Chapter 28: Lin Fangfei Hooks Up with Mr. Sheng

Mi Yaoyao had planned to pick up Lin Yuan first, then they would go to the wedding reception together.

Before leaving, she found that her shoes and clothes didn’t match well. She kept changing them, and time was running out. “Yuan, let’s meet at the wedding reception directly.”

They could only drive separately.

Lin Yuan was speechless. This Miss Mi was going to great lengths to see the former sports committee member, changing her outfit over and over again.

Well, women do dress up for the people they like.

As her best friend, she could understand.

Strangely, as soon as Lin Yuan’s car hit the road, the main road she usually took was blocked. There were two rows of black business cars on both sides of the road, as if they were clearing the way for some big shot.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to take a detour.

“Yaoyao, there’s a serious traffic jam on Yanshun Road. Take a detour.”

Mi Yaoyao: “I’m stuck too. Who’s making such a big fuss? All the cars are stuck and can’t move.”

Lin Yuan: “It’s none of our business. I’m just telling you, drive carefully. We’ll see each other later.”

Mi Yaoyao: “Yuan, do you think this is some big-shot tycoon from out of town? I’ve only seen this kind of fanfare on TV. I really want to get a closer look. Hey, hey, Yuan, I saw it. A silver Phantom just zoomed past me.”

Lin Yuan: “Did you see who was inside?”

“No, it was going too fast, and there was deliberate blocking around it. I couldn’t see who was inside.” Mi Yaoyao was still a little regretful. She really wanted to catch a glimpse of the rich person, what they looked like.

Lin Yuan chuckled, “Alright, even if they are rich, it’s none of our business. That kind of wealthy family is beyond our reach. But you, Miss Mi, might just be able to make it if you try hard enough.”

Mi Yaoyao deflated, “You’re kidding. Everyone knows my dad is just a nouveau riche. Who would marry a nouveau riche into a wealthy family? They’d think I’m a disgrace.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan had already driven to the outside of the banquet hall.

There was a wedding photo of the bride and groom at the entrance. If she didn’t know whose wedding she was attending, Lin Yuan wouldn’t have recognized the people in the photo.

It was full of a technological feel.

She raised an eyebrow. There were greeters at the entrance who led her to the table with her classmates.

The hall was decorated lavishly and luxuriously. It seemed that Li Meili had found a husband from a good family.

There were a few familiar faces at the table. Lin Yuan chatted with them for a while, then turned her head and saw Meng Tian and Lin Fangfei sitting at the next table, whispering to each other, not sure what they were talking about.

Seeing her look over, Lin Fangfei curled her lips, held her wine glass, exchanged glances with Meng Tian, and walked towards Lin Yuan.

“Oh, Yuan, I thought you weren’t coming.” Lin Fangfei’s voice was sharp, like a pair of scissors.

Meng Tian echoed, “Right? I thought that with such a luxurious wedding, Yuan would be sad to see it. After all, she…” She covered her mouth, pretending to have accidentally slipped up, which aroused the curiosity of the classmates at the table.

Some people began to chatter, “Meng Tian, don’t just say half of it. What happened to Yuan?”

“Yeah, what happened?”

Meng Tian glanced at Lin Yuan, “Yuan, she’s already married. Her husband is a construction worker.”

The classmates who had just been warmly greeting Lin Yuan immediately put on colored glasses to look at her. Lin Yuan knew that people are realistic nowadays, but she didn’t expect them to be so realistic.

If they didn’t know any better, they’d think these classmates were all presidents of countries or billionaires, looking down on construction workers!

Their minds were not right!

She calmly picked up the glass on the table and drank some water, “Meng Tian, Lin Fangfei, do you two have nothing better to say? Every time we meet, it’s the same few sentences. You really don’t have any other words to come out and make a fool of yourselves? What’s wrong with my husband being a construction worker? Does he eat your rice?”

Meng Tian: “If you’re really lonely and want to find a man, I can actually help you find one as a classmate. You don’t have to be so eager to find a construction worker. Construction workers have such a hard job, will he even be able to satisfy you at night?”

Lin Yuan curled her lips slightly, handed Meng Tian a glass of water from beside her, and Meng Tian, not knowing what to do, took it. “Meng Tian, if you have nothing in your head, drink more water. It’ll prevent your intestines from taking over.”

Meng Tian was so angry that she put the water down on the table and pointed at Lin Yuan, “You, you…” Lin Fangfei beside her pulled her back, gave her a wink, and Meng Tian took a deep breath, “Lin Yuan, after all, don’t you also find your construction worker husband embarrassing? You don’t know yet, Meili’s husband is an amazing person.”

“Really, Meng Tian, you know this?”

“Tell us, tell us. Just looking at this scene, you know the guy’s family has some money.”

Meng Tian arrogantly rolled her eyes at Lin Yuan, as if she herself had married into a wealthy family, “Have you heard of the Sheng family in Beijing? Meili’s husband is from the Sheng family in Beijing. They all have the surname Sheng. You know, some people are just so unlucky. They’re a wealthy family’s son…” She leaned closer to Lin Yuan, “Your husband, that Sheng, can only be a bricklayer. Tsk tsk tsk.”

“Meng Tian, you’re saying for real? Meili’s husband is from the Sheng family?”

“I heard the Sheng family is the top wealthy family in Beijing. The head of the family, Mr. Sheng, is very mysterious, like a dragon that only shows its head but not its tail.”

“Meili is amazing. The Sheng family is not something ordinary people can associate with. I heard that someone offended Mr. Sheng last time, and that family disappeared from Beijing overnight.”

Everyone was whispering at the table, and Lin Yuan also overheard a bit.

Meng Tian laughed sarcastically, “Yeah, Meili is lucky to be associated with the Sheng family. Our Fangfei is so outstanding, and she’s so beautiful. Maybe she can get close to Mr. Sheng through Meili.”

This flattery hit the spot. Lin Fangfei was very pleased. She blushed slightly and said, “Tian, you’re talking nonsense again. It’s a million miles away!”

The two of them were acting so fake. Lin Fangfei glanced at Lin Yuan, “Yuan, speaking of which, you and your… your husband left without saying goodbye at Dad’s birthday banquet last time. Dad was heartbroken for a while.”

Lin Yuan scoffed, “Lin Fangfei, you can act in the Lin family, but why are you getting addicted to acting? If you want me to cooperate with you, it’s not impossible. One minute, ten thousand yuan. I can act until you go bankrupt. Come on, pay first, then act.”

Lin Fangfei frowned in annoyance, “Yuan, why are you saying that to me? We’re sisters.”

The people at the table were already biased against Lin Yuan because of her young age and marrying a construction worker. Now, seeing Lin Fangfei looking wronged, they felt even more that Lin Yuan was arrogant and unreasonable.
