Hong Kong is in full swing

Yu Wan had no choice but to agree. Meng Lingjun handed her paper and pen. Yu Wan thanked him and began to draw Wei Size's face. After a while, a vivid face appeared on the paper.

Meng Lingjun was the first to take it, looked at it carefully, and then exclaimed "Wow".

"I remembered it all!"

She looked at Yu Wan and said, "You must be the talented girl from Pengcheng who ranked first in the joint entrance exam at the age of 16, Yu Wan!"

The scene suddenly became quiet.

Everyone's eyes were focused on her, but Yu Wan remained calm and composed.

Zhong Xinyuan glanced at Yu Wan, then asked Meng Lingjun, "You didn't recognize the wrong person, did you?"

"Absolutely." Meng Lingjun pointed to the last stroke of her signature and said, "The last stroke of the character 'Ci' in her signature looks like the tail of a small snake. I've remembered it for years."

Meng Lingjun really remembered it for many years.

On the one hand, it was because her painting was so good that Meng Lingjun felt quite emotional; on the other hand, she had thrown an eraser to Meng Lingjun without hesitation at a critical moment, and it landed heavily on her palm, as if it was an affirmation of her future.

"No wonder you looked familiar to me the moment I saw you just now." Meng Lingjun said succinctly, "Eight years ago, during the Guangdong Provincial Joint Examination, I sat behind you. Your eraser fell, and you gave me yours without a word. Do you remember now?"

Meng Lingjun observed Yu Wan's gradually relaxing expression, unsure if she still remembered, and seemed a little anxious: "You really don't have any recollection at all?"

"remembered."

Yu Wan smiled slowly: "You were almost crying at that time, it was really distressing."

Meng Lingjun blushed slightly. "Heroes don't talk about their past achievements. Let's just add each other's contact information first."

As she spoke, she took out her phone and said, "I wanted to meet you back then, but you walked away so quickly that you disappeared the moment I turned around. Later, I heard that you were recommended to the Central Academy of Fine Arts. I was so envious."

Zhong Xinyuan took a sip of wine and smiled at Wei Size, "It really is fate. Wei Size, you have a good eye for making friends."

"It's fate that brings us together after so many miles. Lingjun has wanted to meet Yu Wan for eight years. Today, she's finally getting her wish, thanks to me." Meng Lingjun said with a smile, "Look at this guy, he's flattering himself again."

"Haha."

Wei Song asked Meng Lingjun for the painting, praised Yu Wan's craftsmanship, took a photo and posted it on his Moments, saying it was the best birthday gift.

Zhong Xinyuan swiped the screen and turned off the phone directly.

Amidst the laughter and playfulness, Meng Lingjun began to arrange the next step and suggested going to the swimming pool to open champagne.

Lin Congjue was the first to stand up and said, "Let's go. I'm so thirsty." Zhong Xinyuan and Shen Ying also stood up.

The group moved to the outdoor swimming pool. The music was lively, and handsome men and beautiful women came in one after another. Meng Lingjun led the atmosphere and cheered.

Yu Wanze sat on the beach chair, watching them play quietly without joining in.

Wei Size handed Yu Wan a glass of soda water and asked, "Do you want to change into your swimsuit? They might have a water fight later."

Yu Wan shook her head and said, "I'll just stay here and watch you guys play."

She was obviously not very interested, and Wei Song did not force her.

The outdoor music was blasting. Shen Ying and a few others had a few drinks. Holding their glasses, they slowly walked towards the beach chairs. Instead of sitting down directly, they politely asked Yu Wan, "Can I sit next to you?"

"Please." Yu Wan said politely.

Shen Ying sat down, then smiled gently at Yu Wan and said in a friendly manner, "Miss Yu looks quite young."

"I'm exactly twenty-four this year."

Shen Ying praised him, "You're really at the age of youth. I heard you just came back from studying abroad in Florence. Lingjun praised you as a genius. Your reputation is well-deserved."

"Guangdong and Hong Kong are full of talented people. I'm just a bit luckier, that's nothing special. If we talk about genius, Miss Chu should be the real genius."

Yu Wan continued, "After all, not everyone has the ability to make three newspapers generate over 100 million yuan in annual revenue before the age of 30."

Shen Ying listened, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. "That's just a small business. Compared with the elders in the family, it's far from an achievement."

She raised her glass to Yu Wan and said politely, "Actually, sometimes I envy Miss Yu for being able to travel around the world to study and do what she wants."

Yu Wan's mind was as clear as a mirror.

Shen Ying asked her again, "Just now in the hall, I heard Miss Yu generously giving Teacher Mei a painting. Did she buy a masterpiece?"

Yu Wan didn't elaborate, only mentioning that she had another painting in her hand.

Shen Ying immediately expressed her willingness to purchase it at a high price for her collection.

Before she could answer, a waiter from the swimming pool pushed a birthday cake over, ready to officially celebrate Wei Size's birthday.

They both stood up. Shen Ying took out a business card from her handbag and handed it to Yu Wan. "This is my contact information. If Miss Yu is interested in selling, please be sure to contact me."

Yu Wan took it with a smile.

As night fell, colorful lights flickered outside. Wei Size was pushed to the center amid laughter, and people gathered around him.

Meng Lingjun squeezed out of the crowd, holding Yu Wan's hand. As they were walking, they suddenly lost their footing and fell uncontrollably towards the pool.

Yu Wan instinctively reached out to pull, but was tripped by a foot from nowhere and fell into the water, splashing water all over the sky.

The incident happened suddenly, and a group of handsome men and beautiful women jumped into the water to save people, but Yu Wan had already taken the lead and pulled Meng Lingjun to the edge of the pool. Meng Lingjun choked on the water and fell directly on her, coughing constantly.

Yu Wan herself was also struggling, and she leaned against the edge of the pool, breathing slowly.

Wei Size hurried over, grabbed Yu Wan and asked, "How are you? Are you okay?"

Yu Wan shook her head: "I'm fine."

He went to ask Meng Lingjun again, but she waved her hand and reluctantly uttered the words "it's okay" while still retching.

Shen Ying quickly asked someone to bring a towel and said quickly, "Your clothes are all wet. Lingjun, you and Miss Yu should go change clothes first."

Water droplets dripped down Yu Wan's hair. Zhong Xinyuan sighed and said, "Although the scene is a bit embarrassing, Miss Yu's appearance is truly worthy of the phrase 'graceful and lovable'."

This sounded familiar. Yu Wan recalled it briefly and realized that it appeared in an article that accused her of trying to get ahead by using her wet body to seduce others.

Zhong Xinyuan looked her up and down and said with a smile, "It's true. What a beautiful sight."

The words were full of contempt and the scene was silent.

Meng Lingjun stood up from the ground and said impatiently, "Alright, is that all right?"

Zhong Xinyuan was embarrassed and very unhappy: "Meng Lingjun, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean by asking me?" Meng Lingjun looked at her with an unhappy expression. "I've put up with you all night."
