Chapter 33

Hearing his wife say this, Ye Chen felt very happy in his heart.

It seems that the place he chose for their wedding anniversary will surely satisfy his wife!

The two arrived at the Sky Garden and sat down at their reserved table, and Dong Ruolin arrived shortly after.

"Churan!"

"Ruolin!"

The two best friends hugged each other instantly, their happiness overflowing.

Afterward, the two held hands and chatted about old times for a long while before they finally calmed down.

Dong Ruolin said: "Churan, you are too extravagant, actually choosing to eat at the Sky Garden!"

Xiao Churan smiled and said: "You're here, aren't you! Then I definitely have to splurge!"

Dong Ruolin giggled: "You really are my best friend!"

Xiao Churan said: "To tell you the truth, I don't even have the qualifications to book a table here; I had to ask Wang Dongxue, the vice-chairwoman of the Emgrand Group, to help book this seat, and I used her membership card!"

Dong Ruolin sighed: "The requirements for the Sky Garden seem to be really high; it must be a diamond membership or something, right?"

"Mm." Xiao Churan nodded and said: "To be honest, this is my first time coming up here!"

Dong Ruolin smiled and said: "Thank you so much, my dear Churan!"

After saying that, she added: "By the way, when I came up just now, I saw a notice outside saying that the Sky Garden has been booked out for three days from now?"

"Yes." Xiao Churan said: "It's so strange; the Sky Garden has never accepted private bookings before, and I don't know what's going on this time."

Dong Ruolin nodded and said casually: "A while ago, there was a god-tier tycoon from Jin Ling on a short-video platform who bought a necklace and brought over a dozen Rolls-Royces, dozens of men in black, and over ten million in cash. Did you two see that video?"

Ye Chen shook his head, while Xiao Churan said: "I saw it; the display was indeed quite grand."

Dong Ruolin said: "Everyone is guessing who exactly he is."

Xiao Churan said: "What's there to guess about..."

Dong Ruolin laughed: "It's gossip! Everyone wants to know who is so domineering; some say it should be the new chairman of the Emgrand Group."

Ye Chen, standing to the side, froze for a moment.

But he quickly returned to normal.

Dong Ruolin continued: "Today, the Sky Garden at Bai Jinhangong was booked by someone again. I feel that the person who booked the Sky Garden and the one who bought the jade in the video should be the same person."

Xiao Churan sighed helplessly: "It's been so long, and you're still such a gossip!"

Dong Ruolin smiled and said: "Gossip is the driving force for a woman's survival!"

As she spoke, Dong Ruolin added: "Three days from now, I want to come here and see exactly what kind of person has such great face to be able to book the Sky Garden!"

Ye Chen, standing to the side, felt a massive headache upon hearing this.

He just wanted to give his wife a surprise and make up for the wedding he hadn't been able to provide her back then.

But he didn't want to be the center of everyone's attention all at once.

However, he seemed to have underestimated the influence of the Sky Garden.

It is estimated that many people in Jin Ling now have the same idea as Dong Ruolin, all wanting to see who exactly booked the Sky Garden.

This is a bit tricky now.

He must give Chen Zekai a heads-up in advance and make thorough preparations; no matter what, he cannot reveal his identity.

While eating, Dong Ruolin said to the two: "This time coming to Jin Ling, I also made an appointment with our former classmates. Everyone said they wanted to take this opportunity to hold a class reunion. What do you two think?"

Ye Chen immediately said: "I won't be attending your class reunion."

"Why?" Dong Ruolin said: "Even though we weren't classmates for all four years of college, we at least have one year of shared school life!"

When Ye Chen was taken in by Old Master Xiao back then, Old Master Xiao sent him to Jin Ling University to get him acquainted with Xiao Churan in advance, and he spent his senior year in the same class as Xiao Churan.

After graduating from their senior year, the two got married immediately.

However, Ye Chen had only been a classmate with them for one year, and most of them had always looked down on him, so they didn't have much of a friendship. Therefore, he wasn't interested in a class reunion at all.

Xiao Churan didn't really want to attend the class reunion either, so she said: "Ye Chen and I won't be going. I haven't had much contact with most of the classmates since graduation."

Dong Ruolin hurriedly said: "The reason for holding this class reunion is mainly because Wang Daokun from our class opened a restaurant, and it opens tomorrow. He is organizing everyone to go and show support for his restaurant and have a meal together while at it."

As she spoke, Dong Ruolin added: "Look, he's having a grand opening; it wouldn't be appropriate not to go, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, all three of their phones rang; it was a WeChat message.

Immediately after, many WeChat messages popped up one after another.

Everyone took out their phones to look, and it turned out that Wang Daokun had created a classmate group, and the group quickly reached over thirty people.

Wang Daokun said in the group: "Dear old classmates, the small restaurant I invested in will officially open tomorrow at noon. The restaurant is in Jinling. I invite the classmates in Jinling to come and grace us with your presence; everyone can just treat it as a class reunion!"

"Coincidentally, Dong Ruolin, one of the two golden flowers of our class, has also come to Jin Ling for work, and she will also be attending the reunion. It is said that Ruolin is still single; the bachelors in the group can hurry up and make your move!"

Immediately after, a large group of people replied one after another.

"Wow! Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Oh my, Ruolin is in Jin Ling? Why hadn't I heard! I will definitely be there!"

"What about Xiao Churan, the other golden flower of our class? Is she coming?"

"I heard Churan is with Ye Chen, that transfer student who joined our class later? I heard Ye Chen is a live-in son-in-law in the Xiao family?"

"I heard that too; I don't know if it's true or not. I haven't seen them since graduation..."

"I heard they are just going through the motions as a married couple, in name only. I wonder if that's true?"

Xiao Churan saw these contents and said to Ye Chen: "Don't take it to heart."

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "It's fine, what they said is the actual situation; I've long been used to it."

Dong Ruolin hurriedly said in the group: "Don't gossip about others randomly! I am currently eating with the couple! They are very loving!"

"Oh my, it's Ruolin!"

A large group of sycophants quickly swarmed in.

At this time, someone tagged Ye Chen in the group; it was the group owner, Wang Daokun: "Ye Chen, although you were in our class for a relatively short time, the relationship between us brothers was quite good when we were in school. You and your wife must be there tomorrow!"

Ye Chen had a pretty good impression of Wang Daokun; this person was indeed quite good, kind to everyone he met, and never mocked or ridiculed others, so he could be considered one of the few classmates he had a decent relationship with.

Seeing that he had said so, Ye Chen replied immediately: "Okay, I will definitely come to show support tomorrow."

Wang Daokun immediately said: "That's great! We must have a good get-together tomorrow!"
