Bai Zhu's breathing stagnated, and he quietly glared at Bai Ye who was hiding behind him. He turned around again and said as if nothing had happened.
"If Miss Zhang likes Wanghai Tower, just take it. It's nothing."
Bai Zhu's heart was bleeding as he spoke. But he couldn't show it in front of Zhang Wenyu. He could only curse his son Bai Ye in his heart, and he made up his mind to give this bastard a good beating when he got home.
The old friends around him all looked at Bai Zhu with sympathy, and instantly felt that their child wasn't so disobedient anymore. Although he was always getting into trouble, at least he wasn't as bad as Bai Ye!
Cai Yu, Lu Huijun and others also came forward to say goodbye to Zhang Wenyu.
As for Bai Ye, he hid behind the crowd and didn't dare to say a word. He knew something was wrong as soon as he saw his father's eyes, so he quietly slipped to the back of the crowd. He planned to hide at his grandfather's house for a few days after the banquet, and then at his grandfather's house for a few days. Anyway, he must not appear in front of his father alone.
When Zhang Wenyu arrived home, her family was already asleep.
Hearing the noise, the bodyguard on duty that night came out to check the situation. Seeing that it was Zhang Wenyu who came back, he turned around and left to continue inspecting other places in the villa.
The nanny came forward and asked Zhang Wenyu if she needed anything, whether she needed a midnight snack or hangover soup.
Zhang Wenyu didn't drink much tonight. He just poured a glass of warm water and went back to his room to rest.
I just came out of the shower and the phone on the bedside table started ringing.
Zhang Wenyu applied skincare products to her face while clicking on her phone. The screen lit up, and Zhang Wenyu looked over to see a chattering noise in her high school group chat.
This group hasn't been this lively for a long time. Usually, the messages are just links to vote and advertisements to help cut down the losses sent by classmates.
Zhang Wenyu quickly completed the last step of her skin care routine, leaned comfortably on the bedside pillow, and started looking through the messages in the group chat with her mobile phone.
At the top was a class reunion notice sent by her classmate Xuexi Mo, whom she met in the supermarket last time, asking students who wanted to attend the reunion to let her know in advance so that she could book a restaurant.
Below this notice is the news from other students.
Classmate 1 said that he would definitely attend the party and wanted to ask the time of the party so that he could ask for leave in advance.
Student 2 hopes to schedule the meeting on the weekend because he may not be able to take time off on weekdays.
Classmate 3 also tagged Xi Mo and asked if he could bring his family members, otherwise there would be no one to look after the child.
There were also a few who said that they were currently working or traveling in other places and regretted not being able to attend the party.
But there were more people cheering in the group, some recommending restaurants, some suggesting games, and all kinds of messages popping up constantly.
Xi Mo said that the restaurant she chose would definitely not disappoint everyone, and she also tagged Zhang Wenyu in the group and asked her when she would return to S City and whether she had time to attend the party.
Zhang Wenyu said that she would stay at home for about a week and would be available to participate at any time during this period.
Zhang Wenyu had just sent the message when someone on her phone sent her another private message.
Zhang Wenyu clicked on it and saw that it was a message from her high school deskmate Xue Jing.
The cartoon puppy's head is shaking.
"Wenwen, Ximo said in the group that she's going to have a class reunion. Do you want to come back and join her?"
"Huh? I saw your reply in the group. You're back from out of town? When did you come back? Weren't you and Xi Mo unfamiliar with each other before?"
Zhang Wenyu quickly switched to the chat page with Xue Jing and typed a reply on the screen.
"I've been back for a week. I was trying to contact you, but I ran into Xi Mo at the supermarket a few days ago. She said you were on a business trip, so I didn't bother you. Are you back now?"
Xue Jing replied quickly.
"I got back at noon today. The company gave me a day off. Do you have time tomorrow? Let's get together?"
Zhang Wenyu responded with an OK gesture.
It was getting late, so after replying to Xue Jing, Zhang Wenyu put down her phone and fell asleep hugging the quilt.
The next morning, after having breakfast with his family, Zhang Wenyu went back upstairs to pack up and then drove to a shopping mall in City R to meet Xue Jing.
Inside the first-floor cafe, a woman wearing a green neo-Chinese dress and a pink jacket, her hair tied in an intellectual side bun and pinned with an ebony peach blossom hairpin, sat with two cups of flat white coffee in front of her. She fiddled with her phone, occasionally glancing at the door.
Ding bell. The door of the cafe was pushed open, and the bell on the door made a crisp sound.
Xue Jing raised her head and looked over.
The visitor was wearing a white Dior printed dress and carrying a Dior four-grid Himalaya Diana bag. She looked around as she entered the room, then saw Xue Jing and walked over with a smile.
This person is Zhang Wenyu.
Zhang Wenyu threw her bag aside, picked up the cup of coffee that Xue Jing pushed over and took a sip.
"The traffic was really bad today. I even left home twenty minutes early, but I was stuck in traffic for nearly ten minutes right after I left. I rushed all the way and still arrived on time. Were you waiting long?"
Xue Jing smiled gently.
"I just got here not long ago, so there's no rush. We're here to have fun today anyway, so let's rest for a while before going shopping. We can chat. By the way, didn't you work in the city where you went to college? Why did Xi Mo say yesterday that you were going back to S City?"
Zhang Wenyu lifted her drooping hair and spoke casually.
"I moved to another city a while ago. City S is more prosperous and has more opportunities. So I went there. What about you? Do you still travel frequently? What are your plans with your boyfriend? Oh, by the way! Did you know that Xi Mo was married? I only found out she was married when I ran into her a few days ago. Last night, when I was looking through our chat history, I found that many of my classmates have already started families, and some even have children. I was really shocked!"
Xue Jing smiled helplessly.
"I've been traveling a lot lately. It's for my career, so there's nothing I can do about it. My boyfriend and I are similar; his job requires him to travel frequently, so we're hesitant to discuss other things right now. We want to wait until things settle down. But as for Xi Mo..."
Xue Jing hesitated to speak, frowned and sighed, then raised her head and looked at Zhang Wenyu and said.
"I happen to know a little about Xi Mo's situation. She is indeed married, and she married well. Her husband is the vice president of a new energy company. After they got married, he even arranged a sinecure for Xi Mo in the company. She has changed a lot now, and her personality is completely different."
Zhang Wenyu nodded in agreement.
"Yes! She's much more cheerful now than before. If she hadn't called me that day, I definitely wouldn't have recognized her! And her relationship with Li Yilin has improved a lot now. They even went to see the teacher together! I couldn't believe my ears when she told me that."
Xue Jing raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise.
"Li Yilin is back from City B, too? Isn't Teng Jie back too? Li Yilin and Xi Mo's relationship was so strained back then, but now they've reconciled?"
