Jenni was somewhat embarrassed, “I already have two kids, it doesn’t make sense to talk about being young. If we are talking about young age, those who are not married or have children like you guys are truly young!”

Those who have given birth and those who haven’t are ultimately different.

Eva Webster said with a smile, “Jenni, you have no idea how much we envy you. You’re still so young and already have two kids, plus I’ve heard your husband is pretty impressive!”

“He’s just okay,” Jenni said.

Eva Webster, clutching Jenni’s hand, said, “You’re too modest! Just a few days ago, Wu Ling and the others were talking about how your husband is a local from Capital City!”

Jenni nodded, “He is indeed a local from Capital City.”

Eva Webster said with a smile, “No wonder you’re so well-preserved!”

Upon closer inspection, Jenni’s entire ensemble consisted almost entirely of designer brands – brands far beyond Eva’s reach.

These Capital City natives certainly are on another level.

After all, when Jenni was a student, she was just a simple bread from the countryside, not even knowing what LV and Hermes were.

Now she has transformed into a wealthy wife.

How can one not be envious of that?

Jenni continued, “So, how have you been these years?”

Eva Webster replied proudly:

“I’m just the same old, after graduation I returned to South City. Now I’m a department head at a company and my annual salary is just six hundred thousand, not even enough to buy a bathroom in Capital City! Naturally, I’m nowhere near comparing with you guys.”

Jenni nodded, “Actually, I have always envied you. Unlike me, who spends my days revolving around my husband and children. Life is just too dull!”

The life of a full-time wife is not easy.

Jenni really wants to get back to her career again.

But her children still need her care.

And there are the elderly at home.

To Eva, Jenni’s words sounded like showing off.

Isn’t being a full-time wife a good job?

No need to go to work, no nine to five, no work pressure, only to take care of the kids every day.

On top of that, Jenni has a maid at home, so she doesn’t even need to watch the kids.

Eva Webster continued, “Jenni, you mustn’t say that! Your life is what I’m striving for.”

Jenni forced a smile, “You will understand after you’re married.”

Everyone says being a full-time wife is easy.

In actuality, only those who have experienced it can tell if being a full-time wife is really that easy.

“I don’t even have a boyfriend yet,” said Eva half-jokingly, “Jenni, if you have a suitable one, you could actually introduce him to me.”

Jenni is now a local in Capital City, hence the circles she mingles in and resources she gains are different.

Although Eva Webster had her sights set on Isla Astir, she couldn’t miss out on Jenni’s connection.

Jenni nodded, laughing, “Once I come across a good one, I’ll definitely introduce him to you.”

As they conversed, another classmate named Susanna Clark arrived.

Susanna Clark works at a foreign company in Capital City earning a million in annual salary, dresses very fashionably, and also carries the latest model of Hermes.

The look of envy in Eva Webster’s eyes as she looked at Susanna Clark was not hidden.

Seeing her classmates who were behind her in the past doing significantly better than her now was a tough pill to swallow.

After all, her grades were the best among them back in school.

After Susanna Clark sat down, the three engaged in polite chatter as Eva’s eyes settled upon Susanna’s Hermes bag, “Susanna, this bag of yours seems rather expensive, isn’t it?”

Susanna Clark responded with a laugh, “I believe the latest model of Hermes goes for over a million.”

Hearing this, Eva sighed secretly.

Rich people are quite different, can’t even remember exactly how much their bags cost.

“You’re really rich!” said Eva Webster.

Susanna Clark added, “I only have an annual salary of 1.2 million; I can’t afford this bag. A suitor gave me this not too long ago.”

Suitor!

Just a suitor and he was willing to give such an expensive bag!

Hearing this, Eva Webster became even more envious.

If she had such high-quality suitors, she would marry straight away!

What a pity.

Her suitors wouldn’t even gift a ten thousand bag.

Indeed, comparisons are odious.

At this point, Eva Webster was increasingly regretting not staying in Capital City to develop herself after graduation.

If she had also stayed in Capital City, perhaps she would be receiving million-dollar Hermes bags at this time.

Jenni, who was already familiar with such things as she was part of this circle, asked with a smile, “How is it going with that guy?”
