Chapter Seventy-Seven: Old Classmates
After the Spring Festival, Li Ming also went to visit relatives with his parents.
This year, some relatives and friends who were close also came to Li Ming's house.
On the day of the second year of junior high school, Li Ming received a call from Li Mei, saying that she was responsible for informing Li Ming of the class reunion on the third day of junior high school.
Li Ming nodded and promised that he would definitely arrive.
In the third year of junior high school, before noon, Li Mei's call came.
Li Ming didn't stay at home for lunch, so he went out.
When he arrived in the city, Li Ming and Li Mei made peace not long after, and there was a classmate with Li Mei.
Li Ming looked at it and asked, "What about the others?"
Li Mei stroked her hair and said softly: "Just me and Wang Shan, the others haven't arrived yet!"
Li Ming nodded, and didn't say much.
He and Wang Shan are not familiar with each other, and he also thinks that he is not a good man to intervene in the topic between the two women.
The main thing is that during these few days, he and his parents went to visit relatives more than he usually said in weeks.
These relatives and friends don't know what's wrong, one by one they are all very enthusiastic, in addition to chatting with Li's father and Li's mother, they also talk to Li Ming from time to time.
It really made Li Ming a little overwhelmed.
Especially some people who still wanted to introduce Li Ming to the object, which made Li Ming almost run away on the spot.
Fortunately, now he has a girlfriend in name, which can be used to block arrows.
After a while, another classmate came, a woman.
Li Ming and them just said hello and said a few words, perhaps sensing Li Ming's boredom, they quickly reduced their conversation with Li Ming.
Seeing that it was approaching noon, Li Ming took the initiative to speak for the first time, proposing to find a place to sit and wait for others.
Li Mei was the first to agree with Li Ming's proposal, and the other two girls thought that they had been shopping for a while. Maybe I was a little tired, but I didn't object, and I agreed.
Because they were just waiting for someone, although a few people didn't look for a place to rest, they just found a booth in a music bar nearby.
Li Ming and the others didn't order any drinks, but each of them ordered a cup of milk tea, as well as some melon seeds and a few plates of snacks.
Li Ming, however, did not order milk tea, but ordered a cup of tea, but waited for the waiter to bring the brewed tea. Li Ming didn't move after tasting it.
Li Ming is still so quiet, where he sits and doesn't take the initiative to speak, it doesn't seem to be in harmony with everything around him, but it seems to be integrated, making people ignore it unconsciously.
Only Li Mei said a few words to Li Ming from time to time, and the other two almost forgot about Li Ming except for the beginning.
Li Ming was rarely quiet, and he was very happy that the two of them seemed to forget their actions.
Just when Li Ming was a little drowsy. Li Mei whispered to him that most of the people had arrived, and told everyone to gather at the park.
Li Ming yawned and stood up. said: "Then let's go!"
When leaving, Li Ming settled the account by the way.
Everything that followed was simple and boring, and they got to the park. The reunion with the other classmates who arrived may be because everyone is a junior high school classmate, and almost all of them are locals. In addition, it is the reason that it has just been the Chinese New Year! There are quite a lot of classmates at this party, adding up to more than 20 or nearly 30.
It can be said that except for a dozen or so students who really can't come or can't be contacted, almost all the students in the previous class have arrived.
When I saw Li Ming, some of the male classmates in the class took the initiative to come over and chat with Li Ming.
In addition to the ones who were more familiar with them before, there were a few who came up specifically to ask Li Ming about Li Mengying's situation.
Everyone knows that Li Ming, who used to be at the same table with Li Mengying in the class, and this school girl who is recognized by everyone are the closest, and the relationship is also the best, but now they have not contacted Li Mengying, and when they saw Li Ming, of course they had to ask.
In this regard, Li Ming could only tell the truth that Li Mengying was working in South Korea and could not come.
Yes, these boys are a little sorry.
At least half of the boys in the class back then liked Li Mengying, but Li Ming was not the only one.
However, most of them were not spoken.
Even Li Ming has been hiding it for so many years, and even Li Mengying herself didn't feel it.
At noon, most of the people had already eaten before they came, so they proposed to find a place to play first, but Li Ming and the few of them hadn't eaten yet.
Li Ming didn't care what others were doing, but he was hungry, and he also knew that Li Mei hadn't eaten either, so he must be hungry at this time!
Li Ming didn't have any scruples, and said directly: "It's okay if you want to play mahjong or drink, but I was called early in the morning, and I haven't eaten yet, so let's go eat something first and then come to play with you!"
As he spoke, Li Ming also amplified his voice and said to everyone: "Who hasn't had lunch yet, let's go eat something with me first!
Yang Tao, who was close to Li Ming, was the first to say: "I haven't eaten yet!" I came from home, I sat in the car for an hour, and I haven't touched the rice, it's not good to drink on an empty stomach, Mingzi, I'll go to dinner with you!"
Yang Tao was the first to agree, and the rest of the students had not eaten yet, and some hungry classmates also spoke one after another.
In this way, Li Ming, Yang Tao, Li Mei, Wang Shan, and other seven people who had not yet eaten lunch went to find a place to eat first.
The other students went to find a place to play first.
In the end, they still didn't play mahjong, for no other reason, there were too many people, unless they went to the mahjong hall, or there were so many mahjong tables for them to use.
So when Li Ming went to eat, the rest of the people went to the music bar under the leadership of Wang Bo.
By the time Li Ming and the others went to the bar to find them, Wang Bo and the others had already drunk them.
Seeing Li Ming and them coming, he immediately beckoned them to sit down, and several of them picked up wine glasses before Li Ming could sit down, and wanted to drink with Li Ming.
Although Li Ming's proposal just now was reasonable, it also made some people feel a little unhappy.
At this time, when he saw Li Ming and them returning, he immediately stepped forward to drink with Li Ming.
Although there are also people in the class who have a good relationship with Li Ming, it is not too much to see Wang Bo and others, just drinking a glass of beer with Li Ming alone, plus Wang Bo, their reasons for drinking are also sufficient, 'Old classmates haven't seen each other for many years, have a drink!'.
They didn't take the initiative to block the wine on the spot.
Of course, after Wang Bo and others drank with Li Ming, they would also take the initiative to have a drink with Wang Bo and others for the same reason, "Old classmates haven't seen you for a long time", and salute the wine back.
It can be regarded as an indirect revenge for Li Ming!
In addition to Yang Tao, there is also Liu Bin, who has a good relationship with Li Ming in junior high school.
As soon as he came, he was taken care of, and after drinking a glass of beer with the same person, after more than a dozen glasses, Li Ming still felt that his stomach was slightly swollen after lunch. (To be continued......)
