What does it feel like to wear millions on yourself? This is the feeling — it gives Ling Zhenfei a sense of flaunting.

Although dressed magnificently, her looks aren't quite up to par with the audience; the powder on her face is applied so thickly.

Li Ru can be considered exceptionally beautiful, with top-notch figure, appearance, and aura, but compared to Li Ru, this woman only has aura.

She certainly has money; hosting an event like this would be impossible without it.

Ling Zhenfei asked Li Ru, "Do you mean she's found a new boyfriend?"

Li Ru's expression wasn't great, she just nodded.

Ling Zhenfei understood in his heart; when a man has money, there are plenty of women to choose from; when a woman has money, regardless of her looks, men will pursue her.

Perhaps noticing Ling Zhenfei and Li Ru looking at her, or for some other reason, the woman walked toward Ling Zhenfei and Li Ru.

This woman couldn't be called fat, but everyone has seen what forty-year-old women look like, especially after gaining weight.

The woman walked up to Li Ru, and Li Ru hurriedly greeted her, "Sister Liu looks so beautiful today."

Sister Liu smiled at Li Ru and then looked at Ling Zhenfei beside her, saying, "Is he the one you brought?"

Li Ru replied, "Yes, they told me today's event was a party, so they asked me to definitely bring a dance partner."

Sister Liu looked Ling Zhenfei up and down, saying, "A fresh young face is a fresh young face, but I wonder how capable he is."

Li Ru quickly said, "Sister Liu, don't misunderstand, he's my brother, just here to be my dance partner."

Sister Liu laughed heartily and said, "Brother, certainly a brother, unless he isn't a brother but your elder brother. But I'd advise you not to learn from others keeping pretty boys; your modest assets can't afford such luxury."

After listening, Li Ru's face changed as if she wanted to get angry, but at this moment Sister Liu turned to leave, took two steps, stopped again, and turned back to Li Ru, saying, "Li Ru, why do you always lose to me?"

After that, Sister Liu walked away, clearly very pleased with herself.

But Li Ru was furious, her face turned somewhat red. Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, sister, don't be angry. That woman is ugly and her words are irritating."

Li Ru said nothing but her face was still visibly upset. After a moment, she said, "I've known her for many years. When I started my business, she was already very wealthy.

Back then, she looked down on me a bit, but after my hard work, I've done quite well myself. She probably feels embarrassed, so she tries to find opportunities to regain some face in front of me."

Ling Zhenfei said, "This only shows she's becoming increasingly insecure, seeking inner satisfaction through such means."

Li Ru said, "I know she set up this event targeting me, so I called you; otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to come."

The two were chatting when suddenly someone shouted, "Everyone, pause for a moment to listen to me."

Everyone looked toward the person shouting, and that woman seemed like the host of the party. Seeing everyone looking at her, she said, "Today's event was orchestrated by Sister Liu.

We thank Sister Liu, and now let's have Sister Liu say a few words, everyone welcome her."

Amidst applause, Sister Liu walked over to the host's side, then smiled coquettishly to everyone and said, "I'm really delighted that everyone could come here today to attend this party.

The reason for arranging this event today is firstly to thank everyone for their support over the years, and another very important reason is to take the opportunity to announce something."

At this point, Sister Liu deliberately paused before saying, "Actually, today I want to introduce someone to everyone and announce that I'm soon going to get married again."

Everyone applauded enthusiastically, resembling sycophantic flattery, and then someone shouted, "Where is he? Aren't you going to bring him out for everyone to see?"

Sister Liu said, "Please wait a moment, my husband is a bit shy now; I'll bring him out shortly."

After saying this, Sister Liu walked toward one of the doors, everyone held their breath and looked in the direction of the door.

This time Ling Zhenfei suddenly felt that Li Ru beside him was a bit not right, as if she was trembling, he looked at Li Ru and saw her face looking very pale.

Ling Zhenfei was shocked, even if she didn't get along well with Sister Liu, it shouldn't have come to this.

Then they saw Sister Liu coming out from the doorway and beside her was a man, this man looked to be around forty years old, in a black suit that gave off an impression of success.

His appearance was not bad; although he was nearly forty, one could tell he was a handsome guy when young.

Everyone gasped in realization, and some people's eyes turned directly toward Li Ru.

Ling Zhenfei was startled, not knowing why they looked at Li Ru, but he faintly felt something.

Looking again at Li Ru, her eyes seemed to be ablaze, fists clenched, and her body slightly trembling.

Just then they heard Sister Liu addressing everyone, "Yes, you aren't mistaken, this is my husband. I think nearly everyone here knows him, the famous Jade-faced Little White Dragon, Shen Feng.

He was a dashing young man once, causing many to lose sleep over him, isn't that right, Li Ru?"

With Sister Liu's words, all eyes turned to Li Ru, but at this moment she pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I was wondering who Sister Liu found to make her so happy. Turns out it's him; aged, not the same as back in the day."

Sister Liu laughed and said, "Li Ru, stop with the sour remarks. Who doesn't know about your and Shen Feng's story? In the end, wasn't it Shen Feng who dumped you?"

This is when Ling Zhenfei finally understood, no wonder Li Ru has always been single, and whenever this topic comes up, her words are always evasive.

Now Ling Zhenfei finally understood, Li Ru's previous man was this Shen Feng.

Although he didn't know this man before, now knowing he went with Sister Liu for money shows this man wasn't great.

Moreover, Sister Liu now is publicly humiliating Li Ru, yet this man appears as a spectator, not showing any shame.

Li Ru isn't easily bullied either; being trampled by Sister Liu, she wouldn't just put up with it. Li Ru said, "Who dumped whom isn't certain."

Sister Liu laughed heartily, saying, "I only know that since Shen Feng dumped you, you still haven't found a boyfriend. Why, are you still hoping Shen Feng will come back to you one day?"

Li Ru said, "Such a second-hand man, perhaps only you would want him."
