Chapter 515
“Wu Mengmeng?”
Hearing this name, Lin Ran couldn’t help but look stunned and fell into a memory.
For three years in high school, Wu Mengmeng had been his tablemate, and at that early age of love, he had fantasised about it, but it was only a fantasy.
He even asked Lin Ran to switch seats in order to pursue the former, but the teacher was so strict that Lin Ran did not dare to switch, and what he got in the end was a severe beating.
Luckily, when he was sore, he could see Wu Mengmeng’s smile, which is why Lin Ran still insisted on not changing his seat even after the beating.
But people are always realistic, and after graduating from high school Lin Ran lost contact with her, and because he didn’t have a mobile phone, Lin Ran didn’t even add to his cla*s group until he met Cai Peng again.
“What? Thinking of your first love?”
On the side, Li Qiu covered her mouth and laughed, but there was mockery in her eyes.
“A poor man still wants to fall in love with a school girl, it’s like a toad eating a frog, playing with quite a flower!”
“No, it’s not considered first love!”
Lin Ran laughed indifferently.
“Is that so? Unrequited love?”
Li Qiu laughed, but in his heart he scoffed.
“A school beauty can look at you? Don’t tease, it’s a laugh, even if you find a random one, I’m afraid they won’t even look at you, poor as hell, would anyone look at you?”
The two of them chatted with each other, and soon students arrived one after another.
The first to arrive was naturally not Dai Yin, but a cla*smate named Ah Shui, who Lin Ran remembered as being one of the more active top students in the cla*s, but they didn’t have much of a friendship, so Lin Ran just smiled at the other.
However, Lin Ran still overestimated his group of cla*smates a little, the other party didn’t even look at him from the beginning to the end, completely treating him like air.
“Hey hey, Ah Shui let me introduce you, do you remember this one!”
Li Qiu didn’t have the heart to make small talk with Ah Shui and immediately got to the point, Lin Ran was the purpose of her gathering of cla*smates this time.
“Him? Isn’t he a ragpicker? Don’t you know him?”
Ah Shui asked with a frown, he had always thought that Lin Ran was a rag collector and didn’t care at all.
“Haha!”
Li Qiu laughed at his words, pointing at Lin Ran and laughing.
“Stop it, this is the great talent of our cla*s, Lin Ran, what rag collector, how dare you tell the big truth!”
“Huh? Lin Ran?”
Ah Shui was visibly taken aback at his words and was busy looking at Lin Ran twice before he realised it was indeed him.
“Oops, sorry! Old cla*smates didn’t recognise you, you’ve changed too much!”
Ah Shui was embarra*sed, but there was some disdain in his eyes, obviously Lin Ran had become such a mixed-up person, he was in no mood to defend his cla*smate’s friendship.
After chatting with Lin Ran for a while, Ah Shui chatted with Li Qiu, and Lin Ran really became an air of indifference.
Only a few female cla*smates gave him a glance when they arrived, followed by an expression of disgust, obviously treating him as a rag collector.
As time pa*sed, Li Qiu was quiet this time and did not continue to introduce Lin Ran to the crowd, as if she was brewing something.
After all, with Lin Ran’s knowledge of her, this guy was no slouch, pulling himself straight from the mall and not even letting himself buy clothes, obviously ready to give himself a good taunt.
Sure enough, when a bunch of cla*smates were almost here, Cai Peng also rushed over, and as soon as he got out of the taxi, Li Qiu spoke up.
“Hey hey, Cai Peng is here!”
The group of students all looked over at the sound of his words and saw Cai Peng driving a taxi and couldn’t help but laugh, but many of them were still amused and scoffed except for Li Qiu who was also Ah Shui.
“I say baozi, I heard that you are not opening a company in the field? How come you’re driving a taxi? Did you rent a car to come back for New Year’s Eve?”
Ah Shui laughed, he is now working in a foreign company, although also outside, but this time back is driving a BMW, this brand face definitely to dump Cai Peng a street.
“Ah Shui, how to talk, Cai Peng’s family just had some business problems, it will be up later!”
Li Qiu said, this time the target is Lin Ran, Cai Peng she is not interested in.
“You’re broke? Do you need my help? After all, you are an old cla*smate, you at least have some base, or can help a little, unlike some people picking up rags for a living, we just can not help ah!”
A Shui laughed, and the moment he said that, a group of students around him laughed, but they didn’t notice that A Shui was talking about Lin Ran, who was standing on the sidelines.
Lin Ran was not angry either, and watched his performance quietly with interest.
“Kid, your group of cla*smates are so inhuman, taunting you like that!”
“And you, take out your skills by being counted so much!”
The pillow book was angry, at least Lin Ran was now its master, its own master was so mocked, it as a book was a bit unbearable to watch.
“What’s the hurry, the green hills don’t change, let their taunts, fly for a while!”
Lin Ran said indifferently, not taking it to heart at all.
“Alright, alright, Cai Peng hurry up and come over, counting you it’s just short of Dai Yin and Meng Meng!”
Li Qiu greeted her, although she was a gold-digger she knew the importance of connections, Cai Peng had run a company after all, as for Lin Ran in her eyes, he was just mud, he couldn’t stick to the wall.
While the crowd was talking, there was a loud roar of a car and all eyes looked over.
From a distance, the crowd could feel the impact of the sound wave, and even saw a young man inside the car who was handsome and elegant.
“Look it’s Dai Yin, Dai Yin has brought it!”
Li Qiu exclaimed, the envious earnestness on her face undisguised, not at all like how a young woman should act.
“Wow, the latest Bentley supercar hey, so jealous!”
“Yeah, I’m afraid this car must cost ten million!”
“No, but it’s about the same, whoever can marry Dai Yin is simply married into a rich family!”
“It’s like going for a ride up there!”
A crowd of students were envious.
The car stopped, followed by a young man in a designer suit, wearing a designer watch and even sungla*ses worth a lot of money then jumped down.
“Old cla*smates, have you missed me yet!”
Dai Yin greeted with a smile as he took off his sungla*ses, and at once everyone gathered around, some to chat with him, and more to look at his supercar.
“Ranzi, why did you come!”
Cai Peng stood next to Lin Ran and said with a bitter smile.
Lin Ran sniffed and glanced at him before laughing.
“We are cla*smates, let’s make friends if we have friendship, and let’s end it if we don’t!”
“You really have a good mentality!”
Cai Peng laughed bitterly.
While the two were talking, Dai Yin’s gaze had swept through the crowd and finally landed on Cai Peng.
“Hey Cai Peng, it’s been a long time! Where’s Lin Ran? Didn’t you say he would come too? Where is it?”
Sure enough, just like Li Qiu, Dai Yin had come for himself this time.
Lin Ran smiled and shook his head, it seemed that there were some people and things that had to be done today as well.
“Hey hey, isn’t that Lin Ran! You didn’t even see this!”
On the side, Li Qiu could not hold back long ago, pointing at Lin Ran next to Cai Peng and laughing.
“What? He’s Lin Ran?”
Dai Yin was stunned, even the group of students beside him were all frozen, no one except Ah Shui knew he was Lin Ran just now, and Li Qiu had deliberately not explained at all, waiting for this moment.
Dai Yin swept his gaze over the crowd, followed by falling on Lin Ran, and instantly smiled.
“I say Lin learner, this shouldn’t be, how did the titular learner become a ragpicker, look at everyone, you seem to be the one who is the most miserable in the mix!”
Chapter 516
“Yeah Lin Ran, is this still you? At first in school the teacher seemed to keep stressing that everyone should learn like you!”
“Haha, don’t make a scene the teacher was joking, if the teacher knew that now he was a ragpicker, I’m afraid he’d be so angry he’d crawl out of his grave!”
“Holy Sh*t, how come none of us said he was Lin Ran when we first arrived, I thought he was a rag picker waiting!”
“Who isn’t? You guys are so bad, this is our cla*smate too after all!”
The crowd of students were talking, while Dai Yin laughed.
“Well, well, it’s not Li Qiu’s fault, after all, even I didn’t recognise him, I’m afraid only Cai Peng, who is the closest to him, will be able to recognise him!”
“Haha, you’ve hit the nail on the head, Dai Shao!”
A Shui laughed at the same time, it was obvious that people are divided by their own kind!
“Alright, let’s go in, we’re all here!”
There were a few students who weren’t too bad, they were all cla*smates after all, and when they saw Dai Yin and the three of them mocking Lin Ran and Cai Peng, some people couldn’t stand it.
“Wait, people aren’t all here yet!”
Li Qiu was busy speaking up.
“Not all of them are here? Who else hasn’t come?”
Dai Yin asked with a smile, but in fact he knew in his heart that he was just deliberately asking to irritate Lin Ran.
“Who else do you think, of course it’s our school beauty, Wu Mengmeng!”
Li Qiu laughed.
“Mengmeng?”
“Indeed Meng Meng hasn’t come yet!”
The other students said one after another, but more people looked at Lin Ran, everyone knew that Wu Meng Meng was Lin Ran’s tablemate, and when they were at school, there were many people saying that Lin Ran liked her.
“Looks like Meng Meng knows that this guy is here too, so she doesn’t want to come!”
Dai Yin laughed, and the others next to him smiled at that, although they had nothing against Lin Jean, but going with the flow would be for anyone, after all, no one wanted to be on Lin Ran’s side of the camp at this time.
“Hey, speaking of Meng Meng, I do I do remember something, who was it that said at first that Lin Ran was a great talent and his future achievements would certainly be extraordinary, tsk! I don’t know if the person who said that would sew his mouth shut when he saw what happened now!”
“Haha!”
As soon as Dai Yin said this, everyone laughed, especially Li Qiu and Ah Shui, who laughed so brightly that they didn’t even try to hide it.
“Ranzi, let’s go!”
Cai Peng’s old face was red, if it wasn’t for him Lin Ran wouldn’t have been able to come to this reunion, let alone be mocked by such former old cla*smates, at this moment he hated himself for being cheap and sending the news of seeing Lin Ran to the cla*smate group.
“It’s okay.”
Lin Ran laughed indifferently, from the beginning to the end, there was no expression fluctuation on his face, seemingly completely unconcerned with the mockery of the crowd, as if they were not talking about themselves at all.
“You ……”
Cai Peng’s old face became even redder, the more Lin Ran was like this, the stronger the guilt he felt in his heart, but at the same time, the more he admired Lin Ran, he could not even change his face in this situation, at least this was something he, Cai Peng, could not do.
While Lin Ran and his wife were talking, Dai Yin seemed to have more than enough to say, smiling as he came over to the two of them, looking at the torn cotton jacket Lin Ran was wearing and laughing.
“Ranzi, no matter how you say it, you’re also my Dai Yin’s cla*smate, and this is a five-star hotel, you’re really not giving me Dai Yin face by dressing like this!”
“Hey hey, you can’t say that, Mr. Dai’s family is rich, but you also have to consider the situation of our Lin’s cla*smate’s family!”
Li Qiu smiled as he walked up, and then said.
“I saw Lin Ran at the mall just now, I’m the one who didn’t let him buy it, after all, they’re all so poor, can they still spend years of savings just because they came to a reunion?”
“You’re right, if that happened, we’d be sinners!”
“Haha!”
Dai Yin said, and Shui did the same, as for the others, they were also laughing, but they were obviously much more restrained, they had been mocking Lin Ran so much, which made them feel a bit bad, we were all cla*smates, so it was really a bit hurtful to do so.
“Hey, if Meng Meng comes and sees you like this later, I really don’t know if she will …..”
Dai Yin laughed, but before he could finish his words, a clear, crisp voice like a lark came from the side, directly interrupting his words.
“Will it how? Dai Yin, what are you talking about?”
The crowd smiled and looked, they could not help but be stunned, only to see a pretty figure standing not far away from the side, she was wearing a white dress, her hair black and slender spilling over her shoulders, a pair of black eyes revealed all the temperament of this person, if one word was used to describe it, it was definitely a literary beauty.
“Dream …. Meng Meng!”
Dai Yin stammered, drool running down the corners of his mouth, hastily body hands to wipe it away.
“Meng Meng you are so beautiful!”
Seeing Wu Mengmeng, some students immediately ran over.
“No wonder she’s the school flower, she was that pretty in high school, and now she’s even more breathtakingly beautiful!”
“It’s all female, how can we live!”
The crowd of students were envious and jealous, with different moods.
“Meng Meng, look at who this is! I guarantee you won’t recognise him!”
Li Qiu laughed and pulled Lin Ran over.
Wu Mengmeng took a look at Lin Ran and followed, then froze, and after a moment opened her mouth to ask.
“Are you …… Lin Ran?”
“That’s right, it’s me!”
Lin Ran laughed, so many people didn’t recognise himself apart from Cai Peng, and now there was one more Wu Mengmeng too.
“Why did you come dressed like this?”
Wu Meng Meng asked with a frown, but the frown was one of doubt, without the slightest hint of contempt or disdain, an attitude that made Lin Ran uncomfortable.
“It’s a long story, I ……”
Lin Ran just want to explain, who knows Wu Mengmeng is a wave of the hand, directly spoke.
“No need to explain, I’m not interested, I thought your conditions would not be yourself will be angry, but I did not expect that now actually mixed like this, really let me down!”
With that, Wu Meng Meng turned around and chatted with the other students, no longer paying him any attention.
Lin Ran felt a chill in his heart, and at the same time, he also wondered why Wu Mengmeng’s eyes were clearly not contemptuous just now, but now …..
Soon he knew the answer, only to hear the cla*smate chatting with Wu Mengmeng from afar say.
“Mengmeng, I heard that you are already a teacher, that’s awesome!”
“Yes, every day is very tired, awesome is really not!”
Wu Mengmeng laughed.
“A teacher? No wonder, you don’t even show your joy or anger!”
Lin Ran laughed at himself, thanks to the fact that he thought he was proficient in Feng Shui, he didn’t even think that people didn’t see it because of their profession.
“Alright, let’s go in first, I’ve already booked the room!”
Dai Yin smiled as he looked at the crowd and greeted them, then turned his head to look at Lin Ran.
“Ranzi, you follow me, otherwise I’m afraid the others won’t let you in later, haha!”
“Haha!”
Ah Shui Li Qiu also couldn’t help but laugh out loud, and even Lin Ran saw that Wu Meng Meng, who was at the side, was actually covering her mouth and laughing too.
And it was this laugh that made Lin Ran feel like something had broken in his heart.
“Is this society this is reality? It really stings!”
Lin Ran shook his head with a bitter smile, still at the end of the crowd, and followed.
