Not a god

Chapter 240 Classmates
A Maybach drove off the ring road. Inside were two men and two women. Cheng Borui, sitting in the passenger seat, asked a girl in the back seat, "It seems like the semi-finals are happening these two days. Hongying, are you sure you can get a ticket?"

Chen Hongying rolled her eyes at him: "If you say you have tickets, then you have tickets. Why are you making so many excuses?"

The girl sitting next to her said gently, "Actually, we don't necessarily have to go to the game. It seems like we haven't come back together to get together since graduating from university. How about we go back to our old school for a visit?"

Chen Hongying said arrogantly, "What's so interesting about that? I'm not going."

"I'm not going here, I'm not going there. What's so interesting about the competition? You're not some chosen one."

Seeing that the two people in the car were about to start arguing again, Ji Jialiang, who was driving, looked helplessly to the side and pointed to the others in the car: "Look over there, that's the Dream Watching Tower..."

The two people in the car leaned close to the window to look, looking as if they had learned something new.

"So this is what it looks like. It's pretty much the same as the pictures I saw online!"

"Is it just a tower?"

"That large area of ​​land over there belongs to the government's Taiwan Affairs Office, it's about 30 acres..."

"Could we go over and take a look?"

"It's a very sensitive situation right now. There are armed police forces stationed inside, and it seems there are also second-tier Chosen Ones. At most, you can only look at them from a distance. If you go too close, they'll stare at you and think you're up to something."

Chen Hongying wanted to boast that she could get in with just a word, but she felt that these people wouldn't believe her if she made such a big claim, and she also felt that her younger brother probably didn't have that much power.

Ji Jialiang glanced back at them and asked, "We're going to Tianfu Square first, right?"

"Hey! Tianfu Square, Songzi Street, I've already shared my location in the group chat!"

The girl in the back seat said, "Tianfu Square is different now than before. It's a great place to shop now. Shall we go there and take a look later?"

Cheng Borui, who had just been arguing with Chen Hongying, also said, "Hey, right, I need to go to Tianfu Square to refresh my login point. Although I have internet access near my home, I haven't seen many monsters after walking around the streets for half a day after logging in!"

Chen Hongying couldn't resist teasing him: "Isn't that great? You'd be unhappy if you really encountered a weirdo."

As expected, the two started arguing again.

The other two people in the car were quite helpless.

They were close friends in college, and they both attended university in Jiangcheng. However, they lost touch after graduating a few years ago. Chen Hongying went back to her hometown to become a physical education teacher, while the boy in the passenger seat and the girl in the back seat were a couple. Oh wait, these two got married and registered their marriage last year. After graduation, they also went back to their hometown to work, while the boy driving stayed in Jiangcheng.

Cheng Borui asked casually, "Jialiang, you're still single?"

"Huh? Hmm."

"You're almost thirty, aren't you?"

"...I'm not in a hurry."

"Aren't your family members pressuring you? Your family has billions in assets waiting for someone to inherit them."

"I don't have any billions in assets, it's just a small business."

"By the way, will Yun Xiaoting be coming over later? I heard she's been pursuing you for years after graduation?"

"Freeze said……"

Ji Jialiang glanced imperceptibly at the rearview mirror, as did Cheng Borui. His girlfriend, aware of their secret thoughts, also secretly glanced at the reaction of the person next to her.

But Chen Hongying's eyes lit up, and she pricked up her ears. "What gossip? Isn't Yun Xiaoting with Zhang Bihao? She even pursued you?"

She had absolutely no interest in the opposite sex; she was only interested in her friends' gossip.

"..."

During the ride, they chatted about gossip from their university days, some relationship histories, and the current situations of a few friends. Cheng Borui intentionally or unintentionally mentioned some information about Ji Jialiang. It turns out, back in school, Chen Hongying only knew that this classmate's family was wealthy, but she never imagined they were so powerful. A father who runs a large listed company, a mother who is a Taiwanese businesswoman, and a grandfather who is a military commander… Wow, this kid is amazing.

How can she continue pretending then?
He has the vibe of a male protagonist from a female-oriented novel; he's stolen the spotlight!

She thought that having a successful younger brother would allow her to show off in Jiangcheng and impress her old classmates. But before she could even put on that act, this kid had already outmaneuvered her.

gas!
The car she's sitting in now represents twenty years of her salary, including her housing provident fund. Although she knows Chen Xi has made a name for himself, he's still just an employee, definitely not comparable to a male lead in a female-oriented novel.

Forget it, let him have the limelight this time.

If we find Chen Xi later, I wonder if we can ask him to help us get some autographs from Su Jiu'er, or even better, take a photo with her. She told the students in her class that her younger brother knew Su Jiu'er, but they didn't believe her. She'll slap them in the face when she gets back!

"It's here, it's here."

“Sun Wenle and the others arrived just now. Didn’t they say they had just set off? How come they’re here even faster than us?”

"His company is also close to here."

"A lot of people."

Ji Jialiang parked the car and said, "Now, most tourists who come to Jiangcheng will head to Tianfu Square."

"Jialang, over here!"

Several people got out of the car by the roadside, and one of the girls called out to them. Chen Hongying glanced over and realized, "Oh, it's Yun Xiaoting, the girl we were discussing in the car."

She glanced at Ji Jialiang with a gossipy look on her face. When Ji Jialiang noticed her gaze, he looked at Cheng Borui, who was getting out of the passenger seat, with a headache. Cheng Borui looked at him, then at her, and looked up at the sky, indicating that he knew nothing.

This gathering had a dozen or so people, all of whom were sports students. However, half of them came from very wealthy families, either running businesses or being large landowners. After graduation, they all went back to inherit the throne. Now that they've returned, they all look glamorous and successful. Only Chen Hongying has honestly become a physical education teacher, and her skin is still a healthy tan.

However, Old Chen's family members are more than average in appearance. Even though her skin is a few shades darker, she still looks good. Back in the day, Old Chen was the most beautiful girl in the sports school!
Everyone greeted each other.

"It's been a long time."

"Oh, no, no, who was it again..."

Have you awakened your destiny?

"We've both been in Jiangcheng, but I haven't seen Jialiang since graduation..."

Sun Wenle joked, "What Jialiang? You should call him Chief Ji."

Some classmates joked around, while others didn't seem to be joking. In fact, they often got together in the years after graduation. However, as everyone's lives gradually settled down and they worked for a few years, Chen Hongying felt a little strange every time they got together.

For example, right now, the focus is basically on Ji Jialiang and his few rich kids. Others are also watching them intentionally or unintentionally. It's completely different from the feeling we had when we trained, barbecued, and played around together in school.

Boring!

Go find Wanwan to play.

She arrived at the store, pushed open the door, and said, "Wanwan, I'm here! Come out and greet the customers!"

The girl in the car with Chen Hongying nudged her boyfriend's arm. Just as Cheng Borui was about to say something, Ji Jialiang spoke first: "Everyone must be tired from the journey. Let's go inside and rest for a while. This shop is owned by Hongying's cousin."

"Huh, looks like it's not open yet?"

"They said the renovations were just completed a few days ago."

Sun Wenle hesitated for a moment: "Won't there be a lot of formaldehyde after the renovation?"

Cheng Borui rolled his eyes at this troublesome guy and went inside first, followed by his classmates.
