Chapter 1233: 851 Lift the car in... (Thanks for the tip!)
No one knows who Mr. Jiang is.
But Jiang Chen, after rekindling memories for most of the day, everyone from Sha City High School knows him, right?
"Swoosh."
Many people involuntarily looked in the same direction, their expressions astounded, without uttering a sound.
"There."
In the quietness, a nonchalant voice rang out.
It was Tong Dan.
It seemed like she was the only one who, as if nothing was amiss, pointed in Jiang Chen’s direction.
You should know that even the person himself was quite surprised.
That’s right.
Jiang Chen indeed didn’t recognize these middle-aged uncles, but that didn’t stop him from standing up out of basic manners and politeness.
After all, they called him by name, so at the very least, they knew him.
Once Jiang Chen stood up, he suddenly became a prominent and noticeable figure. Several imposing uncles looked over and then approached.
"Mr. Jiang, what a coincidence to meet you here. I’m Ren Dongliang."
Even though he was a whole generation older, the middle-aged man holding a wine glass introduced himself with a very polite demeanor.
The uncles behind him did the same, looking at Jiang Chen with big grins, exuding an almost "fawning" vibe.
If it were ordinary people, it might not be a big deal. They probably could afford to visit such high-class clubs, and even a blind man could sense, just by their demeanor and aura, that these uncles were either rich or noble!
The old classmates from Sha City High School looked at each other, their faces dumbfounded, their minds in complete disarray.
Sitting next to them, Xie Wendong, who wasn’t very good at social etiquette, didn’t mean he lacked intelligence. He couldn’t help but exchange glances with Ouyang Qing, both unable to hide their surprise.
Wu Yufei felt the same way, looking up at her old classmate who had become the center of attention, her delicate face showing astonishment.
Ren Dongliang.
The name was also very unfamiliar.
Perhaps guessing that Jiang Chen didn’t recognize him, Mr. Ren continued to speak with a smile: "When I entered, I saw my bicycle at the door and guessed that Mr. Jiang might be here. I hope I’m not interrupting your dinner?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
Turns out this was the owner of the luxury residence at Kade Mansion.
When Duan Xueying gave him the key, she mentioned that the owner of the villa was a friend of Duan Zhongxin.
Duan Zhongxin is the head of the Jin Hai-River City branch, and one could imagine the status of his friends.
"Mr. Ren, hello."
Jiang Chen revealed a smile.
"How’s the bike to ride?"
Ren Dongliang joked, perhaps he didn’t expect the other party to make use of his leisure time to actually ride his collectible bicycle.
Jiang Chen nodded, "Yesterday, I even took it for a spin around Yangkou Park."
Such an interesting young man.
In comparison, Ren Dongliang probably knew quite a bit about Jiang Chen’s background, and he raised his wine glass.
Jiang Chen picked up his glass of wine and felt it might not be quite appropriate.
Gatherings among classmates and this kind of social interaction naturally differ.
At the very least, he needed to consider the face of Duan Zhongxin.
"No worries, Mr. Jiang, it’s a pleasure to meet you."
The other party nonchalantly initiated a toast with Jiang Chen.
"Mr. Jiang, then I won’t interrupt your dinner any longer." After toasting, Ren Dongliang, marking a familiar acquaintance, led his group away. Despite the fact that these successful-looking uncles had left, the old classmates from Sha City High School sitting in the private room couldn’t help but let their imaginations run wild.
Especially Chi Jin, who was supposed to be the absolute main character today, had his limelight significantly usurped, and it seemed as though he had become a secondary character.
The once beaming Chi Jin now sat expressionless and silent.
He was able to keep his composure, but that didn’t mean everyone else had the same strong fortitude. This time, it wasn’t the male companions but instead a female classmate who couldn’t contain her overflowing curiosity.
"Jiang Chen, who... who were these people?"
In the entire private room, probably only Tong Dan remained indifferent, not even bothering to look at the focal point, Jiang Chen, and was still happily enjoying her meal.
"A friend of one of my elders," Jiang Chen simply explained, naturally and calmly.
A friend of an elder, that should count as an elder too.
They call you Mr. Jiang?
Perhaps there is a disparity in social status now, but undoubtedly, no fools were present.
"What do they do?" another male classmate probed further.
"I’m not sure," Jiang Chen replied serenely, as always truthful and sincere to these old classmates, yet to others, it sounded rather different.
Not sure?
Isn’t this just brushing them off?
If this had happened a few minutes earlier, surely someone would have started to grumble, but at this moment no one dared to probe any further.
The banquet fell back into silence.
"Jiang Chen, you’ve really kept a low profile," remarked a voice suddenly, seemingly in jest.
It was Chi Jin.
Even though today was a class reunion, he indisputably felt that his limelight had been stolen.
Having spent the money and effort, he obviously came to play the leading role.
Reduced to a supporting actor, how could one feel comfortable?
Of course.
Everyone here were old classmates, so they would definitely not express negative emotions directly at the dinner table. Chi Jin once again put on a smile, looking at Jiang Chen from across the table full of dishes and drinks.
"Why so humble in front of old classmates? Are you afraid of them asking for your help? Or borrowing money?" Even though it sounded like a joke, everyone sensed the subtleties in it.
Everyone looked around, none too eager to blindly interject.
And truth be told.
The question Chi Jin threw out wasn’t an easy one for Jiang Chen to answer, but today he had a good ally.
"You’ll get used to it. He’s just not the type to show off," Tong Dan remarked, as if it was none of her business.
Chi Jin’s smile stiffened slightly.
