Chapter 48 - Jasmine Xuan (2/2)

”Finally, some peace for me.” She grumbled. She didn't care if she didn't give them face; after all, they were only interested in being acquainted with her because of her brother.

”Right, did you see Jasper Mo's date today? Isn't she the daughter from the Chen family?” Jasmine asked Joanna and had failed to notice the sudden change in Luna's mood.

Luna's right eye twitched. Was Jasmine talking about Aiko Chen?

”Hmm… isn't she Jasper Mo's secretary? Why would I care about Aiko Chen when there's already a Luna Jiang sitting beside me?” Joanna sneered back, which earned a laugh from her friend.

Meanwhile, Luna had a shocked expression on her face. Jasper never mentioned to her that Aiko was working under his wing.

Luna bit her lower lip and kept her silence.

'So it was like this…' She suddenly felt really stupid, not seeing the scene clearly.

Anyway, the Xuan and the Chen families had been after each other's neck for years, and everyone within the industry knew about it.

”Don't forget about me, ah! I'm also here with you!” Jasmine Xuan complained but her face one filled with ridicule for Aiko Chen. She didn't like that woman one bit and found her unbearable to talk with.

Since Joanna didn't want to talk about it, Jasmine guessed she couldn't carry on the topic and dropped it.

”Miss Jiang's ring looks expensive. Where did you buy it?” Her gaze landed on Luna's hand and saw her wedding ring.

Luna blushed as she realized what Jasmine asked. She'd totally forgotten to switch the placement of her wedding ring. Initially, she wanted to remove it tonight, but Hero beat her to it and said she wasn't allowed to remove her wedding ring at any given moment.

Noticing the slight blush on her sister-in-law's face, Joanna understood her predicament. She let out a low chuckle before turning to face her friend. Anyway, she couldn't let Jasmine stay in the dark for too long. Besides, she might be helpful later just in case she and Luna couldn't avoid trouble.

She gestured Jasmine Xuan to move to closer so she could whisper in her hear. Joanna pulled her to the sofa she and Luna were seated.

Luna looked away, trying to suppress the blush that crept on her face. She was really glad that Joanna stepped forward to help her. It was really awkward for her to tell her married status to strangers, much more for Jasmine Xuan whom she'd recently met.

As Joanna let Jasmine know the secret, the latter's eyes widened from shock. Her gaze then shifted to Luna and noticed her flushed face.

”Is she really…?”

”Yes. Why would I lie to you?” Joanna replied, taking a sip from her glass to hide her smile.
