96: Chapter 96 Without greed, where would shamelessness come from?

After two hours of high-intensity exercise, Chu Yuan was completely unaffected, while she, who hadn't even put in any effort, was exhausted to the point of collapse.

Thinking of that major matter in her heart, Nie Yuqing still forced herself to get up, crawled behind Chu Yuan, and carefully massaged Chu Yuan to relieve the fatigue after the exercise.

"You're being so attentive today; if there's something you need from this young master, just say it straight."

Chu Yuan had long since noticed that Nie Yuqing's behavior today was different from usual.

It was obvious: when someone is overly courteous, they must have a request.

Being called out directly by Chu Yuan, Nie Yuqing felt even more embarrassed. She lowered her head and whispered, "It... it's the thing I mentioned last time, the class reunion."

Chu Yuan seemed to recall that before going to the capital last time, he had promised Nie Yuqing he would attend some reunion.

"When is it?"

"To... tomorrow!"

"That's plenty of time. Keep Big Brother company for a little more exercise."

...

The next morning, Nie Yuqing, who had been worn out to the point of death, held Chu Yuan's small hand with a look of happiness as they boarded the customized Land Rover.

Why was Chu Yuan going to attend some class reunion with Nie Yuqing?

The reason was super simple: someone like Nie Yuqing, with her natural seductive charm, was the easiest type to attract a Protagonist.

Don't forget, she was also the female lead in Zhang Yang's plot.

Going to the reunion with her was the easiest way to run into those Protagonists who loved to act cool and slap faces.

Even if his judgment turned out to be wrong, there would be no loss at all.

Chu Yuan, who had originally intended to go out and relax, didn't mind accompanying Nie Yuqing for a stroll.

Zuo Shishi drove the car, taking Chu Yuan and Nie Yuqing to a hotel.

Hotels located in the downtown area of Magic City were never particularly cheap; it seemed that Nie Yuqing's classmates were doing quite well for themselves.

In the car, Nie Yuqing seemed somewhat excited. This was the first time Chu Yuan had accompanied her to a reunion, a day worth remembering.

Upon arriving at the hotel and parking the car, Nie Yuqing became a bit reserved again.

"I am your boyfriend, shouldn't you be holding my arm?"

Nie Yuqing immediately cast a grateful look and carefully wrapped her arms around Chu Yuan's arm.

"Yuqing, you've finally arrived..."

After Chu Yuan and Nie Yuqing pushed open the door to the private room and entered.

A man dressed in a designer suit, looking quite dapper, immediately came up to greet them with a smile.

This person was none other than Nie Yuqing's former class monitor, Class Monitor Xu Fei, who was also the organizer of this banquet.

However, when he saw that Nie Yuqing was actually holding the arm of this stranger, Chu Yuan, his face immediately turned livid and ugly.

"I heard Nie Yuqing broke up with that loser Zhang Yang. The class monitor wants to use this banquet to confess to our class beauty. We're in for a good show now."

"Who is this guy? He's ridiculously handsome, he's raised the status of our whole group just by being here."

"Nie Yuqing is really blessed to have found a tall, rich, and handsome man so quickly. Why don't I ever get such a chance?"

Upon seeing such a tall, rich, and handsome man, the boys all felt ashamed of their own inferiority, while the girls cast looks as if they wanted to devour him, wishing they could swallow Chu Yuan whole.

"Class Monitor Xu Fei, we aren't that close. Don't call me so intimately in the future, lest my boyfriend misunderstand something."

Boyfriend?

Class Monitor Xu Fei was stunned on the spot. Before he could react, Nie Yuqing introduced him to everyone with a calm expression.

"Let me introduce everyone, this is my boyfriend, Chu Yuan."

When saying the word "boyfriend," Nie Yuqing was incredibly excited, and her arms, which were holding onto Chu Yuan's arm, were slightly trembling.

"Yuqing, when did you find a boyfriend? There wasn't even a whisper of news."

"Exactly, exactly! Where did you find such a handsome boyfriend?"

Several girls who had a good relationship with Nie Yuqing immediately pulled her aside and started gossiping.

"Some people, I don't know what they are thinking. They dumped their boyfriend to chase after a rich second generation, and now they have the nerve to appear in front of everyone so openly. It's truly shameless."

Just as Chu Yuan was about to find a place to sit, a snide, sarcastic voice suddenly rang out.

Looking in the direction of the voice, Chu Yuan smiled.

Two old acquaintances.

Who else could it be but the Protagonist, Zhang Yang, who delivers food?

As for the other one, it seemed to be Zhang Yang's best friend, some guy named Cao Shuwen.

This scrawny little lamb, seeing that he, the great villain, had arrived, didn't find a corner to hide in, but actually dared to jump out and court death.

"Are you jumping out to cause trouble, kid?"

"I just can't stand people like you."

Cao Shuwen retorted tit for tat.

"Can't stand? What can't you stand?"

Chu Yuan smiled playfully: "You can't stand that Nie Yuqing left that loser Zhang Yang to be with this young master?"

Chu Yuan's words left all the classmates present stunned.

Holy crap?

Did he really have to be so direct?

Before they could react, Chu Yuan continued: "If I recall correctly, you took 20 million from me and signed a written agreement that you would hide and avoid this young master and Nie Yuqing in the future."

As he spoke, Chu Yuan took a document out of the system space and slapped it onto the table, his face full of mockery.

"Nie Yuqing broke up with you long ago, but you kept pestering her, using the excuse of borrowing money to treat your mother to constantly borrow money from Nie Yuqing."

"I was impatient with the hassle, so I already gave you 20 million to buy out this matter and had you sign a document to avoid us in the future. Why are you popping up again today?"

A huge scoop!

A shocking scoop!

It was understandable that Nie Yuqing broke up with Zhang Yang.

What era is this? Breakups and reunions are commonplace, and few people would care.

According to what Chu Yuan said, it seemed that after Zhang Yang found out Nie Yuqing had broken up, she had found a tall, rich, and handsome man.

It wasn't clear if it was because of an imbalanced mentality or if he wanted to extort money, but he had actually shamelessly gone to Nie Yuqing to demand money.

They had seen shameless people before, but someone as shameless as Zhang Yang was already rare.

At this moment, everyone's gaze was fixed on Zhang Yang, wanting to hear his explanation.

Zhang Yang had a bitter expression; with so many eyes on him, he didn't dare to meet their gaze.

"What nonsense are you spewing? That 20 million was clearly a trap you set on purpose. After handing over the money to us, you called the police to arrest us. Is there anyone in this world more shameless than you?"

Cao Shuwen stood up to support his best friend.

"So, are you admitting that you took this young master's money?"

Chu Yuan smiled playfully.

Despicable and shameless?

If Zhang Yang really had any backbone, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to be despicable and shameless.

"So Zhang Yang is that kind of person. Nie Yuqing already broke up with him, and he's still pestering her."

"20 million, is this guy worth 20 million?"

"I used to see him acting cool back in school; it turns out he's just someone who wants to live off a woman."

All the classmates were whispering and discussing, verbally attacking Zhang Yang.
