Chapter 1415: Chapter 515: Mo Xiangwan the Troublemaker

The warm streetlights above enveloped the three people.

The warm light from above gently cascaded down, wrapping their figures in a cozy and hazy glow.

The night breeze stirred their hair, bringing a hint of autumn chill, yet making the moment feel even more real.

Sun Jiayue stared blankly at her high school classmate across from her, as past memories slowly surfaced in her mind.

Bits of the youthful and vibrant high school scenes flashed before her one by one.

The carefree, exuberant youth gradually overlapped completely with this mature, confident, and distinguished figure.

Both unfamiliar yet familiar, both distant yet close.

”Tang Song?” she murmured to herself.

”It’s me. You can’t possibly not recognize me, can you?” Tang Song nodded with a smile, his tone carrying a hint of teasing.

”You’ve changed... quite a lot.” Sun Jiayue tried to calm the waves in her heart, refocusing her gaze.

She had never been much into looks, not caring about a guy’s appearance, always aspiring for successful business elites.

Thinking about her recent lapse, a touch of awkwardness flashed across her face.

His change was just too great, and indeed he was very handsome, like a male lead straight out of a workplace drama.

”You’ve changed too, much slimmer, much more beautiful, I almost didn’t recognize you. Plus, I’ve heard from Qingning that you’re doing very well now, a high-profile financial elite in Shanghai, truly impressive.”

Tang Song looked at Sun Jiayue in her exquisite professional outfit with a sense of admiration.

His words were genuine.

He hadn’t seen Sun Jiayue for more than seven years.

Two months ago, returning to his alma mater, the memories of 2016 still vivid, as if one moment she was an innocent chubby girl and the next a standard career woman, he couldn’t help marvel at the passage of time and personal growth.

”Thank you for the compliment, old classmate.” Sun Jiayue instinctively tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her lips curling up involuntarily.

She indeed had reasons to be proud of her current achievements.

As for the hardships endured, perhaps only she truly understood.

Tang Song pointed at the casually dressed girl beside her and asked, ”By the way, who’s this beside you? Aren’t you going to introduce her?”

”Uh...” Sun Jiayue turned around, ”She’s my college friend and roommate, Zhang Nuo, she also works around this area.”

”Hello, I’m Tang Song, nice to meet you.” Tang Song smiled politely and warmly.

Zhang Nuo was briefly stunned by his smile and quickly looked down, stammering, ”Hello, Tang Song. Um... I was just upstairs cooking and hurried down.”

She hastily explained, hiding her feet in red slippers behind her.

Although outwardly strong, inside, she was actually collapsing.

She had believed her friend’s words, thinking a chubby programmer was visiting, so she had dismissed it, running down to enjoy the commotion.

But there was Sun Jiayue dressed to the nines and Tang Song, the suit-adorned attractive man.

She now felt like a complete clown.

She felt she wouldn’t be happy for the rest of the year.

Apparently aware of her thoughts, Tang Song looked at her and said, ”You both indeed embody the elegance of financial elite from Shanghai.”

Upon hearing his praise, Zhang Nuo’s face immediately flushed red, her mood shifting from rainy to sunny.

Oh my! Attractive Man! Please say more, I love hearing it!

Sun Jiayue pursed her lips, stood tall, and said, ”Come on, the meal is ready, if we’re much later the crabs will cool.”

”Right, right, I personally picked those big crabs at the supermarket, you must try them.”

”Thank you, let’s go.”

Talking, the three walked side by side towards the elevator, their footsteps echoing in the quiet hallway.

Once upstairs, Tang Song placed the fruit gift box he brought by the entrance, letting his eyes take in the surrounding decor.

The interior was simple yet classy, filled with smart appliances and artistic decor, giving off a very tasteful vibe.

”This place is really nice, you guys are living quite well,” Tang Song sincerely complimented, his tone filled with appreciation.

”It’s alright, just rent is expensive,” Sun Jiayue replied with a lighthearted tone, ”But the location is indeed convenient, very close to Lujiazui.”

Zhang Nuo glanced at the two of them before darting into the bedroom.

Sun Jiayue guided Tang Song to sit in the dining room, inquiring about his accommodation in Shanghai.

Hearing he was staying at the JW Marriott Hotel, a slight flash of surprise crossed her eyes.

Although she hadn’t seen Tang Song, she had gathered some scattered information from other classmates about his situation.

Previously, he was working in development at Meigou Technology, considered a promising tech company programmer, possibly with future opportunities to ascend to management or earn a million-yuan salary per year.

However, ever since Liu Qingning left the Imperial City last year, he too returned to Yan City, working at a trading company.

Now, traveling to Shanghai, he was staying at a five-star hotel, and his attire...

Sun Jiayue knew a bit about fashion, naturally able to tell his outfit was exceptional, at least worth thousands of yuan.

All signs indicated he was doing much better than she had imagined.

When Zhang Nuo emerged once more, she was completely transformed.

Now dressed in chic casual wear, her hair neatly arranged, with a dash of bean-paste colored lipstick, she looked radiant and full of spirit.

The three began dining, and the conversation gradually unfolded.

Primarily, Tang Song and Sun Jiayue discussed high school past events.

Several familiar names were mentioned, some shared secrets and fun stories were brought up.

In just a few sentences, they were transported back to that youthful and innocent high school time.

Originally shy and reserved, Zhang Nuo gradually joined in, occasionally interjecting with some witty remarks, making the atmosphere increasingly relaxed and pleasant.
