Chapter 51: Alumni Association (Part II)
This small group is obviously headed by Yang Ke, Yang Ke was a man of the year when he was in school, young and golden, handsome, typical rich and handsome, however, seeing that Zhou Zhiqing was also in this small group, Yang Chen couldn't help but wonder.
Zhou Zhiqing will also be a popular figure when he is in school, but unlike Yang Ke, he is a grassroots student bully, as a representative of grassroots scholars, perhaps it is a natural class antagonism, Zhou Zhiqing has always been at odds with Yang Ke, one of these two is the class secretary, the other is the class leader, and they often work against each other.
But at this time, the two sat together, talking and laughing, and everyone obviously felt that Zhou Zhiqing was looking at Yang Ke's eyes between his words and demeanors, and it felt like he was carefully serving the leader.
"Our class secretary has also fallen, the reality of this knife sharpener is too powerful, no matter how sharp you are, no matter how strong the knife is, in front of it, it will be polished extremely smooth. I think what an arrogant person our class secretary was at the beginning, and now he will actually whisper to his former opponent like this. Someone couldn't help but whisper.
But it's not to blame Zhou Zhiqing, I heard that when he graduated, he found several jobs and was ruined by Yang Ke, and he didn't want to go to other places, so he could only compromise in the end. "Another humane who knows the secrets.
However, things are obviously not so simple, and everyone secretly speculates that there must be many hidden secrets that are not well known, otherwise how could Zhou Zhiqing have changed so much in just two years.
"I've heard about it, and I thought it was just a rumor, but now it seems that the rumor is not necessarily false. Even Guo Shuai shook his head.
Yang Chen was stunned, he didn't expect that there would be such a twist and turn in it.
When he was about to graduate, he hurriedly returned to Luonan Zhongzhou to participate in the internship after his graduation defense, and even the graduation certificate and degree certificate were sent by Guo Shuai, so he didn't know anything about it.
After another half an hour, all the 25 students who came to the party this time arrived, a total of 33 students in the class, four went abroad, and the other four could not come to the class reunion for various reasons.
At this time, as the general initiator and organizer of the party, Yang Ke took the stage to deliver a speech, and the atmosphere was warm for a while. But in the process of Yang Ke's speech, Zhou Zhiqing ran up and down like a dog's legs, which made the faces of many students change.
Of course, this is just a momentary emotion, it will soon pass, everyone is no longer a stunned young man who just graduated, they all understand the difficulty of life, they have all bowed their heads in front of life, and naturally most of them can understand Zhou Zhiqing's approach.
Next came the banquet, and everyone left the conference room and came to the banquet hall, which was also chartered.
This made Yang Chen can't help but sigh that Yang Ke is really rich, after this party, in such a high-end place, it is estimated that Xiao 100,000 will not be able to stop. Originally, the cost of class reunions was generally shared equally by everyone, but Yang Ke insisted on paying for it himself.
Of course, for the current Yang Chen, this is just a small amount of money, but he is not used to spending money like this, and it is this kind of flowering with a conspicuous nature.
However, everyone has their own attitude towards life, and Yang Chen can only accept his own principles and cannot criticize others.
In the banquet hall, although there is no deliberate arrangement of seats, the intimacy and humility of each table are naturally revealed.
After everyone toasted together, it was very casual, and the students began to toast each other, some wandering between the tables, and some people were surrounded in front of the wine table, unable to move an inch.
Two years is neither a long time nor a short time, and a lot of things have happened to everyone, and the changes are not small.
Under the stimulation of alcohol, many classmates who were still silent about their lives just now began to talk eloquently, a few happy and a few sad, the proud ones were full of energy, and the frustrated ones were sad.
A classmate who was very withdrawn when he was in school was loudly complaining about his boss's harshness, constantly asking for overtime, but the salary was pitiful, and his life was not easy, let alone saving for a down payment and buying a car.
There are also female classmates who boast that their boyfriend is the department manager of a well-known company and is about to be promoted to deputy director of the department, while another male classmate said that his girlfriend is the daughter of a senior official of a state-owned enterprise.
Of course, they don't mention their boyfriend's age, nor do they say what their girlfriend looks like.
No one will reveal their scars, and those in the know will murmur at most, while most people are silent after hearing this, and many people are not happy with their lives.
It's still the same city, it's still the same people, but after getting together again, everyone's mood is very different.
The initial cordiality is just a reminiscence of the past, and now after drinking a little drunk, everyone seems to be back to their true selves. Only then did I realize that everyone had become different.
Yang Chen was a marginal person in the class when he was in school, except for a few friends such as Guo Shuai, he was only a nodding friend with everyone else, so he was the most idle in this party.
He didn't want to go to drink with anyone, and no one else came to him for a toast.
Guo Shuai challenged Yang Chen again, and even called a helper, but these people were so frightened that they even admired after seeing Yang Chen's face change color and drinking their toast one by one, and then slipped away to drink with the others.
"Hey, these guys are so unrighteous, they just ran away!" After a few people left, Guo Shuai was still angry.
"It's no good to drink with me, so why should people waste time here. Yang Chen watched the fire and saw the reason clearly.
Guo Shuai was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but be stunned, sighed and said: "Yes, time can change everything, and everyone will become very realistic for the sake of life." Come, since there is no one to accompany us, let's drink with our brothers. ”
"Aren't you going to go around?" Yang Chen asked with a smile.
"What to turn, how not to turn, what can you do if you turn?" Guo Shuai shook his head.
......
The classmates were full of food and drink, and they were going to K song again, according to Yang Chen's meaning, they didn't want to go, but it was not good to sweep everyone's interest, so they had to follow.
The place of K song was nearby, and the group left the banquet hall staggeringly, Yang Chen and Guo Shuai walked out of the hotel gate behind the large army and walked towards KTV.
And not long after the two of them left the hotel gate, somehow, there was a commotion in front of them.
The two stepped forward quickly, but it was one of their male classmates who had friction with each other, and the other party accidentally stepped on this male classmate, this male classmate's name is Zhang Lin, who usually owes a little mouth, and at this time he drank too much and didn't pay attention, so he yelled at the other party, "You don't have long eyes!"
The other party also drank some wine, so he naturally refused to let it, so the two fell into it.
When Yang Chen and Guo Shuai rushed over, the two were still there, talking to each other sentence by sentence, but it was only a verbal conflict, and it did not escalate.
However, at this moment, a female classmate stepped forward and said, "Why are you like this, don't you just apologize if you step on someone?"
This female classmate originally wanted to calm things down, thinking that since the other party was wrong, then it was also appropriate to apologize, and everyone had nothing to do with each other after apologizing.
It's just that she forgot that the other party was drinking, and as soon as she saw her get involved, the man immediately scolded and said, "You little, it's your,!"
Suddenly, the male classmates who were just persuading or watching coldly around stopped doing it, and surrounded them one by one.
"What's the matter with you, how do you speak?"
"I'm rubbing, why do you dare to scold?"
"Looking for a draw, aren't you?"
