The concern from these old classmates was genuine, and Ling Feng naturally treated them with a good attitude.
They entered the VIP lounge.
Before the group could even marvel at the luxurious surroundings, they spotted Lin Siqi on the opposite side!
Lin Siqi was already arranging things on the large dining table within the VIP lounge.
Although there were service staff, Lin Siqi clearly felt more at ease doing it herself. Moreover, since Ling Feng had gone down to greet people, Lin Siqi didn't know what else she could do sitting idle.
This was why Lin Siqi took the initiative to tidy things up.
Seeing the group enter from outside, Lin Siqi felt nervous, but her expression showed little of it.
After all, Lin Siqi was now the Chairwoman of Tianci Pharmaceuticals, and the executive chairwoman at that. She had met countless important figures.
She had long since become accustomed to remaining unfazed by honor or disgrace.
Let alone meeting these people, they didn't possess any particularly powerful aura or a demeanor that set them apart from ordinary people.
In fact, they seemed like the most ordinary of people.
However, these individuals were, after all, her old classmates.
Facing her old classmates, Lin Siqi couldn't help but feel a bit nervous!
"Siqi, you were already here!"
"Wow, these little decorations on the table are so thoughtful! Siqi, you're always so meticulous!"
"Hehe, congratulations Siqi! You've managed to win over this handsome guy Ling Feng, and Ling Feng seems to be doing pretty well now too. Truly enviable!"
Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, once these girls got together, they were completely at ease within a few sentences.
Although Qiu Yan also joined them, she felt inexplicably awkward. After greeting Lin Siqi at the beginning, Qiu Yan remained silent, as if she felt unable to hold her head up in front of Lin Siqi.
In fact, everyone could sense that Lin Siqi possessed a remarkable aura, not one of cold aloofness, but one that made everyone feel her nobility!
This kind of aura was not something ordinary people in positions of power possessed.
But precisely because they were classmates, and of the same age, they deliberately overlooked this, as if hoping that such a thing hadn't really happened to Lin Siqi.
However, when Lin Siqi spoke, it made everyone feel very comfortable, so the initial sensory discrepancy was quickly dismissed as an illusion.
"Please, have a seat. The gentlemen have also arrived, I'll go down and greet them!"
Seeing the group chatting animatedly, Ling Feng nodded to Lin Siqi and then went down to meet the others.
Lin Siqi, upon hearing this, still said to Ling Feng, "Ling Feng, I'll go down with you..."
"No need, I can manage myself."
Ling Feng smiled faintly.
But at this moment, Qiu Yan, who was standing next to the group, for some unknown reason, said as if compelled, "Let me go. I'm more familiar with the classmates from the company. I organize our annual gatherings too!"
Ling Feng paused slightly upon hearing this, his gaze towards Qiu Yan holding no particular significance.
Yet, such a look made one feel a sense of rigidity throughout their body. Qiu Yan felt exactly this way, as if all her hidden thoughts were being seen through by Ling Feng.
The others beside them also fell silent.
Although the words spoken earlier by the group were meant in jest, the fact that Qiu Yan had written a love letter to Ling Feng back then was true. No one was making things up.
Now, upon meeting again, Qiu Yan's achievements were naturally outstanding. She was the best among them, a high-ranking executive in a company, with an annual salary in the millions.
And Ling Feng?
He also appeared very successful. Casually booking such a VIP lounge to host old classmates, and merely notifying them to attend his wedding, such extravagance was definitely not something an ordinary person could afford.
These two seemed to be a more fitting match.
However, time had passed, and everyone knew that matters of youth were like passing clouds.
Now, Ling Feng was already taken, and Lin Siqi was right here.
At this moment, for Qiu Yan to want to go with Ling Feng to greet guests was somewhat inexplicable!
Therefore, everyone remained silent.
In contrast, Lin Siqi's expression didn't change much. She simply smiled and nodded at Qiu Yan, saying, "Then I'll trouble you, Class Monitor Qiu Yan."
"It's no trouble."
Qiu Yan smiled brilliantly at Lin Siqi and then, carrying her bag, followed Ling Feng.
Seeing her follow, Ling Feng didn't say much. He only noticed the unusual glances from the other girls.
Regardless of what they were thinking, Ling Feng led Qiu Yan outside.
However, this short corridor seemed to stretch out for them, becoming long.
To be precise, it became much longer for Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan gently bit her lower lip. Ling Feng's silence made her somewhat at a loss.
She didn't know why she had stepped forward.
Perhaps it was due to some unfulfilled feelings for Ling Feng from back then, a sense of unwillingness.
Or perhaps it was because Ling Feng had stepped in to help her when Yin Jiyuan had harassed her earlier. But whatever the reason, the result was that Qiu Yan had followed.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent at this moment, and Qiu Yan couldn't help but initiate a conversation: "Ling Feng, I never expected that after so many years without seeing each other, we'd meet again with you and Siqi getting married."
"En, yes. We haven't seen each other for nearly ten years. We've been too busy with our own affairs. This time returning, I apologize for disturbing you all."
Ling Feng followed the topic.
Yang Fei, standing nearby, glanced sideways. Ling Feng was indeed different towards these old classmates. If it were ordinary people, Ling Feng wouldn't have so many pleasantries.
"En, can you tell me how you and Siqi got together? I remember you both were quite reserved people during school, weren't you?"
Qiu Yan bit her lower lip and finally voiced her thoughts.
This wasn't her being nosy; she genuinely wanted to know how Lin Siqi ended up with Ling Feng!
Ling Feng heard this and looked sideways at Qiu Yan: "Hehe, is that so? Now that you mention it, I do recall that we didn't interact much during school."
"Yes, neither of you were the talkative type."
Qiu Yan smiled. Her smile was very charming, but in front of Ling Feng, it seemed to have no effect!
"En, perhaps it's because our family backgrounds were quite similar. We were both rather introverted and didn't talk much back then. However, we've been together for three to four years now. For the first three years, I went through some difficulties, and she waited for me. Now, it's time for me to give her a proper commitment. It's just that we don't have many mutual friends, which is why I thought of you all! At the wedding, I hope you can be witnesses."
Ling Feng spoke what was the longest speech of the evening, and it contained no falsehoods.
Qiu Yan bit her lower lip, seemingly not expecting that Ling Feng and Lin Siqi had such a story between them!
"En, so that's how it is..."
"Alright, so you guys are on the seventh floor! You made this young master run all the way to the fifth floor!" As the elevator doors opened, Yin Jiyuan suddenly jumped out!
