229 Two Years Ago (2/2)
Marrying Jin Liwei was equal to becoming the next Madam Jin, but nobody succeeded in even getting his attention, much less in seducing him. There were also already rumours that he was gay. So for these ladies, Jin Chonglin was the easier target. Although marrying him wouldn't make them the next Madam Jin, at least they would still become part of such a wealthy and powerful family.
But now Jin Chonglin was taken by Fan Luo. They congratulated her on her face while calling her a sl*t behind her back. However, they didn't go too far because it seemed that the Fans were now under the Jins' protection. They didn't want to offend them.
Jin Liwei also attended the ball but his cold and intimidating aura prevented others from getting too close to him. He also didn't like getting close to others he deemed unimportant. He stayed with a group of fellow business leaders and conversed with them about…well, business. What else?
After a while, he felt stifled by all the shallow flatteries and cringe-worthy brown-nosing. He excused himself and slipped out of the ball. He headed to a darker and empty part of the garden to breathe in some fresh air.
He stopped when he heard some voices. It was Fan Luo with one of her female cousins.
”I want to stay with Big Brother Lin but he went to the cardroom to play poker with the other men. So boring!” Fan Luo said.
”Don't worry, Luo Luo. Everyone at the ball already saw you together with Big Brother Lin earlier. Now everyone knows that you're his girlfriend. Have you seen the envious looks on those b*tches?”
The two laughed and giggled.
Jin Liwei wasn't interested in listening to such petty female conversation. Fan Luo and her cousin also sounded like were a little drunk. He was about to leave to find another place to relax when their next topic caught his attention.
”Speaking of b*tches, there's a particular annoying one who keeps on following Big Brother Lin around. She's always popping up wherever Big Brother goes. Hmph! Like I don't know that she also wants to seduce my BOYFRIEND like so many of the other sl*ts.”
”Oooh. I think I know who you're talking about. Is it that pop singer?”
”Yeah. Iris Long, that's her name.” Fan Luo produced some vomiting sounds which sent the two of them into another fit of giggles.
'They're drunk,' Jin Liwei thought. Shrugging, he moved to leave but stopped again after hearing Fan Luo's next words.
”Trying to steal Fan Luo's man is a big crime! Big Brother Lin is mine. We belong together! I'm gonna teach that Iris Long a lesson. I heard the b*tch went clubbing tonight. So I asked someone to mess with her car. Let's see if she can still prance her disgusting a** in front of Big Brother Lin after this.”
The cousins laughed like it was the funniest thing ever.
