The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 979: Class Reunion: His Highness Showed Up

“Sisi, stop acting humble. As long as you work harder, you can eat here whenever you want.”

Hearing Li Meng’s words, some classmates who came late did not understand and asked doubtfully, “What do you mean? Why can’t we understand you?”

“Ah, she’s seeing the boss of the Jue Wei Group recently. This Emperor Hotel is just one of the properties of the Jue Wei Group.” Li Meng acted mysteriously.

“Do you understand now?”

Du Sisi’s face was flushed red as she pulled Li Meng’s shirt. “It’s still up in the air, don’t spout nonsense.”

“Understood, understood, we all understood now.” The classmates looked at Du Sisi in unison.

Du Sisi enjoyed such attention and she did not deny the fact. She knew how to lead people to believe that she was dating President Jue. Hence, she only revealed a look of embarrassment from the start to the end.

At first, everything seemed fine. However, when Du Sisi looked up, she noticed, regardless of what had happened, Xiao Zifeng’s gaze did not move an inch away from Helian Wei Wei.

Looking at him fixing his gaze at her with deep affection was something that she was immensely envious about since high school. Even now, that sense of jealousy still affected her.

She laid her eyes on the man who never revealed any sorts of emotions toward her. Her eyes brightened up as she clenched her fists. She then tilted her head to face Helian Wei Wei, saying, “I wonder what your new boyfriend looks like. I always heard that many girls compromise in relationships due to the pressure from their surroundings. Wei Wei, you better don’t be like them. All of us have attractive facial features, so I believe you can surely find someone who suits you well.”

“Wei Wei, don’t listen to Sisi. My husband isn’t so good-looking either. The most important thing for men is the way they dress up themselves. When your boyfriend arrives later, we can tell how he styles himself. If it’s really out of fashion, we have Zifeng and the rest here to provide him with some good advice.” Li Meng sounded sincere with her words, but in fact, disdain could be faintly seen through her eyes.

Helian Wei Wei frowned. Is she hinting that His Highness looks hideous and has poor fashion sense?

“Wei Wei, why are you keeping silent? Don’t tell me that I have guessed it right!” Du Sisi smiled as she continued, “no worries. It’s normal for a man to be a little rough. After all, no one can assure that we will be able to find our absolute ideal partner. However, it brings concern when some girls are willing to sacrifice themselves just for the sake of money by serving fat yet ugly old men. However, judging from your demeanor, you don’t look like you will do such a thing. I’m pretty sure a woman who rides a motorbike to work will definitely not be involved in this.”

Upon hearing that, Little Qingchen looked daggers at Du Sisi with his huge pair of eyes. He was on the verge of an outburst.

As Helian Wei Wei witnessed this, she reached out her hand to grab Little Qingchen’s ear. She then curved up her lips into a smile and took a glance at her classmates around her. “Speaking of this, to be honest, I fell for his appearance, or else, we would not have gotten into a relationship.”

The surging fury emerging from Little Qingchen vanished immediately. His tiny head nodded along with the remark. I couldn’t agree more on that point. Since I was born, pretty Wei Wei has always been praising our father for his handsome look. It has almost become my ‘tightening-crown spell’ since I was young. However, why is my brother not replying to my message? I’m still waiting to discuss it with him.

Helian Wei Wei’s reply caused others to be at a loss for words. Several classmates laughed it off to make the ambiance less awkward. They teased in a friendly manner, “Wei Wei, are you serious? You don’t look like someone who is captivated by beauty though.”

“I have always judged others by their appearance.” Helian Wei Wei’s voice sounded natural. She then let out a generous smile as she uttered, “He is the most stunning man I have ever seen. I took the initiative to pursue him previously because I was attracted to his look.”

Helian Wei Wei was being frank. She had always thought of herself as the bossy president. Hence, chasing someone was certainly her thing to do but obviously others did not think the same way.

“Wei Wei, you’re exaggerating! Zifeng is here, who can be more handsome than him. Mind your words because it’s hard to take them back later,” Li Meng asserted and laughed along with others. “As the saying goes, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Wei Wei really tries hard for her boyfriend. What made the initial indifferent and talented girl chase after someone? This seems too cheap for you.”

“She even mentioned that her family has good social connections, but eventually, she became a car mechanic.” One of the three female classmates who came to a quick realization of the real meaning behind Li Meng’s words shot a disdainful glance at Helian Wei Wei.

Du Sisi tried to smooth things over. “Perhaps something unpleasant happened to Wei Wei’s family, causing her to be in such a state. I believe she didn’t want to tell lies. Stop talking about the time when we were still in school. That time we were all still young, so it’s understandable to be vain. Isn’t it, Wei Wei?”

“Vain?” Helian Wei Wei repeated this word playfully. She gradually gave out a smile, with a unique meaning surrounding her thin lips.

Du Sisi portrayed a look as though she knew Wei Wei very well. The corners of her mouth were accompanied by a hint of mockery. She raised her wrist to look at her watch. “It’s almost five o’clock. We haven’t eaten anything after talking for so long. I’ll give them a call to ask them to open the red wine first. Red wine tastes better after decanting. You can have a look at what you feel like eating. With the presence of my uncle, I am sure all of you will be given the best treatment. Wei Wei, help yourself later. Not everyone gets the chance to have a taste of the food here.”

Those words were meant to indicate that Helian Wei Wei could not afford to have a meal in the Emperor Hotel.

A few ladies who followed behind Du Sisi laughed along with Li Meng. The meaning behind those words was as clear as day.

The price of the food was absolutely higher in such a grand hotel, especially for those precious ingredients. For example, the sashimi that was imported from Japan and the most authentic Beijing roasted duck that was hot from the oven. Each dish would easily cost up to thousands of yuan.

In order to be served with these dishes, it was required for the customer to make an appointment in advance.

After all, Du Sisi was rather confident when she uttered those words. In her point of view, she thought that this person would never have a taste of such good quality food, not to mention having an outstanding boyfriend.

Thinking about this, Du Sisi added with a smile, “Don’t worry, Wei Wei, even if your boyfriend is not that good-looking, we won’t say anything. Everyone will not...”

Before Du Sisi even finished talking, a deep and elegant voice sounded behind the crowd.

“Am I late?”
