But my heart was still stirred to some extent.

When I was desperate to redeem the jade bracelet, I asked him for help, but he said he couldn't come up with much cash.

But later at the auction, in order to please Jiang Yi, he spent over 100 million.

Now, to celebrate his alma mater's anniversary, he has made a generous donation of 100 million yuan.

So it's not that he doesn't have money, he just doesn't want to spend it on me, even if I'm just borrowing it, he won't agree.

I sneered inwardly as I watched him walk onto the stage, his smug demeanor only filled with disdain.

To my surprise, Su Shenglin, as a special guest, joined the school leaders in presenting honors to the second batch of outstanding alumni.

I don't know if Su Shenglin did it on purpose or if it was just a coincidence—he just happened to be the one who awarded Gu Yanqing the honor!

As I sat in the audience watching this scene, the injustice and indignation in my heart suddenly subsided!

Although we were quite far apart, I could still clearly see from the big screen that Gu Yanqing's originally spirited demeanor completely collapsed the moment he took the group photo, turning him into a ruthless and cunning figure.

The phone rang again; it was Li Yunwei again.

She gloated: [Was this arranged by Mr. Su on purpose? Is he trying to vent your anger? Gu Yanqing donated less than him, yet he was treated like a guest and awarded honors—his status is clearly much lower! Hahaha, I wonder how traumatized Gu Yanqing is right now!]

After reading the information, although I knew it was immoral to laugh at it, since I, as an alumnus, had only donated a mere 100,000 yuan, which wasn't even enough to make the list, I still couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

At that moment, I suddenly felt relieved about what Xu Qianning had said.

What blind date? It certainly wasn't something Su Shenglin did willingly.

After the school leaders' speeches, there were many song and dance performances.

Each college had one or two performances, and alumni also spontaneously organized performances as a gift. The lively and grand celebration continued until the banquet began.

We all left the venue and then re-entered about half an hour later.

At this point, the seats in the stadium had been removed and replaced with large round tables.

Guided by the school volunteers, we found our seats according to our respective colleges.

The school leaders gave brief speeches, after which the banquet began, with music, dance, and a variety of wonderful performances taking place on stage.

Chen Wanzhen and I sat at the same table, both of us watching the performance on stage with great interest. One of the models in the fashion show happened to be one of my designs.

Suddenly, someone patted my shoulder hard. "Jiang Wan, look who I've brought to you!"

I turned around and saw Xu Qianning at a glance.

The next second, she saw Gu Yanqing standing next to Xu Qianning.

My expression changed drastically, and all I wanted to do in that instant was kick Xu Qianning out of the solar system.

"Senior Gu, come, sit here!" Xu Qianning acted like she knew him well, pushing aside a classmate next to me and pulling Gu Yanqing to sit down.
