Overjoyed by the flattery, Sun Yurong, brimming with generosity, directly tagged Lü Ziqun, saying, "I'll treat everyone to the gathering on Saturday; no need to accept any money as gifts."
“We’ve already collected quite a bit,” Lu Ziqun replied.
"Let's cancel it. We'll have dinner at the Chujiang Hotel first, then go sing karaoke. I'll pay." Sun Yurong is very generous. A night's expenses would be at most ten thousand yuan, so the price of one of her handbags is nothing to her.
"Mr. Sun is really generous with his money, thanks, but I really won't give you any money as a gift," a female classmate flattered.
The others also flattered them, saying that none of them had contributed any money, and two hundred yuan was not a small amount, so they should save money wherever possible.
"A few thousand yuan is really nothing to me. As long as I have fun, that's all that matters." Sun Yurong spoke even more extravagantly. She now wanted the whole world to know how well she was doing and that she was no longer the poor girl she used to be.
Dong Siyue and Ye Qingqing complained privately, "She's gotten so arrogant just because she has a little money. Those classmates are really forgetful. Have they all forgotten that she was dishonest and had a bad reputation when she was in school?"
Ye Qingqing smiled and replied, "People are generally forgetful."
Now that Sun Yurong is a rich woman, who would remember her past disgraceful deeds?
Conversely, if Sun Yurong were impoverished, people would have a better memory and would point out all the things she had done in the past, and then kick her while she was down. Most people are bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong.
Dong Siyue was only angry for a moment and quickly calmed down. She and Lü Ziqun were not particularly close. She was just standing up for her classmate. However, Ye Qingqing was right. It was not appropriate for outsiders to interfere in such family matters. If things went wrong, they would be disliked by both sides. It was best to just pretend that they knew nothing.
But she still tagged Lü Ziqun, saying, "Don't forget to bring your family. Everyone else brings their family, but you don't."
Others joined in the commotion, urging Lü Ziqun to bring his family. Song Hongye also showed up, saying she would attend the class reunion with her husband, Du Peiran. Du Peiran's family ranch was growing bigger and bigger. Although he wasn't good at studying, he was a shrewd businessman. He had opened a dairy company in Pingjiang and even created a brand. He was doing quite well.
The couple used to live in their hometown, but this year they are planning to move to Pingjiang for their child's education, as Pingjiang's education is among the best in the country.
Seeing that everyone was bringing their families, Lü Ziqun was also quite tempted, so she turned to Yu Shaoning, who was looking at his computer in the study, and asked, "Why don't you come with me to the class reunion on Saturday? None of our classmates have ever met you before."
Yu Shaoning was taken aback. Why was Lu Ziqun's class reunion also on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year?
Where are you having your gathering?
"Chujiang Hotel, it's been there every year. You agreed? I'll talk to them right now."
Lu Ziqun thought her husband had agreed and happily tapped her phone to reply. Yu Shaoning opened his mouth, wanting to say he wouldn't go, but he and Lu Ziqun never exchanged more than three sentences. At home, he would watch the computer while Lu Ziqun watched TV, and it was so quiet that it was as if no one lived there.
Fine, I'll go with Lü Ziqun on the sixth day of the lunar new year, meet him briefly, and then make an excuse to slip away. Yu Shaoning didn't think much of it and continued working.
Some people also asked Ye Qingqing to bring her family over, saying they wanted to see the demeanor of the CEO of Huanyu Pharmaceutical.
“He has to stay home to take care of the kids. The two little ones are unruly, and only my husband can keep them in check,” Ye Qingqing politely declined.
I chatted with the classmates in the group chat for the past few days, and it seems that more classmates are unhappy and often complain in the group. I guess they will complain on the day of the reunion as well. I'll just go and experience it for myself. There's no need to let Lu Mo go.
