When Zhang Xiaoran saw this, she had a smug and proud smile on her face. Her expression was simply too arrogant, as if she was a n.o.ble white swan now.
She waved her hand. “My boyfriend isn’t that outstanding anymore. He just changed careers after graduation and sold some small things to earn some money.”
“There’s still a gap between his car and those super sports cars.”
Zhang Xiaoran also knew that her boyfriend Zhang Bin’s Ferrari 812 was not a new car. It was a second-hand car, but even a second-hand car was worth millions.
Therefore, she was proud enough.
Meanwhile, Zhang Bin also heard the conversation and walked over after leaving the table.
“Zhang Bin, you’re here.” Zhang Xiaoran looked at Zhang Bin with a smile on her face. Her mother’s face was also full of smiles. She was simply satisfied with this son-in-law.
After all, such a son-in-law gave their family confidence. They raised their heads even more in front of their aunts and uncles.
Meanwhile, after listening to their compliments for a while, Zhang Bin pretended to be humble and said, “I’m just relatively lucky. I graduated from a university under Project 9851 in the first place. There are many students who are better than me. Some of them have an annual salary of more than a million yuan. It can be said to be very easy.”
An annual salary of more than a million yuan!
He even said that it was very easy!
Meanwhile, everyone looked at Zhang Bin with widened eyes. They simply could not believe what he had said. Wasn’t this too amazing?
After all, adults like them were already in their fifties or sixties. After such a long time, they had only managed to earn three to four hundred thousand yuan a year. This was considered a relatively good life, but these young people had an annual salary of a million yuan.
“Young people nowadays are really promising.”
“Xiaoran, you’re so lucky to have found a boyfriend like Zhang Bin.”
“The future is promising.”
…
Zhang Xiaoran and Zhang Bin listened to everyone’s words with pride on their faces.
Then, Zhang Xiaoran looked at Mrs. Liu. “Auntie Liu, I remember that Yanran works at Huaxia Bank, right? She works in a bank, so she should meet a lot of high-quality customers. She should think about dating.”
“I’m old now. Yanran usually doesn’t tell me about her, whether it’s work or life.”
“Xiaoran, you’re really promising now. You even found such a good husband. Not bad.”
Mrs. Liu was a little embarra.s.sed for a moment. She said a few words and even praised Zhang Xiaoran.
When Zhang Xiaoran’s mother heard this, it was as if she had eaten honey. Her face was even more proud. “After Xiaoran graduated from school, she worked in a financial company. Her annual salary is now three to four hundred thousand yuan. It was a coincidence that she met Xiao Bin. By the way, I remember that Xiao Bin has many good friends.
“Moreover, didn’t Xiao Bin just say that his cla.s.smates could easily earn a million yuan a year? Xiao Bin, if you have such a good candidate, can you introduce him to my friend’s daughter, Liu Yanran?”
After Mrs. Zhang said this, Zhang Xiaoran’s face immediately darkened. Then, she looked at her mother. “Mom!”
“What are you doing?!”
“I remember that Yanran just entered Huaxia Bank not long ago, right?”
“Although Huaxia Bank is not bad, Xiaobin’s friends are all from universities under Project 985. All of them are arrogant. How can they be introduced so casually?”
“If anything bad happens later, Xiaobin will be blamed, right?”
“After all, the conditions of the man and woman don’t seem to be very compatible.”
After these words, even Mrs. Liu couldn’t stand it anymore. These words were really too unpleasant. What did she mean when she said that the conditions of the man and woman weren’t compatible?
What did she mean by a casual introduction?
What did this mean?!
The meaning was simply too obvious!
Didn’t she mean that Yanran didn’t match Zhang Bin’s friends in terms of status?
She was not worthy of being introduced to them at all, right?
Meanwhile, many people simply ignored Mrs. Liu’s expression and followed Zhang Xiaoran’s words.
They even began to persuade Mrs. Liu.
“That’s right. It’s better to let Yanran improve herself more. Nowadays, men and women have to be equal. The man is powerful, but the woman can’t be a vase, right?”
“You’ll be looked down upon.”
“When your horizons, ability, and self-worth have increased, when you find a partner in the future, the other party will definitely be a high-quality man. If not, indeed, it won’t be easy to find a partner.”
…
With every sentence, they raised the status of the powerful and stepped on the weak.
It was naturally Zhang Xiaoran, Zhang Bin, and the others whose status was being raised. Meanwhile, Liu Yanran, who was about the same age as them, and her parents were being stepped on.
If not for the fact that she could not embarra.s.s herself, Mrs. Liu would have left long ago.
Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaoran, Zhang Bin, Mr. Zhang, and Mrs. Zhang were echoed by countless people that night.
They even felt like they were floating.
They were definitely arrogant!
Towards the end of the meal, everyone started speaking endlessly, and those unpleasant words followed.
Finally, after a while, the meal was over.
Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu, and everyone else walked out.
Now, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were very happy. They looked at Mr. and Mrs. Liu, and then at Zhang Bin. “Xiao Bin, why don’t you send Auntie Liu and Uncle Liu back?”
After saying this, before Mr. and Mrs. Liu could decline, Zhang Xiaoran, who was at the side, looked at her father and stomped her feet, her face filled with anxiety. “Dad, Zhang Bin’s car is a Ferrari sports car.”
Then, she looked at Mr. and Mrs. Liu. “Uncle Liu, Auntie Liu, I’m really sorry. It’s not that I don’t want Zhang Bin to send you two off, but his car only has two seats. He’ll have to make two trips. Why don’t I help you two get a taxi?”
Mr. and Mrs. Liu’s expressions darkened again. However, as adults, such a scene did not allow them to fly into a rage. At that moment, they had helpless expressions on their faces as they waved their hands. “We drove here, so we won’t trouble you.”
“Alright, alright.”
Zhang Xiaoran also spoke hypocritically, but the disdain and pride in her eyes were obvious.
“By the way, Auntie Liu, didn’t Yanran say that she was coming? Did she go home first?” Zhang Xiaoran still wanted to show off in front of Liu Yanran, so she added another sentence.
“She might have gone back first.” With that, Mrs. Liu prepared to leave. She really did not want to stay here any longer.
How annoying.
Just as Mr. and Mrs. Liu were about to leave…
In the distance, a roar immediately sounded.
The roar was like an awakened ferocious beast!
It was savage and ruthless!
