Seeing that Si Mingda was a little agitated, Zhang Muquan quickly persuaded him, "Si Mingda, it's been two years since the incident, and the verdict has come out. Don't overthink it. Maybe the verdict will be changed if you appeal. You should have confidence. At least the money has been returned, which can help you recover some of your losses. This is a great thing, and we should all be happy."
After he finished speaking, he picked up his glass and stood up, saying, "My dear old classmates, for Si Mingda and Wang Mudan, being framed by Gao Huai in the past two years was a sudden disaster that caused them huge financial losses and also brought them a great mental blow. Fortunately, these twists and turns are now in the past, and their lives can return to peace.
I propose that we all raise a toast to congratulate Si Mingda and Wang Mudan on winning the lawsuit, okay? We hope the next trial will yield the desired outcome.
"good!"
All the friends raised their glasses and clinked them enthusiastically. Everyone gave Si Mingda and Wang Mudan their sincere blessings: "Si Mingda, the haze has passed and the sunrise is about to come. I wish you continued success and a golden path."
“After the storm comes the rainbow, and after the sand is washed away by the waves, what remains is gold. I wish your business will continue to prosper.”
"A friend in need is a friend indeed. After you and Mudan have gone through this ordeal, your relationship will be stronger and your family will be happier."
"This loss is just a small loss to avoid a big disaster. Your future life will be smoother and smoother, and you will earn more wealth. You should let go of the past and embrace new opportunities with a fresh attitude. I wish you a smoother life in the future."
"Relationships that are tempered into steel and can withstand the test of time are true relationships. I wish you a happier life and a more prosperous career in the future!"
"Mingdan Company has withstood the test of time and will reach new heights in the future. Your career will surely flourish."
"Love grows stronger with time. Throughout these two years of turmoil, Mudan's dedication is truly admirable. She has put in tremendous effort to revive the company, and we have seen her shrewd business acumen and extraordinary wisdom. Marrying Mudan is the greatest happiness and luck in your life. You must cherish such an excellent wife. I wish your relationship will become increasingly sweet and remain youthful!"
Simingda and Wang Mudan were deeply grateful for the classmates’ enthusiastic and heartfelt blessings. They smiled and nodded to their friends continuously to express their gratitude.
After a while, Simingda's mood calmed down a little. He stood up, clasped his hands together and bowed slightly to his friends. He said excitedly, "Thank you all for your blessings! The disaster that Wang Mudan and I have suffered this time is unprecedented. As you said, only after experiencing the baptism of wind and rain can true feelings be revealed, just like our friendship. In Wang Mudan and I's most difficult times, you have always been with us, which has greatly encouraged us and comforted our tired hearts. This disaster is like a sieve, helping us to filter out the hypocritical relatives and acquaintances. Those who remain are all good friends and old classmates who sincerely help us. True love is revealed in times of adversity, and true friendship is revealed when money is borrowed. I am grateful for your help from the bottom of my heart. Without your support and help, I would not have been reborn."
When the topic moved him, Simingda bent down again and bowed to express his gratitude to his friends.
Seeing this, Zhang Muquan quickly pulled him to sit down and said, "Si Mingda, we are not outsiders, there is no need to be so polite."
Thinking of what he had experienced in the past two years, Simingda's heart was like a turbulent sea and could not calm down. After experiencing the ups and downs, he felt even more the preciousness of a peaceful life. The hardships of the past two years have re-baptized his body and mind, and also made him clearly realize who is a truly trustworthy friend.
He held Zhang Muquan's hand tightly and said excitedly, "Muquan, everyone here is our classmate. We all know each other well. I want to speak frankly to you about my true feelings. I hope you don't mind."
Zhang Muquan smiled knowingly and said, "Haha, why be so polite? Classmates can say anything. Just say whatever you want to say. I'm all ears!"
Si Mingda nodded gently and said emotionally, "Back when we were at K University, you pursued Wang Mudan. Although I was successful in the end, the roses you gave her and the letters you wrote to her have become a knot in my heart that I can't untie. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I admit that I can't be a gentleman. Before this disaster, I had no intention of meeting you, nor did I want to be friends with you. I know you have a good character, so I'm telling you the truth. I hope you don't mind. I'm just a straightforward person and I can't keep a word to myself."
Seeing Si Mingda bringing up the past in front of so many people, Wang Mudan was worried that it would offend Zhang Muquan, so she quickly reminded him, "Si Mingda, are you already talking nonsense before we even start drinking?"
Compared to Wang Mudan's nervousness, Zhang Muquan seemed quite tolerant of the forgotten past. He smiled generously and said, "Haha, Si Mingda, just as you said, we are old classmates who know each other well. Now we all have families and children. It's okay to tell about the past as a joke. I don't mind."
He turned to Wang Mudan and said, "Mudan, who doesn't have some stories from their youth? We're both 38 now. Looking back on my experiences when I was 18, I do feel a little naive. Let's just treat it as a memory from our youth. It's a rare opportunity for us to get together today, so just say whatever you want to say. Let's chat freely and enjoy our meal."
