During the following period, Lin Shirui did not return to work in the company, because Si Mingyu gave her a holiday until the Chinese New Year, and she only had to arrange the purchase of a house and move for her family.
But in fact, as the Spring Festival approaches, all kinds of things come up, such as class reunions.
It has been more than four years since we graduated from high school. Our work has become stable and our love life is about to blossom. It is the time when we need to brag and show off at class reunions. So we basically attend all the reunions before the Spring Festival.
Lin Shirui didn't want to go at first, thinking it was boring, but she couldn't resist the constant persuasion of her classmate and good friend and came anyway.
Shangri-La Hotel in the park.
Lin Shirui wore the latest Chanel collection today, a classic Burberry trench coat, and a LV STEAMER handbag. This wasn't intentional; as Si Mingyu's personal assistant, she had to wear designer clothes, and she'd gotten used to it over time.
The venue we chose for the gathering was the hotel buffet restaurant. Five hundred yuan per person wasn't a problem for those who already had jobs, and it wasn't like they were eating out every day. It was impossible for all of the forty-plus students in the class to come, but if you included their families, it was about enough.
When classmates meet, they naturally exchange pleasantries. Although everyone has learned how to dress after working for many years, and some have even had plastic surgery on their faces, Lin Shirui is still the most beautiful among all the girls.
You have to believe that she was able to stand out from so many applicants, and that the stylists who now serve celebrities did her hair and dressed her, which is something that ordinary people can't compare to.
However, there is not a single male classmate who dares to come up and chat with her. After all, the branded clothes she wears are very scary. If you don’t have some strength, you dare not speak up.
Lin Shirui was also happy to chat with her classmate and good friend Yao Linlin.
"Oh, sorry I'm late." The voice came before the person arrived, and everyone looked and saw that it was Gao Baihui.
She is the second most beautiful girl in the class after Lin Shirui, but compared to Lin Shirui who focused on studying in high school, Gao Baihui prefers socializing.
Today she wore a Gucci coat and carried a classic LV monogram handbag, which also attracted the attention of the students present.
"This is a wealthy man on the list." Yao Linlin said in a low voice.
"Maybe he earned it himself." Lin Shirui said with a smile.
"She can make money on her own? Do you believe it?" Yao Linlin curled her lips.
We are all classmates. We have known each other's personalities for such a long time. Besides, even though we have graduated, we can still hear some news.
After graduation, Gao Baihui changed jobs many times, mainly because she couldn't handle the hardship or fatigue. However, she was good-looking and good at talking, so even though her job didn't last long, it was easy to find another one, and she didn't lack for food and drink.
"Didn't Miss Gao bring her family?" a lively classmate joked.
"My husband went to park the car and will be here soon. I accompanied him to Shanghai to discuss business today and it took him a whole day to get back." Gao Baihui took off her coat while speaking. She was wearing a short dress underneath, so she was not afraid of the cold.
"What kind of business is this? It's the end of the year and you're still so busy. Are you going to collect debts?"
"Don't talk nonsense. What debt collection? It's a decoration business."
With Gao Baihui joining, the atmosphere became lively. After all, everyone had finally gathered together, and the purpose was to have some fun.
"My husband is here." Gao Baihui went to greet him while speaking.
The man was in his thirties and dressed like a successful man. Although his appearance was not handsome, he was definitely not ugly either. He was just an ordinary person.
"Let me introduce to you all. This is my husband, Cao Baofeng." Gao Baihui went over and took the man's arm.
"Hello everyone, I'm sorry for being late. Today's meal is my treat."
"Since Brother Cao is so generous, I would like to toast him on behalf of everyone." The former squad leader immediately stood up and raised his glass.
Cao Baofeng's words did win everyone's favor. While 500 yuan per person wasn't much, it wasn't too little either. Naturally, they were happy to be treated. In fact, the total cost for over 40 people was only a little over 20,000 yuan. Some of the better-off students immediately felt that their lack of time to pretend was a mistake.
Another classmate who was doing well took the initiative to talk to Cao Baofeng. For a moment, he and Gao Baihui became the focus of the party.
"Hey, coming here." Yao Linlin gently touched Lin Shirui and pointed casually, and saw Gao Baihui pulling Cao Baofeng towards them.
"Come over if you want." Lin Shirui didn't care.
Although the restaurant had allocated an area for them, there were no tables that could seat forty people. Therefore, in addition to a long table that could seat about twenty people, the others sat at other tables on both sides.
"Miss Lin, let me toast you." Gao Baihui was holding a glass of red wine.
"I'm sorry, I drove here today, so I won't drink. I'll have a drink instead." Lin Shirui poured herself a glass of Coke.
"Just name a price. My husband also drove here." Gao Baihui was a little unhappy.
"Baihui, stop messing around. Miss Lin doesn't have to drink if she doesn't want to." Cao Baofeng, who was standing next to her, pulled Gao Baihui aside and said.
"Husband, you..." Gao Baihui wanted to say something, but Cao Baofeng glared back at her.
"Ms. Lin, I'm Cao Baofeng from Jiaquande Decoration Company. You may not remember me. It was Mr. Tao Quanrui who introduced the project to me." Cao Baofeng said with a smile on his face.
"Oh, I remember now. It's really a coincidence that I meet you here." Lin Shirui finally reacted after hearing what the other party said.
Si Mingyu entrusted the decoration of the group's new headquarters to Tao Quanrui. After all, the other party was not only engaged in real estate but also had his own decoration company. However, as it was almost the end of the year and in order to catch up with the progress, the other party brought in several other decoration companies in the industry to join in.
Perhaps the other party had seen Lin Shirui when she went to the scene to check it out, but she definitely had no impression of Cao Baofeng.
"I didn't expect that Miss Lin and Baihui are classmates. Don't take her personality seriously. Let me apologize on her behalf first." Cao Baofeng drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.
"Ms. Lin, this is my business card. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to call me." Putting down his wine glass, Cao Baofeng took out his business card and handed it over with both hands.
"You're too kind. We're just classmates, so it's nothing." Lin Shirui also accepted the business card politely.
"Then I won't disturb Miss Lin." Seeing that the other party gave him face, Cao Baofeng left with satisfaction.
After they were quite far away, Gao Baihui whispered, "Hubby, you're being too polite to my classmate Lin Shirui."
"Who would have thought to meet her here. The place we are going to today is the company where your classmate works." Cao Baofeng said.
"Is it the East Asia Mingyu Group that bought the entire building?" Gao Baihui exclaimed, covering her mouth.
"Yes! Your classmate works in that group, as the president's assistant. He's truly second only to the president. He could have made me lose this project with just one sentence. Do you think my attitude is excessive?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Gao Baihui was a little scared after hearing this. Fortunately, Cao Baofeng stopped them in time and no conflict occurred between the two.
