Chapter 1369 1364: The Goddess and the Loser
"Su Chen, you've made me lose face completely!" Qin Keren, now wearing high heels, was almost as tall as Su Chen.
She whispered fiercely in Su Chen's ear, but he pretended not to hear her.
However, under those watchful eyes, he seemed even more daring.
He gently wrapped his hand around Qin Keren's enticing waist.
"Lose face? I made you lose face? But I feel awesome. Look at those guys' eyes, they wish they could eat me up. Aren't they full of envy, jealousy, and hatred? Hehe, I'm totally pulling off the classic nerd-turned-hero story, chasing the hot girl!" Su Chen secretly enjoyed himself.
The feeling of holding the public goddess in front of everyone was indescribably amazing.
Countless men watched Su Chen with envy, wishing they could rush over and push him aside to take his place.
Qin Keren's beautiful, big eyes flirtatiously rolled at Su Chen, "I wanted you to support me today, not to embarrass me."
"But I feel like I'm really boosting my image right now!" Su Chen said obliviously.
"Ridiculous!"
And just like that, the goddess continued walking with the nerd, drawing attention. Many self-proclaimed gentlemanly men stared at Qin Keren's swaying figure and swallowed hard.
Those men with girlfriends beside them faced complaints from their partners.
But Qin Keren was simply too dazzling. What normal man wouldn't want to take a few more looks?
As the man beside the focal point, Su Chen became the object of silent resentment among all the men present.
That's a goddess, and you're holding her so rudely?
"He Zehua, I'm here, which private room are you in?" Qin Keren suddenly forgot the room for the gathering, so she helplessly called the classmate organizing the event.
He Zehua, the class president during student days and Qin Keren's classmate.
Back in school, He Zehua was notably talented and it was normal for female students to receive love letters.
But the chance of a guy receiving a love letter was much smaller since girls tended to be shy.
Especially beautiful girls, they don't really need to confess, do they?
However, He Zehua became legendary for receiving thirty to forty love letters in one day, comparable to the school beauty.
But Qin Keren never had feelings for him.
During school, everyone was perhaps a bit shy, and He Zehua once confessed privately to Qin Keren, but she rejected him without hesitation.
Maybe it was Qin Keren's rejection that spurred He Zehua to study harder.
Years later, Qin Keren heard some things about He Zehua from classmates; apparently, he got into a top domestic university, graduated, and started a company with friends, doing quite well now.
But... it didn't really matter to her.
Qin Keren dialed He Zehua's number.
He Zehua was excited upon receiving Qin Keren's call and quickly offered to meet her personally.
Before the call ended, about ten meters away in a private room, a man in a suit holding a phone stepped out, looking around the corridor.
Soon, the sight of the well-dressed Qin Keren caught his eye.
He quickly approached, his face full of surprise and joy, "Keren, long time no see, how have you been?"
"He Zehua, long time no see," Qin Keren smiled faintly, but hearing him call her "Keren," she subtly frowned.
She unconsciously glanced at Su Chen beside her, as if fearing he might misunderstand.
Su Chen showed no drastic reaction; his face was calm, and his gaze wasn't focused on He Zehua.
Instead, his eyes wandered over the passing women.
Though they might not be as pretty as Qin Keren, admiring their figures, purely appreciating different 'scenery,' wasn't bad either.
Seeing Su Chen unmoved, not reacting to how He Zehua addressed her, Qin Keren sighed in relief, but then a surge of discontent rose in her heart.
Am I really so insignificant in his mind?
Someone else called her 'Keren,' and he remained indifferent!
Qin Keren had initially been cold towards He Zehua.
He Zehua wasn't a greenhorn anymore; seeing Qin Keren and Su Chen, a flicker of displeasure and strong hostility showed in his eyes.
Qin Keren had always been his goddess.
Whether during student days or now, he had always liked Qin Keren, especially seeing her again; the amazement and admiration were heartfelt.
Women mature at eighteen; compared to her youthful past, Qin Keren now seemed like a ripe fruit.
The allure of a woman blossomed unmistakably.
"Old classmate, are you really going to make me stand here?" Qin Keren smiled at He Zehua.
Seeing Qin Keren's smile, He Zehua was momentarily stunned, secretly praising her beauty, and quickly invited her into the room.
He deliberately ignored Su Chen beside Qin Keren.
But Su Chen was indifferent; he was just there to enjoy free food and drinks today, and to ensure Qin Keren didn't drink too much.
The private room was already filled with a dozen people.
They had about thirty classmates in total.
Only about twenty of them were in Jiangdu now, and those who could spare time to attend were mostly in this room.
The majority were male classmates.
They were at the peak of their lives, each with their own careers, and able to take time from their busy schedules for a gathering largely due to He Zehua's influence, with Qin Keren and others playing a role too.
Qin Keren was a dream girl for most of the boys in their class, and they're no longer in their youthful days.
The once unreachable Qin Banhua, is there now a chance for one favorable encounter?
There's a saying: there's no harm in having class reunions, breaking apart one couple at a time.
"Alright everyone, our lovely Qin Banhua is here, let's give her a warm welcome," He Zehua led the applause.
The private room was mostly filled with male classmates, though several females were present too.
Qin Keren's entrance prompted a lively reception, and her stunning appearance today left the male attendees gawking.
The class beauty, once pretty, now simply irresistible!
