Everyone turned their attention to Gu Wei without prior arrangement.
Because, more or less, everyone had heard that Gu Wei's ex-girlfriend, Lu Xue, wanted to win him back after learning that he had become rich.
However, no one expected that Lu Xue would show up on this occasion.
Gu Wei frowned in displeasure.
He had already made his stance very clear that day.
Lu Xue, however, still refused to give up and appeared with Liu Haiyang.
Liu Haiyang gave an awkward laugh: "Sorry I'm late, and then I ran into Lu Xue at the door..."
In fact, he knew that his behavior was somewhat inappropriate.
However, if the two of them successfully get back together, he will also have some credit for it.
Lu Xue ignored the various looks from the bystanders, focusing only on Gu Wei, and said pitifully, "Gu Wei, I couldn't contact you at all, so I had to resort to this."
Gu Wei said coldly, "I remember I made things very clear that day. You were the one who suggested breaking up, and you said that if things went too far, we would be strangers. Now you're coming back to pester me again. Is that meaningful?"
Lu Xue's eyes reddened, and she said excitedly, "But I told you, I regret it. I really still love you. Why can't you give me a chance for the sake of our past relationship?"
When she said this, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
Gu Wei was so angry that he laughed instead.
He used to have really poor eyesight.
"You think we can just break up like that? You think you regret it and I'll give you another chance? Do you think everyone in the world is your parents and the earth revolves around you? Lu Xue, nobody's a fool. If I hadn't suddenly gotten some money, you wouldn't even bother with me!"
"Today, in front of everyone, I'm saying this for the last time: there's absolutely no possibility between us. If you keep pestering me, you're just being shameless!"
Lu Xue was shocked that Gu Wei would speak so harshly in front of so many classmates, showing no mercy whatsoever. She was immediately filled with shame, indignation, and resentment.
"you……"
Song Daming loathed women like Lu Xue: "What do you mean, 'you'? If you had any shame, you wouldn't be pestering me like this. Just get out of here!"
Chu Sitong actually felt embarrassed for Lu Xue. Even though they were growing apart and their relationship wasn't as good anymore, they were still classmates and roommates. She nudged her boyfriend, then stood up and grabbed Lu Xue's forearm, advising, "You should leave quickly."
Lu Xue shook off Chu Sitong's hand: "So you think I'm wrong just like them? Fine, I'll leave by myself! Gu Wei, I'll make you regret this!"
Gu Wei coldly lowered his eyes, not even glancing at Lu Xue.
After Lu Xue left, Liu Haiyang immediately became the target of public criticism.
Liu Haiyang felt very remorseful. He never expected Gu Wei to be so heartless, and Lu Xue to be so useless.
He rubbed his hands together and said awkwardly, "Look at the mess this has made... Gu Wei, I'm really sorry."
Gu Wei could easily see that Liu Haiyang was apologizing, but he might not really mean it. However, he was too lazy to argue with him: "It's okay, let's find a place to sit down."
"Okay, okay." Liu Haiyang felt like he had been granted a pardon and quickly took a seat.
Lu Xue's unexpected little incident was quickly forgotten.
Once most of the people had arrived, the kitchen began serving the dishes.
One delicious dish after another was served.
As the host, Gu Wei raised a glass, and then everyone started eating and chatting.
Aside from Gu Wei winning the lottery, the conversation mostly revolved around funny stories from their school days, as well as everyone's current work, life, and relationship status.
After all, they only graduated last year and haven't been in the workforce for very long. So far, Gu Wei is the one who's doing the best.
Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces—some envious, some jealous, some complicated—I felt a pang of envy.
Gu Wei was also filled with emotion.
The only way for the poor to become rich is through mutation.
If he hadn't been lucky enough to receive the cheat code, he would definitely be at the bottom of the class right now.
After the meal, everyone parted ways at the restaurant entrance.
After dropping off his boss and the others at the hotel, Gu Wei went home.
A hotel can't compare to home; even showering is just a quick rinse.
After taking a bath, Gu Wei had nothing to do, so he took out the blue and white porcelain bowl and slowly played with it in his hands.
He felt that the antique he had successfully found for the first time was of great significance, so he was reluctant to sell it immediately.
Furthermore, the antique shop owner's estimate was a bit low; he was afraid of selling it at a loss.
After playing with it for a while, Gu Wei carefully put it away again.
He believes that there will be many more opportunities to find priceless antiques in the future.
I'll definitely have to sell some of it to make money later.
What to do with the ones that aren't sold will be a problem.
Is it the 84th anniversary area, or the modern era?
Gu Wei felt that one should not put all their eggs in one basket.
He looked around the rented house. Even though the renovation was quite nice, it wasn't his own after all, and it still didn't feel very safe.
It seems I need to buy a suitable house.
Ideally, it should be a villa, where a private and secure basement can be converted into a storage room, and it's also more convenient to come and go than a high-rise building.
The next day, Gu Wei and his friends revisited the university campus.
We also sampled various delicious snacks on a street outside the school, bringing back many fond memories.
Unfortunately, the time spent together was always too short, and soon it was time to say goodbye.
Gu Wei and Song Daming took the person to the airport.
Everyone was a little reluctant to part.
We agreed to get together every now and then.
On the way back to the city, Song Daming suggested that he wanted to visit Gu Wei's restaurant.
Gu Wei naturally wouldn't refuse.
