Views:

"Baole, have you seen it? Chen Bing is shaking now. I heard that although he did not enter any Taoist academy after graduation, he became a federal employee in our Phoenix City by virtue of his family connections." Sitting next to Wang Baole. It was a short man with a crew cut, speaking in a low voice in Wang Baole's ear.

"It's pretty awesome." Wang Baole nodded. Seeing that the food was good, he didn't eat at noon, so he picked up his chopsticks and took a few bites.

Soon, when all the students who could come were present, the dinner table immediately became lively. The students joked with each other and talked about the past and embarrassing things in the basic school. From time to time, laughter could be heard.

Wang Baole also participated, but gradually he felt that something was wrong. Most of his classmates had not changed much from before, but there were still a few people who always used various topics to show off their achievements. This was Wang Baole felt very uncomfortable hearing this.

Especially Chen Bing, who was dressed in formal attire and looked very stylish. He was showing off his status as a federal employee, saying that he could secure a position in this winery. This was a status symbol, and he sometimes took out his voice ring. , kept transmitting the message, his tone was reprimanding, and he looked like he was very busy and powerful.

That's all. There is another classmate named Huang Gui who was admitted to the Shengchuan Taoist Temple in the Four Avenues. He sat there, looking like the leader of the crowd. He raised his wine glass from time to time, and he also said what he said. , he seems calm when talking to others, but in fact, every word he speaks shows his uniqueness.

But there were a few classmates around him who were willing to pursue him and flatter him from the side, so that this person gradually overshadowed Chen Bing at the dinner table.

If that was the case, Wang Baole would be uncomfortable at most, but soon, Huang Gui from Shengchuan Taoist Temple seemed to have drunk a little too much. At this moment, he slapped the table with emotion in his expression.

"Classmates, we haven't seen each other for a year, but we have changed a lot now. Du Min, you are more beautiful than before..." He said a lot, all with emotion. This tone made Wang Baole feel familiar after hearing it, and he couldn't help but look weird.

Seemingly noticing Wang Baole's expression, Huang Gui smiled.

"Everyone has changed a lot, but Baole, why are you still so fat?"

As soon as he said these words, several of the students who were admirers around him laughed, and other students also made fun of Wang Baole. As a result, even if Wang Baole had a temper, he couldn't express it and could only hold it depressedly. Chopsticks keep picking up vegetables.

Seeing this scene, Du Min smiled secretly in his heart. It was rare to see Wang Baole deflated.

Perhaps it was Du Min's dress today and her status in the school that made her attract so much attention here. At this moment, Huang Gui sighed and looked at Du Min.

"Du Min, I heard that you and Wang Baole were admitted to Piao Miao Taoist Academy, which is very good. Which department are you in now?"

"Alchemy system." Du Min said with a smile on his face.

"Alchemy Dao Department, if you have any questions about the Alchemy Dao Department in the future, you can send me a message. Let's have a class, and I will definitely help you." Huang Gui's eyes lit up when he heard about the Alchemy Dao Department, as if he had found a new one. Topic, laughed.

The classmate around him who was always chasing after him quickly spoke loudly at this moment.

"Students, don't you know? Student Huang Gui is not an ordinary student at Shengchuan Taoist Academy. He is the head of the grass and tree department of the Alchemy Department of Shengchuan Taoist Academy!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone around him was surprised. Although many people inside were not sure what the meaning of the school leader was, they felt that he looked very powerful when he heard the title.

Wang Baole snorted in his heart and looked at Huang Gui even more unpleasantly.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Huang Gui felt comfortable in his heart, but on the surface he laughed and waved his hands.

"Why are you talking about this? We are all classmates. Even if I am the leader, am I one level higher than other classmates? Zhou Xin, you have to punish yourself."

The classmate who was pursuing Huang Gui smiled and picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

"What the Headmaster said is, don't I also want to popularize the title of Headmaster to everyone, and also increase everyone's knowledge."

"You." Huang Gui smiled and shook his head silently. Zhou Xin coughed dryly and continued to speak.

"Students, the title of Head Student is not simple. You may not know it well. Let me tell you, Head Student. It is a department. In a certain school, the highest status that stands out from countless people is no longer the highest status. He is an ordinary student, but a disciple of the Master. This is the case in any Taoist academy. Du Min, Wang Baole, your Miao Miao Taoist Academy is also the same, right?"

Du Min's expression changed slightly, he quickly glanced at Wang Baole and nodded.

Wang Baole touched his nose, looked at Zhou Xin, then at Huang Gui, but said nothing.

Listening to Zhou Xin's introduction, the students at the dinner table took a deep breath after knowing the meaning of being the first student. They were all shocked. When they looked at Huang Gui, they were all shocked. Some even had admiration in their eyes and picked up their wine glasses. , began to toast Huang Gui.

Huang Gui responded with a smile, but only took a small sip each time. Soon when the atmosphere became more lively, his eyes fell on Wang Baole.

You must know that from the beginning to the end, Wang Baole did not toast him, which made Huang Gui unhappy in his heart, and now he spoke with a smile.

"Baole, I heard that you were admitted to Piao Miao Taoist Academy. How are you doing now?"

Before Wang Baole could speak, he waved his hand again.

"Forget it, I won't expose your scars. We are all classmates. You entered the Piaomiao Taoist Academy just after pressing the deadline. You are probably still studying hard now. Which department are you in?"

"Magical Weapon Department!" Wang Baole felt that his temper was about to rise, and he spoke angrily at this moment.

"The magic weapon system is not an ordinary system. It is difficult. But as long as you persist, you will still have a bright future in the future. It would be great if you choose the alchemy system. I can still help you, although I can't let you enter. You may be among the top 100 in the school, but you can still achieve the top 1,000." Huang Gui didn't care about Wang Baole's tone. In his opinion, the only person worth making friends with at this gathering was Du Min. Alone.

This was because Du Min had become more beautiful. As for the others, Huang Gui felt that he had opened a distance from them that they could not cross in their lifetime.

While Huang Gui was lamenting and boasting, Wang Baole became more and more annoyed. If they were not all classmates, he would have taken action long ago in the Taoist temple. When he was feeling depressed, he noticed Du Min looking at him, his expression With teasing, Wang Baole glared directly at him.

Seeing Wang Baole's expression, Du Min felt very comfortable in her heart. She was in a happy mood at the moment. When she looked away and looked at Huang Gui, she smiled sweetly.

"Classmate Huang Gui is so right!"

Seeing that he had been recognized by Du Min, Huang Gui was very happy. He was even more talkative than before, talking about his experience in Shengchuan Taoist Temple, and his intention to show off became more and more obvious every time.

Wang Baole was already impatient and missed Liu Daobin in his heart. This time was just a class reunion. Liu Daobin and others were not classmates in the same basic school as him. Otherwise, Wang Baole thought that with Liu Daobin here and telling his identity from his mouth, everything would be perfect. .

Otherwise, if he said it himself, he would be no different from Huang Gui. Such words should be said by others. So feeling a little depressed, Wang Baole patted his belly and planned to get up and leave first.

At this moment, in the elegant winery hall, there was a middle-aged man with a tall and straight body, bright eyes, and a majestic look. He seemed to be in a high position. He was accompanied by his entourage and the waiters of the winery. , walked through the lobby, preparing to go to the private room inside the winery.

But when he passed by Wang Baole and others' dining table, he glanced over and let out a light sigh. He stopped and looked at Wang Baole carefully a few more times. A smile suddenly filled his face. He walked a few steps and walked directly into the room where Wang Baole and his classmates were sitting. At the party table.

There were many people following him. They were surprised at the moment, but they quickly followed behind the middle-aged man. Their appearance immediately attracted the attention of everyone at the dinner table.

Chen Bing, who became a federal employee, changed his expression and stood up quickly. Everyone around him, including Wang Baole, also raised their heads in surprise. It was the arrival of this middle-aged man. His aura was obviously different. He looked like a big shot at first glance. .

The moment they looked at it, the middle-aged man's hearty laughter came out.

"It's classmate Baole, haha. I'm Dao Bin's father. I heard from our Dao Bin that you helped him a lot in school and helped him get admitted to the Discipline Department of the college. Uncle, thank you." The young man was Liu Daobin's father, the deputy city lord of Phoenix City. He had seen Wang Baole's photo from Liu Daobin and now stepped forward to hold Wang Baole's hand with a very kind smile.

"Is it City Lord Liu?" Wang Baole was stunned for a moment and then greeted him with a smile.

"If you are a city lord who is not a city lord, please call me uncle. My uncle has invited me to this meal. Baole, our Daobin will be left to you. If he disobeys, feel free to reprimand him!" Liu Daobin's father was extremely enthusiastic. Deputy General Wang Baole regarded him as his own nephew, and there was even a trace of politeness in his enthusiasm.

This scene immediately shocked the followers behind him. When they looked at Wang Baole, they all speculated on his identity and background.

Soon, Liu Daobin's father picked up the wine glass and toasted to everyone at the dinner table. Chen Bing was so excited that he quickly paid a visit. After noticing that the other party was a federal employee, Liu Daobin's father nodded, ignored him, and had a laugh with Wang Baole before leaving.

Everyone at the dinner table opened their eyes wide at this moment. After all, Wang Baole's previous words revealed the identity of the other party, and Chen Bing's actions also proved this, so they all fell silent. When they looked at Wang Baole, All with hesitation.

It was obviously Wang Baole, who had kept a low profile from beginning to end. This moment gave them great shock and mystery.
