Regretful Beijing Marriage

Chapter 164 The Feast at Hongmen

Jiang Yining understood.

This class reunion was hosted by Meng Yao.

It was a trap from the start.

She's a vengeful person; if she got the short end of the stick last time, she'll definitely get her revenge elsewhere.

Even if she hadn't exposed it in public and made Meng Yao lose face.

The other party was determined to crush her into the mud again.

Unfortunately, she won't get her wish this time.

She'll show her what it means to lift a rock only to drop it on your own foot!

However, what surprised Jiang Yining the most was Song Xi.

She was her college roommate.

They both came from rural backgrounds.

The two were in similar situations back then.

They were all marginalized and ostracized in class.

He was also the only person Jiang Yining could truly confide in.

Later, when she got into trouble, rumors spread like wildfire.

The other two roommates pressured Song Xi to take sides.

Make her cut off all contact with her.

Song Xi was timid and fearful.

Ultimately, they chose to distance themselves.

The two lost contact after that.

Jiang Yining knew perfectly well that among all the people back then...

Song Xi was the only one who didn't take the initiative to kick her while she was down or join others in maliciously framing her.

However, those events happened too suddenly back then.

She still harbored some resentment about which side she was on.

Jiang Yining lightly moved her fingertips and typed a reply.

Okay, I understand, thank you.

The other side kept deleting and adding, and it kept showing "typing in progress".

After a long pause, a cautious greeting finally popped up.

[Yi Ning, how have you been lately? I'm currently working at a private clinic, and they're hiring right now.]

If you don't currently have a suitable job, I can help you with recommendations.

There was no sense of superiority in his words.

Jiang Yining could sense the other party's sincerity.

Jiang Yining's eyes warmed slightly as she replied calmly.

No need, I have a stable job now, thank you for your kindness.

It's been so many years. If there's anything, we can talk about it at the class reunion.

Back then, Song Xi was the only person who witnessed Meng Yao stealing her work in the entire process.

If she could, she hoped she could identify it.

However, some things still need to be said face to face.

It's been so many years since we last met.

Perhaps the other person has already changed.

After a moment of silence, Song Xi sent another message with instructions.

They created a private group chat and even made bets on what you'll wear tomorrow night, just waiting to see you fail.

If you don't have a suitable dress, I have a brand new, unworn one that fits perfectly; you can borrow it to make an appearance.

These words brought a slight smile to Jiang Yining's lips.

No need, thank you for your kindness, see you then.

End the chat.

As Jiang Yining was pondering what to wear, Su Zhiyan knocked on the door and entered with a smile.

"Sister Ning, the experiment has made a breakthrough. You're amazing!"

"This progress has exceeded expectations."

Jiang Yining smiled and said, "I only gave you a direction; the real strength lies with you."

"Stop with the flattery, what brings you here?"

Su Zhiyan stuck out her tongue.

"I can't escape your eyes, Sister Ning. Are you free tomorrow night? My grandma would like to invite you to dinner at the Shenghao Hotel."

"Let me introduce you to a few people."

Shenghao?

Jiang Yining raised an eyebrow. Isn't this the place for a class reunion?

The person recommended by Mr. He must be a leading figure in the industry.

It's a bit of a pity this time.

"I'm sorry, Zhiyan, I have something to do tomorrow. I'll definitely visit you next time."

"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer. You go ahead with your work."

After Su Zhiyan left, Jiang Yining temporarily put aside her experimental work.

Just as I was about to dial Ji Shu's number, her phone rang.

As soon as the call connected, Ji Shu's cheerful voice came through.

"Ningning, have you been very busy lately? Do you want me to come over and lend you a hand?"

"I'm so sorry to bother you with your busy schedule. I was going to offer to help you out, but I really can't help you with psychology."

Jiang Yining smiled gently and responded with a joke.

"I am indeed busy, so I won't help you. But we're on the same wavelength, and I just wanted to ask you to go shopping with me."

Ji Shu was slightly surprised. "Have you changed your ways, you workaholic? You've been so busy lately, how did you find time to go shopping?"

"Wait, you're not doing this for Fu Huaiyan's birthday party, are you?"

After saying that, Ji Shu looked at him with a disappointed expression.

"Ningning, don't be silly. Even if you really want to be successful, the dress should be prepared by Fu Huaiyan. Don't go back on your word..."

Jiang Yining quickly interrupted.

"It has nothing to do with that. There's a college reunion tomorrow night."

Ji Shu instantly understood, and her tone suddenly became sharp.

"Yes, I have to go. See you at the mall, I'll be right there!"

She knew better than anyone how outrageous Ning's college classmates had been.

Those who kick someone when they're down and spread rumors behind their backs.

I have to dress up nicely!

We'll give them a good slap in the face.

"Okay, see you at the mall."

-

The top level of the Fu Group.

Fu Huaiyan sat upright at his desk, flipping through the documents with his fingertips.

At this moment, Qin Yi pushed open the door to report.

"Mr. Fu, Miss Shen is here and would like to see you."

"not see."

Fu Huaiyan didn't even look up.

"Send her back. Don't report these recent events to me."

Qin Yi looked embarrassed, but forced himself to add the details.

"Ms. Shen said she wasn't feeling well and had been waiting in the lounge."

Upon hearing this, Fu Huaiyan paused in his writing.

He looked up, a layer of displeasure and frost covering his eyes.

"My words no longer carry any weight?"

Qin Yi's heart tightened, and he quickly lowered his head.

"No, I'll take care of it right away."

Just as he was about to leave, a small figure rushed in.

The secretary followed closely behind, looking utterly embarrassed.

"Mr. Fu, the young master insisted on coming in, and I couldn't stop him..."

Fu Jiayu skillfully pounced on Fu Huaiyan's legs, tilting his little face up with a righteous air.

"I'm here to see my dad, why can't I come in?"

Fu Huaiyan frowned as he looked at his son who had suddenly barged in, his coldness slightly subsiding.

She reached out and pulled him close.

"Get out, everyone."

The moment the door closed, Qin Yi whispered instructions to his secretary.

"From now on, Ms. Shen will be required to make an appointment according to the proper procedures."

The secretary was shocked but dared not ask any more questions, and quickly nodded in agreement.

Is Miss Shen no longer favored?

Not only was the secretary shocked, but Qin Yi also pondered to himself.

Mr. Fu's attitude towards Ms. Shen has become increasingly cold lately.

The change in attitude is obvious.

Looking at the young master's actions just now, it's most likely because of his family.

With President Fu's birthday approaching, Mrs. Fu is once again quite hostile towards Miss Shen.

It seems that President Fu has completely compromised and is preparing to return to his family.

Miss Shen...

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Qin Yi suppressed it.

These are things he shouldn't be considering.

Only the father and son remained in the office.

Fu Jiayu blinked his clear eyes and spoke softly.

"Dad, did you see my message? Why aren't you replying?"

"What time do you get off work? Do you stay up this late every day?"

Fu Huaiyan placed Fu Jiayu on the sofa and gave him a stern warning.

"Fu Jiayu, I'll say it again, you're not allowed to send those kinds of messages again."

"If you keep acting up, I'll have Qin Yi take you home right now."

This lecture angered Fu Jiayu.

The little guy stood up with his hands on his hips, glaring angrily at Fu Huaiyan, both anxious and angry.

"Dad! How come you have no sense of crisis at all!"

"If you don't take the initiative to win Mom back, she'll really be taken away by someone else!"
