Chapter 460: Revisiting old places

~7 min read 1,351 words

Xiao Changkun dressed himself up like an old overseas Chinese returning from Nanyang, handsome and stylish.

This time, he and Han Meiqing had a very good understanding. Xiao Changkun didn't bring Ye Chen, and Han Meiqing didn't bring her son Paul.

Xiao Changkun drove his BMW 5 Series to the Buckingham Hotel to pick up Han Meiqing and return to their alma mater together.

This time, Han Meiqing wore a gray long woolen coat, which looked very elegant. As soon as they met at the entrance of Buckingham, Xiao Changkun was fascinated by her.

He personally got out of the car to open the door for Han Meiqing and couldn't help but praise, "Meiqing, you look so beautiful today!"

Han Meiqing smiled slightly and said, "I'm already at this age, what's beautiful or not? It's just that I'm going back to my alma mater to take a look, so I tidied myself up a bit, I can't lose face for my alma mater."

As she spoke, Han Meiqing added, "Besides, I have to meet with our old classmates today."

"Oh right!" Xiao Changkun patted his head and said, "Look at my memory, I was only thinking about accompanying you to see our alma mater and forgot about the class reunion. By the way, has the location for the class reunion been decided? If not, I can let my son-in-law help."

Han Meiqing hurriedly said, "The place has already been decided. I asked Paul to help book it. He said it is a place called Brilliant Club locally."

Xiao Changkun was surprised and said, "Brilliant Club? The requirements for guests there are very high. Has Paul already been able to get a membership there just after arriving in Jin Ling?"

Han Meiqing said with a smile, "I really don't know the specifics of this. I only know that he told me that their law firm seems to have a long-term cooperative relationship with the parent company of this Brilliant Club, and all their overseas legal affairs are entrusted to our law firm."

Xiao Changkun was shocked!

The parent company of the Brilliant Club is naturally the famous Song family in Jin Ling. He didn't expect that the law firm of Han Meiqing's family also had a cooperative relationship with the Song family!

He originally wanted to let his son-in-law Ye Chen help arrange a venue at the Brilliant Club, and by the way, let himself show off.

But he didn't expect that Han Meiqing's son directly solved this matter, which is really extraordinary.

So, Xiao Changkun hurriedly made a gesture of invitation and said, "Come, Meiqing, get in the car quickly."

Han Meiqing said thank you and sat gracefully in the passenger seat of Xiao Changkun's BMW 5 Series.

Xiao Changkun drove toward Zhongshan University and couldn't help but sigh, "You haven't been back for over twenty years, right?"

Han Meiqing said, "I have been back to the country, back to Su-Hang, but I haven't been back to Jin Ling."

Xiao Changkun hurriedly asked, "Could it be because of that matter back then, that's why you didn't come back to Jin Ling?"

Han Meiqing said earnestly, "Half and half. On one hand, it was because of the previous matter that made me not want to come back to face the memories. On the other hand, it was because I didn't have any relatives in Jin Ling, and old classmates hadn't been in touch for a long time, so I didn't come back."

Xiao Changkun nodded, thinking of the last class reunion, when many classmates teased him about his love triangle with Han Meiqing and Ma Lan back then.

So, he said earnestly to Han Meiqing, "Meiqing, today at the reunion, it's likely that those old classmates will tease us about our affairs back then. You must not take it to heart, these people are a bit old and indecent!"

Han Meiqing smiled and said, "As long as it's not distorting the facts, it doesn't matter if they tease us a bit. If I were afraid of their teasing, how could I have organized this class reunion? Everyone hasn't seen each other for over 20 years, the fellow student feelings back then are greater than everything, what does it matter if they tease me a couple of times?"

Arriving at Zhongshan University, Xiao Changkun parked the car in the parking lot at the school gate and walked into the school side by side with Han Meiqing.

The school was having classes, so the campus was very quiet.

The two walked on the cement road of the campus, and Xiao Changkun introduced to Han Meiqing beside him, "Actually, our school has been rebuilt and renovated several times over the years, and it is completely different from what it was back then. To be honest, our school was still very broken back then."

"Yes!" Han Meiqing couldn't help but sigh, "I remember our school only had one cement road back then, which was the road from the school gate, and the other roads were paved with furnace ash. Sometimes the school asked local students to bring burned coal balls from home to pave the road. That kind of road was very muddy when it rained. I hated it back then, but now that I think about it, I still miss it."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiao Changkun laughed and said, "Back then, I often brought burned honeycomb coal balls from home to school. Do you remember that year the school was going to hold a sports meeting, but the track on our school playground was too bad, so the school mobilized us to try every possible way to get more materials that could be used to pave the road."

Han Meiqing laughed, "Of course I remember, at that time you paid out of your own pocket and brought many male students to push tricycles all over the city to buy burned honeycomb coal balls."

As she spoke, Han Meiqing looked at Xiao Changkun with flowing light and color in her eyes, and sighed again, "I remember at that time you pulled many carts to school, and later half of the playground track was paved by the people you brought, so the teachers and the school valued you very much and made you the student union president of our school."

"Yes." Xiao Changkun rubbed his hands somewhat embarrassedly and said, "At that time, the spirit of dedication was popular!"

Han Meiqing nodded and sighed, "Oh my, at that time you were truly heroic, making countless little girls admire you very much. I remember that the girls who liked you in school back then were really in a long line."

Xiao Changkun's old face turned red, and he said happily, "There were even more boys who liked you back then, I couldn't even count how many."

Han Meiqing smiled indifferently, "It's all old history. No matter how many people like you, it's useless. Many people just treat you as a passing cloud. They like you very much when they like you, but they forget you as soon as they turn their heads."

Xiao Changkun pointed to a small park in the campus and said, "This used to be a quite large forest. Every night, many students who were dating would come here to date. We also often came here back then, do you remember?"

Han Meiqing, who had always been calm, blushed when he said this.

How could she not remember that forest? Back then, it was a holy place for many wild mandarin ducks in the school to have secret meetings. She and Xiao Changkun also came here many times.

At that time, everyone was very open in this small forest. When they loved each other deeply, they felt they could do anything with the person they loved.

Plus, in that era, there was nowhere else to go, so everyone came here, and everyone was used to it.

However, now that I think about it, the group of young people back then also had quite open minds, and their guts were much bigger than today's young people...
