319 Three Noble Women Drinking

Xu Ni called Su Ji after she got home and asked how her wrist was.

Su Ji said that it was nothing. She found a watch and two bracelets and put them on her injured wrist.

Her other wrist was wearing a jade bracelet, and now both hands were filled with jewelry.

Su Ji hung up as Xu Mingzhi was bringing her hot milk.

Xu Mingzhi saw the watch on her wrist. “Isn’t this the one that mom gave you? I thought you didn’t want to wear it.”

Su Ji put down her hand, and her sleeve covered her wound. She didn’t really like to drink milk, but she drank the whole glass today.

Xu Mingzhi kissed her forehead, “go to sleep, baby.”

After Xu Mingzhi left, Su Ji lay on the bed and played with her phone.

She checked her WeChat and saw that there were no new messages from Pei Huai.

Su Ji felt like there was something bothering Pei Huai recently, and when he smiled, there was a faint sadness between his brows.

When did it start?

It seemed to have started when he said that his parents were coming back.

Su Ji thought that he was just too much of a perfectionist.

However, she didn’t know that he wasn’t trying to be perfect. He was just afraid that this would cause a negative implication on him.

Su Ji was wondering what the reason was, but she didn’t know how to ask.

After thinking for a long time, she sent a grinning emoji.

She thought that even if Pei Huai didn’t reply to her, he might be influenced by her positive energy.

Before she could turn off her phone, he replied.

[ “You’re still smiling? Send me a picture of your wrist.” ]

Su Ji pressed her temple. She really shouldn’t have sent this message.

After chatting with Pei Huai for a while, she browsed through the entertainment news for a while.

Some time ago, Zhou Xuefang’s incident had caused a great deal of commotion. After that, the entertainment industry had obviously quieted down. Everyone was tucking their tails between their legs, afraid of getting into trouble.

The most searched topics today were photos of New Year Eve’s dinner from celebrities or links to the coats worn by them at the Spring Festival Gala.

However, one of the trending searches was different from the others.

It wasin the third or fourth place on the trending list.

#Jixi appears at the bar on New Year’s Eve #

Su Ji opened the news and saw that there was a series of photos taken secretly.

In the photo, she still had light makeup on. She came out of the back door of the bar, and the corners of her eyes were red. She seemed to have drunk a little, and it was obvious that her alcohol tolerance was average. On the street, she wrapped her coat tightly around her. It looked like a photo from an autobiography.

Ji Xi had always been the image of a pure girl who neither smoked nor drank, so this piece of news caused quite a stir.

Although she was neither drunk nor did she lose her composure in the photo, the fact that there were no bodyguards with her and that she went to the bar alone made her look very lonely.

At first, she was covering her face with a scarf, so the netizens couldn’t recognize her. But later, when she left the bar, she met a drunk man who tried to drag her into a car. It was a paparazzi who rushed to her rescue…

All the netizens expressed their confusion.

[ “That’s Ji Xi!” ]

[ “Why would she go to a bar alone on New Year’s Eve?” ]

Su Ji thought of what Xu Mingzhi said.

On the second day of the new year, Du Meilan had an appointment with Xu Mingzhi and Wen Man.

She said that she had seen Wen Man in the video last time and wanted to see her in person this time.

Wen Man was honored. She told her that she knew of a very good restaurant and said that she had been there with Xu Mingzhi.

“Then let’s meet at that restaurant,” Du Meilan said.

At 11 pm, the three ladies gathered at Wild Lily.

The receptionist watched the three of them enter a private room and sighed.

As expected, attractive people only hang out with other attractive people!

After they sat down, their branded bags were placed neatly to the side. Among them, Xu Mingzhi’s was pure black, which had a gender-neutral business style.

Du Meilan sized Wen Man up. “You look like a sweet and gentle person. No wonder Mingzhi likes you so much.”

Wen Man laughed. “I’m so envious of Mingzhi for having such a good in-law like you. My son still doesn’t have a partner. The scandal that was spread two days ago was fake. The younger one has just started kindergarten, so there’s no need to mention it.”

The three of them chuckled before Xu Mingzhi ordered a few of their signature dishes.

After that, she asked Du Meilan to add something else. Du Meilan smiled at the waiter and said, “a bottle of champagne.”

?

Xu Mingzhi said, “didn’t we just drink the day before yesterday?”

Du Meilan smiled, “that’s two days ago. I’m happy to see Wen Man. A little drink is good for my mood. I won’t drink too much today.”

Wen Man seemed to be very interested too. “That’s great! I’ve never had a drink with Meilan before!”

Xu Mingzhi squinted at the two women in front of her. Wen Man was not usually fond of drinking…

When the champagne was served, the three of them each poured a glass.

...

After the first toast, Wen Man could no longer hide the truth. She said, “I was feeling depressed at home today, and you asked me out coincidentally. Or maybe the three of us have a telepathic connection.”

When Xu Mingzhi called her today, Si Ke was still coaxing her. He was so anxious that he was pacing around in circles.

The cause was Si Ke’s carelessness. Yesterday, during the reunion dinner, she asked Si Ke to help her adjust the length of her necklace. However, he was too strong and broke it. At that time, she wasn’t angry, so she asked Si Ke to help her pack it and prepare to send it for repair today. However, when she thought about it today, she couldn’t find it in his pocket. She guessed that he had drunk too much yesterday and dropped it somewhere.

That was the necklace that Si Ke had given her when they got married. It was her favorite.

Xu Mingzhi knew that there must be something wrong with her sudden urge to drink today. Seeing that she told them, she also chimed in, “actually, I was also angry yesterday.”

Du Meilan’s gaze shifted from Wen Man to her.

“I only found out yesterday that the neighbor who has been living next door is my ex-husband! If I knew that he lived there, I definitely wouldn’t buy this house. The fact that he’s my neighbor is worse than living in a haunted house!”

After that, she raised her head and drank the glass of champagne in her hand.

Du Meilan smiled gently.

Wen Man was filled with righteous indignation, “scumbags!”

Xu Mingzhi replied, “Si Ke doesn’t count. He’s a careless person. Don’t let him touch your things next time.”

...

Wen Man said, “we’re both pretty miserable anyway, unlike Meilan,” she smiled at her as she said that. “I saw your husband in the video on New Year’s Eve. He’s so handsome. No wonder he could give birth to such a good-looking son.”

“Actually, I’m quite miserable too.”

“?”

“I won’t hide it from you. I’m actually in the middle of a divorce with Shizhan.”
