Sun Fei had been living the life of a rich wife in the Xue family for more than 20 years. She had thus participated in all kinds of banquets, hosted by both Xue Yanjing Xue Yanjing’s friends. She had appeared with Xue Yanjing and also made friends with many wives from wealthy families.
And tonight’s banquet was grander and livelier than any banquet she had ever seen before.
Before going out, Sun Fei deliberately dressed herself up. She put on the most expensive evening dress and jewelry that Xue Yanjing had bought for her before. Her dyed dark brown curly hair was let down casually, and her face was not too obvious with light makeup.
Sun Fei knew how to use her own advantages. She knew how to smile beautifully or how to move to attract the attention of people around her.
In addition, Xue Yanjing used to be the major shareholder of the Xue family. She was admired by everybody like stars no matter where she went. As Xue Yanjing’s favorite woman, she was thus often the focus of the scene.
But now…
Sun Fei held Xue Yanjing’s arm and stood next to Xue Yanjing like a transparent person with no sense of existence.
Everyone who came up to greet Xue Yanjing, regardless of gender or age, turned a blind eye to Sun Fei, as if they had not seen her as a living person at all.
The huge gap that had appeared in the past few months made Sun Fei feel even more uncomfortable.
Since entering the scene, Xue Yanjing’s eyes had not lingered on Sun Fei even once, and so he had not noticed these strange things about her… Of course, even if Xue Yanjing had found out, he may not have done anything.
Although Xue Yanjing had lost power in front of Xue Jue, he was still a very important major shareholder of the Xue family, so there was an endless stream of people coming to talk to him.
Xue Yanjing and those people talked and then they invited each other to go elsewhere, completely forgetting that there was Sun Fei beside him.
“Husband…” Sun Fei shouted weakly.
Xue Yanjing didn’t even look back and quickly disappeared from Sun Fei’s sight.
Sun Fei was bored, so she found a seat at the bar and sat down. After staying there for a short time, she suddenly saw several rich ladies decked in jewelry walking towards her, talking and laughing.
Those women looked very familiar. Sun Fei held her chin and recalled for a long time before she remembered that she had met them at Xue Yanjing’s friend’s birthday party a year ago and had arranged to go to the spa together several times.
Although she had long forgotten their names now, she believed that those women should still remember her appearance. Sun Fei thought that her appearance was still very distinctive.
But what she didn’t dare to admit was that her so-called uniqueness only existed when she was young. Now that she was older and had been struggling for a while, she looked very old.
“Sister Yao.” Sun Fei shouted while holding her voice.
At first, the woman called Sister Yao didn’t hear Sun Fei’s voice. It wasn’t until her friend patted her arm lightly and pointed back that she noticed Sun Fei sitting behind them.
“Sister Yao, what a coincidence.” Sun Fei stood up and walked gracefully to Sister Yao, curling up the corners of her mouth in a subtle way, smiling like a beautiful fox.
Sister Yao’s eyes flashed with surprise, and she thought that more than a year had passed, and she had experienced so many twists and turns not long ago, but she didn’t expect that Sun Fei would be as beautiful as before.
As soon as this thought passed through her mind, she saw Sun Fei tilting her face, the soft light slipped away from her face, and a bright light shone on the right side – the thick foundation and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes were now clearly visible, and there were also a few red pimples that could not be covered up…
Sister Yao: “…”
Beauty microdermabrasion killed people.
After a pause, Sister Yao tilted her head and asked doubtfully, “Who are you?”
Sun Fei’s smile suddenly froze. She looked around at the other women and found that they were all looking at her with strange eyes.
“I…” Sun Fei licked her lips awkwardly and said harshly, “I am Sun Fei. Last autumn we were…”
“Sorry.” Sister Yao interrupted Sun Fei’s stammering without politeness. There was no emotion in her cold voice, “You may have recognized the wrong person.”
Sun Fei’s voice stopped abruptly. She still wanted to say something but looking at the cold expressions of Sister Yao and others, she felt like there was a ball of cotton stuck in her throat, and she couldn’t spit out a word.
After staying there for a few seconds, Sun Fei quietly turned around and left.
She had just taken a few steps when she suddenly heard the voices of the women behind her becoming extremely excited. They seemed to have seen someone and called that person’s name enthusiastically, and the owner of that name was the one Sun Fei had been looking for since she entered the door. Weng Yuxiang.
“Yuxiang, Liu Jing, this way!” Sister Yao, the leader, shouted, which was completely different from the sarcastic remarks she had just made when facing Sun Fei.
Weng Yuxiang…
Sun Fei was suddenly startled.
She paused reflexively and turned around, only to see two slim women being surrounded by those women. Sun Fei glanced quickly and knew that Weng Yuxiang was not among them.
How could someone as old-fashioned as Weng Yuxiang wear this year’s Chanel autumn and winter new styles? She was never willing to spend money on clothes…
No!
The woman’s profile looked very much like Weng Yuxiang.
And the women next to her kept shouting “Yuxiang” to her.
Sun Fei vaguely guessed something and took two steps forward slowly but did not dare to get close. She took a closer look and found that the woman with all her black hair tied up, revealing her graceful and white swan neck, was Weng Yuxiang!
At the same time, Liu Jing, who was standing next to her, noticed Sun Fei’s presence, lightly touched Weng Yuxiang’s shoulder, and whispered a few words.
The next second, Weng Yuxiang turned around and looked over – the two people looked at each other, as if even the air stopped flowing at this second.
Sun Fei gradually opened her eyes, as if she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. In her impression, Weng Yuxiang should still be in the derogatory image of “old-fashioned” and “ugly”. How could it be…
The Weng Yuxiang in front of her looked gentle, generous, and beautiful. Her every frown and smile was overflowing with indescribable confidence. Even under the light as bright as a magic mirror, her skin condition could still stand the test, and it was as tender as if you could pinch out water.
This woman was not the Weng Yuxiang she knew at all…
Under Weng Yuxiang’s gaze, Sun Fei subconsciously touched her face. She didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt that she could feel the fine lines and crow’s feet with her hands.
“Sun Fei.” Weng Yuxiang called her name, and then slowly approached, her tone as calm as if she was greeting an old friend she hadn’t seen for many years, “Long time no see, how have you been lately?”
“Don’t come over here!” Sun Fei collapsed and took a step back in a hurry, but she didn’t notice the high stool beside her. Such that her foot wearing stiletto heels tripped and she almost fell.
Weng Yuxiang stopped where she was and asked: “Are you okay?”
Sun Fei knew that she had lost her composure after being overwhelmed by the dazzling Weng Yuxiang. Her pride when she came was like a balloon that had suddenly popped with a whoosh. Suddenly, it all disappeared without a trace.
And Sun Fei almost ran away.
From behind her came the chuckles of those women who were watching the fun, like thin needles falling down densely and pricking Sun Fei’s face and body. She wished she could turn into a ball of air and disappear on the spot.
For Sun Fei, the feeling of being humiliated in front of Weng Yuxiang was truly more uncomfortable than death.
