Chapter 20 - Reunion Party (1/2)

Zhang Jun swung his sore arm and grinned:” It is tired picking up money. When I am selecting stones today, I almost fainted.”

Lin Xian glanced at him: “It is you who works the hardest among all the people in the world. You’ve made a major contribution to our work.” Then she smiled: “It is getting late today. You will attend the student’s reunion tomorrow. So let us return to the hotel.”

Then they returned to the hotel for a rest.

Zhang Jun was so tired that he needed to relieve the fatigue through the golden light from his left eye. When he aimed the light on his arm, he would feel extremely comfortable as it penetrated through his muscles, bones and nerves.

Bathing in the golden light, he x-rayed the marked changes happening in his arm, thinking of one possibility: “The reason why everyone is enduring the suffering of birth, old age, sickness and death is the failure of organ and system. If my body could bathe in the golden light every day, will I have a robust body immune from illness?

Since he did not completely understand the characteristics of the golden light, he spent half of the night basking in it. He X-rayed his legs and body, especially his private parts in the hope that it would bring surprises to him.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t see his head and neck, thus making it impossible to strengthen those parts.

Although Zhang Jun slept late last night, he did not feel tired at all in the morning of the following day. Instead, he was quite vigorous.

He had breakfast with Lin Xian and they chatted with each other about opening the jewelry shop. It was not until 10:00 that they went to a five-star hotel where the student reunion was held. It was the right time for them to go there since the schedule time for the reunion party was 11:00.

The party was held in a presidential suite on the tenth floor of the hotel. Inside the room sat more than ten young people who all graduated from Dong Hai University and most of them were Zhang Jun’s classmates. They were circling around Chen Fusheng and Ye Qian, flattering them in jealousy.

“Qianqian, Fusheng is the popular one who is tall, rich and handsome in our university. We are really jealous of you.” A plump lady wearing make-up with an ordinary appearance said loudly.

Her vanity being satisfied with others’ compliments, Ye Qian pretended to be calm: “Just so so. Fusheng is engaged in too much social activities that he has little time to spend with me every day.”

“A capable man will surely attend more parties, which also reflects their capabilities.” That girl continued flattering her.

Ye Qian smiled faintly: “Hu Xiaohui, why don’t we talk about you? I hear you are going to marry a Japanese, am I right?

That girl felt encouraged, gloating, she said: “Yes, he is a software engineer from Japan. He is preparing our wedding and we are going to marry next year.”

Beside her was a tall man who looked slow-itted. After hearing what she said, he gave her a despised look and mocked her: “Your boyfriend is just Kamebu Hachirō with bow legs and a height of 1.5 meters. He studies in Tokyo and his parents are all farmers. Are you going to be a farmer too?”

Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Hu Xiaohui was furious with her eyes wide open: “Ma Baorui, you are jealous of him! Even if his parents are Japanese farmers and he is short, he is much better than you poor wretch! I was so blind that I fell in love with you. Pooh!”

Ma Baorui flushed angrily and didn’t utter a word.

Feeling the unusual atmosphere, others were trying to persuade them.                     They had a romantic relationship when they were college students, but Hu Xiaohui ended up turning back on him and falling in love with an international student named Kamebu Hachirō from Japan.

With that thing rankled in his mind, Ma Baorui regarded it as a burning shame, which led to their confrontation.

Since others couldn’t dissuade Hu Xiaohui, she continued cursing Ma Baorui for a while with malicious remarks. All of a sudden, her eyes roamed around the room and fell upon Liu Ting.

Liu Ting looked elegant and graceful, standing there and listening to others’ conversation. When she found that Hu Xiaohui was looking over here, she had a bad feeling about it.

As expected, Lin Xiaohui shouted: “Ma Baorui, aren’t Liu Ting and Ye Qian living a happy life now? If they married Zhang Jun, the poor second generation, could they have a life as decent as it does now?

Ma Baorui shivered with anger, pointing at Hu Xiaohui: “You…you…” Then he stomped his feet and left away, and others couldn’t stop him.

When Zhang Jun and Lin Xian walked into the suite right at that moment, they ran across Ma Baorui who was surprised when seeing Zhang Jun, So he stopped and said: “Zhang Jun!”

“Ma Baorui! You’ve come so early.” Zhang Jun was also surprised. They used to be roommates who got on well with each other.

But Ma Baorui sighed with his head lowered. He looked pale and said: “Zhang Jun, I do not like this party and I will leave away.”

Zhang Jun took his arm and gave Hu Xiaohui a look before talking to him flatly: “Are you disgusted by that Japanese slave?”

Zhang Jun knew that Hu Xiaohui would marry Kamebu Hachirō. Being humble to her Japanese boyfriend, Hu Xiaohui even gave him an apologetic smile after being slapped by him in the face. Zhang Jun and others were ashamed of her behavior and gave her a nickname of Japanese slave.

Ma Baorui nodded: “Zhang Jun, that bitch also used you as an example, saying that Ye Qian and Liu Ting are wise not to choose you. Fuck that bitch!”

Zhang Jun frowned. This woman was a bitch indeed, pulling others into her argument. He said in a cold voice, “Looks like the Japanese slave is walking all over you. If you leave, isn’t this what she wants? Stay with me and ignore her.”

Ma Baorui thought it was so embarrassing to just leave right away, so he nodded.

While Zhang Jun introduced Lin Xian, Ma Baorui was so surprised that Zhang Jun could pick up such a gorgeous girl.
