“What? The useless son-in-law of the Tang family?”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression froze. They hadn’t expected that the most formidable person from their class back then would end up like this, becoming a live-in son-in-law, being trampled underfoot, which was utterly disgraceful.
Instantly, everyone’s gaze towards Lu Yang shifted from initial doubt to disdain, disgust, and disappointment…
“Lu Yang?”
“Can you not sit here?”
A girl in the class sitting next to Lu Yang immediately asked with a pout.
“Is anyone sitting here?”
Lu Yang looked at the girl and asked coldly.
“No!”
“I don’t want you sitting next to me. Look at you, what are you wearing, it’s all messy, and you even smell!”
The girl said coldly, covering her nose.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s gaze turned to Lu Yang, and then they burst into laughter. Several girls around them had looks of utter disdain and contempt in their eyes.
Lu Yang shook his head helplessly. After three years, his classmates had all become like this, which made Lu Yang feel a little disheartened.
“That’s enough from you all, you’re classmates. Do you have to speak so maliciously? It’s just that his clothes are a bit old. We’re all old classmates, let’s not make things so awkward!”
The one speaking was Lin Xue, a girl who had been quite close to Lu Yang in university. She was pure and beautiful, the type who looked better the more you looked at her. Lu Yang remembered that Lin Xue was his deskmate and they had been very close.
It was just that after graduation, they had lost contact.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Lin Xue stood up to speak up for Lu Yang, which warmed Lu Yang’s heart.
“Old classmate, does this kind of trash deserve to be called our old classmate? It’s embarrassing to even say it!”
“A man who reaches this point might as well be dead. He’s living worse than a dog!”
“I heard that he has no standing in the Tang family, anyone can step on him, and his mother-in-law is already working to kick him out. Once he leaves the Tang family, this trash will be even more useless!”
“…”
Back in university, Lu Yang often helped his classmates, but now, no one remembered Lu Yang’s kindness. They were all kicking him while he was down.
Seeing this, Lin Xue felt a little sad. Her company was currently hiring security guards. After the class reunion ended, Lin Xue planned to talk to Lu Yang about it, suggesting he start from the bottom.
“Lu Yang, from now on, don’t participate in our class activities, lest you bring shame to us!”
Zhang Kunhao said mockingly to Lu Yang, then turned his gaze to Song Nuan.
“Song goddess, this hotel is co-owned by my cousin and others. Speaking of my cousin, I believe Song goddess must have heard of him. He is from the Lin family in Jiangbei City, named Lin Yaoguang, and he is related to your group’s CEO, Lin Guoxiong!”
“Today, at my cousin’s hotel, whatever extra drinks or food you want, feel free to order. Don’t be afraid of the cost, I’ll cover all the extra expenses!”
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped again. They thought Zhang Kunhao was doing well now, but they didn’t expect him to have such an impressive cousin. This five-star hotel was even his investment. He was truly a representative of successful youth.
Everyone looked at Zhang Kunhao with renewed admiration.
Especially Song Nuan, after hearing Zhang Kunhao’s words, her eyes instantly lit up.
If she could use Zhang Kunhao to curry favor with Mr. Lin, it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her.
Just as everyone was in high spirits, the bride and groom also came to toast.
“Oh my, congratulations Xiaoyuan! You’ve married so well, it’s enviable!”
“Yes, I heard Xiaoyuan’s husband is a second-generation rich with billions in assets. He’s incredibly impressive!”
“Xiaoyuan, you’re amazing, marrying into a wealthy family! I wish you a long and happy life together, and many children!”
“Blessings, blessings!”
“…”
All the classmates offered their blessings and envy.
“Thank you everyone. Since you are Xiaoyuan’s friends, you are my friends. If you need anything in the future, just ask. Enjoy yourselves today!”
Liu Xiaoyuan’s husband said, clinking glasses with everyone. When he reached Lu Yang’s glass, Liu Xiaoyuan’s husband stared at Lu Yang for a few seconds, then his expression instantly turned cold.
“You are that useless son-in-law of the Tang family?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan’s husband’s words, Lu Yang looked utterly bewildered.
“Kid, it’s because of you that my cousin’s family went bankrupt. Billions in assets were frozen just like that. How dare you, you dog, show your face at my wedding?”
Looking at Lu Yang, Liu Xiaoyuan’s husband’s eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
“Who is your cousin?”
Lu Yang asked Liu Xiaoyuan’s husband, even more confused.
“Damn it, my cousin is Ye Shangwen. My name is Zhang Tao, we are cousins. Because my cousin’s family went bankrupt, our family was also severely affected, and our assets shrank significantly. It’s all because of you, you idiot, and your promiscuous wife!”
“If it wasn’t for your wife being promiscuous outside, my cousin’s company wouldn’t have been ruined!”
Zhang Tao cursed at Lu Yang, blaming the bankruptcy of Ye Shangwen’s family’s main enterprise entirely on Lu Yang and Tang Shimin.
“I warn you, you can curse me, but you can’t curse my wife!”
Hearing this, Lu Yang’s expression instantly turned cold. Tang Shimin was his sensitive spot, and no one could insult her.
“I will curse her, what are you going to do about it? What? Do you want to bite me?”
“You’re just a useless son-in-law of the Tang family, who do you think you are?”
Zhang Tao cursed at Lu Yang again.
“Lu Yang, I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person. I never invited you to my wedding, but you shamelessly showed up!”
“You pestered me in college, but I rejected you. I didn’t expect that after so many years, you’re still not giving up!”
“It wouldn’t have mattered if you came to my wedding, I could have treated you as a casual friend. But you, damn it, you ruined my husband’s cousin’s family. You are truly a scumbag!”
Liu Xiaoyuan, standing beside Zhang Tao, also cursed at Lu Yang with disdain.
“What? This trash actually pursued you?”
Hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan’s husband, Zhang Tao,’s eyes took on a playful look.
“Idiot, go and pee to see what you look like, and you dare to pursue my Xiaoyuan? You really are a toad wanting to eat swan meat!”
“Fortunately, I rejected him back then, otherwise, I would have ended up like this now!”
Liu Xiaoyuan continued to add insult to injury.
“Liu Xiaoyuan, that’s enough. You’re all classmates, why are you insulting Lu Yang like this?”
Lin Xue couldn’t stand it anymore and stood up again to speak for Lu Yang.
She knew very well that it was Liu Xiaoyuan who pursued Lu Yang back then, not the other way around. She couldn’t believe that Liu Xiaoyuan was now distorting the truth, which was extremely hateful.
