Seeing this scene, Gu Li revealed an astonished expression; she had just thought Lin Yi was a freeloader, but now it beca clear that Lin Yi was indeed very capable.
Moreover, he was the owner of this hotel; she had underestimated Lin Yi.
After everyone had ordered their dishes, they all engaged in conversation, and many were extrely excited, naturally delighted to dine at such a fine hotel. Suddenly, a girl raised her head towards Han Xuewei and said, "Vivi, I heard before that your husband bought you jewelry worth over a hundred million. Could you show it to us?
We've never really seen such things, and today I haven't seen you wearing it."
The news about Lin Yi buying Han Xuewei luxury jewelry had spread, and many people said that the ring Han Xuewei wore was extrely expensive; everyone wanted to know if the rumor was true or not.
They didn't doubt it; they simply wanted to see it for themselves.
Hearing this, another female classmate also showed a curious look and spoke up, "Vivi, right, you didn't wear it at the last gathering either. The last ti, you only wore a necklace, not the ring. Did you bring it today?"
Everyone appeared curious, but Han Xuewei wasn't there to show off her wealth; however, these classmates were flattering her, and she felt too embarrassed to speak up, "The diamond ring is a bit large and inconvenient to carry around, and it easily gets knocked against things, so I didn't bring it."
As Han Xuewei spoke, she felt awkward. She was wearing the new ring Lin Yi had bought for her that noon.
At that mont, Su Zina caught sight of the ring in Han Xuewei's hand, radiating brilliant light, and could not help but show a look of surprise as she said, "Vivi, the ring you're wearing on your hand is a limited edition Tiffany piece, isn't it?"
As a design student, Su Zina was sensitive to such accessories and imdiately recognized the ring that Han Xuewei was wearing.
In fact, she had noticed it right from the start, but she hadn't asked, feeling that it wouldn't be appropriate; however, now that it had been ntioned, she spoke up.
Han Xuewei nodded in response.
"Right, I didn't wear the ring at noon. The previous ring actually wasn't very comfortable to wear, so my husband took to buy a new one."
On hearing this, Gu Li couldn't help but show a dismissive expression; jewelry worth over a hundred million was sothing she had never even heard of. It must be fake.
She had tried to discreetly inquire about it from many classmates, but being too embarrassed to ask outright and since so female classmates didn't get along with her, they didn't tell her much.
She only understood so recent circumstances about Han Xuewei, piecing things together from bits and pieces of information, which wasn't very thorough.
So, the purpose of joining the gathering was to learn more about Han Xuewei. She had been skeptical, so she had secretly checked on Heavenly Eye, only to find out that the chairman of Jinguo Hotel was indeed Lin Yi.
Furthermore, Lin Yi was the sole chairman of Jinguo Hotel, which ant all the shares were owned by him alone.
This alone was enough to prove Lin Yi's strength.
Her expression turned awkward at this mont; after all, even one Jinguo Hotel could surpass her entire family's enterprises.
Now hearing her classmates discussing Lin Yi buying jewelry worth over a hundred million for Han Xuewei, she didn't believe it.
Fortunately, Han Xuewei didn't produce the jewelry, so at this mont, her expression beca displeased, and her heart couldn't bear it anymore, fuming with jealousy.
After all, it was bad enough that Han Xuewei was pretty, but even her husband was so amazing—how could this not make people envious?
Gu Li felt agitated at this point, but looking at Han Xuewei, she was inwardly determined to find an exceedingly impressive man in the future, one who could surpass Han Xuewei. Her husband would have to be a billionaire.
Only then could she obtain the glory she desired. At this ti, Su Zina leaned in close to Han Xuewei, examining the diamond ring on her hand. She was an expert on diamond rings and directly said, "Vivi, I think the diamond ring on your hand is almost flawless, which is rare." Enjoy new adventures from empire
"Moreover, look at its purity, it's very high quality. In terms of diamond rings, it's considered extrely pure, and it should be 1.2 carats. Look, just lift your hand in the light."
At her words, Han Xuewei lifted her hand, and the diamond ring in the light shone even brighter.
Su Zina then smiled and said, "A ring of this caliber couldn't be bought for anything less than several million."
Hearing this, Han Xuewei just smiled. She didn't want to flaunt her wealth, so she quickly withdrew her hand.
"I don't know much about diamond rings, but what you said sounds about right," said Han Xuewei, now feeling sowhat embarrassed. She didn't want to show off at the gathering, nor did she want to discuss just how much capital she had in front of others.
After all, excessive flattery wasn't good for her.
Moreover, if it were just Qin Xiaoxu and Ye Caiwei, she wouldn't mind, but now there were so many others present, and also Gu Li was there.
What she feared most were rumors. The jealousy of so girls could be terrifying; they would deliberately spread false gossip and slander, painting her as pretentious.
Han Xuewei, though confident that truth fears no slander, couldn't help but be concerned about attracting unwanted attention.
She didn't want to bring these troubles upon herself.
Seeing Han Xuewei's reaction, Qin Xiaoxu couldn't help but co over, holding a glass of wine, and laughingly changed the subject with everyone.
Su Zina also felt that Han Xuewei didn't want to talk about it, so she didn't continue, and the group moved on to other conversations.
At this ti, Gu Li looked at Han Xuewei with an uncomfortable expression.
Though she wanted to chat with others, many didn't pay her much mind, finding her unpleasant to deal with.
The gathering today was actually one she had managed to attend by thickening her skin and pleading with a female classmate; in fact, no one had particularly invited her, so at this point, she could only stand aside, listening to the others' discussions.
