"Everyone's been waiting for you."
Eight impeccably dressed people were sitting in a tea room. As people who had made a name for themselves, each of them carried an air of superiority.
Tang Sisi took Chu Feng's elbow and led him to a chair. "There was a bit of traffic on the way. Sorry that you had to wait for us," she said apologetically.
Usually, the beautiful and elegant Tang Sisi would be the center of attention. Today, everyone's gazes were focused on the plainly dressed Chu Feng.
Who's that guy? Everyone thought.
"Sisi, is he your boyfriend? Why don't you introduce him to us?" A tall woman with a magnificent figure narrowed his gaze and assessed the cheap clothes Chu Feng was wearing. She sounded like she was gloating at Tang Sisi's misfortune.
That woman's name is Yuan Li. She was one of the "dream girls" back in college, but she could never catch up to Tang Sisi, whether in popularity or academic achievement. Her friends had always compared her to Tang Sisi, and that made her very unhappy.
She was overjoyed to see Tang Sisi together with what seemed to be a loser. Finally, she was better than her.
"Why didn't you tell us you have a boyfriend? Do you consider us as friends?" Yuan Li said sarcastically.
The other college mates turned their heads and stared at Chu Feng. The women put on pitiful looks while secretly gloating, while the men were jealous that someone as unremarkable as Chu Feng could have Tang Sisi as his girlfriend.
Chu Feng smiled knowingly. No matter how wealthy or successful someone might be, they could never shed their true colors.
Tang Sisi blushed slightly and waved her hands. "No, no. Chu Feng here isn't my boyfriend. He's a doctor, and a very skilled one at that."
