    Then there was Zhang Zhisheng’s boss who owned a big company, and Fan Yun was even more eager to buddy up to Zhang Zhisheng.

    “Yeah, our Brother Sheng is now the big boss with annual turnovers of tens of millions, we can’t fawn over him enough.

    I’m not pretty, but if Brother Sheng courted me like that, I would have pledged myself to him long ago.”

    Cheng Min said with a laugh, then cast a flirty glance at Zhang Zhisheng.

    Zhang Zhisheng smiled slightly, not refusing the attention.

    Zhao Xiaoyuan was even less willing to show weakness; he’s the notorious sycophant of the private room.

    How could he miss out at a time like this?

    “It’s not that Big Boss Zhang doesn’t fancy you, beauty Cheng, but he’s still true to his first love, pining for someone all these years, hence he’s been single.”

    Right after, Zhao Xiaoyuan turned his gaze towards Lan Kexin.

    Everyone understood Zhao Xiaoyuan’s implication – Zhang Zhisheng’s heart still belongs to you, Lan Kexin, so you’d better appreciate it.

    Lan Kexin remained unmoved, smiling as if she knew nothing.

    Everybody drank, raising toasts to Zhang Zhisheng.

    Fan Yun continued with a laugh, “My Kexin, the great campus beauty, finding a boyfriend isn’t like picking cabbage.

    What is love?

    That stuff is just for movies, made for people to watch.

    Women gotta find someone with power and influence.

    How can men with no money, no power, and no future guarantee your future, hm?”

    After Fan Yun’s speech, everyone applauded.

    Wang Jiangtao laughed, “Whoever becomes Big Boss Zhang’s woman is sure to enjoy a lifetime of glory, wealth, and endless comfort.”

    Wang Jiangtao was eager to lavish praise on Zhang Zhisheng, hoping to open more channels in the building materials market for him.

    Zhang Zhisheng, however, shook his head with a smile, “Don’t be so modest, Boss Wang. Sear?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    Your building materials store is doing very well, and one day you might even surpass me.”

    “Dare not, dare not, I haven’t even dreamed of it, just earning a few million to appear somewhat human…”

    “By your words, some people aren’t living like humans at all.”

    The classmates all burst into laughter.

    Ning Fan just smiled faintly, looked at the lavish dinner on the table, and without raising his head, went back to eating.

    …

    After several drinks, everyone was a bit tipsy, each one flattering the others, of course, with insinuations of mockery toward Ning Fan included.

    Ning Fan totally ignored everyone’s ridicule; he hadn’t even had a proper meal at Xu Rongfei’s, so he wasn’t about to miss out here and buried himself in eating.

    Cheng Min thought Ning Fan looked like an honest guy who was easy to bully as she saw him focused solely on eating.

    Cheng Min whispered to Ning Fan, “Eat up, this kind of fancy meal isn’t something everyone can afford.”

    Ning Fan paid no attention to Cheng Min’s sneering.

    “Not to mention, this one dish is worth hundreds, average people really can’t afford it.”

    “Then we have to thank Brother Sheng for his generous hospitality, for preparing this sumptuous feast for us.”

    Hearing everyone’s praise for Zhang Zhisheng, and the mockery and exclusion of Ning Fan, Lan Kexin couldn’t sit still.

    Lan Kexin was very annoyed now.

    What kind of class reunion was this?

    It was clearly a wealth flaunting contest.

    Flaunting wealth was one thing, but why did they always have to drag her and Ning Fan into it?

    Neither of them had said anything.

    Lan Kexin signaled to Ning Fan.

    Ning Fan noticed Lan Kexin’s gesture, and he signaled back to her.

    “Don’t get agitated, it’s just a class reunion, meant to be fun.

    Just bear with it, and it’ll be over.”

    Lan Kexin understood that Ning Fan was really able to keep his cool; since Ning Fan wasn’t angry, she had no choice but to suppress her anger and maintain a smile on the surface.

    Zhang Zhisheng’s feelings for Lan Kexin had begun since college, and he had always fancied her.

    He came to this class reunion specifically for Lan Kexin, only to have a security guard pop up halfway!

    He sneered, this little security guard wants to compete with me for a woman?

    My spit could drown you, let alone the money that could bury you.

    Zhang Zhisheng looked at Ning Fan with a sneer, then stood up and raised his glass for a toast to Ning Fan.

    Ning Fan didn’t even glance at him and sat down, drinking the wine in his glass to the dregs.

    Zhang Zhisheng was slightly stunned, but then smiled, a country bumpkin is still a country bumpkin, not even understanding the basic etiquette of toasting.

    He wasn’t angry, but continued to smile and asked, “Ning brother, how much money do you make a month working as a security guard?”

    Ning Fan thought, is Zhang Zhisheng trying to use money to crush me?

    Ning Fan responded indifferently, “Not much.”

    What kind of attitude is this?

    Everyone showed their disdain.

    This little security guard dared to ignore Zhang Zhisheng’s words and even let Zhang Zhisheng toast him; that’s absurd!

    The corner of Zhang Zhisheng’s mouth twitched slightly, yet he continued with a smile,

    “If Ning brother isn’t satisfied with his salary, I have a friend who owns a company.

    Why not join my friend’s company?

    You would make at least five or six thousand a month there.

    If you think that’s too little, come to my company.

    We are currently recruiting for a security captain.”

    “If you come, considering Kexin’s face, I could offer you ten thousand.

    If that seems too little, I’ll add more!”

    Zhao Xiaoyuan hurriedly brownnosed, “Damn, Brother Sheng is Brother Sheng, even offering a security guard’s salary that’s higher than others’, we’ve been living in vain all these years.”

    Cheng Min uttered a “Tsk” sound.

    “Just look who it is.

    Brother Sheng is now a big boss with a net worth of tens of millions.

    You guys can’t compare to him, let alone a certain someone.”

    “Yes, yes, yes.”

    People toasted to Zhang Zhisheng again, showering him with many compliments.

    Yet Ning Fan completely ignored Zhang Zhisheng’s words and simply said “Oh” in a noncommittal tone, then kept on eating his meal.

    Everyone showed disdain towards Ning Fan again, “What kind of person is this?

    He’s so uncultured.”

    Zhang Zhisheng chuckled heartily.

    He felt that he had definitely dealt a deep blow to Ning Fan’s confidence, making Ning Fan feel inferior and unable even to raise his head to speak.

    And his magnanimity would surely leave a good impression on Lan Kexin!

    However, Ning Fan simply disdained to respond to him.

    This guy dares to show off in front of me with assets of just tens of millions?

    Just then, a female classmate, Niuniu, said she had an emergency and went out to use the bathroom, and her male classmate beside her also said he had an emergency and followed her out.

    At this moment, Zhang Zhisheng saw that everyone had almost finished eating, so he glanced at Lan Kexin, whose face was slightly flushed.

    Taking advantage of the alcohol, Zhang Zhisheng said to Lan Kexin in a low voice, “Kexin, I really like you.”

    Upon hearing this, Lan Kexin didn’t even give Zhang Zhisheng the time of day, standing up and sitting next to Ning Fan.

    Seeing that Ning Fan was still eating and drinking, she picked out a dish, “Fanfan, try this dish, it’s delicious.”

    With an affectionate tone, Lan Kexin addressed Ning Fan and then took a bottle of fine wine, pouring it into Ning Fan’s glass.

    She said to Ning Fan with a giggly smile,

    “These dishes are all pretty good, but don’t drink too much.

    It’s bad for your health.

    This will be the last cup.”

    Everyone: “…”
