Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 616 Real and Fake Gold (69)

On the day of the coming-of-age ceremony, Wu Qianxiu invited the most expensive styling team in the city to help Jiang Qiuyao and Jiang Suen with their styling.

Jiang Qiuyao changed into an expensive haute couture dress and sat on the sofa in the living room, letting the makeup artist sweep the brush across her face.

Jiang Suen had changed into her dress and was coming down from upstairs. Jiang Qiuyao heard the noise and asked with his eyes closed, "How is it? Did Secretary Song reply to you?"

Jiang Suen walked over to Jiang Qiuyao and sat down. She glanced at the people in the room and then whispered, "...No."

Jiang Qiuyao was not surprised. Song Yuxian was already preparing to run away, so it was naturally impossible for him to show up again.

No matter how much Jiang Suen hated Song Yuxian, she still had a little hope at her 18th-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, and wanted Song Yuxian to witness this moment.

It means wanting to show off, but also longing to be blessed.

But I didn’t expect that Song Yuxian didn’t even reply to the message.

Being ignored by my own mother like this, it would be a lie to say that I don’t care.

Jiang Suen was in a low mood. She lowered her head and turned on her mobile phone screen from time to time.

Although today is not Kang So-eun's birthday, Song Yuxian still feels heartbroken because she has no news from her.

Jiang Suen even began to doubt whether she was Song Yuxian's biological daughter. How could there be such a mother in the world?

Jiang Qiuyao opened his eyes and glanced at Jiang Suen.

"You don't need to look. She probably won't come."

Jiang Suen was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

Even if she wanted to avoid suspicion, she had at least been Jiang Hui's secretary for so many years. With so many people attending, her presence wouldn't attract much attention.

Even so, Song Yuxian won't come.

"Secretary Song is busy with household chores right now," Jiang Qiuyao said, "her brother and sister-in-law are here."

"...What?" Jiang Suen couldn't believe what she heard. "Who? My brother and sister-in-law?"

Secretary Song's brother and sister-in-law, aren't they her uncle and aunt?!

Jiang Suen was confused from her expression to her mind: "Secretary Song's brother and sister-in-law are here? Where are they coming? Here? When did they come?"

She immediately became nervous: "Will they come to the party tonight?"

Jiang Qiuyao admired Jiang Suen's nervous expression with interest. She smiled and said, "Of course I went to find Secretary Song."

"How did they know to come here?"

She didn't expect to hear news about her uncle and aunt now.

When talking about her uncle and aunt, Jiang Suen's face showed an expression of panic and disgust.

She hated that hypocritical and greedy couple.

When I think of them, I think of the dark and humble self in the past.

She was really going to die. If her uncle and aunt showed up at the party tonight, she would be really finished.

Jiang Suen immediately leaned over and grabbed Jiang Qiuyao's hand: "Sister, they shouldn't come to the party tonight, right?"

Jiang Qiuyao raised his eyebrows: "Why are you so nervous? Don't worry, they don't have time to care about you now."

Jiang Suen watched Jiang Qiuyao pull his hand away from hers, stand up and be led to get his hair done. Jiang Suen was a little at a loss for a moment.

"Ms. Suen, let me put on your makeup."

Jiang Suen nodded, but her thoughts were very complicated and confused.

Even after getting in the car, Jiang Suen still looked like she was full of worries.

...

In order to hold her daughter's coming-of-age ceremony successfully, Wu Qianxiu carefully selected and finally decided to hold it in the VIP banquet hall of a century-old hotel in the city center.

Although it is an old hotel, the decoration is not old-fashioned. Instead, it exudes a restrained and simple elegance.

The dresses worn by Kang So-eun and Kang Choo-yao were also chosen by the styling team based on the layout of the venue, one white satin and one red velvet.

The waiter first led the two to the lounge next to the banquet hall, where Wu Qianxiu was also.

"Qiuqiu, you guys take a rest here first." Wu Qianxiu was about to go out and receive the guests with Jiang Hui.

Although her marriage with Jiang Hui has come to an end, today is her daughter's big day, so she has to cheer up and get through tonight.

After Wu Qianxiu left, Jiang Qiuyao looked at Jiang Suen and said, "Suen, relax. Tonight is a special day."

Jiang Suen remained silent.

Of course, it is a special day for Jiang Qiuyao. Today is her birthday, her eighteenth birthday.

But not Kang So Eun's.

Today was just a free opportunity for her.

She looked at Jiang Qiuyao and suddenly felt a bad premonition for no reason. She confirmed again and again: "Sister, are you sure my uncle and aunt won't come?"

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Jiang Qiuyao's words were like a shot of reassurance, and Jiang Suen felt a little relieved.

The two of them didn't stay in the lounge for long before they were called out by Wu Qianxiu.

Only then did Jiang Suen realize that Wu Qianxiu had also invited many students for moral education, including those from Class D, Class A, and Class B.

Chi Shanhong and Lu Jinghe also came. It was rare to see them wearing formal attire.

Lu Jinghe still hadn't gotten over his bad mouth and said to Chi Shanhong, "You look like a decent person today."

Chi Shanhong didn't bother to pay attention to him. When he saw Jiang Qiuyao coming forward with a glass of wine, he smiled and said, "Qiuyao, happy birthday. Congratulations to the top scorer in the city for being admitted to University A."

"Thanks."

The wine glasses clinked together with a crisp sound.

Lu Jinghe then asked, "Why isn't that person here? The one who was always in second place—oh no, he's not in second place anymore, he's in third place."

Jiang Qiuyao knew he was talking about Chen Jieran: "He said he might be late today."

Jiang Suen said: "Maybe there's a traffic jam on the road. There are always a lot of cars at this time."

Chi Shanhong agreed: "Yes, I always leave home an hour early."

After saying that, he looked at Lu Jinghe and said, "Your home is farther away from here, yet you arrived earlier than me. You must have arrived quite a while earlier, right?"

Lu Jinghe was speechless for a moment: "...Who said I started from home? Do you think I spawn at home like you?"

Not long after, Chen Jieran finally appeared in the banquet hall and went straight to Jiang Qiuyao.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Chen Jieran handed the gift box to Jiang Qiuyao: "Happy birthday."

Lu Jinghe raised an eyebrow: "So you were late because you wanted to buy a last-minute gift."

"It's not temporary." Chen Jieran didn't want to explain more, and signaled Jiang Qiuyao to open the gift box with his eyes.

Inside was a very beautiful diamond bracelet, which shone brightly under the illumination of the overhead chandelier the moment it was opened.

"There's only one like this in the world." Chen Jieran smiled. "I picked out each diamond individually, and the style is custom-made. I think it suits you very well."

I just didn’t expect that due to the recent typhoon, the plane was delayed for a day and it only arrived in his hands just now.

"Shall I put it on for you?"

After Jiang Qiuyao nodded, Chen Jieran took it out of the box and carefully put it on her wrist.

The beauty's fair wrists are adorned with diamonds, complementing each other.
