Chapter 528 500: The Big Fool
He Qianqian's face flushed, and she pinched He Jing, whispering angrily, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by brother complex? I like him, not his age. You little minx must be crazy for men, thinking dirty thoughts all day long."
"Oh, so it's not Lin Tian's age you're interested in. Then I know what you like about him. I just felt it for a second, and I think Lin Tian's chest muscles are quite big. He must have at least eight packs of abs, right? Do they feel nice when you touch them?" He Jing asked.
"Little minx, shut up." He Qianqian's face turned even redder, and she stormed off towards the house, leaving He Jing behind.
He Jing watched He Qianqian's retreating back with a giggly smile, absolutely delighted.
The two girls chattered about the past year's happenings, while Lin Tian stood by, unable to get a word in.
Later, He Jing suggested that, since He Qianqian had come back after such a long time, it would be good to gather a few close high school classmates. Actually, He Jing mainly wanted to show Lin Tian off to her high school friends. Initially, He Qianqian refused, but eventually, she couldn't withstand He Jing's persistence and reluctantly agreed.
The classmates' gathering was scheduled for seven in the evening at a bar.
At six, He Qianqian and Lin Tian left. He Qianqian wore a white dress that was neat and tidy, making her appear extremely elegant and beautiful.
Lin Tian, on the other hand, was quite casual in a shirt and jeans. He generally didn't care much about his clothing as long as it wasn't revealing or too ugly.
The two took a taxi to the bar.
By six fifty, they arrived at the bar.
This time, He Jing had invited more than a dozen people, including some pursuing PhDs, others working in Fortune 500 companies, and a few entrepreneurs; all fairly successful individuals.
Most of them had already arrived, making Lin Tian and He Qianqian some of the last to show up.
He Qianqian entered the private room first, and the sight of her in the snowy white dress and stunningly beautiful face nearly blinded everyone there.
"Here comes He, the great beauty!"
"He, the class beauty, come sit over here!"
"Qianqian, you look really pretty today."
"So sexy, perfect!"
..., ...
Being beautiful makes one popular everywhere, not for anything else, but simply because of beauty. "I'm beautiful, I'm capricious."
Men adored, women envied.
Almost all the men automatically made space next to them, gesturing for He Qianqian to sit there.
He Qianqian glanced back with a smile, and all of them seemed intoxicated. Then, Lin Tian walked in.
As soon as Lin Tian appeared, people around started whispering.
"Who is he? Is he also from our class? I don't seem to remember."
Clearly, when He Jing had invited everyone, she hadn't mentioned Lin Tian.
A bit shyly, He Qianqian introduced him, "This is my boyfriend, Lin Tian."
"Hello everyone, I'm Lin Tian," Lin Tian waved to everyone.
Normally, everyone would have greeted Lin Tian back, but today, there seemed to be an exception.
All the female classmates stared at Lin Tian with a strange look, as if trying to strip him bare to see what was so special about him that he could become He Qianqian's boyfriend.
However, after looking for a while, aside from Lin Tian looking quite young, they couldn't find anything particularly special about him.
All the male classmates were even more visibly irate, almost wishing they could gang up on him and knock Lin Tian out.
They gritted their teeth, their faces showing ferocity, as if to say, "Scumbag, give our Qianqian back to us."
Lin Tian was accustomed to these kinds of looks; after all, marrying a beautiful woman was bound to provoke others' envy, jealousy, and hatred.
In the awkward moment, He Jing came running out with a giggly smile, seemingly aiming for this effect.
Such a professional troublemaker!
An absolutely perfect bad friend!
Speaking like a host, He Jing said seriously,
"Today, I want to make a grand announcement. My cousin, the goddess in your hearts, He Qianqian, the great beauty, is now taken. So, all the men here, especially the single guys, take note. Don't think about hitting on our great beauty He anymore. Be careful not to lose your composure later."
"No, we won't...!" the men quickly responded, pretending to be indifferent, but inside, their hearts were bleeding.
"Such good actors," He Jing scorned them. "If I hadn't mentioned Qianqian was coming today, would you have shown up? How many times have you attended the previous gatherings? Really good at pretending, so coy!"
"Cough, cough, here, let me toast you, and you toast me!" The men started drinking to ease their awkwardness.
He Qianqian sat down next to He Jing, and Lin Tian took a seat next to He Qianqian.
While everyone was somewhat displeased by He Qianqian having a boyfriend, they were jealous for only a moment before quickly getting back into the normal reunion mode.
The men began to brag.
"Dongzi, do you still remember the time we had a test, how I put in all my effort, as if I were weaning off milk, to pass you a note, and then you did the same to pass it back to me, and it had four big characters on it saying 'I don't know either.'"
"Hahaha… At that time, I felt so silly. If you don't know, you just don't know, yet I still had to pass it to you."
…, ….
"That year we got caught talking in the dorm, and afterward, it was you, Monkey, you took it all on your own, letting the teacher punish you to run ten laps around the track. By the end, you were tired as a dog, Monkey, you really had loyalty."
"Hahaha…, don't mention it. Back then, even if the teacher had me run a hundred laps, I wouldn't have ratted you guys out. That's just how loyal Monkey is."
…, ….
"Hey, do you remember that big dumb guy from our class; the dumb class president?"
"How could I forget? That guy was really something; he was fierce too. Once, I called him dumb and he threw a punch at me, nearly killed me."
"I didn't pamper him. That year he punched me, I knew I couldn't beat him, so at night, I smeared toothpaste on the soles of his feet. The next day, that dumb lout went to the bathroom six times within one hour."
"Hahaha…, heard he even wanted to chase after He Dabeauty."
"Isn't that a dream? If he could get He Dabeauty, Ma Rong would have to kick Wang Bao out and come to me."
…, ….
Everyone chatted very happily, and Lin Tian felt a bit envious. He really missed those brutes from his dormitory. If they were here, he wouldn't be here doing nothing.
The men mostly boasted, but the topics among the women got a bit too… too much….
"Hey, do you guys know? The little fox from our class married a tycoon, and that tycoon is already forty years old. My, my, I really don't know what she was thinking, marrying someone that old, with parts that don't even work anymore."
"Exactly, but that's just what she's like, otherwise, why would anyone nickname her Little Fox!"
…, ….
"Xiaomei, you really live up to the name Chen Xiaomei; you're becoming more and more beautiful. Heard you married an athlete, an athlete who even won a provincial champion. An athlete has such a good build, full of vigor. Look how flourishing our Xiaomei is, getting sassier!"
"Oh my, big sis, what are you saying? You're never serious. If you keep being this frivolous, your chest will forever fail to reach C, not just fail to reach C, but might even shrink to an A."
"Xiaomei, haven't seen you in years and now you dare to sass me? Who are you calling flat-chested? Feel here, what's flat?"
"It's flat, it will never grow!"
…, ….
"Xiaowen, heard you married an IT elite, a middle manager in the company earning twenty thousand a month, I'm so jealous!"
"Jealous of what crap! He's a science guy, with an IQ of a hundred but zero EQ. All he knows is make money, make money, not a bit of romance. I'm actually envious of Xiaomei. Then looking at my own, doesn't get hints, finishes in seconds. Once, I bought a sexy lingerie for him, he called me shameless for buying such a revealing outfit, I was so mad I almost scratched him to death."
"Hahaha…!"
…, ….
The conversation was lively, with He Qianqian joining in too; Lin Tian could only drink alone, poor thing.
After a while, someone asked, "He Jing, looks like we're all here; shall we start playing games?"
"Sure, what are we playing today?" He Jing, scratching her head, shouted out.
Right then, the room's door suddenly swung open as if someone had kicked it.
"What a fragrance!"
A girl with an especially sensitive nose rhapsodized.
Then, a bouquet of ninety-nine roses appeared before everyone, held by a very tall and robust man, standing over six feet three inches tall.
"The big dumb guy!"
One of the men shouted.
"Class president, it's really you! You disappeared right after graduation, and we hadn't heard from you in all these years, where have you been gallivanting off to?"
The big dumb guy ignored everyone, standardly held the ninety-nine roses, and walked towards He Qianqian romantically and tenderly, step by step, irresistible.
Everyone was stunned, now they knew the big dumb guy's intention, he was going to confess to He Qianqian!
Confessing to He Qianqian was a normal thing; during their high school years, countless had confessed to her, but she had rejected, rejected, and rejected them again, until it became so that whenever someone confessed to her, everyone else would cheer them on, admiring their courage.
But today was not normal. Why confess today, here of all places? After all, Lin Tian was here, and he is He Qianqian's official boyfriend now!
Confessing in front of her boyfriend, probably only the big dumb guy could pull off something like this. The nickname big dumb guy suits him too well, very fitting to reality.
Onlookers were also nervous, really worried that Lin Tian and the big dumb guy would start fighting. It was supposed to be a happy class reunion, and if they really fought, it would not look good for anyone.
He Qianqian was also stunned, looking helplessly at the big dumb guy, but Lin Tian was extremely pleased. He had been worried about having nothing to do, and now, he finally had something to do and no longer needed to drink sullenly by himself.
What do you think?
