”Yeah, I heard about that too, but back then none of us had come back, so there really wasn’t anything we could do to help you.”

”Now that most of us are back this time, if you still need help just tell us straight, we’ll definitely try our best to help you.”

”Yeah, we’re classmates after all, right? Whatever it is, just say it to us directly.”

The men crowded around Ji Hong and started talking, because among all the women present, Ji Hong was the one who stood out the most.

It wasn’t just Li Qingxiang who was moved the moment he saw Ji Hong; all these men felt the same way when they looked at her.

So they all wanted to use this chance to get closer to Ji Hong, and if they could take advantage of it a bit, so much the better.

Ji Hong actually hadn’t seen this coming at all at first, and when she noticed these men constantly surrounding her and talking, she also caught the strange looks the women around them were giving.

Ji Hong looked at them and said, ”Thank you all for worrying about me, but the situation at home has pretty much been resolved now.”

”Don’t be so polite with us. I heard people talking earlier, saying your family’s having some financial trouble right now.”

”They even said your business is nothing like it used to be. How can you call that ’resolved’? Don’t stand on ceremony with us, just tell me directly.”

”Yeah, we’re all classmates here. If we knew your family was running into difficulties, of course we’d step in to help.”

”Just relax and tell us straight. You should know, everyone here today is no ordinary person.”

The ones talking now were basically all overseas returnees; as for those who hadn’t gone abroad, they didn’t say a word.

Even though these people had no real qualifications to know exactly what was going on in her family.

But recently, what happened at the Martial Arts Competition had already spread everywhere.

Pretty much anyone would know their family seemed on the verge of rising up, so they all understood that what Ji Hong was saying now was entirely true.

As for those who kept insisting they wanted to help, they actually had no idea what had happened; they just wanted to use this opportunity to get close to Ji Hong.

Ji Hong looked at everyone helplessly and said, ”No, I’m telling the truth. I really appreciate you all caring about me so much, but our family honestly doesn’t need any help.”

”And we’re here mainly for the reunion this time, aren’t we? In that case, let’s not talk about this stuff—let’s talk about the old days instead.”

Just then, a shrill voice cut in: ”Don’t need help? Take a look at the guys circling around you right now—every one of them is looking at you like they want to eat you alive.”

”If your family really did have problems, getting them to help would be the easiest thing in the world, wouldn’t it?”

When they heard that voice, everyone turned to look in surprise.

What they saw was a woman in a tight dress that showed off her figure to the fullest. The moment the men laid eyes on her, they were instantly drawn in.

”You are...?”

Li walked over to her at once, but still couldn’t figure out who she was, since he had no memory of this classmate at all.

The woman smiled and threw him a flirty look. ”Looks like you never paid any attention to me in class before. I’m An Yuanyuan.”

An Yuanyuan?

Someone behind them spoke up, ”It’s you! I remember back then the whole class used to argue over whether you or Ji Hong was prettier!”

Everyone, hearing that, all started remembering. After all, An Yuanyuan had refused to accept anyone saying she wasn’t as good-looking as Ji Hong, and she’d caused quite a stir over it.

But even so, the class still felt An Yuanyuan’s looks couldn’t compete with Ji Hong’s at all.

Things were different now though. An Yuanyuan had a mature, highly seductive vibe about her; you could say she was on par with Ji Hong.

Not to mention the way An Yuanyuan was dressed—extremely sexy—so everyone knew she’d be easier to get than Ji Hong.

So for a while all the men shifted over to crowd around An Yuanyuan.

”So it’s you, I really didn’t expect that!”

”Yeah, An Yuanyuan, we haven’t seen you for a while and you’ve gotten even more gorgeous!”

”With a figure like that, you’re probably not the least bit worse than these little young things, huh?”

Seeing this scene, Ji Hong felt very helpless. Back then, she hadn’t cared about any of that.

Whether someone was the prettiest or not was totally meaningless to her, but she really was a bit exasperated by An Yuanyuan’s obsession.

Feeling satisfied with all these people clustering around her, An Yuanyuan walked over to Ji Hong to show off.

An Yuanyuan looked at Ji Hong and said, ”Come to think of it, ever since graduation I don’t think I’ve seen you for a very long time.”

”Mm, I remember you went abroad too, didn’t you? Looks like you’ve done pretty well for yourself,” Ji Hong nodded and said with a smile.

Hearing that, An Yuanyuan became even more smug. She was now someone in the upper echelons overseas, even a very well-known figure.

”Of course. To put it bluntly, I personally know everyone in the top ten on the rich list!” An Yuanyuan said proudly.

Everyone was stunned when they heard that, and they couldn’t help wondering if An Yuanyuan was bragging.

Seeing the surprise and envy in their eyes, An Yuanyuan felt even more pleased with herself. This was exactly why she had come back to attend this reunion.

She wanted everyone to see that she’d surpassed Ji Hong by a long shot!

Back in class, people had always said Ji Hong was the prettiest girl, and that had made An Yuanyuan deeply unwilling to accept it. She’d always wanted to prove that she was better than Ji Hong.
