Back in college, Song Yun was very popular, not just within our class or department, but throughout the entire college, people knew him. Everyone liked to interact with Song Yun, and at that time, Sun Lei was very envious of Song Yun's social skills.
But now that we've graduated, everyone has started to chase money, to aim higher, and Sun Lei believes that he himself is doing quite well, extremely well.
However, to his surprise, upon meeting up, people still gathered around Song Yun...
Sun Lei was so angry on the sidelines that he was nearly crushing his beer bottle, while the others frolicked and laughed in the distance.
"Song Yun, tell me how exactly do you maintain your figure and looks! You're just like a freshman who has just started college!"
"Brother Song, remember the time we snuck out to go online, and your down jacket got caught on the hook, you jumped and sent feathers flying everywhere, and in the end, someone from the dorm had to bring you a new one. Ah, now I can't handle all-nighters anymore, I feel like I'm dying, I miss that body from back then!"
Listening to everyone's chat, Sun Lei disdainfully said, "Nostalgia for the past is useless, we can't go back anymore. What's important now is to look forward and strive for success. Eventually, we'll see who's done better, who's made the most money, right?"
When Sun Lei spoke up, nobody responded, and there was an awkward silence.
Originally, everyone had been living the daily grind of corporate drones, not only facing workplace pressures but also being micromanaged by superiors, sometimes having their work interfered with. It was already tough, and the reason they'd agreed to come was to relax a bit and reminisce about their university days with classmates, but Sun Lei's words pulled everyone back to reality.
All of us are ordinary people; frankly speaking, our family conditions are only middle-class. In a place like the Magic Capital, it's impossible to mix well relying on family influence.
And yet Sun Lei insisted on poking at sore spots.
Seeing no one talking, Sun Lei shamelessly continued, "Song Yun, I'm asking you, what have you been up to all these years after graduation? After all, we're all adults now, getting to know each other a bit is of no harm. We might need each other's help someday."
Sun Lei was actually losing his composure by now, but he had long been blinded by rage, unable to maintain any decency.
To be honest, Song Yun wasn't very familiar with Sun Lei. Hearing him ask like that, he casually replied, "Just managing a little business, not making much money."
Upon hearing that, Sun Lei's face slowly showed a trace of disdain. A little business? Maybe just running a small shop, huh?
If it were about starting a business or a project, he would definitely boast in front of everyone about owning a company. If he worked at some big corporation, he would surely say his company was a top-ranking global firm.
As for the "little business" out of Song Yun's mouth, who knows what that could involve!
Watching the classmates fawn over Sun Lei in conversation, Ye Zi muttered disdainfully, "An annual salary of hundreds of thousands? That's nothing! The car my Brother Song drives is worth hundreds of years of your salary!"
However, no one knew about Song Yun's current situation, and they could only play it by ear, figuring that it couldn't hurt to curry favor with Sun Lei first.
After the meal, Sun Lei led everyone back to the villa. A group of people gathered in the living room to play games, and it seemed that everyone's attention had shifted to Sun Lei.
Amidst the flattery and adulation, Sun Lei's head swelled with pride, utterly enjoying the moment.
It was damn exhilarating!
He had finally experienced the joy that Song Yun felt!
As the night deepened and everyone grew tired, Sun Lei stood up, intending to assign the rooms.
He looked at the layout of the rooms, placing several attractive girls in the secondary bedroom and his close friends in the spacious guest rooms.
As for those close to Song Yun, they were assigned to the most ordinary guest rooms.
Now, only he and Song Yun were left without rooms assigned.
A cold smile crossed his heart; only the master bedroom was left, which was definitely meant for him. As for Song Yun, sorry about that, but you'll have to sleep on the sofa!
But just then, Song Yun walked straight toward the master bedroom.
Song Yun didn't care about all the room allocations; he only knew that this was his home, and even if he didn't sleep in the master bedroom, no one else would dare to step a foot inside!
"What are you doing? You're heading to the master bedroom!"
Sun Lei panicked and yelled at Song Yun's retreating back.
He had specifically reserved the master bedroom for himself; he hadn't lived in such a nice room for so many years, and if he didn't enjoy it now, who knew when the next opportunity would come?
Song Yun turned to look at Sun Lei, anger rising in his eyes. Sun Lei was as annoying as a fly, causing trouble non-stop from the way he spoke to the present, and Song Yun didn't understand what he had done to provoke him.
