She walked with ease and grace, exuding an undeniable aura. The gazes of the crowd shifted from unfamiliarity to astonishment, envy, admiration, and joy—a complex mix of emotions that made her quite intriguing.
Linghu Lan smiled, looked around, nodded to Zeng Hui, and then greeted the other classmates with a smile.
Everyone suddenly became interested in Linghu Lan. Yesterday, they had only heard Zeng Hui say that Linghu Lan had changed and had become a great beauty. However, seeing is believing, and hearing is deceiving. Without seeing it in person, the first thing that came to everyone's mind was the Linghu Lan of the past.
Seeing it with my own eyes now, I know that Zeng Hui's words were true. Linghu Lan now exudes a very calm and composed temperament, and you can tell at a glance that she is an experienced person.
"Linghu Lan, it's been a long time. You've become even more beautiful than before."
"You've changed so much! If Zeng Hui hadn't called your name just now, I wouldn't have believed you were Linghu Lan. You never used to care so much about dressing up, but now you look so beautiful!"
"Your entire outfit must cost over 100,000 yuan, right? Old classmate, where are you making your fortune?"
The crowd surrounded Linghu Lan, filled with curiosity. Their voices were tinged with envy, scrutiny, and scrutiny. Everyone carefully concealed their own questions, using the most discreet and uncomplaining method to find out what they wanted to know.
Linghu Lan smiled and answered everyone's questions one by one, cleverly changing the subject to those she couldn't answer.
As everyone waited, they chatted, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious. Linghu Lan, in particular, was witty and talkative, and many of her words carried a sense of great pride. Moreover, she always managed to cleverly share some interesting anecdotes with everyone, and soon many people gathered around her, chatting about this and that, with bursts of laughter frequently erupting from the crowd.
With Linghu Lan present, everyone naturally ignored Tang Xinyou and Xia Mingyuan. No one brought up such an unpleasant matter, especially since they already knew the whole story. The incident between the three of them had become common knowledge, and if it were brought up again now, the class reunion might not be able to continue.
However, there are always people who spoil the fun.
A girl who had been standing in the corner seemed unable to bear the commotion on Linghu Lan's side any longer, and coldly said, "Isn't it all money from Xia Mingyuan's family and Tang Xinyou's family that they paid in compensation? Anyone with that kind of money could eat and dress well!"
He spoke these words quite loudly, as if he was deliberately trying to make sure Linghu Lan could hear them.
The crowd fell silent instantly.
Everyone looked extremely embarrassed.
The girl's name was Fang Mei. Before Linghu Lan arrived, everyone revolved around her because, after things settled down, she was probably the one who was doing the best among all the classmates.
Her family owns a factory, and she had a car and a house when she was in college. When her parents heard that she didn't like the food here, they opened a restaurant across from the school so that she could eat and drink there.
This is a pampered young lady who grew up in luxury.
Fang Mei felt awkward when she saw everyone praising Linghu Lan.
Linghu Lan smiled faintly, ignoring her.
She has become very well-mannered; she doesn't want to argue with someone she doesn't know well, even if it's just a few words.
