Chapter 2231: 10th Anniversary Reunion

~8 min read 1,590 words

After the county's post-disaster reconstruction work gradually got on the right track, Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya took their child back to Shangjun County. Guo Suhua had been urging him to return to Shangjun County as soon as the flood season ended, but he really couldn't get away at that time, so it dragged on until now. He had to go home; otherwise, Guo Suhua would have opinions.

Back home, Guo Suhua looked Su Xinghui up and down. Su Xinghui didn't speak either, standing there smiling and letting her look. He knew his mother was still worried about his health, so he naturally had to reassure her.

Guo Suhua looked around and felt that her son's health was fine, and he was whiter and fatter than he looked on TV before. She then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Hmm, it looks like your health is better."

Su Xinghui said, "That's for sure. Xiaoya has taken such good care of me during this time."

Guo Suhua said, "Then Xiaoya has worked hard. Come, Niuniu, let Grandma hold you. Grandma has missed you to death."

Guo Suhua picked up Niuniu and couldn't get enough of her. Seeing her happiness, Su Xinghui was also very gratified. Being able to make his family happy was also the thing that made him happiest.

Guo Suhua picked up Niuniu and couldn't get enough of her. Seeing her happiness, Su Xinghui was also very gratified. Being able to make his family happy was also the thing that made him happiest.

Back home, after eating a meal, Zhang Cheng called Su Xinghui. He heard that Su Xinghui was back and was organizing a reunion. He said that this year was the tenth anniversary of their high school graduation, so since Su Xinghui was back, they had to have a big reunion.

Zhang Cheng didn't have any great ambitions. He just liked liveliness in his life. In the past, when they held reunions or ate together, he was the one organizing most of it.

Su Xinghui hadn't been back to Shangjun County for several months, and Zhang Cheng missed him quite a bit. Knowing he was back this time, he naturally had to organize a reunion to liven things up.

Su Xinghui actually wasn't too keen on holding reunions. His current status was a bit awkward. If those ordinary classmates asked him for something, should he agree or not?

However, Zhang Cheng was so enthusiastic that Su Xinghui really couldn't refuse his face. This was his close friend who had helped him a lot in the past, so he agreed to arrive on time with Lu Xiaoya in the evening.

Speaking of which, Su Xinghui hadn't seen Zhang Cheng and his other close friends for a long time, and he missed them quite a bit.

In the evening, Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya went to a restaurant called Chuanxianglou. This was a restaurant that made authentic Sichuan cuisine. In this era, Sichuan cuisine was the most popular cuisine in the country.

Zhang Cheng and a group of classmates had already arrived here early and were sitting in the lobby. Seeing Su Xinghui and his wife arrive, they all stood up and greeted them. A group of people surrounded Su Xinghui and his wife like stars surrounding the moon.

Su Xinghui actually didn't like this feeling. It was fine for others to revolve around him usually, as they were his subordinates, but these were his classmates, and he didn't want his classmates to treat him with this attitude.

However, he also knew that with his current status, his relationship with his classmates definitely couldn't go back to the past.

Therefore, Su Xinghui could only try his best to lower his status and treat his classmates with his past attitude. He knew that if he showed even a hint of arrogance, it would be spread as the kind of villain who changes his face once he becomes rich.

Although he didn't care about such rumors, he would avoid them if he could.

Surrounded by his classmates, Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya entered the private room. The private room was very large, and three tables had already been set up. Each table was also very large and could seat more than a dozen people. Today, Zhang Cheng had called basically all the classmates he could call, and these classmates didn't refuse when they heard Su Xinghui was also attending; they all came.

After everyone sat down, Zhang Cheng said to the waiter, "Serve the wine, serve the dishes, be quick!"

Zhang Cheng had already ordered the dishes, so the waiter served the wine and dishes very quickly. Before long, the wine and dishes were all served.

Zhang Cheng raised his glass and said, "Come, let's toast Xinghui together. Xinghui is a flood control hero, so we must drink a few cups with him."

Everyone responded loudly and raised their glasses to toast Su Xinghui together. Su Xinghui kept saying he didn't dare, and he also raised his glass to drink with his classmates.

Wu Jun asked with concern, "Xinghui, is your health okay now?"

Everyone also looked at Su Xinghui with concern. They had all seen the news of his fainting and hospitalization on TV a while ago. At this moment, the concern they showed seemed very sincere, after all, they were classmates for several years.

And those years were also their most innocent years, and the memories brought by those years were very precious.

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Don't you know my health? I've been fine for a long time, so you don't need to worry."

Su Xinghui's complexion was indeed good now, so everyone felt relieved and started to toast Su Xinghui again.

They drank very happily. After all, this year was the tenth anniversary of their graduation, and everyone attached great importance to this reunion.

Ten years after graduation, everyone's circumstances had widened the gap. The most outstanding one at present was naturally Su Xinghui. He was already a county magistrate and had just been elected as a representative of national flood control and disaster relief heroic models. He had been on TV, spoken at the national commendation and summary assembly, and had cordial dialogues with several state leaders, including Premier Nan. Such treatment was something others didn't even dare to think about.

Other classmates, such as Xu Xiaoguang, were also quite good now. His family's Haimin Construction Company and Hongtu Real Estate Company were now well-known large companies in the country, and their assets were said to have exceeded one billion, making him a big tycoon. All the expenses for today's class reunion were also borne by him.

Wu Jun was a member of the Shangjun County Public Security Bureau's leadership team. During the flood control and disaster relief in Shangjun County this year, he also performed very well. According to reliable sources, the possibility of him being promoted to deputy director next year was quite high. In a county, a deputy director of the Public Security Bureau could also be considered a remarkable figure.

Zhang Cheng was now a deputy section chief in the Finance Bureau. Although his rank was not high, it belonged to a key department, especially since his father, Zhang Kaishan, was also a person of high position and great power, so no one dared to underestimate him.

Most of the other classmates were doing okay. After all, Shangjun County's economic development speed was quite fast now, and there were many opportunities. As long as they weren't too stupid, too honest, or too unlucky, they wouldn't do too badly.

But no matter what, there were still some classmates who weren't doing very well, dressed in shabby clothes, sitting in an inconspicuous place, with a timid smile on their faces, which made Su Xinghui feel very emotional.

However, Su Xinghui was naturally not the kind of snob. He toasted every classmate one by one, and he drank every cup with everyone, never treating them differently, so that he could take care of their self-esteem.

When he toasted Xue Qin, Xue Qin smiled and said, "I can't drink alcohol. I still have to take care of my child when I go back."

Xue Qin's child was in kindergarten now, and she really couldn't drink. Drinking and going back would have a bad influence on the child.

Seeing the happiness on Xue Qin's face, Su Xinghui was also very emotional and gratified. If possible, he still hoped that every one of his classmates would live well.

In fact, Xue Qin could be considered to have a relatively good situation among their classmates. She was now a section chief in the State Taxation Bureau, and she was beautiful. Her husband in the Power Supply Bureau was honest, so her status in the family was naturally very high.

It just so happened that the Power Supply Bureau was a unit with very good welfare, so Xue Qin's family life could be described as wealthy. She didn't have any great ambitions in her official career, and her main energy was put into her child. It could even be said that she was now radiating a kind of maternal brilliance.

In fact, this was also a kind of happiness, and most people's happiness was like this. Isn't it good to live your own life well? What Su Xinghui had always been committed to was letting the common people under his rule live this kind of life.

Su Xinghui nodded and smiled, "Fine, then you drink juice." ===== CHAPTER 2233 =====
