Chapter 220 The High School Gathering Starts
The phone call was from Li Mingxue.
The phone call was to inform Chen Hao about their high school gathering at noon.
She reminded him about the occasion and informed Chen Hao to head over earlier.
Three days had passed since the meal at Midu Restaurant.
Qin Ya had left for three days already.
Li Mingxue informed him about the gathering yesterday. She said that after today, everyone would be
heading toward their internships and jobs.
As such, a gathering should be held when many of their classmates were still available to meet up.
At first, Chen Hao had no intentions of going. However, he did not expect to bump into Li Mengxue and
the rest. Yesterday, Chen Hao went to the opening ceremony of the investment firm he founded. Just
as he was about to leave after cutting the ribbon, he bumped into them who had come to join in the
celebration.
Other than that, there was another high school classmate present. She was Jiang Xueqing.
Jiang Xueqing was their class deputy monitor and was definitely one of the prettiest girls in class. She
had excellent academic results and like Li Shihan, she had always been rather close with Chen Hao
who had stellar academic results as well.
Chen Hao heard that Jiang Xueqing had returned to Ping An County to further advance her career and
she had managed to land a job with decent benefits.
She saw Chen Hao and felt rather homely to see someone familiar thus she sincerely invited Chen Hao
over.
Chen Hao could not turn her down therefore he agreed to attend the gathering.
Right after he hung up, Chen Hao saw a notification from his QQ. The message was sent by Jiang
Xueqing.
“Hehe, Chen Hao, when are you planning to go?”
Chen Hao knew that Jiang Xueqing’s home was in Ping An County and was not far from the hotel that
Chen Hao stayed in.
Yesterday when they bumped into each other, Chen Hao had jokingly said that they should head over
to the gathering together on the following day.
Jiang Xueqing actually smiled and agreed.
“Give me a minute!” Chen Hao replied.
“Alright, take your time. I still have to spend about forty minutes washing my hair. See you later at the
bus stop on Xiao Ping Street!”
“No problem!”
In the past when Jiang Xueqing was the deputy monitor, she was the type of girl that was polite and
quiet. She rarely spoke in class.
She was merely enthusiastic about learning and only enjoyed hanging out with classmates who loved
studying as well.
As such, Jiang Xueqing disliked speaking to classmates that were naughty and disobedient such as Li
Chao who came from a powerful family background as well as Li Wenyang who was the wealthiest in
class.
However, when Chen Hao bumped into her yesterday, he felt that she had undergone a huge change
in her personality.
She had become a lot more cheerful and mature. She was also very good at cracking jokes with
others.
Sigh! Maybe girls that went through the harshness of society would always undergo some changes.
On a side note, it was important to know there was a period of time during the start of sophomore year
when he was rather intimate with Jiang Xueqing.
It was not that Chen Hao was exceptionally attractive!
Rather, Chen Hao looked rather delicate and elegant back then. It was also mainly due to the fact that
he was honest and had stellar results. Coupled with the fact that he was a good listener to the girls,
eventually some intimacy formed between them.
However this intimacy with Jiang Xueqiang only lasted for a while and it disappeared not long after.
By then, Chen Hao was done getting ready.
Thus, he picked up his car keys and drove his G Wagon over to the bus stop on Xiao Ping Street.
He drove that car because there was no longer any need for him to be low profile as he was no longer
in college.
Furthermore, Chen Hao did not drive such a luxurious car over to show off but instead he merely
needed a vehicle.
After all, Li Sihan and Chen Lin might also attend the gathering. Even though they had no idea about
his actual identity, they had always thought that he was rich. So Chen Hao did not think too much about
it.
When he arrived, it was still half an hour earlier than the stipulated meeting time.
Thus, Chen Hao drove over and parked his car in a nearby parking lot.
He went to a bubble tea shop and bought two cups of bubble tea. Then, he headed over to the bus
stop and waited for Jiang Xueqing’s arrival.
“Chen Hao?
Just then, a girl standing next to the bus stop called out Chen Hao’s name.
Chen Hao turned his head around.
He saw a girl intimately holding onto a guy’s arm. Both of them were wearing sunglasses and had
rather fashionable outfits on.
The girl looked beautiful as she had exquisite facial features and a nice figure. However, the guy on the
other hand was a little short and plump. He also had a face filled with pimples.
Yet, they looked rather affectionate towards each other.
“Chen Hao, it has only been a few years and you already don't recognize me?”
The girl removed her sunglasses and said.
“Oh! You are Wang Rui!” Chen Hao managed to recognize her at first glance.
At the same time, Chen Hao recognized her boyfriend as well once he took off his sunglasses.
He was Xin Heng, nicknamed Tycoon. He looked like a wealthy and rich tycoon and in fact he was
rather rich in high school. However, truth be told that out of ten girls he courted in college, fifteen of
them would reject him.
Why was that so? Because half of the girls had to reject him twice!
That was because he had too many scars on his face.
Not only that, he had a rather serious fever when he was young which damaged his nerves. As such,
he had a slower reaction compared to others.
Anyway, back then their classmates either bullied Chen Hao or bullied him. The both of them could be
considered as brothers in hardship.
Wang Rui on the other hand looked naturally beautiful.
She was from the performing arts team and similar to Chen Lin, she was also a latin dancer.
In fact Wang Rui was even more charming than Chen Lin.
Chen Hao vividly remembered that Wang Rui was a rather open minded person. There were many Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
guys courting her and she had been in numerous relationships as well.
She either dated guys who were rich and popular in school or guys who were from the sports team that
had an air akin to that of a celebrity.
The rest of the guys she dated were gangsters and thugs that looked handsome with a bad boy look.
On the weekends, there would be a few RSZ motorcycles that would block off the entrance of the
school while waiting for her.
All in all, it was very cool!
Chen Hao had not expected that upon graduation from high school, she actually ended up being in a
relationship with Tycoon!
Chen Hao’s eyes popped out.
“What are you looking at? I did not expect you to turn up to this high school gathering! Come to think of
it, we have not seen each other for a couple of years!”
Wang Rui rolled her eyes at Chen Hao with her arms crossed.
Chen Hao smiled and said, “Yes, we have not seen each other for a couple of years. The both of you
got together?”
Wang Rui snorted and said, “So what if the both of us are together? You have no idea how much
Tycoon loves me. Furthermore, he already owns a few stores in the county!”
Wang Rui talked a lot, and he was unsure if she was bragging about it.
Wang Rui crossed her arms and was even more elated when she saw that Chen Hao stayed silent
without a word.
She could tell that Chen Hao was a little shocked that she got together with Tycoon.
Chen Hao was also a little jealous.
It was not a matter of whether Chen Hao liked Wang Rui but rather how different their lives have turned
out to be. Both Chen Hao and Tycoon were losers and yet Tycoon had such a beautiful girlfriend
whereas Chen Hao remained a loser.
Anyone would feel uncomfortable about the situation as well!
Wang Rui enjoyed seeing Chen Hao’s discomfort.
Chen Hao gave a bitter smile and shook his head. He said, “Let's head over together when Jiang
Xueqing gets here!”
Wang Rui snorted and said, “There is no way we are going to take the bus. We are waiting here for
someone else. Yang Jian and the rest will come by and pick us up! Tycoon’s hasn’t gotten his license
yet, or we’d have bought a car long ago.”
“Alright then!”
Chen Hao had no idea how else to reply to her. Thus, he ended up exchanging small talk with Tycoon
and Wang Rui.
As time went by, Chen Hao eventually heard a girl calling out his name.
Chen Hao lifted his head and saw a girl by the roadside. A tall and slender girl with long curly red hair
that draped over her shoulders. She was also holding up a small umbrella.
With her arrival, many other guys who were waiting for the bus at the bus stop shifted their gaze
towards her.
With her looks, figure and temperament, it was more than enough to capture the attention of all the
guys in the vicinity.
Many guys had their eyes glued to her and were checking her out.
That girl was none other than Jiang Xueqing.
