Chapter 235 The Real World: Gathering 2
"Brother Fu, you've finally arrived. Oh my, this must be your wife, she's so beautiful. Come in, have a seat and let's chat..."
The speaker was Xu Ze, an outgoing man who had always been the go-between in Fu Cinian's inner circle.
Fu Cinian entered, and the unrelated people in the private room tactfully withdrew after Tan Mingzheng waved to them.
To avoid an awkward silence, Fu Cinian began the introductions: "Let me introduce you first. This is Su Jinyue, my wife."
Then, Fu Cinian introduced all the people present to Su Jinyue one by one.
Fu Cinian had given a brief introduction on the way here, and Su Jinyue was now just matching the name with the person.
The private room was quite large, with a rectangular structure. To the right of the entrance was a row of sofas against the wall, the same width as the wall. Judging by the length of the sofas, they could easily seat more than a dozen people.
To the left of the entrance is a small stage, with a huge LCD screen hanging on the wall. The screen is lit up now, but there is no sound.
Besides Fu Cinian and Su Jinyue, there were only 5 people in the private room.
Sitting on the single sofa closest to the door was Xu Ze, who had just stood up to speak to Fu Cinian.
Sitting in the center of the sofa was the unruly Tan Mingzheng, the second son of the family. He was always irresponsible, had a rich private life, and had a constant stream of girlfriends. As long as he didn't cause any deaths, the Tan family wouldn't care about him.
Sitting to Tan Mingzheng's right were a brother and sister, Gu Yankai and Gu Zhiyi.
Sitting on the single sofa furthest from the door of the private room was Shen Yunzhou, a politician.
Fu Cinian had already spoken to Su Jinyue about all the men beforehand, the only one he hadn't mentioned was Gu Yankai's sister, Gu Zhiyi.
Su Jinyue was no stranger to Gu Zhiyi; she liked Fu Cinian!
Before her rebirth, Su Jinyue was with Fu Cinian for seven years. Because of their sugar daddy relationship, Su Jinyue always felt inferior. She could only endure Gu Zhiyi's provocations and humiliations.
But things are different now. She is now Fu Cinian's rightful wife, and if Gu Zhiyi deliberately provokes and bullies her again, she has a reason to fight back.
While Su Jinyue was pondering, she didn't delay in politely greeting the people present.
After that, Su Jinyue followed Fu Cinian and sat down on the sofa to Tan Mingzheng's left.
"Old Fu, you're the first among us to get married, but your wife doesn't look that old. You're not trying to seduce a young girl, are you?"
The one who spoke was Tan Mingzheng, who was also the most reckless of them all.
Faced with Tan Mingzheng's questioning, Fu Cinian remained calm: "My wife is not old, but now that we are married, she is your sister-in-law. You should show her respect when you see her elsewhere!"
"Damn it, you beast!" Tan Ming shouted indignantly at Fu Cinian's shameless words. Then, remembering that this was his first time meeting Su Jinyue, he immediately became serious and gave Su Jinyue a fawning smile.
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law, you must be embarrassed. It's our first meeting, so I don't have much to offer. This club is mine."
I have a membership card here, sister-in-law can take it and play. As long as it's on my turf, I absolutely guarantee your safety and that you'll have a great time..."
The black membership card that Tan Mingzheng handed over, gleaming gold under the lights, was clearly not an ordinary membership card.
Su Jinyue looked up at Fu Cinian, unsure whether she should answer the call.
Fu Cinian didn't stand on ceremony at all. He took Tan Mingzheng's card directly and handed it to Su Jinyue.
“Tan Mingzheng gave it to you, so just take it. It’s not worth much to him.”
This membership card is worthless to Tan Mingzheng, but outside, it would probably be worth a fortune!
"Old Fu! How can you do this? I gave my sister-in-law something, and you still want to cricket at me?..."
Fu Cinian ignored Tan Mingzheng's dissatisfaction.
The people nearby, who were probably used to this kind of situation, watched the spectacle with amusement and did not step forward to stop them.
After a while of laughing and joking, Shen Yunzhou, who was standing next to him, also spoke up.
"Ci Nian, the news of your marriage was too sudden. If I hadn't heard it from Xu Ze, I wouldn't have believed it."
Does your aunt know about this? Does she allow you to do this?
"Marriage is such a big deal, and you two made such a hasty decision. I didn't even dare tell my dad."
“Cousin, this matter is a bit complicated. I’ll explain it to you later. But no matter what the cause and effect are, the result is that Jin Yue and I are already married, and that is an unchangeable fact.”
After listening to Fu Cinian's explanation, Shen Yunzhou knew that he was serious, and that was enough.
"Sister-in-law, this is a gift for you. I only heard the news recently, so the preparation was rather rushed. Please don't mind."
Su Jinyue was flattered and accepted the small box handed to her by Shen Yunzhou. She opened it and saw that it contained a diamond brooch, which she estimated to be worth at least six figures.
Su Jinyue didn't have much contact with Shen Yunzhou before her rebirth. All she knew was that Shen Yunzhou was the son of Fu Cinian's maternal uncle.
Shen Yunzhou is a politician and currently works in a government agency. Due to the nature of his work, he usually keeps a low profile.
"Thank you, Cousin Shen."
Su Jinyue originally wanted to call him Young Master Shen, but considering the intimate tone in Shen Yunzhou's words, she felt that such a form of address was inappropriate, so she decided to follow Fu Cinian's example and call him Cousin.
Xu Ze and Gu Yankai also gave Su Jinyue exquisite gifts. They weren't too expensive, but they weren't cheap either. Su Jinyue thanked them politely one by one.
Seeing that several men had given Su Jinyue expensive gifts, Gu Zhiyi felt somewhat uncomfortable.
As soon as Su Jinyue appeared, Gu Zhiyi knew that she was not from any famous family in Kyoto. After all, she knew a little about the young ladies in Kyoto's business circles, and there was no such person as Su Jinyue.
Gu Zhiyi guessed that Su Jinyue was not from a noble family. Judging from her simple and low-key marriage to Fu Cinian, she knew that she had no status and was not valued by the Fu family.
But since Su Jinyue's status is so low, why is Fu Cinian still treating her so well?
Gu Zhiyi knew very well that the club membership card Tan Mingzheng gave her was the highest-level membership card at the club!
Those who hold this card can receive the highest level of treatment at the club without having to pay any fees.
Judging from Su Jinyue's blank and ignorant look, she probably didn't realize the value of this membership card at all.
There's also Shen Yunzhou, who is Fu Cinian's cousin. The gifts he gave are probably quite valuable.
This Su Jinyue is truly hateful; she garnered so much attention the moment she appeared.
Moreover, she stole the position of Mrs. Fu that should have been hers!
