Chapter 1223: Class Reunion (3)
Flat leather shoes.
Black stockings.
Short skirt.
A small Chanel-style black and white checkered jacket.
Wu Yufei, passing through the courtyard, brought a light scent of perfume, which at the same time, almost attracted the gaze of every male present.
Even after she sat down next to Ouyang Qing, they couldn’t bear to look away.
Ouyang Qing started chatting with her.
"Brother Dong, who is this?"
Someone gestured to Xie Wendong with their eyes.
Without a doubt.
This beauty must also be an alumna of Sha City High School, familiar with Ouyang Qing like this; it’s no surprise that she must be from Xie Wendong’s class.
That’s the logic, but looking at the beauty who arrived, Xie Wendong found it hard to believe.
Yu Fei?
Could it be Wu Yufei?
In his memory, she rarely spoke in class, daily wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses that seemed even larger than her face, demure and weak. If it weren’t for the pitifully few girls in their science class, she surely wouldn’t have stood out at all.
"Are you Wu Yufei?"
Xie Wendong couldn’t help but blurt out to confirm.
She looked towards him, and beyond her slender and delicate figure, she was almost unrecognizable from her former self.
"Class monitor, long time no see."
Although he had changed a lot in build, at least his face hadn’t gotten much fatter, and she recognized him at a glance.
Indeed it is.
Xie Wendong was astonished, looking at his classmate who had transformed so much that he momentarily didn’t know what to say.
Seemingly finding his reaction amusing, Ouyang Qing glanced at the "peeping" male classmates and announced loudly, "This is Wu Yufei, from our class fourteen."
Mhm.
She seemed quite proud, as if basking in the glory.
The stunning Wu Yufei smiled shyly, her cherry lips rosy and inviting, causing some of the ogling animals to feel an itch they couldn’t scratch.
"Class fourteen had such a beauty?"
Whispers started to spread.
"I remember now, she was very ordinary before, wearing glasses, always carrying books as she passed by our classroom. Back then, her face also had some freckles, and she wasn’t as good-looking as Ouyang Qing."
A male classmate from the neighboring class fifteen recounted.
"The ugly duckling turned into a swan?"
They couldn’t help but look again at Wu Yufei, who had undergone a significant change in appearance.
Indeed.
It really is like the story of the ugly duckling.
But perhaps also because every flower blooms in its own season.
Some blossom in spring, and some may not open until summer.
"Men,"
Ouyang Qing shook his head, "Look at them, their eyes are all wide. Did they ever give you a second glance before? So realistic."
Wu Yufei, who had been quite mediocre throughout her high school life, responded with a smile but no words.
"I have a piece of bad news and a piece of good news for you; which one do you want to hear first?"
Ouyang Qing ignored the smelly men.
"Let’s hear the good news first."
Wu Yufei batted her eyelashes, though her appearance had changed drastically, some of her mannerisms and character remained the same as before.
Previously, she was also delicate and frail, easily stirring up a desire to protect her. Plus, there were only five girls in their class, and as the discipline monitor, Ouyang Qing took good care of her.
"Are you sure?"
"Let’s hear the bad news then."
She really hasn’t changed a bit, no opinion of her own at all.
Ouyang Qing laughed, then said, "The bad news is, Jiang Chen will also be coming later."
Upon hearing this news, Wu Yufei, who could be described as having gone through a metamorphosis, visibly paused.
"...I hadn’t heard about this before."
"I only found out just now too."
Ouyang Qing looked in the direction of Xie Wendong, "Our class monitor said so, he ran into Jiang Chen yesterday while walking in Yangkou Park, so he invited him."
"What a coincidence."
Wu Yufei murmured, distracted and apparently lost in thought.
"Isn’t that the truth."
"And the good news?"
"The good news is..."
Ouyang Qing drew out her words, "that Jiang Chen is going to be there."
Wu Yufei looked at her.
Ouyang Qing met her gaze.
"Pfft."
Wu Yufei couldn’t help but chuckle.
"What are you laughing at?" Ouyang Qing nudged her.
"Stop joking around."
"What joke did I make?"
With a puzzled look, Ouyang Qing then lowered her voice with a sly gleam in her eyes, "Xie Wendong just mentioned that Jiang Chen is even more handsome now than he was back then."
Though everyone was old classmates, some secrets might only be known to a very few.
Like, for instance.
Wu Yufei once had a crush on Jiang Chen.
Of course.
To be more precise, she had a fondness for him.
But at that time, one was oblivious to everything outside his studies, while the other was shy and introverted, so that sentiment was buried deep down, never even having a chance to see the light of day.
Not everybody has the courage to be fearless.
Feelings during adolescence are more often left unspoken and come to nothing.
"What are you thinking about?"
Ouyang Qing nudged her again.
Wu Yufei came back to her senses, smiling lightly, "I have spoken to him even less than you have in the past three years; he probably doesn’t even remember me."
Ouyang Qing feigned a sigh, "Why do I sense a hint of a resentful woman in your words?"
Wu Yufei blushed, whispering a reminder, "Today is a class reunion, don’t talk nonsense. It would be bad to cause a misunderstanding. If you continue to talk nonsense, I’m leaving."
With that, she pretended to rise.
Ouyang Qing held her wrist, "Alright, I’ll keep my mouth shut, that should work."
Wu Yufei then sat back down.
Ouyang Qing released her hand, "We haven’t seen each other for just a couple of months, how come you seem to have lost even more weight?"
She advised with concern, "With such pressure at work, you might as well switch to a different company."
Wu Yufei forced a smile, tucking her hair behind her ear, "It’s not easy to find a good job nowadays."
Ouyang Qing nodded in agreement, understanding all too well. Both were fresh forces stepping into society, experiencing the pressure of life for the first time.
"That’s true, I probably won’t last long at this company either. Nowadays, finding a satisfying job is harder than finding a good man."
"There are so many male classmates here today, why not take the opportunity to scope one out on the spot?"
"Great, I stopped talking and now you’re the one being sarcastic? When Jiang Chen arrives, do you want me to inform him that there was a girl who pined for him back in the day to the point of neglecting her meals and growing out of her clothes with no regrets..."
Wu Yufei’s personality hadn’t changed since high school, still easily embarrassed. Upon hearing those words, her cheeks immediately heated up, and she quickly conceded, "Okay, I spoke out of turn, alright?"
Ouyang Qing smirked triumphantly, her expression saying, "That’s more like it."
"Chi Jin said they’ll be arriving soon, let’s go out and wait."
Gao Jianqiang put away his phone and stood up, heading outside.
Go out and wait?
Weren’t all of them, including Wu Yufei just now, able to find their own way in?
But the point is, he’s one of the organizers and initiators of the reunion, and also the "sponsor", so giving him this much face seems justifiable.
As Gao Jianqiang set an example, the others, whether willing or not, had no choice but to stand up too, but some couldn’t resist murmuring behind his back.
"Putting on such a serious face, turns out he’s just a bootlicker."
"Don’t you know how he got into the tobacco bureau? That’s all thanks to Chi Jin’s connections."
"Really?"
"Could just anyone get into the tobacco bureau? He only went to a second-tier university, what do you think got him in?"
"And here I was, thinking he was impressive..."
"Keep it down, will you?"
