Wei Lan was going to leave tomorrow, so this was the last gathering their group could have after the college entrance examination.
While they were eating, they discussed the next time they could have a gathering together again. It was probably going to be difficult for them to organise the next one.
However, Lou Xu was optimistic about it, “The next time we get together, we’re going to have to double our numbers. Let’s find a way and bring our partners here as well.”
Shao Qinghe shook his head, “If you continue to be picky about appearances, you are most likely going to be single.”
Lou Xu hummed unconvincingly, “Hmph.”
Xu Xinduo asked the three people who were studying abroad, “Are you going to immigrate in the future?”
Liu Yating shook her head, “I definitely won’t. My dad doesn’t really allow me to have a foreign boyfriend. He worries that if I go out and get a boyfriend overseas, he probably wouldn’t be able to see me anymore in the future”
Wei Lan sighed, “And I still have hundreds of millions of properties to inherit.”
Su Wei thought about things before he replied, “I’ll have to see how things develop right now. But since I am the second child of the family, it doesn’t really matter what I do.”
Wei Lan gave everyone something to drink— beer for the boys and drinks for the girls. Then, he said, “Come on, let’s have a toast to celebrate our graduation.”
Everyone raised the cups in their hands and clinked them together, saying “Cheers!”
Xu Xinduo took a sip from the cup and said, “This drink is meant to celebrate Shao Qinghe’s successful separation from his family.”
Shao Qinghe was completely separated from his original family. Mother Shao later said that she would receive treatment and only hoped that Shao Qinghe could go back.
However, Shao Qinghe’s heart has long been riddled with holes as the last words he left for her was, “I don’t want to be soft-hearted any longer. You might lie about committing suicide, but I’m serious about it.”
Disappointment over and over again brought him either despair or a heart of stone.
After college, Shao Qinghe would be completely liberated.
After the toast this time, Shao Qinghe said with a smile, “Now, let’s use this toast to celebrate Duoduo’s god-level ascension, alright?”
Tong Yan was jealous again, “Do you two still exchange gifts?”
Shao Qinghe quickly added, “By the way, let’s also celebrate Tong Yan and sister Duoduo being together.”
Tong Yan once bought a watch for Xu Xinduo and she became popular because of this watch. So later, she was labelled as ‘cousin (biao mei)(1).’
(T/N: Biao in Chinese is watch, but if it’s ‘biao mei’, it means cousin. It’s a Chinese pun)
Unexpectedly, this brand was going to officially develop the Asian market. When they were looking for a spokesperson in Asia,they finally found Xu Xinduo.
They just signed the contract just two days ago, and out of caution, their endorsement was only signed for half a year. However, this was enough to raise Xu Xinduo’s position to a higher level— a contract model of a major international brand, which was not something that could be done easily.
Seeing that everyone had placed down their cups and prepared to continue eating, Tong Yan couldn’t help but ask, “Why didn’t you celebrate that I did well in the Chinese test this time?”
This sentence caused the group of people to laugh, but they raised their glasses for the last time to celebrate Tong Yan’s successful counterattack.
When the party came to an end, Lou Xu took out a selfie stick and everyone gathered to take a photo.
In the photo, some of them had exaggerated expressions whereas some just smiled lightly. There was also a pair of siblings who remained expressionless.
Xu Xinduo liked this photo very much, so she posted it on Weibo that day with the caption: [Happy graduation.]
