Although David is not a so-called successful person, due to some reasons and experiences, he now has some savings.
Not long ago, he happened to buy a Porsche, which is higher in price than Liu Yunzhi's Toyota car. However, if it is used to judge his social ladder, he feels rather vulgar.
More than 10 minutes later, David drove to the gathering place sea moon city. THIS IS A COLLECTION OF DINING AND LEISURE AS ONE OF THE super entertainment cities, located in the golden zone, the surrounding is very prosperous, and from the parking lot, various high-end cars can be seen as the main body of consumption.
Just graduated from the university three years, and most of the students have not successful careers, David felt that the choice of such a gathering place is somewhat extravagant. When he stepped out of the parking lot into the front of the Sea Moon City, he soon saw several familiar figures, all of them classmates who had come to the party, some of whom he had not seen for three years.
"David !"
At this time a handsome and gentle young man found him, with a smile on his face to meet over, and said: "It is your wrong, as the landlord of the city but delayed to show up, you should be to initiate and organize this party."
The gentle-looking young man, Wang Ziwen, one of the organizers and initiators of the party, was a very active figure in college. It is said that in the past three years, he has developed very smoothly in another city and has become quite wealthy.
Several other people came to meet him, and although they had not seen each other for a long time, everyone was very enthusiastic. It is obvious that Wang Ziwen is waiting for people here, he can stand in front of the Sea Moon City especially to meet only so limited two or three people, it is easy to guess.
Wang Ziwen is a wise man, and did not continue to stay here alone, but talking and laughing while leading the way , accompanying the classmates into the Sea Moon City. On the fifth floor, a small business centre for thirty to fifty people for meetings has been taken over.
It was now dark outside, and almost all the classmates who had come to the party were present.
The arrival of a few classmates immediately let the atmosphere of the scene a burst of excitement, many people welcomed over, can gather together again a kind of time goes by, the feeling of spatial dislocation, in a trance, coincided with certain scenes from college.
It has been three years since graduation. All are already 25 or 26 years old, a few people have been married, more two people when a little mother. Everyone has their own different life trajectory, but generally speaking, most of the classmates are ordinary people, the ideals and aspirations of the past have been polished by time to completely disappear, In the nothing special life to become ordinary.
The dream has gone, and the vast majority of people are awake to realize that they are just ordinary people. David is taken to another side by Wang Ziwen, careful observation discovers, the classmate here is either that kind of career success or a person of some socioeconomic family background.
"David, you come so late, must punish you to drink three cups of wine."
"Three cups too little, you also really underestimate David's drinking capacity." Catherine also sat here, eye oblique glance, slender figure, curve graceful, erogenous.
"Which beauty wants to punish me?" David delimits a few male classmates equally in beauty ranks.
Just came to take advantage of us, punishment must punish you !" a group of men and women consistent speak, beginning to" sharpen the sword of Goliath the Philistine. ".
"I thought you'd have to wait a while for a taxi," said Liu Yunzhi, who has a certain of social economy background in the city and is naturally in the small group. There was a slight pause at this remark.
The person at the scene knows there is ,it seems,some historic enmity between David and Liu Yunzhi during the period of university ,his personal career is progressing well in the city now, however , at the moment inadvertently pointed out that David had come here by taxi,the meaning of the words is a little obvious .
The other classmates also noticed the unusual situation and looked this way ,but David just smiled unconcerned and said nothing .
"I'm going to meet Zhou Yi outside." Wang Ziwen changed the subject and turned to leave.
Catherine and two other female classmates discussed cosmetics, and then designer clothes.The others also discussed some funny old stories from their college days.
As soon as the brief lull had passed, the scene became lively again. However, after what happened, the atmosphere was more or less subtle. No one mentioned the topic of punishing David again, while the topic of Liu Yunzhi was more and more.
Although David was a man of great influence in college, all disputes are not important. After graduating from campus, most people now pay attention to whether a person is career successful or not.
From time to time, many people from all around glanced at him in a hurry, which seemed to be a special circle of social elites. All the classmates present here are people who are doing well in their personal careers, but at the moment, David has a tendency to be marginalized. However, David finally got up and left the small circle and sat down with some other classmates. He did not want to be marked as a special group by other classmates.
Cosmetics and brand-name clothes are always the favourite topics of females, while male classmates talk about a wide range of topics from football to news and current affairs. Half an hour later, twenty-five people had arrived for the party. There were thirty-three people in the whole class, three of whom are studying abroad, while the other five can't arrive for some special reasons. Several initiators and organizers of this party made speeches separately, the atmosphere is very warm, and then the people were unconsciously divided into several small circles, each chatting. It was a long time before everyone left the small business centre to toast the reunion. Did not undertake deliberate arrangement, the social rank of each table and affinity are revealed come out. David did not sit with the small group of Catherine and Liu Yunzhi, but naturally sat at another table.
After another speech, then it is very casual, some people toast between the various tables, but also some people were surrounded in front of the table, it is difficult to move a step, repeatedly toasted. A lot has happened in three years and everyone has changed a lot.
Perhaps because of the alcohol stimulation, many students have talked about their lives, some are proud and others are frustrated. Some people hate it when their boss is so demanding that they always ask for work overtime and get paid so little. One female classmate said her boyfriend was a department manager of a famous company, another said her husband had been promoted to vice president of the company, and another said her fiancee was the niece of a bank executive.
And more people are silent after listening, and many people's life is not very satisfactory. Some people said that she married a man who did not love her, and she was not happy after marriage. Her husband drank too much all the time. When some classmates passed by her city to visit her, they saw bruises on her body.
"If you need any help, you can come to me." David has compassion for this gaunt female classmate. he still remembers her shy and plain appearance in college, and standing outside the football field waving hands to cheer for him.
See ...her life is really very unhappy, she melancholy and gratefully nodded, and whispered :"thank you."
"David, you still change yourself first." The female classmate said, whose husband had been promoted to vice president of the company, under the influence of alcohol, said brusquely: "you see how smoothly Liu Yunzhi is developing now." The CLASSMATES AT THIS TABLE ALL LOOKED AT David, at the same time, and then looked at the table where Liu Yunzhi was located not far away, where are now career successful people.
"David, in the university you are quite a character, but out of the campus everything has changed, do not work hard."
At this table, the male classmate who said his fiancee was the niece of a bank executive was also haranguing. When it comes to the people at Liu Yunzhi's table,
some classmates sighed helplessly, saying that there were some people who were far worse than they were on campus, but now they can't compare themselves. And then some are cynical, very extreme, and talk about people who successfully return home in luxury and show off their wealth.
More female classmates made fun of David and said thanks for going to school at that time and just secretly loved him, but now some regret in those days rejected Liu Yunzhi's pursuit. Or the original city, or the original people, but again together after the mental state of the people is very different.
