"Once she arrives, we'll only be able to play the role of the ugly duckling..." someone joked.

Li Sheng smiled lewdly, "So what? These days people laugh at poverty but not prostitution. If I can get in touch with her, the resources she has are enough to feed me five or six times my fill. Who cares about that!"

"That's true, but don't dream about it, they're not on our level!"

The group chatted and laughed as they stubbed out their cigarettes and went upstairs arm in arm.

At this moment, Xu Tian slowly drove up to the entrance of the club.

Zhao Jing got out of the car first, looked around, and then naturally took Xu Tian's arm and went inside.

"You go up first, I have a few words to say."

After entering, Zhao Jing went straight to the bar and asked the customer in room 301 what drinks he had ordered and how much he had spent.

Xu Tian went to room 301 alone. The room was already filled with familiar strangers.

"Holy crap, isn't this Xu Tian? It's been years! Come on in!"

Li Sheng reacted immediately and, feigning enthusiasm, pulled Xu Tian to sit down next to him.

"I haven't seen you at the gatherings in the last few years," Li Sheng asked knowingly.

Xu Tian smiled and said, "I'm too busy to have time."

Li Sheng exchanged a knowing glance with the person next to him, then chuckled, "Is it that you really don't have time, or do you just not want to come?"

"I bet Xu Tian is too busy taking care of his wife at home to come!" someone joked.

Xu Tian frowned. He hadn't come in the past few years because Zhang Qian thought he was embarrassing and wouldn't let him come. There was nothing to argue about. However, it seemed that they didn't know that he and Zhang Qian had divorced.

"Where's your wife? She's a real beauty, didn't she come with you?" Li Sheng asked again.

The female classmate next to me scoffed, "Did you not come, or did you just not want to come with me?"

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, as if mocking Xu Tian had become a major part of their gathering.

Xu Tian said without changing his expression, "Zhang Qian and I are already divorced. Whether she comes or not has nothing to do with me."

Seeing Xu Tian's serious expression, everyone believed him, but deep down they looked down on him even more.

Li Sheng pretended to be kind and said, "I've said it before, no matter what, a man should have his own career. You didn't listen to my advice and insisted on taking shortcuts to live a good life. Now I'm telling you, aren't I right?"

"It's not easy to be asked for money by a woman, especially for a grown man like me. What kind of man asks a woman for money?"

Seeing Xu Tian smile without saying anything, Li Sheng continued, "Work for me, I need a driver. Given our relationship, I'll pay you 10,000 a month, how about it?"

As he spoke, Li Sheng didn't forget to wink at the people around him.

"Mr. Li is the most successful one among us. You'll definitely be fine following him!"

"Yes, Mr. Li, I heard you bought another house this year? Looks like you've made quite a bit of money!"

Hearing everyone's compliments, Li Sheng became even more smug.

"Oh, these are all small businesses. We're just lucky; whatever we do succeeds..."

Then Li Sheng added, "Today's gathering is on me, so don't try to take it from me, or you're disrespecting me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, a barrage of flattery followed.

In the past, gatherings were always split equally (AA system), but this year Li Shengcai was so generous that he covered all the expenses. This is one of the most expensive places in Jiangcheng, and the minimum charge for just one private room is at least 30,000 yuan, not to mention the drinks that will be served later.

"See Xu Tian? From now on, you'll follow Boss Li. You'll have your day!"

Li Sheng calmly instructed, "Xu Tian, ​​go and call the waiter. They must be thirsty sitting here for so long. Come in and order some drinks for everyone."

"Hurry up and go, Xu Tian! This will be your boss from now on!" someone urged.

Just as everyone was making a fuss and laughing at Xu Tian, ​​the waiter arrived uninvited.

"Please move to the VIP room; someone has specially upgraded the room for you."

Upon hearing this, everyone naturally looked at Li Sheng, for in terms of strength, no one present was more powerful than him.

Li Sheng was also puzzled at this moment. Although he had made some money, he was not stupid. The minimum charge for the VIP room was more than 80,000 yuan. How could he spend so much money just to show off?

But everyone thought he had been promoted, and if he denied it now, he would probably lose face.

Thinking of this, Li Sheng forced a smile and said, "We only get together once a year, what's a little money like this? Let's go!"

Upon hearing this, everyone became even more certain that it was Li Shengsheng's hall, and compliments poured in. They then followed the waiter to the VIP room.

This was Li Sheng's first time spending money in such an expensive place. It was indeed different from ordinary private rooms. It was incredibly spacious with so many people sitting together, and the decor was also very high-end.

"Mr. Li is truly a man of few words. I've come here so many times to meet clients, but I've never been to the VIP section!" one of the students remarked, looking at the luxurious tables and chairs.

"It must cost a lot of money, Mr. Li! You've really gone to great lengths!"

Female students love places like this where they can post on social media without spending money. It seems that just taking a few photos and having everyone see them on social media gives them a great sense of satisfaction.

Sure enough, many female students started taking photos in various corners of the private room, as if they were born to be this kind of consumer group and couldn't wait to tell the world that they were living a good life.

"We were able to broaden our horizons today thanks to Mr. Li."

Everyone fawned over him.

Seeing this, Li Sheng's vanity was satisfied to the extreme; today, he was destined to be the protagonist.

"Sorry I'm late."

Zhang Qian pushed open the door and entered, shifting everyone's focus.

She hadn't planned to come, but when she saw that Xu Tian was in the WeChat Moments of their mutual friend, she rushed over in a hurry.

"It's alright, we just arrived too, please have a seat."

Zhang Qian nodded with a smile, and only after seeing Xu Tian did she relax and widen her smile.

In the past, she had always looked down on Xu Tian in front of her classmates. Today, she was going to make a special effort to be nice to him so that he would fall in love with her again.

"We were just introducing a job to Xu Tian."

Back in school, a female classmate who was on good terms with her whispered.

Zhang Qian glanced at Xu Tian, ​​and was about to retort when she saw her speak again.

"Back then, we all thought it was a bad deal for you to marry Xu Tian, ​​and look, it's true! He just said he's getting a divorce from you!"

"You must have left him because you couldn't stand him being a kept man, right? You should have left him a long time ago. How could a man like that be worthy of you!"

Hearing everyone say this, Zhang Qian swallowed her words of defense for Xu Tian. If she were to explain for Xu Tian now, she would probably become a laughing stock.

"I suggested it myself, it was really tiring," Zhang Qian said against her will.

Xu Tian had been watching this area closely, and when he heard Zhang Qian's words, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly; he should have guessed it long ago.

The door to the private room was opened again, and the waiter pushed in drinks, all of which were foreign liquors that he couldn't name.

"I've seen this bottle before. It's worth over 200,000 yuan a bottle, isn't it? Mr. Li is so generous!" someone with sharp eyes said.

Li Sheng was dumbfounded, but since everyone was looking at him as if it were the most natural thing in the world, he could only smile slightly and acquiesce.

The waiter served the drinks and then said respectfully, "These are from Mr. Xu Tian. Please enjoy yourselves, and feel free to call me if you need anything."
