18: Chapter 18 The Class Reunion That Was Teased by the Whole Class

"What's so funny?" Chen Hao couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Jinyue quickly composed her expression, returning to her cold and aloof demeanor, and her fingers typed rapidly on the screen: [Serves you right.]

After sending this, she thought for a moment and added another line: [Huangting Banquet tonight, do you need me to bring your textbooks for you?]

She felt no pressure when chatting with Tang Luochuan.

Because the other party had already unlocked the first lock... and was even in the process of opening the second.

Facing Chen Hao's question, Jiang Jinyue smiled at him for the first time, and then added to Zhang Ming and Zhou Qi on the other side: "Tang Luochuan has been suspended and sent home... Did you guys know?"

Zhang Ming then turned his head: "Yeah, we know. He sent me and Old Zhou a message! Apparently, it's for 7 days."

"That brat..." Jiang Jinyue said, her tone tinged with a hint of coquettishness.

This couldn't help but make everyone suspect that this girl was lying. She was already dating the guy, just too embarrassed to say it.

On her end, Tang Luochuan's message came back: [Burn it over then... use a lighter!]

Jiang Jinyue's smile widened, and she quickly replied: [Get lost...]

Putting down her phone, she looked around. Everyone was looking at her with an incomprehensible gaze.

"What?" Jiang Jinyue had returned to her goddess image, that aura clearly telling you: if you have no money and no status, get lost.

Chen Hao didn't say anything else, but he felt extremely uncomfortable inside; this woman was exactly his type. She made people feel an intense desire to conquer her. To have such a girl underneath him—that was the wish of so many guys.

"How about this," another male student suddenly spoke up at this moment. It was none other than Zhao Kai, the one who said he liked pour-over coffee.

"Let's call up Luochuan and the other classmates! Let's all have dinner together tonight. We're all freshmen, so let's get to know each other. We only had a simple self-introduction yesterday, and I haven't even recognized everyone yet."

Someone immediately chimed in: "Hey? That's a good suggestion. Wasn't Luochuan going to eat with you guys anyway? Let's just make it the whole class."

"This..." Zhang Ming frowned slightly. Zhou Qi was also a bit unhappy; he hadn't even been to the Huangting Banquet yet. A class gathering? Where would they go? Just find some random restaurant??

"I'll go contact him!" A male student said and did it, tagging Tang Luochuan directly in the group chat.

[ @Tang Luochuan, let's have dinner together tonight, class gathering! Are you coming? ]

At this moment, Tang Luochuan was lying on his large bed, looking at houses nearby. Most of them were large flat-floor apartments.

He had two properties back in his hometown: one was a 90-square-meter apartment in an old residential complex where he lived with his parents, and the other was his grandparents' farmhouse. Compared to villas, he preferred large flats; they had a better view.

"Over 400 square meters, 30 million! 785 square meters, 50 million! That's not bad! A villa... 200 million? Too desolate."

After searching for a long time, he decided to first pick a 50-million-yuan large flat near the school! One with a view of the Huangpu River, and a 20-minute drive from the school. It would also be close to the Bund and Lujiazui.

A message popped up. He opened WeChat; it was the request from his class inviting him to the class gathering. Tang Luochuan hesitated slightly; he was still thinking about having a good chat with Shen Muyan tonight.

Although he wasn't a scumbag, that didn't stop him from being lecherous. As long as he took responsibility after sleeping with them, right?

"What a hassle..." Tang Luochuan wanted to decline. But by now, quite a few classmates besides him had started responding in the group. Sometimes it was really hard to refuse these kinds of group activities.

Classmate A: [Where to? What time are we meeting?] Classmate B: [I looked it up, there's a nice farmhouse restaurant nearby! The price is okay!] Chen Hao: [I know the owner of a private kitchen, he can give us a discount!] Zhao Kai: [How about we go to Juxuan Pavilion? 300 per person, that's quite reasonable!] Classmate C: [Too expensive, can't afford it. Let's keep it under 100 per person.] Classmate A: [Yes, yes, yes. Just started school, we should save some living expenses!]

Tang Luochuan looked at the group chat, a cold sneer at the corner of his mouth: "At this point, still trying to show off?"

His finger hovered over the screen for a moment, and he was just about to decline, but the messages in the group all started pointing at him.

[ @Tang Luochuan, come on! Everyone is waiting for you! ] [ Luochuan, give us some face. Your self-introduction yesterday was too short; everyone wants to get to know you! ] [ Yeah, Brother Tang! Let's get to know each other, we're all classmates. ] [ Come join us!! @Tang Luochuan... ]

Messages kept scrolling up one after another, and in the blink of an eye, dozens had appeared, as if the whole class was waiting for his response.

Tang Luochuan's eyelids twitched. Did these people plan this? Aside from Chen Hao and a few others who wanted to use this opportunity to observe the relationship between Jiang Jinyue and Tang Luochuan, the others genuinely wanted to get to know Tang Luochuan. The girls wanted to see if they had a chance to become number three, four, five, or six... The boys felt that since he was a top-tier rich young master, making friends with him would be helpful in the future. It was normal for rich people to be fawned over.

Tang Luochuan: [Alright then, I might have to bring a few people! Do you mind?] [Don't mind, I'm bringing my girlfriend too!] [Yes, yes, yes, those with partners can bring them...] Naturally, the group didn't mind, though those who chose to bring partners were basically boys bringing their girlfriends. Currently, only three or four boys in the class were dating, and some had even come to Shanghai together from high school.

... Ending the group chat, Tang Luochuan sent a message to Shen Muyan: [Plans have changed. Let's continue hanging out this afternoon! The Huangting Banquet is changed to a class gathering tonight. Come with me.]

Shen Muyan: [Your class gathering? It wouldn't be appropriate for me to go, right.]

Tang Luochuan: [They said we can bring girlfriends, a few classmates are bringing theirs.]

"Girlfriend??" Shen Muyan gripped her phone tightly, staring intently at those words. She hadn't agreed to be his girlfriend, and Tang Luochuan hadn't made it clear either. He just said it was a class gathering where they could bring girlfriends, so he was taking her. Their relationship wasn't defined, and she was going to eat there as his girlfriend?? A feeling of ambiguity instantly flooded her entire body, and Shen Muyan immediately flushed red.

"What should I do? Continue this ambiguity? Or refuse? Or... just reply with a simple 'Okay??' and wait for him to make another bold confession?"

"What are you thinking about?" Wang Fangfang noticed something was off with her. Shen Muyan quickly turned off her phone screen and stammered: "Um... Luochuan said the plans for noon are unchanged, he's taking us out to play! And then tonight... he wants me to attend their class gathering..."

"Did his class invite you as a senior student? Or..." "He said the class allows us to bring a gir... girlfriend... some classmates are bringing them, so he..." The implication was clear. At a class gathering, if a boy brings someone who isn't in the class, it definitely can't be just a normal friend or buddy. Wouldn't that just be freeloading for a meal?? It had to be a partner.
