102: Chapter 102 Xu Wei's Class Reunion

"Alright, you guys go ahead and get busy."

After everything was settled, the time had unknowingly reached 11:30.

Xu Wei casually sent a message to her childhood friend, asking her to arrange a few cleaners to tidy up, before hurriedly telling her man to drive to the Jinjiang Hotel.

"Why hasn't Wei Wei arrived yet? It's almost 11:50. Xiao Nan, did you actually notify her?" The person speaking deliberately showed off the Vacheron Constantin on his wrist to check the time.

"Zhang Cheng, are you annoying or what! How many times have you asked this? I've already made it very clear that I notified Wei Wei a day in advance," Gu Xiaonan said with some impatience.

"Alright, alright, why are you arguing? It's not easy to get the Old Classmates together, so let's say less things that hurt the harmony."

"Exactly, exactly. Maybe Wei Wei was delayed by something. Besides, the dishes haven't even been served yet, right? Let's wait a bit longer."

"Then let's wait until twelve and see. If she still isn't here by then, we'll have Xiao Nan call and ask."

Just then, Li Wenhao asked with a curious look on his face.

"Brother Cheng, what kind of watch are you wearing? It doesn't look cheap at all!"

"This one?"

Zhang Cheng held out his wrist and waved the watch in front of everyone.

"Yes, Brother Cheng, what brand is this watch? I don't think I've ever seen this logo before! It looks like a windmill."

"What a total bumpkin."

Zhang Cheng mocked him on the spot.

"A windmill? That's a Maltese Cross. As for this watch, it's the famous Vacheron Constantin. You don't know jack about it."

Upon hearing this, Li Wenhao wasn't angry at all; instead, he fawned,

"So it's a Vacheron Constantin. Someone like me is ignorant, so don't be angry, Brother Cheng. But this watch really suits you well, Brother Cheng."

"No duh, as if I needed you to tell me. This watch was a birthday gift my mom specifically bought for me in Shanghai. As for the price, it wasn't expensive—just 220,000 huaxia coin."

Although everyone was very annoyed by his arrogant attitude, they couldn't help but be shocked upon hearing the price. After all, 220,000 was enough for a down payment on a house in their county town.

"220,000 for a watch isn't expensive? Brother Cheng, your family really is grand for running a factory," Li Wenhao hurriedly flattered him.

"Calling you a bumpkin is spot on. What's a 200,000-plus watch worth? My family's factory makes enough net profit in a year to buy ten of these," Zhang Cheng said with disdain.

"Right, 200,000 is nothing in front of Brother Cheng. I wonder if your factory is hiring? I don't plan on delivering food anymore; it's too hot."

Zhang Cheng glanced at him contemptuously.

"I don't know if the factory is hiring, but I can help you get in as a security guard at the gate. When the time comes, just go over and tell the guy at the gate."

Li Wenhao was burning with rage after hearing this. His face flushed red, and he didn't say a word, but inside, he cursed his entire family.

Seeing that his expression wasn't right, everyone quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, enough talk. Xiao Nan, send Wei Wei a message and see where she is."

Gu Xiaonan nodded.

At this moment, Ji Ruyue asked curiously.

"Ruoni, is Wei Wei really getting married soon? And does her husband really drive a ferrari?"

Zhang Ruoni was silent for a few seconds after hearing this.

"Probably soon, right? I only know that Wei Wei keeps calling him 'husband'. As for the ferrari, that much is true."

Jiang Min couldn't help but sigh.

"A ferrari... I haven't seen one in real life yet. I've only ever seen them online at most."

Gong Lina couldn't help but tease.

"Minmin, you've always been working here in our county, so of course you wouldn't see such a top-tier luxury car."

"There's no other way. I can't leave my two kids at home to go to a big city. My life is already set like this."

"Minmin, don't say that. A simple, ordinary life like yours is something many people strive for."

"That's true." Thinking of her sensible children, Jiang Min smiled happily.

Zhang Peng, who was sitting opposite, immediately said.

"Xiao Nan, do you know what model Wei Wei's husband's ferrari is?"

Gu Xiaonan rolled her eyes at him after hearing this.

"I don't know anything about cars, so how would I know what model it is? I just happened to scroll past a ferrari on TikTok before. But you've got to admit, seeing one in real life is super cool."

After saying this, she suddenly remembered something and added,

"But I thought that ferrari looked so cool that I secretly took a picture of it. Do you want to see it?"

"A picture? Let me see it." Zhang Peng said hurriedly.

Gu Xiaonan then handed over her phone.

Zhang Peng reached out to take the phone and started looking at it. Even the classmates sitting next to him curiously crowded around.

"Damn, it really is cool. I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to drive one in this lifetime."

Zhang Peng turned his head to look at him and joked with a smile,

"Driving it isn't hard. Look at it while you're working during the day, and look at it when you're sleeping at night. I guarantee you'll be driving it like crazy in your dreams."

"Yeah, that's a good idea from Zhang Peng. I'll give it a try when the time comes, hahahaha."

"Stop laughing. Are you guys done looking? Let us take a look too."

"Wait a second, let me take a photo first, and then I'll look it up on Dongchedi later."

Gu Xiaonan shook her head with a smile upon hearing this.

"I'm telling you, Zhang Peng, so after all that, you didn't know either? I thought you knew so much! And you guys can look, but don't drop my phone on the floor."

Zhang Peng handed the phone back while responding awkwardly,

"I didn't say I recognized it. That's why I took a photo; I'm looking it up now."

"Oh my god, is it that expensive?"

"What's there to be surprised about? It's not like I can't afford a ferrari. If Wei Wei agrees to marry me, and she likes it, I'll buy her one."

Zhang Peng said with a chuckle upon seeing this.

"Young Master Cheng, this model isn't cheap; it costs at least over 5 million."

Before Zhang Cheng could speak, Li Wenhao, who was already furious, hurriedly retorted sarcastically,

"Isn't it just a minimum of 5 million? Young Master Cheng's family factory can just work day and night for two or three years and that'll do it."

"You..."

Even if Zhang Cheng were any dumber, he would still understand the implication of those words.

Gu Xiaonan, having taken back her phone and seeing the reply, immediately said,

"Wei Wei says she's about to enter the hotel." As she said this, she spoke to the Waiter at the door of the private room.

"You can start serving the dishes."

The Waiter nodded with a smile.

"I'll go arrange it right away."

Zhang Cheng, who was just about to retort, finally quieted down.

"Wei Wei, over here!" Gu Xiaonan hurriedly stood up and waved.

Today, Xu Wei was wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt on her upper body, a pair of tight denim hot pants on her lower body, and a pair of off-white NIKE sneakers on her feet. Her pair of slender legs were something Li Luo could never get enough of whenever he carried her.

Once she walked closer, everyone was stunned. She was wearing light makeup, had an oval face, a pair of bright, lively eyes, and very delicate features. Although it had been many years, everyone could still see the shadow of her high school self.
