Su Qianrou did not manage to buy the platinum bag, but since Ning Lihua could not go, she would take her bag instead and change into the custom-made dress from brand L. She turned around in front of the mirror and smiled sweetly, “mom, do I look good in this?”

Ning Lihua was sitting in front of the mirror, her well-maintained face was covered in wrinkles after today’s incident. When she saw her daughter, she smiled and said, “yes, you look good in anything.”

In fact, Ning Lihua was quite pretty. She was in her early forties, but she looked like a young lady who was not even in her thirties. Her skin was as fair as snow, but she had a more mature charm than a young lady.

To the middle-aged man, a woman like her was indeed very attractive.

However, her words and actions were incredibly tacky, especially when compared to Su Ji’s mother.

“I heard that Song Heng will be there today? The movie he directed has already earned 50 million dollars in the box office. He’s quite talented,” Ning Lihua said.

Su Qianrou’s face was flushed red, and her feelings were obvious. However, after a moment, she furrowed her brows in distress, “mom, Song Heng is Su Ji’s ex-boyfriend. If I get close to him, will dad be mad?”

At the mention of Su Ji, Ning Lihua gritted her teeth in anger. “He’s already her ex-boyfriend, why would your dad be mad? Besides, Song Heng is talented and has a bright future. Is she worthy of him?”

Su Junye, who was beside her, also adjusted his suit. “Mom, what’s wrong with Su Ji today? Did she take something and become smarter?”

“If there’s really that kind of pill, I’ll give it to you first!” Ning Lihua snorted. “She’s just lucky today. With her stupid look, she’ll definitely make a fool of herself when she performs at the Pei family’s house later. You two must record it for me!”

“No problem!”

It was the middle of summer, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.

A black Maybach was driving along the wide boulevard.

In the pa.s.senger seat, Su Ji propped her chin on one hand and looked out of the window at the scenery that was moving past her.

The original owner was initially wearing the most popular body-fitting clothes of the girl group. Although her long legs were fair, she was too thin and looked even more pitiful in that outfit. With the heavy makeup and her fiery red lips, she did not look good.

Before she left the house, Su Ji changed into a light-colored dress. Fortunately, she did not come from a conservative society, so she could easily adapt to the modern style of clothing.

After was.h.i.+ng away the heavy makeup, she only put on some lip gloss. The sunlight shone on the tip of her tall nose, and her long and thick eyelashes fluttered occasionally. Even her profile was stunning.

Su Junye, who was sitting in the back row, was dumbfounded.

He felt that something was different, but he couldn’t tell what it was.

In the past, Su Ji was timid and always had her head lowered. She was also afraid to look others in the eye. However, at the moment, Su Ji was calm and elegant, like a pearl that was s.h.i.+ning brightly.

“To be honest, she is really pretty. Why isn’t she popular?” he nudged Su Qianrou.

Pretty?

She’s pretty?

Su Qianrou’s mood instantly dropped. “Mom’s right. If there’s really a pill that can make one smarter, I would buy you a box.”

She turned around and saw Su Cunyi, who was concentrating on reviewing a contract, sitting on the other side.

Su Qianrou looked at him and carefully said, “dad, are you still angry with mom? It really was an accident…”

“Don’t mention her again,” Su Cunyi interrupted sternly.

However, Su Qianrou did not stop there. She observed Su Cunyi’s micro-expression and saw that he seemed to have loosened up, so she hugged his arm and said coquettishly, “mom knows that she’s wrong. She doesn’t want Su Ji’s money. She just wants to help her manage it. Su Ji is innocent, so mom is afraid that she will be cheated.”

Although they were twins, Su Qianrou was obviously smarter than Su Junye. Previously, when Su Junye defended their mother, she didn’t say a word.

She knew that her father was in a fit of anger at that time, and saying more would produce the opposite effect. Now that her father had calmed down a little, she could say something nice to make things better.

Su Cunyi snorted. He didn’t say if he believed it or not. “In the future, if you and your brother want to buy anything, just let me know. Your sister works really hard to earn the money.”

Unexpectedly, Su Junye was annoyed when he heard this. “Dad, you’re too biased. The Su family spent so much money on her. Shouldn’t she repay us a little?”

Before he could finish his sentence, Su Ji, who was sitting in the pa.s.senger seat, snorted, “I think we spent more money to educate an idiot like you.”

She didn’t turn around and just looked out of the window indifferently.

The three people in the back almost thought they had heard wrong.

In the past, Su Ji had never dared to speak like that.

However, she was right. This year, the twins had just finished their college entrance examination. Ning Lihua had persuaded Su Cunyi to buy Su Junye a sports car that cost more than a million yuan. Su Qianrou had also attended an etiquette cla.s.s that cost hundreds of thousands.

On the other hand, the original owner did not have any decent clothes in her wardrobe.

Su Junye knew that he was in the wrong, and his face instantly turned red.

Just as he was about to retort, the driver suddenly slammed on the brakes. He knocked his head on the window.

“What’s wrong with you?!”

The driver, Uncle w.a.n.g, ignored him and looked at the rearview mirror with a smile. “Sir, we’ve arrived.”

Most people thought that the most expensive land in A City was the bustling Commercial Street in the city center. Little did they know that the quiet area to the west of Commercial Street and to the south of Dujiang Bridge was the real fortune. Those who lived there were definitely not ordinary rich people.

And the Pei family house was located in the inner area, surrounded by a forest and a lake, with the best view.

This used to be a magnificent royal residence, but after several renovations, it became an elegant and traditional mansion with a courtyard.

At this moment, the Pei family’s house was already bustling with noise and excitement. The s.p.a.cious courtyard was filled with all kinds of luxury cars, and the Maybach paled in comparison.

An old man with an imposing appearance was receiving the congratulatory messages from the guests.

Today was Pei Qingshen’s 79th birthday and it was a grand celebration.

His body was still strong. There was a sense of n.o.bility and fierceness in his eyes. But when he heard that the girl group who would be performing later had arrived, he suddenly smiled.

“Get the third young master down here!” He ordered a servant.

Many people knew that the old master of the Pei family was a fan of these idols.

However, very few people knew that he was actually trying to pick a suitable granddaughter-in-law for his third grandson, who was talented and handsome, but had no interest in women!
