“Are you listening to me?”
Ling Jing was still in a daze when Liu Xiyun’s voice sounded. This time, she was obviously dissatisfied. “Let me tell you, it’s fine if you don’t go home, but you have to go with me to the banquet tonight.”
“Mom, I really have something to do.”
“I don’t care what you have to do. I’ll send the address and time to your phone later. You have to appear by yourself at night. Do You Hear Me?”
After Liu Xiyun said that, she didn’t give Ling Jing time to react and directly hung up the phone.
Ling Jing held the phone, thinking that Su Peizhen would also go to the Tian Domain Group’s banquet tonight. Now Liu Xiyun asked him to go again.
What kind of matter was this. Ling Jing threw the phone to the side in annoyance, his face gloomy.
… ..
Su Peizhen had attended many banquets. Other than the last time when she tried to steal Su Qingsang’s limelight, she had failed unexpectedly. She had almost never failed.
Standing in the boutique, she came to pick up the dress she had ordered a few days ago.
The invitation card had arrived not too late, giving her a chance to change the dress she had ordered. She was thin. But her upper body was more impressive than that of an ordinary woman.
In order to keep a low profile, she chose a black dress. The design of the neckline exposed both sides of her shoulders.
The soft muslin began to shrink around her waist, so tight that her waist could not be held. She turned around and looked at herself in the mirror. She was quite satisfied.
At this time, the stylist took out a pair of black high heels and placed them in front of her. Su Peizhen changed into the shoes. She looked at herself from top to bottom. Not bad. She should be able to suppress the crowd.
When Su Peizhen entered the banquet hall, there were already many people there.
Most of them were unfamiliar faces. She did not know many of them. When she saw the mayor of Rongcheng city was also there, she was not surprised at all.
In the past two years, Tian Domain Group had really become more and more powerful. Su Qingsang, who was far away, saw her. She carried the child in her hands to the nanny and walked towards her.
As the wife of the President of the Sky Territory Corporation, she looked elegant and elegant in her aquamarine gown.
She had to admit that Su Qingsang’s temperament was indeed getting better and better because of her marriage to Huo Jinyao.
“Peizhen, you’re here?”
Su qingsang smiled amiably and said, “There are a lot of guests today. I’m afraid I Won’t be able to entertain them. However, I have a few friends that I met after I came to Rongcheng. May I introduce them to you? I have a partner too?”
“No need.”Su Peizhen shook her head. “You go and busy yourself. I can take care of myself.”
“Alright then.”She knew Su Peizhen’s personality and it was useless to say more. Su Qingsang said a few more words and left.
She had been in this circle for the past two years and had become more and more at ease.
Su Peizhen watched quietly for a while before she finally withdrew her gaze. She then thought of finding a quiet place to sit down. From Afar, she saw a lady walk in.
That woman gave her the feeling that she looked somewhat familiar.
Su Peizhen was still thinking about where she had seen her before. That noblewoman greeted someone, but for some reason, she chose someone to greet.
Then, she walked to the side and chose a seat to sit down. The seat she sat on was just behind a screen. Behind Su Peizhen’s seat.
The noble woman’s face was indeed familiar, but no matter how Su Peizhen thought about it, she couldn’t remember.
She seemed to see an acquaintance in front of her and heard the voice of the noble woman on the phone.
“A jing, didn’t I tell you to come over? Where are you?”
“You’re bolder now. You’re looking down on me more and more. I told you to come and pick you up, but you kept saying that you would come on your own. Where are you now?”
“What? You Didn’t come at the last minute? What happened? I told you this morning.”
A Jing? Su Peizhen’s footsteps stopped there for a moment, then she shook her head. What a coincidence? It Must Be Ling Jing’s Jing?
Maybe it was something else.
Without thinking much, she turned around and left. After she left, the noble lady’s temper rose.
“Ling Jing, do you still have me as your mother in your eyes?”
..
“Eh? Sister-in-law?”
“Hello, sister-in-law.”
The sudden greeting made Su Peizhen stop in her tracks. She looked at the person in front of her. It took her some time to remember who the person in front of her was.
Wan Xiuzhe and Lin Nianzhi. They were Huo Yifan’s friends.
At that time, she and Huo Yifan had used each other and mingled together. Because a few of Huo Yifan’s friends were younger than Huo Yifan, they called her sister-in-law one after another. They were very happy.
It was a little ironic. Huo Yifan’s status in the Huo family was not low. However, because of the people from the major families in Rongcheng, they were all on good terms with Huo Jinyao.
Wan Xianyang of the Wan family, Xu Changlong of the Xu family, Tang Mohan of the Tang family, and Cheng Xianyun of the Cheng family.
After the heirs of the major families were decided, they naturally played around with Huo Jinyao, the heir appointed by the Huo family.
However, which family didn’t have some shameful things to say?
Wan Xiuzhe was the illegitimate child of the Wan family. And Lin Nianzhi was the illegitimate child of the Tang family.
Wan Xiuzhe was still okay. The Wan family had at least given him a surname and acknowledged his identity. Lin Nianzhi was still not recognized by the Tang family and still had his biological mother’s surname.
There were also a few other people who didn’t come from good backgrounds. They couldn’t rely on Huo Jinyao, so they had to rely on Huo Yifan instead.
Wan Xiuzhe and Lin Nianzhi had a good relationship with Huo Yifan back then. Su Peizhen did not intend to make things difficult for him, but her voice was very cold.
“Don’t call me sister-in-law, I’m not your sister-in-law.”
“Sister-in-law, that’s too hurtful. Our brother fan thinks about sister-in-law every day inside.”
These words sounded very similar to how Huo Yifan had been in prison for the past two years. It was more or less related to her. If she had not taken Qi Xiwei’s plan, Huo Yifan would not have been sentenced for so long.
However, “I have nothing to do with him now. You Don’t have to call me sister-in-law.”
After saying that, she was about to leave. However, Wan Xiuzhe stood in front of her.
“Sister-in-law, don’t be in a hurry to leave. Brother fan is almost out. It’s only a matter of a few days. Do you want to come with us to pick him up?”
Huo Yifan was coming out? Didn’t he get a longer sentence than her?
Su Peizhen didn’t ask at first, but she remembered that Huo Yifan’s sentence was longer than hers. He was coming out so soon?
It seemed that grandfather Huo was too soft-hearted.
“Sister-in-law?”
Wan Xiuzhe wanted to say something, but Su Peizhen didn’t want to hear it.
“I’ll say it again. I’m not your sister-in-law. Secondly, Huo Yifan and I haven’t been together for a long time. So what happens to him has nothing to do with me.”
She didn’t even use the word “Break up”because to her, there was no such thing as breaking up or not breaking up with Huo Yifan.
They had used each other and worked together. After they had used each other, they each received the punishment they deserved.
Wan Xiuzhe and Lin Nianzhi looked at each other. They didn’t expect Su Peizhen to be so heartless.
To Su Peizhen, this was enough.
Because meeting these two people had greatly affected her mood. Not long after, she sat in the corner and listened to the gossip. She saw the various postures of the people who would be attending. These were all things that she was already familiar with. She was no longer unfamiliar with them.
What used to make her happy in the past now made her inexplicably annoyed.
For the first time, she lost interest in hearing those women say that the jewelry in this house was good and that the handbag in that house was good.
She went to say goodbye to Su Qingsang and left. As for the rest of the Huo family, she was no longer interested in them.
Before she left, she saw from the corner of her eye that the rich woman from before was still on the phone. The whispers of the two women who passed by occasionally entered her ears.
“Did you see that person? She let go of her role as the best actress and went to be her lover. Now, she even appeared in front of the public. She has such a big face.”
“I saw her. Shh. Don’t mention it. Don’t let her hear it.”
“What does it matter if she hears it? If she dares to do it, why would she be afraid of people saying it?”
Su Peizhen followed their gaze and glanced at the noble woman. It was also at this moment that she remembered who that woman was.
A long time ago, an actress had won two Best Actress awards. Her surname seemed to be Liu.
She remembered it because she and Li Qianxue liked the movie that won the Best Actress award. Both of them had seen it.
Su Peizhen finally remembered the name of the best actress when she got into the car.
Her name was Liu Xiyun. No wonder she looked familiar. Her movements were indeed charming. However, she did not expect that she was actually being a lover?
But what did this have to do with her?
Weren’t these celebrities and people all like this back and forth? Why was there a need to be surprised?
..
When Su Peizhen returned home, she found that Ling Jing wasn’t at home.
She frowned slightly. If she remembered correctly, Ling Jing said that he wouldn’t be working the night shift tonight and had to come back earlier?
Su Peizhen took out her cell phone and called Ling Jing. The cell phone rang in the room.
She went in and found that Ling Jing didn’t have his phone with him.
Where did this guy go?
Su Peizhen thought for a moment and was about to change her clothes to look for Ling Jing when Ling Jing came back.
“…”as soon as he entered the door, he saw Su Peizhen in her dress.
Su Peizhen left in a hurry just now. Although it was a little cold outside, she was too lazy to change. After thinking for a while, she decided to go home first.
When Ling Jing saw Su Peizhen, his eyes suddenly couldn’t move away.
The black dress was really suitable for her. It made her look like she had smooth skin and outstanding temperament.
“Where did you go?”
“In the study.”
In the study? She had forgotten to take a look in the study just now.
“Why did you go to the study?”
“To find some new cake recipes.”
Ling Jing’s answer was somewhat absent-minded. Without waiting for Su Peizhen to ask again, he had already stepped forward and carried her up.
“You’re so beautiful today.”
With his arm around her waist, ling Jing’s hand happened to touch Su Peizhen’s back right after he finished praising her. There was a hollow spot there, exposing most of her waist.
His expression suddenly changed. “You’re not going to the party wearing this today, are you?”
“What else?”
Ling Jing’s teeth were a little sore. Looking at Su Peizhen, he couldn’t help but bite her collarbone lightly.
“Don’t wear such revealing clothes next time.”If he wanted to wear it, it would be best to wear it at home.
“Ling Jing.”was there something wrong with his eyes? Where did her clothes reveal themselves?
But before she could finish her sentence, Ling Jing had already put her body on the bed.
In the study, Ling Jing’s other phone screen kept on flashing. But at this time, Ling Jing had no time to deal with it.
