Sneers and Sarcasm
"Well... Ye Fan, I'm leaving now. You can take a taxi here later. ♟👌 👺👤" Lin Jia said, then opened the car door, got into Liu Yunzhi's car, and drove away.
Seeing this, Qian Ye swiftly moved and sat in the back seat.
This is nothing out of the ordinary.
People change, especially people's hearts.
Therefore, the fact that Lin Jia abandoned Ye Fan was already known from the plot of the original book.
Lin Jia had originally invited Ye Fan to the class reunion, but halfway there, she left him behind.
Ye Fan watched the Toyota into the distance, shook his head, and returned to his Mercedes-Benz.
Lin Jia could have gotten into Ye Fan's Mercedes-Benz, but she opted for Liu Yunzhi's Toyota instead. This was mainly because she didn't believe Ye Fan lacked the means. She only knew that Liu Yunzhi had started his own company, was already well-known and doing very well, and had already bought his own Toyota.
Naturally, Liu Yunzhi assumed that Ye Fan was nothing special, just an ordinary person waiting for a taxi on the roadside, just as Liu Yunzhi had guessed.
Ye Fan opened the car door and was about to get in when he saw his self-proclaimed distant cousin sitting in the back. "Aren't you driving?"
"You actually thought of having your cousin be your driver?" Qian Ye teased.
"Alright!" Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief, finally the steering wheel was back in his hands. He thought to himself, could he really be some distant relative of his, or was he just trying to steal his car? Otherwise, why would he give the steering wheel back to him instead of quietly driving away after he got out to see Lin Jia?
Qian Ye was certainly not his distant cousin; he was just giving himself a plausible identity.
Puff puff puff~
Hmm~
Ye Fan accelerated, and the car sped forward. ♘🐺 ඏ🐉
"Xiao Fanfan, you did a good job of showing off," Qian Ye suddenly laughed.
"When did I ever show off?" Ye Fan said irritably.
"You arrived in Mercedes-Benz, yet you made no sound and let Lin Jia be picked up by Liu Yunzhi in Toyota. Isn't that just showing off and slapping someone in the face?"
"I just didn't have a chance to say anything before Lin Jia got into Liu Yunzhi's car. What could I say?" Ye Fan said helplessly.
Qian Ye smiled without saying a word.
Then, Ye Fan drove to the entrance of the Bright Moon City on the Sea, parked on one side of the square, and got out of the car.
Qian Ye also got out of the car and walked with Liu Yunzhi to the entrance of the Bright Moon City on the Sea.
Liu Yunzhi had to go pick someone up, so he left first and hadn't arrived yet.
The others arrived and went to the private room at the restaurant.
"Are you going too?" Ye Fan asked Qian Ye.
Qian Ye looked at him expressionlessly. "I'm your cousin, not some stranger. Aren't you welcome me? You should be secretly happy!"
Ye Fan: "..."
"Alright then!" Ye Fan had no choice but to walk forward. Actually, he wanted to tell Qian Ye that the meal at this class reunion wasn't so great, but he held back the words. He also wanted to punish Qian Ye for the fright he had given him earlier and for grabbing the steering wheel.
Hearing Ye Fan's thoughts, Qian Ye smiled without saying a word, thinking to herself, with her strength, even if the food isn't good, it's him who's going to have a bad time. They don't have the ability to make her food unpleasant. 🐳✋ Claws 🎈👮
As soon as the two entered the hall, Liu Yunzhi, Lin Jia, and a few other people walked in.
Lin Jia and Liu Yunzhi were both surprised; how did Ye Fan arrive?
Liu Yunzhi believed that if Ye Fan couldn't hail a taxi right away, he wouldn't be able to come anytime soon.
He might not be able to come after the party.
But they arrived first, leaving Liu Yunzhi feeling frustrated.
"Ye Fan, who is this?" Lin Jia immediately noticed Qian Ye next to Ye Fan and, sensing a connection, asked curiously.
Ye Fan glanced at him. "Oh... a distant relative, kind of like a cousin! We met him on the way, and he's also coming to join our gathering."
Lin Jia nodded, and seeing that Qian Ye was just as plain-looking as Ye Fan, she didn't pay him any mind.
When Qian Ye transmigrated, he had already changed his appearance, so he was just average-looking and naturally couldn't attract the girls' attention.
Qian Ye naturally noticed the disdain in Lin Jia's eyes, but didn't take it to heart.
A proud school beauty like Lin Jia, a "goddess" in people's eyes, how could an ordinary person possibly attract her attention?
"Heh, another freeloader." Finally getting his chance, Liu Yunzhi immediately mocked Ye Fan.
It also subtly mocked Qian Ye.
Ye Fan's expression changed, but seeing Lin Jia and the others around, he held back his temper. If it were just him, he wouldn't be so angry at Liu Yunzhi's mockery. But with Qian Ye there, being mocked by Liu Yunzhi became his problem, so naturally he got angry.
Qian Ye patted Ye Fan on the shoulder, telling him to calm down.
If Liu Yunzhi had mocked Ye Fan, that would have been fine. But since he mocked Ye Fan for freeloading, then he was in the wrong.
Then, the group entered the private room.
A few more people arrived.
So everyone arrived. Out of the thirty-three students in the class, only twenty-five showed up; the others had gone abroad to study.
People like Li Xiaoman studied abroad and could only return after climbing Mount Tai.
Then we set up several tables and started eating.
Qian Ye sat at a table with Liu Yunzhi, Lin Jia, Wang Yan, and a few others.
The group ate and chatted.
Ye Fan was originally at a table with Liu Yunzhi and the others, but he had nothing to talk about with them, so he went to another table and sat down.
Qian Ye didn't look at him, nor did she leave the table, nor did she say anything; she simply continued eating by herself.
Then everyone started eating and drinking, toasting.
Suddenly, a male classmate looked at Qian Ye, picked up his glass, and said to him, "Who is that classmate? I don't think I recognize him."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yunzhi glanced at Qian Ye and said sarcastically, "He's not our classmate at all; Ye Fan brought him here to freeload."
As soon as he said this, everyone at the table looked at Qian Ye. Ye Fan was sitting at another table, looked gloomy after hearing Liu Yunzhi's words. He really wanted to punch him, but he held back in front of so many classmates.
"Oh, his name is Qian Ye, he's Ye Fan's cousin," Lin Jia suddenly explained.
cousin?
Everyone laughed, including the male student, who then withdrew his outstretched cup.
Qian Ye wasn't angry at the man's actions. Instead, he picked up his glass and took a sip. "This... what kind of wine is this? It's so cheap, I can't even drink it."
"And who ordered these dishes? They have no taste whatsoever, probably can't afford them?"
As soon as he said this, the entire room fell silent, and all eyes turned to him.
In fact, Qian Ye knew that Liu Yunzhi had ordered the private room, including the drinks and food; he was just saying this to annoy him.
Upon hearing Qian Ye's words and glancing at the crowd, Liu Yunzhi became furious. He was about to explode in anger, but then something occurred to him, and he looked at Qian Ye with ill intent. "Ye Fan's cousin, right? Your skin is even thicker than Ye Fan's. Birds of a feather flock together."
"Shameless is one thing, freeloading here with Ye Fan is another, but to be so picky is quite another. You really have a lot of face!"
As soon as he said this, everyone turned their attention to Ye Fan, to see how he would handle the situation.
At this moment, Ye Fan couldn't sit still any longer. Feeling there was no need to continue at this class reunion, he immediately stood up and walked towards Qian Ye, glaring at Liu Yunzhi: "Cousin Qian Ye, let's go!"
"You should have left long ago," Liu Yunzhi said provocatively.
Qian Ye just smiled, immediately stood up and picked up Ye Fan like a chick, then pressed him down into the empty seat on his right. "Where are you going? Your cousin hasn't had enough to eat yet, where are you going?"
"You!" Ye Fan struggled a few times, but couldn't break free from his grasp; he was held firmly by one hand. Puzzled, he realized he was quite strong and had even practiced some martial arts, yet he was no match for the strength of one of the man's hands. He could only sit quietly, sulking, truly regretting bringing him along. He should have refused to let him go upstairs!
