Chapter 3: Past and Present

Although Ye Fan can't talk about the so-called successful career, because of some reasons and experiences, he now has some capital in his hands, and he happened to buy a Mercedes-Benz not long ago, which is higher than Liu Yunzhi's Toyota car in terms of price, but if he judges his status by this, he feels quite vulgar.

Ten minutes later, Ye Fan drove to the meeting place, Bright Moon City on the Sea.

This is a super entertainment city integrating catering and leisure, located in a prime location, surrounded by very prosperous, from its parking lot of various high-end cars can be seen the main body of consumption.

Just graduated from college for three years, and most of the classmates are still not successful in their careers, Ye Fan feels that choosing such a meeting place is somewhat extravagant.

When he walked out of the parking lot and came to the front of Bright Moon City on the sea, he soon saw several familiar figures, all of whom were classmates who had come to the party, some of whom had not seen him for three years.

"Ye Fan!" At this time, a handsome young man found him, greeted him with a smile on his face, and said: "This is your fault, as the landlord of this city, he has not shown up for a long time, it should be you who initiated and organized this party." ”

This young man with a venous face named Wang Ziwen is one of the organizers and initiators of this party, and he was a very active figure in college, and it is said that he has developed very well in another city in the past three years, and his assets have been quite expensive.

Several other people also came to greet them, and although they hadn't seen each other for a long time, they were very enthusiastic.

Obviously, Wang Ziwen is waiting for someone here, and there are only two or three people who can let him stand in front of Bright Moon City on the sea to greet him, so it is easy to guess.

Wang Ziwen is a smart person, and he didn't continue to stay here and wait alone, but led the way in front while talking and laughing, and accompanied everyone into Bright Moon City on the sea. On the fifth floor, there is a discreet business center for meetings of thirty to fifty people, which has been chartered.

At this moment, it was already dark outside, and the students who had come to the party were almost there.

The arrival of several people immediately made the atmosphere of the scene lively, and many people greeted them, and they were able to get together again with a feeling of time passing and space dislocation, which coincided with some scenes in college in a trance.

It's been three years since graduation, and everyone is already twenty-five or sixteen years old, several of them are married, and two of them have become little mothers.

Everyone has their own different life trajectory, but in general, most of the students are ordinary people, and the ideals and ambitions of the past have been polished by time and are about to disappear completely, and they will return to the ordinary in the ordinary life.

The dream is gone, and most people are soberly aware that they are just an ordinary person.

Ye Fan was taken to the other side by Wang Ziwen, and carefully observed and found that the classmates here were either the kind of people who had successful careers or some backgrounds in their families.

"Ye Fan, you came so late, I must punish you with three glasses. ”

"Three glasses is too little, and you guys are underestimating Ye Fan's amount of wine. Lin Jia also sat here, Danfeng's eyes were slanted, her figure was slender, her curves were graceful, and she was sexy.

"Which beautiful woman wants to punish me?" Ye Fan also classified several male classmates as beauties.

"Just take advantage of us, punishment, we must punish you!" A man and a woman unanimously began to "sharpen their knives".

Liu Yunzhi has a certain background in the city, so he is naturally in this small group, and he said very casually: "I thought you would be delayed for a while waiting for a taxi." ”

As soon as these words came out, they were a little cold. Everyone present knew Liu Yunzhi's grievances with Ye Fan when he was in college, and now he is developing very smoothly in this city, and at this moment, he inadvertently pointed out that Ye Fan came by taxi, and his attitude was really obvious.

The other students also noticed the situation here and looked over here, but Ye Fan just smiled indifferently and didn't say anything.

"I'll go outside to pick up Zhou Yi. Wang Ziwen diverted the topic, then turned to leave.

Lin Jia talked about cosmetics with two female classmates, and talked about a few brand-name clothes, and others also told some interesting stories about the past.

However, after what happened just now, the atmosphere was somewhat delicate, and no one mentioned punishing Ye Fan anymore, but there were more words around Liu Yunzhi.

Although Ye Fan was a man of the year in college, everything didn't matter after he walked out of the campus, and now whether he has a successful career is the most important.

There are eyes around from time to time, this side seems to be a special small circle, all of them are currently developing well, but at this moment, Ye Fan has a tendency to be marginalized.

Ye Fan has always been very calm about this, but in the end he still stood up and left here, and sat down with some other classmates, he didn't want to be marked by other classmates as a special group.

Cosmetics and designer clothing are always the favorite topics of female students, while male students talk about a wide range of topics, from football to news and current affairs.

Half an hour later, twenty-five people had arrived. There were 33 students in the class, three of whom were studying abroad, while the other five were unable to arrive due to some special reasons.

Several initiators and organizers of this gathering gave speeches one after another, and the atmosphere was very warm, and then everyone was divided into several small circles and chatted freely.

It was a long time before everyone left the small business center to raise a glass to the reunion. There was no deliberate arrangement, and the dignity and intimacy of each table were revealed.

Ye Fan did not sit with the small group of Lin Jia, Liu Yunzhi and others, but naturally sat at another table.

After another speech, the rest was very casual, some people toasted between the various wine tables, and some people were surrounded by wine tables, unable to move a step, and were toasted again and again.

A lot has happened in three years, and everyone has changed a lot. Perhaps because of the stimulation of alcohol, many students talked about their lives, some were proud and some were frustrated.

Some people hate their bosses for being extremely harsh and always asking for overtime, while the pay is pitiful.

One female classmate said that her boyfriend was a department manager of a well-known company, another classmate said that her husband had been promoted to vice president of the company, and some said that her fiancée was the niece of a bank executive.

And more people are silent after hearing this, and many people's lives are not very satisfactory.

One of the female classmates looked particularly haggard, some people said that she married a person she didn't like, and she was not happy after marriage, her husband drank heavily all day, and when a classmate passed by her city to visit her, he saw bruises and scars on her body.

"If you need any help, you can come to me......" For this very haggard female classmate, Ye Fan has compassion, and still remembers her shy and simple appearance in college, standing outside the football field and waving vigorously to cheer for him.

Seeing that her life was really unsatisfactory, she nodded gloomily but gratefully, and whispered thank you.

"Ye Fan, you better change yourself first......" The female classmate who said that her husband had been promoted to vice president of the company said a little unceremoniously through the effect of alcohol: "You see how smoothly Liu Yunzhi is developing now." ”

The students at this table all looked at Ye Fan at the same time, and then looked at the table where Liu Yunzhi was not far away, where they were all students who were developing very well.

"Ye Fan didn't say you, you were indeed a character in college, but everything will change after you walk out of campus, and you can't do it if you don't work hard. At this table, the male classmate who said that his fiancée was the niece of a bank executive also looked preachy.

When it comes to the people at Liu Yunzhi's table, some of the classmates here sighed, saying that some people were far inferior to themselves when they went to school, but now they can't be compared.

There are also people who are cynical, very extreme, drunk and drunk, saying that those people return to their hometowns in fine clothes and show off their wealth.

Some female classmates joked about Ye Fan, saying that they were fortunate that they only secretly liked him when they were in school, but now they regret that they rejected Liu Yunzhi's pursuit back then.

It's still the same city, it's still the same people, but everyone's mood is very different after they get together again.
