I can support you.

Xue Pianpian patted her hands and said with a smile:

"What's so awkward about that? I've already said we don't need to be polite to each other."

Lu Qiufeng, who was separated from Xue Pianpian by a person, pursed her lips and said in a sour tone:

"Pian Pian, I realize that you have completely forgotten the affection we had in school. If I don't take the initiative to talk to you, you won't even answer me."

Xue Pianpian touched her nose and said awkwardly:

"No, no! It's mainly because there were so many people here today that I didn't have time to take care of it. We are classmates for three generations and I will never forget it."

Long Junyi couldn't help but feel a little distressed when he saw her embarrassed look as she was trying to make amends.

He gently squeezed Xue Pianpian's hand, then stood up very gentlemanly and said to Lu Qiufeng:

"Beauty, let's switch places so you can have a good chat with Pianpian."

Lu Qiufeng's expression became visibly more excited. She thanked Long Junyi repeatedly and sat down next to Xue Pianpian as quickly as possible.

Xue Pianpian smiled gently at Long Junyi, her eyes full of appreciation and gratitude.

As soon as Lu Qiufeng sat down, she took Xue Pianpian to recall every detail of their school days.

Lu Qiufeng:

"Pianpian, are you still in touch with Lin Xi?"

Xue Pianpian was confused for a moment, followed by a series of clear memories.

Lin Xi, her deskmate in the first grade of junior high school, was also the entertainment committee member of their class, a pretty and quiet girl.

Throughout the first day of the new year, Xue Pianpian was inseparable from her.

No matter what Xue Pianpian does, Lin Xi will accompany her quietly.

Xue Pianpian is enthusiastic, cheerful, lively and smart. She is not only a top student but also the most beautiful girl in class. She attracts attention wherever she goes.

Lin Xi, on the other hand, is introverted and has above-average academic performance. No matter where she is, she always appears to be calm and indifferent, not fighting or competing.

But these two people with such different personalities have a surprisingly good relationship.

Xue Pianpian really liked her temperament, which was like an orchid in the valley, and at the same time she felt an inexplicable love and pity for her.

Others may not know, but she knows very well what a tough and stubborn heart is hidden under Lin Xi's weak appearance.

When Lin Xi was just one year old, her mother left her and her father and went far away.

The reason was that her family was too poor and her father was lazy and violent.

The reason why her mother followed her father and came to Yang County from the picturesque G Province thousands of miles away was because she was attracted by her father's handsome and sunny appearance.

By the time they discovered that he had almost nothing good except his looks, Lin Xi was already in his infancy.

In the end, the desire for a better life overcame the mother-daughter affection for Lin Xi.

In this regard, Xue Pianpian once heard Lin Xi say:

Although her mother abandoned her, she did not hate her mother.

If it were her, she would make the same choice as her mother.

"Pianpian, Pianpian,"

Lu Qiufeng pushed Xue Pianpian, whose thoughts were drifting away, and shouted.

Xue Pianpian shook her head, with a trace of regret and melancholy in her eyes.

“No, we haven’t had any contact since she transferred.

Later I went to her home to ask about it, and her grandmother said that she went to school with her mother. "

Lu Qiufeng patted her shoulder gently.

"I saw her yesterday. She opened a small restaurant in the snack street behind the Yiboda Shopping Plaza in the county town.

She has changed a lot, becoming lively, cheerful and energetic.

Xue Pianpian was a little surprised.

"Really? She couldn't even speak loudly before."

Lu Qiufeng smiled and said:

"People change. I hesitated for a moment and then I was sure it was her until someone called her name."

Xue Pianpian felt a mixture of curiosity and excitement.

She couldn't wait to see this old classmate, her once inseparable deskmate.

After the party, she drove the tipsy Long Junyi to the snack street behind the Yiboda Shopping Plaza in the county town.

Diagonally opposite the snack street and the back door of the shopping mall, she indeed saw a small restaurant called Meilin Chaoxi.

When she walked into the store, she saw Lin Xi.

At this time, Lin Xi had neat short hair and exuded a sense of competence.

Xue Pianpian shouted excitedly:

"Lin Xi, dear classmate Xixi."

Lin Xi looked up and saw Xue Pianpian. He was stunned for a long moment, and then an expression of almost ecstasy appeared on his face.

She said a few words to the clerk, then pulled Xue Pianpian to sit down and start chatting.

She told Xue Pianpian about the difficulties she had experienced after leaving school, and how she had gradually learned to be strong in the face of difficulties; she told her how she and her husband had gone through many twists and turns and finally got together, and how she now had a happy family, two sons and one daughter, and a prosperous business.

Xue Pianpian was filled with emotion. Seeing how happy Lin Xi was now, she felt sincerely happy for her.

At the same time, she also felt it was magical that even though they had only been deskmates for one year and had not seen each other for more than 20 years, they did not feel any sense of strangeness.

Lin Xi never let go of her hand from beginning to end. That kind of familiarity and closeness was definitely not pretended, it came from the inside out, comfortable and natural.

Xue Pianpian also briefly talked about her situation over the years, including her studies, work, previous marriage, and even winning the lottery and her relationship with Long Junyi. Of course, she excluded the matter about rebirth and space.

Speaking of Long Junyi, Lin Xi grabbed Xue Pianpian's hand, smiled mischievously and said:

"Pianpian, call your handsome boy over to show me."

Xue Pianpian readily agreed:

"Okay, I didn't let him come with me just now because I was afraid that he drank too much and needed to rest. He should be awake by now. I'll call him right away."

She picked up the phone and before she had time to enter the number, she saw Mo Mingyuan walking in from outside.

He seemed to be a frequent visitor here. When Lin Xi saw him, he greeted him warmly:

"Here you are, Boss Mo, is it the same old three things?"

Mo Mingyuan saw Xue Pianpian and said in a surprised tone:

"Pian Pian is here too? I thought you guys had already returned to the provincial capital!"

Xue Pianpian spoke in a light tone.

"Not yet, I came to see Xixi, I'll be leaving soon."

Xue Pianpian gave up the idea of making a phone call and said to Lin Xi:

"Xixi, can you leave now? If you can, come with me to the car."

Lin Xi's tone was joyful:

"Of course I can! It's a good opportunity for me to see your luxury car. It would be even better if I could take a ride in it."

Xue Pianpian patted her arm.

"What did you say!"

The two walked out of the hotel arm in arm.

Mo Mingyuan stamped his feet in anxiety.

In the morning at Teacher Yin's house, he wanted to go up and talk to Xue Pianpian, but Long Junyi stayed by her side all the time. He was frightened by Long Junyi's methods and gave up the idea of getting closer.

Later, Long Junyi followed the bride's party. He thought the chance had finally come, but he was dragged by Li Shenglin to follow the wedding party.

After the banquet started, there was no chance at all.

At the dinner table, Tan Wenjie, Li Shenglin and others toasted Long Junyi and treated each other like brothers. It was so warm.

He felt that those people were so hypocritical! They said they had a good eye for each other, had the same temperament and taste.

Tsk! Why are you saying such nice things? Aren't you just trying to curry favor with him because he's rich?

The result! Of course, Long Junyi was drunk by everyone.

Deep down, when he saw everyone treating Long Junyi with respect like the moon surrounded by stars, he felt really bad.

There really is a kind of sadness and loneliness about the world’s decline and indifference.

Especially when he saw Long Junyi drunk and leaning on Xue Pianpian drunkenly, and Xue Pianpian not only did not show any annoyance, but looked at him with eyes full of doting, he really felt like going crazy.

He originally thought that this was the end of it today and there was no way he would be able to talk to Xue Pianpian.

Unexpectedly, after the banquet, he found that Xue Pianpian did not go back to the provincial capital directly, but drove towards the shopping mall.

He immediately remembered that when they were eating, he vaguely heard the conversation between Lu Qiufeng and Xue Pianpian. She seemed to have mentioned Lin Xi and the restaurant. He immediately knew what she was going to do.

He knew that Lin Xi opened a restaurant here and he visited here often.

After all, we are classmates, so we always have to take care of each other’s business.

Looking at Xue Pianpian who had parked her car in the square parking lot and got out of the car, a bold idea suddenly came to his mind.

When they were in school, Xue Pianpian and Lin Xi had a very good relationship.

If Xue Pianpian really went to find Lin Xi, it means that she still cares about the friendship of her former classmates.

Then, after the two of them meet, he just needs to convince Lin Xi and ask Lin Xi to help create an opportunity for him to meet Xue Pianpian. As long as they can be alone together, he believes that with his personal charm and the emotional foundation of so many years, Xue Pianpian will definitely be able to accept him again.
