Inside the private room, the corner of Ge Chenâs lips lifted. He was very pleased with his wifeâs support.
On the fifteenth floor, the atmosphere was getting heavy. To make the environment lighter, Puja said, "Hey Xiao Lin, howâs your husband? Is he good to you?"
Xue Lin answered, "He is. He cooks for me and he supports my decision. He cares for me too. I also learned another thing. He believes in me."
Another girl said, "He should believe in you. How can he imagine you of all people will cheat on him?"
Xue Lin shook her head. "Oh, not that way. He believes in me as his partner who can support you as he can support me. I think Iâm lucky to have someone like him in my life."
"He sounds like a good guy!"
"How does he look? Is he handsome?"
"Iâm not telling you." Xue Lin firmly shook her head.
"Aww! Xiao Lin is being jealous!"
"Donât be like that, Xiao Lin!
However, Xue Lin didnât budge. While the girls kept whining, a guy said, "You girls are shameless. Look at Xiao Lin. She was a tomboy and didnât have any sex appeal. You girls looked down on her. And see, she not only completed her study but also have a good career. She turned into a beautiful woman too. No wonder her husband cherishes her. You girls have to work hard to get a guy like her husband. If you donât mind, I can become the perfect candidate..."
The girl beside him said, "Xiao Fu, you were planning this all along, werenât you? No one here wants to marry you."
Another guy said, "Iâm still single and I can cook."
"Dude, get a job first!" Someone said.
Others burst into laughter.
When it was half-past ten, only then they called it quits. Most of them were drunk and called for a taxi. Someone, they had their driver or cousin, or family members take them home. Xue Lin went to the lobby after calling Ge Chen. Lin Tingfeng stood beside her and said, "Xiao Lin, you looked pale when we mentioned Xiao Yao and Xiao Xia. Donât tell me something happened between the three of you. They are your besties and yet you donât know anything about them. Do you think I will believe your crap?"
Xue Lin froze upon hearing two names. She casually looked at Lin Tingfeng and asked him back, "Do I look like I care what you believe or not believe?"
Lin Tingfeng sneered. "Why do you always act like a tough cookie? You donât have anything that can drive anyone crazy for you."
Xue Lin shrugged. "I donât want to drive anyone crazy for me. Iâm not an attention seeker like you."
Lin Tingfeng was already drunk. Her words made him truly angry. He grabbed her shoulders and pulled her toward him. "Why are you so annoying? Why canât you become my friend?"
Xue Lin smirked. "The only reason you want me to be your friend is because you want to show off that you are better than me and my husband. You also want me to fall for you and break me apart from my husband. Did you think I wouldnât realize your intention? Now, let go! You are hurting me."
Lin Tingfeng felt disgusted by how she praised her husband. He was more superior to her bodyguard husband. "What makes you think your husband is better?"
"He is better because he lives an honest life and he works hard for himself and for me. And look at you. Your father is rich and you were pampered since you were little and that made you think you are the king of the world. You never study hard and you never try to improve yourself. You waste your precious time doing nothing. You hang around with your useless friends who will never help you when you need help and you waste your fatherâs hard-earned money as if they are nothing. Useless and overconfident people like you just piss me off. Go out and try to look for a job, try to be a real man, you will see life isnât a bed of roses, and how hard it is to earn money. But will you do it? Do you have enough sense of pride to do it? Or do you think you will sit on your fatherâs chair one day and do company work? Heh, donât tell me you know how to handle office work? If you donât, I suggest you to start learning before itâs too late."
Xue Lin told him her piece and then stepped on his left foot. She was wearing a moderate heel. It hurt like hell. Lin Tingfeng groaned and bent down. As he let go of her shoulders, Xue Lin quickly moved away from him and bumped into Louis.
