Mary Xiao was also very curious about what happened today.
First, why was Jas Ye's BMW 520 twice as fast as Paul Wang's BMW 540?
Then there was the matter of Jas's antique painting worth hundreds of thousands!
And why did Jas know people from the underworld, who treated him with such respect?
On the way back, Jas explained to her that his BMW 520 was a test drive car modified by the dealership to make it seem more powerful to potential buyers.
Mary didn't understand much about cars and believed him without much thought.
As for the antique painting, it had already been explained that soone had sold it to him at a low price out of friendship, and he had given it to Michael Wang out of friendship as well.
However, the scar-faced man was a bit tricky to explain.
After all, the man had been extrely deferential, calling him "Mr. Ye" repeatedly, which was hard for Jas to explain away.
In the end, he could only say that the scar-faced man's boss was a relative of one of his friends, whom he had t at a gathering, and the respect shown was due to his friend's influence.
Mary felt sothing was off but knew pressing further would be futile, so she didn't ask more questions.
Linda Dong had been observing Jas closely and was increasingly convinced that he was not a simple man. She decided to pay more attention to him in the future to uncover his secrets!
...
Paul Wang was reportedly in a bad state, unconscious when he was taken to the hospital.
His father was fired by the Dihao Group and was found to have been abusing his position for personal gain. He was imdiately sued by the Dihao Group's legal departnt and arrested by the police.
It could be said that Paul Wang's family was completely finished.
However, the Wang family wasn't well-known in Jinling, so no one really cared about their fate.
What everyone was truly interested in was the god-level tycoon on the short video platform and the mysterious figure who had booked the entire Hanging Gardens at the Buckingham Palace Hotel.
Everyone was eager to find out who they were and whether they were the sa person!
Soon, the day of the wedding anniversary arrived.
Since Jas had already told Mary he had a surprise for her, he insisted she change into an elegant white evening gown before they left the house.
Mary reluctantly agreed, muttering, "It's just dinner. Why do I have to dress so formally? Even if it's our wedding anniversary, it doesn't need to be this grand, does it?"
Jas smiled and said, "Today is our third anniversary, so it should be special. I've already booked a place for dinner, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied with tonight's arrangents."
He had been very secretive these past few days, not giving his wife any reason to suspect anything.
Mary smiled gently, feeling touched.
In the past two years, they had celebrated their anniversaries casually at ho. Although it was nothing special, Jas, even when he had nothing, would always prepare so thoughtful little gifts to make her happy.
However, this year, Jas was acting unusually mysterious, making her curious about what her live-in husband was planning.
After a while, they changed into their outfits and took a taxi to the Buckingham Palace Hotel.
Jas stepped out of the car and looked at Mary beside him with an indescribable tenderness. "Mary, tonight we'll celebrate our third wedding anniversary here. What do you think?"
Mary's expression turned strange. Had Jas really booked a restaurant here?
She instinctively asked, "You're not kidding , right?"
Jas smiled and said, "Of course not!"
He then explained, "I booked a spot here a few days ago. If you don't believe , we can go inside and check."
Mary shook her head. In three years of marriage, Jas had never lied to her, especially not on such an important day. She said, "No need, I believe you."
She then asked, "You didn't book a spot in the Hanging Gardens, did you? Isn't that place reserved for so big shot today?"
Jas quickly said, "I booked a spot next to the Hanging Gardens. We can see inside from there, and maybe we'll catch a glimpse of the big shot who reserved it. What do you think?"
Mary laughed, "I'm not as nosy as you!"
With that, they walked into the Buckingham Palace Hotel.
Just as they were about to go upstairs, they heard a woman's surprised voice, "Oh my, Mary Xiao, what are you doing here?!"
Mary looked up and saw a young couple approaching.
The man was dressed in an expensive suit, clearly a wealthy young master from so family. The woman was covered in designer brands, with a glamorous makeup look but a haughty expression. Her outfit was sowhat gaudy and flirtatious.
Mary recognized the woman as her forr college dorm mate, Sandra Zhao.
Although Liqing and Mary shared a dorm, they were not classmates.
Despite being dorm mates, Mary and Liqing didn't have a close relationship.
This was mainly because Liqing considered herself superior and was very jealous.
She always felt that Mary didn't deserve the title of campus belle and that she should have been the one.
But in reality, Liqing was inferior to Mary in terms of looks, figure, aura, and inner qualities.
However, Liqing had one advantage: she was very good at attracting n. It was said that she had hooked up with many wealthy n, and all her expenses during her four years in college were covered by them.
Mary frowned but, out of courtesy, greeted her as they approached, "Liqing, long ti no see. I'm here with my husband for dinner. What about you?"
Liqing exclaid, "What a coincidence! My husband and I are here for dinner too!"
She then feigned curiosity and asked, "By the way, which spot did you book? A regular room, a premium room, or a luxury room?"
Mary was clueless about Jas's arrangents and could only reply honestly, "I don't know. My husband made the reservation."
At this point, Liqing noticed Jas and covered her mouth with a laugh, "Oh, this must be your live-in husband, Jas Ye? Back in school, he was quite famous for being a freeloader!"
Her words were laced with mockery, making them especially harsh.
Mary felt extrely embarrassed.
Realizing her faux pas, Liqing quickly apologized, "Oh, I'm sorry, my bad. I tend to speak my mind. Mary, don't take it to heart..."
Jas frowned slightly. This Sandra Zhao seed to have co with ill intentions!
