Chapter 787: Chapter 851 Old Classmate Chapter 787: Chapter 851 Old Classmate Chapter Eight Hundred and Fifty-One
The school was already on holiday, and the business school had finished even earlier.
After her vacation started, Chun Tao managed the Sihai Hotel while waiting for Long Xiaoshan.
The hotel was originally a gift from Wang Sihai to Long Xiaoshan, who then passed it on to Chun Tao.
Besides her studies at school, Chun Tao secretly ran the hotel, transforming what she had learned into practical application.
It’s probably safe to say that there wasn’t a second person in the business school who could practice with a four-star hotel at their disposal.
Only Long Xiaoshan could afford such a grand gesture.
Long Xiaoshan drove to the hotel in a regular dostic SUV.
...
He owned countless luxury cars, not least the twenty-odd sports cars, each worth over a million, extorted from a bunch of young rich brats, now sitting at Wanlong Mountain.
However, he usually kept a low profile and rarely drove those top-tier sports cars.
After parking the car, Long Xiaoshan strolled into the hotel lobby, took out his phone, and called Chun Tao.
He couldn’t be bothered to go up there himself; the chairman’s office was on the top floor.
Once the call connected, he asked Chun Tao to co down so they could go back to the village together.
As soon as Chun Tao received his call, she was overjoyed and quickly agreed.
“Are you Long Xiaoshan?”
Just as Long Xiaoshan hung up, he saw a young man in his twenties approaching and sizing him up.
Narrowing his eyes, Long Xiaoshan looked at the man and said, “Qiao Bin?”
“It really is you!
You’ve changed so much, I almost didn’t recognize you.” The young man expressed his surprise.
He rembered Long Xiaoshan used to be dark and skinny in class, the very picture of malnutrition, but now Long Xiaoshan was tall and robust, his physique athletic and sleek, his skin fair and handso.
If not for the slight similarities in facial features, he would seem like a completely different person compared to before.
“You’ve changed quite a bit too,” Long Xiaoshan said with a slight smile, extending his hand to shake Qiao Bin’s.
Qiao Bin was the forr deputy class monitor in their high school class.
His family was quite poor, both parents laid-off workers.
But Qiao Bin was also very determined.
He always ranked just below Long Xiaoshan in academics, and later, it was said that he got into Zhonghai University.
However, the two had a very ordinary relationship in the past and spoke only a few words to each other in three years.
Apart from academics, where Long Xiaoshan always had the upper hand over Qiao Bin, the two differed because Qiao Bin was more realistic, or to put it bluntly, he was better at currying favor, a completely different character from Long Xiaoshan.
Seeing Qiao Bin dressed in GUCCI, his hair slick and shiny, carrying himself with an air of distinction, Long Xiaoshan thought.
Considering Qiao Bin’s age, he must be a senior by now.
Given his family background, he could only be slightly better off than Long Xiaoshan used to be, which is why Long Xiaoshan said he had changed a lot.
“Oh, not at all,” Qiao Bin said, though his eyes couldn’t hide a hint of uncontrollable pride.
“Qiao Bin, who are you talking to?”
A sowhat dissatisfied female voice ca through, and Long Xiaoshan looked towards the source, his mouth twitching for a mont.
He saw a woman shaped like a round ball approaching.
Long Xiaoshan wasn’t one to judge people by their looks, but this woman, despite being so overweight, was plastered with makeup, her face heavily done up, and bedecked in shiny jewelry—by Long Xiaoshan’s standards, it was hard to accept.
When the woman reached Qiao Bin’s side, she wrapped an arm around Qiao Bin’s, eyeing Long Xiaoshan, her eyes lighting up.
She realized that Long Xiaoshan was also tall and handso, and her gaze kept wandering over Long Xiaoshan’s strong muscles.
Long Xiaoshan felt a chill run down his spine.
He quickly circulated his True Qi, and imdiately, he appeared extrely ordinary.
The plump woman blinked, wondering if she had been seeing things.
When she first ca over, she thought Long Xiaoshan was exceptionally handso, but in the blink of an eye, he seed so ordinary, like soone you couldn’t find in a crowd.
The chubby woman suddenly lost interest and could not be bothered to look at Long Xiaoshan any longer.
She commanded a dismissive tone, “Qiao Bin, my dad is about to arrive, and you’re still not at the door to welco him.
What are you loafing around for?”
“Oh, my dear, let introduce you.
This is my high school classmate Long Xiaoshan.
We just happened to et, so I just said hello,” Qiao Bin said.
Turning to Long Xiaoshan, Qiao Bin added, “Xiaoshan, this is my girlfriend Liu Shishi, the daughter of President Liu of Hongyuan Construction.”
When Qiao Bin ntioned Hongyuan Construction, there was a tinge of pride in his voice.
Although Hongyuan Construction was a small company, its total assets still exceeded one hundred million.
For ordinary people, it was a height they could never reach in their lifetis.
Qiao Bin had hoped to see Long Xiaoshan’s envious gaze, but Long Xiaoshan’s expression remained unchanged, calmly greeting, “Hello there.”
Liu Shishi scoffed, “You’re Qiao Bin’s classmate, you must be doing your internship this year, right?
Don’t say I don’t look out for you.
If you’re looking for a job in the future, you can ask Qiao Bin to arrange it.”
Long Xiaoshan smiled and responded, “Sure, thanks.”
“Shishi, you’re mistaken there.
My classmate is a brilliant student from Shuimu, and he might not set his sights on our Hongyuan,” Qiao Bin said with a smile.
“From Shuimu?” Liu Shishi was slightly surprised; Shuimu, being one of the top two universities in Huaxia, certainly carried a significant reputation and had a strong impact on ordinary people.
However, she soon sneered, “So what about Shuimu?
Wasn’t there news recently?
A Yan University graduate went back ho to raise pigs.
Shuimu and Yan University aren’t much different, starting salaries can hardly hit ten thousand yuan right after graduation.”
Qiao Bin laughed, “That’s actually true.
Indeed, university graduates these days are less valued than dogs, and upon graduation, it’s unemploynt.
Although Shuimu and Yan University graduates certainly can’t be unemployed, with such fierce competition, finding a high-paying job isn’t easy.
Xiaoshan, you can’t aim too high.
Our Hongyuan is quite strong, and if you join our company, I can guarantee you a salary of twenty thousand, with commissions on top for good performance.”
Long Xiaoshan touched his nose and said, “Ah, Qiao Bin, thanks for your kind offer, but I don’t need it for now.”
Liu Shishi snorted, “You think twenty thousand is too little?”
Qiao Bin shook his head, about to say sothing when suddenly.
They heard the hurried clicking of high heels on the floor.
The three turned their heads.
They saw an exquisitely beautiful woman, quickly walking toward them.
This woman was wearing a light gray woolen trench coat, a white tight woolen sweater underneath, and pencil pants in gray paired with high heels, assembled in a style that was both trendy and professional.
Even in a four-star hotel frequented by beautiful won, she stood out for her extraordinary looks.
Qiao Bin was puzzled.
Suddenly, the woman threw herself into Long Xiaoshan’s arms, exclaiming, “Xiaoshan!”
Long Xiaoshan, holding Chun Tao, was filled with joy.
No matter how many won he had on the outside, Chun Tao was always the most special one.
He held her tightly, bending down to kiss her lips.
Chun Tao’s face flushed with a hint of shyness, but she did not shy away.
Her eyes brimd with softness, admiration, and love as she gazed at Long Xiaoshan, completely oblivious to everything around her.
Qiao Bin’s face was indescribably odd.
A trace of jealousy flashed through his eyes.
Long Xiaoshan actually had such a beautiful girlfriend.
Compared to the woman now embracing Long Xiaoshan, Liu Shishi seed crude and vulgar, unbearable to look at.
That was a feeling that not all the money in the world could replace.
