Chapter 187 Reunion with an Old Friend



Are you going to the graduation dinner tonight?

Chen Jiayi sat in the car, fastened her seatbelt, and turned to stare at Shen Jialiang, asking a question.

Shen Jialiang said calmly, "No, you go ahead. I'll come pick you up when it's over!"

After all, it was Chen Jiayi's graduation party, so it wasn't appropriate for Shen Jialiang to attend.

Chen Jiayi didn't insist that Shen Jialiang accompany her. In fact, if Shen Jialiang had come with her, Chen Jiayi would have felt a bit of pressure.

After all, Shen Jialiang is a professor, and sometimes Chen Jiayi feels a lot of pressure from him.

They're a married couple, so they all feel this way. Not to mention Chen Jiayi's classmates—wouldn't they feel immense pressure about Shen Jialiang's arrival?

At the evening class reunion, Chen Jiayi originally planned to have dinner and leave, but after dinner, someone suggested going to sing karaoke.

Nowadays, nightclubs are everywhere in Haicheng, but no one has ever been to a place like this.

Chen Jiayi went twice with her parents, but she wasn't interested and hasn't gone much since.

During their university years, Chen Jiayi and Chi Mengqiu had the best relationship.

After all, the two were roommates, even though Chen Jiayi moved out later.

However, he was in the most contact with Chi Mengqiu, and they often spent time together during and after class.

Chen Jiayi spent more time with Chi Mengqiu than with Shen Jialiang.

After dinner, a small number of people decided to go home and not go to the nightclub.

Chen Jiayi originally wanted to go home, but Chi Mengqiu said she was curious about what nightclubs were like and wanted to go see one, so she asked Chen Jiayi to go with her.

Chen Jiayi learned about Li Mo this year mainly from Chi Mengqiu.

There were no convenient means of communication at that time.

Chi Mengqiu's older brother, Chi Yan, is pursuing Li Mo. Sometimes when he writes letters to Chi Mengqiu or makes phone calls, he will mention Li Mo in passing.

Chi Mengqiu then relayed the message to Chen Jiayi.

In essence, Chi Mengqiu was acting as a messenger, relaying messages between the two.

When Chen Jiayi heard that Chi Yan and Li Mo were getting married, she was indeed worried about Chi Mengqiu going to the nightclub alone. Although she was going with her classmates, Chen Jiayi had been at school for so long and didn't really know them very well.

It's not exactly unfamiliar, but as for being familiar... Chen Jiayi couldn't guarantee the character of the person.

So, Chen Jiayi accompanied Chi Mengqiu to the nightclub with their classmates.

This nightclub is famous in Haicheng for its beautiful women, great songs, and excellent service; it's also a place where people spend their money.

There is no shortage of wealthy people in the crowd.

Since we've already come to this place, some people might be very curious, or perhaps they're itching to order a couple of female singers.

So, a huge private room was filled with rows of female singers.

Chen Jiayi didn't take it seriously at first, but frowned and decided to leave with Chi Mengqiu in a while.

However, she spotted a familiar figure among the crowd.

Upon seeing this figure, a hint of surprise flashed in Chen Jiayi's eyes.

Clearly, the other person had also seen her.

Li Yuzhu was taken aback when she saw Chen Jiayi.

She never expected to run into Chen Jiayi. At this moment, her situation was seen by someone she disliked, and Li Yuzhu instinctively wanted to run away.

As a result, one of Chen Jiayi's male classmates tagged her.

For a moment, Li Yuzhu didn't know whether she should leave or not.

The mother, who was leading the singers to the room, gave Li Yuzhu a fierce look. Li Yuzhu immediately dared not utter a sound and silently walked to the guest's side.

Seeing that Chen Jiayi was frowning, Chi Mengqiu couldn't help but ask her.

"What's wrong?"

Chi Mengqiu's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but the private room was very quiet at the moment, with no one else's voice except for her mother's.

Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to Chen Jiayi.

Li Yuzhu's heart was in her throat.

She was afraid that Chen Jiayi would expose her identity at this moment, and even more afraid that Chen Jiayi would recognize her.

Fortunately, Chen Jiayi seemed not to recognize her. She shook her head and mumbled something.

Although Li Yuzhu couldn't hear what Chen Jiayi was saying, she kept her eyes glued to Chen Jiayi's mouth, afraid that she might say something.

Fortunately, Chen Jiayi didn't seem to say anything to her, because Li Yuzhu noticed that the people around Chen Jiayi weren't looking at her.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When she sat down next to the guest and saw how shy he was, Li Yuzhu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I don't have to spend time with that old man tonight...

only……

Li Yuzhu felt a mix of emotions, but she smiled and kept drinking with everyone.

Chen Jiayi watched this scene and felt only boredom and pathetic.

Chen Jiayi still remembers clearly how arrogant Li Yuzhu was back then.

She still remembered how Li Yuzhu, Ding Haowen, and Ding Xiang looked so smug in front of her before she died.

Li Yuzhu is now working as a hostess in a nightclub, but what about Ding Xiang?

Chen Jiayi was curious, not because she felt sorry for Dingxiang, but because she was worried that Dingxiang would suddenly appear and be as annoying as Ding Haowen.

Although Chen Jiayi was very curious about Dingxiang, she knew it wasn't the right time to talk to Li Yuzhu.

Feeling that it was about time, Chen Jiayi pulled Chi Mengqiu and prepared to leave.

Chi Mengqiu planned to go to the restroom and then leave.

Chen Jiayi nodded and went with Chi Mengqiu.

Li Yuzhu had been keeping an eye on Chen Jiayi and Chi Mengqiu.

Upon seeing Chen Jiayi and Chi Mengqiu preparing to leave, she quickly stood up.

"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

Li Yuzhu had something to say to Chen Jiayi.

After she left, Chen Jiayi, who had originally left, somehow returned and stood at the door.

When she saw Li Yuzhu, she only glanced at her lightly.

The question Li Yuzhu originally wanted to ask was suddenly cut off, like a sausage that had been snapped in half, with the remaining half wrapped up.

Her face turned pale, and she finally spoke through gritted teeth.

"Chen Jiayi, aren't you very smug?"

Chen Jiayi: "?"

A hint of suspicion flashed in her eyes as she stared at Li Yuzhu for a long while.

At this moment, Li Yuzhu had her makeup done beautifully and was wearing pretty clothes.

But for some reason, Li Yuzhu always felt inferior to Chen Jiayi.

Chen Jiayi spoke slowly. Li Yuzhu originally thought Chen Jiayi was going to criticize her, but she didn't expect her to just speak in a flat tone.

"Excuse me."

Seeing Chen Jiayi like this, Li Yuzhu was at a loss.

No, what does Chen Jiayi mean by this?

Chen Jiayi glanced at Li Yuzhu, then spoke in a flat tone.

"You've always fantasized that I'm your love rival or something, so why are you here?"

If a man truly loves a woman, he would never agree to her doing this.

But Ding Haowen agreed.

Although Chen Jiayi didn't know what had happened between Ding Haowen and Li Yuzhu, she immediately assumed it was because they were broke.

Chen Jiayi's sixth sense was right after all.

Li Yuzhu was sold because her family was broke.
