CHAPTER 1044 I THINK I'VE SEEN YOU SOMEWHERE BEFORE
When Jiang Ning turned back, Su Mei and Lin Yuzhen came walking out. He immediately put away his phone and stood up as though he was completely blown away by what he saw.
"Wifey, you didn't tell me you had a sister."
PFFT!
Lin Yuzhen and Su Mei couldn't help laughing.
Even though she knew Jiang Ming was just teasing them, they couldn't help chortling.
"You have such a glib tongue!" said Su Mei. "Don't make fun of me!"
"I'm not glib-tongued here since I'm just stating the truth," said Jiang Ning with a straight face. "Are you ready? Let's go in."
It was his first time taking the initiative to slap someone in the face. And it felt somewhat different.
Panshan Hotel was the highest end hotel
in the city, so it naturally came with a matching price tag.
Gao Xin picked this location clearly to show her peers how well she was doing.
Everyone knew it was just all for vanity's sake, but no one wanted to be outdone.
Any previously unworn branded clothes were all taken out to be ironed for wearing. They even took out those long-forgotten leather shoes to be shined.
They piled on all the jewelry that they could onto themselves and spared no effort!
Su Mei turned up dressed simply. Other than buying a new outfit, she only wore a gold ring on her finger. And it was the wedding ring that Lin Wen gave her when they were married.
"Oh my, you're all here! We haven't met in 20 years, I believe!"
"Wang, you haven't aged a day. You really keep yourself in good shape!"
"Xu, I heard your son's company is about to get listed! He's so outstanding!"
This class gathering looked more like Gao Xin's own cocktail party.
She was richly bejeweled and dressed in a posh tailor made outfit. Her hair was grape-red and made her seem slightly younger. Just those earrings she was wearing alone were worth a fortune.
She walked around in her bright red high heels and exuded supreme elegance.
"Did you bring your children along with you? Didn't I say you can bring them? Maybe some of them will hit it off well and get together. It'll be an assuring match since we're classmates and know each other well."
Gao Xin kept entertaining everyone as her eyes scanned the place.
The moment she saw Su Mei enter the hotel, her eyes lit up. She clipped over in her high heels immediately.
"Su Mei!" said Gao Xin as she grabbed her hand. She beamed and said, "I thought you weren't coming!"
Su Mei smiled, "You especially invited me, so how could I not come?”
The moment the two women greeted each other, Jiang Ning detected a murderous air in the atmosphere.
It was the first time he felt that the battles he had experienced were nothing compared to fights between women.
Theirs was far scarier.
“Of course, you had to come,” said Gao Xin happily, “We only saw you a few times since graduation. Is this your daughter?"
She turned to look at Lin Yuzhen and said, "I only saw you once when you were born. You're all grown up now."
"Hello, Auntie Gao," said Lin Yuzhen politely as she nodded.
"Yes yes yes! I'm very well!" replied Gao Xin before turning towards Jiang Ning.
Then the expression on her face instantly altered.
She had gone to ask about Su Mei and found out that this son-in-law had married into the Lin family!
She also heard that he used to be a beggar and was a little mentally unstable.
Lin Yuzhen was quite pretty and the Lins seemed to be doing well now. But in order to hold onto their family assets, they deliberately found a loon to marry into their family. It made her gloat over their misfortune for a long time.
"Auntie Gao, I think I have seen you somewhere before," said Jiang Ning without waiting for Gao Xin to say anything. owns all © content.
