Leng Ruobing nodded, but her expression was sowhat chilly. As the president of the Qianqiu Group, she had a knack for reading people, especially since Xiao Zheng was her husband, making her sensitive to others’ opinions about him. Su Zhiqing’s little sches couldn’t escape her notice.
However, they were on the street now, and it wasn’t appropriate for her to say much, especially since Xiao Zheng was giving her aningful looks. Although she felt a bit angry, she held it in.
Su Zhiqing nodded as if she understood sothing; then, as if recalling sothing, a smile graced her lips.
"Ruobing, tonight is our class reunion. Everyone is going to Lanfeng Hotel. I’ve heard that Ye Zhengyang is going too. Why don’t you co along?"
After speaking, she glanced back at Xiao Zheng, a hint of mockery in her smile: "Oh, of course, if possible, I hope your husband can co as well?"
Leng Ruobing frowned, looking at Su Zhiqing with a trace of disgust. Back in university, she didn’t get along well with those rich kids who looked down on the poor, but as she grew older,
her mindset matured sowhat. Moreover, as the president of the Qianqiu Group, she inevitably had to collaborate with such people on various matters.
Naturally, she wouldn’t reveal her true feelings, but Su Zhiqing’s reaction now really made her feel so repulsion.
On any other day,
maybe she would have just agreed to such a pointless class reunion, but right now, she was truly fed up with these people.
"I think today might not be very convenient."
Her voice carried a slight chill as she declined, but she maintained her outward politeness.
Su Zhiqing’s face froze; just as she was about to persuade her, Xiao Zheng interjected, cutting her off.
"Why not go? A class reunion is a good thing, so why not go?"
Xiao Zheng said with a cheerful smile.
"But..."
Leng Ruobing wanted to say sothing, but upon seeing Xiao Zheng’s subtle smile, she seed to understand sothing.
"Alright, let’s go then."
Leng Ruobing nodded.
...
The ti was nearly dusk, with heavy clouds spread across the sky, altering the skyline from how it usually looked. The grayish-blue sky concealed the sunset behind the clouds.
Su Zhiqing sat in the passenger seat, observing the couple in the back through the rearview mirror, her gaze often lingering on the man.
She knew Leng Ruobing’s personality very well.
She was a proud woman, difficult to conquer, yet at the sa ti, she aroused others’ desire to conquer her.
But to be honest, Su Zhiqing found it hard to imagine Leng Ruobing as a married woman; the n she had turned down could probably form a reinforced company.
So even swore, saying they’d never marry unless it was Leng Ruobing.
Of course, such banter could only fool those who cried over Korean dramas and swooned over young heartthrobs.
If the beauties at Lin’an Academy were compared to flowers, Leng Ruobing would undoubtedly be the most aloof peony.
So eventually, Leng Ruobing was placed on a pedestal by everyone, treated as a goddess to be admired from afar but never touched.
Taking advantage of this in college, Su Zhiqing, after graduating, used her abilities to quickly climb to a senior executive position in a foreign company within three years.
Yet, despite this, the na Leng Ruobing remained a thorn in her heart, like an insurmountable obstacle in her path, becoming a heart demon over ti.
So this unexpected encounter left Su Zhiqing sowhat unprepared.
Xiao Zheng’s appearance put her at ease. At their level, appearances were no longer the first thing people noticed; it was the person’s taste that mattered.
At least in Su Zhiqing’s eyes, Xiao Zheng was not at all qualified.
A cold smile gradually crept onto her lips as she looked at the harmonious couple in the rearview mirror, a hint of sarcasm flashing in her eyes.
She once thought Leng Ruobing was a proud peony, but now it seed that no matter how beautiful a woman was, once she descended into the mundane, she couldn’t help but turn into an ordinary person.
She shook her head, finding her past thoughts and worries sowhat laughable.
Xiao Zheng and Leng Ruobing sat in the back seat, exchanging glances, laughter barely contained in their eyes.
Both had practiced the Muscle Strengthening Scripture, and as a loving couple, they no longer needed words to communicate; a tacit understanding was the best way to describe it.
At this mont, the two were perfectly communicating with just their eyes in the back seat.
"This car is nice."
"Do you like it?"
"Not really, it’s too small."
"Then why did you say it’s nice?"
"Hehehe, just to find a topic."
"So unserious~"
Leng Ruobing gave him a playful glare, then smiled and winked at him.
Xiao Zheng responded with a broad smile, making Leng Ruobing feel affectionate, and she quickly pinched his arm.
"Honestly, I’m not interested in these things. I haven’t seen those classmates from Lin’an Academy for a long ti."
Leng Ruobing whispered in his ear.
"I know, but they’re your classmates; it’s good to see them." Xiao Zheng nodded.
He understood her character.
Throughout the trip, the two of them silently communicated with each other, although the silence in the car seed heavy, as none of the three were ordinary people. The best way to handle awkwardness was indeed silence.
However, Xiao Zheng and Leng Ruobing didn’t plan to remain silent.
The luxury car sped along the highway for quite a while before finally stopping at a villa castle in the outskirts of Zhonghai City.
Xiao Zheng helped Leng Ruobing out of the car, then looked up at the looming villa built on the mountain, a peculiar look in his eyes.
Although not very familiar with Lanfeng Hotel, as the Evil God, Xiao Zheng had heard sowhat about it. It seed to be a high-end hotel opened by the Lan Family outside Zhonghai City.
After the Great Sound Buddha Sect fell, this Lan Family had also invested in Sky Net, and this villa castle area was their new business expansion in Zhonghai City. In a sense, he was visiting incognito as a board mber.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Beside him, Leng Ruobing also seed to sense this and shot him an amused glance.
"Shh." Xiao Zheng winked.
Leng Ruobing returned a warm smile and winked back at him.
"Ruobing, Brother Xiao, this is a newly opened villa hotel by Lanfeng Hotel, considered one of the top high-end hotels in Zhonghai City. I’ve heard that Young Master Ye has booked the entire hotel today. Oh, Ruobing, do you still rember Young Master Ye?"
Su Zhiqing walked over with a warm smile, greeting Xiao Zheng and Leng Ruobing, though her gaze was firmly locked on Leng Ruobing, politely ignoring Xiao Zheng.
