Chapter 898
She was feeling downright inferior .
Jiang Li cared a lot about her reputation, too . Seeing Huang Lili’s smugness and thinking of her own man, she really expected better from her husband .
What made women feel the most inferior was when others led glorious lives while they became old and haggard .
The desserts began to be served amid the crowd’s chatter and laughter about their struggles after graduation .
The women were jealous of Huang Lili’s Cinderella story, whereas the men found it a great pity .
In contrast, Yun Shishi appeared to be indifferent to her fancy ostentation .
Perhaps slightly feeling tipsy after drinking some whisky, she lifted her hair aside . Xiao Xue could not help noticing the brilliant sparkle on her ear .
“Ah! Shishi, your ear studs are so pretty!”
This caught Huang Lili’s attention as she looked at her ear, too .
“It’s only a normal pair of ear studs . ”
Although she often visited luxury brand counters, it did not mean that she knew how to differentiate between real and imitation .
The same applied to everyone .
Her friend looked closely and then exclaimed, “It’s Tiffany’s ‘Starry Sky’ . The counter is retailing it at nine hundred ninety thousand a pair! Shishi, these ear studs really suit you . You look good wearing them!”
The crowd looked at her .
Someone gasped . “A pair for nine hundred ninety thousand! So expensive? How can that be?”
Xiao Xue said with displeasure, “There’s a Tiffany counter at my family’s shopping mall and I often shop there . How can I be wrong?”
Huang Lili was startled as she looked at Yun Shishi in disbelief, feeling that she had somehow lost to her .
The three-carat diamond ring on her hand was merely seven hundred thousand .
It was the most expensive gift Du Jiayan had ever given her!
A pair of ear studs, worth nine hundred ninety thousand, was simply too extravagant!
On second thought, she jeered in disdain . “I bet that it’s a high-quality imitation! How can it be real? Shishi, it’s not that I want to pick on you, but must you buy fake jewelry to make yourself look good? Just because you wear a nine-hundred-ninety-thousand perfect imitation doesn’t mean that you can be ostentatious!”
Xiao Xue mocked, “High-quality imitation? How is that an imitation? I believe that it’s the real deal as I particularly like this design and am even planning to buy it!”
Her family had a stake in departmental stores, and many luxurious brand counters were in those .
Since she said that it was true, it must be true .
Huang Lili’s face blanched as the other continued to humiliate her . “Do you think that Shishi is like you? Back in college, you specially bought class A fake goods to pretend rich . Those Louis Vuitton and GUCCI bags were so fake only you would treat them as treasures! Hah!”
The other’s merciless lambasting made her flush, as if having eaten a fly . “Don’t talk nonsense . When did I buy fake designer bags; those were real!”
“You may have forgotten, but I haven’t . Don’t think that you can become a socialite just by carrying fake designer bags; how embarrassing!” Xiao Xue spat .
She was completely humiliated, yet she still wanted to put up a front . “Since it’s real, I doubt Shishi can afford to buy a pair of earrings worth that much! How can it be the real goods? Can she purchase such? I bet they’re imitation . Since you are friends with her, of course you’ll speak up for her!”
The smell of gunpowder spread again .
The rest of the people sat stiffly in their seats; be their postures or expressions, they were all stiff and extremely uneasy, probably unused to such situations .
It was too awkward .
The crowd looked back and forth between Yun Shishi and Huang Lili; it was self-evident .
