~D.W Resort~
The resort was built on the outskirts of Kia City. It was a luxury resort with natural scenery being one of its best points. The architecture was a mix of both modern and ancient. The resort provided a wide range of activities. There was a golf course, an archery ground, outdoor and indoor swimming pools. There was even an equestrian club near the resort and if one passed through the forest path lined with camphor trees, one would be able to reach the equestrian club in no time from the resort.
Xiang Wai was dressed in a navy blue one-shoulder jumpsuit. She didn't really have any need to style her short hair. She didn't wear any earrings. But she did wear a platinum chain around her neck with a heart-shaped pendant hanging from it. A silver-colored watch was laying on her wrist which had tiny diamonds studded in it.
As for shoes... Well, she did find a pair of high heels from her long-forgotten collection but she hadn't used it for so long that it was a bit uncomfortable for her to walk. Of course, she won't let it show. But it was really difficult to keep her balance. She was baffled at how she could even balance on a rope but couldn't walk properly with high heels just because she hadn't worn them in the last few years?
She looked at the hall that her class president, Tang Ping had told her about and walked in. Her eyes wandered around trying to look for the bride. But before she could find the bride, she was startled by the loud screaming around her. Oh, and these certainly were not scream of fear. She wondered which celebrity was making these women go crazy but soon she realized that the celebrity seemed to be... Her!
"Xiang Wai! You came!"
"Oh my! Class Queen is still as handsome as before."
"What? No way! She looks even more handsome than before."
"Yes, yes, she does."
Xiang Wai's lips twitched as she looked at the circle of women around her. As she looked at their faces, she could put a name on their faces instantly. Her memory wasn't that bad that she'd forget her classmates. But it was surprising to her that they still remembered her and seemed to have the same enthusiasm when looking at her.
For a moment, she felt a little shy and embarrassed.
"Wai, we've missed you!"
"Yeah! You vanished right after graduation. I studied so hard to follow you to the Bai University and in the end, I didn't find you there."
"Class Queen, you broke so many hearts."
"Right, you did."
On the side, their male classmates of hers had the same glare directed at her as they did back in the day. After all, whenever she was around there was no girl who would pay them any attention. The basketball court will be filled with girls only when she was playing with the boys. It was a known fact that Xiang Wai was the most popular one at school.
She didn't have that many suitors as much she had her little fangirls.
How could the boys not hate her? She always stole the limelight from them. It's been years and she still was at the center of attention. It's not like Xiang Wai was not used to this attention. She still had the most limelight in her squad. However, this was different.
These women had pure affection and admiration in their eyes for her that made her feel a bit weird. She was respected and she was admired at her job as well. This still felt different.
"Move aside, you all!" said a tall woman and came to stand before Xiang Wai with a huge smile on her face. "Pingping has been waiting for you. We all said you won't come but she was certain, you'd show up. It's such a surprise to us."
"Class President invited me herself," said Xiang Wai. "I couldn't refuse her."
"Let me take you to Pingping," said the tall woman. "Come on, everyone. Let's get some photos with our Wai."
"Yay!" The girl squad was certainly very excited.
As they were about to enter the bride's room, someone called out, "Wai!"
Xiang Wai turned to look at the bespectacled man and her lips curled up, "Vice President, you're here too?"
Class vice president fixed his glasses and smiled sheepishly.
"Wai, you don't even know that vice president is marrying our class president?"
Xiang Wai was so surprised to hear that. She only knew who was the bride. Why didn't she pay attention to the wedding photoshoot outside the hall? How embarrassing that she didn't even know who was the groom.
"Sorry, I didn't know," said Xiang Wai. "But congratulations! You're really fortunate."
"Fortunate?" repeated the bespectacled man.
"Haven't you been together with the class president since high school? Now, you both are getting married after almost a decade of high school. It shows you both are really meant to be."
The vice president grinned at her words. Oh, he certainly was getting too many envious gazes today. Who didn't date in high school? But how many of them were still together? Those rare ones could be counted on one hand. And he was one of them.
"Feeling proud?" asked Xiang Wai.
Everyone teased the groom making the poor guy blush and run for his life. He couldn't deal with these women who had gotten even more audacious after all these years.
After he ran away, these ladies took Xiang Wai to the bride who started jumping in excitement when she saw Xiang Wai. Looking at this, Xiang Wai was actually very happy. For the first time in forever, she felt like she also had an existence. One that was hard to forget. See? At least these classmates didn't forget her.
Maybe these women were chattier and noisy than Xiang Wai was used to now. But it still felt good to be with them.. They were rubbing off their energy on her and making her feel happy.
