Lin Yu raised her voice and interrupted the intimate atmosphere between Shi Nian and Yun Nan. “You sure know a lot of people, Yun Nan! Gu Man, you can ask Yun Nan to arrange an appointment with Master Song Ning to inspect your collection when you’re free. Although we don’t care if the accessories are real or fake, it’s still good to have them verified, don’t you think?”
Gu Man coldly replied, “Of course. I buy whatever catches my eye; who cares if it’s real or not?”
Yun Nan grinned and nodded. “That’s right; as they say, ‘you can’tjudge happiness in terms ofmoney! It’s good that you have such a mindset, Miss Gu.” Yun Nan didn’t retaliate to any of Yu and Gu Man’s attacks, so the two couldn’t get revenge for her previous slight.
Gu Man wanted to show Yun Nan up, but Yun Nan got her before she even started. She was so angry—what she felt like doing the most now was to flip the table before her.
Lin Yu naturally wasn’t willing to let her best friend be outdone, so she stated, “Why was your marriage to Shi Nian so sudden? I’ve never heard Shi Nian mention you before. Shi Nian, don’t you think you’re being mean to us? We’re your childhood friends! We grew up together! I can’t believe you suddenly dropped the bomb on us like that, or was it a whirlwind romance? Aren’t you being a little hasty?”
Shi Gao echoed Lin Yu’s sentiments. “I’ve heard that quick marriages are usually short-lived. Oh, no offense, I’m not talking about you guys.” So saying, she laughed to herself.
Gu Man gave Yun Nan a pursed-lipped smile. “I didn’t expect Shi Nian to be such a hopeless romantic. Miss Yun, you have to watch out. This kind of love comes and goes quickly! There are plenty of women lining up outside to court a man with Shi Nian’s qualifications.”
Yun Nan widened her eyes as she ate the food Shi Nian had given her. “You don’t happen to be one of them, do you, Miss Gu? Oh my, if that’s so, then you have to tell your fellow sisters in line that we don’t have any plans to divorce for the time being, or in the near future. I suggest you girls stop waiting. It’ll just be a waste of time—time that you girls could have used to find a suitable boyfriend—and it would be terrible if you all end up old and single. Just imagine the guilt Shi Nian would be in.”
Shi Nian’s expression darkened, and he reached out and gently smacked Yun Nan’s head. “What nonsense are you talking about? What’s all this talk of whirlwind romance and divorce? How can our relationship be considered a whirlwind romance? We had been engaged since our birth! We’re married now, and you’re thinking about a divorce? No plans to separate, for the time being, you say? Not in the near future, huh? I’m telling you now, there’s no way I’m ever letting you leave me, so don’t even think about it! Just give up on the idea because that’s impossible!”
Yun Nan laughed as she covered her head, protecting it from Shi Nian. She inwardly commended Shi Nian’s tacit cooperation as she uttered, “Don’t hit my head! Don’t hit my head; I don’t want to become stupid!”
