144: You are standing on the Shen family’s hotel!
Xu Yao insisted on sitting at the same table with Gu Jun.
If she can't sit at the same table, she won't attend the class reunion.
It wasn't that she was being deliberately difficult. Everyone else in the box was sitting like that, except for Wen Yiyi and Chen Yan. Xu Yao had spotted two couples in her class who had been dating since high school sitting like that as well. As for the other unfamiliar faces, there was no need to mention them. Since Xu Yao didn't recognize them, they must have been "family members" brought by her classmates... If everyone was doing this, why should she and Gu Jun be separated?
This arrangement is not necessarily intended to bully Xu Yao, it is 100% intended to bully Gu Jun!
Before Chen Yan said anything, someone came to intimidate Gu Jun in order to please him.
Under Xu Yao's insistence, the classmate who arranged the tables finally coordinated the seats so that Xu Yao and Gu Jun could sit together.
Someone joked: "Xu Yao, I haven't seen you for a few years and your temper is still the same!"
Xu Yao turned to look at the other person, "Why, you men are only allowed to remain young until death, but we women are not allowed to keep our temper?"
Xu Yao said this playfully, and everyone laughed, and the tense atmosphere eased.
Some students even reflected: "After all, Xu Yao hadn't done anything outrageous. Everyone initially distanced themselves from her because someone posted about her family's bankruptcy in the group chat, saying she might ask for money." But when did Xu Yao actually ask for money?
There are all kinds of people in a class, some want to be a public relations strategist for Shen Yan, and some are not interested in rich people. The latter are willing to talk to Xu Yao and Gu Jun.
Chatting about work and school, the unfamiliarity of not seeing each other for several years quickly faded, and Xu Yao re-integrated into her classmates. Not all of Xu Yao's classmates were second-generation rich. In their twenties, they were working very hard in the workplace. Knowing that Gu Jun was a programmer, some of them also complained to him about working overtime.
There were also people who just couldn't bear to see Xu Yao living comfortably. Wen Yiyi gave a hint with her eyes, and one of her lackeys jumped out and asked Xu Yao:
"Xu Yao, I heard that your mother married Yiyi's father? Yiyi is with Shen Yan now. Isn't it awkward for the four of you to meet like this?"
Before Xu Yao could say anything, Gu Jun suddenly smiled: "It's not that bad. The feeling of meeting your current and ex-boyfriends is like wearing the same clothes. Only the parties involved know the feeling best."
puff--
How does the saying go? It's not a big deal to wear the same clothes as the one who is ugly will be embarrassed. How did Gu Jun get the confidence to think that Xu Yao was the one who was not embarrassed?
However, if we put aside prejudice and only look at their appearance, it is indeed more pleasing to the eye when Xu Yao and Gu Jun stand together. They look so well matched.
No, no, I was almost led astray by Gu Jun. No matter how good-looking you are, it’s a waste if you can’t monetize your looks. Gu Jun’s family background is too far behind Shen Yan’s. How can a poor student who grew up in a shantytown compare with the Shen family in South City!
Wen Yiyi's lackey curled his lips and said, "Senior Gu was very cool when he was in school, but now he speaks in a very humorous way. It's a bit of a waste for you to be a programmer. You should be an internet celebrity like Xu Yao and make money so as not to waste the looks and eloquence given by God."
"Thanks for your advice, that's exactly what I was thinking. After all, influencers really do make a lot of money."
Gu Jun didn't look annoyed at all, and the troublemaker was like a punch on cotton.
On the surface, it seems that whoever is the most shameless is invincible, but in essence, they are confident and are not afraid of these little tricks that cannot be shown on the public. Gu Jun is two or three years older than Xu Yao and other classmates, and has experienced the life and death of starting a business, so he is much more mature mentally.
Because of his maturity, Gu Jun could ignore these minor provocations.
Isn’t this just like children playing house?
Xu Yao had no idea that Gu Jun was so eloquent. She looked at him with surprise, and even a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Xu Yao's expression hurt Chen Yan. It was the first time Chen Yan looked at Gu Jun straight in the eye since Xu Yao and Gu Jun entered the box.
Chen Yan asked Gu Jun in a voice that was neither light nor heavy: "Is it interesting to talk like this? Inappropriate humor is equivalent to sensationalism."
Chen Yan directly confronted Gu Jun.
Gu Jun and the others didn't care, but he was not very careful with Shen Yan: "What do you think is boring? I don't mind. If you feel embarrassed, don't come to such a party next time."
A strong smell of gunpowder filled the air between the two of them.
Gu Jun doesn't think much of Chen Yan.
Gu Jun hated Chen Yan's lack of respect and hated the Shen family's disrespect for Xu Yao.
Shen Yan, a rich second-generation who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, can only see the sky that the Shen family can cover. He is immersed in the glory of his family's past and doesn't know that the world has undergone earth-shaking changes!
Shen Yan felt like a victim. It was Xu Yao who didn't cherish their years of relationship and insisted on breaking off the engagement, then marrying Gu Jun, who was born in a shantytown. It was Xu Yao who first trampled on his and the Shen family's reputation. These people targeted Gu Jun not because of anything Shen Yan said, but because Xu Yao couldn't understand why she brought Gu Jun to the class reunion.
Since you are here, just accept it.
A class reunion is a miniature version of society, where putting down the weak and praising the strong is the norm!
Sure enough, some people couldn't help but support Chen Yan.
"Gu Jun, it's pointless for you to talk like that. Although you and Shen Yan are both 'family members', Shen Yan already knew most of our classmates back in high school, and you were the latecomer. If only one of you could come to our class reunion, it would definitely be Shen Yan!"
"That's right, Chen Yan didn't provoke you two today, you were too harsh in your words."
"The place where you are standing is still the Chen Yan family hotel!"
There is a lackey leading the charge, and the other lackeys are not willing to lag behind.
These people had not asked Xu Yao for any favors, so they were not afraid of offending Xu Yao at all, and naturally spoke to Gu Jun without restraint.
If Gu Jun hadn't been secretly pinching Xu Yao's hand, Xu Yao would have almost overturned the table.
——What kind of crappy class reunion is this? Are you bullying her husband? Do you think she’s dead?
If Xu Yao didn't want to meet Teacher Li, she wouldn't even bother attending this class reunion!
Xu Yao couldn't bear it any longer, so she took Gu Jun's hand and was about to leave. Suddenly, the voice of the classmate who was receiving guests in the hall rang out at the door:
"Look, who's here?"
The receptionist was talking loudly, and everyone's attention was drawn to him and they saw Teacher Li.
Teacher Li has only taught this class for one year, but his prestige is extremely high.
At that time, there were two students in the class who were tired of studying. It was Teacher Li who talked to them repeatedly and finally corrected their study ideas. Later, both of them were admitted to good universities. There was a student whose parents were divorced and fought with each other and ignored their children. Teacher Li invited the student to his home to eat for half a month. For students whose families were poor and had difficulty in going to school, Teacher Li helped them apply for tuition reduction or exemption from the school and tried various ways to encourage students to continue their studies.
There are so many students who have benefited from Teacher Li, and Gu Jun is just one of them.
As soon as Teacher Li showed up, the lackeys who had just targeted Gu Jun didn't dare to say anything.
They knew that Teacher Li hated this kind of behavior the most.
Everyone's focus shifted from talking nonsense to running up to Teacher Li to introduce themselves. They all talked at once, wanting Teacher Li to know how they were doing.
Teacher Li was so popular that neither Xu Yao nor Gu Jun could get close to her.
Wen Yiyi had been acting arrogantly today and hadn't personally dealt with Xu Yao and the others. But now, she couldn't help but gather around Teacher Li and asked, "Teacher Li, do you still remember me? I'm Wen Yiyi, and this is my fiancé, Chen Yan..."
Wen Yiyi was introducing everyone when Teacher Li saw Gu Jun at a glance.
"Gu Jun?"
Teacher Li pushed past several students and strode quickly to Gu Jun, shaking his hand excitedly. "Principal Tao told me that the financial aid fund you set up at school has helped a lot of students! I've been wanting to meet you for a while, but I was afraid to disturb you at work. I didn't expect to see you here today."
