After the divorce, my ex-husband and son lined up to pursue me.

Chapter 172 Class Reunion
“If you don’t want to, then I absolutely will not allow you to leave.”

The most important thing when traveling is to have money. With money, you can solve 99% of the problems.

Although there might be some difficult situations at a class reunion, if you have money, no one will dare to make things difficult for you.

Moreover, others may not be inclined to make things difficult for you, so you can relax as soon as possible.

Jiang Xia frowned, and after repeated persuasion from Ruan Muhuai, he finally had no choice but to accept the gold card.

Whether or not to use it is one thing, but if I don't take it myself, it would probably be a little inappropriate.

These classmates are all from high school, and it's been a long time since then.

I wonder what changes have taken place in its current appearance?
But it doesn't matter. No matter what changes happen, I'll always be there for you.

As long as you have money, you can solve the problems.

The class reunion was coming soon.

Jiang Xia ultimately chose to take a taxi instead of having the housekeeper drive her.

She didn't want to be too high-profile anymore, since many high school students weren't doing well.

It's better to keep a low profile.

As soon as he got off the bus, Teacher Lei's eyes lit up when he saw Du Jiangxia.

She quickly stepped forward and grasped Jiang Xia's hands tightly, tears streaming down her face.

"Jiang Xia, it's been a long time. You are still as beautiful as ever."

"Okay, okay, seeing how beautiful you are, I'm completely relieved."

Jiang Xia blinked innocently; Teacher Lei was as adorable as ever.

When people meet, the first thing they ask is about the other person's job and marital status. But when you look at other people, it seems like they don't even ask about marital status.

If you're only concerned with appearance, I must say this is the first time I've ever met such a lovely and sensible homeroom teacher.

"Hehe, Teacher Lei, you're still very beautiful now."

Teacher Lei nodded with a smile: "Let's go, everyone's almost here, let's go in."

They quickly entered the room.

However, many people pointed and whispered about Jiangxia.

This made Teacher Lei frown in displeasure.

"You're all classmates, so just put your minds straight."

Qian Lili took a step forward without hesitation, put her hands on her hips, and looked at Jiang Xia with disdain.

I looked at Teacher Lei again.

"Hehe, Teacher Lei, you probably still don't know, but Jiang Xia, whom you've always been optimistic about, has now married a tycoon."

"However, the rich man doesn't care about her at all. When he came here, he actually took a taxi by himself. Hahaha, it's really hilarious."

The others nearby couldn't help but start gossiping.

"Exactly, exactly, it's clear that the big shots have gotten tired of playing with them."

"That's hilarious. With such limited skills, what kind of capital can they possibly have? In the end, they'll just be abandoned."

"It's hilarious that someone like this actually thinks he's so capable. If it were me, I wouldn't even bother to crawl into this place."

"It's ridiculous that they even dared to attend a class reunion. I have serious contempt for them."

"There's nothing I can do. This guy just likes to put on a show of being powerful, and this is the first time I've ever looked down on him."

Jiang Xia frowned, not expecting the people present to be so malicious.

“Actually, Jiang Xia isn’t the kind of person you think she is. At least she still works at the research institute. She relies on herself,” Liu Ruyi suddenly said weakly.

Liu Ruyi had long hair covering her face, making it impossible for anyone to see her face clearly.

Jiang Xia was taken aback; he knew this woman somewhat.

He rarely talks to himself and is very insecure.

To her surprise, the other party was actually willing to speak up for her. This truly astonished her, as others always stood at a distance and watched silently.

They were unwilling to speak at all, and instead mostly mocked her.

He was slightly surprised that only Liu Ruyi was willing to speak up for him.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed what I was seeing.

Jiang Xia suddenly raised his head and looked sharply at Qian Lili.

He smiled and said, "Qian Lili, you're right, I don't have much money. But would you like to have some fun with me?"

"How about we split all the expenses today?"

Qian Lili was stunned, looking at Jiang Xia in disbelief.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xia would turn the conflict towards himself.

This made her a little timid, but seeing everyone else, who all seemed full of courage and even waiting silently on the sidelines, she realized that she was quite timid.

If you back down, how can you stand up in front of a group of people?
Many of my friends are here. If I back down, I'll probably be subjected to endless ridicule.

No matter how you look at it, it just doesn't make sense, and the more I think about it, the angrier I get.

I have never seen anything so outrageous; this behavior is utterly ridiculous.

"What, you don't dare? If you don't dare, I can understand. Anyway, it's nothing. Just kneel down and bark like a dog three times, and apologize to me obediently." Jiang Xia's eyes were icy, and his words were exceptionally cold and piercing.

“Okay, I’m willing.” Qian Lili gritted her teeth and agreed without hesitation.

Anyway, this time it shouldn't cost much.

What does it matter if I gamble? My father owns a company anyway.

This small amount of money is enough to cover food expenses.

However, it's uncertain whether Jiangxia will be able to produce it.

She already knew that the other party had never had much money.

It happens naturally and doesn't require much thought.

Jiang Xia smiled and snapped his fingers.

"Waiter, bring the menu."

"Ten sets of each of the following: scallop, hairy crab, and lobster. Also, bring me a batch of Lafite."

The class monitor, who had originally intended to confess his feelings, suddenly switched to polite language.

Some people didn't know how to bring it up; the conversation had already gone this far, what else could they do?

I want to confess my feelings, but my wallet won't allow it.

What's more, the other party was once kept by a wealthy man.

Although I don't care about myself, I do care a lot about how others perceive me.

The world may not think highly of her, and may even ridicule her verbally on multiple occasions.

All of this is possible, and thinking about it now makes one feel that the situation is somewhat ominous.

Qian Lili turned pale as she listened to the long list of menu items.

"Um... Jiang Xia, are you sure you can finish all this food? Maybe you should order a little less."

"We can't waste food, can we? If you order too much, it will all be a complete waste in the end."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xia gently gritted her teeth.

At the same time, he looked at Qian Lili with a stubborn gaze.

"Hehe, Qian Lili, don't worry, this is all seafood after all, and you won't get full from just seafood."

"You can't possibly get full no matter what you eat. Since it's all food that won't fill you up anyway, what are you worried about?"
