Lin Shulan had a flash of inspiration, she opened her mouth and said: "Ji Mao of the Ji family invited us to the art gallery. He invited all the famous people in the world of painting to exhibit twenty works, they are extremely rare."
"So?"
Xia Yu's expression did not change at all. She looked at Lin Shulan with clear eyes.
In her previous life, Xia Yu had already been arranged to go to the Xia family for a blind date. The two of them met once, and almost got a marriage contract set up by the elders, but that Ji Wu looked down on her as an adopted daughter, and didn't know whether or not she was the real Xia family's daughter, so she mocked and ridiculed her.
Almost all the families knew that she, Xia Yu, was being ignored. Furthermore, the rumors were getting more rumors, saying that she was an extremely ugly person, with flaws.
Xia Yu took a deep breath, and when he thought about it, he secretly clenched his fists. He hoped that he wouldn't have any interaction with him in this life.
"So when we went to the art exhibition, those ladies were all wearing fashionable clothes, and they were all designed by foreign designers … I don't think we can afford to lose face, so you see … " Lin Shulan said. Xia Yu did not have much chance to attend such a gathering, if he could bring her along, she would definitely be willing to pay.
"Oh."
Xia Yu's expression was cold, she wanted to think about it, "However, I've been really busy these few days, not only with the school's decorations, but also with the job of promoting them, I'm afraid I don't have the time to attend the art exhibition." She smiled slightly, "Then Aunt Lin, please ask them for me. I'll head upstairs first."
She rejected it softly.
Lin Shulan looked at Xia Yu's figure that was turning around and leaving. Her eyes were filled with disbelief, as if she had seen a ghost.
"Oh my god... Is she still Xia Yu? Why did it seem like a completely different person? "
"Mom!" Xia Qianxue anxiously asked at this time. Since Xia Yu had rejected them just now, what should they do? They hadn't even gotten the money yet, and they even made her apologize in vain. Thinking of the apology just now, she felt that she had suffered a huge loss. She felt extremely disgusted.
"..."
Xia Yu did not expect such a huge change, but she could not let this go. She frowned. "Ask Ji Mei to call her personally and see if she can still refuse!" Lin Shulan said forcibly.
Xia Qianxue was resentful in her heart, she had spent a lot of effort on this matter with Lin Shulan.
Lin Shulan saw that Xia Qianxue was not in a good mood, and quickly advised: "Wait until she participates in this exhibition, then the one who will make a fool of herself will be her. It also shows that you are knowledgeable, and it also shows your temperament. " Xia Qianxue nodded. Although the two of them were older than the Xia Clan, Xia Yu was different. She did not receive a good education, could not speak foreign languages, and did not graduate from some national university. This was precisely the point of Xia Yu's inferiority complex.
In the past, every time Xia Yu participated in a party, she would always stand at the side while trembling in fear, afraid that someone would tease her. Furthermore, those people would only open their mouth to show off their skills and show off their family.
Xia Yu returned to her room and closed the door. She took a deep breath.
In her previous life, she had participated in some so-called art exhibition. Most of the foreign painters were speaking French and introducing themselves continuously. In the end, without knowing why, all the attention was shifted to her, and he asked her what her thoughts were on this matter. Xia Yu's face was forced to turn red, but at this time, Xia Qianxue stood out and spoke as if she was helping her: "Everyone, don't force elder sister, elder sister does not understand this."
From then on, Xia Yu was branded as vulgar and ignorant.
She did not understand those paintings correctly, nor did she understand the eight foreign languages. She could not communicate with the rich ladies either. She was used to idle, and whenever she wanted to do something she liked, a group of people would come to watch and point at her.
Weng … Her cell phone rang.
Xia Yu took out her cell phone to look at it. What she saw was the number that was politely stored inside, Ji Mei was her envious little sister.
It seemed that Lin Shulan did not invite her, and directly found the person involved to invite her. Xia Yu sneered, and still accepted the call.
"Hello."
"I just heard that you politely declined to attend the exhibition. This is a very good opportunity, and we haven't seen each other for a long time, right …"
"Excuse me, may I ask who you are?" Xia Yu asked with the same calm tone.
The voice on the other end of the line stiffened, "I … I am Ji Mei. "
"Ji Mei..." Xia Yu's tone was slow and pretended to think, only then did he come back to his senses, and said: "So it's you, my apologies, there are too many numbers on my phone, I can't really differentiate them, do you mind?"
"It doesn't matter..."
"I've been really busy recently with the art exhibition …" Before Xia Yu could finish speaking, Ji Mei who was on the other side of the phone had an impatient look. Furthermore, she thought that Xia Yu was not talking about her status, so her tone became haughty as well. Could it be that those things of yours are more important than the art exhibition? "
"Yes."
"You …" Ji Mei was a little speechless. Originally, she thought that just because she said that, Xia Yu would be able to say some good words to attend the exhibition. She never expected that she would refute her words to such an extent. "Alright, then I'll leave your invitation aside this time."
This invitation letter was something that none of those people could get their hands on. She did not know how to appreciate Xia Yu not participating!
"Then, goodbye." Xia Yu said calmly in the end and hung up the phone. From start to finish, she did not waver at all. In this life, she had already decided not to look at others' faces anymore. Even if she did her best to curry favor with these people and integrate into the group, they wouldn't even look at her once.
After Xia Yu hung up the phone, she cleaned up most of the calls, there were some numbers that she would never be able to use in her entire life, what use would it be if she got a number, those people did not even put her in their eyes. It was only after she had cleaned up that she felt more comfortable.
"... "Well, I want to reserve that apartment."
"Yes, in a week."
Xia Yu called the real estate agent as well. She had reserved an apartment and was prepared to move out as soon as possible in this life. Even if she asked him to move out now, no one would object.
She lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling.
"In this life … I want nothing but to get away from those people. " Xia Yu frowned, and slowly pinched the sheets.
… ….
A few days later.
A beautiful woman stepped off the plane. She wore a dress that revealed her perfect legs and a straw hat. She looked elegant and lively.
"Gong Qin!" It was as if she had seen a person. She walked over and hugged that slender figure, kissing him on the cheek. After that, she looked at him seriously. Grow taller, you're taller again. How long have we not seen each other? "
Gong Qin frowned slightly, but did not say anything. Looking at the person in front of him, he left her imprisonment without leaving a trace.
"Let's go."
"We haven't seen each other in the past three years, but you're still as cold as ever!"
"Ming Ruowei..."
