Chapter 69: The Gathering (Part II)
The classmates in the hall were surprised when they saw Ruan Ping introducing Ouyang Shuo into the hall so enthusiastically. You must know that in addition to Ouyang Shuo, only Banhua Song Jia got this treatment.
There were a total of four tables in the hall, Ruan Ping led Ouyang Shuo to the first table, and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, our handsome guy Ouyang Shuo, everyone still knows each other, right?" ”
Sitting at the first table, in addition to the class flower Song Jia, there were also Tan Xiaoli and Meng Feifei, the two daughters that Ouyang Shuo met when he was shopping for New Year's goods before, and they all greeted Ouyang Shuo with a smile.
After Ruan Ping left, Ouyang Shuo was not restrained, smiling and chatting with a few old classmates.
In this world, there will never be a shortage of people who suffer from pink eye, and Zhao Qinglin, who is also sitting at the first table, is one of them. After graduation, with the help of his parents, he worked as an assistant manager of Bingfeng Group, the most famous real estate company in Jiaozhou. Among the junior high school students, they are considered successful people.
Regarding Ruan Ping's family background, Zhao Qinglin is undoubtedly envious. This time, I came to the class reunion on purpose, and I didn't mean to make friends on purpose. Unexpectedly, Ruan Ping just politely arranged him to the first table and didn't pay attention to him. On the contrary, he is enthusiastic about Ouyang Shuo, a stinky boy, and he is naturally jealous.
I saw him say to Ouyang Shuo in a weird manner: "Yo, old classmate, you're very anxious, you brought the watch that Ruan Shao gave you so quickly, and you are usually reluctant to buy such luxurious electronic products, right?" ”
As soon as Zhao Qinglin said this, the whole table was silent. There are two former top students, but now they are very ordinary classmates, and they automatically sit in the right seats, and they are ashamed, and they can't wait to bury the watch in their pockets in the ground.
Ouyang Shuo laughed playfully, he really came up and slapped his face so uninterestingly, he was not a good gentleman in junior high school, and he could stand such a provocation. "I really can't bear it. I heard that Zhao Qinglin's classmates are well-off, why not take this opportunity to follow Ruan Ping's example and give each student a smartphone. ”
The classmates at the table immediately burst into laughter, and there was no longer any embarrassment before, and they all looked at Zhao Qinglin playfully, wanting to see how he answered.
"You!" Zhao Qinglin didn't expect Ouyang Shuo to be so shameless, not only exposing his shortcomings, but also countering him. He has a solid family, but that is also relative to these classmates, otherwise he would not have to rush to Ruan Ping. It was impossible for him to come up with more than 200,000 credits to prepare gifts.
Ouyang Shuo didn't bother to pay attention to Zhao Qinglin's face, picked up the teacup by himself, and drank the tea leisurely.
Tan Xiaoli, who was sitting on his right hand, leaned over, gave him a thumbs up, and said admiringly: "Amazing! Is this still the same taciturn nerd you used to be? It's really impressive, if it weren't for the fact that my sister already had a boyfriend, she would want to chase you. ”
"Poof!" Ouyang Shuo choked on a sip of tea, are all girls so open now, chatting so unscrupulously, without the reserve of a daughter's family at all.
"What kind of expression do you have, how can you drop, it's hard for my sister to be worthy of you?! Although you are a little handsome, my sister also has to have a figure, and she has to look good! Seeing Ouyang Shuo's expression, Tan Xiaoli said that she was very hurt and said bitterly.
Ouyang Shuo immediately raised his hand in surrender, "Classmate Tan, Tan Da Beauty, I was wrong, really wrong." You can bypass the little brother like this. ”
"Hmph, count you kid acquaintance." Tan Xiaoli rolled her eyes, leaned over to him again, and said shyly: "Hey, you don't have a girlfriend yet, how about I introduce our family Feifei to you." ”
Ouyang Shuo didn't say anything here, Meng Feifei, who was sitting on the side, was no longer obedient, blushing, slapped Tan Xiaoli, and said coquettishly: "Tan Xiaoli, see if I don't tear your mouth." ”
Looking at the two ladies frolicking together, Ouyang Shuo shook his head with a wry smile, his eyes inadvertently swept over Song Jia who was sitting opposite him, he was slightly stunned, and nodded with a smile, which was regarded as a greeting.
Song Jia, like Ruan Ping, is also from a big family, and the Song consortium is also one of the best in Lingnan. In addition, Song Jia herself is extremely beautiful and has an extraordinary temperament, which is difficult to approach. Since junior high school, Nguyen Binh has been pursuing her. It's a pity that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless.
In today's class reunion, contact and affection are secondary, and it is more of a game made by Ruan Ping, a game of launching a love offensive against Song Jia. Ouyang Shuo admired Ruan Ping's toughness a little, and pursued tirelessly for nearly ten years, and he has not given up until now.
Song Jia is wearing a white beaded high-waisted dress today, and she looks more and more goddessy. Seeing Ouyang Shuo say hello, he playfully raised the teacup in his hand. Ouyang Shuo shook his head amusedly, and also raised the teacup in his hand, and made a toast in the air, which seemed to be full of tacit understanding.
This scene was seen by Zhao Qinglin on the side, and he was almost crazy with jealousy, didn't he see that the goddess didn't even look at him? The hatred for Ouyang Shuo became more and more intense.
It didn't take long for all the students to arrive and the party officially began. Ruan Ping returned to the first table and sat in the middle of the top, with Song Jia and Ouyang Shuo sitting on the left and right respectively.
Class reunions are naturally inevitably staggered. Familiar with each other, unfamiliar with each other, can soon drink together. Reminiscing about the youthful time in junior high school together, I really feel like I am reunited with old friends.
Stained with Ruan Ping's light, there are really a lot of people who come to drink with Ouyang Shuo, some of them are sincere, and some are ill-intentioned. Ouyang Shuo is not afraid of all the comers, and when it comes to the amount of alcohol, he really hasn't been afraid of anyone.
Of course, the most beautiful is still Ruan Ping. There is an endless stream of people looking for him to drink, and I don't know which table I am pulling to fight for wine at this time.
"Old classmate, let's have a drink together!" A pleasant female voice came from his ears, and when he turned his head, it turned out to be Song Jia, who was sitting next to him, and raised the red wine glass in his hand to him.
Ouyang Shuo nodded, poured himself red wine, and said with a smile: "Okay, a glass to our goddess." As he spoke, he drank the red wine in his glass.
Unexpectedly, Song Jia also drank it all, and her delicate face instantly turned red.
Ouyang Shuo remembered that when Ruan Ping toasted just now, she only took a small sip symbolically. He couldn't imagine that he could get Song Jia's favor anywhere.
To be honest, when they were in junior high school, the two didn't have much intersection. A man with a rich background and a cold temperament is like an ice lotus on a snow-capped mountain, unattainable. A man with a mediocre background, a heart higher than the sky, and a taciturn man, like an empty valley orchid, lonely and self-appreciative.
I didn't understand, Ouyang Shuo didn't care, and took the opportunity to chat with Song Jia. After experiencing Fan Zhongyan's baptism, Ouyang Shuo's conversation has improved a lot, and the two are talking about speculation.
At this time, Ruan Ping walked back, followed by Zhao Qinglin. Seeing Ouyang Shuo and Song Jia chatting so speculatively, he said with a smile: "When I go, you two are quite speculative." ”
Ouyang Shuo didn't know if Ruan Ping had something to say, and there was no need to figure it out, everything in reality was just a passing moment for him, and he said with a smile: "Big red man, let's sit down and eat some food." ”
Ouyang Shuo wanted to gently uncover it, but some people were not happy. Zhao Qinglin jumped out from behind Ruan Ping like a clown, and said sarcastically: "I see, some people are toads who want to eat swan meat. It seems that he is Ruan Binh's lackey, shouting and cheering for the master.
Ouyang Shuo's face sank, and he was about to teach Zhao Qinglin a lesson and let him know more. never thought that Song Jia was already one step ahead of him, and choked loudly: "Some people are willing to be cheap, I can't control it." Ouyang Shuo is my friend, and whoever dares to be disrespectful to him again, I will never spare him. ”
Being insulted by Song Jia so bluntly, Zhao Qinglin's expression froze, and he walked back to his seat with a face full of shame, completely arrogant. A pair of eyes stared at Ouyang Shuo viciously, eager to skin him and cramp.
Originally, Ruan Ping didn't think much about it, but when he was made of such a fuss, his face was a little cloudy. Fortunately, as the son of a wealthy family, there is still a city government that should be there, and he smiled and rounded the field: "Everyone is a classmate, there is no need to be like this." Come on, let's have a drink together. ”
Ouyang Shuo raised his wine glass with a calm face and drank it all. In the following time, although Ruan Ping tried his best to mediate, the atmosphere was still a little dull and awkward, and a good party became nondescript.
I have to say that Ruan Ping is also a master of strain. took advantage of the situation to end the dinner early and announced loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have booked a luxury private room in the KTV on the third floor of the hotel, let's go sing together." ”
Everyone applauded, and when the wine was hot, it was naturally excellent to be able to roar a few songs in the mountains.
Ouyang Shuo didn't expect such an arrangement, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed. He hadn't forgotten that Baby Bing'er was still waiting for him at home. Anyway, the purpose of this gathering has been achieved, and everything that should be seen and what should not be seen has been seen, and what should be remembered has been remembered. The youth that has passed away is like a spring breeze after all, and it will never return.
"Ruan Ping, I won't go to sing, there are still people waiting at home, you guys have fun." Ouyang Shuo said with a smile to Ruan Ping, the host of the event.
Ruan Ping wished that he would leave early, so that Song Jia would really have any entanglement with him, so he said regretfully: "Hey, I originally wanted to sing a song with you, my family is important, I don't dare to keep you, be careful on the road." ”
Ouyang Shuo nodded lightly, and after saying goodbye to a few familiar classmates, he turned around and walked out of the hall. Regardless of Tan Xiaoli on the side, he said that he was not interesting enough, and he actually left the scene early.
