You should call me the Retired Emperor."
Lü Wang's eyelids twitched.
