In the exquisite lunch box was were soup dumplings that emitted a fresh fragrance. Bai Yi felt her stomach beating like a drum. She was already full from anger from talking to Lu Qi in the morning, but now, she was hungry. Bai Yi sat down and ate with Cui Yu.

“How was your wedding night yesterday?” Cui Yu gossiped.

“Nothing happened. We slept in separate rooms. He even gave me his salary card this morning.”

At the mention of Lu Qi, Bai Yi was a little angry. The salary card had humiliated her. It was not like she did not have money.

Bai Yi opened her phone and saw the message Lu Qi had sent her. Her anger subsided a little.

“But he already gave you his salary card. He must want to live a good life with you. How many men dare to give their money to their wives?”

Cui Yu shook her head. In the concept of this romantic rich second-generation heir, if a man gave his entire fortune to a woman, he would definitely love her deeply.

“Sigh, when will I meet a man who is willing to give me everything?” Cui Yu said as she ate.

“Then listen to Auntie. Hurry up and go on a blind date. You might meet someone,” Bai Yi said.

“Come on. Those people my mother found for me are either silkpants who only know how to spend money for pleasure or phoenix men. I can’t sense love from them. I can only sense the coppery stench of them wanting to do business with our family.”

Cui Yu’s family was not a large family that dominated Hai City, but their family had come at a good time during demolition. A few of their original courtyards had become buildings. They had made a lot of money, and the few businesses they had invested in were also very profitable.

Cui Yu thought of something and suddenly said, “But speaking of which, do you have time to go to a cocktail party with me tonight?”

“Cocktail party?”

“It’s a birthday cocktail party for a famous person in Hai City. You know that my mother likes me to go to such occasions. She said that I can get to know people and might even meet someone I like.”

Bai Yi had accompanied Cui Yu to such occasions once or twice before, but it was only to freeload.

“Ah, it’s this kind of occasion again.” Bai Yi shook her head.

“You should accompany me again this time. Actually, I wanted to reject it this time, but my cousin asked me to go. I couldn’t bare to reject her. My cousin’s business is very big now. I still want to work with her in the future.”

Cui Yu’s cousin was not an unambitious rich second-generation heir like Cui Yu. She was a rich second-generation heir who loved to work hard. She had the ability and looks. With these, she had married into a wealthy family in Hai City. Now that the couple was working hard together, their assets had increased several times.

Cui Yu’s mother did not know this cousin well, but she always felt that her daughter could also enjoy life by marrying into a rich family with her face, so she urged Cui Yu to find a rich man to marry every day.

“I don’t want to climb up the social ladder. I want to find a handsome man to live my life with me.” Cui Yu complained as she begged, “For the sake of the crab powder soup dumplings, accompany me, so when the time comes, I can easily find an excuse to leave.”

Looking at her best friend, Bai Yi nodded.

It was just attending a cocktail party. It was not a big deal. When the time came, she just had to follow Cui Yu and eat and drink. It wasn’t like she would be pushed out for a blind date.

After arranging the classes in the dance studio, Cui Yu brought Bai Yi to her house.

Mother Cui had already prepared clothes for Cui Yu and Bai Yi.

Cui Yu and Bai Yi had a good relationship. Bai Yi had a quiet and gentle personality and did not like to steal the limelight. Furthermore, she was already taken.

Hence, Mother Cui did not have to worry about Bai Yi. She also hoped that Bai Yi could keep an eye on Cui Yu and not let her cause trouble.

Mother Cui had chosen a light blue silk dress for Cui Yu. It was very eye-catching and she had chosen a relatively low-key black dress for Bai Yi.

Bai Yi looked at the price of the dress and rejected it. She only asked Cui Yu to find her some casual clothes to wear.

Cui Yu found a slightly more formal shirt for Bai Yi. Bai Yi was wearing a shirt and jeans. She put on some simple makeup and tied her hair into a bun behind her head before leaving with Cui Yu.

Bai Yi had exquisite eyebrows and a good figure. Without the high-end clothes and accessories, she looked even more beautiful and moving, not inferior to those socialites who were dressed up.

“Little Bai is here too.”

The moment they entered the banquet venue, Cui Yu’s cousin welcomed them.
