Chapter 164 Money Galore
Because the class monitor said not to bring family members when he contacted them, Jiang Jiani didn't bring any when she went either. However, she had already told Lu Xiangyang that if she hadn't returned in two hours, he would pick her up.
The class monitor, with her sharp eyes, spotted Jiang Jianni while she was still standing at the restaurant entrance looking around. She immediately called out, "Jiang Jianni, over here!"
As Jiang Jiani approached, she discovered that the entire group of people had indeed arrived.
Apart from four or five classmates who were admitted to university and were supposedly assigned to other places, everyone else came.
The teachers, however, either didn't want to join in the fun or were too busy with their teaching duties to come.
Jiang Jiani regretted it a little, thinking she should have said she was too busy with work to come.
But she teaches junior high school, and no matter how intense the junior high school curriculum is, it's not as intense as the high school curriculum.
If she uses this as an excuse, the class monitor will expose her on the spot.
The original owner was an unattainable beauty in junior high school, and she remained an unattainable beauty in high school.
The class monitor quickly came out to greet her, and was immediately struck by her beauty. As she got closer, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Jiang Jianni, you were beautiful enough in school, but I didn't expect you to be even more beautiful after you started working!"
"You're so beautiful, how are we ordinary people supposed to live?"
The class monitor is indeed the class monitor; he's quick-witted and eloquent.
Even though Jiang Jianni wasn't particularly happy to attend this so-called class reunion, she still felt incredibly comfortable thanks to the class monitor's kind words.
She chuckled softly: "If you put it that way, I'll take it seriously."
The class monitor immediately said, "What I said was true, didn't you all agree? Huh?"
Several lively male classmates immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, you're the prettiest girl in our class."
"I never expected the class beauty to be even prettier than before."
"Oh my god, I'm dizzy, I'm dizzy, I'm going to be dazzled by our class beauty."
Several female classmates immediately laughed and scolded, "So you think we're ugly just because the class beauty is pretty?"
"Knowing that the class beauty was pretty, what were you doing back then?"
"Sigh, it's so frustrating to compare yourself to others. Luckily, I know my own limitations."
A group of people were laughing and joking, whether married or single, as lively as they were in school.
However, they hadn't been out of high school for many years. Jiang Jianni was only twenty-four when she got married and had a child. Even after becoming parents, she was still young.
Those who haven't experienced much hardship in life can naturally maintain a youthful mindset.
Jiang Jianni went to sit among the girls, but then realized something was wrong. Some of them were sitting together with boys and girls. She was a little confused and whispered to the classmate next to her:
"Didn't they say we couldn't bring family members? Why are they bringing family members?"
The female classmate looked at her in surprise, then at the person opposite her, and said, "You didn't recognize me?"
Jiang Jianni was completely bewildered: "What do you mean you didn't recognize them? I recognized them! Aren't they Li Ling, Yang Junfang, and Zhang Keke?"
The female classmate pointed to herself with a serious expression and asked, "Then look at me, who am I?"
Jiang Jianni laughed speechlessly: "You're Qian Duoduo, who else would I not know but you? We've been deskmates for two years."
Qian Duoduo sighed: "Then how come you didn't recognize them? The people sitting with Li Ling and the others are also our classmates. Those are Zhang Junqiang, Guo Le, and Zhou Junzheng. Don't tell me you didn't recognize them."
Jiang Jianni looked astonished, completely unable to believe what she was seeing: "They are Zhang Junqiang, Guo Le, and Zhou Junzheng? Are you kidding me? How do they look alike?"
In her memory, Zhang Junqiang was a dark-skinned, thin boy who didn't like to talk. He was neither tall nor short. Guo Le was a fair-skinned, thin, and mischievous boy. Every day, the teacher would hit him with ten pieces of chalk. He was like a monkey and could never stay still. Zhou Junzheng was neither dark-skinned nor fair-skinned. He was good at studying and good at playing ping-pong.
But now, the man who is supposedly Zhang Junqiang has lost all trace of his former dark and thin appearance. He's not exactly fair-skinned, but he's completely different from before. He's gesturing animatedly when talking to the people around him, and you can't tell at all that he used to be quiet.
Guo Le is no longer fair-skinned; he's not exactly as dark as charcoal, but he looks like he just had a tan. Moreover, his posture is upright, and you can't tell at all from how he used to sit crookedly in a chair.
Zhou Junzheng, on the other hand, was chubby and fair-skinned, his features almost distorted by being squeezed together, and he wore glasses, looking completely different from before.
Jiang Jianni squinted and tried to discern the resemblance for a long time before finally finding a trace of the past. She was somewhat incredulous: "How have they changed so much? No, how did they get married?"
No, what surprised her even more was that they actually got married.
My classmate got married.
That's incredible.
When Jiang Jiani was in college in her previous life, there were five or six couples in her class. They were all just dating for fun and broke up before graduation, during their internships.
When I went to university, I was so focused on my studies that I didn't pay attention to this situation and didn't know if any of my university classmates were dating or getting married after graduation.
To my surprise, I found three couples at my high school reunion.
Qian Duoduo chuckled: "I knew you didn't know anything."
"Who told you to be so focused on studying back then? You didn't even know what was happening in our class, let alone other classes."
"They were dating in school."
"Later, I didn't get into university, and I was of marriageable age, so I got married."
"Not only the three of them, but four other people have also gotten married."
"However, they got married through a blind date, not by dating on their own."
Just like Jiang Jiani remembered, Qian Duoduo lived up to her nickname "know-it-all" at all, still knowing everything about the class even six years after graduation.
Before long, Jiang Jianni had a basic understanding of the situation of all her classmates, including those who were working in other places and had not yet returned.
Jiang Jianni: "...Didn't you say you wanted to be a journalist? Did you get into the major you wanted?"
Qian Duoduo is not only a busybody, but also very persistent.
When I took the college entrance exam for the first time, I didn't receive an offer from my desired university and was originally assigned to another university and a different major.
But Qian Duoduo was not convinced and did not go to school. Instead, she chose to repeat a year of high school.
By then, the original owner of this body had already gone to university, and it's unknown whether Qian Duoduo got what she wanted.
Qian Duoduo sighed and looked worried: "It's not that easy to pass the exam."
"I took the exam twice more and barely passed by the cutoff score. I haven't graduated yet."
She looked at Jiang Jiani with envy: "I heard that job assignments are hard to predict these days. A lot of them are done haphazardly. There are even liberal arts majors who end up on assembly lines."
"I'm currently doing an internship, and I don't know where I'll be assigned after the internship. I want to work as a reporter at a TV station, not at a newspaper. I think working at a TV station has a better future."
"But I have no connections, and no matter how hard I try, my grades aren't good enough. I don't know what the future holds."
Jiang Jiani was at a loss for words.
Nowadays, university job assignments are largely based on randomness.
She was able to be assigned to her current school entirely by good luck.
The girls were chatting happily when suddenly there was a commotion at the two tables outside.
Several people looked up and looked outside.
Qian Duoduo couldn't help but rub her eyes: "Holy crap, that's..."
