Chapter 51
Although her cousin was Chen Nan, and Chen Nan did have a good relationship with the person from the Chi family, it didn't mean that she, Li Feiyi, had a good relationship with that person too. She hadn't even spoken to that person before.
Previously, when she went to find her cousin, she had encountered that person once. Chen Nan did say, "This is my cousin, Li Feiyi." But that person had only glanced at her and nodded slightly, without saying a word to her. The attitude was rather indifferent, and Li Feiyi even felt that if they met again, that person might not even remember her.
She wasn't even qualified to attend their gatherings. So how could Chen Xinyuan say that person spoke to her and didn't mind?
How could she believe that?
Li Feiyi looked at Chen Xinyuan with doubt. Chen Xinyuan's heart skipped a beat, "Feiyi, I... I'm telling the truth, he even smiled at me."
Li Feiyi became even more doubtful. "Smiled? Are you sure? Do you think I'm really that stupid?" Li Feiyi recalled what Zhang Xiyue had said to her earlier, calling her stupid!
Li Feiyi glared at Chen Xinyuan, then stomped her feet and left.
Chen Xinyuan: ???What did she say wrong?
Nearby, a shop assistant, seeing there was only one person left, immediately approached her, "Miss, do you still need this bag?"
Chen Xinyuan looked at the bag. It was indeed very pretty. Thinking about what had just happened, she finally gritted her teeth, "Yes! Bag it for me."
The assistant smiled, "Sure, this way please. Will you be paying by card or..."
Chen Xinyuan: "Card."
The assistant: "Okay, the total is two million."
Chen Xinyuan froze, her eyes widening. "How much?"
The assistant: "Two million."
Chen Xinyuan's heart ached as she handed her bank card to the assistant. A bag that costs two million! All her savings!!!
Chen Xinyuan picked up the bag and left, her steps somewhat unsteady.
On the other side, after Li Feiyi left, she immediately called her cousin Chen Nan. Chen Nan was a bit busy and didn't answer for a long time. "Feiyi? What's up?"
Li Feiyi: "Brother, I... last time you attended the Chi family's banquet, did anything happen?"
Chen Nan didn't know what she wanted to ask. "What do you mean?"
Li Feiyi: "That... that person from the Chi family, did someone offend him? Like some girl?"
Chen Nan: "Yes, there was an idiot who spilled a drink on the boss. Why? Did you run into the idiot?"
Li Feiyi: "Id...idiot?"
Chen Nan: "If not an idiot, what else? What does she look like to even dream about the boss? Doesn't she look in the mirror? Remember to stay away from that person, don't play with the idiot."
Li Feiyi: "Got it... brother, I'm good now."
"Yeah."
After hanging up, Li Feiyi was so angry that her face turned red. She immediately blocked and deleted the person from her contacts!
On the other side, Chen Xinyuan had just bought the bag and was about to tell Li Feiyi, but when the message was sent, it showed: You are no longer friends with this person...
Chen Xinyuan: ???
In Song Luokui's room, she took out the bags her brother Song Luosheng had sent back and placed them aside, then took out other items he had also sent back.
"One is pink, and one is blue. Which one do you like?"
Zhang Xiyue touched this one and that one. "Wuu wuu, I wish I had a brother like that too."
Song Luokui: "You can call me brother."
Zhang Xiyue hugged her: "You really are my good big brother. I want the blue one; the pink one suits you."
Song Luokui: "Okay, take a look and see if there's anything else you want."
Zhang Xiyue: "No need, this bag is enough." Zhang Xiyue carried the bag and looked in the mirror, then examined Song Luokui's belongings. "Luokui, don't you have too many things? Why don't you get a walk-in closet?"
Song Luokui: "I have a small walk-in closet, but it's also full of stuff." There was no helping it; the houses in this courtyard were just ordinary residential buildings. The Song family's building had three floors. The first floor was Aunt Gui and Uncle Kang's room, the second floor was where she and her parents lived, and the third floor was where Song Luosheng lived.
Zhang Xiyue: "You can live outside, right? Don't you have a courtyard house on Shangyuan Road?"
She was already living outside but would also come back home to stay. The children in the courtyard generally preferred freedom and independence once they became adults, wanting to move out from their families. Only Song Luokui stayed at home every day.
Song Luokui: "But I want to stay with my family." Whenever her parents came back, they would say that seeing her waiting at home for them made all their fatigue disappear.
She did have a courtyard house, a gift from her grandparents. Her brother also had one.
Zhang Xiyue: "You can live outside usually and come back every week. You can also design your place outside and move your belongings there."
Song Luokui: "I can move my belongings there, but I still want to live at home before graduating."
Zhang Xiyue: "Whatever makes you happy. Anyway, let's go for afternoon tea."
Song Luokui: "Let's go."
...
Another week later, Lou Sasa posted a message in their group: "Afternoon tea gathering at my place this weekend."
Lou Sasa: "I'll share some gossip with you."
Zhang Xiyue: "I'll definitely go."
Weng Jiao: "Me too, it's not about that person again, is it?"
Zhou Yue: "Who who who? Who are you talking about? I'll go too; I missed it last time, but I'll go this time for sure."
Weng Jiao: "I've customized new Lolita dresses @buyingcaliflowereatsthecaliflouerseeds, Luokui, remember we'll wear matching sister outfits."
Zhang Xiyue: "Damn it, I want to wear them too."
Lou Sasa: "Everyone wear them!"
Tu Shanyue: "I'll go too! I want to hear the gossip!"
Lou Sasa: "I'll give you the invitations tomorrow, don't stand me up."
Song Luokui: "Okay, I'll wear the outfit and go."
On the weekend, Song Luokui woke up early. Aunt Gui came upstairs to call her, "Young Miss, the makeup artist is here."
Song Luokui: "I'll be down in a bit. Take her to have breakfast first."
"Okay."
After washing up, Song Luokui went downstairs and had breakfast first. Then the makeup artist started doing her makeup, with her outfit placed aside.
After more than two hours of preparation, with the help of the makeup artist and Aunt Gui, Song Luokui was dressed in a pink and white princess gown, paired with Mary Jane shoes, matching hair accessories, gloves, and a small flower basket.
Her normally waist-length straight hair was styled in big, wavy curls, and her face was done with intricate makeup, making her look like an exquisite Barbie doll.
The makeup artist and Aunt Gui squealed from the side, "Aahh, so pretty!"
"Young Miss looks so adorable like this, I'll take a photo to show your parents."
The makeup artist also took out her phone. "Miss Song, can I take a picture with you? I won't share it."
Song Luokui: "Sure."
Then the makeup artist and Aunt Gui took pictures of her, praising her all the while.
"Young Miss, you should wear outfits like this more often. I'll ask the young master to buy them for you."
"If Miss Song became a celebrity, I'd definitely be one of your loyal fans!"
At that moment, Song Luosheng had just entered the door when he heard the screams. "Aahh, Miss Song, that expression was perfect just now."
"Wuu wuu, my heart has been captured by Miss Song."
Song Luosheng: ???
