Tang Guangmei’s Audi A6 came to a stop. Her daughter, Gu Xiaoting—the one who hadn’t attended the ancestral rites last time—got out from the co-pilot seat.
She was dressed in Gucci from head to toe.
But it was all from last year’s collection.
Naturally, she noticed Bai Ningbing’s pineapple print was from today’s new release.
After all, she spent all day on her phone checking out the latest luxury goods—how could she not know? It’s like how many people can’t afford cars but spend all day looking at luxury cars online, right? That doesn’t stop them from knowing about them.
Gu Xiaoting also knew that what Bai Ningbing wore was all authentic, not some sophisticated knockoffs.
Even more striking was Tangya’s outfit.
Gu Xiaoting estimated that Tangya’s entire ensemble must have cost at least close to a hundred thousand.
"Third Aunt, Auntie, you two go on up first. I’m going to buy some disposable cups and pick up some drinks!" Tang Yue said.
Bai Ningbing replied, "Sister Tang Yue, let me go with you!"
"Sure, okay!" Tang Yue nodded.
Tangya, Tang Guangmei, and Gu Xiaoting exchanged awkward smiles and then headed upstairs.
Gu Xiaoting’s relationship with Tang Yue and Bai Ningbing wasn’t good.
After all, her family used to be the wealthiest among them and somewhat looked down on their poorer relatives.
So, they never liked playing together, even as children.
In the community convenience store, Tang Yue whispered, "Ningbing, your boyfriend treats you really well!"
Upon hearing Tang Yue mention Luofeng, Bai Ningbing’s face broke into a smile; she felt a sweet warmth inside.
"Oh, him? Actually, he’s quite a bully!" Bai Ningbing said with a playful HMM.
Tang Yue secretly felt envious. "Did he really give you a house, like the one in the photos?"
"Yes, over at Butterfly Villa. It even comes with several parking spots. Overall, it’s pretty nice!" Bai Ningbing nodded.
"Sigh, I’m so envious!" Tang Yue sighed.
"Sister Tang Yue, I saw your Moments Circle. Has something been troubling you recently?" Bai Ningbing changed the topic.
Tang Yue didn’t respond immediately.
Instead, she bought some disposable cups and two cases of drinks. After paying and walking out of the convenience store, she finally replied, "I’ve been having a really tough time lately; it feels like both my love life and career are collapsing."
"Everything will get better!" Bai Ningbing comforted her. "Sister Tang Yue, you need to look forward and forget what’s making you unhappy!"
Bai Ningbing didn’t press for details.
After all, wouldn’t that be like rubbing salt in her wounds? If Tang Yue wanted to talk about it, she would have elaborated.
"How could I forget everything so easily?" Tang Yue said, looking at Bai Ningbing. "I heard your boyfriend is from Shanghai, right?"
"Yes!" Bai Ningbing nodded.
But she had really overestimated Jiamei Construction Company. Its current valuation wouldn’t even exceed one billion. Luofeng was willing to spend money simply because he had it—that was all.
