I am financially free

Chapter 108, class reunion

There are thousands of roads, safety first.

Due to the snow, Jiang Chen drove very slowly on the return road. By the time he got home, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

After having dinner with his mother who was waiting for him, his father who was returning from visiting relatives, and others, Jiang Chen went back to the room and took off his coat, turned on the air conditioner and electric blanket, and went into hibernation without hesitation.

In this harsh weather with heavy snow falling outside and temperatures of several degrees below zero, nothing is more reassuring than a warm quilt.

Wrapped up in the quilt, Jiang Chen skillfully opened his phone and carefully looked through the day's news and Moments updates.

……

Ten long minutes passed, and the expression on Jiang Chen's face was extremely exciting:

Perhaps because of the particularity of the date, the "transparent friends" who were not always able to post a few updates in the past year actually took these two days to post some videos about themselves giving gifts during the holidays, living a tiring life, and helping with cooking and picture dynamics.

He didn't know whether it was a real help or a fake help. After a brief struggle, Jiang Chen was relieved: having such a natural desire to share is not a normal thing.It is much better than lying in bed motionless and watching a dozen videos from morning to night.

"Daughter-in-law~"

After carefully reading Chen Yuwei's experience records that were almost the same as his own, Jiang Chen responded with a dishonorable expression, and then typed in a comforting tone:

"It's been hard work! Are you free tomorrow? Would you like me to help you relax?"

At home during the holidays, making video calls does not guarantee that Chen Yuwei will be convenient. After all, it is only after eight o'clock. If Uncle Chen and the others are chatting in the living room, it will be embarrassing for Jiang Chen who sends voice calls and makes calls.

"Tomorrow?"

Chen Yuwei automatically ignored the conversation of her father's friend who came to visit relatives at home, and sat in the corner silently holding her cell phone.It's not that she doesn't want to participate, it's just that she really can't join the topic. The age difference between the two generations is only more than 20 years, but Chen Yuwei feels that the generation gap between the two generations is bigger than the natural chasm!
The 28th of the twelfth lunar month is probably the last free day before the Chinese New Year. I will continue to prepare ingredients and give gifts on the 29th, and post new couplets on the [-]th, followed by the Spring Festival Gala and Chinese New Year... I want to squeeze out some time in this dense arrangement...

"Not very good."

Chen Yuwei sat on the sofa and mumbled twice, typing a reply with a grievance expression, and hummed in her heart:
"There's a high school class reunion tomorrow, isn't there one at your place?"

"So..." Jiang Chen was stunned.

I opened the high school class group chat that I had blocked for a long time and took a look. The class group chat that used to be like a pool of stagnant water actually had a lot of unread messages.

During the days when he was in school, there was a difference in education policy between Hongzhi classes and ordinary classes. Although his class teacher, Teacher Zhang, had not changed in the past three years, he actually stayed with him for the last two years just like Liu Yang and Qian Dongdong. The high school classmates are all the group with relatively good grades - they are also the same group who stayed together in the last two years of high school.

Coincidentally, at the same time, Qian Dongdong and Liu Yang, the former class monitor and deputy squad leader, who were bored at home, were frantically following Jiang Chen, who had not said a word for several days, and other "classmates who were buried in the Yellow River."

"Hey hey hey! It would be rude not to come out again!"

Qian Dongdong kept complaining in his heart.

There is no response to single AT or group AT. Guys like Jiang Chen are like no one else!
It's all because Jiang Chen and others forced voting arrangements during the squad leader election. Otherwise, the matter of holding the party would never have been on his shoulders.

Seeing that everyone else was showing up one by one, Jiang Chen, who found it troublesome, could no longer pretend to be silent and sent an emoticon while others were chatting:
"Happy New Year everyone!"

Qian Dongdong: "Bah! What kind of strong wind blew our Mr. Jiang here?" Liu Yang: "Your emoticon is not as old as the lotus flower in full bloom..."

Faced with the "malicious teasing" of the two young adults, Jiang Chen, who was curled up in bed, felt helpless.

Why did these two guys throw the topic to themselves intentionally or unintentionally?He is very "social fear", okay?

"Let's get down to business, let's get down to business. I'm free tomorrow. Where are you guys?"

"It's all okay..." "We can discuss it, I'll be there when you call!" "Okay, okay..."

Fortunately, under the organization of the two people, the group quickly became lively.Before Jiang Chen could tell Chen Yuwei how long he would be busy, Qian Dongdong sent a long text announcement including the location and time:
"Then it's settled, we'll be at the Quanhua Hotel at [-] noon tomorrow! Those students who I hope can be contacted must catch up with each other tomorrow! I haven't had a good drink before...tomorrow..."

"must!"

"must!"

"must!"

……

After Liu Yang and Jiang Chen copied and pasted, a series of unified replies appeared directly in the lively group chat.

At the beginning, their classes were large classes, with a maximum of four and fifty students in one class. Unfortunately, as time went by, there were always ten or twenty students. Under the gradually increasing pressure of life, this group of people who struggled together in the past Some of my classmates chose to forget.

Until just now, including acquaintances such as Liu Yang, Qian Dongdong, and Cheng Hua, only thirty students had finally agreed verbally.

"Daughter-in-law, I may be busy tomorrow too."

"It's okay, I just want to participate too, haha~"

Having been disrupted by this unexpected episode, Jiang Chen chose to do the same thing as Chen Yuwei.There will be plenty of time in the future, since Liu Yang and the others are all invited, how inappropriate is it not to go?
……

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Quanhua Restaurant.

As hosts, Liu Yang and Qian Dongdong attentively accompanied two tables of old classmates to laugh and chat.

Maybe they were afraid of comparisons and inquiries about their current situation after meeting each other, or maybe they simply didn’t pay much attention to this former classmate relationship. In the end, the classmate was unable to come due to various reasons such as difficult childbirth, sudden visit of relatives, need to work overtime, etc. , accounting for ten more places...

However, this was already within everyone's expectations. The world of adults is different after all.

It has been more than four years since they graduated from high school, and the current situations of the students who have gone their separate ways are varied. Some are continuing their studies, some are working outside, and some, like Jiang Chen, have successfully landed, and each of them has entered a new life.

Fortunately, most of the classmates who came today are still only 22 or [-] years old. They have just started their lives, and the feelings between classmates have not changed much.

Scenes such as "Mr. Liu, your car is really rich", "Old Liu has become rich recently", "How much is my worth" and other bloody scenes of showing off wealth did not appear.

Or maybe everyone got wind of it and knew it well... No matter how rich he is, he can't compare to Jiang Chen from Kai Lafa?
