Chapter 230: Exploding the Friends Circle



4:30 in the afternoon.

In an office of a state-owned enterprise in Jinling City, Hong Zhiwei finished the work at hand, then leaned back in his chair, looking at the ceiling with unfocused eyes.

He is heartbroken!

Nearly a year after graduation, the beautiful love in student days finally succumbed to time and distance.

Hong Zhiwei is 23 years old this year. He graduated from a prestigious university last year. His girlfriend is an alumnus of his class. He won her over when she was a sophomore. The two spent more than two years of sweet campus life.

Unfortunately, after graduating from college, this loving couple had to separate because of work.

With the help of his family, Hong Zhiwei successfully entered a state-owned enterprise in his hometown of Jinling City, while his girlfriend passed the exam to become a civil servant in a small county in her hometown.

Both jobs are very good, and it is unrealistic to ask either to give up to accommodate the other.

After all, although their family conditions were decent and they had a house and a car, their family conditions were not good enough to not care about these two jobs.

At that time, both of them knew in their hearts that this relationship would end sooner or later.

But the result was no miracle.

Separated by a distance of more than 1,500 kilometers, Hong Zhiwei and his girlfriend's relationship was relatively stable only in the first three months. After half a year of separation, due to not seeing each other for a long time, their circles became increasingly different, and they had fewer and fewer common topics. The previous emotional foundation was almost exhausted, and the two naturally became estranged.

Until two days ago, their relationship finally came to an end.

Although he had been mentally prepared for this, Hong Zhiwei still couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Just when Hong Zhiwei was emptying his mind, the cell phone on his desk suddenly rang. He looked down and found that it was Jiang Feng, his roommate who he got along well with in college, calling.

He immediately adjusted his mood, answered the phone, and said with a joking smile: "The sun is rising from the west today. Master Jiang, who is so busy with all kinds of things, actually has time to call me?"

Almost a year has passed since graduation from university. If we were to say who in the class has changed the most, it would be Jiang Feng. No one in the class would have thought that Jiang Feng, who had excellent grades, would return to his hometown to become a professional matchmaker.

When the news spread in the class group, all the students were shocked.

At that time, at least 99% of the students in the class did not think highly of Jiang Feng as a matchmaker. Even Hong Zhiwei, who had a very good relationship with him, felt that this guy was really daydreaming.

How can a 22-year-old young man who has never had a girlfriend be a matchmaker?

As the saying goes, a young man with no experience is not a good person. Marriage is a major event that can affect a person's life, and most people are unwilling to trust such an inexperienced young man. Even experienced middle-aged men and women will not be trusted if they are not relatives but professional matchmakers with low professional ethics.

But what all the students didn't expect was that Jiang Feng's career as a matchmaker seemed to be on the rise. He earned tens of thousands of dollars in the first month, and his performance got better and better every month. In just less than half a year, he opened a matchmaking company in the provincial capital.

What is unbelievable is that Jiang Feng, the matchmaker, also brought together the big star Xiao Min and Mr. Wang from the Wang Group.

When Xiao Min and Mr. Wang advertised Jiang Feng's matchmaking agency on Weibo, all the classmates were stunned.

Then all the classmates had to admit that Jiang Feng had really become a famous matchmaker in the country and the student who made the most money in the class so far.

Afterwards, the news that the class beauty Tang Anyun went to work at Jiang Feng Matchmaking Agency caused a sensation in the class group.

In short, less than a year after graduating from university, Jiang Feng had already left his classmates far behind and became the most promising student in the class.

"Stop talking nonsense and send me your location. I'm at your Jinling Airport now. We haven't seen each other for almost a year. Let's go out for dinner together tonight." Jiang Feng's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

Hong Zhiwei perked up after hearing this, and sat up straight and said, "Brother Feng, are you kidding? Are you really coming to Jinling?"

Jiang Feng laughed and scolded: "Who has time to joke with you? Hurry up and throw the location over here."

"Brother Feng, why didn't you call me earlier so that I could pick you up." Hong Zhiwei was very happy that his good brother from college called him as soon as he arrived in Jinling.

"I came here by car, so there's no need to bother you to pick me up."

"Fuck, you drove all the way here? And how did you drive to the airport?"

"I arrived in Jinling City yesterday. Just when I wanted to contact you, I had something urgent to do back to Guangxi Province, so I drove directly to the airport to fly back, and then just flew back."

"I see. I'll send you the location right away. When you arrive, I'll be off work."

"Well, I'll hang up now. See you later!"

"See you later!"

An hour later.

Jiang Feng and Hong Zhiwei sat opposite each other by the window in a restaurant.

"Brother, you look very haggard. Is it because your work is not going well, or are you having setbacks in your relationship?" Jiang Feng asked.

"As expected of a great matchmaker, your ability to read people's expressions is truly amazing."

Hong Zhiwei first praised her, then sighed and said, "Qianqian and I broke up the day before yesterday."

Jiang Feng said with some regret: "Is it because of a long-distance relationship?"

Hong Zhiwei shook his head and said, "The main reason is that we don't love each other enough, but we have to admit that this long-distance relationship is indeed the biggest test of our relationship.

Qianqian and I seemed very much in love when we were in school, but since we graduated and have been separated, we have been in different circles and have fewer and fewer common topics.

Moreover, it was impossible for us to give up our jobs to accommodate each other. We saw no hope of being together in the future. Coupled with the gradual fading of our feelings, it was only natural for us to break up.”

Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Distance is indeed unsolvable. Giving up a rare good job to pursue an unknown love is easier said than done."

"Forget it, let's not talk about these unhappy things."

Hong Zhiwei took a sip of tea, and then asked curiously, "Brother Feng, how is your relationship with our class beauty Tang going? Have you won her over?"

Jiang Feng laughed and said, "What kind of love match are you making? Class Flower Tang and I are only suitable to be friends, not lovers, and I already have a girlfriend!"

Hong Zhiwei said with some regret: "In fact, we all know that Class Beauty Tang is interested in you. You two are the most suitable couple in our class. Many of our classmates were optimistic about you two."

Jiang Feng shook his head and said nothing. Of course he knew about this. If he didn't have the cheat, he might really choose to be with Tang Anyun. But after having this magical cheat, knowing that their marriage match value was only over 70 points, he naturally didn't have that intention.

Then, Hong Zhiwei asked again: "Brother Feng, you said you have a girlfriend, I wonder where your sister-in-law is from?"

Jiang Feng took a sip of tea and replied, "She is from Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. She is currently studying in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. She will graduate soon. If everything goes well, she may invite you to her wedding this year!"

Hong Zhiwei's eyes widened: "Fuck, is it so fast?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Since you've made up your mind, then of course the sooner you get married the better."

As they were talking, the waiter started serving the dishes.

The two of them didn't order too many dishes, just two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, a soup, and a few cold dishes. The drink was just simple beer.

After eating a few bites of food and drinking a glass of wine, Hong Zhiwei asked, "Brother Feng, are you here in Jinling City for tourism or business?"

Jiang Feng said: "I am here to do some business. I have a few high-quality clients, so I came out to look around and see if I can find someone suitable for the client."

Hong Zhiwei asked curiously: "Brother Feng, people on the Internet say that you are good at predicting marriages. Is this true or false?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "You will know whether it is true or not if you try it!"

Hong Zhiwei picked up the wine and clinked glasses with Jiang Feng, then said with a smile, "Okay, let's give it a try. Anyway, I'm single now!"

Jiang Feng took a big sip of wine, and then said seriously: "Zhiwei, marriage is not something you can joke about. If I find a partner for you, you will basically have to get married within a year or so. Are you sure you are mentally prepared for marriage?"

Hong Zhiwei thought for a moment and said, "Brother Feng, if you had asked me this question last year, I really wasn't mentally ready to get married. But during this time of separation from Qianqian, I did seriously consider marriage, and I think I'm mentally ready to walk into the marriage hall."

Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Since you have made your decision, I will find a suitable partner for you tomorrow."

Hong Zhiwei laughed and said, "Brother Feng, I asked you to help me find a partner. Am I the first person in our class to try this?"

Jiang Feng laughed and said, "You are indeed the first one."

Hong Zhiwei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he took out his phone and said, "Brother Feng, I have to take a photo and post it on WeChat Moments to show off."

Since he became famous as a matchmaker, Jiang Feng rarely posts on WeChat Moments, but he is not opposed to appearing in his college roommate’s WeChat Moments.

So Jiang Feng cooperated with him and took a few photos.

Soon, Hong Zhiwei selected six photos from the many photos and added text: "Less than a year after graduating from university, I was just a small employee with a monthly salary of several thousand yuan, while my roommate who had lived with me for four years had soared to become the big boss of a matchmaking company.

I would like to thank my roommate for not forgetting a small person like me. He called me as soon as he arrived in Jinling City. We will not go home until we are drunk tonight.

ps: Tomorrow my roommate, the famous 'Master Jiang', is going to introduce me to someone. Please don't be too envious if you see me, my classmates in class XX! "

After Hong Zhiwei successfully sent this circle of friends, the number of likes and comments began to rise continuously, and the popularity was more exaggerated than any other circle of friends he had sent before.

Hong Zhiwei replied happily one by one.

A few minutes later, the university’s WeChat class group also became lively.

The classmates kept @Jiang Feng and Hong Zhiwei, asking them about their reunion.

College classmates are different from elementary school, junior high school, and high school classmates.

Most of my classmates in elementary school, junior high school, and high school are from this city. Even if their hometown is not in this city, they basically buy a house and settle down in this city.

But it’s different in college. College classmates basically come from all over the world. There are not many people from the same province, and even fewer from the same city.

There are also not many people who work in the same city after graduation.

Therefore, after graduation, college classmates rarely have the opportunity to meet each other.

For people like Jiang Feng and Hong Zhiwei, who are separated by more than 1,700 kilometers, they rarely have the opportunity to meet each other except at wedding banquets or class gatherings.

This is also the reason why other students are more interested in their gatherings.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Jiang Feng had become the boss of a matchmaking company less than a year after graduation.

If it was just two unknown people in the class getting together, probably no one would be interested.

So, the two of them ate, drank and chatted with classmates in the class group, and they kept drinking until about eight o'clock in the evening before they dispersed.

Then, when it came time to pay the bill, Hong Zhiwei rushed to pay the bill.

According to him, although Jiang Feng is a big boss, this is his territory, so he should be the host. Besides, Jiang Feng still has to find a partner for him tomorrow, so how can he let the matchmaker treat him?

Jiang Feng did not compete with him for this. It was only about three or four hundred yuan, so it would not be a big deal for anyone to treat him.

Because both of them were drunk, Jiang Feng hired a designated driver to take Hong Zhiwei home first, and then asked the driver to find a decent hotel nearby to park the car.

Check in, take a shower, and go to bed.

No words were spoken that night.

The next day.

Jiang Feng got up, washed up, and had a free breakfast at the hotel, then started looking for a match for his roommate Hong Zhiwei.

Suddenly, an invisible wave swept out, instantly covering tens of millions of people. Female avatars kept flashing by, and finally locked onto one of them:

【Name】Qian Sisi

Age: 21

【Height】162cm

【Weight】47kg

[Family background] She was born in a single-parent family. Her parents divorced when she was a little over one year old. She was raised by her mother alone. Currently, the mother and daughter are running a barbecue restaurant in a certain night market, and their business is booming.

[Personality and Hobbies] Independent, filial, strong self-esteem, prejudiced against men due to family reasons. I like all kinds of food, and like to read quietly in my spare time.

[Relationship experience] None

[Current marriage matching value] 68 (marital relationship 54 + family matching 77 + family relationship 73)

[Ultimate Marriage Matching Value] 87 (Marriage Relationship 90 + Matching 86 + Family Relationship 85)

After reading Qian Sisi's information, Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh that it was not easy for this mother and daughter.

A single mother, without any help from relatives, had to work to earn money while raising a one-year-old child. How much suffering she went through in the process can only be understood by those who have experienced it.

This is an extremely strong mother.

Jiang Feng really wanted to visit right now and meet this strong mother and daughter, but the people who make the barbecue usually go to bed very late, and it was not suitable to visit them at this time since they were still sleeping.

At least noon is suitable.
