Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Attending the High School Reunioni

The two of them quickly arrived at the five-star hotel.

When they reached the entrance, Ye Fan parked the car before he and Zhao Xiaotian got out together.

As soon as they got off, they headed towards the lobby.

The reservation was for six o’clock, and they were right on time. When they entered the lobby, they had only a few minutes left, mainly due to traffic congestion.

At this mealtime, the roads were quite jammed with traffic.

Hello, sir, may I ask if you two have reserved a private room?” the cheongsam-clad waitress asked politely.

This young man is really handsome, and his clothes seem to be quite special, while the other one seemed rather ordinary.

The woman in the cheongsam thought to herself but her face showed no change.

Yes, we’re here for a class reunion, last name Lin, Lin Han,” Ye Fan replied.

Lm Han was their high school’s study committee member, and it was Lin Han who had organized this class reunion.

I understand, Mr. Lin’s private room is this way, please.”

Following the waitress, Ye Fan and Zhao Xiaotian went up to the second floor and arrived at the “Smooth Sailing” private room.

“This is the private room booked by Mr. Lin, and many people have already arrived, please come in.” The waitress knocked and then pushed open the door of the private room.

Upon opening it, everyone sitting at the three tables inside the “Smooth Sailing” private room turned their heads, looking at the handsome Ye Fan and the delicate Zhao Xiaotian.

Surprise instantly filled the crowd.

“Ye Fan, Xiaotian, you’ve arrived, come sit, come sit!” Lin Han saw Ye Fan and Zhao Xiaotian arriving and immediately stood up with a smile, beckoning them to sit down.

“You two really timed it perfectly, hehe, take a seat, don’t just stand there, we were just waiting for you,” Lin Han said.

“Yeah, yeah, come sit down.”

“There’s an empty spot here, come sit over here.”

Everyone spoke up one after another.

In the end, Ye Fan and Zhao Xiaotian took their seats next to Lin Han, and right beside Ye Fan was the former class president, He Xiaoxiao.

As He Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Fan, her eyes sparkled, a hint of a smile flashing across them.

She hadn’t expected him to actually show up.

After more than a year, he seemed even more handsome and even more radiant than before.

“Today, I’ve gathered everyone here, of course, it’s been over a year, I just want us all to have a good time together, don’t be shy, order whatever you’d like, it’s on me!” Lin Han said in a loud and boisterous tone.

“Great, the entire meal is on young master Lin!”

“Young master Lin is really generous.”

“Yeah, if it weren’t for young master Lin footing the bill, we wouldn’t have managed to get together like this.”

Everyone opened up with their comments.

“Come on, let’s toast to young master Lin,” the crowd said, raising their glasses.

Ye Fan looked at the alcohol in front of him and felt a bit troubled.

Both he and Zhao Xiaotian couldn’t drink, after all, they’d have to drive later, and if they both drank, they’d have to call someone to drive them, which would be such a hassle.

Just as Ye Fan was about to say something, Zhao Xiaotian downed a glass of alcohol.

Having no choice, Ye Fan poured himself a cup of tea to toast with everyone. Xie Zhi, who was sitting nearby, saw this and immediately became unwilling. “Ye Fan, why are you substituting tea for alcohol, why can’t you drink?” Xie Zhi frowned as he looked at Ye Fan.

What’s this, looking down on them?

“I have to drive later, I can’t drink alcohol,” Ye Fan replied indifferently, glancing at Xie Zhi. This guy had some issues with him in high school, and it seemed that after more than a year, things hadn’t changed.

“What driving? Are you still doing part-time work, driving people around for a quick buck?” Xie Zhi said with a laugh, his eyes full of mockery.

Indeed, a pauper is still a pauper.

Whenever there’s no class or a holiday, he’s working part-time jobs, just as before.

Heh!

“I say, how can you talk like that,” Zhao Xiaotian suddenly stood up, glaring at Xie Zhi.

This guy, still the same old problem.

Hasn’t changed at all.

Still looking down on people like a snob.

“Did I say something wrong? In high school, wasn’t Ye Fan always working part-time jobs to earn money?” Xie Zhi said, his gaze mockingly fixed on the two of them.

See, what’s the use of being good at studying? Still ends up a pauper.

“Damn it, I can’t take it anymore with my temper,” Zhao Xiaotian said, about to confront Xie Zhi.

Unexpectedly, he was held back by Ye Fan.

“If a dog bites you, are you going to bite back? It’s just a dog barking for no reason. What’s there to care about? Just let the dog be,” Ye Fan said, pulling Zhao Xiaotian down to sit and giving him a piece of meat to eat.

Xie Zhi, on the side, was so angry he was about to lose his mind, his eyes turning red as if he couldn’t wait to go a few rounds with Ye Fan.

“Enough, don’t embarrass yourself further,” Lin Han growled lowly at Xie Zhi.

Xie Zhi was now with him, so if Xie Zhi lost face, it was the same as him losing face.

‘Everyone is a classmate, and it’s not easy to get together. Don’t argue over small things. Let’s eat,’ the class president He Xiaoxiao said at that moment.

In high school, He Xiaoxiao was both the class president and the class beauty.

At another table, Xia Lili said nothing, just watching this scene the whole time.

She transferred to Ye Fan’s class in senior year, and that’s when she started to have a crush on him, but he never paid any attention to her, after all, at that time she wasn’t good at dressing up and was a bit ugly.

The whole class was revolving around the class president He Xiaoxiao, and she knew it well; He Xiaoxiao also liked Ye Fan.

Back then, He Xiaoxiao nearly confessed her feelings to Ye Fan.

It’s just that something happened later on.

You see, there were a lot of boys who liked He Xiaoxiao back then, but it seemed Ye Fan wasn’t interested in relationships or girls and never bothered with these.

It wasn’t until she got into college that she started to pursue Ye Fan and finally caught him, leading to all the events that followed.

“Okay, I’ll listen to the class president,” Xie Zhi said.

Lm Han, who was beside him, looked deeply at Ye Fan but said nothing.

Everyone was eating, and Ye Fan turned his head to look at the class president He Xiaoxiao.

He wanted to know if Fang Da Jian had come; he seemed not to have seen Da Jian earlier.

“Class president, did Fang Da Jian come?” Ye Fan asked, looking at He Xiaoxiao.

‘Uh, he said he would come earlier, but then mentioned he was stuck in traffic on the way and might be late, telling us not to wait for him,’ He Xiaoxiao said, her face reddening slightly, her eyes darting away from Ye Fan’s gaze.

Yeah, Ye Fan was still as gentle as before.

The way he looked at her was so gentle.

He Xiaoxiao felt her heart pounding so hard it felt like it would jump out.

“I see,” a flicker of worry passed through Ye Fan’s eyes.

He glanced again at the entrance of the private room.

He wondered if Fang Da Jian would be able to make it.

Sigh, after the college entrance exams were over, Fang Da Jian disappeared, changing all his contact information.

This guy, did he ever really see himself and Xiaotian as brothers?
