Chapter 91 REUNION PART 15
"Xiao Lin, you’ve grown beautiful after going to Europe. Did you perhaps... have a boyfriend?" He was the only womanizer in their class. His name is Lin Tingfeng. Xue Lin always fought with him when they were in high school. Because of her, many girls broke up with him and it made him very angry. So, he always picked on her.
"No, I stayed single. Did you think everyone is like you? Some people are smart enough not to think with their lower parts, unlike you." Xue Lin drank two glasses of red wine but she was still sober.
Ling Tingfeng laughed. "Hahaha! Xiao Lin, you are still the same as ever. You don’t have to be like that. It’s not that we are mortal enemies or something. We are adults now. Let’s become good friends."
Xue Lin bluntly said, "I’m not interested. I feel like you have some ulterior motive behind that creepy offer."
Others burst into laughter.
"Oh, man! Xiao Lin, how can you reject him with that poker face of yours?"
"You are so funny, Xiao Lin!"
"Where did you learn that?"
"This is that first time Xiao Feng was rejected."
From the private room, Louis was looking at Ge Chen nervously. Seeing him calmer than usual, Louis was frightened. ’A guy is flirting with his wife, why is he so quiet? Is it what they say, calm before the storm? So scary!’
Lin Tingfeng frowned. "Hey guys, cut it out! I just wanted to be her friend, not anything else. However..." he smirked, "Xiao Lin turned into a beautiful woman. I wouldn’t mind dating her. If she wants, we can go all the way-"
"No chance. I’m already married." Xue Lin didn’t let him finish his sentence and dropped the bomb.
"..." Lin Tingfeng was dumbfounded.
"..." Others looked at Xue Lin as if she said something unimaginable.
A few seconds later, everyone screamed at the same time.
"Huh?!?!"
"Xiao Lin.... Is married?!"
"How did that happen?"
"She must be drunk!"
"Yeah, she must be dreaming."
"She doesn’t have a ring on her ring finger."
"I think she lost it."
"This could be. She has been single from the moment we know her."
No one believed her. Xue Lin was speechless. They couldn’t imagine that she was married. "Hey guys, do I look nuts to you? The only reason I didn’t wear my wedding ring because I’m not used to it. Let me show you some pictures of my wedding ceremony." She unlocked her phone and showed them pictures.
She didn’t like taking pictures of herself but she took the pictures of her special moments. Though it was an arranged marriage, it was still very special for her. She showed everyone her pictures of wearing a white gown and red qipao. Everyone gathered around and toppled over her to have a look.
"Wow!"
Xiao Lin, you look so womanly!"
"Did you have two wedding ceremonies? How rich are you guys?"
"Are these pure gold and jade? It has to be expensive!"
Xue Lin answered, "We only had one ceremony. The day we registered, my husband said that she wanted us to wear wedding clothes because it’s a special day for both of us. Thus, I wore a gown."
"Your husband is so romantic!"
"Is there no picture of him?"
Xue Lin replied, "No, I just kept my pictures." It was a lie. There are plenty of pictures of Ge Chen and her together but she kept them in a hidden folder. She just didn’t want to show her husband’s face to anybody.
A girl asked, "...Are you for real?"
"Why? Aren’t I pretty enough?" Xue Lin tilted her head.
Puja shook her head. "Geez, you are impossible."
A boy asked, "Is it a love marriage?"
Xue Lin replied, "No, we got to know each other when we were in Paris and we decided to get married after coming back."
"So, you were dating him." A girl grinned.
Xue Lin shook her head. "Not at all. I hardly knew about it. I got to know him after coming back."
Puja asked, "So, he worked there. What did he do?"
"He was a private bodyguard." Xue Lin had nothing to hide or lie because she didn’t think of any job as inferior to hers.
Lin Tingfeng smirked. "Hah, so he is a mere bodyguard. Maybe I can hire him. I want to see what is his worth." He is the son of the President of a large company. He is handsome and rich. Many girls gather around him and want to date him. He thinks he is some kind of superior human being.
Xue Lin frowned. She coldly said, "What do you mean by ’a mere bodyguard’? he leads an honest life and giving his best to his job. He is an honorable man, unlike someone who doesn’t work at all and chase after skirts."
