104: Chapter 105 How did you manage to win over this handsome guy?

In the early morning, Li Xue had already applied her exquisite makeup and was facing the mirror to adjust her earrings.

She picked up her phone and dialed Li Ruonan's number.

The call connected quickly, and Li Ruonan's husky, sexy voice came through: "Hello, Xue'er? Calling so early, you wouldn't be missing me, would you?"

Li Xue chuckled: "Stop being so narcissistic! I'm just asking, are you really not coming to the class reunion today?"

"Not going, not going." Li Ruonan refused decisively: "I'm busy, I still have to work for your Boss Jiang, where would I find the time to reminisce with that bunch of boring people?"

Li Xue pouted: "Cut it out, you're just too lazy to deal with them."

"Hey, you really do understand me." Li Ruonan said with a grin: "Besides, you're the star of the show today. If I went, wouldn't I be stealing your spotlight?"

Li Xue rolled her eyes: "Give me a break, since when have you been so humble?"

"This is to give you face!" Li Ruonan smirked: "I heard you're taking your man today to 'awe the whole crowd'? Tsk tsk, if Lin Ya sees that the car your Boss Jiang is driving is a lamborghini veneno, she might just faint from anger on the spot, right?"

Li Xue's face turned red: "Who, who said anything about aweing the crowd? I'm just taking Jiang Jing to meet some old classmates!"

"Give me a break, don't I know you?" Li Ruonan teased: "In the past, you were hurt and left crying by Lin Ya's rumors; shouldn't you get some payback now?"

Li Xue was called out on her true intentions and gave a light huff: "...Anyway, forget it if you're not coming. I'll treat you to a meal separately later."

"That's a must!" Li Ruonan laughed: "Remember to take a few photos of Lin Ya looking frustrated; I want to treasure them!"

"You really are..." Li Xue shook her head helplessly, chatted for a few more sentences, and then hung up the phone.

Jiang Jing finished changing and walked out of the walk-in closet. The casual attire looked incredibly fitting on him, accentuating his tall and straight figure.

Li Xue's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but walk over to help him tidy up: "Brother is just so handsome, any clothes look so good on Brother."

Jiang Jing raised an eyebrow: "Your mouth is so sweet. Let me taste what's going on—did you sneak some honey?"

Li Xue's face turned red: "Brother, stop messing around. I'm just telling the truth..."

Jiang Jing chuckled low and reached out to pinch her cheek: "Don't worry, I guarantee you'll be the center of attention today."

Li Xue felt a warmth in her heart, stood on her tiptoes, and pecked him lightly on the lips: "Thank you, Brother~"

The two went downstairs, and Jiang Jing led Li Xue directly to the garage. When the scissor doors of the lamborghini veneno slowly rose, Li Xue still couldn't help but exclaim: "Every time I see this car, it feels so over-the-top..."

Jiang Jing laughed and pulled her into the car: "This is nothing yet. Once we get to the restaurant, I expect there will be even more people watching."

Sure enough, when the lamborghini veneno drove into the restaurant parking lot, it immediately attracted countless gazes.

Li Xue listened to the discussions around her, and a secret sense of satisfaction inexplicably rose in her heart.

She stole a glance at Jiang Jing and found his expression indifferent, as if he were long accustomed to this kind of scene.

"Let's go." Jiang Jing took her hand and, under the gaze of everyone, walked calmly toward the restaurant.

The gathering place was a high-end specialty restaurant with elegant decor and a private atmosphere.

A waiter respectfully led them to a luxury private room.

The private room for the class reunion was on the top floor of the restaurant. It was spacious and bright, and over a dozen people had already arrived, gathered in small groups chatting.

Li Xue walked in, arm-in-arm with Jiang Jing, immediately drawing a chorus of exclamations—

"Wow! Li Xue! Long time no see!"

"Oh my god, you're getting more and more beautiful!"

A few girls she was close with immediately crowded around, greeting her all at once.

Several girls secretly sized up Jiang Jing, their eyes filled with amazement and curiosity.

One of the girls with short hair leaned into Li Xue's ear and asked in a low voice: "Xue'er, who is this...?"

Li Xue held onto Jiang Jing's arm, smiling sweetly: "My boyfriend, Jiang Jing."

"Wow—" The girls let out a soft exclamation in unison, their eyes scanning back and forth over Jiang Jing.

A girl wearing glasses couldn't help but mutter softly: "This is too handsome, right... Xue'er, where did you find him? He's not rented, is he? How is he as handsome as a celebrity?"

Li Xue chuckled: "Rented? Do you think I could afford to rent him?"

The girls looked at each other and all revealed an "I get it" expression.

"Got it, got it, so it's a 'kept man' relationship!" The girl with short hair smirked.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Xue tapped her lightly, her face turning slightly red, "We are in a serious relationship!"

"Really?" The girl with glasses pushed up her frames, looking skeptical, "How did you trick a handsome guy of this caliber into your hands?"

Li Xue huffed: "What do you mean 'trick'? I relied on my charm!"

"Tsk tsk tsk..." The girl with glasses pushed up her frames, looking mischievous, "Then you really are 'eating too well'; this face, this body..."

"Tsk tsk tsk..." The girl with short hair smirked as she sized up Jiang Jing, "With such a good body, he must be the type that looks slim in clothes but has muscle when taking them off, right?"

Li Xue's face turned red, and she pushed her lightly: "Tone it down!"

The girl with glasses also leaned in and lowered her voice: "Xue'er, be honest, how is he... in that department?"

"Which department?" Li Xue played dumb.

"Stop pretending!" The girl with short hair smirked, "You know... stamina, endurance, you know~"

Li Xue's face instantly flushed red, and she glared at them in embarrassment and annoyance: "Can you guys be serious!"

The girls laughed out loud.

Jiang Jing stood to the side. Although he hadn't heard their whispers clearly, judging by the looks they occasionally shot his way and their ambiguous smiles, he could roughly guess the topic of conversation.

Sure enough, when women get dirty, men don't even stand a chance.

He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and deliberately leaned close to Li Xue's ear, speaking gently in a voice everyone could hear: "Baby, do you need me to help you 'teach' them a lesson?"

The low, magnetic voice made the girls instantly quiet down, and then—

"Ahhh! That's too charming!"

"Xue'er! Your boyfriend is playing dirty!"

Li Xue's face was as red as a ripe apple, and she pinched Jiang Jing lightly: "Don't stir up trouble!"

Jiang Jing blinked innocently, causing another round of screams from the girls.

The girl with glasses patted Li Xue on the shoulder and sighed with emotion: "Sigh, as expected, beauties always have top-tier boyfriends; us ordinary people can only be envious, jealous, and hateful."

The girl with short hair sighed: "Yeah, if my boyfriend were even half as handsome as yours, I'd wake up laughing in my dreams."

Li Xue couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, stop teasing. When Lin Ya comes later, don't go saying random things."

"Don't worry!" The girl with short hair winked, "We'll definitely cooperate with you and let her 'see the world'!"

Just as they were talking, the door to the private room was pushed open again, and a woman wearing a designer dress and exquisite makeup walked in, stepping in high heels—

Lin Ya had finally arrived.
