Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Killing to Strike the Heart
Dai Siqi put on an innocent face again, "Han Jingting, sorry about that, I didn’t realize your situation was so tragic."
"However, I think everyone feels the same as I do, wondering why with your qualities you would need to marry a good-for-nothing pretty boy?"
The crowd immediately echoed her sentiment, all curious to know the answer.
Han Jingting didn’t want to answer the question and simply said, "It was arranged by my family."
To this response, everyone obviously found it unacceptable.
Lin Fang even scoffed and said while rolling her eyes, "Come on, what era are we living in? There is still talk of family arrangements? By my guess, Han, the campus belle, you might be suffering from some hidden illness, which led you to lower yourself to marrying a loser..."
The crowd exchanged glances.
Lin Fang’s words were devastatingly cruelt—they might not have been explicit, but they were suggestive enough to set minds racing.
Women’s hidden illnesses, aren’t those diseases like STDs, AIDS, infertility and the like?
In everyone’s minds, these conditions were probably linked to a promiscuous private life!
Suddenly, the way people looked at Han Jingting was filled with strange expressions.
No way, was the seemingly pure Han Jingting actually a woman with a chaotic private life?
Han Jingting naturally picked up on Lin Fang’s insinuation, immediately feeling humiliated and furious, "Lin Fang, don’t slander me!"
Yang Xiaomeng could no longer stand by, "Exactly! Lin Fang, don’t talk nonsense without evidence. How can you besmirch Jingting’s innocence without any proof?"
But Lin Fang just sneered indifferently, "Did I say anything wrong? With Han Jingting’s qualities, it shouldn’t be difficult for her to find a wealthy suitor at all. So why would she have to marry someone worthless?"
"Everyone isn’t stupid, think about it and you might guess the reason."
"So much for the campus belle, I say she’s just a joke!"
"You..." Lin Fang was always quick-witted, and the usually honest Yang Xiaomeng was simply no match for her, speechless with frustration.
Han Jingting was also beyond angry, "Lin Fang, I came here out of respect for this classmate gathering. I didn’t expect you to hurl baseless accusations as if I were your enemy! If that’s the case, then go on and enjoy yourselves; I’m leaving!"
Having said that, Han Jingting turned to leave, but was stopped by Dai Siqi.
"Han Jingting, Lin Fang was just kidding. Why are you so seriously upset?"
Dai Siqi’s face broke into a smile as she played peacemaker.
Han Jingting’s expression was cold, "Joking with someone’s innocence? That ’joke’ is indeed very funny!"
Han Jingting had already seen that Lin Fang was clearly acting under Dai Siqi’s instruction, thus she didn’t mince her words in her response.
Dai Siqi was left speechless.
With her usual temper, she would have probably turned hostile by now.
However, today, her revenge on Han Jingting was not fully satisfied, and naturally, she wasn’t going to let Han Jingting leave so easily.
"Alright, I apologize on behalf of Lin Fang. We’re all classmates, don’t be angry." Dai Siqi said with a smile.
The other classmates also joined in, trying to convince her.
Han Jingting felt helpless; getting angrier now would just make her seem petty.
Just then, a Lincoln car approached from outside the courtyard.
Dai Siqi’s eyes lit up immediately, "My fiancé is back!"
In fact, the reason why Dai Siqi had organized this classmate gathering was exactly for showing off.
Not just to show off a mansion, a luxury car, but also her fiancé!
The Lincoln stopped, with several bodyguards in front, and one of them stepped forward to open the car door.
Soon, a man stepped out of the car.
He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes that shone brightly, and his watch, worth a million, was even more dazzling, the very image of a successful man.
The classmates were all excited as soon as they saw the man.
"Wow, Dai Siqi, your fiancé is so handsome!"
"Bodyguards clearing the way, the driver opening the door, so stylish!"
Everyone showered them with envious compliments.
Dai Siqi’s heart was bursting with joy, and she went up and coyly hooked her arm around the man’s.
"Let me introduce to everyone, my fiancé, the chairman of Jie’ao Corporation, Lu Jie!"
Indeed, the man before them was none other than Lu Jie, who had just met Chen Xuan yesterday at the children’s amusement park!
Xiao Zhe was the child that Lu Jie had with his ex-wife, making Lu Jie’s marriage to Dai Siqi a second marriage.
However, Dai Siqi was only showing off in front of her classmates today and naturally would not reveal the fact that it was a second marriage.
She even intentionally sent Xiao Zhe away so that he wouldn’t ruin her moment.
With Dai Siqi’s introduction, all the classmates gasped in amazement.
"Jie’ao Corporation? That’s one of Huai City’s top ten leading enterprises!"
"Dai Siqi’s fiancé is actually the chairman of Jie’ao Corporation? That’s incredible!"
Then, someone in the class thought of something else.
"Lu Jie? Could it be the son of Huai City’s Chief Secretary, Lu Kangsheng?"
Everyone turned to Lu Jie, waiting for his confirmation.
Lu Jie smiled faintly, "That’s right, he is my father!"
With those words, the classmates were completely astounded.
The chairman of Jie’ao Corporation, the Chief Secretary of Huai City—such titles to them signified a great person with vast connections!
They had never dreamed that one day they would have dealings with such incredible figures; it was like a dream come true!
"Oh my God, Dai Siqi, you are so lucky to be marrying a successful man like President Lu!"
"Dai Siqi has truly become a phoenix risen on high!"
Everyone was filled with envy, especially the female students, who were extremely jealous of Dai Siqi.
To marry a rich and powerful man, to drive luxury cars, and to live in mansions was almost every one of their dreams.
This group of envious people included Han Jingting as well.
Han Jingting was not so superficial; she didn’t have such high demands for money and power.
She just felt that she, who was superior to Dai Siqi in every aspect, deserved a better man.
At least, it shouldn’t be someone like Chen Xuan!
While Han Jingting was thinking this, Lin Fang once again directed her pointed remarks at her.
"Siqi is so beautiful, she deserves a successful man like President Lu, unlike some people who, despite having some looks, only married a loser. The reason behind it is truly baffling..."
Lin Fang looked towards Han Jingting meaningfully, obviously still insinuating that Han Jingting had some hidden condition.
The others hadn’t thought much of it before, but with Dai Siqi’s contrast, they felt even more that Han Jingting’s choice was somewhat abnormal.
Could it be, as Lin Fang said, that Han Jingting had some private issue, some hidden condition, and that’s why she couldn’t marry a good man, and instead settled for a worthless loser?
