We chatted casually with the driver, and soon we arrived at our destination.

Looking at the skyscrapers in front of him, Lin Xun couldn't help but sigh. "A restaurant is set up like a company, with so many floors. How can they manage to keep up?"

Thinking of this, he thought of his own family; he was actually a rich second-generation.

Wow, my parents hid it for so many years and I didn't even find out. I'm such a... my parents are such good actors!

Without thinking much, Lin Xun was about to go inside.

"Looking for Brother!"

Just then, a surprised voice came from behind.

Lin Xun turned around and was pleasantly surprised to see who it was: "Erpang, you just arrived too?"

Li Erpang was his high school classmate and deskmate for a year; the two were also best friends.

Li Erpang is as fat as his name suggests.

"Oh my god, no wonder I had to take two buses to get to the Forest Royal Court, which is so far away," Li Erpang complained.

Lin Xun smiled and said, "I heard that Forest Royal Court is the biggest restaurant in Liangcheng. It's quite nice to be able to have a meal here."

Li Erpang chuckled and said, "That makes sense. We could never afford to eat here in our entire lives."

As he spoke, he secretly leaned closer to Lin Xun and whispered, "I heard that the things inside are really expensive, especially that ham. A small slice of it is worth several years' worth of my living expenses! What do you mean ham is so expensive? We always add ham to our instant noodles!"

Lin Xun's lips twitched; he wanted to tell the other party that this ham was not that kind of ham.

"Oh, who cares about that! Let's go in, or we'll be late."

Lin Xun led Li Erpang into the restaurant.

Just as Li Erpang said, the prices here are very high. I heard that we were able to book a private room here thanks to the squad leader.

Their class monitor is a rich second-generation heir; his family owns several chain hotels and is very wealthy.

Looking at the luxurious decorations inside the restaurant, Lin Xun and Li Erpang unconsciously felt a sense of restraint.

"Um... Brother Xun, when we split the bill later, remember to support your chubby brother!" Li Erpang said in a trembling voice.

Lin Xun said speechlessly, "Look at you, so pathetic."

He was initially a little unsure, but when he thought of his family, he suddenly felt that he could probably afford a meal.

The two politely asked the front desk where the private rooms were.

Unexpectedly, the receptionist was incredibly welcoming and immediately used a walkie-talkie to call another receptionist to come and lead them there.

Lin Xun had a strange feeling that the receptionist's eyes were constantly scanning him, as if she were looking at some kind of treasure with a wolfish glint in her eye!

Holy crap! Is my charm really that amazing?

After Lin Xun left with the receptionist, the front desk suddenly pulled out a walkie-talkie and excitedly announced, "Attention all departments! The young master has entered the hotel! He is currently en route to VIP room 709!"

"Received! My European abalone and lobster royal meal will arrive in five minutes!"

"Received! The 1982 Lafite is ready!"

"Roger! High-quality servers are ready!"

"Received! The manager has been notified, and he's on his way with the plane!"

"..."

At this moment, a group of students had gathered in VIP room 709. After the college entrance examination, they were all very lively and had completely shed the repression they felt at school.

Released after serving time!

"Hey! Lin Xun, Erpang! You're five minutes late! You'll have to drink three cups as punishment!"

Upon seeing Lin Xun and his companion, some classmates teased them.

Lin Xun and the other man smiled awkwardly and echoed his sentiments.

The private room was large enough to accommodate forty or fifty people. Lin Xun looked around and quickly found the person he was looking for in the crowd.

A hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes as he walked towards the other person.

"Hey, hey, look, Xiao Qing, Lin Xun is coming!"

The girls who were chatting suddenly stopped and looked at Lin Xun who was walking over. One of the girls nudged another girl with her elbow.

The girl was very beautiful, undoubtedly the most beautiful among the girls present. She had long, black hair that flowed freely, and her delicate features were adorned with light makeup, making her look as pure as a lotus flower.

The girl's name is Su Qing. She is the class's academic representative and has a good relationship with Lin Xun. The two often study together in the classroom and supervise each other. They are the class's recognized couple.

Lin Xun and she grew closer that year. They often went out together, discussed their studies, and even ate together. They developed feelings for each other, but with the college entrance exam approaching, neither of them confessed.

Lin Xun stopped in front of Su Qing and looked at her: "You look very beautiful tonight."

Normally, makeup is prohibited at school, so everyone goes out without makeup. But tonight, Su Qing is so beautiful that he's a little smitten.

"Oh~"

Several girls immediately started to tease them.

Su Qing smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, you look very handsome today too."

Lin Xun smiled and said, "Can we take a walk together after dinner?"

Before, he had never thought about dating because his only goal was to get into university. Now that the college entrance exam was over, it was time for him to start thinking about it. Adolescent feelings can come and go in an instant, and some people, if missed, can never be found again in a lifetime.

So, he plans to confess his feelings tonight!

"Hey! Handsome Lin! Who doesn't know about your relationship? Are you planning to confess your feelings?" A girl with a high ponytail looked at Lin Xun teasingly.

"Gao Li, don't joke around!" Su Qing frowned and glared at her.

The other girls all laughed.

Lin Xun smiled and said, "Even if I confess my feelings, she has to agree first!"

"Yo yo yo!"

The girls started to cheer.

The others watched this scene with smiles on their faces. Although some of them had their own thoughts, they did not intend to reveal them to anyone.

After all, some unrequited love is something that needs to be kept hidden.

Hearing the crowd's jeers, Su Qing's face showed an unnatural expression. She looked at Lin Xun with an apologetic look in her eyes.

Lin Xun, who knew Su Qing very well, felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

"I'm sorry, Lin Xun, I can't agree to that."

Gaa!

Everyone fell silent, watching this scene with some surprise.

Lin Xun's face stiffened, then he forced a smile and said, "May I ask why?"

"I'm sorry, Lin Xun, Qingqing has already agreed to be my girlfriend!"

At that moment, a relaxed voice rang out.

Everyone looked over and saw a young man walk into the private room, followed by a middle-aged woman.

The women recognized her; she was their high school homeroom teacher.

The boy was Qin Hao, the class monitor and the initiator of the graduation banquet.

Lin Xun looked at Su Qing in disbelief: "Is what he said true?"

Su Qing pursed her lips, looked at Lin Xun with pity and sympathy in her eyes, then stood up and walked to Qin Hao's side.

The latter smiled slightly, took her hand, and said to everyone, "Listen up, everyone. Today, in front of our homeroom teacher and all of you, I hereby officially announce that Su Qing is officially my girlfriend!"

"Clap clap clap!"

Everyone immediately started clapping. Although it was a little awkward, clapping was the right thing to do.

Lin Xun stared blankly at the two holding hands.
