She smiled, extended her hand to shake his, and said, "It was a pleasure working with you. I look forward to working with you again."

The two people were having a pleasant conversation in the coffee shop, unaware that someone was watching them from not far away.
"Zhou Qing, are you sure you're not mistaken? Is that really Xu Milu? She doesn't quite look like her."
The stylishly dressed woman adjusted her sunglasses, her face full of confusion:
"I remember Xu Milu being thin and small, and not very talkative. How come she has changed so much in just four or five years?"
"She's struck it rich! You didn't see how arrogant she was when she came to our store to buy a car. So what if she has a little money? Who knows where she got it from?"
Zhou Qing, her face full of jealousy, angrily picked up her coffee cup and took a sip, forgetting the temperature of the coffee and almost burning her mouth.
“I almost lost my job last year, and it was all because of her. She bullied my old classmates just because she had some money. It’s no wonder no one invited her to the class reunion.”
The woman was somewhat surprised and covered her mouth, asking the man sitting next to her:
"No way? Zheng Xin, you guys are so mean. She's a classmate, and you didn't even invite her to your class reunion today? I remember she was a pretty good student back then. Didn't she go to Sichuan or Chongqing later?"
The man drinking coffee smiled:
"Hey, I just don't remember! There's always someone who doesn't fit in in any class. I remember something happened to her family back then, and she wasn't very talkative. A bunch of us boys would tease her, putting glue in her hair and red ink on her chair. Later, she told the teacher, and then we stopped playing with her."
"Huh? Why were you so annoying back then? Everyone says that when a boy bullies a girl, it means he likes her. You didn't like her, did you?"
The woman in sunglasses giggled and playfully nudged him.
"Then hurry up and go talk to someone! This is a great opportunity. It's a class reunion today, so hurry up and confess your feelings!"
Zhou Qing chimed in, "Yeah, everyone says 'class reunion is a chance to meet classmates.' I see her family is doing pretty well now, why don't you two just get together!"
It was just a joke, but Zheng Xin actually took it seriously when he saw Xu Milu laughing and talking to Jin Buhuan. He confidently tossed his hair and strode over.
Zhou Qing and the woman in sunglasses both looked on with glee, as if they were watching a spectacle unfold.
