Chapter 161: Chapter 0161: Not Delivering Packages Anymore, Right?
Whispers of speculation buzzed in Ye Xunhuan’s ears, and he couldn’t help but sneer internally. Others might not understand Mu Tiange’s intentions, but Ye Xunhuan was crystal clear—the guy definitely wasn’t acting with good intentions.
What was he plotting in his mind!
However, Ye Xunhuan didn’t speak up; instead, he cooperatively stood aside, allowing everyone to guess as they pleased.
Just then, Chu Ji suddenly spoke up, "He is Ye Xunhuan, what’s there to guess about!"
"Ye ’Overlord’?"
The crowd erupted as if a pot had just boiled over, and they began whispering to one another. Although they knew that Ye Xunhuan would be returning today, they had not anticipated him showing up with Chu Ji.
Watching the lively discussions among the crowd, Mu Tiange said, "Correct, he is our school’s ’Overlord’—Ye Xunhuan!"
As soon as Mu Tiange finished speaking, Ye Xunhuan’s face lit up with a smile as he said, "It’s been a long time, my old classmates. How have you been?" 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
It was only after hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words that everyone snapped back to reality.
"’Overlord’, how come you came with Chu, the class monitor? Have you been in contact with each other all along?" A fairly attractive woman spoke with a smile, "Or perhaps, are you and Chu, the class monitor, together now?"
"Impossible, if the ’Overlord’ were together with the class monitor, I would have definitely known about it!"
"Exactly, back then the ’Overlord’ was most fond of Su Guyan!"
In no time, the crowd started fervently discussing past events.
Unintentional words can have intentional effects, and upon hearing the name Su Guyan, Ye Xunhuan’s expression flickered slightly but soon returned to normal, a faint smile resting on his face.
"What’s so impossible about that? Su Guyan is married to Mu Tiange now!" A man dressed in a suit and wearing glasses commented, "Plus, secret relationships are quite the trend these days; who knows if the class monitor has been seeing the ’Overlord’ behind the scenes all this time."
"Indeed, indeed. Back then, the class monitor did seem to have a bit of a secret crush on the ’Overlord’..."
Ye Xunhuan seemed to be the magnet for topics, his appearance immediately sparking conversations about that green and naive past among many people.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chu Ji’s face gradually flushed with a hint of red, "I just ran into him at the entrance!"
"Is that so?"
The crowd couldn’t help but tease.
"Why is your face red, then?"
"Can’t a person have thin skin?"
Just at that moment, Mu Tiange chimed in, "Everyone must have misunderstood, I can vouch that Chu Ji and Xunhuan probably don’t have anything going on. I have actually seen Xunhuan’s girlfriend!"
"Ah, Mu, you’ve really seen the ’Overlord’s girlfriend? What’s she like?"
"Yeah, what’s she like, what’s she like?"
Mu Tiange looked toward Ye Xunhuan and whispered, "Xunhuan, I’m not mistaken, am I? She must be your girlfriend, right?"
Ye Xunhuan nodded, "Yes!"
"Since that’s the case, then I must have a good talk with everyone here." Mu Tiange suddenly perked up, "The ’Overlord’s girlfriend is extremely beautiful, certainly no less than any one of you!"
"’Overlord’, why didn’t you bring her along? We could all hang out together and get a good look at the woman the ’Overlord’ has chosen," One of the women said with a grin, "Is she anything like Yu Ji?"
"The ’Overlord’ must be afraid that after we see his girlfriend, we’ll decide to be good brothers with him!"
The crowd exchanged words, teasing each other in neither a loud nor quiet manner, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
However, upon hearing that Ye Xunhuan had a girlfriend, the expressions of two people dimmed: one was Chu Ji and the other was Su Guyan, who had been sitting quietly in a corner all along.
Initially, Su Guyan had not wanted to attend this gathering. After all, everyone knew about her past relationship with Ye Xunhuan, and now she was married to Mu Tiange.
But the thought of seeing Ye Xunhuan made her unable to resist coming, and she was also very worried that Mu Tiange would take advantage of this so-called gathering to humiliate Ye Xunhuan.
After a brief joke, a woman immediately hopped over, "Hegemon, do you still remember me?"
"You are..." Ye Xunhuan said, furrowing his brow.
"You really forgot about me? When you played basketball, I always supported you!"
"Pfft, San Shui, like the Hegemon had eyes for you back then!"
"As if he had eyes for you!"
"Are you Kang Miao?"
"Wow, Hegemon, you still remember me?" Kang Miao said excitedly.
Ye Xunhuan replied with a gentle smile, "I remember you used to be quite skinny and also... "
"Showing your teeth..."
Someone added, instantly causing everyone to burst into laughter.
"You bunch of bastards, always holding on to these things, so annoying!" Kang Miao stomped her foot in irritation.
Looking at Kang Miao in front of him, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but marvel inwardly, truly, a girl transforms eighteen times between childhood and womanhood, changing for the better—what used to be an ugly duckling is almost a swan now.
It seemed that all his classmates were doing well.
Then, everyone kept interacting with Ye Xunhuan, and through their introductions, he slowly started recalling quite a few people.
"Hegemon, where have you been all these years? How come there wasn’t any news from you?" asked a man with a refined appearance, dressed neatly and looking at Ye Xunhuan.
"Served in the military for a few years, then went abroad," Ye Xunhuan said with a smile!
"No wonder there was no news about you!"
"Hegemon, what were you doing overseas?"
"Just getting by," Ye Xunhuan replied offhandedly.
"Seems like the Hegemon doesn’t want to tell us," said a woman whose name Ye Xunhuan couldn’t recall, chuckling. "But the Hegemon must be doing well; back in our class, you were the one the teachers had high hopes for!"
That wasn’t false; although Ye Xunhuan wasn’t a model student when he was in school, he had to admit he was academically excellent. Every time after the exams, the teachers would use Ye Xunhuan as an example to teach others a lesson.
"Hegemon, what are you doing now—are you running a company?"
Ye Xunhuan shook his head, "No, just getting by in a company."
"Must be some big company, right?"
"Imperial Diagram Group!"
"The famous star enterprise, known for its shopping website, Imperial Diagram?"
Ye Xunhuan nodded!
The Imperial Diagram Group was fairly well-known around Jiangzhong City, with many people aware of it.
"Hegemon, you’re not delivering packages at Imperial Diagram Group, are you?"
A robust voice immediately rose.
Upon hearing this voice, everyone instantly turned to look towards the source of the sound.
They saw an ordinary-looking young man clad in designer wear from head to toe, sizing up Ye Xunhuan non-stop.
