Song Hongye's father had the accident five years ago. A few years ago, her phone's battery life was poor, and she often forgot to charge it, so it would often shut down automatically. Now, phone batteries are much better, and a single charge can last for two days, so this happens less often.
Even if there was no power at the time, Song Hongye would definitely be able to get through if she called again the next day. Ye Qingqing couldn't understand why Song Hongye only called once for such a life-or-death matter.
Seeing Ye Qingqing's sincere concern for Song Hongye's father, Dong Siyue breathed a sigh of relief. She knew Ye Qingqing wasn't that kind of person. Although she didn't usually contact her classmates, she was definitely a kind-hearted person. The fact that Ye Qingqing came to visit her during the Chinese New Year after her accident was enough to prove her kindness.
But Song Hongye and the other classmates didn't think so. They felt that Ye Qingqing was aloof and unapproachable, like a fairy who was not related to human affairs. They were too embarrassed to approach her. Moreover, so far, Ye Qingqing was the best off among all the students in the class.
She comes from a wealthy family and is capable. Her husband is her childhood sweetheart, handsome and promising. Everyone knows Huanyu Pharmaceutical. They recruit from medical universities every year. Xi Murong, a classmate, works at Huanyu and is said to be doing very well. A few years ago, when Xi Murong came to a class reunion, he was dressed in designer brands, which was a stark contrast to his classmates who were earning a fixed salary.
Xi Murong only works for Ye Qingqing's husband, yet she's doing so well. You can imagine how wealthy Ye Qingqing's husband must be. Plus, Xi Murong praised Ye Qingqing's husband to the skies at the class reunion, so the classmates all had some thoughts in their minds. They felt that the distance between themselves and Ye Qingqing was getting further and further away, and that they were becoming more and more unattainable.
Especially the classmates who used to live in the same dormitory. When we were in school, we were all equal. We went to class together, ate in the cafeteria together, and made noise together. Although Ye Qingqing's family was indeed better off, she didn't feel any difference. But after graduation, we went our separate ways, and the class differences became more and more obvious.
Dong Siyue didn't feel much. After all, she had seen a lot and knew many people, including high-ranking officials and dignitaries, unlike Song Hongye and the others. They came from ordinary families when they were in school and were still poor even after graduating with a master's degree. Ye Qingqing had become a wealthy woman, while they were still struggling to earn a few thousand yuan a month. Perhaps the price of a pair of Ye Qingqing's shoes was more than their monthly salary.
Actually, it's not just marriage that requires a good match; the same goes for friendships.
It's really hard for people from different social classes to become friends. It's not that rich people look down on poor people, but that rich people's consumption habits, values, and daily lifestyles are completely different from those of poor people. Even going out shopping together can be a huge shock to poor friends, and they will gradually drift apart and their relationship will become estranged.
Dong Siyue felt this deeply. During her school days, she didn't fit in well with others because of her relationship with Li Hongming. After graduation, she kept in touch more often, mainly with a few female classmates. She also attended one or two class reunions, but she didn't feel very good about them, so she stopped attending many after that.
Moreover, Lu Ziqun, the organizer of the class reunion, was not doing well himself, and no one was organizing it anymore. The relationships between classmates were becoming increasingly distant, and Dong Siyue only kept in touch with a few classmates, including Lu Ziqun and Song Hongye.
"You were pregnant at the time, so Hongye probably didn't want to trouble you. And Du Peiran just happened to have contacted a leading expert." Dong Siyue made up a reason on the spot.
In fact, she privately thought that Song Hongye probably didn't want to owe Ye Qingqing a favor because she felt she couldn't repay it. However, she didn't know the specific reason; only Song Hongye herself knew.
