Ever since Li Meng and Du Sisi graduated, they had been flattered by people in order to curry their favor. However, they had never experienced this sort of spotlight where they were met with slight mockery, not to mention that it was in front of a huge crowd. Therefore, the embarra.s.sment that they were going through at that moment was indescribable.
Li Meng could only force a smile with a stiff face. “Who knew that a child would take an adult's words so seriously. Qingchen, we were simply joking with your mother. As for you, Wei Wei, who knew you were hiding such a handsome man at home? Why didn't you say so? We could have come and taken a look! Why did you have to hide him?”
She thought that Helian Wei Wei would be embarra.s.sed and would not follow up with the conversation if she had uttered those words.
However, who would have expected Helian Wei Wei to smile at her with such seductive, devilish flattery, “Oh, it's because he's just so handsome. That's why I had to hide him. I didn't mean for you to see him. After all, I will be so distressed if people were to come up to him and flirt.”
Helian Wei Wei's gaze was clear as she said this. She then turned to catch a glimpse at the female students.
She made others blush and pale with such a short and concise sentence. Helian Wei Wei's eyes were full of hatred but she had no choice but to suppress her emotions to avoid getting humiliated.
“Wei Wei, you two are so compatible.” A female cla.s.smate giggled lightly, with a sincere heart of blessing.
Her words were true and sincere. Those two were extremely compatible in both appearance and height.
It was also because of the fact that Helian Wei Wei emitted a stronger sense of evilness and beauty than the rest of the girls. Regardless of the environment or her clothes, her aura could not be contained.
She had become the woman she aspired to be when she was younger, neither servile nor overbearing, as dependable and firm as time.
If it were anyone else standing next to Baili Jia Jue, they would have been greatly overshadowed…
Baili Jia Jue was extremely pleased to hear such praise, hence he expressed his grat.i.tude with a smile.
At that time, the female cla.s.smate was not aware that her words of blessing were the reason that led her to be employed by Jue Wei Group and became a member of their legal team later on.
Before the whole thing had begun, Du Sisi who was standing by the side had terrible palpitations. She could sense that the man's voice carried magic power and m.u.f.fled magnetism that shone through. Now that she was hearing it from a closer distance, that voice was as clear and bright as the spring wind in March. It penetrated through one's heart and gave out a special sort of comfort.
How did Helian Wei Wei get so lucky to be able to meet such a man?
No matter how handsome he is, I believe he must be really poor, or else why would Helian Wei Wei be so broke!
When she came to this conclusion, Du Sisi's heart finally calmed down. She led the people into a private room and smiled, saying, “Wei Wei, after hearing what you said, you should know that we aren't young anymore. We aren't some naive, dumb maiden. We can't just judge a man based on his looks, we need to find someone who has a successful career. Only then can we consider his looks! Your boyfriend must have never been to the Emperor Hotel. You need to take good care of him later. Come, let's order. Order some fruits first, I'm so hungry.”
After saying that, Du Sisi turned and looked at the server. “Bring the menu.”
Emperor Hotel had always been famous for its excellent service. One private room would be served by three to five servers. Besides serving dishes one at a time, they were also responsible for opening the wine. Each server had been trained professionally and they wore bespoke butler uniforms in a suit and tie which were impeccably dressed. They all looked cla.s.sy at a glance.
At Du Sisi's command, the server paused and finally replied, “Please wait a moment.” Then, he exited the elegant private room.
Du Sisi wrinkled her eyebrows. Why wait a moment? Shouldn't they pa.s.s us the menu immediately? Is the food not ready to be served yet?
Whatever, it's just a trivial matter.
Du Sisi turned over to face her cla.s.smates, grinning ear to ear. “Don't be shy, feel free to choose your seat. This private room is ours today. My uncle has settled this for us so no one will come over to interrupt us!”
“Sisi, you're being too generous!” Those girls laughed and sat down. They pretended to catch a glimpse at Helian Wei Wei. “Certainly, what my mother taught me was right. When we're looking for a boyfriend, we must find one that can pay for our things. It doesn't really matter how he looks. I heard that the chairman of Jue Wei Group is wealthy yet handsome. Sisi, you need to hold on tight. If things work out between both of you, then you can show off to others your perfect boyfriend.”
“Watch what you're saying. Don't you know Sisi well enough? She gets shy easily. From what I see, I guess she has already gone on a date with that person. Their relationship must be quite desirable. I bet both of them are close to being in a relationship at this stage. There's no need to wait and see if things work out between them.”
“Do you really know Chairman Jue?”
The person who asked this question was Baili Shangxie. His lips were still curved up, retaining his smile. His grin revealed an aura that solely belonged to a little devil.
Du Sisi was shaken by the child's sudden question. Her guilty conscience made her afraid to look around but she quickly calmed down.
What am I afraid of?
He is just a child that knows very little.
In this field, besides Li Meng's husband who has once seen Young Master Jue from afar, I am the only one who is able to enter the Jue Wei Group.
Even if I claimed that I have seen him, I don't believe anyone would dare to expose me.
“Little boy, why are you asking such a question?” Du Sisi's voice was sweet. “Of course I've seen him. Aunty and the chairman are really good friends.”
Upon hearing that, Baili Shangxie sneaked a peek at Baili Jia Jue who was motionless and slowly let out a smile. “Oh really?” A friend that couldn't recognize my Imperial Father?
Ha, if she has really met my Imperial Father, how could she not recognize him?
Du Sisi was baffled by Baili Shangxie's smile. However, she did not take the words to heart because, in her opinion, he was merely a wimpy kid.
Baili Shangxie did not prompt further. Nevertheless, it did not mean that it was a truce although he was not present from the start.
Judging from the current situation, this bunch of people, especially that foolish lady must have bullied his Imperial Mother before he came.
He would not easily let go of those who had bullied his Imperial Mother.
Little Qingchen sat next to Baili Shangxie as he whispered in his elder brother's ear, reporting about the details of their enemy, “The person who spoke just now is called Du Sisi. It was her who said to have a blind date with dad. She was also the one who claimed that her uncle is a senior executive in an entertainment company.”
“Which entertainment company?” Baili Shangxie thought coolly that he would surely shut it down when he returned.
Little Qingchen lifted the demon toy before replying, “Jue Wei.”
Baili Shangxie thought to himself. This cannot be shut down though…
