148: Chapter 148 Zou Guodong, having reached his limit, confronts Luo Wei.
Arriving at the Dihao Hotel.
Luo Wei parked the car and took the elevator upstairs.
Upon reaching the floor, he activated his Eye of Thoroughness to look into the private room.
He could see clearly exactly who was inside the room.
At a glance, he spotted Song Yiqing.
Song Yiqing truly lived up to her title as the Department Flower.
After not seeing her for a few years, she had grown even more beautiful and feminine!
Luo Wei glanced at the other classmates sitting in the room and couldn't help but chuckle.
This gathering was likely organized by Zou Guodong at Song Yiqing's request.
The other classmates were all invited by Zou Guodong based on his own preferences.
The people he chose to invite completely exposed his hidden motives!
Luo Wei strode toward the private room.
At this moment, the room was very lively.
Lin Fei, who was dressed up for the occasion, hadn't expected Song Yiqing to attend the gathering.
Song Yiqing was indeed the goddess in the eyes of the boys; even though she was wearing casual clothes, she still completely outshone Lin Fei!
Everyone's gaze was drawn to Song Yiqing, which made Lin Fei feel quite uncomfortable.
However, the scenes that would truly make her suffer were still to come!
The sound of knocking echoed at that moment.
Everyone looked toward the door in unison, wanting to see who had arrived.
Luo Wei pushed the door open and made a grand entrance.
Upon seeing him appear,
the previously bustling room instantly fell silent.
"Oho?" Luo Wei stood at the door and shrugged dejectedly. "It seems everyone doesn't quite welcome me. In that case, I'll leave!"
Song Yiqing stood up at that moment; if Luo Wei left, she would follow him out.
Seeing this, Zou Guodong quickly stepped forward.
"You brat, what took you so long to get here!"
"The food is already being served, everyone's waiting for you!"
Without allowing any room for argument, Zou Guodong arranged for Luo Wei to sit next to Lin Fei.
Not only that, but this seat was also the furthest from Song Yiqing!
This situation left Lin Fei momentarily stunned.
She hadn't expected Luo Wei to come at all.
After all, Luo Wei never used to attend classmate reunions.
She certainly hadn't expected Zou Guodong to seat Luo Wei right next to her.
Didn't Zou Guodong know? She and Luo Wei had broken up a long time ago!
However, a flicker of anticipation couldn't help but rise in her heart; sitting with Luo Wei might just rekindle their old flame.
But just then, Song Yiqing walked over. "I say, Class Monitor, are you doing this on purpose?"
"Even I know that Luo Wei and Lin Fei have broken up, so why would you arrange for them to sit together?"
"Lin Fei, let me swap seats with you."
"Oh..." Lin Fei was somewhat reluctant.
But she had no way to refuse.
She stood up and walked over to sit in Song Yiqing's seat.
Seeing this, Zou Guodong had no choice but to quickly swap seats with Yang Qian so he could sit on Song Yiqing's other side.
Witnessing this scene, everyone thought Song Yiqing was looking out for Lin Fei, but only Zou Guodong knew that Song Yiqing was here for Luo Wei!
Zou Guodong reached his limit and lashed out at Luo Wei, "Speaking of which, Luo Wei, you and Lin Fei went through so much together over the years. Why did you suddenly break up? It's such a pity!"
"Luo Wei, it must be your fault. You must have had a change of heart, right?"
Facing Zou Guodong's accusations, Luo Wei chuckled.
Activating his Intelligence Eye, he looked toward Zou Guodong.
A line of text intelligence appeared next to Zou Guodong's head.
'This guy goes to Pattaya Foot Massage every week and always requests Technician Number 18.'
Seeing such a piece of information, Luo Wei countered without hesitation, "That's right, I'm a fickle person."
"I'm not as 'devoted' as you, Class Monitor. You go to Pattaya Foot Massage every week and always request Technician Number 18, right?"
Hearing Luo Wei mention this, Zou Guodong's face turned red and white by turns!
He couldn't understand at all how Luo Wei knew about this!
He hurriedly tried to explain to prevent Song Yiqing from misunderstanding.
"That... that is a legitimate establishment..."
"I... I just go there to get my feet washed..."
"Well, our feet support the entire weight of our bodies, so it's only right to treat them well..."
"Hehe..." Luo Wei continued his attack. "Washing your feet is perfectly normal, but why is your face turning red, Class Monitor? You haven't been to an illegitimate foot massage parlor, have you?"
Proving one's innocence is a thankless task, so Zou Guodong quickly jumped out of the self-justification trap.
He turned to look at Brother Hao, preparing to use Brother Hao to attack Luo Wei!
"Hao-zi, aren't you going to stand up and say a few words?"
"I heard that Luo Wei was the one who caused you to lose your job!"
"Luo Wei, how could you do such a thing?"
"The current economic climate is so bad, and it's not easy for anyone to find a job!"
"We were classmates once. I don't expect everyone to help each other, but we shouldn't be undermining one another!"
"Why don't you explain to everyone what happened with Hao-zi?"
Facing Zou Guodong's questioning, everyone turned their gaze toward Luo Wei.
Especially Song Yiqing; her eyes had never left Luo Wei.
Luo Wei smiled as he looked at the haggard Brother Hao. "Did you lose your job? Does it have anything to do with me?"
Brother Hao being fired from Taian Company did indeed have some connection to Luo Wei.
But he absolutely could not pin this matter on Luo Wei!
After all, Luo Wei was a ruthless person who didn't even care about giving face to the local bully, Li Taian!
If he offended Luo Wei, he definitely wouldn't have a pleasant outcome. He shook his head without hesitation to deny it!
"Being fired from the company was due to my own lack of ability; it has nothing to do with Luo Wei!"
"See that, Class Monitor!" Luo Wei looked at Zou Guodong with a dark expression.
"This matter clearly has nothing to do with me, yet you actually tried to splash dirty water on me!"
"If Technician Number 18 from Pattaya gets pregnant some other day and says it's yours, you'll know how wronged I feel right now!"
Zou Guodong was both anxious and angry. How could he not see that Brother Hao was afraid of Luo Wei!
Honestly, he had no idea what Brother Hao was so afraid of!
Luo Wei was really touching a sore spot!
He had mentioned Technician Number 18 yet again!
How was Song Yiqing going to view him now?
With a grim face, Zou Guodong quickly looked at Yang Wei, who had a face like a shoehorn!
During their university days, Yang Wei often followed behind Zou Guodong, acting as his vanguard and lackey.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Yang Wei was attacking his food with both hands—a chicken leg in one and a lobster in the other—eating with great gusto, completely failing to notice Zou Guodong's gaze!
That fellow was truly useless. Zou Guodong regretted not briefing Yang Wei beforehand.
With no other choice, he had to enter the fray himself.
He ignored Luo Wei's previous sarcasm.
He brought up what had happened earlier.
"Luo Wei, you don't seem to be doing very well for yourself right now."
"When I called to invite you to the gathering, you were actually worrying about things like your perfect attendance bonus and performance metrics."
"If I hadn't compensated you with five thousand yuan, you probably wouldn't have come at all!"
Hearing this, Yang Wei's eyes widened.
The Class Monitor actually gave Luo Wei compensation!
He wanted some too!
"And your female friend Cheng Yunshu is the same."
"A graduate from a prestigious university actually working as a real estate agent—how degrading!"
"Look at Tang Hui, your roommate; he's a boss now, while you..."
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare!" Before Zou Guodong could finish, Tang Hui fearfully walked over to Luo Wei with a glass of wine. "Let me propose a toast to you!"
Tang Hui was a successful man; he had inherited his father-in-law's Furniture Factory and could easily earn several million a year!
But now, he was actually bowing and scraping to curry favor with Luo Wei. What on earth was going on?
At this moment, Zou Guodong finally realized.
Luo Wei might not be an ordinary person...
