“A few days ago, I bumped into our class president back then, and she asked me about you. She said that all our classmates miss you; do you think...”
Tears welled up in Pei Ge’s eyes when she heard her best friend’s words.
She wrinkled her nose as warmth spread from her chest to her limbs.
“I...”
Because of the car accident, she left in a hurry back then. Immediately after she had gotten discharged, she transferred schools according to her mother’s will.
One, things had happened too suddenly, and two... her pride would not let her confide to others about her plight.
She knew that if those people in school knew of her plight, they would organize a kind of fundraising event to help her out.
However... that was not what she wanted, nor did she want them to see such a pathetic side of herself.
Thus, she decided to leave without saying goodbye back then.
“Ge Ge, it’s been so long. Everyone really cares and is worried about you. Just let them see that you’re happy to put their minds at ease,” encouraged Tang Xiaoyu. As her best friend for over ten years, how could she not know what the woman was thinking?
“En... you’re right... I shouldn’t let the classmates that care about me continue worrying.”
She sniffled and a smile appeared on her face.
“Does that mean you agree?!” shouted her best friend at her words.
“Yes. In retrospect, the friends attending the wedding from my side is a little lacking.”
She smiled and nodded while holding on to her phone.
“That’s great! Don’t worry, the students from our middle school’s third-year class one then will make you look good! We won’t let the groom’s side belittle you.”
“Pfft! What belittle me? Ziming’s parents treat me really well. Okay, I’ll leave the contacting of our former classmates to you. I’ll just send out the invitation.”
“Okay, I’ll take things from here! I’ll get it done—and done well!”
Chatting with her best friend for quite some time, she eventually hung up the phone with a smile on her face.
Just as she hung up the phone, stretched, and moved to leave the balcony, she saw...
“Eh? Ziming?”
She blinked when she saw the man, who had suddenly appeared behind her.
“When did you get here?”
“I’ve been here since a while ago.”
Ji Ziming raised an eyebrow and then looked at the phone she had set aside.
“What were you guys talking about for it to take this long?” he asked. There was a hint of jealousy in his voice.
For some reason, he sounded petulant to her.
“Nothing much. We just talked about her being a bridesmaid for our wedding.” She stood up from the swing. “Oh, by the way, Xiaoyu and the others are coming over in a few days. We’d better get their accommodation settled!”
“En, it’s nothing big.” He nodded.
“Right, can we add a dozen or so people to the wedding guest list?” She blinked up at him hopefully.
“A dozen or so people?” The man’s eyebrows moved a little when he heard her statement.
“Yeah, I wanna invite my middle-school classmates to our wedding. It’s okay right?”
Seeing that the man did not immediately agree, she thought that it would pose a problem. “If it’s going to be difficult to arrange, then it’s fine. I’ll just treat them to a meal separately.”
“There’s no problem. You can invite whoever you want and need not report to anyone. This is your wedding, after all,” he said as he gently held her palm.
“En... Thank you.” Her face was filled with bliss.
What did I do to deserve a man that loves me so much? I’m so fortunate.
She felt so fortunate that it scared her. It scared her that this would all be an illusion...
“Ziming, you’ll always be by my side, won’t you?”
She put her arms around his waist and leaned against his chest.
“En, I’ll always be by your side. I won’t leave you.”
“Then, I’ll always love you, too... unless you don’t need me anymore...” she muttered with a smile. Little did she know that her murmurs would soon turn into reality.
...
“Miss Qiao, the bachelor and bachelorette parties will be held tomorrow at the east and west wings respectively of the Ji family house.”
In the Ji family mansion, Sister Yun was secretly on the phone in the servants’ quarters.
No one knew that this long-time helper of the family would scheme against her employers. No one knew as well that their loyal helper had intended to do something crazy.
“Sister Yun, all of this is thanks to you. If not, auntie wouldn’t have remembered to hold such a singles’ party.”
Even without mentioning the name, it was clear from the voice that the person she was talking to on the phone was Qiao Jingyun.
“I didn’t really do anything.”
“Anyway, Sister Yun, I’ll be counting on you for the things that follow.”
“Don’t worry; everything’s already in place. We just need the young master and that woman to arrive at the mansion tomorrow.”
“Be careful not to get caught, or else...”
“Don’t worry about me. I’ve always been in charge of the food here. Plus, young master’s friends have always been the playful type. They’re bound to drink quite a bit then...”
“Sister Yun, thank you! Really thank you! I wouldn’t know what to do without you.”
“I’m just doing what I’m supposed to do. You’re the only one good enough for our young master. You’re the only one who can take the position of young mistress.”
“Sister Yun, rest assured; I’ll repay you once I become the Ji family’s young mistress.”
“What are you talking about? I’m not doing all of this for repayment. It’s all for young master’s sake...”
It’s all the young master’s sake, so that he won’t be used by that deceitful woman.
The young master is so outstanding and so perfect.
How can that Pei Ge with no outstanding looks, a great family, or and high education be good enough for the young master?!
That’s why that woman must be rid of!
