Chapter 135: Chapter 135: The True Mansion

Han Jingting was furious at Lin Fang’s repeated badgering, and just as she was about to lose her temper, Dai Siqi hurriedly scolded Lin Fang in advance.

"Lin Fang, what’s the matter with you? Didn’t we agree you wouldn’t bring up Han Jingting’s hidden illness again? How come you can’t remember that!"

Although Dai Siqi seemed to be advising, her words basically confirmed the rumor of Han Jingting’s hidden illness.

Lin Fang feigned a realization, "Look at my big mouth, it really is too much! I’m sorry, Han Jingting, I forgot just now, please don’t be angry!"

Han Jingting was left speechless by Lin Fang’s cutting remarks.

Then, Dai Siqi pointed at Han Jingting and said to Lu Jie, "Husband, her name is Han Jingting, and back in the day, she was the school beauty. But she had the misfortune of marrying a good-for-nothing pretty boy."

"Husband, you know so many people, when you get a chance you could introduce her to some promising young man."

Without even asking Han Jingting’s opinion, Dai Siqi started making arrangements for her on her own.

Everyone got excited upon hearing this, especially the girls.

To them, someone like Lu Jie, a successful man, must also know a number of societal elites.

If they could marry someone like Lu Jie, a societal elite, it would undoubtedly be a stroke of great luck!

Lu Jie put on airs, haughtily saying, "I could introduce her, but you just mentioned that this classmate has a hidden illness. What kind of illness is it? If it’s contagious, then I think we’d better forget about it."

Han Jingting felt a mix of shame and anger.

"If you haven’t got any factual basis, please stop spreading rumors! Also, my husband and I have a very good relationship, so I don’t need you to introduce me to any so-called promising young men!"

Lu Jie sneered, "Don’t blame me for speaking harshly, but my friends are all either rich or noble. Even if you wanted to climb up the social ladder, I’m afraid they wouldn’t even consider a divorced woman like you!"

"You..." Han Jingting was so angry that her chest heaved dramatically, "I came here today to attend a class reunion, not to take insults. Since you have all been mocking me and deliberately making me uncomfortable, I might as well not stay for this get-together!"

Just as Han Jingting was about to leave, she was stopped by Dai Siqi.

"Han Jingting, you’ve misunderstood. That wasn’t our intention at all. Look, the food is ready, let’s sit down and eat first. Afterwards, I’ll drink three cups as a self-punishment to apologize to you!"

Dai Siqi, with her deep schemes, naturally wouldn’t allow herself to earn the reputation of neglecting a classmate.

By now, Han Jingting had lost all appetite, but persuaded by her classmates, she decided to endure it for the time being.

Everyone took their seats, and the dishes were lavish, with mountain and sea delicacies, each reflecting Dai Siqi’s ostentation.

After three rounds of wine and a variety of flavors from the dishes...

Dai Siqi then started showing everyone around her mansion, with its high-end decoration and expensive furnishings, making everyone envy her even more.

"Dai Siqi, your villa is really luxurious!"

"I bet there aren’t many in Huai City that can compare."

"Exactly, Siqi’s villa is definitely the top-class luxury mansion in the whole Huai City!"

Dai Siqi basked in everyone’s flattery, but she didn’t dare to get too carried away.

"Actually, if we’re talking about the most high-end, it would have to be the Lakeside Villa in Dragon Lake!"

"Lakeside Villa?"

Dai Siqi nodded, "Yes! We are only in the midtown area of Dragon Lake Prime. There’s an uptown area further inside, and the Lakeside Villa is like the inner sanctum of the uptown area, right at the center of Dragon Lake Prime. That’s where the true crown jewel of the whole development is located, worth at least two hundred million!"

"Two hundred million?" Everyone couldn’t help but gasp.

Most of these classmates were from the working class, and a two hundred million house was something they couldn’t even dare to dream of.

"My God, a two hundred million villa, what would that be like?"

"If I could just take a look, I’d die satisfied!"

"Are you kidding? That’s the Lakeside Villa at Dragon Lake, the crown jewel. Whoever lives there must be loaded, I bet even the city’s elite. That’s not a place where just anyone can waltz in!"

"Exactly!"

While everyone expressed their regret, only Dai Siqi spoke with a laugh, "You’re right. That Lakeside Villa is no small potatoes. It not only has its own Moat, but even the entrance is private. Ordinary people definitely can’t get close. However..."

Dai Siqi paused, then continued, "With my husband’s face, wanting to go over for a look isn’t so difficult. Right, honey?"

Dai Siqi looked at Lu Jie beside her with a smile.

All eyes turned expectantly to Lu Jie as well.

Lu Jie cursed this damn woman inwardly for always finding ways to trouble him. The owner of the Lakeside Villa was always low-key, and even he didn’t know who lived there, so what sort of face could he possibly have?

However, now that Dai Siqi had gone this far, if Lu Jie admitted he couldn’t do it, wouldn’t he lose too much face?

Lu Jie feigned ease, "Siqi is right, just visiting the Lakeside Villa is a trivial matter!"

The crowd immediately became excited upon hearing this.

That was the Lakeside Villa at Dragon Lake!

Huai City’s crown jewel!

If they were lucky enough to witness it with their own eyes, it would be enough for them to brag about to their friends for a lifetime!

Afterward, Lu Jie made a phone call to the property management, using Lu Kangsheng’s influence, and with great difficulty, he persuaded the other side.

Twenty minutes later, they managed to break through the entrance barrier leading to the Lakeside Villa and arrived at its front.

Before them, the Lakeside Villa sat in the heart of the lake, like the most dazzling pearl in the midst of Dragon Lake, shining brilliantly!

"My God, this is what you call a mansion!"

"A palace fit for an emperor! This place is simply royal!"

Everyone marveled at the imposing grandeur of the Lakeside Villa before them, all filled with astonishment.

A wistful expression appeared on Han Jingting’s face. Such a standalone luxurious courtyard villa was definitely something she dreamed of owning.

It’s a pity that she could probably only dream about it in this lifetime.

Even the faces of Dai Siqi and Lu Jie were marked with envy at that moment.

Their villa was indeed nice, but next to the regal Lakeside Villa, it seemed so ordinary, so unworthy of mention!

The classmates all sighed enviously, saying the Lakeside Villa they were seeing was indeed much better than Dai Siqi’s.

Hearing these comments, Dai Siqi felt displeased and regretted bringing them here.

Just then, Lin Fang had to chime in, "Siqi’s mansion might not compare to the Lakeside Villa, but it’s still above average. At least it’s better than certain school beauties who probably will never have a chance with a luxury house! How pitiful!"

Han Jingting heard Lin Fang mocking her again and couldn’t stand it anymore.

"You guys enjoy yourselves, I have something to do, I’m heading back!"

Just as Han Jingting was about to leave,

Creak!

The grand entrance to the Lakeside Villa suddenly opened...
