The girls turned around and saw that it was Yu Xin, then turned back around. One of them held a glass of wine and said arrogantly, "I was wondering who it was. So it's Duanmu Que's adopted daughter."
Yu Xin stood there and glared at her. "You don't have the right to talk like that here."
The girl stood up and looked at Yu Xin angrily. "What do you mean?" The girls next to them pulled them back, afraid that they would fight.
The girl angrily said to Yu Xin, "Who do you think you are? Today is Young Master Que's birthday party. Everyone is wearing a dress. Look at what you're wearing. Are you going to respect your beloved Young Master Que like this? "
Yu Xin's face turned ugly. She took a step forward and reached out to hit the girl. I stepped forward and grabbed her arm. She turned around and looked at me, her face full of anger. The girls were also scared and sat there motionless, looking at us.
I glanced at the girl and gestured for her to stop talking. Then, I turned to look at Yu Xin. She flung my hand away and was about to leave when I pulled her arm. "Wait a minute."
Yu Xin turned around and looked at me. "What do you want?"
I turned to the girl who provoked her and said: "I think you might have misunderstood. Yu Xin's dress was given to her by Duanmu Que. Yu Xin felt that it was very important so she wore it to the party."
The girls seemed to understand something and nodded in unison. I turned back to Yu Xin and smiled at her. She glared at me and shook off my hand again. "Don't think I'll appreciate what you did!" Then she turned around and left. I looked at her back with an indescribable feeling in my heart.
I sat back down in my seat. The girls didn't leave either. The girl who had a conflict with Yu Xin patted her chest and said, "That Yu Xin is still as annoying as before."
I looked at her in confusion. "Why do you say that?"
A quiet girl next to her told her what had happened. It turned out that Duanmu Que and Yu Xin used to be classmates in the same high school as them. That school was an elite school in A City. According to Yu Xin's identity, she was not qualified to enter that school, but Duanmu Que asked his parents to arrange for Yu Xin to go to school with him. When he was in high school, Duanmu Que was very popular. Many girls in the school chased after him. However, as long as a girl approached Duanmu Que, she would be stopped by Yu Xin. She even threatened those girls who wanted to pursue Duanmu Que. Some of the girls couldn't stand Yu Xin's threats and had to give up their feelings for Duanmu Que. However, some of them didn't give up and continued to oppose Yu Xin throughout their high school life. Of course, one of them was the girl who had a conflict with Yu Xin.
I looked at them and asked curiously, "Did you know that Yu Xin likes Duanmu Que?"
One of the girls said, "At that time, the whole school knew because she threatened one of our good sisters. We took advantage of the time when she wasn't in the classroom and threw everything in her bag to the ground. Her bag was filled with photos of Duanmu Que. There was also a diary in it. She wrote how good Duanmu Que was to her. When she came back and saw it, she went crazy. We were all scared. Later, she took a leave of absence for a while. When she came back, she changed classes. "
"Does Duanmu Que know about this?" I glanced at Duanmu Que, who was busy socializing not far from us.
"At that time, Young Master Que didn't know. However, I'm not sure if he knew about it later. After all, Yu Xin was a very solitary person in our school. She didn't have any good friends. Her looks were average, and no one pursued her. Gradually, that matter was forgotten."
I thought about it. Yu Xin's solitary personality was related to her growth. She probably felt inferior from the beginning.
The girls were still gossiping, and I couldn't interrupt them. I just sat there and listened to them, laughing and accompanying them. At this moment, Duanmu Que walked towards us with a wine glass in his hand. He walked behind the girls and said with a smile, "Beautiful ladies, is it convenient for you to give me a chance to discuss some matters with my wife?" The girls nodded and left. Duanmu Que sat across from me, leaning back in his chair with a tired face.
My heart ached when I saw his tired face. I said softly, "You've worked hard."
He looked at me and smiled. "It's not hard at all. No matter how hard it is, it doesn't feel hard when I see you."
I covered my mouth and laughed. "You're so tired, but you still have a glib tongue. We'll have to go and greet you later."
He nodded helplessly and leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed. Seeing that he was really tired, I walked behind him and gently pressed his shoulder. He opened his eyes and looked at me, then closed them again. He looked like he was enjoying it.
At this time, Duanmu Tachio brought an older man to stand in front of us. The man looked at me and pressed Duanmu Que's shoulder. He smiled and said to Duanmu Tachio, "Lixiong, look at how happy your son and daughter-in-law are. When I look at them, I think of you and Xiao Ya. You two used to love each other so much." Hearing the man's words, I blushed and stopped what I was doing.
Duanmu Que opened his eyes and saw Duanmu Tachio and the man. He immediately stood up. "Hello, Uncle Zhang."
The man nodded. "Xiao Que, you have a good wife. You should cherish her." Then, Duanmu Tachio left with the man.
Looking at their departing figures, I suspiciously asked Duanmu Que, "Who was that man?"
"That man is my father's business partner. They've been working together for a long time."
I suddenly remembered the conversation I had with those people about Yu Xin. I curiously asked Duanmu Que, "Did you and Yu Xin go to the same high school?"
Duanmu Que looked at me. "Yeah. How did you know?"
I held his arm and whispered in his ear, "Did you know that Yu Xin liked you from that time?"
Duanmu Que suddenly lowered his head. He didn't say anything. I quietly looked at him. "Don't think too much. I'm not angry."
Duanmu Que hugged me in his arms and whispered, "I know. Her feelings for me are very special. I know it's the feeling of liking someone. She hasn't changed since high school." He looked at me and continued, "But now, my heart only has you. There's no room for anyone else. No matter how good she is to me, she's just a little sister. She'll never be the one I love."
I stroked his face. "How could I not understand your feelings for me? But do you know what Yu Xin did to those girls to monopolize you? "
