Rebirth has space, and the new love sends the bad husband to prison
Chapter 119 Come is Come and Go is Go
In the bustling and noisy capital, Jinyi Pavilion is like a dazzling pearl, exuding endless luxury and charm. It is not only a palace of food, but also a symbol of identity and status. It has become the only choice for those famous and powerful nobles in the capital to hold parties.
At this moment, Liang Sumei, Wei Zhi, Zeng Yaman, Lu Ziming, Weng Jiaxing and other distinguished guests were sitting together in the luxuriously decorated private room of Jinyi Pavilion. The private room was filled with a faint fragrance, the exquisite tableware was neatly arranged, and the walls were hung with precious calligraphy and paintings, showing nobility and elegance everywhere.
Zeng Yaman was seen smiling as she gracefully raised the wine glass in her hand. She turned her gaze to Weng Jiaxing who was sitting next to her and said in a tender voice: "Young Master Weng, Director Weng of the Beijing Police Station, you are the most outstanding among our group! This glass of wine, I toast you!" After that, she raised her head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Her movements were quick and decisive, showing her boldness.
Weng Jiaxing smiled and responded modestly: "No, no, thank you for the compliment. I can achieve what I have today thanks to the support and help of my friends."
As early as high school, Weng Jiaxing resolutely joined the army. After demobilization, he was assigned to work at the Xicheng District Police Station. With his outstanding talents and unremitting efforts, he climbed all the way and has now been promoted to the director of the Criminal Investigation Department, becoming a shining star in the police force. Weng Jiaxing and Wei Zhi have been close neighbors since childhood. The two grew up together and were as close as brothers. For Wei Zhi, Weng Jiaxing has always been his role model and the "other people's child" in his father's words. During Wei Zhi's student life, his father always used Weng Jiaxing's outstanding deeds to spur him on and inspire him.
Seeing Zeng Yaman turn her wine glass upside down, Weng Jiaxing felt that he could not refuse the beauty, so he took a sip but did not toast. "It's my job, sorry," his voice was low and sincere, with a barely perceptible apology, but also revealed his loyalty and perseverance to his duty as a policeman.
"Lu Ziming, Young Master Lu, I heard that your elder sister is going to be promoted again? You should also find something serious to do!" Zeng Yaman teased.
Lu Ziming asked back: "Isn't Wei Zhi still busy with his work? Why are you talking about me?"
"Young Master Wei is naturally different from us. He comes from a famous family with a distinguished background. Even if he does nothing for his whole life, he can still live a decent life relying on the glory of his family." Zeng Yaman's words were full of complacency and pride, as if she was talking about herself. Her eyes intentionally or unintentionally swept to Liang Sumei who was standing aside, and there seemed to be a subtle provocation mixed in that pride.
Zeng Yaman pointed out the family backgrounds of everyone present one by one. Liang Sumei had already heard her hidden meaning. What she meant was that a powerless country girl was not the same as them. But Liang Sumei, who had been reborn, would not care about these worldly prejudices.
"Hello, dear, sorry, sorry, I'm late. You know I just came back from abroad and I'm not familiar with the road." While everyone was chatting, a sharp female voice suddenly interrupted the conversation.
Liang Sumei looked up upon hearing this and saw a girl of about the same age as them. Her long wavy hair shone with an alluring luster, and she was wearing a brand-name plaid dress that perfectly outlined her proud curves.
Zeng Yaman's smile grew brighter when she saw the girl. She almost couldn't wait to jump up from her seat and walked towards her. "Oh, my dear, I thought you weren't coming. Sit down quickly." Zeng Yaman deliberately arranged for her to sit in the empty seat next to Wei Zhi, with a sly and mischievous look in her eyes.
"Master Wei, you don't know him yet, right? Let me introduce him to you. This is Ma Lin, who just came back from England." Zeng Yaman said softly, then turned to Ma Lin with a smile in her eyes. "This is Wei Zhi, my friend. Isn't he handsome?"
Hearing this, Ma Lin raised a gentle smile and gently raised her slender hand, "Hello, Young Master Wei, I often hear Yaman mention you, and seeing is believing. You are exactly as I imagined."
"Hello." Wei Zhi smiled and gently touched Ma Lin's fingertips, briefly and politely, then retracted it, maintaining a perfect distance, and said no more.
Ma Lin exchanged a subtle glance with Zeng Yaman, then she lightly walked around Wei Zhi and walked to Liang Sumei's side, pretending to be intimate and asked: "Hello, beautiful lady, why haven't I seen you in Beijing? May I ask which family you are from?"
Liang Sumei knew that the other party wanted to use her family background to embarrass her, but her strong heart made it a piece of cake to deal with these tricks. She was calm and responded playfully: "Hello, Miss Ma, I am Wei Zhi's work partner, not a delicate daughter of a wealthy family."
Ma Lin expected that Liang Sumei would hide her face in her collar out of shame after hearing the question, and even if she answered reluctantly, her voice would be trembling and as small as a mosquito, as if she had never seen the world. Unexpectedly, she did not show the panic and shame she expected, but took over the topic with an indescribable calmness. There was no evasion or embarrassment in her eyes, but unexpected calmness and confidence. This scene made Ma Lin's carefully calculated little abacus fall through, and she couldn't help but feel a subtle sense of loss, even mixed with a hint of imperceptible anger.
"Oh, right, Wei Zhi!" Zeng Yaman suddenly spoke as if she remembered something, "I still remember that you were a real English expert back then! Back then, your English composition won first place in the city! But... you've been an educated youth for so long, you wouldn't have forgotten everything, right?"
Zeng Yaman had long seen that Wei Zhi had no special feelings for her. But she was not willing to give up, so she came up with a plan - to win over her best friend Ma Lin, who had just returned from studying in the UK, to conquer Wei Zhi's "fortress" together. However, she was unaware that her actions had already caused ripples in Wei Zhi's heart. Wei Zhi felt very resistant and disgusted with Zeng Yaman's actions. Especially when they pointed the finger at Liang Sumei, he felt even more disgusted. Although he was already dissatisfied in his heart, considering that the other party was a girl after all, Wei Zhi still politely maintained his gentlemanly character.
"Once knowledge is learned in your mind, it will be like a deep imprint that is hard to forget, right, Sumei?" Wei Zhi's eyes were filled with endless tenderness, just like the warm spring sun gently falling on Liang Sumei, as if to say, 'Xiaomei, once you are imprinted in my heart, I will never forget you.' Liang Sumei nodded slightly in understanding, expressing her agreement, and at the same time, she gently uttered a standard English sentence: "Of course."
Weng Jiaxing, who was standing by, couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Liang Sumei speak this fluent English. He widened his eyes and exclaimed in disbelief: "Oh my! I didn't expect that there are more than two people here who can speak English. Miss Liang can also speak English!"
However, at this moment, Lu Ziming suddenly interrupted and said with a slightly disdainful tone: "Huh, who doesn't know a little English? I know it too! Things like 'come is e', 'go is go', and 'nod yes', 'shake head no' and so on. But just being able to speak a few simple daily expressions does not mean you have truly mastered English. The truly amazing people should be like Miss Ma Lin, who can chat and laugh effortlessly with foreign friends and speak freely. That's what we call amazing!"
Liang Sumei has been studying English diligently on the software in the Space Mall. The advanced gadgets in the Space Mall made her realize that if she wants to be able to handle difficult problems in the future science and technology field with ease, mastering English is absolutely crucial! Now, she has mastered the virtual AI dialogue teacher to perfection and can speak fluent English. Despite having such outstanding abilities, she has never shown off in any occasion.
After hearing what Lu Ziming said, Ma Lin was like a noble white swan. She gracefully covered her red lips and laughed as clear and sweet as a silver bell. She also showed a hint of false modesty on her face: "Oh, Mr. Lu, you are too kind! I can communicate fluently in English because I studied in the UK and had a unique language environment. In comparison, Miss Liang lacked such favorable conditions, and it was not easy for her to just learn some simple daily spoken English!"
As he was talking, Ma Lin lightly picked up the wine glass in his hand and gently rubbed it against the wine glass that Wei Zhi had placed on the table. With the rustling sound produced by the friction between the two wine glasses, the whole atmosphere instantly became strangely ambiguous. However, such a sound did not bring the slightest sense of pleasure to Wei Zhi, but instead caused him to be full of disgust. Ma Lin did not seem to notice Wei Zhi's displeasure, and still half-jokingly said to Wei Zhi coquettishly: "Wei Shao, could it be that you personally taught Miss Liang these few English sentences? Haha... By the way, I am planning to open a non-profit English learning class in my mother's school. If you and Miss Liang are interested, you can come and learn."
Wei Zhi had no idea that Liang Sumei could speak English. When he heard the word "of course" from Liang Sumei's mouth, he was also surprised.
Liang Sumei was already fed up with the various performances that Zeng Yaman and Ma Lin, the two powerful forces, had put on against her. She really didn't want to endure it any longer, so without waiting for Wei Zhi to speak, she quickly replied in a very pure British accent: "Miss Ma, Weizhi and I are very busy at work and have no time to learn English. Thank you for your kindness. We appreciate it."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present, including Wei Zhi, was shocked by Liang Sumei's standard and fluent British accent. They were all stunned, as if they had seen something incredible. Especially Ma Lin, who originally thought that Liang Sumei could only speak a few simple English sentences, but now found that she was wrong. She was so embarrassed that her face turned red and she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
Wei Zhi's face was filled with unbelievable surprise. He stared at Liang Sumei with wide eyes, his voice trembling slightly with excitement. "Xiaomei, you...how come you can speak English? I didn't know anything about it."
Liang Sumei smiled and replied casually, "Oh, it's just English. How can it be so difficult to learn? I already knew it. After all, it's just a language. We don't use it in our daily lives, so I don't think it's necessary to talk about it. It's normal that you don't know it."
However, Liang Sumei's seemingly careless words pierced the heart of Ma Lin, who was proud of her ability to speak English. Ma Lin felt as if she had been greatly humiliated, and her face turned very ugly. She tried to stay calm, but her unnatural lips betrayed her inner discomfort. She cast a fierce sidelong glance at Zeng Yaman, who had invited her here, with a look of reproach in her eyes.
