Sun Yanan's words were full of arrogance and a sense of superiority.
Especially when she saw the rubber shoes Qin Xuan was wearing, with some mud still stuck on the soles, her disgust grew even stronger.
Liu Xinxin chimed in, "Yanyan, what are you up to? How could you be with him? Don't tell me you want to bring him along too..."
Chen Yan frowned.
She felt that Sun Yanan was going too far with the personal attacks right off the bat.
"You guys go ahead, I'm not going anymore," Chen Yan said.
"What do you mean, just because we won't bring this country bumpkin, you won't go either?" Liu Xinxin was dumbfounded.
No one could not go, except for Chen Yan!
Tonight, Sun Yanan had invited a guest named Huang Chuan, hoping to fawn over him. And Huang Chuan was interested in Chen Yan, knowing that she would be there, which was why he had deigned to attend!
Thinking of this, Sun Yanan forcefully suppressed her disgust and waved her hand, "Forget it, bring him along. We can wash the car later, it probably won't leave any strange smells."
"!!!"
Chen Yan's expression changed dramatically.
After being apart for so long, even in their brief interaction, she had a sense of what kind of person Qin Xuan was.
If you smile at him, he will smile back like sunshine.
If you insult him, he'll pay you back in spades!
"Let's go, you guys go first, I'll come over later!" Chen Yan quickly said.
"That makes no sense."
Sun Yanan was completely puzzled, but still nodded and drove away first in her car.
"Are you afraid he'll get beaten up?" Qin Xuan asked.
"Do you think that's honorable?!"
Chen Yan said gloomily, "You just came out of Da Ruzhuang, an impetuous calf not fearing the tiger. You'll understand later that there are some people you absolutely can't afford to offend. If your edge is too sharp, you'll break easily."
"Oh." Qin Xuan was too lazy to argue.
"Let's go, we'll take a taxi over ourselves, stay for a bit, then we'll go somewhere else to eat. For now let's just show up for a moment," Chen Yan said, waving down a taxi.
Qin Xuan had already lost interest in continuing to interact with Chen Yan. He had wanted to refuse, but with his personality, after Liu Yanan had just spewed all that crap, it would feel too stifling to just let it go like that.
A birthday party?
He would make sure she had a great time!
As for Chen Yan, she was a bit self-absorbed, but hadn't gone so far as spewing crap. If one day she dared to utter such vulgar words, Qin Xuan would slap her to high heaven!
...
Jinmei Garden.
It was a high-end hotel.
The parking lot was filled with luxury cars.
Ordinary people couldn't afford to host a lavish banquet here even if they didn't eat or drink for years!
Qin Xuan and Chen Yan had just gotten out of the taxi and saw Sun Yanan and Liu Xinxin at the hotel entrance, chatting and laughing with a group of people.
Among them was a youth in a black shirt with an erect posture. Just standing there, anyone could see at a glance that he was the leader of this circle.
His name was Huang Chuan.
His father was a minor official with some power in the system.
He was the main target of Sun Yanan's fawning tonight.
Rather than Sun Yanan's birthday party, it was more like she had deliberately thrown this party to curry favor and get close to him.
Seeing Chen Yan slowly approaching with a man next to her, Huang Chuan's expression changed slightly. "What's going on, who's that man with Chen Yan?"
"Master Chuan,"
Sun Yanan said in a low voice, "He's Chen Yan's childhood friend who she hasn't seen for ten years. Just now I didn't want that country bumpkin to get in the car because he was too dirty, but Chen Yan actually took a taxi here for his sake..."
Hearing this, Huang Chuan's face turned ashen.
Not understanding the full situation, he immediately associated it with some childhood sweetheart relationship, and instantly felt extreme disgust towards Qin Xuan.
Dressed so crudely, like some loser, what right did he have to walk side by side with Chen Yan?
What right did he have to attend such a high-class birthday party?
When Chen Yan and Qin Xuan drew near,
Huang Chuan exchanged a few pleasantries with Chen Yan, then his tone changed, "Yanyan, you should be very clear what kind of occasion this is tonight. Bringing someone like this will lower the classiness of the whole party."
Chen Yan looked slightly embarrassed, "I'm just bringing him to broaden his horizons, it should be no problem..."
Broaden his horizons?
So she also knew the guy was a country bumpkin, otherwise why would she use that kind of wording?
Huang Chuan suddenly felt much more comfortable, and his hostility lessened somewhat. He took the initiative to smile at Qin Xuan, "Alright, that's certainly no problem. Brother, eat more later, take more pictures, so you'll have something to brag about when you go back."
Birds of a feather flock together.
This bunch of people were probably all condescending, arrogant second generation rich kids.
"I suggest you stop talking before I get angry," Qin Xuan said lightly.
"???"
Huang Chuan was stunned for a moment, not expecting this country bumpkin to have so much attitude. Then he smiled instead of getting angry.
Anyway, Chen Yan didn't like this guy, so Huang Chuan disdained to waste any more words.
Talking too much to this kind of rural trash would dirty his own mouth!
After that, the group entered the hotel.
The manager of Jinmei Garden, upon learning of Huang Chuan's arrival, personally ran out to welcome him with a smile plastered on his face. "Master Chuan, I didn't expect you to come too. Why didn't you let me know in advance so I could arrange things?"
Huang Chuan smiled, "Today is my friend's birthday, I'm not the main character. You're too kind, Manager Bai."
"Not at all, not at all."
Manager Bai fawned, "Since Master Chuan is here, we must arrange the 'Hundred Birds Paying Homage Hall' for you. Also, consumption will be discounted by 30% for your entire party tonight!"
In that moment, Sun Yanan, Liu Xinxin and the others were extremely excited.
Such was the privilege of the powerful!
Wherever they went, they were treated with the utmost courtesy!
Huang Chuan politely thanked them, then intentionally glanced at Qin Xuan several times, his sense of superiority overflowing.
Childhood friend? So what?
Forget not having seen each other for ten years, even if you saw each other every day from childhood, it wouldn't change the fact that you are a lowly person.
The moon near the water tower is not necessarily the first to get the moonlight!
Sensing Huang Chuan's gaze, Qin Xuan narrowed his eyes and said astonishingly, "What are you worried about, showing off your superiority to me so eagerly? Afraid I'll become an obstacle for you?"
Huang Chuan's smile froze on the spot.
Sun Yanan quickly jumped in to admonish angrily, "Can you shut up? Who gave you the right to speak here, you stinking trash from the dregs of society? Can't stand seeing Master Chuan's glory?"
"Hmph."
Qin Xuan disdainfully laughed.
With his skills, if he wanted wealth and social status, it would be a trivial matter. Like hell he needed to be looked down on by these shallow frogs at the bottom of a well.
At this time, Huang Chuan pointed at Qin Xuan and said coldly, "I won't lower myself to deal with you, not because I'm afraid of you, but because I disdain it. To put it bluntly, if I slapped you once, I would feel my hand was dirtied. Watch that filthy mouth of yours!"
After he finished speaking, Huang Chuan strode into the elevator heading straight for the Hundred Birds Paying Homage Hall.
Sun Yanan and the others looked at Qin Xuan with contempt before following Huang Chuan's footsteps.
Chen Yan heaved a long sigh, her eyes clearly showing some dissatisfaction. "Qin Xuan, I hope you can understand some things are destined from birth. Learn to accept your own ordinariness, it's not shameful!"
