The reason why Liu Mang meticulously planned to dress up so meticulously was only to leave a good sense of what was going to happen in front of these important people in his eyes, so that he could accumulate and be the basis for boasting about his future development.

For example, the person in charge of their company in the Western region, Ye Xinghao, was a figure that he had not seen for almost a year. Just by being able to catch his eye, his future would be limitless.

Furthermore, from the looks of it, Ye Xinghao was just a side character at today's gathering, the real big shot was someone else.

Therefore, the importance that Liu Mang placed on this gathering had far surpassed the importance that Ye Xinghao had. It could even be said that he treated this gathering as his own stepping stone for the future.

However, never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that after he carefully put down the object in his arms, he would see a person the moment he wiped his sweat off. Moreover, that person's memory would quickly merge with his own, and a name would appear that he loathed.

That person was Lin Xi.

At that time, Ye Xinghao saw Liu Mang standing there in a daze, and couldn't help but frown, because at such an occasion, Liu Mang's actions were without a doubt extremely disrespectful, and others would only look down upon him, and reduce their impression of him.

Thinking up to here, Ye Xinghao had long scolded himself in his heart, "Why did you choose to follow him, it's useless."

At the same time, he was also curious about the reason behind Liu Mang's daze, and so he looked in the direction of Liu Mang's gaze.

What Ye Xinghao did not expect was that the one Liu Mang was looking at was Lin Xi. An idea immediately surfaced in his mind, and he laughed lightly: "Liu Mang, you know this Mr Lin Xi?"

Ye Xinghao's voice brought Liu Mang back to his senses, but his expression was extremely unnatural. It was clear that he did not know how to answer this question, and he was so embarrassed that he did not even know when the handkerchief in his hand fell to the ground.

"Mr. Liu Mang and I were classmates in high school. We even met a few days ago at a reunion."

Seeing that Lin Xi had stood forward to help him, Ang Youyong, who had just ran back with the tea leaves, was naturally not far behind. "We are also his classmates, can't you go, or what?"

Actually, the reason Lin Xi came out to help Liu Mang was not because he wanted to repay the favor with virtue, but because he had seen through Ye Xinghao's tricks.

Ang Youyong, on the other hand, could not bear to see Ye Xinghao's attitude. Even though he and Liu Mang were not rivals, after all, they were still classmates.

Seeing Lin Xi and Ang Youyong standing at the same time, Ye Xinghao laughed with interest: "So that's the case, I never thought that Mr Lin Xi and Immortal Saint Ang Youyong's classmate would actually be the Deputy General Manager of our Ye Family Jewelry Store, it's really fate, Liu Mang, don't you think so?"

Liu Mang suddenly felt that the sweat that he had just wiped off had uncontrollably seeped out. His back was drenched in cold sweat and his legs started to tremble uncontrollably. He was extremely terrified, but he had no choice but to answer Ye Xinghao's question.

"Yes, yes, fate, fate."

Long before today, Liu Mang had heard from Ye Xinghao that there was a very annoying person at today's gathering, and seeing their confrontation just now, it was undoubtedly Lin Xi.

However, Liu Mang was almost roaring in his heart, why did the grievances between you two have to be pulled on me? When he recalled his own coercion against Lin Xi the day before yesterday, he became even more terrified.

What made him fearful was that after Ye Xinghao found out that they were high school classmates and that they had even gathered together two days ago, there was a high possibility that he had some sort of prejudice against him that would affect his future.

Currently, he had already forgotten about Ye Xinghao's promise in his heart. He only hoped that he would be safe and sound when he returned home.

Also, Lin Xi had ridiculed him at the gathering, humiliated her, and forced him to do so not only to restore the face he had lost back then, but also to use him as a stepping stone to show off his achievements and show off his superiority.

Although he was saved by Lin Xi and his face was covered with dirt, in his heart, he still felt that he was a head above Lin Xi and he was similarly extremely proud and complacent in front of him.

But just a moment ago, the pride and complacency in Liu Mang's heart had already vanished like smoke in thin air. What he got in return was fear, panic and fear.

One must know that the people who could sit within this quiet room were all important figures that he was looking up to, and normally, he would only see this person because of his name, so even when Ye Xinghao came in, he would lower his voice and hold up the etiquette of a junior.

But as for Lin Xi, not only had he been sitting there since before Ye Xinghao had arrived, he was also happily conversing with other important figures. This also meant that Lin Xi's status and face in this quiet room was obviously even higher than Ye Xinghao's.

Even a fool could tell the difference!

Furthermore, the girl that was sitting beside Lin Xi, was extremely beautiful. He remembered that Ye Xinghao's main purpose in coming here was to get close to this girl, and did not hesitate to use the power of his clan.

But now, the girl was sitting beside Lin Xi, talking and laughing with Lin Xi, not caring at all about his arrival. She only nodded slightly in greeting, completely ignoring him.

Liu Mang thought back to when he said that Lin Xi did not have a girlfriend at the reunion. Then, who was the girl who was sitting next to Lin Xi and laughing intimately with him?

Then, he thought about how he had said that he was incapable, powerless, and unemployed. Then, the position that he was sitting on now was something that even the person in charge of the company in Western China, Ye Xinghao, couldn't sit on, it could even be said to be a dream.

Ye Xinghao was currently seated at the outer area. To put it bluntly, he was an uninvited outsider.

Thinking to this point, Liu Mang finally understood why Lin Xi didn't argue with him at the reunion. It wasn't that he couldn't, nor was it that he didn't want to, but rather, he felt disdain for the two of them because their statuses and statuses were no longer on the same social level.

At that time, Ang Youyong sat down next to Qin Yu. Liu Mang, who originally thought that he was on par with her, was also secretly regretting in his heart. Turns out that Ang Youyong and Lin Xi were both pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, no wonder the two of them had always been wearing the same pants.

If not for the huge gap in social status between the two of them, Liu Mang would never believe that Ang Youyong would only stand up for the sake of a so-called classmate friendship, and that the two of them, who were of the same social status, would even support each other.
