The class monitor tried to persuade him, and other classmates also tried to persuade him. Wei Xiaoyang knew that continuing the stalemate would only make things worse, so he went along with it, saying, "Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted to Duan Xu. Since that's the case, a drink is fine too."

Duan Xu him say that, Duan Xu was still angry, but he didn't know what to say. After all, it was a class reunion, and there was no need to make things so tense.

Shen Yanlang glanced at Wei Xiaoyang, a smug smile playing on his lips, and then personally poured Duan Xu a drink.

They then shared a drink together, surrounded by onlookers.

The class monitor breathed a sigh of relief and called out, "Hey everyone, continue! There's still plenty of food on the table, don't waste it."

With that, he returned to his seat.

Zhang Hui glanced at Wei Xiaoyang and left first.

Before leaving, Wei Xiaoyang stared at Shen Yanlang and muttered mockingly, "Coward!"

Damn it! How dare you insult my boyfriend?!

This infuriated Duan Xu. He had already sat down, then abruptly stood up, "You...!"

Duan Xu was about to curse, Shen Yanlang, grabbed the back of his head, and kissed him.

"Holy crap!"

"Wow--"

"Yo~~"

Upon seeing this, the crowd cheered and whistled.

Duan Xu was caught off guard by Shen Yanlang's actions and was gently kissed. Hearing the cheers from the crowd, he felt embarrassed and struggled slightly.

Unfortunately, Shen Yanlang strong, and he couldn't break free. Moreover, Shen Yanlang was mentally reassuring him.

[Xuxu, don't be impulsive.]

He did it on purpose.

Upon hearing this, Duan Xu stopped moving, obediently accepting the kiss, and continued listening to Shen Yanlang speak.

[Either to provoke me, or to get your attention.]

[Xuxu, don't fall for it, don't give him a chance.]

[I've made a note of this. Leave it to me to handle, okay?]

Duan Xu hummed in agreement, and Shen Yanlang released Duan Xu.

Sun Yao and her friends, their faces flushed with excitement, nearly fainted and let out soft screams. "Ah...

The others were similar, except for Wei Xiaoyang, whose face was terribly gloomy.

He snorted coldly, his gaze fixed on Shen Yanlang and Duan Xu, then smashed the wine glass with a "crack".

This commotion was quite significant. Everyone snapped out of their excitement and looked at Wei Xiaoyang. Seeing his expression, they basically understood what had happened, but no one discussed it further, pretending not to know.

The squad leader looked at the broken wine glass but didn't say anything. He just silently called the waiter over and cleaned up the shards.

Duan Xu glanced at everyone, his cheeks slightly flushed, and pulled Shen Yanlang to sit down. He was no longer in the mood to care about Wei Xiaoyang; all he wanted to do at this moment was to keep a low profile.

Obviously, that's impossible; we've already been high-profile enough.

"Xuxu!" Sun Yao said, barely containing her excitement, "I didn't expect you to be so wild."

Duan Xu: "..."

No, let me explain, I'm not wild, really!

However, Sun Yao didn't understand his look and turned back to continue her excited conversation with her friends after speaking.

Duan Xu had no choice but to glance at his classmates at the table every now and then, his eyes blatantly saying: Give me another kiss!

Duan Xu felt very uncomfortable being stared at. He kicked Shen Yanlang under the table and whispered, "Couldn't you have found a different way to stop me? I feel like we're monkeys in a zoo."

Shen Yanlang chuckled softly, "My mistake, I'll be more careful next time."

Duan Xu gave a small hum, forgiving Shen Yanlang's antics, and then continued eating with him affectionately, occasionally replying to Sun Yao.

Around nine o'clock, the meal was almost over, and everyone walked out of the private room in small groups. But they said they weren't satisfied and wanted to go for a barbecue to continue the fun.

Shen Yanlang and Duan Xu naturally weren't going; they were going back to City A tomorrow morning.

Duan Xu told the class monitor, "We won't go; we have things to do tomorrow."

"Oh, I see. Okay then." The class monitor didn't insist.

Sun Yao walked over and, seeing him about to leave, felt reluctant to part with him. "Xuxu, I don't know when we'll see each other again. Sigh, I wish I could go to university in City A too."

Sun Yao took the exam far away, directly outside the province, and only comes back during winter and summer vacations.

"It's the same if we make plans during winter or summer vacation," Duan Xu said.

Sun Yao nodded, glanced at Shen Yanlang, and chuckled, "You two better take good care of yourselves. Your old mother is watching you."

Duan Xu: "..."

"By the way, how are you getting back? Are you taking a taxi? Or should I come?" The class monitor asked them after seeing off a few classmates who were also going home.

"No need, someone will come to pick me up," Shen Yanlang refused.

The class monitor said "Oh," and added, "Okay, let us know in the group chat when you get home!"

"Okay," Duan Xu nodded in response.

The class monitor followed the rest of the group who were going to continue the party and left first.

Sun Yao was also going back, so Duan Xu said, "I'll take you; you're too lazy to take a taxi."

"Oh? That's so inconvenient!" Sun Yao actually thought to herself; she hadn't had enough of kowtowing yet.

Duan Xu turned to look at Shen Yanlang, "Is it convenient?"

"It's convenient." Although Shen Yanlang was jealous of their close relationship, he knew they were just friends, and it was something he should help with.

Duan Xu then turned his head and smiled, "Look, it's convenient, let us deliver it. The driver will be driving anyway."

"A driver?" Sun Yao exclaimed in surprise, "You have a driver?"

He knew Duan Xu family, but he hadn't heard that they hired a driver.

"Yan-ge's family," Duan Xu.

Sun Yao immediately understood, and then sincerely thanked him, "Thank you Xuxu's boyfriend, thank you so much."

"You're welcome." Shen Yanlang nodded slightly.

A short while later, the driver arrived at the restaurant entrance in the Shen Family's Bentley. The students who were waiting for the car all saw it and initially had no idea that it was there to pick up Duan Xu and the others.

Even after Shen Yanlang and Duan Xu walked over, Duan Xu was still waving at Sun Yao: "Come here, you can sit in the passenger seat."

Sun Yao was stunned. Bentley! That's not something an ordinary person can afford.

"Oh, oh, it's here." Sun Yao snapped out of her daze, walked over shakily, opened the car door, carefully got in, and then carefully closed the door, as if afraid of damaging or scratching it.

Shen Yanlang opened the car door for Duan Xu, letting him go in first before going in himself. Before entering, he glanced at Wei Xiaoyang standing to the side and gave him a mocking look.

The car drove away, and the students finally couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"Duan Xu's boyfriend seems to be very rich?"

"It's not just a 'seem,' it's clearly Bentley, and even those with money generally can't afford one."

"Tsk tsk, Duan Xu's family isn't bad off, but her boyfriend's family is the real high society, isn't it?"

Wei Xiaoyang's face darkened completely. He could tell that Shen Yanlang's family background was not simple, but he did not expect it to be beyond his expectations.

His family also owns a Bentley, but it's the most expensive car in the family and his father's most prized possession. His father only drives the Bentley when he goes out to meet important clients.

The fact that Shen Yanlang could casually purchase Bentley shows just how wealthy his family is.
