It was normal to play dumb during one's school days. Even now, many people would choose to keep a low profile. Therefore, it was not surprising that there were a few who played dumb in this class reunion.
After all, during one's school days, most students had no choice. Whether it was personal freedom or financial freedom, most of them were controlled by their parents. Some students' families were stricter. Even if their families were worth tens of billions, they would only give less than a thousand yuan of living expenses. Some elders in their families, even if they were provincial or ministerial officials, still behaved like they were invisible in school. This was all a problem of family education.
For example, Lao Si in their dormitory kept a low profile during his four years in university. Only after he graduated did he realize that he was a super rich second generation.
Of course, not all families were like this. There were also many families that gave their juniors freedom or were relatively lenient. For example, Xia Ding's family was like this. There were also many who relied on their family background to get by with ease during their university days. This was a different choice for each family.
Therefore, Qin Sheng had never seen the person who was speaking at the moment in university, let alone had any impression of him. Now that he could speak as a representative and chat with the school leaders and classmates, it was obvious that he had already taken over the family business.
On Qin Sheng's left was Xia Ding. On his right was a classmate who used to play basketball in the same dormitory. This kid started his own business from scratch after graduation. It was said that he was now worth hundreds of millions. Now that the company's financing had reached the C series, he could be considered an elite in this class reunion.
However, he did not feel complacent or complacent because of his current success. He even took the initiative to sit beside Qin Sheng and Xia Ding and chat. He did not talk about work, etc. He only talked about the interesting things in the past. Back then, he often came to their dormitory to freeload Xia Ding's videos, so Qin Sheng had a good impression of him.
"Lao Qin, if it wasn't for Xia Ding, I really didn't know you were in Shanghai. When can we have a good gathering?" The man called Liu Yi patted Qin Sheng's shoulder and laughed.
Qin Sheng had a good impression of Liu Yi in the past. He felt good about Liu Yi now too. He said casually, "Sure, as long as I'm in Shanghai, anytime is fine. I'm just afraid that you, as the CEO, don't have time."
"That's right, Liu Yi, you're the CEO now. Who knows, maybe one day your company will be listed and you'll be worth tens of billions. Maybe you'll be the representative of the next class reunion. We'll have to suck up to you." Xia Ding had met Liu Yi a few times.
Liu Yi laughed and scolded him, "Ten billion my ass. It's not easy to start a business. Nowadays, the streets are full of CEOs. Tomorrow, they might sweep the streets. If my Series C can't be financed, I will go bankrupt in a few days. I'm not like you, a second-generation rich kid. You eat, drink and play every day and don't need to worry about these things."
"Is it really that bad?" Xia Ding frowned as he listened to the dignified speech. He had a good impression of Liu Yi, and he heard that his project was not bad. If he was really short of money, he did not mind investing in it. After all, he already controlled a certain amount of finances.
Liu Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly. "What do you think?"
Every family had its own difficulties. Don't be fooled by these students' bright and glamorous appearances. Who knew how much hardship they had to endure behind the scenes? Even a rich second generation like Xia Ding would have their own pressures to bear, let alone an entrepreneur like Liu Yi who had built his business from scratch.
Just when Xia Ding was about to say that he would go to Liu Yi's company for a stroll, Qin Sheng had already taken the initiative to offer an olive branch. "If you have time, send me your company's information. I'll help you ask if there are any investment institutions interested."
Xia Ding did not expect Qin Sheng to take the initiative and was somewhat surprised. He was afraid that Liu Yi would ignore Qin Sheng and think that Qin Sheng was just being polite or showing off casually. He quickly said, "Liu Yi, quickly thank Lao Qin. He knows more local tycoons than I do. Maybe he can solve your Series C problem."
Liu Yi was a little puzzled. Qin Sheng did not look like he was in the capital circle. Otherwise, why had he not heard any news about Qin Sheng? However, since Xia Ding had said so, he did not think much about it. Now that things had come to this, he could only treat it as a last resort. What if?
The representatives on the stage had finished their speeches, and the students from the class association
On behalf of the entire student association, the person in charge had donated 30 million yuan to Fudan University for a scholarship. It was said that the student whose family was worth 10 billion yuan had borne the limit of 10 million yuan alone. The rest was crowdfunded by the other big shots in the student association. Even Xia Ding had donated 1 million yuan.
Xia Ding had even told Qin Sheng about this. Don't be fooled by the fact that the big shots in the student association were usually good at boasting. They would only be able to see the essence when there was a real problem. They were all stingy like misers. It was not easy to gather this 20 million yuan.
Qin Sheng explained with a smile, "Do you think that rich people's money falls from the sky? They are smart with their money. If you ask him to buy a sports car or watch for himself, he can easily spend millions or even tens of millions. But if you ask him to donate, he may not necessarily do so. However, if you ask him to donate to Fudan University alone, he may donate tens of millions. Have you ever seen a successful person donating to his alma mater in the way you do?"
Xia Ding thought about it carefully and it seemed to be the case. It seemed that he had learned something. At the same time, he felt that he had donated too much 1 million yuan.
After the welcoming event ended, it was free time. Everyone could wander around the campus and reminisce about the good times in university. They could also visit their former teachers. However, it was still summer, so most of the teachers might not be in school. At the same time, the school had arranged a special place for them with fruits and snacks, so that everyone could interact and get closer to each other. Anyway, there were still two hours before the banquet. During this period, everyone could make their own arrangements.
As soon as Qin Sheng walked out of the lecture hall, he was stopped by Cao Kefan. Xia Ding's jinx was right. He felt somewhat helpless. He was about to ask if his aunt was in school so that he could have a cup of tea with her.
Cao Kefan, who was now surrounded by a few students, walked up to Qin Sheng and said, "Qin Sheng, do you still remember me? I'm Cao Kefan from the student association. I didn't expect to see you here. You don't seem to be on the list."
It seemed like a greeting, but it was obviously a mockery. How could Cao Kefan not know who was not on the list? Of course, he was saying that Qin Sheng was not doing well. Only those who were doing well could join the class gathering.
Qin Sheng did not care and said honestly, "I haven't joined the class gathering yet. I'm just here to join in the fun."
"Oh, I knew it. It's okay. I'll recommend you to join the class gathering later. But I have to say, it's not certain whether you will be approved or not. After all, the class gathering is not decided by me alone, "Cao Kefan said generously. If Qin Sheng was not grateful, he would be a little ungrateful.
Unfortunately, Qin Sheng did not give face to Cao Kefan. He directly shook his head and said, "No need."
Qin Sheng did not fall into the trap, but Cao Kefan did not stop there. He continued to change the topic and asked, "By the way, Qin Sheng, why didn't you bring Su Qin here? I haven't seen her for a long time. I heard that she is quite powerful now. When are you getting married? Remember to inform me. I'll prepare a big red packet for you."
Cao Kefan was obviously looking for trouble. He knew that Qin Sheng and Su Qin had broken up long ago, but he still asked Qin Sheng this deliberately. Xia Ding was a little annoyed and said, "Cao Kefan, what the hell do you mean? Are we very familiar with you?"
Being scolded by Xia Ding, Cao Kefan also felt a little embarrassed. He said, "Xia Ding, who are you scolding? What's wrong with me? We are classmates. I'm just asking. Can't I? You're meddling in other people's business. "
Obviously, neither of them was afraid of the other. Cao Kefan could become the Vice President of the Student Union at that time. Naturally, his family background was not simple. But Xia Ding was not weak either. Moreover, he was standing up for Qin Sheng. What was there to be afraid of?
Qin Sheng did not want to make things big at the class gathering. He said disapprovingly, "I've broken up with Su Qin, so you don't have to give me your red packet."
"Oh, you've broken up? Then I'm sorry, I'm sorry. "Cao Kefan apologized very politely, but the expression on his face showed that he did not mean to apologize. Then he said," Well, it's good that you broke up. Su Qin is so outstanding. You may not be worthy of her. Breaking up is something that will happen sooner or later. Don't be sad. You will find a better one sooner or later. "
This was already a naked insult. Xia Ding could not bear it anymore. He did not want to talk to Cao Kefan at all. He wanted to directly teach this guy a lesson. However, Qin Sheng still pulled Xia Ding and said, "You don't need to worry about this.
If there's nothing else, we'll leave first. "
This time, Cao Kefan did not stop him, and Qin Sheng did not argue with him either. They directly left with Xia Ding. After they walked far away, Cao Kefan, who was behind them, laughed out loud. This kind of humiliation gave him an unprecedented pleasure and sense of accomplishment. "Qin Sheng, weren't you very powerful in school? Now that you have entered society, you still have to bow to reality. Do you dare to offend me?
At the same time, Cao Kefan's friends next to him helped him. They did not know why Su Qin was so blind that she chose such a boyfriend. She really had no taste. Some people also said, "Su Qin did not look for you, Lao Cao. That was her own bad luck." Some people said, "I knew they would break up. Su Qin was so outstanding. What was Qin Sheng?"
This was the way of the circle. Sometimes, when you were in a good position, there would be people who could not wait to stand up for you without saying anything. Cao Kefan had long been used to this kind of environment. After all, these classmates who were in Shanghai still needed his help more or less.
After Qin Sheng walked far away, Xia Ding could not help but say, "Boss, what's going on? Why did you stop me?"
Qin Sheng felt it a little funny and said, "Is it necessary? If I really want to deal with him, I don't need to do it here. There are so many classmates watching. As long as he does not go too far, I will let it go. But if he really goes too far, don't blame me for being rude. "
After Xia Ding heard that, he sighed and said, "When did your temper become so good?"
"I just want to calm down in Shanghai. There is no need to make things difficult for anyone. If I really want to make trouble, Beijing is more lively than Shanghai." Qin Sheng held his head with his hands and said with nothing to do. He thought about the disturbance with Chen Taihe a few days ago. Until now, there was no movement at all. Could it be that Chen Taihe really chose to let it go?
Xia Ding was called away by a classmate who had a good relationship with him. Qin Sheng had nothing to do, so he called his Small Aunt. His Small Aunt was really in Fudan University. However, she had just come out from the principal's office. Qin Sheng smiled and said that he was also in Fudan University. Zhu Qingwen did not believe it. Qin Sheng asked his Small Aunt to wait there and he would come over immediately.
Zhu Qingwen waited for a few minutes in the general office building. Qin Sheng appeared in front of her. He laughed and said, "Small Aunt, are you surprised?"
"Why did you come to school?" Zhu Qingwen was very puzzled. Of course, she knew that Qin Sheng graduated from Fudan University. The most regretful thing was that she did not know Qin Sheng's identity when he was studying at Fudan University. If she had known, how good it would have been.
Qin Sheng deliberately joked and said, "If I said I came to see you, Small Aunt, would you believe me?"
"Yes, yes, yes. I believe everything you say." Zhu Qingwen touched the back of Qin Sheng's head and said happily. No matter Qin Sheng or Qin Ran, no matter how old they were, they would always be children in front of her.
Zhu Qingwen casually found a bench and sat down. Only then did Qin Sheng smile and explain what was going on. After listening to him, Zhu Qingwen finally understood. No wonder Qin Sheng came to look for her. Anyway, she had nothing to do at the moment, so Qin Sheng had nothing to do. Zhu Qingwen pulled Qin Sheng to sit on the bench and chatted. They talked about some trivial things in life. Most of what Qin Sheng talked about was his college life in Fudan University.
Such a casual scene between Zhu Qingwen and Qin Sheng was seen by a man and a woman coming out of the general building. The woman saw Qin Sheng chatting happily with the female leader of the school whom she seemed to know a little. She was somewhat surprised. How did Qin Sheng know her?
When the man saw this scene, he was not surprised at all. He had heard about this relationship, and now it was just a direct proof.
The woman was no other than Liang Shuang, the beautiful campus belle who was born in a diplomatic family. The man was relatively low-key during his college days. Now that he returned to school, he was the one who played the pig to eat the tiger on behalf of his classmates.
Seeing Liang Shuang's puzzled expression, the man lowered his head and chuckled. "Are you surprised?"
Liang Shuang replied directly, "Do you know something that I don't?"
"Do you want to know?" The man deliberately kept her in suspense.
Liang Shuang said without hesitation, "Yes."
The man was still keeping her in suspense. He sighed and said, "Liang Shuang, Liang Shuang, if you had persisted for two more years, maybe your family would have been successful by now. How could you be content with a corner?"
