Chapter 1991: Three Things Women Are Good At

“I know we really wanted to matchmake Jinchen and Zijing. I told my boy about it and he really hates the idea of getting match-made. He insists that he isn’t desperate enough to consider arranged marriages and claims plenty of girls like him. He even threatened not to come home if I insisted on making him see more girls.”

“Sigh! It was impossible for me to change his mind! I’m starting to suspect he already met someone he is interested in, but he refused to tell me anything. You know about his awful temper. When we barred him from joining the army, he secretly went ahead anyway. This time, I don’t dare to force him against his will anymore. I am so sorry that things did not work out. In any case, we can’t force him to date Zijing. If the children are destined for each other, they will eventually get married. If they are not fated to be together, let’s not force them against their wills. Zijing is a great girl, so I am certain she has suitors aplenty,” said Mrs Xu.

Mrs Xu wanted to clarify the matter with Mrs Ji, but she was not stupid enough to tell the entire truth. By putting it across to Mrs Ji this way, it was not considered a lie.

The moment Mrs Ji heard what Mrs Xu said, even though she was a little disappointed and indignant, she did not blame Mrs Xu for it. To begin with, Mrs Xu had done her utmost and her son was the one who refused to consider Ji Zijing as a marriage prospect. He was so adamant about it that he threatened never to come home if they continued forcing him. She could not insist on making Xu Jinchen see her daughter. Also, she did not dare to demand this of him!

Secondly, Mrs Ji did not dare to throw a temper no matter how upset she was considering Mrs Xu’s high status.

Although they were friends, it did not mean she could speak her mind. After all, there was a huge gulf between their statuses, so she should consider it an honor that Mrs Xu was willing to befriend her.

Since Mrs Xu agreed to match-make Xu Jinchen and Ji Zijing, she was showing respect to her family. Sadly, they did not succeed in the end. Whatever it was, it was impossible for her to throw a temper at Mrs Xu. Moreover, it was no big deal, so it was not worth offending Mrs Xu over something as minor as this. If she offended Mrs Xu, all the ladies of high society would shun her. It was simply not worth provoking Mrs Xu no matter what.

“Mrs Xu, you are right. Since Jinchen is strongly against it, we shouldn’t force him. If we force him to see my daughter, they will never be happy. I am sure they will eventually meet the right partner in time. Don’t you worry. I am confident he must have met a girl he likes. He must be reacting strongly about being matchmade because he genuinely likes this girl,” said Mrs Ji as she pretended to be understanding and concealed her anger completely.

“Thank you for being so understanding about it. Let’s call the girls and hang out soon,” said Mrs Xu.

“Sure thing,” acknowledged Mrs Ji. She chatted a little while more with Mrs Xu before hanging up the phone.

After Mrs Ji hung up the phone, she instantly looked sad.

Ji Zijing came close to Mrs Ji when her mother was talking to Mrs Xu, so she overheard the entire conversation. The moment she heard what Mrs Xu said, she bought it without hesitation. However, she could not help feeling absolutely resentful and disappointed.

“Sigh. Forget it. Stop thinking about it. Even though Xu Jinchen is a good marrying prospect, he will never be yours. There are still plenty of other men out there! Considering our family’s high status, your good looks and ability, I am sure you will meet the right guy one day,” comforted Mrs Ji. “I know Xu Jinchen is a good catch, but he is just the second son in the family and is in the military. Xu Jinlin is bound to become the next family head, so if you marry Xu Jinchen, the only thing you gain is the title of being his wife. Xu Jinlin will end up inheriting everything else in the family one day, so I suggest finding an only son to marry. That way, no one will compete with you for the family inheritance.”

“Got it.” Ji Zijing calmed down a little. On the surface, it seemed like a political decision to marry Xu Jinchen, but she genuinely liked him, so it was hard for her to let it go.

The two of them went in without speaking further since their friends were still waiting inside the private room.

Meanwhile, Zi Beiying did not bring Mengda and Nan into the room with her. Instead, she told them to use another private room and have dinner.

The moment Xu Jinchen came in with Zi Beiying, Chen Meng and the others were awestruck. Even though they were mentally prepared that anyone worthy of Xu Jinchen would be a pretty girl, their eyes lit up when they saw Zi Beiying.

Xu Jinchen introduced Zi Beiying to Chen Meng and the others before inviting her to sit down in between Gu Ning and him. He had deliberately seated Zi Beiying in between them so that she wouldn’t have to feel awkward.

Chen Meng and the others did as they promised and remained serious without doing anything to make Zi Beiying uneasy. They simply looked at her every now and then and could tell from her poise that she was no ordinary person. She was from a powerful family and was a good fighter.

They had a very good first impression of Zi Beiying.

After dinner, they rested for about ten minutes before leaving. Since Leng Shaoting and the others had to prepare for their mission, Zi Beiying had to go back on her own. Zi Beiying knew they had work to do, so she did not follow them.

…

The rendezvous point was located in a villa in Jingshan District around three clicks from Long Tianhu’s meeting point.

The others had already arrived when they got there. Gu Ning came with six soldiers and eight anti-drug police officers were deployed.

The moment Gu Ning arrived at the villa, she went to get changed and put on her disguise.

Everyone was dumbstruck when they saw Gu Ning walk out in disguise.

Even though they still knew it was Gu Ning, only people who knew her well could tell it was her. People who did not know her wouldn’t be able to detect her disguise at all.

“Oh god! This is insane. You look like a completely different person! I didn’t know you could disguise yourself so well!” sighed Chen Meng.

“Don’t you know about the three things women are good at?” asked Gu Ning as she smiled teasingly.

“That’s makeup, plastic surgery, and photoshop. All I have done is put on some makeup and used some cosmetic surgery tools. I merely stuck something on my face and didn’t go through any surgery,” said Gu Ning.

“Makeup, plastic surgery, and photoshop are all the rage now! Also, people have a lot of funny stories about them.” A police officer from the anti drug division said, “I recently saw something about a young man and young woman dating online for half a year before they finally decided to meet. However, the boy beat up the girl after they met in person. Do you know why?”

“Why did he do that?” asked Xu Jinchen quizzically.

Chen Meng and the others were clearly clueless since they never bothered with such news.
