At this time, the canteen of No.1 Middle School did not have a card swiping system. Each window was also contracted by individuals. They paid directly to get food. After the meal, they found a corner seat and sat down. Because school had just started, most new students would still come to the cafeteria to eat, so the cafeteria was basically full. Unlike most of the seniors who knew where the food was delicious, where the prices were reasonable, and where the canteen had eaten flies before…
The noisy cafeteria and the buzzing large rotating fan, white shirts and black sweatpants, this was the high school life of most students...
As soon as they sat down, Liu Xiaomei pointed at the people who had just entered the door and said softly," Did you see that? That person was Xu Jian, a sophomore. The one on the left was his buddy Kevin. The one on his right was Su Xi, who was the top scorer of the middle school examination like Ziqing. The one next to him was Liu Fei and Zhang Yuan, both of whom were promoted from the middle school department of No.1 Middle School. What do you think? Handsome, right?"
Liu Ye looked at the few people he was pointing at and realized that two of them were people she had seen the last time, so she asked in a daze," How do you know so much? Do you know them?"
Liu Xiaomei smiled smugly and showed a look that said," You don't understand. I was also promoted from the middle school of No.1 Middle School. What is there that I don't know about?”
Everyone rolled their eyes.
Zhang Yuan's eyes were sharp. He saw that there were empty seats for Wang Lele, Ai Ziqing, and the others. He quickly ran over to greet them. Su Xi, Xu Jian, and the others were stunned for a moment before they followed him.
Su Xi was wearing a white collared shirt and black casual pants today. It was a very ordinary set of clothes, but it looked very stylish on him.
Liu Fei, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was wearing a white tunic suit with his collar slightly open. Ziqing was speechless. Wasn't he hot?
Xu Jian and Kevin were wearing black basketball jerseys, and there were still sweat on their foreheads. Both of them were over 180 centimeters tall and had a tall build. They were both handsome men who were rarely seen, but the former was slightly calm and cold, while the latter was a little cool. Ai Ziqing admired the handsome man and did not forget to comment in her heart.
Yawning out of boredom, Zhang Yuan ran over and sat beside Ai Ziqing. He wiped his sweat with his clothes and grinned." It's so hot!" This damn weather, there are so many people in the canteen, how are we going to eat?”As he said that, he directly picked up the chicken drumstick from Ziqing's bowl and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ziqing helplessly held her forehead. Whose family did this clown belong to?
Wang Lele had a special mind. When Zhang Yuan's eyes caught sight of her plate, she hurriedly covered it tightly without a gap! Ai Ziqing was secretly impressed.
Liu Fei, Su Xi, and the others also sat down. Liu Fei smiled at Zi Qing and said," How's the new semester? Which class will you be assigned to?"
"Year one and two, not bad. You guys also came to the cafeteria to eat?”Ziqing nodded and asked. They could be considered as seniors in No.1 Middle School. In Ziqing's previous life, she would not go to the canteen to eat twice a year. Not to mention these young masters.
"Yes, it's troublesome to go out and eat here often. Actually, the food in No.1 Middle School is not bad.”Liu Fei laughed as he looked at Ai Ziqing, whose drumstick was being exploited by Zhang Yuan. He didn't forget to introduce Ai Ziqing and Wang Lele," This is Xu Jian, Kevin.”
The few of them simply nodded as a form of greeting. Liu Fei did not introduce them in detail, presumably because he did not want them to have any interactions.
Ai Ziqing briefly introduced the people around her before burying her head in her meal. After school, she still had to practice shooting with Blackie. Of course, she had to replenish her strength.
Liu Xiaomei was so shocked that her mouth was wide open and her cheeks were red. She felt that she was an idiot just now. How could she brag about her friend? He might as well kill himself! Zhang Yuan Yuan was unusually excited and kept talking about this and that. Ai Ziqing, on the other hand, felt as if her eyes were filled with Zhang Yuanyuan's mouth opening and closing, giving her an abnormal headache. Although she also liked to look at handsome men, she didn't want to look like she had tied firecrackers to her mouth, right?
Zhang Yuan Yuan seemed to be particularly interested in the boys, but she was also a little reserved, so she kept looking for all kinds of interesting stories to tell Ai Ziqing and the others. Her eyes occasionally glanced at the boys, and when the boys talked to her, she became even more enthusiastic. Unfortunately, other than Zhang Yuan who knew how to accommodate the beautiful girls, the others either smiled and listened, or ate with a dead fish face.
Just as Zi Qing finished eating and was about to leave, there was a loud bang at the table, which startled everyone. Then, a pleasant female voice sounded," Why didn't you wait for me to eat? They are?"
Ai Ziqing looked up and saw that it was the violent woman from the morning, Xue Mei. She was looking at the girls with a cold gaze, but she was talking to Xu Jian.
Xu Jian was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said," I'm having dinner with a few friends. What's the matter, Miss Xue?"”His expression was filled with impatience.
" You..." Xue Mei's face changed. She paused but didn't get angry. Instead, she smiled and said," I've told you many times to call me Meimei. Why can't you remember?" It's my birthday this weekend. I'm going to have a party. Don't forget to be there.”
Before Xu Jian could refuse, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said," By the way, my father will talk to Uncle Xu about that project in two days.”
Hearing this, Xu Jiangang swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He nodded slightly and smiled." Help me send my regards to Uncle Xue. I'll be there for Miss Xue's birthday."”
Only then did Xue Mei reveal a satisfied smile. She turned to Su Xi and the others and said," Young Master Su, you must participate too?”
After saying that, he looked up at the girls, especially Zhang Yuanyuan, who was the happiest. He raised the corners of his mouth and said," Since everyone knows each other, come to the gathering this weekend!”
Xue Mei felt disdain in her heart. She had seen many girls who wanted to get close to rich men. She invited them to the party because she wanted them to experience the difference between rich and poor so that they could stop having unrealistic thoughts.
After seeing Zhang Yuan Yuan nod her head in a daze under her gaze, Xue Mei crossed her arms and walked away arrogantly in her high heels, leaving everyone looking at each other.
Xu Jian's father was the deputy secretary of the provincial committee, Xu Yandong, and the second-in-command of Liao Province. Xue Mei's father was the richest man in Yang City, Xue Bin!
Xu Jian tolerated Xue Mei not because he was afraid of her. After all, there was a difference in status between officials and businessmen.
His forbearance was because Xu Yandong had been racking his brains for the state-owned enterprise's individual contracting project recently, and he urgently needed Xue Bin's cooperation to increase his political achievements!
Since 1984, when the "** Central Committee's Decision on the Financial Reforms " was implemented, the state-owned enterprises had changed to a model where they could be contracted by individuals and be responsible for their own profits and losses. This model had indeed reached an economic level, but as time passed, this model gradually revealed its drawbacks. So far, it had declined to a low point. If they could get Xue Bin's support and cooperation in Liao Province, they could once again set off a wave and respond to the call of the country, adding a strong color to their political achievements.
As for why he was so eager to add political achievements, it could be traced back to this year's provincial party secretary election!
Xu Yandong was nearly forty years old and was in his prime. He had already reached the political height of the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. The old Secretary was already old and would be transferred to the Beijing People's Congress this year. Xu Yandong had been preparing for the position of the Provincial Party Committee Secretary for a long time, but Governor Zhou Kang was a big rival for him!
There was news from above that Zhou Kang's chances of winning the election were very high, so Xu Yandong had no choice but to make a big fuss about his political achievements at this critical moment in hopes of winning the election.
As his son, Xu Jian naturally knew what kind of problem his father was in this time, so he was polite to Xue Mei, who had never paid attention to him before.
Xue Mei had met him at a party two years ago and had stuck to him ever since. Even if he didn't like this girl, he would still treat her politely. However, the comments and rumors about her in the circle really made people feel bad about her.
Not only was she rude, arrogant, unreasonable, and bullying, but she was also ambiguous with many men. Even after she expressed her feelings for him, she was still like this. He was extremely impatient with such a woman pestering him!
Of course, Ai Ziqing didn't know about these things. If she knew, she would have wiped her mouth after dinner and told him," Bro, your father can't be the provincial party secretary. His life is even in danger. Don't worry about it." I've divined Zhou Kang's fortune. He's destined to succeed in the election and then cause trouble!”
Ai Ziqing was focused on eating. She didn't like Xue Mei from the start, but she didn't feel disgusted. After all, it had nothing to do with her.
In her previous life, he and a rich girl like her were from two different worlds. They would not have any interactions at all. She had her own life, whether it was domineering or spoiled and willful.
Wang Lele introduced Xu Jian and Xue Mei in a low voice. At this time, Liu Fei whispered,"If Ziqing doesn't like it, don't go on Saturday."”This sentence made Xu Jian and the others size up Ai Ziqing curiously.
Just as she was about to agree, her hand was gently held by Zhang Yuan Yuan. She turned around and saw her pouting and aggrieved look. Ziqing felt a little funny. Who asked you to be infatuated?
He thought about it and decided that he could cancel Saturday's training. Su Xi and the others were his friends. It would be inappropriate for Zhang Yuanyuan to go alone. Although this matter had nothing to do with him, they were still friends. Besides, it was not a big deal. There was no need to pretend that it had nothing to do with him to show his indifference.
"Anyway, I have nothing to do. I'll go with you. You won't be unwelcome, right?”Ziqing chuckled.
"Of course you're welcome. I'll pick you up on Saturday. We'll go together.”Su Xi thought for a moment and said.
"Well, whatever. I don't know where it is anyway.”Ai Ziqing replied casually. She knew that Su Xi was probably worried that she wouldn't be used to such gatherings and would feel awkward, so she suggested accompanying her.
Su Xi's reaction piqued Xu Jian and Kevin's curiosity. Ai Ziqing's attire was extremely ordinary, and her looks could only be considered delicate and pretty. However, there were quite a few pretty girls. Moreover, this girl did not seem to be from their circle. In addition, they were quite familiar with Su Xi and Liu Fei's personalities. They could not figure out why the two of them took such good care of such a girl.
After dinner, on the way back, Zhang Yuan Yuan pulled her hair in regret." Oh no, how did I provoke this fiend!" He often talked about her and other girls, but he did not expect to become the main character today!”
Liu Xiaomei also bit her lip anxiously. She was worried that Xue Mei would deal with Zhang Yuanyuan. After all, the two of them had graduated from junior high school together. Their families were considered rich, but they were worlds apart from these people with political backgrounds.
"It's okay. She's just going to a gathering. She won't make things difficult for you regardless of her status. She just wanted to let you women who 'climbed up the social ladder' in her eyes see her life and then retreat.”Wang Lele pursed her lips and said. It wasn't a big deal. Was there a need to be afraid?
However, Liu Xiaomei and Liu Xiaomei, who had heard about Xue Mei's deeds since junior high school, were undoubtedly very anxious to offend Xue Mei.
Especially in the dark side of the school, girls were sometimes scarier than boys. Xue Mei used to bring people to stop students who made her angry. Once, she even took a nude photo of a girl to threaten them. In the end, the matter was blown up and suppressed by the school.
