Chapter 286 Strangers
Chapter 286 Stranger
Jiang Sheng finally went to the party.
The party was scheduled at a KTV, and Jiang Sheng arrived early as a habit. When she arrived, there were only a few classmates in the box.
Sitting on the sofa was a boy wearing a gray sweatshirt, facing her sideways.
When Jiang Jingyi saw Jiang Jingyi, Jiang Sheng's heart trembled, and the memories of middle school came back one after another, and they were incredibly clear.
In fact, Jiang Jingyi's appearance is not superior. At first glance, he is a bit hunchbacked. But for some reason, Jiang Sheng remembers him as good-looking.
When she was sitting behind the table, Jiang Jingyi was not hunched over. He even kept his back straight whether he was walking or sitting. Most of the 17 or 18-year-old boys were lazy and often read with their backs hunched over, but his upright posture seemed
It's different.
Moreover, in the hot weather at the end of spring, Jiang Jingyi always wrapped himself tightly and refused to show anything except his hands and face.
Some people even half-jokingly said that he went crazy because he didn't do well in the exam.
Suddenly, someone joked: "Hey, our heroine is here."
Jiang Jingyi turned his head and saw her, paused for a moment, and then waved: "Jiang Sheng."
Jiang Sheng came to his senses, walked over and said with a smile: "Long time no see."
"Long time no see, how about a visit?" Jiang Jingyi raised his wine glass.
Jiang Sheng smiled slightly: "I don't drink."
"...I didn't think it through well." Translator Jiang Jing paused.
He put the wine glass on one side and said with a smile: "Sit down, you came early, there are still many people who haven't arrived yet."
A boy next to Jiang Jingyi winked: "Jingyi, it took a long time for me to get here, but why are you such a gentleman?"
Jiang Jingyi glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense!"
The boy said carelessly: "You were a hero at the party and saved so many drinks for our Duan Hua, but you still haven't won her heart. If you don't hurry up now, it's time for the famous beauty to have her own wife."
Jiang Jingyi's expression seemed to change when he mentioned this, and he quickly explained to Jiang Sheng: "They are joking, don't mind."
Jiang Sheng had a formulaic polite smile on his face: "No, I should have thanked you."
She thought that when she saw Jiang Jingyi again, she would at least have some emotional fluctuations, but it didn't seem to happen. And at this moment, even though she had just arrived, she already wanted to go back.
"Jiang Sheng!"
Suddenly he heard someone calling him, Jiang Sheng turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Xie Yihan.
Xie Yihan was wearing a long white dress and carrying a gold chain bag. She immediately smiled when she came in: "There are so many people, I'm late."
Then a male classmate whistled: "Hey, who is this? We haven't seen her for just a few years and she's so beautiful that you can't even recognize her."
The male classmate had his hair cut, and he had a very authentic bald head. There was no one with this look in the class before. To be honest, Xie Yihan didn’t recognize him either, but she still said in surprise: "You are not that..."
The man took it and said, "I am Li Xianxiao. Beautiful ladies and noble people often forget things."
Xie Yihan nodded seriously: "Yes, Li Xianxiao! Oops - I have too many things to do and forget about noble people. I can't calm down in my head. I get weird."
"You look very proud of yourself. Where are you planning to go after graduation?"
Li Xianxiao laughed and said modestly: "No, I just received an offer from a Fortune 500 company."
Xie Yihan gave a thumbs up: "I haven't even found a company for my internship yet."
"Just wait for me to establish a foothold, and then I can tell the company to recruit you. It's just a matter of words."
"Then forget it, I'm afraid that I will bring down your company."
Xie Yihan has always been able to cope with these situations easily. After socializing, she pulled Jiang Sheng aside and complained in a low voice: "Boys really can't get fat. How long have they been now? I'm almost like a middle-aged uncle."
"Especially Jiang Jingyi, after staying abroad for a few years, he feels like a completely different person."
Jiang Sheng couldn't help laughing: "Jiang Jingyi is not fat either."
"It seems so." Xie Yihan glanced at Jiang Jingyi again, "But it's just different from before."
She paused, then suddenly remembered that Jiang Jingyi was having a treat today, so she sneered twice.
Jiang Sheng only said: "Everyone will grow up."
Soon all the students who could come had arrived, and Jiang Jingyi was pushed over by his classmates to toast Jiang Sheng.
Li Xianxiao pointed at Jiang Jingyi and gave a thumbs up: "Brother Jiang will inherit the family business when he comes back from studying abroad. He is not comparable to us."
"If anything happens in the future, I have to ask Brother Jiang to take care of me."
"Don't say that." Jiang Jingyi seemed a little embarrassed, "We are all classmates. If I can help, I will naturally help."
Li Xianxiao laughed: "I remember this sentence."
"Jiang Sheng, the young masters of the Jiang family have come to toast you in person. You won't be so disrespectful, right?"
Jiang Jingyi still held two glasses of wine in his hand, facing Jiang Sheng, and seemed to be avoiding her gaze.
Xie Yihan's eyes widened.
No, men really change easily.
The man who wanted to stop all Jiang Sheng's wine after the meal was over, actually drank it in Jiang Sheng's turn?!
The amber liquid in the goblet shone beautifully under the lamp, but Jiang Sheng's eyes didn't even fall on it, only looking at the person in front of him.
Her smile was still polite: "I told you not to drink."
"I'll drink, I'll drink, you can just drink." Hearing this, Jiang Jingyi hurriedly put the wine aside and explained, "It's been a long time since we last seen each other, so I'd like to toast you and wish you the best."
Someone immediately started shouting: "We are all adults, so stop pretending. What's the point of drinking?"
"Or are you saying that the two ladies don't give us face?"
"Yes, toasting, toasting, how can it be considered 'toasting' without wine?" Li Xianxiao agreed, with an ambiguous tone.
"It's not easy for us to get together after so many years. If you want to have fun, just have fun - they say that drunkenness makes people cowardly, and drunken people tell the truth. After drunkenness..."
They looked at each other and laughed.
Xie Yihan's face darkened, and she stood in front of Jiang Sheng: "I want to drink you, what do you mean?! Could it be that God has spread wisdom all over the world, but just gave you an umbrella?"
"I also asked you to sincerely say that we should get together - how can you use the messy things you have learned in society among your classmates?"
Li Xianxiao didn't expect her to fall out so easily. He pointed at Xie Yihan with wide eyes: "You..."
"What are you?!" Xie Yihan said impatiently, "Don't yell at me. I was scared by dogs when I was a child."
Li Xianxiao was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe.
Maybe it was because the ceiling of the ktv was a little low and the atmosphere in the box was depressing. Jiang Sheng also felt a little short of breath. She pulled Xie Yihan to stand up: "Forget it, let's go."
No one expected that they would become angry and looked at each other.
Jiang Jingyi hurriedly stopped him, speaking incoherently: "I definitely didn't mean that. I just said that I don't know how you have been in these years. I want to toast you. It doesn't matter whether you drink or not! It's hard for everyone.
Let’s get together once, I don’t know when the next time will be.”
Jiang Sheng curled her lips and spoke in a distant, yet polite tone: "I am indeed feeling a little unwell. Please let Yihan go back with me first."
"It's hard work organizing this party. You guys have fun, don't let us ruin the fun."
Jiang Jingyi opened his mouth: "But..." I organized it just for you.
Jiang Sheng didn't care what he thought, he took Xie Yihan and left, leaving everyone behind.
When everyone saw Jiang Jingyi's expression, they urged him: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Go chase him."
Jiang Jingyi suddenly realized, picked up his coat from the sofa and hurried out.
It's past eight o'clock in the evening, the breeze is blowing, and the early summer night is still a bit cool, but the neon lights on the street are flashing, so it doesn't look deserted.
Xie Yihan didn't forget to complain while walking: "They're all talking about the same thing. It's even more disgusting than the entertainment at my last internship company."
After not seeing each other for three or four years, everything turned upside down.
Jiang Sheng patted her: "Just leave if you don't like it."
In fact, I didn't say anything too extreme after all.
Xie Yihan was still aggrieved. She poked the screen with her fingers as if poking someone: "Wait, I'll take a taxi to take you home!"
They walked to a streetlight to wait for the Didi car. As soon as they arrived, they heard someone running next to them. Jiang Jingyi ran a little hastily, holding his knees with his hands, and was out of breath before he even spoke: "You guys, wait...
"
In fact, Jiang Jingyi didn't say anything bad, but he organized the party and he was the one who came to toast. Xie Yihan couldn't help but get angry: "What else are you doing here?!"
Fortunately, she used to be Jiang Jingyi and Jiang Sheng’s number one cp fan!
"I..." Jiang Jingyi quickly looked at Jiang Sheng.
The girl under the streetlight had a clean ponytail, some broken hair on her forehead glowed warmly under the light, and her smooth skin was flawless except for a mole on her right cheek.
Jiang Jingyi was a little stunned for a moment. It wasn't until Jiang Sheng's brows furrowed that he suddenly blurted out: "Jiang Sheng, I have something to tell you!"
