Chapter 406 Class Reunion
Baiyue Hotel.
A five-star hotel.
Although it couldn’t be considered the top in Kyoto, its caliber was certainly not low.
A meal here would generally start at five figures.
Specific private rooms even had a pricey minimum charge.
The opulent lobby and the extravagant private rooms exhibited the essence of wealth everywhere.
"Weiwei, are your classmate gatherings always this lavish? Coming to such a luxurious hotel."
Li Chen glanced around and couldn’t help but shake his head. Find adventures at NovelBin.Côm
Between people, there’s no such thing as equality.
Some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouths, casually spending tens of thousands on a meal, while others, diligent and tireless, can barely make ends meet.
He wasn’t one to resent others for their fortunes; he’d just become more thoughtful the more he saw.
Of course, he wouldn’t feel inferior either.
Though he didn’t come from a prestigious family background and grew up dependent on his grandfather, his grandfather never caused him to endure much hardship, and he’d even taught him medical skills.
Especially as he progressed further with the Tianyuan Manual, he became more and more aware of the extraordinariness of his medical skills.
"Actually, not at all! I don’t know why they chose this place this time."
Chen Weiwei replied with a smile and a shake of her head.
Inside Tianzi No.2 Private Room.
"Weiwei, you’ve finally arrived!"
In the luxurious private room, thirteen or fourteen men and women, the men dapper and the women grandly dressed.
Among them was a man whose eyes hadn’t left Chen Weiwei since she entered the room.
"Weiwei, come, sit here, this is a spot Young Master Zhang reserved especially for you."
A heavily made-up woman stood up, gesturing towards Chen Weiwei.
The Young Master Zhang she mentioned was the very man who had been staring at Chen Weiwei.
Around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, decked out in a suit, he cut the figure of a seasoned professional.
"No need, I’ve come with my boyfriend. We’ll just sit over here."
Chen Weiwei smiled, shook her head, and sat down with Li Chen near the door.
There was a brief silence in the room.
All eyes were now focused directly on Li Chen.
In those looks, there was surprise, shock, disbelief, and even thick envy.
"Weiwei, is he really your boyfriend, not just a shield you found to deal with Zhang Haibo?" a woman with a lovely face and dressed in a light blue dress whispered, tugging at Chen Weiwei’s arm. @@novelbin@@
"Yu Xin, of course he’s real. Li Chen is great, and I really like him," Chen Weiwei said with poise.
There was a collective sigh of disappointment in the room.
Li Chen, sitting aside and not fully understanding the situation, guessed that this Zhang Haibo was probably one of Chen Weiwei’s suitors.
"Young Master Zhang, it looks like your deep affection is going down the drain. Our campus beauty has someone else in her heart, and to think, you’ve been outdone by him, aren’t you feeling a sense of achievement?"
The flamboyant woman said with a laugh, then turned to Chen Weiwei, "Weiwei, won’t you introduce your boyfriend to us? Let everyone get to know him."
Chen Weiwei frowned, clearly perceiving the woman’s ill intent.
Turning her head, she gave Li Chen an apologetic look.
"It’s fine!"
Li Chen chuckled and shook his head, then turned to address everyone, "Li Chen, a doctor at Dragon City Hospital."
"Yo, a doctor, huh! At this age, just a regular doctor, I suppose? How much can you earn in a year?"
"This hotel belongs to Young Master Zhang’s family, and now he’s the general manager of the hotel. He’s been chasing our campus beauty for years without success, and here you are, reaping the benefits, feeling proud?"
Li Chen, aware of the woman stirring the pot, remained unbothered.
"Marriage is predestined by fate. If it’s yours, it won’t escape you. If it’s not, no amount of effort will help," he said with a light smile.
He completely ignored Zhang Haibo’s murderous glare.
The rest of the room, upon hearing that Li Chen was a doctor from Dragon City, lost interest immediately.
In school, they might have been naive, but after being through the wringer in society, they become much more practical.
A regular doctor wasn’t worth networking with.
Some, sensing the tension, stood up and changed the subject, "Hey, how come our class president hasn’t arrived yet? He said he could make it today."
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
Just then, the door to the private room opened and a tall, thin figure entered from outside.
At first glance, Li Chen found him familiar but couldn’t quite place him.
On the other hand, the young man appeared surprised when he saw Li Chen.
"Doctor Li, you’re here too!"
"And you are?"
"Doctor Li, my name is Tang Yunfeng. You treated my grandfather yesterday; I met you..."
At that point, Li Chen realized why the face seemed familiar; it was one of the two young men who had been with Tang Hao when he treated Tang Qiang.
He had only glanced at them briefly before sending them out of the room.
Unexpectedly, he ran into them again today.
Seeing Li Chen, the man who had saved his grandfather’s life, Tang Yunfeng was visibly excited and pulled over a chair, ready to sit down next to him.
"Class president, your seat is over there," said the heavily made-up woman, somewhat taken aback.
How could this minor doctor know someone like Tang Yunfeng?
"No need, I’ll sit next to Doctor Li," Tang Yunfeng said, waving his hand, and he started making conversation with Li Chen and Chen Weiwei.
This development stunned the onlookers.
All of the classmates knew that their class president had a significant background, power, and wealth.
But now, seeing his excited demeanor, it seemed as if something was off.
