599: Chapter 600 Xiao Chen’s Class Reunion_1 599: Chapter 600 Xiao Chen’s Class Reunion_1 Hai Xi seemed afraid that Xiao Chen wouldn’t attend the reunion, so he specially sent someone to pick him up.
The driver, in a Mercedes worth millions, acted as if he owned the entire world, as if the car belonged to him.
“Don’t dirty the car, it’s worth over a million.
Even selling you wouldn’t cover the cost!”
“If Young Master Xi hadn’t asked me to pick you up, do you think you’d be fit to sit in such a car?”
After rambling on for quite a while, the driver finally opened the door and let Xiao Chen into the car.
Xiao Chen sneered in his heart, sure enough, the subordinates are just like their boss; this driver must have picked up his ways from Hai Xi.
He was too lazy to waste words with this kind of person.
So he simply put on his headphones and started listening to music.
Venus Hotel, the best in Blue Sea, mainly because it’s expensive, but of course, the taste isn’t bad either.
This place is basically where the affluent hold their gatherings.
For a class reunion to be held here seemed somewhat discordant.
But it wasn’t strange since Hai Xi was footing the bill.
Hai Xi was the third young master of the Hai Family.
And the Hai Family was a first-class clan in the north.
Even if the per capita cost here was over ten thousand, it was just a trifling amount to him.
Of course, not every one of Xiao Chen’s classmates was wealthy.
Even in that top high school, there were those who didn’t do well.
Of course, “not well” is relative; the least successful among their high school peers still made over ten thousand a month, which wasn’t much.
But it was more than enough in third or fourth-tier cities.
At the hotel entrance, several men and women in formal attire were chatting while welcoming arriving classmates.
Those who came today were mostly students from Blue Sea.
Or those who were in Blue Sea on business and happened to be around, so they were invited to join as well.
In Xiao Chen’s class, there were almost sixty people, but actually, there were only about a dozen from Blue Sea.
But looking at the turn out today, there seemed to be some unfamiliar faces, probably Hai Xi’s friends or classmates.
Instead of calling it a reunion, it seemed more like an opportunity for Hai Xi to flaunt his wealth.
“Xiao Chen!”
Upon seeing Xiao Chen alight from the Mercedes, several people couldn’t help but show their surprise.
They had no idea that Xiao Chen was the husband of the chairwoman of Xinmeng Group, nor did they know he was the Family Head of the Xiao Family from Jiangnan.
As for being the Boss of Xiao Corporation, the number one War God, the Mo Sect Master, or King Yama, that was even more beyond their knowledge.
These people only knew that after Ye Menghua dumped him, Xiao Chen dropped out of school, and they had no idea where he went after that.
But seeing Xiao Chen in clothes with not even a designer label and old Capital City cloth shoes on his feet, they looked down on him.
“That car belongs to Young Master Xi, right?”
“That’s right!”
Xiao Chen nodded.
“I knew it, how could you ever afford such a luxurious car!”
A bespectacled man said coldly.
This person had been Hai Xi’s lackey back in high school, and he was still acting like one.
“Alright, enough of that, Xiao Chen, let’s go inside,” said a very demure-looking girl as she walked over and took Xiao Chen by the hand.
“Lin Ying, why are you being so nice to this guy, he’s just a nobody,” the bespectacled man said with disdain.
Lin Ying, the class monitor from back in the day.
She was good at her studies, good-looking, and after graduating from high school, she was admitted to Capital City University, later going abroad to study.
After coming back to the country, she set up her own company, catching the smartphone boom, and is now quite successful.
In the domestic mobile phone market, their phones have always been in the top three.
Now, they are starting to explore the international market.
She is definitely considered a true success story.
Lin Ying was kind to Xiao Chen because, back in high school, Xiao Chen had saved her.
Yes, saved, not helped.
At that time, an incident occurred in Capital City where three female students were assaulted and murdered, their bodies dumped in secluded grassy areas.
That time, Lin Ying also ran into trouble.
Luckily, Xiao Chen happened to pass by and saved her.
Because of that incident, Xiao Chen even got stabbed, and to this day, the scar is still on his body.
Lin Ying had always been grateful to Xiao Chen, so when she saw Xiao Chen being bullied, she stood up for him.
“You got married?”
Lin Ying noticed the ring on Xiao Chen’s hand.
“Yeah!”
Xiao Chen nodded, “My wife is a very kind girl!”
“She must be really happy then.
Those men at the reunion all sneakily put away their rings, still hoping for a stroke of luck with the ladies.
You, on the other hand, wear it openly.
Are you trying to let us girls know to keep our distance from you?”
Lin Ying said with a smile.
“Even if I didn’t wear the ring, I’m afraid no one would be after me, right?”
Xiao Chen touched his nose and smiled.
“You’re being too modest!
You are a good man!”
Lin Ying said.
“Is this you giving me a ‘nice guy’ card?”
Xiao Chen said with a laugh.
The two of them chatted and laughed their way up to the eighth floor of the hotel, where the class reunion was being held.
Many people had already arrived, quite a few of whom were unfamiliar faces.
But when everyone saw Lin Ying, they couldn’t help but look over here, casting admiring glances.
Lin Ying was beautiful, intelligent, and had her own career.
No one would dislike such a woman.
Moreover, she was still single to this day.
A successful 26-year-old single woman was bound to have many admirers.
“And who do I see!
Xiao Chen!
The prominent figure of our class!
Back in the day, so awesome, always ranking first in the exams!
Di Tianjiao, Ye Menghua, and Lin Ying all orbited around him.
It’s just too bad that he was too arrogant, and after a fall, especially after Ye Menghua dumped him, he became dispirited.”
“I heard he went to the military, hey, Xiao Chen, what kind of soldier were you, a logistic pig farmer?”
Laughter erupted among the crowd.
To these people, joining the military was clearly not something to be proud of.
In their eyes, only those with poor academic performance would join the military.
But Xiao Chen didn’t see it that way.
Being a soldier was always the proudest part of his life.
“Monitor Lin, you’re really faithful.
Haven’t gotten married for so many years, don’t tell me you’ve been waiting for this pig farmer?”
The bespectacled Chen Bin sarcastically remarked.
“Shut up!”
At this point, Hai Xi arrived, casting a cold glance at Chen Bin, “Lin Ying is my woman, why would she ever like a loser like Xiao Chen?”
Hai Xi was very direct, not bothering to hide any contempt and calling Xiao Chen a “loser” outright.
There was no consideration for Xiao Chen’s face at all.
“Hai Xi, I have never said I would marry you!”
Lin Ying said with a frown.
“Heh, does it matter what you say?
Unless you don’t want your company to continue operating.”
Hai Xi sneered, “Your company’s doing well, but in Blue Sea, without support from our Hai Family, your company would quickly be crushed by the March Group.
Do you really think it’s all your own ability?”
“Isn’t that statement a bit too much?
I heard that at the beginning of Lin Ying’s entrepreneurship, your Hai Family and the March Group didn’t hesitate to suppress her.
Claiming credit for yourself, don’t you find it laughable?”
Xiao Chen casually remarked.
“Shut up!
If you want to find a job, you’d better watch your mouth, or else I’ll make sure you can’t get by in Blue Sea, not even a security guard or cleaner job.
Don’t believe me?
Just try it!”
Hai Xi shouted.
