Chapter 57 Meeting Old Friends

He was a handsome young man dressed in a tailored Armani suit, exuding elegance and nobility. He walked quickly to the waiter and handed him a red invitation card.

"This is my invitation." The youth smiled.

"It's you, Mr. Han! Sorry to have bothered your friend. Please come in!" The waiter's eyes were shocked, and he made a gesture of inviting respectfully after seeing the name on the invitation.

"I hate people who act like snobs. Let's go upstairs together." The youth smiled at Li Dalong and then walked into the elevator.

Li Dalong and his companion immediately caught up with him.

The handsome youth obviously said those words to the fat boss and the coquettish lady to hear. Both of them could not help but feel provoked and angry.

"Can the invitation bring friends? Isn't Xingyue International known as the top social venue? Wouldn't it be easy for people to get in? Who is Mr. Han? He is so arrogant." After Li Dalong and the other two got into the elevator, the coquettish woman opened her mouth unhappily and questioned the waiter.

Facing coquettish lady's question, the waiter's face was very calm, and he said lightly, "Other people may not be able to bring friends, but this Mr. Han definitely can. As the second son of the Han family, he can go to any place within the 18th floor of our Xingyue International."

"Han family? Which Han family?" The coquettish woman was still a little confused.

"So it's the Han family! No wonder." The fat boss beside him had already thought of something. His expression changed abruptly.

Inside the elevator.

"Many thanks." Li Dalong had intended to call Liu Xiangru. However, it was much more troublesome to ask her to deal with him. Right now, he had saved a lot of trouble.

"It's nothing. It's just a piece of cake. I just don't like that woman. By the way, don't walk around or have conflicts with anyone when you're arrived. Just eat well, play well, drink well," the youth said with a smile.

As the second son of the Han family, Han Junsheng knew almost all the celebrities in the upper class. Obviously, he had not seen Li Dalong. Even if he just helped Li Dalong, he just didn't like the behaviors of the coquettish woman. In his eyes, the possibility of Li Dalong and his wife coming to eat and drink was higher.

Li Dalong smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that he disdain upon him. However, this young man was kind, and he did not bother to explain.

Yu Jingrui, who was beside him, also winked at him. Apparently, she was questioning him that the reason why he took her to Xingyue International Entertainment today was because he came here.

Li Dalong patted Yu Jingrui's hand, indicating her not to worry.

Soon, they reached the 15th floor.

The youth ignored them and walked straight into the hall, followed by Li Dalong and his companion.

The entire 15th floor was like a large exhibition. There was a large stage shining with lights. In front of the stage, there was a table with names on it. Apparently, it had been arranged by the organizer long ago.

The press conference hadn't started yet, and no one had taken a seat. Behind the exhibition was the free rest area. Almost all the people who had arrived were here, talking to each other, tasting delicacies, or drinking alone.

Those who were able to come here were all celebrities in Dragon City. Their net worth was at least tens of millions. These people had their social circle. Many of them were known each other. They were chatting about something in groups of twos and threes. There were young men who came with their fathers to see the scene.

It was the first time for Li Dalong and Yu Jingrui to come to such an occasion, so they were slightly unaccustomed to it.

"The fruits and pastries over there seem to be good. Let's go and try them." After all, Li Dalong was a man, making a timely decision. Otherwise, the two would stand there like fools.

"Li Dalong?"

Suddenly, someone called Li Dalong's name behind his back.

Li Dalong turned around and saw two faces that surprised him and evoked some memories.

He was a man, more handsome than he was, tall and slim, dressed in a designer suit. Next to him was a cute and lovable girl. She wore a burgundy evening dress with the most dazzling was crystal pendant on her chest.

Dong Guangjun and Zhang Xiaoran!

Li Dalong didn't expect to meet them here.

Both were Li Dalong's high school classmates. In addition, Zhang Xiaoran happened to be Li Dalong's deskmate and his first love!

When he was in the first year of high school, Li Dalong was still a diligent student. He was good at sports and attracted his deskmate Zhang Xiaoran. They got along with each other every day. Gradually, they had hazy feelings for each other.

After a semester, the two of them confirmed the relationship between lovers.

In the second semester, their relationship gradually heated up then they became more and more intimate.

Later, during winter holiday, Li Dalong helped Zhang Xiaoran on lessons. Later, no one knew who kissed whom. Finally, both of them gave each other their first time!

First love was a memory that no one could forget, especially for Li Dalong. At that time, he promised to give Zhang Xiaoran a better future.

However, the reality was cruel. After the second grade, the two have relatively little contact. At that time, Li Dalong's family conditions were difficult. So he dropped out of school and went out to work during the second half of the semester.

During Li Dalong left the school, Zhang Xiaoran broke up with him.

"You can't give me a wonderful future." That was the reason Zhang Xiaoran told Li Dalong when they broke up. Indeed, a person who was about to drop out of school had no future at all!

It was a huge blow to Li Dalong, but he had to accept it.

Later, he heard about the news of Zhang Xiaoran in a group of high school classmates. He also learned that his classmate Dong Guangjun had been pursuing her. It seemed that they had also been admitted to the same university in the college entrance examination. After that, he did not hear any news about them.

Li Dalong never expected to meet his first love on such an occasion.

Seeing the two of them appear in pairs, it seemed that Zhang Xiaoran had agreed to Dong Guangjun's pursuit.

"What a coincidence."

Li Dalong barely calmed down the waves in his heart and greeted the two people. When his eyes turned to Zhang Xiaoran, he still could not overlap his former pure and lovely deskmate with the figure of the fashionable girl in front of him.

Zhang Xiaoran looked at Li Dalong with evasive eyes, while Dong Guangjun gave Li Dalong a meaningful look, narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile, "Dalong, I heard that you went to a restaurant to be a chef when you dropped out of school. You did a good job and now you are working as a chef at Astronomy Imperial Hotel? The salary here must be very high!"

Dong Guangjun knew something about Li Dalong's family background. He didn't think that Li Dalong was qualified to participate in this gala in just four years. He recalled that the woman he loved was once Li Dalong's woman, Dong Guangjun had a grudge against him and wanted to beat Li Dalong as soon as he found an opportunity.
