Chapter 1 — At My Boyfriend's Birthday Party, Just Because My Dad Said "Carrying Cement", He Ran Away In The Night
At My Boyfriend's Birthday Party, Just Because My Dad Said One Thing "Carrying Cement", He Ran Away In The Night To create an effect for the party, in front of all his friends, I called my dad. On the other end of the phone, my father who loves acting just opened his mouth and said:
"Daughter, where will we get money? Dad is still at the construction site carrying cement!"
Ha Du Chu's face immediately turned black as the bottom of a pot. He threw the high-end custom-made suit that I had painstakingly prepared into the trash, pointed his finger at me and scolded:
"You poor girl still likes to show off! You don't know how to be shameless!"
After that, he immediately turned around and ran towards the rich lady who was also present at the party. I didn't even bother turning my head back. He didn't know... The moment he turned to leave, my phone vibrated slightly. It's a message from dad: 【Daughter, is 20,000,000 yuan enough? If it's not enough, I'll tell your mother to transfer a little more and hit it right in the face! Oh right, today the price of cement has increased again, dad gave me an extra chicken thigh tonight.】 Looking at his struggling and determined back, I quietly dialed a phone call.
"Hello, the Porsche Panamera that Mr. Ha Du Chu has been looking at for three months and still can't bear to buy, the most advanced version, I'll take it."
The other end of the line asked:
"Miss, what is the delivery address for the car?"
I looked towards the hotel door, curled my lips slightly:
"Deliver it to me right in front of De Hao Hotel. The faster the better."
Tonight is Ha Du Chu's birthday party. The location chosen was the most luxurious De Hao hotel in the city, the entire top floor was covered by him. Brilliant crystal chandeliers sparkled, the scent of perfume mixed with laughter and chatter, glasses clinking non-stop. Ha Du Chu wore a high-end tailored suit, holding a glass of wine, leisurely walking among the crowd, enjoying flattery and praise from everyone. Tonight, he is the absolute central character. As for me, Khuong Hoa - his girlfriend who has been with him for three years - right now I am like an outsider, quietly sitting on the sofa in the corner, watching him shine in the crowd.
"Tieu Hoa, why are you sitting here alone? Today is Du Chu's birthday, why don't you go over there with him?"
A girl with elaborate makeup and a glass of wine walked over. That's Ly Tay, Ha Du Chu's childhood friend. She glanced at me up and down, her eyes not hiding her contempt. The dress I'm wearing was bought while walking around town last week, costing less than a thousand yuan. In the middle of a party full of high-end custom-made tuxedos like this, it was truly a bit out of place. I smiled:
"He's busy. I'll come over later."
Ly Tay pouted, sat down next to me, pretending to be friendly and took my arm.
"Oh my, you really understand things too much. But Tieu Hoa, I have to remind you something. Now Du Chu is no longer the same. His company is about to be listed, in the future it will be a real wealthy family."
She stopped for a moment, glancing at me meaningfully.
"As for him, you should also improve yourself. Don't always look like a student like that. Look at Bach Lo Vi today, that's what you call a truly prestigious genius."
Follow her eyes and look over. Not far away, a girl wearing a white mermaid dress happily chatting with Ha Du Chu. That girl has a graceful figure and outstanding temperament. I recognized the watch on her wrist immediately. Patek Philippe limited edition. The starting price must also be seven figures. She is Bach Lo Vi, the golden daughter of the Bach family in the west of the city. I withdrew my gaze, raised the glass of juice on the table and took a sip, without saying anything. Seeing that I didn't react, Ly Tay seemed impatient.
"Tieu Hoa, I'm just saying that because I want it to be good for you. You two have been in love for three years, everyone can see it. But love cannot be eaten."
She looked at me and continued:
"Look at yourself. Today is such an important occasion, what gift have you prepared for Du Chu?"
I picked up the delicate gift box placed next to me.
"It's ready."
Ly Tay immediately grabbed it and couldn't wait to open it. Inside is a custom-made Armani suit. Solid dark gray color. The collar and cuffs are embroidered with silver thread three initials of Ha Du Chu's name - HYZ.
"Is that all?"
Ly Tay's volume immediately skyrocketed, attracting the attention of many people around.
"Armani? Is it a regular custom product?"
"Khuong Hoa, do you have any misunderstandings about Du Chu's birthday? Are all the clothes he wears now handmade from the Zegna factory?"
She felt like she had burned her hand with something, and filled with hate, she pushed the gift box back in front of me.
"Do you know what Lo Vi gave?"
"Vacheron Constantin's Patrimony line!"
"This outfit of yours can't even buy someone else's watch face!"
Suddenly, several uncontrollable laughter rang out around. My face turned a little pale. Not out of shame. But because it feels so funny. I personally flew to Milan for this suit, invited Armani's head tailor to measure and make it specifically for Ha Du Chu. It took three months to complete. The value is not low. Every needle and thread contains my thoughts. But in their eyes, just because the brand is not "classy" enough, everything immediately becomes not worth a penny. At that moment, Ha Du Chu also seemed to notice the movement here. He took the glass of wine and walked over.
"What's so exciting?"
Ly Tay immediately stepped forward and recounted the entire "suit incident".
