My Evil Genius Wife

Chapter 262: Welcome Party I

The Allure Club-

The alluring bright lights and the ear-blasting music were complimenting the darkness of the club. On the dance stage, people were grooving to the music and were matching their steps with the rhythm of the man, who was controlling the whole crowd with his music, The DJ.

While the ground floor was packed with the lively people who were dancing and some were trying to find new partners, the second floor was rather quiet and detached from the bustling. The second floor has private rooms that were booked for private parties and gatherings.

One of the rooms was booked by the students of Xin Lin for their small gathering to welcome the star of their department, Xu Nuan, who was yet to arrive.

In the dimly lit spacious room, the long L-shaped couches were arranged with three glass tables in front of them. The appetizers and drinks were arranged on the table for the guests to enjoy while some were grooving to the jazz music in the room.

The private room blocked the noise coming from the outside and was playing songs of their choice in the room.

Most of the students have already arrived and been waiting for the girl that everyone wants to meet and get acquainted with. The video posted by Mr. Wen changed everyone’s perspective of Xu Nuan and now everyone wants to get along with the girl, who not only topped the scholarship exams but has been labeled as the genius of Xin Lin as soon as she joined the college.

.....

The men were mostly dressed in black shirts and trousers, some were even wearing a jacket over them, looking sophisticated and cool. Meanwhile, girls were dressed in evening party dresses and were trying to look the best tonight. ????????????????????????d. ᴄ????????

Tan Hai, who arranged the party, was wearing a navy blue shirt and black trousers. His hair was neatly styled with gel and he looked like he had put in some effort while getting ready for today’s party.

He picked up a glass of wine from the table and walked to Ye Yijun, who was standing in the corner alone. As usual, Ye Yijun (Aurora) didn’t do anything special and was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. However, his unbothered attitude enhanced the charm of his handsomeness.

” Everyone is enjoying themselves. Why are you standing here like this?” Tan Hai said as he joined him.

Ye Yijun glanced at him and said, ” It has nothing to do with me. I came because you were pleading to me.”

” Aye, don’t lie. I wasn’t pleading to you. You came upon hearing that Xu Nuan is going to attend the party too. I know that.” He said teasingly.

Ye Yijun glanced at him but didn’t say anything. He cleared his throat and asked, “Why did you arrange this party? Since when the seniors started to hold parties like this for freshers? That too for a particular student.”

” Aye, what are you talking about? Didn’t we arrange the welcoming party for freshers? It’s just...this girl joined the college late and had to experience all of this. That’s why I wanted her to get along with everyone and make some friends.” He said while trying to be casual about it.

Ye Yijun frowned. Tan Hai might not say but he knows that he is not the type to throw parties for others like this. He must have had another intention in mind.

” I don’t know what you are thinking, but keep the reputation of Xin Lin in mind before trying anything funny. After what happened on the forum, you can see that Mr. Wu is not the type to let you go just because you’re the mayor’s son,” he said, warning him.

Tan Hai’s expressions darkened upon hearing his indirect warning.

He laughed and said, ” Why would I do anything? Do I look like a douchebag to you?”

Ye Yijun didn’t respond to his words and simply clinked his cocktail glass with him before walking away.

Tan Hai gritted his teeth to see his nonchalant attitude, ” This brat....”

Both of them are from the same year, yet Ye Yijun acts like a superior and makes them look like a douchebag in front of girls. He is just trying to get along with the new girl, what’s the big deal?

–

Ye Yijun walked away from Tan Hai and was looking at the entrance, waiting for Xu Nuan to arrive. He wasn’t planning to attend this party but when he heard that she was coming, he decided to come along as well.

He just didn’t want to be alone among everyone. Since he is the only one she speaks to, he decided to come to the party to accompany her for the sake of their sort of friendship.

However, his thoughts were interrupted when the door of the private room opened and the girl that everyone was waiting, entered. His mouth was parted in surprise to see Xu Nuan, who was wearing a black, off-shoulder dress.

The dress was hugging her body perfectly, revealing her hidden curves and was reaching to her thighs. The flowy black fabric was attached to the back of the dress around her waist and was covering her bottom area that was reaching to her knees.

On top of the short black dress, the black high heels were making her stand out even more since it was the first time for him to see her dressed this way. She was wearing her chestnut brown hair down and was wearing simple silver earrings that were going well with her outfit.

The highlight of her look was the maroon-colored lipstick that she was wearing. The dark maroon color was flattering her pale complexion and black dress.

Not only him but the other girls in the room were also awed to see Xu Nuan dressed like this. They weren’t expecting her to be dressed like this since she never wears short dresses to college.

She always wears casual jeans, tops or shirts. In the whole class, she was the only one who never puts effort while dressing up for college.

–

Xu Nuan scratched the back of her neck awkwardly upon seeing everyone staring at her with their mouths open. She wasn’t feeling strange when she dressed into this outfit but seeing their expressions, she was feeling embarrassed.

‘Did I do too much?’

It’s been a long time since she attended any parties like this, so while getting ready, she has put in a little more effort than usual. However, she wasn’t expecting to get this kind of reaction from everyone.

After a few minutes of awkward silence, Tan Hai approached her with a wide grin, ” Xu Nuan, you look fabulous. Come in, everyone was waiting for you.” He said while trying to place a hand behind her back but she held his hand, making him stare at her in confusion.

She didn’t say anything and just gave him a look before walking away, to greet other people.

A frown appeared on his face upon getting a cold response from her. It was him who arranged this party and was doing all this for her, but she was treating him coldly as if they’re strangers.

Why did she accept the invitation of the party if she was planning to act this way to him?

He scoffed seeing her greeting everyone with a warm smile and clenched his fists tightly.

‘Hah! Trying to play hard to get? I will also see till when you can continue this game of yours.’

–

“Xu Nuan, you look so different. Why don’t you dress up like this at college? Xingren was nowhere near to your natural beauty, you only put on a little bit of makeup and you’re already glowing.” One of the girls commented.

” I can’t believe that Xingren was such a bitch when she always tries to look good in front of us.” Another girl said.

Xu Nuan pursed her lips as she doesn’t want to start a debate about that issue. When Xingren was on top, they all used to act like her sidekicks, and now when she is being hated, they aren’t leaving a chance to gossip about her.

” Dressing up is one’s personal choice. If Xingren used to dress up prettily, it was her choice, meanwhile, I am too bothered to dress up for college when all I have to do is attend classes and study. It’s too bothersome. Thank you for your concern though.” Xu Nuan with a smile, trying to be as polite as she can.

However, her words already pissed off the girls, who always dress up prettily for college. What? Did she say anything wrong?

Ye Yijun, who was standing on the corner, couldn’t help but chuckle upon seeing the awkward faces of everyone after hearing her response. She was trying hard to make friends but if she continued to speak this way, she is gonna lose some points.

” Ah, Xu Nuan. I heard that you have a boyfriend? Did he come along with you today?” One of the girls asked to break the awkward silence.

Tan Hai, who was staring at Xu Nuan with a frown, became curious upon hearing the question. He also heard that she has a boyfriend but didn’t believe the rumors.

‘So what if she has a boyfriend? It can’t be better than him!’
