The three followed Liang Zhou into the private room, and found that everyone was already there.
Zhao Sicheng and Xiao Wan sat together, both with sweet smiles on their faces.
Zhou Dazheng and Gu Chaoyang talked incessantly about their latest scientific research results.
Chang Yunxiao remained quiet, sitting upright, with a serious look and a hint of distance.
When Xu Shiming saw Liang Zhou and the other three coming in, he immediately walked up to them with a laugh and pulled them to sit down.
"It's rare, it's so rare, it's the first time we're together after so many years of graduation!" Xu Shiming said, opening the bottle of Maotai he snatched from the mayor's father.
We haven't seen each other for many years, and now that we are together, we are all filled with emotion.
The atmosphere was a little awkward at first, but with the efforts of Liang Zhou, Xu Shiming and little sun Qiao Youyou, everyone quickly regained the feeling when they were studying and struggling together.
Gu Chaoyang asked Zhu Lan across from him: "By the way, I heard that there was an earthquake in your City C some time ago. Are you okay?"
Zhu Lan smiled and said it was okay. Xiao Zhen was gone, but Xu Shiming beside him said seriously:
"You all heard about the archaeological prophecy in the news last time, right? It's really weird!
The time of the earthquake in City C was exactly the same as what was predicted in the prophecy!
To be honest with you, I have begun to believe in metaphysics..."
Everyone discussed the matter, but even as smart as they were, they couldn't figure it out.
Maybe it's really metaphysics?
After three rounds of drinking, Xu Shiming talked about the embarrassing things that happened when he was in school. He pointed at Zhao Sicheng and laughed:
"When you first entered school, you secretly sent flowers to Xiao Wan. If it weren't for your buddy covering for you, you would have been caught by the class teacher long ago!"
Xiao Wan pursed her lips and smiled when she heard that, then glanced sideways at Zhao Sicheng.
They were not familiar with each other at that time. If it weren't for the rose that suddenly appeared on her desk, she would not have noticed Zhao Sicheng, whom she had hardly ever spoken to, and there would not have been the subsequent heart-beating and fate between them.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Sicheng did not respond, but blinked in confusion:
"What roses?"
Xiao Wan glared at him, but Zhao Sicheng looked as if he really didn't know.
Xu Shiming was anxious: "Weren't you on duty that day? I was the first one to leave that morning. Who else could have put the rose on Xiao Wan's desk except you?"
Qiao Youyou also nodded: "Yes, I remember! Xu Shiming was the one who took the lead in making trouble at that time, hehe!"
Zhao Sicheng rubbed the back of his head, having no idea about the rose incident.
It was true that he had a crush on Xiao Wan, but she was studying hard all day long and he didn't dare to tell her at all, let alone send her flowers.
He was teased by everyone in class that day, and he thought that his feelings for Xiao Wan had already been seen by everyone.
This is where their relationship began.
Zhu Lan covered her lips and asked Qiao Youyou quietly: "Why don't I know about this?"
"Oh, you often went to the office to help the teacher mark papers, so it shouldn't be like that!"
Seeing that everyone was laughing, Zhao Sicheng had no choice but to laugh too.
Only Zhu Lan's expression became a little strange.
After everyone had finally laughed enough, Zhu Lan asked Xu Shiming anxiously:
"Is that rose... pink?"
"yes!"
Zhu Lan: “…”
Everyone looked at Zhu Lan's expression and finally realized that something was wrong, and they all looked at her.
Zhu Lan took a deep breath and said slowly:
"Actually, Sicheng was on duty that day, but I was the one who left the classroom last."
"Ah?" Xu Shiming was stunned. "Then didn't you see him secretly put flowers on Xiao Wan's seat?"
Zhu Lan shook his head, "No."
"But when I left the classroom that day, I ran into Yujun from Class 7 next door. He was holding a pink rose in his hand."
When she mentioned the name "Youjun", some distant memories suddenly came to everyone's mind.
Finally, everyone's eyes focused on Qin Yuwei.
Qin Yuwei was the campus belle back then, and there were countless guys in school who liked her, and Youjun was the most fanatical one among them.
Liang Zhou widened his eyes:
"I remember that Xiao Wan and Sister Qin sat at the desks in front and behind each other...
Could it be that Youjun went to give flowers to Sister Qin, but he delivered them to the wrong place and landed them on Xiaowan's desk?"
It took everyone a while to come to their senses. After thinking about it, they all felt that this was very possible.
Zhao Sicheng looked at Xiao Wan cautiously, but found that Xiao Wan had a calm face without a trace of unhappiness.
Just as I breathed a sigh of relief, my ears were grabbed.
"You idiot... I thought you were sending me flowers! When you didn't mention it later, I thought you were shy!"
"Oh my wife, isn't this called fate? Beautiful misunderstanding, beautiful misunderstanding!!"
Everyone laughed again, as if they had returned to the old times.
The dinner ended smoothly, and everyone went back to the entrance of the InterContinental Hotel to say goodbye to each other. Friends who had less contact after graduation also added each other on WeChat again.
Chang Yunxiao took out his mobile phone, opened the QR code, and everyone came to scan it.
The pure white profile picture suits his personality very well.
Xu Shiming clicked on Chang Yunxiao's circle of friends and found only one message, which was about a reward for reporting a criminal case.
After he clicked on it, he said, "Huh?" "Provincial Public Security Bureau? Old Chang, you work in the provincial department now...?"
Halfway through his sentence, Xu Shiming was stunned.
"I heard from my father that the provincial department has a great forensic detective named Chang, nicknamed 'Little Song Ci'. Could it be you? You're so amazing!"
Chang Yunxiao responded calmly, "Fortunately, the work is done."
Zhou Da couldn't help but say: "As expected of my brother Chang, Thai pants are hot!"
Xu Shiming: "Wow, I heard that your provincial department has been very busy recently, and you can still find time to get together with us. It's so touching, brother!"
Chang Yunxiao did not respond, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
We created a new WeChat group and embarked on our own life journey again.
"Keep in touch in the future!"
"Let's meet again in City C next time!!!"
