Soon, the two of them arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel.
Before they even entered, there were people standing at the door. As soon as they saw Bai Yiran and Jiang Jiu, they immediately came forward, "The two beauties are finally here, hurry, hurry, everyone has arrived!"
This high school reunion attracted quite a number of people. Because everyone had been divided into different classes and streams such as the arts and sciences in high school, everyone knew each other to varying extents, so they simply invited both acquaintances and strangers alike.
However, after five or six years of not seeing each other, everyone had changed dramatically.
The women were all dolled up, and at first glance, their names were almost unrecognizable.
The men were mostly dressed in suits and ties, looking bright and shiny, like top-tier executives.
However, among them were quite a few who looked as if they were six or seven months pregnant, and even their hairlines seemed rather precarious.
Bai Yiran was flabbergasted, "Are they eating pig feed or what?"
Jiang Jiu dragged her to sit down, "Time always changes a person, some who were ugly before are just getting uglier with time."
Bai Yiran nodded, "Well summarized."
Zhao Qinghe came over, looked at Bai Yiran with a smile, and said, "You finally made it, quite a change, huh."
Bai Yiran somewhat affectedly twirled her hair, smiling shyly, "Right, has everyone arrived? I even added Nie Wen's contact info last time."
Zhao Qinghe pointed to Nie Wen, who was drinking not far away, "He's right there!"
Bai Yiran was stunned, her smile almost cracking on her face!
It was bad enough she had added the contact of her crush from back then, thinking he'd look just as dashing as before, but alas, how times change.
Zhao Qinghe obviously saw Jiang Jiu as well and smiled slightly, "Jiang Jiu, long time no see, you're just as beautiful as always."
"Thank you."
"What would you like to drink? I'll get it for you."
"Orange juice, please. Thanks."
After Zhao Qinghe left, Bai Yiran could not hold back any longer and sat on the chair with a forlorn face, "If I have committed a crime, let the cops arrest me, rather than being deceived daily by photo scams!"
Jiang Jiu couldn't help but laugh. The former heartthrob was now just one of those potbellied men, and Bai Yiran's mentality had crumbled.
Zhao Qinghe brought over two glasses of orange juice and handed them to them.
Bai Yiran raised her glass of orange juice, feeling sentimental, "Here's to our youth that has inevitably slipped away!"
"Hey, isn't that Jiang Jiu? Long time no see."
Jiang Jiu looked up at the woman in front of her and hesitated for a moment, wondering when such a person had appeared in her class.
"You are?"
Gan Xiuxiu was slightly miffed internally, but still smiled, "I'm Gan Xiuxiu, I heard you're currently working at a magazine and must meet lots of nobility and rich people, right? Are you also expected to dine and chat with them? No wonder the importance makes you forgetful."
Gan Xiuxiu's words were clearly a jab at Jiang Jiu.
"Don't say she can't recognize you, even your mom wouldn't recognize you after all that plastic surgery, right?"
Bai Yiran now had no reservations, where was she willing to play the demure and fresh ingenue? She straight up went full on in her true cool sister style.
"I said you should've contacted me if you wanted plastic surgery, my family owns a cosmetic hospital, definitely more legit than those shady clinics out there. Look at those cheeks, they stiffen when you laugh, as if you're afraid nobody would notice you've been injected."
Gan Xiuxiu was furious, "Bai Yiran, you're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
Bai Yiran nodded, "Yes, I am. Any problems with that?"
Gan Xiuxiu bit her lip in anger and turned to leave. Meanwhile, Bai Yiran was also saying with a smile, "Class leader, you go ahead and get busy, we can manage ourselves."
Zhao Qinghe nodded and went to attend to others.
Bai Yiran raised an eyebrow to Jiang Jiu, "I've sorted this out for you, how will you thank me?"
Jiang Jiu didn't even have to think, "Multigrain pancakes in the old town district tomorrow."
Bai Yiran held up two fingers, "I want double eggs!"
"Done!"
