Super Soldier in the City

That was a woman who still appeared quite attractive, draped in luxurious world-famous brands, a glittering necklace around her neck, a watch on one wrist, a bracelet on the other, and her ears also adorned with dazzling earrings; she seemed like a model showcasing global luxury brands.

However, the makeup on the woman’s face seemed a bit too heavy. That kind of beauty had much to do with the cosmetics—if she was truly bare-faced, while not ugly, she certainly wouldn’t measure up to Meng Xiaofei.

Standing by the woman’s side at this moment was a man in a crisp suit, probably in his forties. His gaze swept over Meng Xiaofei and the other girls, immediately revealing an excited gleam, but he quickly hid it and, with hands clasped behind his back, adopted a very composed demeanor.

Meng Xiaofei didn’t even stand up at this point, but glanced askance at the woman and said, "Cui Jiali, aren’t you annoying?"

The woman named Cui Jiali let out a giggle and said, "How could I be annoying? It’s been so long since I’ve seen you, and now that I finally do, of course we need to catch up. We’re from the same hometown, after all. For countrymen to meet and talk like this, isn’t it a bit rude of you?"

Meng Xiaofei curled her lip, "I should mind my manners with you? I’m not sick. Go do whatever it is you need to do; don’t here and ruin my meal."

Meng Xiaofei was a forthright girl, clear about who she liked and disliked, unafraid to hide her true thoughts. This trait was something anyone who interacted with her would understand quickly. Now, with Meng Xiaofei speaking to Cui Jiali in such a manner, it was obvious that there was some dispute between them, or at the very least, a mutual dislike.

Then, Cui Jiali sardonically remarked, "Wow, eating lobster... You must haven’t had such fine lobster before, isn’t it exceptionally tasty? Eat slowly now, there’s plenty to go around on this cruise—make sure you get your money’s worth."
