Chapter 240: Chapter 240: Murong Fei’s Old Classmate
Upon hearing Murong Fei’s words, a look of embarrassment flashed across the waitress’s face.
"Sorry, I, I thought you two... looked well-matched." The waitress said apologetically to Murong Fei with an embarrassed face.
Qin Tian came over to ease the awkwardness, and laughed, "She isn’t my wife yet, she’s my fiancée."
As soon as he said this, the waitress was taken aback, thinking to herself, if she’s already his fiancée, isn’t marriage just a matter of time? Yet this beauty still...
Thinking to herself, the waitress looked at Murong Fei, only to see Murong Fei’s pretty face flush red as she stared furiously at Qin Tian, her gaze as if she were about to slaughter him.
Qin Tian spread his hands and chuckled, "Why are you looking at me like that, aren’t you my fiancée?"
"Hiss~ Ouch!"
Murong Fei reached out and pinched Qin Tian hard on his waist, causing him to grimace in pain, "You’re being too rough; there are people here. Save it for when we get home, okay?"
"Hehe..."
The waitress beside them couldn’t help but laugh, thinking to herself, the two of them are both handsome and beautiful, and so affectionate, they must be a couple.
Murong Fei didn’t say a word during the entire exchange, glanced at Qin Tian, then turned her attention to the waitress, "I’ll take this evening gown, please pack it."
"Okay, that’ll be thirteen thousand eight hundred." The waitress said as she took the evening gown to the cashier.
"Oh, isn’t that Feifei?"
Just as Qin Tian and Murong Fei were waiting to pay at the cashier and leave, a crisp voice could be heard, belonging to a woman.
Murong Fei turned around and saw a slender woman in a red dress walking in from outside the store, arm in arm with a man in a white suit. Seeing Murong Fei, she approached enthusiastically.
"Feifei, long time no see."
The woman, in her twenties and roughly the same height as Murong Fei and very slender, had an extremely refined face that was evidently surgically enhanced, and not just once.
The woman was dressed sexily, her skin pallid, looking very alluring and beautiful after a successful surgery.
Of course, this type of beauty, compared with Murong Fei’s natural beauty, was far inferior; one was naturally grown and made in Huaxia, the other was a mass-produced product from South Korea.
Murong Fei saw the woman in red and managed a forced smile, "Xinyu, long time no see."
Qin Tian could tell that Murong Fei seemed not to care much for this girl.
He carefully observed the girl’s outfit—Louis Vuitton bag, Hermès scarf, high heels, watch, necklace, and the three diamond rings on her hand, each from world-renowned luxury brands—clearly, she came from a very wealthy family.
"Ms. Murong, I’ve heard a lot about you, nice to meet you."
The man next to the woman in red had a standard pretty-boy face, with features that were clearly surgically enhanced.
Qin Tian sized him up for a moment, finding him somewhat familiar; after a few seconds, he realized this man was a third-tier celebrity who seemed to have appeared in several TV dramas.
"Truly a perfect match, both are Korean mass-produced, and both draped in brand-name poser gear..."
Seeing these two, Qin Tian couldn’t help but laugh to himself.
He saw the man extend his hand to shake with Murong Fei as he spoke, but Murong Fei just nodded slightly without any intention of shaking hands, making the man instantly feel very embarrassed.
"I forgot to introduce him, Feifei, this is Wang Zifu, he’s an actor," Zhang Xinyu introduced from the side.
"Haha, just the main actor in three movies and the second lead in seven TV dramas," Wang Zifu laughed.
"Oh, hello," Murong Fei smiled lightly.
"And who is this?"
At this moment, Zhang Xinyu and Wang Zifu’s gazes fell on Qin Tian, who had remained silent next to Murong Fei.
"He’s my friend, Qin Tian." Murong Fei hesitated for a moment before saying, "Qin Tian, let me introduce you. This beautiful lady is my high school classmate, Zhang Xinyu."
Murong Fei kept the introduction short. Zhang Xinyu looked at Qin Tian and nodded, showing no intention of shaking hands, "Mr. Qin, nice to meet you."
She glanced at Qin Tian’s outfit, then at Wang Zifu next to her, immediately appearing full of confidence.
"Feifei, I’ve been back from abroad for two years, and I often see you in the newspapers. You’re in charge of Murong Group, that’s really impressive," Zhang Xinyu complimented Murong Fei.
Murong Fei nodded, about to say something, when Zhang Xinyu added, "Your Murong Group has developed quite well over the years. In the Eastern District, it’s considered a big company. Its market value... should be about a third of my dad’s Tianli Group, right?"
This question made Murong Fei instantly uncomfortable.
Indeed, Zhang Xinyu’s father, Zhang Yunchao, was a well-known president of Tianli Group in Zhonghai City, and his company’s scale was about twice that of Murong Group.
Murong Group is a major enterprise in the Eastern District of Zhonghai City, while Tianli Group is a major enterprise in Zhonghai City, located in the bustling Jinshan District, ranking among the top ten most valuable companies in the city.
"I’m not sure... Murong Group can’t really compare with your Tianli Group," Murong Fei said with a frown, though she could hear the mocking tone in Zhang Xinyu’s voice.
"If there’s nothing else, then we’ll be leaving. Goodbye."
Back in high school, Murong Fei never liked Zhang Xinyu, and that hadn’t changed.
So, after a brief exchange of pleasantries, Murong Fei prepared to leave with Qin Tian.
"Don’t go, hehe, I see you’re here to buy an evening gown? Did you also receive an invitation to tonight’s Tianhai banquet?"
Zhang Xinyu examined Murong Fei, smiling, "Feifei, you’ve become even more striking. Getting an invitation to the Tianhai grand banquet is normal for you."
With pride, Zhang Xinyu said, "I’m going tonight too. This is my dance partner for tonight, also my boyfriend," Zhang Xinyu said glancing at Wang Zifu, who cooperatively held her in his arms.
"Oh, see you tonight then." Murong Fei really had no interest in continuing the conversation. She knew Zhang Xinyu’s character—always showing off, always looking to stir up trouble. She had been on the losing end in high school, and now, she had absolutely no desire to continue talking with Zhang Xinyu.
"Is this your dance partner for tonight?" Wang Zifu spoke looking at Qin Tian, "Mr. Qin, what do you do for a living, to have the honor of being Ms. Fei’s dance partner?"
Qin Tian was silent for a long while before he spoke, laughing, "I’m engaged in a mysterious profession. Haha, it’s a secret. Perhaps you’ll find out later."
"Feifei, he’s not your boyfriend, is he? Hee hee, if that’s the case... your taste... is really... good!"
Zhang Xinyu’s words were loaded with insinuations. When she said "good," she deliberately intensified her tone, clearly being sarcastic, intending to disgust Murong Fei.
