When Pei Huai received this reply, he was like an old grandpa in the subway looking at his phone.
Knowing that his girlfriend was going to drink and socialize with dozens of people in the club tonight, he frowned and was very worried!
However, he could tell from this reply that she was showing off.
Although he did not know where this feeling of smugness came from, Pei Huai started typing. Itâs better to send a message that his girlfriend would feel happy reading it.
[ âYouâre amazing.â ]
When Su Ji received the reply, she smiled.

Tuesday was the day of the Calligraphy Associationâs exchange meeting.
The largest hall was booked by a group of rich old ladies.
It was organized by Lu Ailian, and she was sitting in the middle at the moment.
Zhang Guihua, who used to sit in the middle, was sitting in the corner today. She looked dull.
The waiter served the tea, and the rich old ladies began to flatter her.
âMadam Lu, we all watched last weekâs episode!â
âYour grandson is so good at acting! We canât even tell that it was his first time acting!â
âWhat? Was that Xu Niâs first time acting?â At this moment, Zhang Guihua, who was sitting in the corner, exclaimed in a particularly exaggerated way, attracting the attention of the others.
Zhang Guihua would not let herself sit in the corner forever.
She stood up with the help of her walking stick and walked to Lu Ailianâs side. She asked in surprise, âwas that his first time acting? Thatâs impossible! I think his acting is even better than my granddaughterâs!â
Then, she sat down beside Lu Ailian.
The old lady who was pushed to the side by her had this expression:
Σ(ã£Â°Ð°;)ã£
Lu Ailian was annoyed at her initially, but her expression was so sincere that she became happy. After a long time, she finally gave in and laughed proudly.
âOf course itâs his first time. Even the director didnât believe it, let alone you!â
The others continued to flatter her.
âHe is indeed the future heir of the Xu family.â
âSome time ago, I took my granddaughter to Blue Whale for an interview, but she was rejected! Not everyone can enter Blue Whale, the standard is really high!â
âHeâs the only child of the Xu family and the future heir. Can your granddaughter compare to him? â
âIâm going to get my daughter-in-law to give me a grandson as soon as possible!â
Zhang Guihuaâs eyes widened. âYour son is almost 50. Your daughter-in-law is almost 40, right? â
The old lady who spoke was furious. âThatâs why Iâm anxious! If they donât hurry up and have a son, our family will have no descendants in the future! Theyâve been married for so many years, but sheâs only given birth to a daughter. So disappointing!â
Zhang Guihua was busy giving them ideas. âWhy donât you ask your son to marry another one? What hope does a woman whoâs almost 40 have? I donât think sheâll be able to give birth to a son. Didnât my sonâs first wife give birth to a daughter? She never treated me as her mother-in-law, but he married another one later on and she gave birth to a pair of twins!â
Envious voices instantly rang out around them.
Lu Ailian patted Zhang Guihua and said, âthis time, Madam Zhang is right. Back then, my son had a lot of love affairs because he was too handsome. Whoever gives me a grandson first will be allowed to enter the Xu family!
The others nodded. âIf only we had your persistence.â
âIâve said the same thing to my son, but he didnât listen at all!â
âDo you know why Madam Lu looks so young? Itâs because she doesnât have to worry, and everything has been going her way since she was young. If she wants a son, sheâll have a son. If she wants a grandson, sheâll have a grandson!â
One of the old ladies recalled the past. âAilian, I remember that your daughter-in-law came to our house when she was pregnant last time. At that time, I thought she was pregnant with a girl when I saw the shape of her belly. I didnât expect that she would give birth to such a handsome young man!â
Lu Ailian sneered, âof course you canât tell just by looking!â
After that, the exchange meeting went on as usual. Laughter and cheers continued to come from the largest hall.

In the evening, Wang Zhicheng drove Su Ji to the Four Seasons Club.
Su Ji had specifically asked him to park the car at an intersection away from the clubhouseâs main entrance.
She got out of the car and headed to the club. As soon as she reached the entrance, she ran into a few of her classmates.
And they saw Su Ji get out of Wang Zhichengâs car.
They immediately surrounded her in envy.
âSu Ji, is that your driver?â
Su Ji glanced at them indifferently. âNo, I called for a taxi.â
After they heard that, they felt better. The next second, Wang Zhicheng suddenly stuck his head out of the driverâs seat in the distance. âHave fun, young miss. Iâll be waiting for you here! Iâll bring you home later!â
âWow! He called you young miss!â
âSu Ji, youâre too low-key. You didnât even tell us that you have a driver. Iâm so envious!â
Tong Le happened to arrive at this time. He looked at the people who were making a big fuss around Su Ji and rolled his eyes in annoyance. He then walked into the club.
A few minutes later, Meng Na and Pan Lian also arrived.
âWeâre not the same people as we were three years ago. Donât wait at the door, or youâll be targeted by the paparazzi!â
Only then did everyone enter the club in a lively manner.
By the time they entered, everyone in the private room was already there.
...
It was the first time that a class gathering was held in the clubhouse, and everyone was very excited.
Class Monitor couldnât count the number of people, so he roughly glanced at everyone.
He thought everyone should have arrived. Then, he happily asked the waiter to order.
Since everyone was there, no one was looking at their phones.
No one noticed that someone said she couldnât make it.
[ Xuefang: âIâm so sorry, I canât make it today. Iâve been trying to talk to Ms. Jing, hoping to make time, but unfortunately, I still failed in the end. I really canât go today. You guys have fun!â ]
Now that Su Ji was in the limelight, Zhou Xuefang would not attend the gathering. She didnât want to give Su Ji the chance to show off in front of her.
However, she was afraid that her classmates would not let her off and would force her to go.
After all, she was popular.
She would find it troublesome if everyone kept pestering her.
Therefore, she hesitated for a few days before sending this message.
...
After sending the message, she muted the group.
But in fact, no one in the group paid any attention to her!
