How could it be simple?
Of course, Xia Ding was joking. With Qin Sheng's current identity, none of these so-called old classmates could be his match. If anyone dared to provoke him, they would be courting death. No matter how good they were, where could they go? No matter if they were in politics, business, or self-made businesses, they were nothing in front of Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng was not so stingy. It had been four or five years since he graduated. What happened in the past was already in the past. Sometimes when he thought about it, he felt that it was quite childish. But everyone was like that when they were young. People always had to experience a lot of things before they could gradually grow up. If every young man was so mature, the world would be too boring.
Maybe it was because they had just entered the lecture hall, some students were not used to the atmosphere here. Everyone seemed to be a little restrained and only talked to their regular or familiar friends. Xia Ding was a social butterfly in the student union. He often met up with his old classmates in Shanghai, so he knew a lot of students. At this moment, he was very busy. He was good at this kind of occasion, so he was like a fish in water.
Qin Sheng sat there alone and chatted with Lao Sun for a while. Lao Sun asked him what he had been doing in the past few years and why there was no news about him at all. Qin Sheng just casually explained it to him. Anyway, these stories were just hearsay to others. How many people could understand the joys and sorrows of life in the story? So it didn't matter if it was true or not.
But after chatting with him, Qin Sheng also knew that Old Sun was doing quite well nowadays. After he graduated, he went to work in the Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League. Under the recommendation of his tutor, he was appreciated by a noble person. Now he was already a small cadre. No wonder he had a lot of prestige in the class reunion and became one of the organizers of this reunion.
As one of the organizers of this class reunion, Old Sun naturally had a lot of things to do. After chatting with Qin Sheng for a while, he left. Qin Sheng sat there alone and looked at the students coming and going. Some of the students who took the initiative to greet him, Qin Sheng would not reject them. He would smile and greet them politely. After all, they had crossed paths in the past. Although five years had passed since graduation, the memories and feelings of the past were still there.
However, Qin Sheng still felt a little emotional. Although the people today had not changed much from what they had been in the past, many things had actually changed. For example, they were no longer arrogant and fearless students in the past. They had become ordinary people who had to lower their heads in the face of reality and life. In the past, they would get close to whoever they liked. Now, they would get close to whoever was doing well. This was the change.
Although he felt emotional and disappointed, Qin Sheng could understand it. There were always a lot of helplessness in life. Who didn't want to live a pure and free life? But how many people could really live like that? In the end, it still became a reality.
Therefore, sitting here at this moment, everything in the lecture hall could be seen clearly. For example, whoever was doing well would naturally have more classmates around him. Whoever was doing well would be the center of the circle. It was similar to the game rules in the outside world. Even if two students were chatting alone, it could be seen who was doing better than the other. There were differences in tone, manner, and so on.
Therefore, Qin Sheng, an old classmate who had disappeared for several years, became invisible. Except for the classmates who were familiar with him or knew him in the past, no one paid attention to him anymore. Even the classmates who were familiar with him instantly lost interest in chatting with him after hearing that he was now unemployed. The reality was so cruel that people felt a little helpless.
Probably no one would have thought that the invisible Qin Sheng was the one who was doing the best here.
Originally, Xia Ding wanted to introduce Qin Sheng to everyone. However, Qin Sheng was not interested and asked him not to care about him. Naturally, Xia Ding would not stand on ceremony with Qin Sheng. Not long after he left Qin Sheng behind, he became acquainted with various people.
Qin Sheng sat for a while and just sent away his former friends who lived in the same dormitory. A beautiful woman who used to be pure and cute but was now full of charm walked over and sat next to Qin Sheng naturally. She opened her mouth and said softly, "Do you still remember me?"
After smelling the faint Chanel perfume, Qin Sheng subconsciously looked to the side. After his eyes stayed for a few seconds, he recognized this beautiful young woman and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect you to come too."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you still remember me. I didn't chase you for so long in vain." The beautiful woman who used to be a girl and was now a young woman reached out her hand naturally and said, "Long time no see, Qin Sheng."
The beautiful woman with the strong smell of a young woman was called Liang Shuang. She used to be a big beauty in the School of Foreign Languages. Back then, she took the initiative to chase Qin Sheng and persisted for two years. She only gave up when she was sure that there was no chance. It was said that she met a son of an official who was chasing her. After that, there was no news of Qin Sheng.
Liang Shuang's conditions were not bad. Not to mention her natural appearance, she dared to be so confident in front of Su Qin. If she did not have some strength, she would be a laughing stock. Secondly, her family conditions were not bad. It was said that she was born in a diplomatic family. Her grandfather, maternal grandfather, and parents were all diplomats. This made her naturally arrogant and contemptuous of most of her pursuers.
Why did she like Qin Sheng? There was naturally a story behind it. Unfortunately, they were not fated to be together and missed each other.
Ever since Liang Shuang had a boyfriend, she and Qin Sheng did not have much contact. This time, she was instigated to come to the class reunion. It was because she happened to be on a business trip in Shanghai these few days. Plus, in this society, it was not a bad thing to hang out with classmates. Moreover, she was born in a diplomatic family, so she did not reject this kind of occasion.
However, Liang Shuang did not expect to see Qin Sheng here. She confirmed it was Qin Sheng after confirming again and again. Compared to Qin Sheng in the past, the current Qin Sheng seemed to be more calm, like a middle-aged uncle who had experienced the vicissitudes of life. Liang Shuang then walked over and sat next to Qin Sheng. She did not greet him in a conventional way. She directly asked Qin Sheng if he knew her. Qin Sheng's answer was also very interesting.
Liang Shuang used to be a famous big beauty when she was in the Outer Courtyard of Fudan University. She was especially popular. Now that she had entered the society, it was still the same. Therefore, when Liang Shuang sat next to Qin Sheng, some classmates had already begun to point at her. After all, Liang Shuang was so famous. Whether it was her family background or the power of her current in-laws, they were not simple at all.
How could Qin Sheng refuse a beauty who took the initiative to reach out her hand? However, after shaking hands, Liang Shuang did not seem to have any intention of letting go. She chuckled and said, "Although we haven't seen each other for five or six years, why do I find that you as a man have become more attractive? It seems that I shouldn't have given up on you back then. "
Qin Sheng felt a little helpless. Liang Shuang back then was more straightforward. Now, Liang Shuang was even more so. She was a woman who really knew how to use her own advantages to maximize her benefits. She was unworldly but shrewd. She was a very smart woman. Therefore, Qin Sheng felt that she was not suitable for him.
When she saw Qin Sheng again, Liang Shuang did not bear a grudge because she had been rejected by Qin Sheng back then. She also did not have the mentality of "you were indifferent to me in the past, but now I am unworthy of you". She was even more unwilling to guess what Qin Sheng's current identity was and how he was doing. These were all the ways she treated other classmates. When facing Qin Sheng, she only had one thing, that was, Qin Sheng was the boy she had liked back then.
At least, after observing for a long time, she found that Qin Sheng was still the same Qin Sheng back then. Although he had experienced the vicissitudes of life and was calm, what had not changed was still his character, unlike most of the other so-called classmates present, who had changed so much that they might not even be able to recognize themselves.
"I heard that you are also quite happy now, so you made the right choice back then," Qin Sheng had to reply politely.
Liang Shuang's eyes were a little sad as she said, "Only I know whether I am happy or not. I heard that you and Su Qin broke up later, so I quite regret giving up on you back then. Maybe it is you who is by my side now, isn't it?"
"Liang Shuang, we are not the same kind of people." Qin Sheng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Liang Shuang was a little confused. "Why not? Am I really not as good as Su Qin? "
"It has nothing to do with these things," Qin Sheng said in a low voice.
Liang Shuang did not want to talk about these things. She also heard about Qin Sheng and Su Qin breaking up later. She did not expect that the two people who used to love each other so deeply actually broke up. This made Liang Shuang very shocked. After all, no matter if it was Su Qin or Qin Sheng, they had pursued each other a lot. However, they had gone through four years of college and never had any emotional conflicts. Why did they break up just after college? This made a lot of people puzzled.
"You really broke up with Su Qin?" Liang Shuang changed the topic.
Qin Sheng nodded silently and said yes.
Liang Shuang seemed to be a little doubtful and continued to ask, "No more contact?"
"We saw each other before, but now we have no contact," Qin Sheng answered truthfully.
Liang Shuang replied very disappointedly, "That is really a bit of a pity."
Qin Sheng did not say anything more. He knew that there would definitely be a lot of students asking about this at the class reunion. After all, he and Su Qin were a celestial couple in many people's eyes at that time. However, these things that happened later, no one had expected it.
Liang Shuang no longer asked about love affairs. She asked again, "Let's talk about you. I haven't heard from you for five or six years. I don't know what you have been doing all these years. I also don't know where you are working now. Why didn't I know that you are coming to attend the class reunion?"
Liang Shuang's series of questions made Qin Sheng a little bit speechless. Fortunately, Qin Sheng had a good impression of Liang Shuang. Although there were these stories between them in the past, their relationship was still good, and there was no conflict.
So Qin Sheng replied, "I wandered from place to place in order to make a living, unlike you high-ranking officials' children or rich second-generation children. Nowadays, most of the time, I am in Beijing or Shanghai. If there is time, we can also get together. As for this class reunion, it is to accompany Xia Ding to kill time, and at the same time to meet old friends like you."
"Oh, no wonder. I was wondering why you were not on the list," Liang Shuang said thoughtfully, "In the future, if you are often in Shanghai, we can get together. I often come to Shanghai for business, if there is a chance, you can also go to Nanjing. Even if we can't be lovers, it is not bad to be friends."
"Whatever you say," Qin Sheng said half-jokingly.
Maybe it was because she was very happy to see Qin Sheng again, or maybe it was because the conversation atmosphere was good, Liang Shuang seemed to be in a good mood. She chatted with Qin Sheng for a long time before leaving. The others were quite envious of Qin Sheng. After all, there were not many female students who came to attend this class reunion, not to mention someone as outstanding as Liang Shuang. Whoever had such a relationship with her would definitely be amazing in the future.
At this time, almost all the students had arrived. The student who hosted the activity asked everyone to sit down. Liang Shuang had already left Qin Sheng's place and sat together with a few beauties, talking and laughing. At this time, Xia Ding also came back. He had already seen Liang Shuang coming over, so he secretly laughed and said, "Boss, are you going to continue the previous relationship?"
"A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory," Qin Sheng directly scolded.
Xia Ding clicked his tongue in wonder and said, "You don't say, this Liang Shuang is even more charming than when she was in university. If it were not for her in-laws being so powerful, I would also want to hook up with her."
"Oh, how powerful?" Qin Sheng asked curiously.
Xia Ding laughed and said, "Of course not as powerful as you, boss. But I heard that her in-laws are quite powerful in Sunan. I heard all this from Lao Si. He has seen Liang Shuang several times in Nanjing. Liang Shuang also asked about you, but Lao Si did not pay much attention to her."
Qin Sheng did not expect there to be such a story. No wonder Liang Shuang was qualified to attend the class reunion, and no wonder others dared not have too many ideas about Liang Shuang …
The class reunion finally began. It was a very normal procedure, there were not too many complicated things. They welcomed the school leaders and teacher representatives who came to attend. Then it was the school leaders and the person in charge of the class reunion who gave a speech. The person who gave a speech on the school's side was a vice president, which made Qin Sheng a little surprised. He did not expect Fudan to pay so much attention to this.
However, the person who gave a speech on the class reunion side was a student Qin Sheng did not know. Qin Sheng thought it was Cao Kefan. After all, he was the third-in-command of the student union back then. After Xia Ding explained, Qin Sheng understood why. It turned out that there were actually a few big shots in this class reunion. For example, this student who gave a speech, his family was worth tens of billions. How could he be simple?
