Chapter 128 Hurtful Words (2/2)
”Wtf? Brother Lei, are you crazy? Are you so free to go all the way to Shanghai to be a chauffeur? Stay in Xi'an, the few of us will try to find some work for you. No matter what, it will definitely be more enjoyable than working in Shanghai.” Zhao Xuan lectured. This man spoke fluent coarse language and he liked to talk bad behind others' back. Today, he worked in construction by relying on his family. His net worth amounted up to millions and he drove around a sissy blue Maserati and picked up girls all day round. So among the few of them, he was considered to be alike to Wu Hao, and they also had business dealings.
Wu Hao echoed, ”Our soldier goes all the way to Shanghai to drive people around instead of staying in the military. I really don't know what you're thinking. I say, Brother Lei, how much do they pay you each month? I'll give you double. Why not you come and work for me? I'm also short of a chauffeur. I'm going to fire mine soon, He's so clumsy and his skills cannot be compared to yours.”
In the past, Wu Hao and Zhao Xuan always followed behind Qin Sheng and Hao Lei and flattered them. Now that they had entered the society, with the addition of their families' resources, they were more than getting by. They no longer paid attention to people like Hao Lei and Meng Zhe and speak with no respect. More importantly, they flaunt their achievements every now and then.
This sentence made Hao Lei very uncomfortable, but he was patient and said, ”I don't have that kind of luck, let's talk about it when I really cannot take it anymore.”
”Why isn't this Qin Sheng coming? He's making all of us wait for so long...what a big shot.” Wu Hao lifted up his wrist and looked at the time. He deliberately showed off his Glashütte watch and ambiguously said.
Zhao Xuan smiled with thinned eyes, ”What do you think? He is a genius that scored big beauty Su, of course he's a big shot. Did you think that he's so vulgar like you?”
”Oh right, Hao Lei, did you meet Su Qin in Shanghai?” Wu Hao took the initiative and asked.
Hao Lei honestly answered, ”I did.”
”Did you see Su Qin after Qin Sheng came back?” Wu Hao continued to ask.
Hao Lei casually answered, ”I did.”
”Oh god, are they back together again?” Zhao Xuan exclaimed in surprise. He then turned to Wu Hao and said, ”Old Wu, I don't think you have a chance!”
”That's not necessarily true. It's a fair competition, I might just win the trophy back.” Wu Hao disapprovingly said.
Meng Zhe had long gotten used to how Wu Hao and Zhao Xuan talked. He concentrated on chatting with his wife via his phone. His wife clung onto him a lot. They were already engaged, yet they were still living in the hot phase period.
Zhao Xuan probed, ”Brother Lei, you and Qin Sheng are both in Shanghai, what is he doing now? Is he doing really well? Back then he was the genius among us, all the teachers said that he had a bright future ahead.”
Actually, Wu Hao and Zhao Xuan had found out some stuff from Meng Zhe, like how Qin Sheng's foster father Lin Yi was now imprisoned. If it was in the past, Qin Sheng could be living a better life than them, but that might not necessarily be the case now. For example, Qin Sheng seemed to be starting from zero in Shanghai, otherwise, Hao Lei would not just be a chauffeur.
”Ask him yourselves later.” Hao Lei was too lazy to entertain them.
Meng Zhe looked up at Wu Hao and Zhao Xuan and snorted, ”You guys really have nothing to do.”
At this moment, a waiter pushed the door open and walked in with Qin Sheng. He lightly smiled and apologized, ”Sorry I'm late.”
Meng Zhe, Hao Lei and the rest all stood up one after another. Wu Hao glanced at Zhao Xuan and exaggeratively exclaimed, ”Oh my, who is this! Isn't this our genius? We haven't met for two years and I almost can't recognize you.”
Zhao Xuan laughed, ”Who do you think you are? He can't even be bothered to contact you. The both of us are only here today all thanks to Brother Lei and Lao Meng.”
”You're right.” Wu Hao sighed.
Hearing the two's conversation, Qin Sheng's gaze changed slightly. Some people had changed a long time ago, the knife hidden in their words was really heart-wrenching.
Hao Lei also felt extremely uncomfortable. Actually, he understood fully why Wu Hao and Hao Lei wanted to meet Qin Sheng, and why they coincidentally did not turn up when Qin Sheng called them the last time. Actually, they only wanted to see how Qin Sheng was doing recently, if he was having a worse time than them. If that was the case, they would probably tease as much as they could. If Qin Sheng was having a better life than them, then this plan would be useless. They would definitely try to catch up with him and reminisce about their past.
Men were so despicable.
