"I’m a friend of Miss Deng, she left her wallet with me earlier when we were having tea," Su Ziceng thought for a moment and took out a Hermes clutch from her bag.
The receptionist recognized the expensive wallet and said, hesitantly, "I’m sorry, Miss, I’m afraid you’ve mistaken someone. The lady who went in earlier was Miss Liao. Moreover, the gentleman has instructed not to disturb them now, you see..."
"Miss Liao? You must be mistaken; her surname is Deng, and I’m certain of it," Su Ziceng insisted strenuously.
"We would not have made such a mistake. Miss Liao is our regular visitor," the receptionist bowed her head to check the registration list again, replying politely. Clearly, in their eyes, Su Ziceng was not to be underestimated. Taking advantage of her looking down, Su Ziceng leaned forward and caught sight of a strange name.
"Miss, you can’t do this," the receptionist, frightened by this elegantly dressed but unconventional young lady, quickly pulled the list back.
"Liao Chenchen?" In the brief exchanges, Su Ziceng managed to see one of the names. In such a star-rated hotel, men and women are required to register together.
Why isn’t it Deng Jiani, although her appearance today is different from usual? In school, Deng Jiani usually wears light makeup, but today she unexpectedly wore heavy makeup. At first glance, it did make her almost unrecognizable.
Because of the Wine Shop incident, Su Ziceng almost forgot about the Deng Jiani matter. It’s only today, when she accidentally encountered her, that she remembered, the hottest period between Deng Jiani and Hang Yishao was the second semester of their freshman year. She heard Hang Yishao had already rented an apartment off-campus. Counting the time, it was almost right.
Su Ziceng had always disliked Deng Jiani; her habit of spending money to send women away was formed since then. She still remembers when she revealed that she was Hang Yishao’s fiancée, Deng Jiani even burst into tears.
That outwardly innocent department belle, whom she spent a million to get rid of, caused Hang Yishao to have a fight with her over this matter.
"This time it is easier, I was just worrying about not having a million to send Deng Jiani away. Su Ziceng didn’t plan to use her family’s money; she should consider her own cash.
Monday is the usual time for horse riding lessons, but Su Ziceng and Yan Wuxu chose a baking class instead and didn’t go to the horse riding class. But today was special, Su Ziceng was going to "join the fun".
After a successful demonstration of the Tiramisu that was covered in the last class, making it again became quite proficient. Even the eggs that Su Ziceng was responsible for were rare to have only one broken egg. Wen Maixue, after checking, finally agreed to let them pass smoothly.
"The class ended earlier than expected," Yan Wuxu finished cleaning up and looked at Su Ziceng carefully, wrapping up the well-made blocks of Tiramisu, "shouldn’t we start preparing for the finance class worksheet assignment now? I was helping at home last weekend, and left the homework aside."
"Okay, but before that, let’s first go to the equestrian field to ’deliver a big gift’," Su Ziceng, looking at the beautifully wrapped bags, chuckled happily.
Yan Wuxu hadn’t reacted yet and said, "Are you going to deliver cakes? Indeed, the previous Tiramisu was disastrous; it even made Teacher Pei Luo suffer. Let him see our new work, but you can deliver it; I won’t go." She was still a bit wary; she didn’t want to appear wherever Fei Qing was.
"No way, the more spectators for a good show, the better it is. Let me tell you what I ran into yesterday..." Su Ziceng recounted the occurrence from yesterday.
"Really!?" Yan Wuxu and Deng Jiani had some interactions before. Deng Jiani always appeared disdainful of her background; she wouldn’t have guessed she was that kind of person, too.
On the equestrian field, the students had just finished riding, Hang Yishao and Fei Qing found a corner and secretly started smoking.
"I say, look around if there is a suitable house, I want to rent one," Hang Yishao, beaming with excitement, said.
"What, did you score?" Fei Qing glanced at Deng Jiani galloping on the field, her cheeks reddened by the sun, making her look stunning in her riding outfit.
"Mhm, last night we both drank a bit too much and ended up lying together," Hang Yishao chuckled, "I asked her, and she was willing."
"Tsk tsk, are you thinking of settling down? Don’t forget about the Su Family’s senior and junior, you haven’t dealt with them yet," Fei Qing thought about Su Ziceng. Knowing this, she would definitely be furious.
"Future matters, who can say for sure," Hang Yishao thought about Su Ziceng at the banquet that day and the scene where she was whispering with Shang Yin; he grunted somberly.
Yesterday, he started working at Hang Family’s business sectors. There was a pile of work, making him incredibly busy. Last night, when he went out to relax with Deng Jiani, they ended up drinking more. Yet, Deng Jiani knew how to soothe hi,m and she was still a "genuine article."
"The future is uncertain, but your main and secondary wives are about to directly confront each other now, look, it’s either to forgo the junior for the senior, or..." Fei Qing pointed towards the field. Su Ziceng and Yan Wuxu were walking their way, with several pieces of cake in their hands.
It seems there was no need for him to trip her up from behind, Su Ziceng was actually showing herself up. Su Ziceng seemed to be in a good mood; the exquisite packaging bags flashed with dazzling light, and her face brimmed with smiles.
On the other hand, Deng Jiani also reined in her horse, watching warily as Su Ziceng walked towards Hang Yishao.
