The group of friends chatted while they waited.
Wei Tianyu was beaming with pride, as if he were the one being praised.
Whenever someone complimented Lin Feng, he would nod along as if the praise was for him.
"Old Lin is even driving a BMW 7 Series now. He’s definitely going to make a lot of money."
Wei Tianyu said cheerfully.
"Speaking of which, Old Lin is really doing well for himself. It’s one thing to be making a small profit on his investments, but now his love life is blooming too."
"Hey, Old Wei, I heard you guys got to see Lin Feng’s girlfriend at the class reunion."
A few of the guys gathered around, their faces full of gossip.
Seeing their expressions, Wei Tianyu was reminded of how he himself had been eager to meet Su Ruoxi.
’These little rascals...’
Wei Tianyu decided to really string them along and whet their appetites.
"Of course I’ve met her. Old Lin has pretty good taste."
Wei Tianyu said with a mysterious look.
"Quick, tell us what she looks like!"
A guy next to him leaned in.
"Old Lin’s bringing her over in a bit. I can’t really do her justice with words."
"Anyway, when I saw her, I just thought Old Lin got ridiculously lucky."
"She’s a total goddess."
Wei Tianyu clicked his tongue.
"We’re from the art academy, right? We see a lot of pretty girls, but none of them are as beautiful as Old Lin’s girlfriend!"
The more Wei Tianyu hyped her up,
the more curious the other guys became.
Just as they were all talking, Lin Feng arrived, having followed the location Wei Tianyu had sent him.
"Old Wei, Old Chen, you’re all here?"
Lin Feng walked in with a big smile and greeted them.
Su Ruoxi, who was walking behind Lin Feng, also smiled gracefully and said hello.
Su Ruoxi had met Wei Tianyu before, but she also saw some unfamiliar faces in the room.
Lin Feng wrapped an arm around Su Ruoxi and smilingly introduced her to everyone in the room.
"This is Su Ruoxi, my girlfriend!"
That rascal Wei Tianyu was the quickest on the uptake, immediately calling out, "Sister-in-law!"
The other guys, who were still stunned silent by Su Ruoxi’s beauty and hadn’t yet come to their senses,
all followed Wei Tianyu’s lead and chimed in.
The moment Lin Feng pushed the door open, everyone’s eyes had been fixed on Su Ruoxi.
Logically speaking, it wasn’t as if they hadn’t seen pretty girls after starting college.
But a stunning beauty like Su Ruoxi, the kind you could never forget after just one look,
was truly a rare sight.
Especially since Su Ruoxi wasn’t shy at all when she entered; she was poised and graceful.
The aura she carried was extraordinary.
A beauty with both top-tier Appearance and an elegant demeanor—it left everyone in the room dumbfounded.
Lin Xiaoman, who was off to the side, used to tag along and play with Lin Feng all the time back in high school.
She recognized some of the people in the room.
"Yo, you all look like you’ve been struck dumb. Looks like my sister-in-law stunned you all!"
Lin Xiaoman joked as she pulled Su Ruoxi over to an empty seat.
Only then did the others finally snap out of it.
"Not bad, Old Lin!"
"Now I finally believe what Old Wei said. You really did get ridiculously lucky!"
One of the guys wailed as he nudged Lin Feng’s shoulder.
The jealousy in his words was already palpable.
Seeing the envious looks from the others,
Lin Feng just smiled slightly. "Alright, if you’re that jealous, go find your own girlfriends in college!"
Wei Tianyu, who was right behind Lin Feng, gritted his teeth and retorted, "If beauties like sister-in-law were so easy to find, who would still be jealous of you, Old Lin!"
Lin Feng, naturally, soaked up all their envy, jealousy, and hate.
"Alright, alright."
"Aren’t we here for dinner? Let’s get the food on the table!"
Lin Xiaoman, at the side, rubbed her empty little tummy.
She interrupted the guys’ jealous remarks.
"I thought only us girls got all envious, jealous, and hateful. I didn’t expect you guys to be the same!"
Lin Xiaoman said with a teasing smile.
Wei Tianyu handed the menu to Lin Feng. "Old Lin, ask sister-in-law what she wants to eat. We can order some more."
Su Ruoxi quickly said, "Anything is fine with me, don’t go to any trouble!"
These guys had been good friends with Lin Feng back in high school.
They were all decent people.
However, seeing Lin Feng win the heart of such a beauty made them all feel a little disgruntled.
With Wei Tianyu leading the charge, they actually started telling embarrassing stories about Lin Feng from high school.
The more Su Ruoxi listened, the wider her eyes grew.
’I never would have imagined that Lin Feng was so amusing back in high school.’
"This is really letting me see a different side of you!"
After hearing another one of Lin Feng’s high school exploits, Su Ruoxi looked at him with sparkling eyes.
Lin Feng shot Wei Tianyu and the others a helpless glare. "You guys are going to air all my dirty laundry!"
Wei Tianyu and the others roared with laughter. "We’re just helping sister-in-law get the full, 360-degree picture of you!"
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly and noticed Lin Xiaoman beside him, who was focused on devouring her food.
"Looks like my sister’s the better one here. She actually came to eat!"
Lin Xiaoman swallowed the food in her mouth. "Actually, I already told her all your embarrassing stories from home!"
Hearing this, Su Ruoxi, who was sitting next to her, covered her mouth and snickered.
"You guys are really my best buddies and my dearest sister!"
Lin Feng threw up his hands.
Although Wei Tianyu and the others wanted to chat more with Lin Feng,
they also knew they couldn’t stay too late,
especially since there were girls present.
So, they basically broke up around eight or nine in the evening.
After everyone else had left, Wei Tianyu was still there.
Wei Tianyu stopped Lin Feng and stuffed a card directly into his hand.
"Old Lin, this is all my private savings, bro. I’m giving you my entire net worth!"
Wei Tianyu said with a smile.
"The PIN is my birthday. Take it and practice!"
At the last class reunion, Wei Tianyu had mentioned asking Lin Feng to help him invest.
’Who would have thought he still remembered.’
Lin Feng didn’t stand on ceremony with Wei Tianyu and accepted the card directly.
"In that case, I won’t be polite. I’ll use your money to practice. I’ll try my best to lose a little less for you!"
Lin Feng said jokingly to Wei Tianyu.
Unexpectedly, Wei Tianyu thought Lin Feng was being serious and replied with a pained expression:
"It’s fine, just leave me half!"
"In the future, Lin Feng, when you become a big shot in the financial world, don’t forget me, the one who let you practice!"
Wei Tianyu’s words made Lin Feng laugh in exasperation.
He punched Wei Tianyu’s shoulder. "Don’t worry, this investment is a guaranteed profit, no losses!"
Wei Tianyu didn’t believe any investment was a guaranteed profit.
He just assumed Lin Feng was trying to save face.
So he just gave a perfunctory nod.
Lin Feng couldn’t be bothered to explain to Wei Tianyu.
’Anyway, when Wei Tianyu comes to collect his money in the future, he’ll know which of my words were true.’
Sitting in Lin Feng’s car, Su Ruoxi looked at Lin Xiaoman, who had fallen asleep next to her, and said,
"About your sister’s worries, I think you should probably have a talk with her!"
Lin Feng glanced at Lin Xiaoman, who was sleeping soundly in the back seat.
"Did she say anything to you?"
Lin Feng pulled the car over to the side of the road.
Su Ruoxi briefly told Lin Feng about the uncertainty Lin Xiaoman had expressed during their hike today.
"I have been neglecting Xiaoman a bit lately. I’ll find a chance to talk to her."
Lin Feng was silent for a moment after listening before he finally spoke.
Su Ruoxi nodded and didn’t say anything more.
After all, this was Lin Xiaoman’s business.
All Su Ruoxi could do was offer a little bit of guidance.
