Chapter 740: High School Dropout And A Second Marriage
“Sorry… I… I didn’t do it on purpose!” Lan Su’s awkward voice could still vaguely be heard.
It was her first time serving someone. In the past, she had always been the one being served. Even back in Yulong Mainland where Wu Clan was already deteriorating, Lan Su had yet to go down to the level of having to serve others.
Perhaps it was her guilt for Ya Dang, Lan Su was incredibly tolerant of him.
“Foolish woman!” Ya Dang, who wanted to continue criticizing, relented after hearing what Lan Su said and ultimately uttered that.
On the other hand, Yun Jian was already on her way to the United Luenmei Shopping Center.
United Luenmei Shopping Center, evident from its name, had a good majority of merchandise one would need to buy in Longmen City. Bridal shops and stuff were not plentiful but there were still a few of them in the shopping center.
In Longmen City, United Luenmei Shopping Center was considered a relatively large platform for shopping.
Not knowing which shop Qin Yirou and Dong Ruan had gone to, Yun Jian looked for them patiently. It was a sweltering noon, so she was only dressed in a white hoodie. The pure white sweater added youth and a sense of delicateness to her.
Passersby who did not know any better would think that Yun Jian was only an exuberant teenage girl when they saw her.
Making a round trip to several bridal shops in the United Luenmei Shopping Center, Yun Jian was not anxious even when she did not manage to find Qin Yirou. The evening of the day before yesterday, which was Friday, she had heard Qin Yirou saying that she would attend a high school reunion with Dong Ruan at noon today.
Yun Jian could guess as much. Dong Ruan was most probably free today and took a day off to attend the high school reunion. Once that ended, she could accompany Qin Yirou to pick her wedding gown.
Being a high-ranking official, Dong Ruan was usually busy. She probably had yet to dive nose deep into work for these few days, so she would attend the reunion gathering with Qin Yirou first and go shopping for a wedding dress with the latter in the afternoon now that she was back from her hometown.
May 21st was the wedding day Qin Yirou and Ge Junjian had decided on. It was now March and two short months were all that was left before the day came.
It was already late for Qin Yirou to pick out a wedding dress, but Ge Junjian had a hectic schedule in the military—Yun Jian knew about it too, so he had no time to come out with Qin Yirou to search for her dress. Since Dong Ruan was free today, she took up the task without much fuss.
As she thought about it, Yun Jian made a turn at a corner and coincidentally saw Qin Yirou standing some distance away when she looked up. Dong Ruan was standing next to Qin Yirou too.
Schooling her face to walk over with a smile, Yun Jian caught a group of people standing in front of Qin Yirou and Dong Ruan. The two women had yet to enter the bridal shop while the group standing before them looked to be around their age.
The woman who stood right in front was raising her voice to carp at Qin Yirou with a sharp tongue, “There I was wondering why the both of you are leaving right after the reunion—it’s a gathering after all, we’re going for karaoke in the afternoon but you two left saying you have things to do!”
“If we didn’t pass by here to go to the karaoke, we wouldn’t have seen you!”
“It’s not easy to get all of us old friends together, you two are really…”
“Besides, Qin Yirou, didn’t you drop out of high school? Aren’t you already married? Are you getting married for the second time if you’re here to pick a wedding gown?”
The woman was a loudmouth, literally loud too, so most people who walked past could hear her.
