"Alright, everyone, stop speculating. Maybe Wang Xinghe really has some family troubles." Li Zheng was secretly delighted to hear everyone speculating about Wang Xinghe, but he still pretended to tell everyone not to speculate.
"Brother Zheng, it's you I didn't expect. You're actually the young master of the Ningjiang Li Group."
"It's nothing to brag about, just a small business my family runs."
"Brother Zheng, don't be modest. You even hid your identity from us when you were in school."
"Oh, it's because my family doesn't want me to reveal my identity and wants me to focus on my studies. So, to make it up to you, I'll pay for lunch today!"
"Brother Zheng is awesome!"
"Brother Zheng is awesome!"
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Look, isn't that our school beauty, Ms. Shi? What's she doing here?"
Shi Yue came to Li Zheng's side, and Li Zheng put his arm around Shi Yue's shoulder.
"Let me introduce you all, this is my girlfriend, Shi Yue."
"Brother Zheng, that's impressive! I noticed you were interested in the school beauty back in high school, and now you're together after graduation?"
"Brother Zheng, can you teach me some techniques? How exactly did you win over School Beauty Shi?"
"That's because your school beauty was attracted by my personal charm."
"Alright, everyone, stop guessing. I like your Zheng-ge, so naturally I'll be with Li Zheng."
"Wow! Zheng-ge, look how much the school beauty loves you! She confessed her feelings to you in front of so many people!"
“I also really like Yueyue, and we plan to get engaged after graduation.”
"Brother Zheng, your life is too perfect!"
What are you talking about?
Upon hearing the familiar voice, everyone searched for its source and recognized it as Ning Qianqian's voice.
"Ning Qianqian?"
"What? Don't you recognize me?"
"Wow! Ning Qianqian, you've changed so much!"
"What? You don't recognize me now that I've become more beautiful?"
"Wow! Ning Qianqian, you've really changed a lot since you grew up! It's only been half a year, and you're already a goddess of school beauty level!"
"Of course! I've always been naturally beautiful, okay!"
The moment Ning Qianqian arrived, Shi Yue, who had been the center of attention, instantly lost her luster.
A female classmate who was close to Shi Yue also came over and took Shi Yue's arm.
"Yueyue, you and Li Zheng are classmates, right? Have you seen him at school?"
"No, come here, let me introduce you. This is my new good friend, Wang Xinghe's girlfriend, Liu Qingmeng. She's an exceptionally beautiful woman, and I like her very much!"
Upon hearing Ning Qianqian's words, Wang Xinghe quickly pulled Liu Qingmeng to his side. He knew that there were plenty of lesbian relationships these days, and he was worried that Ning Qianqian might have ulterior motives towards his girlfriend.
After Ning Qianqian's introduction, all eyes were now focused on Liu Qingmeng, who was standing next to Wang Xinghe.
The moment they saw Liu Qingmeng, all the boys were stunned.
"Is this Wang Xinghe's girlfriend, that loser?"
"Tell me this isn't true! How could this be his girlfriend? What makes him think he can?!"
"Her looks are even better than Ning Qianqian's!"
Everyone's first reaction was, "Let go of that girl and let me have her!"
Li Zheng smiled slightly.
"Wang Xinghe, I didn't expect you to actually come today. This girl is with you too."
"Li Zheng, she's my girlfriend. If she doesn't come with me, does she expect her to come with you?"
"Hey beautiful, we ran into you at the mall the other day because you were here to help him out, right? How much did he pay you for this? I'll pay double. You can go now. He's just a lowly factory worker who's got ulterior motives towards you!"
When Li Zheng said that, everyone suddenly realized what was going on, and the boys instantly felt that they had a chance. Their eyes became eager, and they prepared to come up and chat him up.
Hearing Li Zheng say this, Liu Qingmeng took Wang Xinghe's arm and uttered two words indifferently: "You're sick."
"Beautiful lady, what did you say?"
"Li Zheng, can't you hear me? My girlfriend says you're sick."
"Wang Xinghe, you've been working away from home for half a year, and now you think you're all that! How dare you talk back to me!"
"That's right, Wang Xinghe, this isn't school time anymore. You're no longer under the protection of your teachers. This is society now, and I don't think you've experienced enough of its dangers yet!"
"Indeed, I haven't had enough of it yet. Why don't you teach me?"
"Alright! All of you, shut up. I don't want you guys to ruin my class reunion. If you keep this up, you can leave!" Ning Qianqian said.
Upon hearing Ning Qianqian speak, Li Zheng immediately turned and left.
The swan who was originally standing next to Li Zheng now looks more like the ugly duckling, wanting to chase after him and take his arm.
"Li Zheng, wait for me! Don't be angry. Wang Xinghe is a good-for-nothing, not even close to your level!"
"Alright, let's go and stroll around the campus. Mengmeng, do you want to come with us?"
"Wang Xinghe, did you really drop out of school to work?" Ning Qianqian's female classmate asked.
"No, I transferred schools and went to university. My girlfriend and I were classmates in university."
"I see. I knew Wang, the academic genius, wouldn't drop out of school so easily!"
"Wang, you've become so much more handsome! It seems the school uniform really did hide your good looks!"
"Yeah, Wang, you're definitely the campus heartthrob now!"
The female classmate next to me made a joke.
Liu Qingmeng tugged at Wang Xinghe's sleeve.
"You guys go explore, I'll show Mengmeng around our campus."
"Mengmeng, are you going to abandon me?" Ning Qianqian said pitifully.
"Ning Qianqian, my girlfriend and I are strolling around campus. Why are you joining us? Let's go!"
"Hey, Wang Xinghe! You're asking for it again now that I'm not going to yell at you for a bit!"
"You think you can out-argue me? You're always second best, I'm out!"
"Wang! Xing! He! You just wait!"
"Xingxing, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to say that about Qianqian?"
"It's okay, she's just like that, she'll be fine in a bit."
"Looks like you know her quite well!"
"Oh, that's not important. I'll show you around our campus."
The two strolled around the campus and soon arrived at the honor roll.
"I didn't expect the honor roll to still be up," Wang Xinghe remarked after glancing at it.
"Yeah, not only has the honor roll not been changed, but even the campus star next to it hasn't been changed. So this is what you looked like in high school!"
Only after Liu Qingmeng reminded him did Wang Xinghe notice that there was a photo of him next to the picture, with the student's introduction and honors below the photo.
Compared to his classmates, Wang Xinghe's honors are staggering.
At first glance, they are all number one.
"Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder they call you a genius. That's an exaggeration. Have you never gotten second place in your entire life?"
