Hearing this sarcastic remark, Ye Feng's brow furrowed and then he turned around to see, surprisingly, a young man dressed in a suit and leather shoes!
This young man appeared to be just over twenty years old, with hair combed slick and shiny, a face with sharp features looking valiant and extraordinary, only slight scars at the corners of his eyes sowhat marred his handso visage.
At this mont, the young man had a playful smile on his lips as he looked at Ye Feng and said directly,
"What? Made a bit of money and now you don't recognize , your deputy class monitor?"
The young man now sat down next to Ye Feng, his eyes scanning over him, especially when he noticed the tattered shirt beneath Ye Feng's outerwear, his expression revealing a trace of contempt.
Ye Feng's undershirt was torn because he had helped Zhang Xing bandage her leg injury; this minor issue was, of course, of no concern to Ye Feng, but to others, it took on a different flavor.
Only now did the surrounding classmates notice Ye Feng, their gazes filled with surprise, indifference, and so even brimming with mockery and ridicule!
Ye Feng noticed everyone's expressions, but he really didn't mind; looking at the young man before him, he laughed and said,
"So it's the deputy class monitor! Your eye is okay now, right? We were young and didn't know any better, I hurt you back then, but I hope you're not taking it to heart!"
A slight smile erged on the corner of Ye Feng's mouth; this person was indeed his deputy class monitor back in the day.
However, this guy had the sa character as Akui, behaved badly at school, and was disciplined by Ye Feng several tis. Later, he wanted to find soone to beat Ye Feng but ended up with an injured eye corner, which still bore scars until this day!
Apart from that, this man was also a well-known wealthy young master in Jiangcheng County and his family ran a real estate business.
Su Peng, looking at the slight smile at the corner of Ye Feng's lips, clenched his teeth with irritation; the past events still lingered bitterly in his mory, but these past few years Ye Feng had been away, so he hadn't had the chance to trouble him.
"Of course, I won't hold it to heart; what's in the past is past!"
At this mont, a counterfeit smile appeared on Su Peng's lips, yet his heart plotted on how to exact revenge for the grudges of the past!
After seeing Su Peng conversing with Ye Feng, many other forr classmates also began to gather around.
"Ye Feng, haven't seen you for three years; you didn't even co to the reunion. Where are you working now?"
The question ca from a woman with large eyes; Ye Feng rembered her as the class representative back in the day, and it seed she was doing quite well for herself now.
"I'm a driver in Jiangnan City now!" said Ye Feng with a smile, then spoke directly.
Most of his old classmates, after finishing high school or even junior high, had dropped out. In a poor place like Jiangcheng County, producing a college student was indeed a rare occurrence.
"A driver? That's not bad! But among us, Wanqing is doing the best, followed by Su Peng! He has already taken over the family company, a real boss indeed!"
A male student seed to want to ingratiate himself with Su Peng, his words filled with admiration for Su Peng, and naturally, many other classmates did not want to fall behind, and so they said one after another,
"Ye Feng, you should toast to Su Peng later, let him arrange a job for you in Jiangcheng County, it's definitely not worse than being a driver in Jiangnan City!"
"That's right! Su Peng is in charge of more than a hundred people, and his company is thriving. Many are scrambling to get in!"
"Ye Feng, I think you should co back. What future is there in being a driver? You might get fired by your boss any day, and then it'll be too late even if you cry!"
...
The gossip of these old classmates left Ye Feng rather helpless.
As people enter society, class reunions tend to beco a place where the successful flaunt their superiority and the unsuccessful cling to their coattails, an atmosphere too opportunistic for Ye Feng's liking.
Su Peng, on the other hand, felt an enormous sense of face, especially in front of Ye Feng, who had once beaten him, he felt an innate sense of superiority.
Just as these people were lavishing praise on one another, Ye Feng's phone suddenly rang.
Glancing at the number, it was Zhang Xing, and Ye Feng imdiately picked up.
"Ye Feng, are you free tonight? My adoptive parents and I want to invite you for dinner to express our gratitude!"
Zhang Xing had specifically asked for Ye Feng's phone number before she left, but Ye Feng hadn't expected her to call so soon.
"Sorry, I'm afraid I don't have ti tonight!" said Ye Feng, unable to do otherwise, and imdiately declined.
Zhang Xing seed sowhat disappointed and then said, "Alright then! How about we have dinner after you attend the wedding tomorrow?"
"Okay then! Let's do it tomorrow night!" Ye Feng figured the wedding tomorrow afternoon should end early enough, leaving his evening free.
Seeing that Ye Feng agreed, Zhang Xing seed exceptionally happy:
"Then it's settled! You can't back out later, okay?"
"Got it! If a beauty is asking
out, of course I'm happy to oblige!" Ye Feng laughed, then bade farewell to Zhang Xing and hung up the phone.
Just as he had hung up, the class monitor Zhang Jing nudged Ye Feng and said with a teasing smile:
"Your girlfriend, huh? Why didn't you bring her along?"
Not just her, even the other classmates turned to look at Ye Feng.
"No! Just a friend," Ye Feng shrugged.
"What kind of friend? Ye Feng, you're not being honest! We old classmates all know that you hardly have any friends in Jiangcheng County, especially not girls," Zhang Jing's curiosity was piqued, and she continued to press for answers.
No wonder everyone was curious; Ye Feng was a loner during school days. Aside from the siblings Gua Wa, he wasn't close to anyone else.
Especially girls—Ye Feng knew even fewer, let alone a female friend he would be in phone contact with shortly after returning.
Seeing the curious looks from everyone, Ye Feng helplessly shook his head:
"Her na is Zhang Xing. She's a beautiful TV anchor from Hong Kong TVB!"
What??? The students around him first paused and then burst into roaring laughter.
"Haha... Ye Feng, I see you've developed a sense of humor after three years! TVB's Zhang Xing, you sure dare to say it!"
"Yeah! Ye Feng, you never joked before, but this joke really isn't funny! Who is Zhang Xing? She's one of China's most famous beauties, and the rich young n chasing her could line up a whole reinforced company!"
"I heard that Zhang Xing grew up in our Jiangcheng County when she was young, and only beca famous after moving away! Especially in our Jiangcheng County, her popularity is very high, even my parents are her fans!"
"Not just your parents, even my grandma likes Zhang Xing! But she's a phoenix that flies high, I heard her appearance fee has already surpassed those of dostic top-tier stars, costing tens of thousands for just a minute!"
At this mont, the classmates surrounding him all thought Ye Feng was just joking, no one took him seriously.
Ye Feng himself had not anticipated Zhang Xing's popularity to be so high, especially among his old classmates who were so enthusiastic.
"Hmph! Ye Feng, can't you draft your lies before you spout them? What status does Zhang Xing have, as if soone like you, a re driver, could be involved with her!"
At that mont, Su Peng looked at Ye Feng with disdain in his expression, his words dripping with heavy sarcasm!
