Jiang Zheyuan spoke to Shao Wanwan, then walked over and sat down next to Lu Qin. "Are you in a good condition to travel far?"
Because he was genuinely worried, Jiang Zheyuan felt he should ask the question, both morally and logically.
"Don't worry, I can definitely attend your engagement party. There's no way I won't come, no way..." Lu Qin stared at him with a somewhat blank look in her eyes, speaking with particular stubbornness.
Jiang Zheyuan knew that Lu Qin was a very stubborn person, especially one who was very inflexible.
There was no reason to send her away at this point.
She could only manage a smile and say, "If you need anything, you can tell my mom or me. Especially if you're not feeling well, I'm glad you came. Thank you."
They shouldn't have become so distant; childhood friends who grew up together have drifted apart.
Old Lin from Linggeyi walked over and asked, "Did I disturb your reminiscing?"
Old Lin always had a smiling face. He didn't belong to the compound, but he was Jiang Zheyuan's good friend from junior high school. This time, he rushed back from Shanghai for the engagement banquet.
After graduating from high school, he was admitted to a university in Shanghai.
In fact, this was the first time Jiang Zheyuan had met Lao Lin since his rebirth.
Old Lin was actually his best friend in junior high and high school. He never expected that after being reborn, this would be the first time they would meet, or even the first time he would truly think of this person.
Every second of his life after his rebirth was etched with Shao Wanwan's name.
Old Lin's sudden appearance stunned Jiang Zheyuan for a while before he reacted and slapped him hard on the shoulder.
"Congratulations on your engagement, buddy." He handed Jiang Zheyuan a watch box.
Jiang Zheyuan didn't stand on ceremony with him and opened the watch box in front of him. When he saw the watch, he was slightly taken aback and said, "You actually still remember."
"How could I forget? I didn't expect you to get engaged so early. When I got the news, I almost didn't have time to make a decision. Luckily, I have a friend who owns a Rolex Datejust. When we were traveling abroad, we said in front of the Rolex store that whoever got engaged first would get the other a Rolex." Old Lin gave Jiang Zheyuan a deep look and then said.
Old Lin was a new face to Shao Wanwan. She hadn't paid much attention to him before, because Jiang Zheyuan knew so many people and the Jiang family's network of relationships was extremely complex.
But when Jiang Zheyuan pulled Lao Lin over to introduce him to Shao Wanwan, Shao Wanwan's lips curled into a smile that was harder to suppress than AK's.
In the book, Lao Lin always liked Jiang Zheyuan, but Jiang Zheyuan didn't know it. Moreover, Lao Lin never confessed his feelings. He suspected that he was sick and went abroad for treatment, but he tormented himself and never let Jiang Zheyuan see it in the slightest.
It can be described as an incredibly pure love story.
He maintained a very proper distance in his interactions with Jiang Zheyuan, never crossing the line.
In addition, the description of Lao Lin in the book is only about two chapters, so Shao Wanwan doesn't have a deep impression of Lao Lin.
When Shao Wanwan saw the lifelike Old Lin, she remembered the description of him in the book. He was shorter than Jiang Zheyuan from the first year of junior high school. The boy's strong competitive spirit made Old Lin vow to be taller than Jiang Zheyuan, but even in high school, he was still half a head shorter than Jiang Zheyuan.
So every time, Jiang Zheyuan could easily put his arm around his shoulder and pull him to his side.
Although given Jiang Zheyuan's personality, such incidents rarely occur in this area, every time one happens, his heart pounds like a drum.
Aside from having darker skin than Jiang Zheyuan, Lao Lin had thick eyebrows and big eyes. His classmates all said he looked like a porcelain doll, even more delicate than a girl. Every time, he would blush and then secretly look at Jiang Zheyuan sitting to his side and behind him.
Jiang Zheyuan is an exceptionally frank but also exceptionally aloof person. He is extremely tactful in his interactions with others, and even with very close friends, he rarely makes jokes or gossip. Therefore, no one dares to joke about him.
Especially later in the second year of high school, the whole class suddenly heard that Jiang Zheyuan was engaged to the daughter of his father's savior.
Old Lin became unusually taciturn.
He knew what he was thinking, but he never showed it at all.
Shao Wanwan knew that Jiang Zheyuan had absolutely no idea what Lao Lin was thinking. This secret was known only to her, the transmigrator of the book, which made her secretly quite pleased.
She thought she would never see Lao Lin again.
Later, people like Zhou Qiyu, who had been mentioned several times in the book, appeared. She had vaguely wondered if Lao Lin would appear, but she never expected it to be at their engagement banquet.
"Hello, I'm Zheyuan's fiancée, Shao Wanwan. It's a pleasure to meet you." Shao Wanwan extended her hand generously.
In fact, Lao Lin had known about Shao Wanwan for a long time.
How could the students at No. 1 Middle School not know Shao Wanwan? It's just that Shao Wanwan doesn't know her, because she doesn't seem to care much about Jiang Zheyuan. She never came to see Jiang Zheyuan when they were in school.
Old Lin looked intently at Shao Wanwan, his eyes filled with both inquiry and resignation.
He hadn't expected Shao Wanwan to grow up to be so beautiful and elegant. Her eyes were even starting to resemble Jiang Zheyuan's—those soft, captivatingly beautiful eyes.
As if betrayed, the painful thought of being a perfect match popped into Lao Lin's mind.
He blankly extended his hand and said, "Hello, I'm Lao Jiang's classmate from junior high and high school. Your wife is very beautiful."
Shao Wanwan smiled gently; she knew how difficult it was for Lao Lin to say those words.
Actually, he could have stayed in H City instead of going to Hai City, but he chose to completely cut off his thoughts of the place, knowing that distance was the best way to forget.
When he first arrived in Haishi, he tried to find out about Jiang Zheyuan every day. He joined their junior high and high school class group chats, and every time the group message notification sound rang, he reminded himself to check it. But Jiang Zheyuan never said a word.
Even the news of his engagement came from Gu Xiaohua, their high school's class monitor.
He came without telling him, just to give him the promise he made casually when they went abroad together.
"You keep Old Lin company and talk to him. Professor Jiang asked me to go over and help her distribute cakes to the guests. Aunt Li is too busy." With that, she left decisively.
We need to give Lao Lin time to say goodbye.
Jiang Zheyuan took a deep look at Shao Wanwan's back, and when he turned around, there was a smile on his lips.
"Are you happy?" Old Lin asked earnestly.
"Yes, I married the woman of my dreams," Jiang Zheyuan said confidently.
"I'm so happy for you," Old Lin said softly, his eyes slightly moist.
"Thank you, I'm so glad you came," Jiang Zheyuan said sincerely.
Old Lin said, "I'm also very happy to be here. Seeing that you married such a beautiful wife, I'm really envious! You and your wife can come to Haishi to visit me in the future. The night view of Haishi is beautiful, the spicy hot pot at our school is especially delicious, and the salted bamboo shoot soup that you like is even better than the one in Suzhou."
