Zhang Jun swung his sore arm and grinned:” It is tired picking up money. When I am selecting stones today, I almost fainted.”
Lin Xian glanced at him: “It is you who works the hardest among all the people in the world. You’ve made a major contribution to our work.” Then she smiled: “It is getting late today. You will attend the student’s reunion tomorrow. So let us return to the hotel.”
Then they returned to the hotel for a rest.
Zhang Jun was so tired that he needed to relieve the fatigue through the golden light from his left eye. When he aimed the light on his arm, he would feel extremely comfortable as it penetrated through his muscles, bones and nerves.
Bathing in the golden light, he x-rayed the marked changes happening in his arm, thinking of one possibility: “The reason why everyone is enduring the suffering of birth, old age, sickness and death is the failure of organ and system. If my body could bathe in the golden light every day, will I have a robust body immune from illness?
Since he did not completely understand the characteristics of the golden light, he spent half of the night basking in it. He X-rayed his legs and body, especially his private parts in the hope that it would bring surprises to him.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t see his head and neck, thus making it impossible to strengthen those parts.
Although Zhang Jun slept late last night, he did not feel tired at all in the morning of the following day. Instead, he was quite vigorous.
He had breakfast with Lin Xian and they chatted with each other about opening the jewelry shop. It was not until 10:00 that they went to a five-star hotel where the student reunion was held. It was the right time for them to go there since the schedule time for the reunion party was 11:00.
The party was held in a presidential suite on the tenth floor of the hotel. Inside the room sat more than ten young people who all graduated from Dong Hai University and most of them were Zhang Jun’s classmates. They were circling around Chen Fusheng and Ye Qian, flattering them in jealousy.
“Qianqian, Fusheng is the popular one who is tall, rich and handsome in our university. We are really jealous of you.” A plump lady wearing make-up with an ordinary appearance said loudly.
Her vanity being satisfied with others’ compliments, Ye Qian pretended to be calm: “Just so so. Fusheng is engaged in too much social activities that he has little time to spend with me every day.”
“A capable man will surely attend more parties, which also reflects their capabilities.” That girl continued flattering her.
Ye Qian smiled faintly: “Hu Xiaohui, why don’t we talk about you? I hear you are going to marry a Japanese, am I right?
That girl felt encouraged, gloating, she said: “Yes, he is a software engineer from Japan. He is preparing our wedding and we are going to marry next year.”
Beside her was a tall man who looked slow-itted. After hearing what she said, he gave her a despised look and mocked her: “Your boyfriend is just Kamebu Hachirō with bow legs and a height of 1.5 meters. He studies in Tokyo and his parents are all farmers. Are you going to be a farmer too?”
Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Hu Xiaohui was furious with her eyes wide open: “Ma Baorui, you are jealous of him! Even if his parents are Japanese farmers and he is short, he is much better than you poor wretch! I was so blind that I fell in love with you. Pooh!”
Ma Baorui flushed angrily and didn’t utter a word.
Feeling the unusual atmosphere, others were trying to persuade them. They had a romantic relationship when they were college students, but Hu Xiaohui ended up turning back on him and falling in love with an international student named Kamebu Hachirō from Japan.
With that thing rankled in his mind, Ma Baorui regarded it as a burning shame, which led to their confrontation.
Since others couldn’t dissuade Hu Xiaohui, she continued cursing Ma Baorui for a while with malicious remarks. All of a sudden, her eyes roamed around the room and fell upon Liu Ting.
Liu Ting looked elegant and graceful, standing there and listening to others’ conversation. When she found that Hu Xiaohui was looking over here, she had a bad feeling about it.
As expected, Lin Xiaohui shouted: “Ma Baorui, aren’t Liu Ting and Ye Qian living a happy life now? If they married Zhang Jun, the poor second generation, could they have a life as decent as it does now?
Ma Baorui shivered with anger, pointing at Hu Xiaohui: “You…you…” Then he stomped his feet and left away, and others couldn’t stop him.
When Zhang Jun and Lin Xian walked into the suite right at that moment, they ran across Ma Baorui who was surprised when seeing Zhang Jun, So he stopped and said: “Zhang Jun!”
“Ma Baorui! You’ve come so early.” Zhang Jun was also surprised. They used to be roommates who got on well with each other.
But Ma Baorui sighed with his head lowered. He looked pale and said: “Zhang Jun, I do not like this party and I will leave away.”
Zhang Jun took his arm and gave Hu Xiaohui a look before talking to him flatly: “Are you disgusted by that Japanese slave?”
Zhang Jun knew that Hu Xiaohui would marry Kamebu Hachirō. Being humble to her Japanese boyfriend, Hu Xiaohui even gave him an apologetic smile after being slapped by him in the face. Zhang Jun and others were ashamed of her behavior and gave her a nickname of Japanese slave.
Ma Baorui nodded: “Zhang Jun, that bitch also used you as an example, saying that Ye Qian and Liu Ting are wise not to choose you. Fuck that bitch!”
Zhang Jun frowned. This woman was a bitch indeed, pulling others into her argument. He said in a cold voice, “Looks like the Japanese slave is walking all over you. If you leave, isn’t this what she wants? Stay with me and ignore her.”
Ma Baorui thought it was so embarrassing to just leave right away, so he nodded.
While Zhang Jun introduced Lin Xian, Ma Baorui was so surprised that Zhang Jun could pick up such a gorgeous girl.
They exchanged few words before walking towards others. Since most of them were classmates who didn’t see each other for over a year, they knew each other very well and exchanged greetings.
Chen Fusheng was greatly delighted upon seeing Lin Xian, thinking that she might have a thing for him by attending the reunion held by him. So he hurried to welcome her, smiling: “I am deeply honored to have Miss Lin’s presence.”
Seeing such an elegant and graceful pretty, the rest of them reacted in different ways with males widening their eyes while being stunned by her appearance, and females feeling unpleasant. Lin Xian had become the focal point after she appeared, overshadowing all other women. More importantly, her unusual apparel was the perfect complement to her grace and elegance. Around her neck she wore a dazzling diamond necklace, decorated with ten diamonds and at the center of it were an green heart-shaped jade of a thumb’s size.
She also wore an eye-catching dress today with her sexy and well build body set off by the crimson evening gown.
Ye Qian was in the worst mood since she was depressed that Chen Fusheng showed enthusiasm towards Lin Xian. So she couldn’t help but give Lin Xian a black look. Lin Xian nodded and smiled at other people, without even noticing her.
When seeing Zhang Jun at the first sight, Liu Ting lowered her head because she felt guilty towards him. They used to be lovers, so Liu Ting couldn’t forget him once and for all.
Beside her was a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. With a height of 1.7 meters, he wore a blue suite and he looked slender, flatly he said: “Xiao Ting, is he Zhang Jun?”
He guessed the relationship between Zhang Jun and Liu Ting just by observing the change of Liu Ting’s expression. His name was Zhou Hong, who got his Ph.D. in America, and he was also Liu Ting’s boyfriend.
Liu Ting sighed, lowering her head without a word. What had passed had passed, what else could she say?
Observing everyone in the suite, Zhou Hong wore a cold smile after a while, murmuring to her: “Xiaoting, there will be an interesting game. But I need to light a fire.”
Knowing Zhou Hong was a calculating person, she was so surprised that she said: “Hong, why don’t we leave it alone.”
Zhou Hong said: “Chen Fusheng can help me make my way to the government departments. So I need to make a good showing to leave a deep impression on him for further contact.”
Liu Ting sighed without saying anything. He knew that once Zhou Hong had decided to do something, no one could change it.
While others are greeting each other, Zhou Hong turned his eyes to Hu Xiaohui, who was as poisonous as a hedgehog and could hurt others easily.
Zhang Jun saw a stranger coming towards him while he exchanged greetings with his classmates. That person wore a sly smile: “You are Zhang Jun, right? I am Zhou Hong, Liu Ting’s boyfriend.”
Actually, Zhang Jun had already discovered Liu Ting earlier. Due to their awkward relations, he didn’t greet her. But her boyfriend came to talk to him unexpectedly, what on earth did he want to do?
Feeling slightly surprised, Zhang Jun nodded: “Hi, I am Zhang Jun.”
“Hehe”, Zhou Hong smiled while casting a sidelong glance at Hu Xiaohui: “I hear Ms Hu has mentioned that Liu Ting and Ye Qian used to be your girlfriends. That’s really impressive.”
Zhang Jun’s face turned blue since he knew that Zhou Hong apparently wanted to insult him by telling everyone that he is a poor man dumped by two women successively.
With her anger still lingering, Hu Xiaohui started to target Zhang Jun, Mao Baorui’s classmate. Actually, she always looked down upon the poor students like Zhang Jun and Ma Baorui who had good academic performance and felt morally superior to others. Therefore, she wanted to join Zhou Hong in humiliating them. She certainly didn’t think that Lin Xian had anything to do with Zhang Jun. How could he pick up such a gorgeous lady now when he couldn’t even catch up with Ye Qian.
“Yes. At that time a poor guy wanted to shoot for the moon. It is lucky that Qian Qian does not become his girlfriend. Otherwise, she will regret her decision.”
Then Hu Xiaohui pointed at Liu Ting: “Xiao Ting, you had great assets. But over one year of your valuable time is wasted on this poor guy. He did not deserve it.”
After humiliating Zhang Jun, she continued to attack Ma Baorui, wearing a cold smile: “How could you have the impudence to come back? Your courage is boosted because of Zhang Jun?”
Ma Baorui raged at her: “Hu Xiaohui, you are crazy! How can you say that? Does it have anything to do with you?”
Zhang Jun showed an expression of indifference to her.
While Chen Fusheng was glad to see that Zhang Jun was insulted. He looked at Zhou Hong admiringly, thinking he was a nice person with whom he could be friends with.
In fact, he regarded Zhang’s pursuit of Ye Qian as an insult to him, so he deliberately told Ye Qian to invite Liu Ting and Zhou Hong to attend the reunion party in order to embarrass Zhang Jun. How such a powerless poor guy could be qualified to chase the girl he liked?
Cheng Fusheng looked at Zhang Jun with a sly smile. Zhang Jun, instead, was pale in face with his body shaking slightly under the rage.
Just right at the moment, a soft hand reached out to hold his fist slightly, it was Lin Xian.
Lin Xian was clever enough to know at the beginning their motives of trampling his dignity. Bursting with a gust of rage, she had the same feeling as Zhang Jun.
“I am Lin Xian.” Suddenly she said, her eyes sweeping across everyone in the room and then she continued: “Zhang Jun is my boyfriend. Do not you think he is wise enough to give up on those ordinary girls?”
Suddenly the place was thrown into dead silence.
