Yang Rui did not seem to be lying. Most of the students present could see that. However, they knew very well that the possibility of Yang Rui getting what he wanted was actually very small. How could it be so coincidental that Chen Xiaonan would also appear at the class reunion?
Some things, once missed, were destined to never be found again. Obviously, emotional matters had obvious characteristics. If one were to blindly cling to a certain state of the past, it would be a little too idealistic and immature. After all, several years had passed in a hurry.
Therefore, while the students were lamenting Yang Rui's loyalty, they actually had their own thoughts. They seemed to have a new understanding of Yang Rui.
"Brother, there are some things that should not be forced. How about you tell us about your life? How have you been all these years?"
At this time, Keke asked about Yang Rui's current situation, bypassing the question about Chen Xiaonan. During their university days, he was relatively close to Yang Rui.
"Yes, I'm running a small business."
Yang Rui hesitated for a moment before answering. Ever since he dropped out of school, he had been running a fish stall to make a living. It had been less than two years since he entered the game.
The students saw that Yang Rui seemed to be a little hesitant in his answer. Considering that there might be something that was difficult to say, they did not ask further.
Yang Rui dropped out of school halfway and did not receive any education or degree from the university. It was conceivable that it was impossible for him to pursue a medical profession. Naturally, it was impossible for him to enter the organization with his education or degree. He probably could only rely on himself to make a living.
Therefore, if this topic continued, it might be a little awkward. Some of the surrounding students had already begun to chat about other things.
"Hey, students, look who's coming over..."
"..."
At this time, Xue Qiang's voice rang out again. There was a new student outside the entrance of the hall.
"Ah! Isn't this Doctor Wei? No, no, it should be Director Wei. You're the fastest in our class. "
"Hahahaha, you think too highly of me. What director? He's just a chief physician. It's nothing... "
"..."
The newcomer was his classmate, Wei Meng. At the same time, she brought her newlywed wife. Wei Meng humbly explained to his classmates. But it could be seen that he was satisfied with becoming a chief physician in a few years.
In Yang Rui's impression, Wei Meng was an honest classmate. During his university days, he didn't show much of his talent. There was nothing outstanding about him. His family background wasn't too good either. He was born in the countryside, but he had a good head.
At this time, Wei Meng appeared to be much more capable and experienced. She was no longer as quiet as she was in university. Under normal circumstances, it was already very impressive to become a chief physician in three to five years. At least, most of Yang Rui's classmates could not reach this level.
"Oh, this must be my sister-in-law. She's so beautiful. Wei Meng, you are so lucky to have married such a good sister-in-law. You are so lucky …
… "
"Hahaha, that's right. Wei Meng, your wife is so beautiful …"
… "
"…"
… "
The girls present showered Wei Meng's wife with praises, causing the couple to gain a lot of face.
However, Xiao Ni, who was next to Yang Rui, didn't say anything. During their university days, she seemed to have an inexplicable experience with Wei Meng. Although they didn't become a couple, there seemed to be signs of it. However, they were already in their fifth year when they started dating. Time did not allow for it.
"Yang Rui, do you know? Wei Meng's wife's father is the director of the XA Chinese Medicine Hospital. He was able to become a chief physician so quickly because of this old man... "
"..."
Xiao Ni whispered to Yang Rui. She seemed to have a natural hostility toward Wei Meng.
In response, Yang Rui only smiled and nodded. He expressed his understanding to Xiao Ni and didn't say anything else.
Situations like Wei Meng's were very common. Sometimes, a choice could save you years or even decades of hard work. This was very normal. Yang Rui had experienced too many real-life examples. In fact, he didn't feel anything about this kind of situation.
"Hey. You are? "
"Oh, this is Yang Rui. He dropped out of school in his fourth year. It's a pity..."
"..."
"Oh, Yang Rui. No wonder I know you so well. I thought you were someone's family member. Hello, hello..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Wei Meng greeted all the students who had already arrived. He didn't seem to have any impression of Yang Rui. In the end, under Keke's introduction, he also shook hands with Yang Rui. However, his tone and expression were more perfunctory.
Yang Rui didn't care about this. The behavior of the students around him was just a microcosm of society. Life was full of helplessness and opportunities. Wei Meng was able to marry a capable wife. At least he was good enough in some aspects.
Even with Xiao Ni's words, of course, Yang Rui wouldn't be affected by Wei Meng's perfunctory attitude. The purpose of his trip was to try his luck and see if he could get any information about Chen Xiaonan. As for the other students, the better they could do, the happier Yang Rui would be.
After Wei Meng's arrival, the peak of the crowd for Yang Rui's class reunion had also arrived. Not long after, out of the 30 students in the class, more than 20 had arrived at the XA International Hotel. Yang Rui and a group of students had already moved to the reserved room on the 30th floor.
As usual, in this class reunion, it seemed that the students who arrived later were the most important ones. Perhaps these people were really busy. Except for the class monitor, Xue Qiang, who came out to greet the students, several key people who organized the class reunion were the last to arrive.
"Oh, Chen Hongwei, Chief Chen, I've been waiting for you. Come and sit here, sit here. I heard that you're going to be promoted to Deputy Director..."
"..."
Yang Rui noticed that Wei Meng's personality had indeed changed a lot. When some ordinary students arrived, he just sat in his seat and nodded. Only four or five students related to his work made him stand up and even take the initiative to greet them.
Perhaps Wei Meng could only be regarded as an example of an ordinary person's success. Most of the dozen or so students who arrived after him could be said to be successful people, especially two or three of them who came from very good family backgrounds and were quite successful in their careers. They were not comparable to ordinary students at all.
Yang Rui also didn't care too much about this. When the first few students were there, they still talked to him. As more and more people came, the students seemed to be divided into small circles. Yang Rui found that it seemed to be difficult for him to fit in.
Therefore, Yang Rui just sat in the corner and didn't make a sound. He opened his five senses and paid attention to whether Chen Xiaonan would appear among the people who came.
It wasn't until a classmate came that Yang Rui was noticed by everyone again.
"Hey, isn't this Yang Rui, Grand Secretary Yang? Why did you suddenly appear at the class reunion? I thought I would never see you again... "
"..."
