The atmosphere at the banquet was still relatively lively. Although they had graduated from a no-name university, after years of hard work, a small portion of them had ascended to leadership positions and held some minor power. Such classmates were surrounded by many people, just like flies buzzing around stinky eggs.

Teacher Qin drank with quite a few students, and then, unable to hold his liquor, he left halfway through.

The departure of Teacher Qin allowed many students to let down their guard, making the atmosphere even livelier and more unrestrained.

"See, I knew it, nowadays class reunions ultimately turn into a stage for a few to show off, becoming a sickening scene of fame and profit!" Chu Ziling, having drunk a few glasses of red wine, revealed a hint of sadness in her eyes.

She had been reluctant to attend the reunion because she wanted to preserve the beauty and purity of her college days in her heart, to keep the memories of her youthful vigor!

Because Teacher Qin was involved, Chu Ziling couldn't refuse to come, but upon arriving, she found that her worries had still materialized.

Seeing those classmates who had achieved slight success in their careers acting arrogantly, seeing those who sought favors acting servile, seeing the once innocent female classmates now unrestrained, and seeing the once spirited male classmates behaving like petty victors... All of this deeply disappointed Chu Ziling.

Ling Feng looked at her and said, "I didn't expect you to be so sentimental. I thought you, as a daughter of the Chu Family, would be more open-minded about these things."

"Being open-minded is one thing, but accepting it is another," Chu Ziling finished her glass of red wine with a hint of melancholy and said, "Let's go."

At that moment, a middle-aged man with a glass in his hand approached Chu Ziling and said with a smile, "Miss Chu, I'm delighted to meet you today. May I have a drink with you?"

Chu Ziling frowned, looking at the self-satisfied man before her, and said indifferently, "Sorry, but I don't think we are acquainted, so let's skip the drink!"

"To meet is to be fated!" The middle-aged man smiled, "Miss Chu, with your outstanding grace, why deny people thousands of miles away? My name is Zhao Jin, and I am the head of a department at the Yanjing City Health Bureau! May I ask where you are currently employed?"

Although Chu Ziling carried an extraordinary air, Zhao Jin did not believe she was very capable, for he knew all too well about Yanjing Business College, just a no-name university. People from such a university generally lacked notable backgrounds.

Moreover, as Chu Ziling was extremely beautiful, for Zhao Jin, who was obsessed with beauty, ignoring such a woman was the biggest waste of life!

As he spoke, Zhao Jin sat down where Teacher Qin had sat, right beside Chu Ziling, and said smilingly, "Having more friends opens more paths; who knows, maybe there will come a time when I can lend you a hand?"

Ling Feng struggled to suppress his laughter. The dignified daughter of the Chu Family was being flirted with by an insignificant department head. If this got out, it would certainly be hilarious!

Chu Ziling noticed the amused look on Ling Feng's face and couldn't help but pinch him hard.

"Ouch, what are you doing? Were you born a crab?" Ling Feng brushed off Chu Ziling's hand and said discontentedly.

Chu Ziling huffed, "What was that expression just now? Are you mocking me in your heart?"

Ling Feng broke into a sweat. Could this woman read minds? "Not at all, I just find this place very interesting. How about we stay a bit longer?"

Chu Ziling knew Ling Feng just wanted to see her embarrass herself, and she gave him a dissatisfied glare.

On the other side, Zhao Jin's expression darkened. This couple was flirting right under his nose—as if he didn't exist!

Looking at Ling Feng's handsome face filled Zhao Jin's heart with resentment. He even imagined Ling Feng and Chu Ziling rolling around passionately in bed, and couldn't help but clench his fists as veins popped on his hand, "Hmph, a top-notch woman like Chu Ziling should belong to me! How can this Pretty Boy have such a woman?"

Thinking this, Zhao Jin glanced at Chen Rou, who trembled and then approached, smiling, "Ziling, where have you been all these years? We've all missed you!"

As she spoke, Chen Rou took Chu Ziling's hand and led her to another table, "Come sit here for a bit, and let's catch up on what you've been through! Looking at you now, you've obviously soared high—just don't forget us, your good sisters!"

Chen Rou was Chu Ziling's roommate in college. Reluctantly, Chu Ziling followed Chen Rou to the other table and slowly started chatting with the other girls.

"Young man, you look very young!" Seeing Chen Rou taking Chu Ziling away, Zhao Jin casually said to Ling Feng, "Are you Miss Chu's boyfriend?"

Ling Feng thought for a moment and said, "Sort of!"

"Huh?" Zhao Jin was confused for a moment, "What do you mean by 'sort of'?"

Ling Feng smirked and said, "Well, look, our relationship hasn't reached that level just yet, and it might seem harsh to say it isn't serious as we do fulfil each other's needs!"

Zhao Jin's breathing quickened, and with reddened eyes, he asked, "You mean to say..."

"We are just running buddies!" Ling Feng stated matter-of-factly, "Don't make that face. We're all adults here. What's there to fuss about? Sure, she's a woman, but women have their desires too! I'm not ugly, and I'm quite capable; she's satisfied, and so am I. For now, we are very satisfied with each other!"

"May I ask what your job is..."

"I'm just a security guard!" Ling Feng touched his chin and said, "Although the pay is a bit low, there's no helping it, my physical strength is good, I..."

Just as Ling Feng was boasting, Zhao Jin sternly said, "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom!"

Watching Zhao Jin hurry away, Ling Feng chuckled wickedly. He knew exactly what Zhao Jin was thinking!

"Thinking about your goddess pinned down by a security guard, this must taste terrible, huh?" Ling Feng took a sip of his beer and wickedly thought, "You better hang in there!"

"Damn it, fuck!" In the restroom, Zhao Jin furiously pounded on the sink. He couldn't believe that the elegant and stunning Chu Ziling would end up with a security guard!

The situation felt to Zhao Jin as if he was seeing a large bill in a dung pit. Though it was tempting, the thought was disgusting!

"Hmph, this is actually good!" After venting, Zhao Jin thought darkly, "If you were a paragon of chastity, I might have some trouble, but since you're this kind of loose woman, conquering you will be much simpler!"
