Baili Shangxie's puffed his small cheeks in annoyance and replied, "If you want to see mom, why don't you call her yourself?"
"If I make the call myself, then what are you here for?" At this, Baili Jia Jue added, "If you perform well this time, you may stay in the human realm after one month, and I will not threaten to throw you back into the demon realm for some time. How does that sound?"
Baili Jia Jue's eyes gleamed, "Deal!" As long as his father stopped threatening to take him back to the demon realm, he could grab his mother and his brother to run away from home! Yes, that's a plan!
It's just that father is so shameless, even stooping down to the point of using me!
Baili Jia Jue was absolutely unapologetic about it and said to Fire Qilin, "Have you found the location of her class reunion?"
Fire Qilin nodded and thought to himself. Of course, I can. Ever since he knew that the Princess Consort was going to join her class reunion, they had been investigating her whereabouts to catch a full grasp of the situation.
"The Princess Consort is having a cup of coffee now. In half an hour, they will depart to the Emperor Hotel to have a meal. The Emperor Hotel is another one of our Jue Wei's properties, and Shadow is managing the place."
"Very well…" Baili Jia Jue smirked evilly and constricted his black pupils into a menacingly cold glare.
On the other hand, Helian Wei Wei had no idea that His Highness was planning to make his way to her. After all, they had already planned that he would fetch her after his work had ended.
Helian Wei Wei thought that His Highness would never lie to her about this. However, she wondered when he founded the Jue Wei Group, making her the direct successor and the wife of the chairman. Helian Wei Wei asked Little Qingchen to check online how much would Jue Wei Group sell for.
Clearly, this pair of mother and son were avaricious misers down to their bones.
Unaware of what was happening, Du Sisi stared at Helian Wei Wei's face from the side and said with a faint smile, "Look, all of you have ignored Wei Wei while discussing about me."
Hearing that, a few of her female classmates looked at each other and laughed again, saying, "Wei Wei, look at how confused you are. You don't know who Chairman Jue is, right. What a pity, you won't know about these things as you're servicing cars all day. Jue Wei Group has subsidiaries in all sorts of businesses globally. Now that is a true business tycoon. If Sisi becomes close to him, she'll be too busy and important to meet us anymore."
"What're you guys talking about? Do I, Du Sisi, seem like such a superficial person?" Du Sisi sipped her coffee and continued, "It's not unusual for Wei Wei to not know Chairman Jue since she's only a mechanic. But Wei Wei, when you have the chance, you can come and visit me. Who knows, you might even get to meet Chairman Jue."
Helian Wei Wei kept her silence and merely gazed at Du Sisi lazily. Her eyes seemed to gleam with amus.e.m.e.nt, almost as if she was mocking or being sarcastic. The bizarre look on her face made Du Sisi feel very uncomfortable.
What's wrong with this woman, it feels like she could see through anyone.
Du Sisi had always despised how Helian Wei Wei was showered with attention. In school, everyone would grovel to her and wanted to befriend her.
However, the apathetic look on the current Helian Wei Wei's face irked her greatly, even though she did not utter a word.
After all, they were jealous and found it detestable that Helian Wei Wei had many male friends.
However, Helian Wei Wei simply regarded them as a foolish prank by some clowns and remained unbothered. Even when she was ostracized in the dormitories, Helian Wei Wei did not seem to care.
At first, Du Sisi thought she was just ignorant or cold-blooded. However, Helian Wei Wei would look at her with mockery in class, as though she could clearly read her intentions.
The look that she had back then, was exactly the same as her expression now.
Du Sisi thought to herself while grasping at the coffee cup in her hands. What a joke. What rights does Helian Wei Wei have to mock me like that now? She's just a lowly mechanic, and raising a kid that no one knows who the father is. How dare she look at me all high and mighty like that?
Du Sisi gave it a bit more thought and said, "Speaking of dating, Wei Wei, it must have been hard raising a child on your own. Have you ever thought about finding someone to take care of you? Don't blame me for being too blunt, we're all old friends here anyway and I simply want the best for you. You were the most talented girl in law school and can steal everyone's heart with a smile. We're not young anymore now, and you even have a son with you too. Any decent man should do, so don't be too picky. If you take your time, you would be too old by then. You'll definitely regret it. How do you plan to live your life in the future? Simply working as a mechanic is honestly unsustainable."
"Sisi's right." Li Meng glanced at Sisi's eyes and uttered with a grin, "Wei Wei, whatever you have done is in the past now. We know a bunch of decent people here. If you really need it, there are the boys from our school that you can be with too. With your looks, you could probably get an average salaryman. It's just that you would have to lower your expectations, since you have a child with you. It's for the child's sake after all…"
Chapter 975 - Class Reunion, Introducing Someone To Wei Wei
"I have a decent candidate for you," said Du Sisi as she put the coffee mug down. She raised her gaze leisurely and added with a mocking smile, "It's a colleague from our office. Although he's just an assistant, he should be able to get a better job in the future. He may be a little chubby, but he's earnest and works diligently. I think he's a great match for Wei Wei. After the reunion is over, I'll introduce him to Wei Wei. Wait a minute, my phone is ringing. Oh, it's Handsome Xiao. Hello? You've arrived at the Emperor Hotel? We'll go there now too." Du Sisi's voice was soft and gentle when she spoke on the phone. She even had a little grin, nodding meekly as she kept her belongings into her bags. She hung up after exchanging greetings with him, and said to her classmates in the cafe,"The private rooms at the hotel have already been booked, Handsome Xiao's waiting for us there now. Let's go, hurry up, pack up your belongings."
Even though they were not in school anymore, a few female classmates had butterflies in their stomachs when they heard Handsome Xiao's name being mentioned, as they were reminded of their youthful adoration.
Li Meng certainly did not forget her main objective during the class reunion - to humiliate Helian Wei Wei completely in front of that man.
Now that everyone is here, the show is about to begin…
Li Meng turned her head to face Du Sisi and exchanged glances with one another, both of them were crystal clear with their wicked plans.
One of the female classmates became very excited and exclaimed, "Handsome Xiao has never joined us for a class reunion before, why did he come this time?"
, he purposely came back from overseas. It's pretty hard to meet Young Master Xiao in person." Du Sisi had a wide grin on her face as she waltzed out, without forgetting to let something slip from her tongue,"Luckily, we're living in the same area in the military district. So, we can at least meet each other once yearly during Chinese New Year…"
Everyone around was fervently discussing the appearance of Handsome Xiao. Little Qingchen hugged his demon plush toy and walked unsteadily as he asked his imperial mother softly, "Pretty Wei Wei, why didn't you tell them that Chairman Jue you've never even heard of, is in fact, my dad?"
"Little Qingchen, I believe that you saw that before I could say anything, they had already decided to move to another location." Helian Wei Wei held him up with a beautiful smile and added, "Furthermore, aren't you curious what happened between Miss Du and His Highness?"
Qingchen was speechless... Obviously, you're the one that is curious. Pretty Wei Wei, do you know that your eyes seem vindictive when you're saying that?
Qingchen seemed very adorable when he was carried out of the cafe by his mother, as his steps were still unstable.
Li Meng stopped and spoke to Helian Wei Wei, "Wei Wei, you don't have a car, right? Do you want to go there with me? Even though it's a 10 minutes' drive by car, it will be quite far to walk there. We can let Qingchen and Cheng Cheng talk on the car too."
The little chubby child gave Helian Qingchen a vicious glance.
When the other male classmates heard that Helian Wei Wei did not own a car, they stopped for a moment to look at her.
As Helian Wei Wei stared at Li Meng's smirk, she knew exactly what her intention was. However, Helian Wei Wei was not concerned with this type of insipid contest, so she casually moved Qingchen up a little in her arms and replied, "It's okay, I came here with my motorcycle. I'll be there in a jiffy."
"You rode a motorcycle here?" Du Sisi turned around, as if she had not heard of it before.
Li Meng interjected, "Wei Wei has a motorcycle. Alright then, we'll meet at the Emperor Hotel."
"Motorcycle?" Some of the classmates' expressions kept shifting as they looked at Helian Wei Wei.
Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows and smiled, "What's wrong? Is riding a motorcycle something weird?"
"No, nothing is weird about it." We just didn't expect that you would be this pathetic. Some of the female classmates chuckled awkwardly, and the other male classmates understood the meaning behind their giggles too. Obviously, they had been brainwashed by Du Sisi and Li Meng's words, thinking that Helian Wei Wei's motorcycle would be similar to a delivery man's motorcycle. However, they did not know that Helian Wei Wei was riding the limited edition BMW Tomahawk that every man dreamt of.
As the parking spaces were in different areas, they kept holding that misconception about Helian Wei Wei, even when they reached the Emperor Hotel.
However, they thought that Helian Wei Wei would be late as she traveled there on her motorcycle.
Unexpectedly, she was already waiting in the lobby when they walked in. She was standing in the middle of the lobby with her maroon, curly hair that reached her waistline, fluttering and flowing like the gentle sea waves. As she stood gracefully in the center of the building, her striking presence caught everyone's undivided attention.
All her classmates had to admit that no matter how poor she was, her ethereal beauty had infused into every part of her with the passing of time. Their heart could not help but race when they saw her again.
Many of her classmates were ushered in by Xiao Zifeng. Du Sisi and Li Meng were cloyingly bending their heads and muttering something to him.
That man was undoubtedly handsome, his tuxedo was tailored perfectly to bring out the elegance in him. His voice was also deep and magnetic, so it was hard to miss his charm and charisma.
Although he was not talking directly to Li Meng, Li Meng's face had already begun to flush a faint shade of red.
Although the others could not witness it, Li Meng who was standing next to him saw everything clearly. The initial shyness in her heart immediately transformed into intense resentment, injecting her eyes with extreme jealousy.
Without waiting for Xiao Zifeng to greet her, Li Meng and Du Sisi walked to Helian Wei Wei and said, "Wei Wei, we didn't know you would reach earlier than us."
"Motorcycles are faster." Helian Wei Wei spoke indifferently with a calm tone. However, she was right. BMW Tomahawk's speed could definitely be faster than many luxurious cars.
Li Meng did not care about her motorcycle's speed. It's just a worn-down, second-hand motorcycle.
But why can't Xiao Zifeng forget about this second-hand woman? Just who does she think she is?
When she thought about it, Li Meng smirked and said to Xiao Zifeng, "Zifeng, you haven't seen Wei Wei for quite a while, right? I finally managed to invite her here after all the trouble. She's raising a child by herself, so it's not easy for her. Just now Sisi and I were talking about introducing someone to her. You should recommend some people to us if you know anyone decent."
"Anyone decent?" Helian Wei Wei smiled but his eyes were expressionless, "Let me think about it." Huh, she already has a child? Xiao Zifeng could not imagine that anyone would be willing to abandon Helian Wei Wei after being with her.
Am I too late?
Chapter 976 - Class Reunion, Father And I Are Coming
No, it's not too late yet.
Xiao Zifeng stared at the person in front of him.
For five years, he had waited patiently for this person.
In the past five years, he had exhausted all types of methods to find her, even resorting to using his family connections to locate her.
Yet, he still failed.
That year was probably the most listless year that he had ever been through.
He regretted not confessing to this person that he liked her when they were both in school.
Since the time when she first won an argument against him, he had madly fallen in love with this woman.
At first, he thought his feelings for her were simply a teenager crush.
After all, he kept thinking about her because she had better knowledge than him in his field of expertise.
In the beginning, their relationship was not that great, because he could not find a way to approach her.
He was surrounded by too many people, but he could not even give up on this feeling accordingly.
Xiao Zifeng felt that problems usually would arise and relationsh.i.p.s would turn ugly once a person became intimate with women of exceptional talents.
He might not have liked her that much, but he always felt a heart-warming sensation whenever he thought of seeing her on that day.
Since he was a child, Xiao Zifeng had always been a very thoughtful person because of his family background. He was m.a.t.u.r.e for his age, and clearly knew what he wanted for his future.
Meeting Helian Wei Wei was probably the only anomaly that he had encountered in his life.
He wanted to control this unforeseen change, hence he planned to get close to Helian Wei Wei.
And at that moment, he knew he was doomed…
Du Sisi saw through Xiao Zifeng's feelings clearly. They came from the same compound, and she too had fallen in love with him, who was a son of the military compound's rear admiral, since a long time ago.
In her mind, she always had this impression that he was very calm in everything that he did. Although both of them stayed in the same compound, his status was much higher than hers.
He was undeniably the youngest leader of this entire military compound, and even the cadets that left this military district would address him as Young Master Xiao.
Nonetheless, there came a day when this man, usually calm and composed, nervously asked her if she had Helian Wei Wei's contact number.
On that particular day, Du Sisi was still feeling pleased with herself that she could invite him to her birthday celebration.
Xiao Zifeng's words felt like a basin of cold water that drowned all of her feelings. From that day onward, Du Sisi, who had disliked Helian Wei Wei from the beginning, despised this woman even more now. At that time, she was best friends with Li Meng. Knowing that her best friend also liked Xiao Zifeng, she 'unintentionally' leaked this information to the latter.
Sure enough, the effect of her action became apparent swiftly. With the help of Li Meng, they succeeded in stopping most female students from talking to Helian Wei Wei.
Especially in the dormitory, where ostracizing her would hurt her the most.
During that period, Du Sisi was extremely happy.
However, after seeing how Xiao Zifeng was gazing at her now, her joy turned into resentment and jealousy that had never left her.
She and Li Meng glanced at each other, and laughed, saying, "Zi Feng, you should think clearly about it. The people around you are not suitable for her. You should at least find someone that matches her. You may not know that after Wei Wei left school, she is now working as a mechanic. Hence, it would be difficult for her to enter our industry now. So, you shouldn't simply get any wealthy bachelors for her, I'm afraid that she'll b
e bullied."
"Sisi, that is so thoughtful of you. Why have I not thought of this? With Wei Wei's situation now, it would be hard for her to fit into a wealthy household," Li Meng looked at Xiao Zifeng and said, "Well, how about if I…"
"It's fine." Before Li Meng's could finish her sentence, Helian Wei Wei's opened her mouth to interrupt her. Her voice was clear, and with her trademark smile, she dismissed their superfluous intentions, saying, "I already have a boyfriend. So, if you're thinking of introducing a partner for me, please just forget about it."
Xiao Zifeng's face froze. He wanted desperately to ask her feelings for him, but he could no longer utter it now. He could only stare at Helian Weiwei's eyes with mixed feelings.
He could even feel the stinging pain, when the anguish that he had hidden deep in his heart extended to the tip of his tongue.
Unlike Xiao Zifeng's feelings, Li Meng's thoughts were much more straightforward. She had sent someone to inquire about Helian Wei Wei at her son's school. The class teacher and school counselors had mentioned that this woman had completed the registration procedure for her son's enrollment all by herself, and they had never seen her with any other person. It was even noted in her file that she was single and unmarried. How could she get a boyfriend in just two short days?
Li Meng made it very obvious that she did not believe Helian Wei Wei, as she glanced at Helian Wei Wei's expression and the others' reactions. Then, she clasped her hands and said, "Wei Wei, I know that you don't want all of us here to worry about you, but you don't have to do this. You must give yourself a chance. I've always seen you taking care of Qingchen all by yourself, how could you possibly have a boyfriend suddenly? "
As soon as Li Meng's words were said, other classmates looked at Helian Wei Wei incredulously and started to make assumptions of her situation. After all, nowadays, some people would make up some non-existent happenings to get out of difficult situations.
Undeniably, they all thought that Helian Wei Wei was trying to salvage her dignity. Hence, she claimed that she already had a boyfriend when in actual fact, her 'boyfriend' did not exist.
