Chapter 422: Chapter 424: Crisis for the Tang Family Army!
Assistant Weiwei was stunned.
This time, inviting Tang Zhong to act as her boyfriend, she hadn’t informed him and thought he would be very angry, but now, hearing his words, she felt somewhat moved.
"Professor Tang, after this is over, I want to repay you, no matter what it takes, I am willing!"
Even if it meant offering up her body, she would not hesitate!
Assistant Weiwei understood that when Peter abandoned her, the words he said touched her heart, so she had to strike back.
Tang Zhong just smiled and was then escorted by Nailer to the dinner table.
By the huge round table stood people of various ethnicities, with Tang Zhong being the only person of Asian descent there.
A big group of people were chatting and laughing, completely ignoring Tang Zhong and Nailer.
After all, these people were either accompanied by their husbands or by their wives.
They were all pouring drinks for each other.
The drinks opened were Hennessy and XO, and they were drinking merrily.
Moreover, at high school reunions, it’s mostly about showing off, with the men flattering each other.
A white man who seemed to have been the class president back then stood up with his glass in hand at this moment.
"Fellow classmates, it’s probably been many years since we last saw each other, right? I’m not sure where everyone is working now? Let’s share a bit!"
This is what class reunions are like.
Some people attain minor successes and like to show off.
Corporate executives, group general managers, whatever you can think of, they have it!"
Every classmate’s introduction would bring about a round of applause, while they considered when it might be appropriate to strike up a light conversation.
Meanwhile, Tang Zhong and Nailer stood by without saying a word, with no one asking them anything.
Tang Zhong couldn’t be bothered to talk to these people either.
"I heard recently, Albert, you’ve become one of the King’s favorites?" a bald man said, raising his glass to another well-groomed man.
The well-groomed man stood up and smiled, "Just advising and strategizing for the King!"
"But that’s for the King of Buge Country, and you’re strategizing? Albert, have you become a war advisor?" exclaimed the bald man.
The well-groomed man smiled and nodded.
A group of people immediately went up to offer him a toast.
Previously, Jenny stood out as she was among the best married women, respected for her status among the female students, holding a stemmed glass.
"As the saying goes, marry the right man, and my husband is now the CEO of a listed company!"
Instantly, a large group of female students looked at Jenny with envy. The CEO of a listed company indeed overshadowed the corporate executives from their families.
"Jenny, you were beautiful in school, and now you’re even more so!"
"You’re much better than that so-called ’class flower’ Nailer. I think Jenny is the real class flower!"
"Unlike Nailer, choosing a professor for a husband, it’s laughable!"
A group of female students toasted each other.
Upon hearing this, Jenny smiled proudly.
Then a bespectacled plump woman with curly hair, who seemed to have had a bit too much to drink, said to Nailer, "You know, Nailer, you were so pretty back then, but now, how come you’re still so poor? Look at your boyfriend, a university professor, and then look at my husband, the owner of a small company, there’s simply no comparison!"
Nailer didn’t say anything; she wasn’t the mercenary type. Many wealthy men had pursued her, but that wasn’t the kind of love she wanted, so she turned them down, only managing an awkward smile.
Her target wasn’t her, but Peter in the distance.
The man who had hurt her before.
Peter, dressed in black, was still drinking in the distance.
At this moment, the bald man began talking about Peter, "Speaking of our group, the one who’s made it the best has to be Peter. He has become a Great General under the One-Eyed Warlord!"
The term Great General made everyone’s eyes light up.
After all, that was the One-Eyed Warlord they were talking about!
One of the thirteen heroes of Si Bo Island, even more formidable than a king. Just being a Great General warranted respect from the King of Buge Country when they met.
And at this moment, Peter, clad in black, started laughing.
The classmates around him all had eager eyes, as they went up to him, one by one, to offer a toast.
Meanwhile, Nailer’s expression grew even uglier. This man had become a Great General, and not just any, but under the One-Eyed Warlord no less. She realized she stood no chance at revenge.
"Professor, let’s go," Nailer said.
"Why leave? The gathering isn’t over yet," Tang Zhong said indifferently.
"...But there’s no need to stay anymore, staying would only bring humiliation!" Nailer said.
"Not at all!" Tang Zhong said with a smile.
Nailer was startled, not knowing what to say, remembering the mockery Tang Zhong had endured following her today, she felt very uncomfortable.
At this time, as Peter was being toasted, he burst into laughter and said, "Yes indeed, I am a Great General under our brother, the One-Eyed Snake..."
As soon as these words came out, they sparked a clamorous reaction among the crowd, and the looks toward Peter grew even more fervent.
One must know, that was a Great General, after all.
"Right, big brother Peter, tell us about the matters between you warlords!" the previous bald man said.
"Yes, yes, yes!" someone immediately echoed.
"I heard that recently a warlord named Tang Tiansha has risen. I don’t know if big brother Peter has heard of him? I’ve heard people say that this Tang Tiansha will become the fourteenth hero of Si Bo Island!"
Peter was still smiling, but when he heard the name Tang Tiansha, a cold sneer appeared on his face. "Tang Tiansha, he’s not fit to be counted among the heroes of Si Bo Island!"
"Why not? I think Tang Tiansha’s development is very rapid, could there be some hidden reason behind it?" someone asked.
With an air of superiority, Peter looked around at the people and said, "Of course, there’s a hidden reason. Let me tell you, the thirteen heroes of Si Bo Island have quietly held a meeting to deal with this Tang Tiansha. Very soon, he will be wiped out!"
"Really?" the crowd exclaimed in surprise.
This was not something one could find in the newspapers.
Tang Zhong was drinking on the side, and he couldn’t help but laugh when he heard these words. He had not expected that he would hear such news at this gathering—that the thirteen heroes of Si Bo Island were actually going to join forces to take him down.
"Of course!" Peter continued, "A few days ago, our boss, the One-Eyed Snake, already sent our Great General Meng Luo to visit Tang Tiansha’s base. Do you know? The moment Tang Tiansha heard my brother’s name, he was so frightened that he knelt down on the spot. It was such a disgraceful sight!"
Upon hearing this, someone said, "I originally thought this Tang Tiansha would be very powerful, becoming one of the fourteen heroes. Turns out he’s just a paper tiger!"
"I think so too!"
"Not only that, but Tang Tiansha also said he wants to surrender to our boss, the One-Eyed Snake. When the time comes, even I won’t have as high a status as his!" Peter went on.
The people around him looked at Peter with even greater admiration. Having a higher status than Tang Tiansha, Peter really was impressive.
At that moment, a female student turned to Nailer and said, "Nailer, did you hear that? Peter is so amazing now. I remember there was romance between you two back then. Look at you, if you had let Peter have his way with you back then, maybe your status would be soaring by now, and you wouldn’t have to endure such a harsh scolding!"
"Right, right, you wouldn’t have to resort to dating a university professor. When will you ever get to have a home of your own?" another woman chimed in.
After saying this, they couldn’t help but roll their eyes at Tang Zhong.
Nailer seemed even more apologetic. No matter what Tang Zhong did, she had decided to give him her first time.
"Professor..."
"It’s nothing!" Tang Zhong said with a smile.
He had been drinking tea all along. At that moment, setting down his teacup, he looked at Peter in the distance and said, "When your boss sent someone to find Tang Tiansha, did they also blow up one of Tang Tiansha’s helicopters?"
