Chapter 547 - Jealous Of Her Beauty
"You agreed?"
Tan Sangsang was somewhat agitated. "Of course not, I specially took a day off from work to ask you about this. I"m not close to them at all, I just thought that I should ask you since you"ve been their cla.s.smate for three years after all."
"You think I care for them?" Yan Jinyi asked rhetorically.
Tan Sangsang shook her head and said, "No."
In the past, the softhearted Yan Jinyi might give in and agree but it was impossible for the current Yan Jinyi to do so.
"Yeah, so turn him down."
In her opinion, cla.s.smate gatherings are all about secretly competing and showing off to each other.
Tan Sangsang had probably been used as a mouthpiece by Chen Haisheng whose main motive was to ask Yan Jinyi out instead.
Yan Jinyi remembered clearly that Tan Sangsang had been bullied and ostracized by them in high school because she was overweight back then.
"I"ll tell him no now."
As she spoke, Tan Sangsang pulled out her cell phone and was about to reply him but Yan Jinyi suddenly thought of something and stopped her. "Come on, let"s go."
"Huh?"
"There are a few girls in our high school cla.s.s who used to bully you all the time, right?"
"I..."
Not waiting for Tan Sangsang to finish her sentence, Yan Jinyi interjected, "No one is allowed to bully my woman. Let"s turn up to the gathering, I"ll bully them to get back at them for you."
Seeing how fierce and aggressive she was, Tan Sangsang felt a sudden soreness in her nose. "Forge it, don"t go if you don"t want to. That happened ages ago, I"ve long forgotten about it."
"You"ve forgotten? They called you a fat pig and tore up your textbooks. They used your name to write love letters to a lewd man. How could you have forgotten about those?"
"It"s such a pity that I didn"t arrive here earlier. Otherwise, those people wouldn"t have had the opportunity to bully Tan Sangsang. Tan Sangsang may be kindhearted but I"m not."
Besides, many of the girls in their high school cla.s.s had also slandered Yan Jinyi all the time during high school because they were jealous of her beauty.
"Jinyi, there"s really no need for that. They"re just..."
"If I say it is necessary, it is necessary. It just so happens that I haven"t been in a good mood lately and I need an outlet to vent my frustration. Since they"ve showed up themselves, how can I not fulfill their wishes?"
Before attending the gathering, Yan Jinyi specifically asked Huo Zihang to run a background check on those former cla.s.smates of theirs.
The cla.s.s president Chen Haisheng was now working in a medium-sized enterprise as a sales manager but he was said to have become much more mercenary.
Ye Minran, the leader of the few girls who bullied Tan Sangsang, was said to have married a wealthy man and become even more arrogant.
She was also the one who wanted to see Yan Jinyi.
Yan Jinyi was dressed casually in a white sweater and a pair of jeans but Tan Sangsang had specifically dolled herself up and to be frank, she was quite pretty.
"Jinyi, you"re going in like this?"
Yan Jinyi looked at her outfit and asked, "Why? What"s wrong?"
"Ye Minran and her clique are really annoying. If you"re not well-dressed, she"ll definitely mock you again."
Yan Jinyi tossed her long hair and said, "Well, I"m a natural beauty and I can trump everyone even if I show up barefaced. She won"t have the cheek to mock me."
"…"
"Ye Minran may not be as beautiful as Jinyi but... is it really good to be so narcissistic?"
The gathering was held in a five-star hotel in the city. When Tan Sangsang and Yan Jinyi arrived, most of their cla.s.smates were already present.
Ye Minran"s husband had apparently booked a large private room for them.
At this moment, there was a large platter of delicacies in the room and everyone was dressed to the nines.
The moment Yan Jinyi and Tan Sangsang walked in, they became the center of attention, especially Yan Jinyi who was currently one of the most popular actresses. Besides, she was naturally gorgeous so she could still steal the limelight even though she was dressed in a simple outfit.
"Oh my G.o.d, you"ve become so beautiful. Indeed, being a celebrity is just different."
"Yes, yes, when we were in school, I always thought that Jinyi was destined to become a huge celebrity in the future.. I didn"t expect to have guessed correctly."
