As the class reunion approached, a sense of apprehension grew on Xiao Luo, and the truth was he wasn't really looking forward to it. From his perspective, those who genuinely wished to gather and reconnect with each other were few, and the majority were just keen to let others know about their accomplishments. For some others, it was just a convenient way to explore the likelihood of networking and looking for new opportunities that could be exploited later on. That, in his mind, was what a reunion represented.
A survey was once conducted online regarding reunions. The data showed that people taking the initiative to propose and organize reunions were usually those who had attained a measure of success among their peers or in their community.
Xiao Luo decided not to give it further thought. Since he had nothing else to do, he would attend the reunion anyway.
