Chapter 251: Chapter 248: Unemployed
Zhao Minghui ordered wine and gave everyone a knowing look; everyone understood what to do. Among the dozen or so classmates present, some were male and some female. Most of them had been invited by Zhao Minghui, while a few had come because of benefits received. Zhao Minghui had put in a lot of effort to ensure Ye Juanjuan would attend the reunion.
White wine for the men, red wine for the women.
"Classmates, let me introduce someone to you," He Yulian began gracefully, pointing at Ye Fan. "This gentleman, Ye, is Ye Juanjuan’s boyfriend. Please don’t be shy; make sure to take care of him and don’t neglect him."
About Ye Fan and Ye Juanjuan’s relationship, there was already a misunderstanding, so the siblings decided to go along with it without any explanation.
Ye Fan also wanted to see what these outwardly friendly yet inwardly wicked people would do.
"Class beauty, what are you talking about? Isn’t this being too polite? Ye Juanjuan’s boyfriend is our friend too; we’re all the same age, so we’ll definitely take care of this brother." Someone instantly chimed in.
"Yu Lian, what are you doing? How can you goad everyone like this against someone?" Ye Juanjuan warned meaningfully.
"How is this against him? The first time is unfamiliar, the second time we’ll be friends, right? Everyone just wants to get to know your boyfriend." He Yulian laughed.
"Exactly, Ye Juanjuan, you’re not being fair. You won’t even give us a chance to get acquainted? We’re all men; a couple of drinks and we’ll naturally get familiar." Several men fanned the flames.
Ye Juanjuan felt helpless; she knew He Yulian and others were targeting her brother intentionally, yet she couldn’t control it, which made her anxious.
"It’s okay," Ye Fan patted his sister’s hand, gently comforting her.
Ye Juanjuan glanced at her brother’s nonchalant demeanor, only then did she feel slightly relieved.
"There’s still some time before the food is ready. How about we have a drink first?" Zhao Minghui suggested.
"Absolutely, Zhao always treats us, so naturally, we should drink and eat more. This is quality wine, just a small sip costs hundreds," a man agreed wholeheartedly with Zhao Minghui, praising him immensely. This lavish meal was hosted by Zhao Minghui, who was a genuine boss, wealthy, and the most successful and promising among them.
This man deliberately mentioned Zhao Minghui hosting to subtly reassure Ye Fan that there’s no need to worry about the expenses; for Zhao Minghui, such trifles are negligible, hinting to Ye Fan not to fret over money or feel ashamed if he’s unable to contribute.
"What Zhao? We’re all classmates; don’t call me Zhao. Just use my name," Zhao Minghui said amiably.
"How can that be? You’re the famous Zhao among us, the best among us," a woman immediately spoke up, "We all see you as a role model, you genuinely deserve the title of Zhao."
Zhao Minghui didn’t comment further on the title, but hearing everyone call him Zhao pleased him greatly, inflating his ego and pride to the extreme. He laughed warmly, "In our class, if anyone’s the best, it’s not me; it’s the great beauty Ye who has entered the headquarters of Chu Group and become the assistant to the head of the finance department. That’s truly promising."
"What?"
"Really?"
"Chu Group? Even with the highest education, without real skills, it’s impossible to break in, let alone to the headquarters."
"I heard those who get into Chu Group’s headquarters are all top elites."
Male or female, everyone was startled by Zhao Minghui’s words and their expressions towards Ye Juanjuan changed. They truly didn’t know about this, so why wouldn’t they be shocked?
Only Zhao Minghui and He Yulian knew about this. He Yulian feigned surprise and teasingly said, "Juanjuan, you really entered the headquarters of Chu Group and immediately became the assistant to the head of the finance department?"
"Yeah, that’s right," Ye Juanjuan confirmed.
"You’re too mean, not even telling me, your friend, about such a big matter," He Yulian criticized further, displeased. "Next time, you must treat us. At least let us enjoy a feast."
"Exactly, you must treat us," others chimed in, even though they were not close to Ye Juanjuan, their attitude changed, wanting to get closer to Ye Juanjuan. If she could say a word, it would greatly benefit them, even helping them find a better job wouldn’t be a problem. Being the assistant to the head of the finance department of Chu Group was quite a status.
Without real talent, finding a good job is tough. Just having a degree isn’t enough nowadays.
If there’s someone to look after you, it’s different; you can actually land a decent job.
Therefore, looking at Ye Juanjuan, how could they not calm down?
Though Zhao Minghui may have a fortune in millions, if Ye Juanjuan flourishes in her career for a few more years without mistakes, Zhao Minghui would be incomparable.
"I thought she wore knock-offs, turns out they’re all genuine brands," some women, before Ye Juanjuan, no longer seemed proud, appearing inferior. Even if Ye Juanjuan wore lesser quality clothes, in their eyes now, they’re branded, realizing those who enter Chu Group’s headquarters are beyond comparison.
"Okay, next time we’ll go to a food stall, I don’t have that much money," Ye Juanjuan laughed off.
He Yulian didn’t believe it, refuting, "Juanjuan, now you’re just being humble. What you’re wearing must be worth hundreds of thousands; how could you not have money?"
"Exactly," many agreed.
"I really don’t have money," Ye Juanjuan said sincerely.
These words made He Yulian and the other women extremely embarrassed.
Someone claiming they don’t have money, wearing such high-end clothes, far superior to them.
Though they boasted of having money, compared to Ye Juanjuan, the difference is huge.
"Comparing oneself to others is unbearable," He Yulian and the other women thought with a bitter heart.
If Ye Juanjuan knew her honest words triggered feelings of inferiority in He Yulian and the other women, who knows how she would feel.
Zhao Minghui interjected, "So, Ye brother, where do you work?"
This question drew everyone’s attention, indeed, to be Ye Juanjuan’s boyfriend, surely his abilities aren’t lacking.
Especially He Yulian, who knew Ye Juanjuan’s character well; an ordinary person wouldn’t catch Ye Juanjuan’s eye.
"Unemployed," Ye Fan waved his hand casually.
