Not a god

Chapter 166 High School Reunion
"By the way, what's your name?"

"Name? Yan Di, didn't I tell you already?"

"That's just a nickname."

"Oh, you said the name, right?"

An interesting point is that, up to now, she seems to have... really no name.

After all, the purpose of a name is to make it convenient for people to call you, and when her reputation as Emperor Yan became famous throughout the world, this name accompanied her throughout her life.

Just like other gods, or those of the fourth-rank king, even though they knew that the real name of the King of Fengdu Underworld was Jiang Wanwan, no one would call her by her real name when they met her, but just call her "Emperor".

Yan Emperor also had many friends, and he had friends everywhere in the world. He could be said to be the god who enjoyed life most with the people, but no one had ever asked about his real name.

Either not qualified or not familiar enough,
Jiang Wanwan, who is qualified and familiar enough, ignores everyone. When people call her, they either call her "hey" or "you", or just call her Yan Di. He never cares about her name.

When asked about her name today, Emperor Yan was also stunned for a moment.

"Name, name, let me think..."

"You don't even have a name, do you?"

"Yes, there is still some."

Chen Xi didn't force her after hearing that. It was already past noon when they came out of the Public Security Bureau. He took Jiang Xiaowan and the big Yi Yi to the roadside to eat some Chongqing noodles.

"I have to go back to school later. Zhen Wen said that there will be a reunion with my high school classmates in the afternoon. Xiao Wan, do you want to go with me?"

He asked Jiang Wanwan, but Jiang Wanwan didn't want to go. Her relationship with her high school classmates couldn't be said to be bad, but it couldn't be said to be good either.

High school was the time when she was most introverted. She barely spoke to anyone other than Chen Xi.

There are many reasons for this.

Chen Xi's excellence, academic pressure, and addiction to the second dimension and games.

Most high school girls form small groups, and Jiang Wanwan is a day student and follows Chen Xi all day long, which results in her not having much interaction with the girls in the class.

Many boys paid attention to her. After all, Jiang Wanwan's beauty was obvious, and it was hard not to attract attention. However, they were all targeting her.

High school is the time when you should study hard. Don't bother me with relationships. Don't disturb me from studying late at night...

So Jiang Wanwan was like a ghost in high school.

It does fit with her current identity as the King of the Underworld in Fengdu.

But thinking back now, Chen Xi also realized that he was also a big reason why Jiang Wanwan developed such an autistic personality.

Jiang Wanwan was "abandoned" by her parents repeatedly when she was young, which caused her to cling to herself very much. When she grew up a little, she was not willing to play with others.

If at that time, Chen Xi had actively encouraged her and guided her to establish connections with others, with people other than him, her brother, Jiang Wanwan would probably not be a gloomy and reclusive girl in high school, but a graceful, cheerful and lively school beauty goddess.

There is no point in saying this, there is no need to assume a path that has not been taken.

Even if he felt guilty and thought that it was because he did not guide her well, Jiang Wanwan probably did not think that there was anything wrong with following her brother around like a little loser.

"High school...?"

Jiang Xiaowan thought back to his high school life. Apart from his brother and exams in various subjects, all he could think of were various otaku comics for younger sisters or shoujo comics for older brothers, as well as various ACGN. His high school classmates, who were they... Misaki Tobisawa, Cong Yu, Shion, Ningning... They were all characters from galgames. He couldn't even remember the name of a single high school classmate!

She picked up the cup on the table and drank a sip of water gracefully. Because her face was expressionless, no one could see her embarrassment:

"Xiao Wan has to accompany grandma to the hospital for a checkup today, so she may not be able to go."

"Where's Aunt Jiang?"

"She has an announcement and she's going to run the announcement."

"Only you?"

"And my sister."

"Can you and Wanwan go together? Or should I go with you?"

"No need, brother. Xiao Wan can..."

She paused, then said, "Actually, my sister is also very reliable. She just doesn't want to act independent at all in front of her brother."

"That's it."

"Ah."

Jiang Xiaowan can do everything that Jiang Wanwan can do, but Jiang Xiaowan can't do what Jiang Wanwan can do. Although Jiang Xiaowan is older in real age, it's not wrong to call Jiang Wanwan "sister".

Jiang Xiaowan always keeps her back straight, like an ancient young lady secluded in her boudoir.

If it were Jiang Wanwan, she would be like someone with ADHD, saying she was hot one moment and then leaning on his shoulder like a boneless person the next.

This is also the difference between the two of them.

My grandmother's health has recovered a lot in recent days, but because she is old, and she didn't catch up with the good time for the revival of spiritual energy, she can only prolong her life for a while at most.

Chen Xi grabbed one of her hands and kneaded it. After these days of diet therapy, Xiao Wan, who was a little thin and sick, had recovered a lot and now weighed about 80 kilograms. Her hands were small and soft, and very comfortable to knead.

But one thing has not changed, that is, when she is outside, the girl is still so shy. Just when he touches her little hand, her ears turn red. It's so cute.

Chen Xi likes his girlfriend who is always shy, and she smiled: "Is it too hot?"

"No, no."

"Why is Xiaowan's face so red?"

"Brother, your touch is so obscene..."

"Xiao Wan is so sensible, she must have suffered a lot, brother must be heartbroken."

"It's okay, just replenish your brother's energy a little more at night."

“You can also add more now.”

"Now outside..."

“No one else will notice this.”

Jiang Xiaowan was somewhat tempted, but he glanced at the dumbfounded person sitting opposite him, frowned, and thought about how to tell the other person to go out.

At this time, the waiter brought a few bowls of noodles.

Looking at the three steaming bowls of noodles, Jiang Xiaowan sighed in his heart.

If it was dessert or McDonald's, she would sit on her brother's lap and let her brother feed her.

Chen Xi went to get three more bottles of glass Coke and gave one to Yan Di:
"What about you? Did you go to the hospital with them this afternoon?"

"No!" Emperor Yan resolutely refused: "I...I want to go around and have a look."

Along the way, she was actually interested in many things, and she felt everything in the city was very strange.

"Whatever you want, do you remember the name?"

"Not yet... What is this? Black water?"

"Carbonated drinks, for drinking."

"Why is it so dark?"

She frowned, took a sip with the mentality of testing poison, her brows relaxed, then frowned again, uncertain, and took two more sips... Her brows became more and more furrowed.

When she left, she asked for ten bottles. Chen Xi didn't know where she hid them. She held a bottle in her hand with a straw, drinking while walking, looking very cool. When there were dogs fighting on the roadside, she stood aside and watched, taking a sip of Coke from time to time, looking very cool.

After all, he is such a grown-up now, and now he is also a clone with the strength of a third-level public life. Chen Xi feels that there is no need to worry too much.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, I first went to school where my tutor held a group meeting.

At around five o'clock, I met Zhen Wen at school.

"Oh my, the teacher is actually having a party at this time."

"What a time to say it!"

"I've just learned a new trick. Old Chen, I'm definitely the most handsome guy at the class reunion this time!"

"Do you think Tingting will come this time?"

This fat black guy talks a lot, but Chen Xi is immune to all of it.

The two of them went to a high school barbecue reunion by the river. At this time, many people popped up in the group, asking who had arrived.

This is not a high school class group, but just a small group of about twenty people.

After all, it has been four years since we graduated from high school. It is not easy to get everyone together. It’s just that during this period, most of the college students are about to graduate and have the most free time. The old squad leader said that it is already amazing that they can gather so many people together.

In high school, Chen Xi was different from Jiang Wanwan. To be frank... he was the male god in the hearts of thousands of high school girls.

Don't laugh, this is normal. He is handsome, has good grades, is good at sports, and wins one or two gold medals for his class in every school sports meet. A boy of his level must have left a legend in high school. After he graduated, many schoolmates asked him which university he went to. At this time, some people would make fun of him and sigh, saying that he seemed to have gone to Kassel University...

Love letters, those born after 95 basically don’t do this kind of thing, but there were indeed countless female classmates who cried and became depressed on the message board of their QQ space. Later, there were no more such things when he was in the third year of high school, because he no longer allowed strangers to enter his QQ space.

Of course, most of those who boldly expressed their love were from the next class, as well as junior and senior students, and there was almost no one from the same class.

This may be the so-called distance creates beauty. After spending every day together, many filters will be removed. Perhaps many years later, when we meet again, the address may have become Boss Chen, Chairman Chen, or Director Chen, but in that small classroom with more than 40 people, you only need to call me the Sports Commissioner.

This is the beauty of student life. No matter what class or how big the gap between us is, we are all equal classmates here.

Of course, the most important point is that probably all the girls in the class felt that he and Jiang Wanwan were unclear. Even though he clarified countless times that they were cousins, these people just didn't believe it.

Who would have thought that they would actually be together later and have even got their marriage certificate.

“……”Okay, I think I’ve thought of it all.

Chen Xi arrived with Zhen Wen. When they arrived, there were seven or eight people, including the old squad leader.

When a few boys met, they laughed. Although I don’t know what they were laughing at, it seemed strange, anyway, they laughed when they met, and greeted each other in a sly tone:
"Oh! Old schoolmate!"

"Old classmates, old classmates!"

"Brother Chen is still as charming as ever!"

"How come Old Chen hasn't changed at all?!"

Looking at his silly classmates who were almost the same as in his memory, Chen Xi also smiled. The sunset was their lost youth.

Those pretentious and face-slapping scenes at high school reunions in novels are simply impossible to happen.

"What have you been busy with lately..."

"Why is the game not online yet..."

"How much does Fatty weigh now?"

After all, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and when we meet again, we all have a lot to talk about.

Not long after, the female classmates also came, in a group of them. I guess the girls made an appointment to come together.

Among them, one or two of them looked at Chen Xi frequently, and when they saw that there was no one next to him, they became a little more active.

After the girls came, the topic gradually changed:
"Have you heard that Tan Xiaoya and Wang Hao are together..."

"Also, Xiaohan failed the exam and went to repeat the year, but the result was..."

"By the way, why don't you see Huimei? Isn't Huimei coming?"

"Her? It seems like she just graduated from high school and went back to her hometown to get married..."

This is Chen Xi's favorite part.

Suddenly, one of the girls looked at Chen Xi and asked, "Oh, by the way, where's Wanwan? Why didn't Wanwan come?"

Chen Xi, who was listening to the gossip, was suddenly asked a question. He smiled and said, "Wanwan has to go to the hospital with her grandmother to recuperate today, so she can't come."

"pat-"

I don't know whose Coke spilled and it fell to the ground and made bubbles.

"Oh my, oh my, Xiaoqing, be careful, don't get your clothes wet, right?"

"No, no, no..."

"Paper towel, paper towel."

"Thank you, thank you. I can do it myself."

It seems that even classmates who knew that he was already in a relationship could not restrain themselves. Some classmates around him could see that there was something fishy about the girl who was drinking coke, but who doesn’t have regrets in their youth? Even if they found something wrong, they tacitly said nothing.

"Speaking of marriage, who..."

Fatty Zhen took this opportunity to change the subject to him: "Didn't Chen Xi get married too? He and Wan Wan got their marriage certificate this year."

"pat-"

I don't know who spilled the Coke again, and it wet a few pieces of charcoal.

"Zhuzhu, why are you so careless?"

"Come on, tissue paper."

"This piece of charcoal is all wet. Go get two more from the boss."

It seems that their class has a lot of regrets.

Continuing with the previous topic, when the other students heard that Chen Xi was married, they all looked like they knew it, like they were all prophets:

"That's normal."

“You’re only getting it this year?”

"In my senior year of high school, I sat behind them, listening to them yelling at me every day, night after night. I couldn't stand it anymore..."

Fatty Zhen ate a skewer of meat and said, "You have a child, a cute little girl. Let's call her Chen Yi, right, Old Chen?"

"pat-"

The boys looked over with expressionless faces. Oi! Oi! Oi! That's too much. Just because you're handsome, you can do whatever you want? Chen Xi, are you really going to take all the limelight by yourself? !
The girl who spilled the coke this time looked pitiful and said weakly, "I, I really just didn't mean it..."

"Pfft!"

I don’t know who laughed first, but the surroundings were suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

But the most discussed topic now is, of course, "The Destiny Man". Soon the topic turned to the Destiny Man, Evil Corpse, Dreamland and so on that are now on the hot searches every day, who awakened to the destiny, and what happened in the dreamland.

Chen Xi had no interest in this topic and thought it would be better to talk about the gossip about his high school classmates.
