Gary’s family background was excellent. Now he was section chief of the critical department of trade and industrial bureau at such a young age. Besides, his uncle was also a deputy director. Altogether of these made his political future more promising.
“Hello, Chief!”
“Chief, this is my business card!”
“Oh, Chief, Haven’t seen you for a long time. We must drink well today!”
Gary’ s appearance had brought this reunion to another peak. Almost all of the classmates stepped forward to greet him humbly.
Lea seemed a little embarrassed next to Gary. For such a big beauty, almost no one greeted her for the first time.
Their reactions also made her feel the importance of power again.
In China, the idea that power is essential was deeply rooted in people’s minds. Working within the civil system is the first choice for most people.
And even if there was no way to enter the civil system to work, you still had to find ways to establish a relationship with the powers.
Even if there were nothing to do to use this relationship, it would be an honor to tell others that.
“Sit down, please, everyone. We are all old classmates, and we are equal.” Gary spoke slightly in the crowd.
“Let’s go to the next private room, and the arranged food has been served.” At this moment, Terrel suddenly walked in and roared.
“Let’s go.” Gary also said again, and everyone walked out after Terrel.
Gary looked at Chase, who was sitting still and left the room without saying anything.
The other private room was relatively large, with five tables in it. Eight cold dishes were already put on tables, and the main course will be served as soon as all classmates were gathered.
Then all of the people took their seats.
Although there was no deliberate arrangement for everyone’s seat, they all consciously found their suitable seats after their small talk.
People who had a better position or work must sit at the same table, and vice versa.
For example, Gary and Terrel sit together at the main table. Gary was the one with power, and Terrel was the one with much money and with his own company.
The people who had the worst position were all returnees. And the people who had unlimited potential can also be considered as quasi-successful people.
Jayne is very low-profile. When they were chatting before, she only said that she was doing sales work. Everyone thought she was just a salesman.
Even if she used to be a campus belle, she was already married. So no one did not deliberately invite her to sit at the main table, including Gary.
After four years of social exercise, all of the classmates with pleasant dreams had changed.
They eventually changed.
“Huh, there is no spare seat?” Chase and Terrel went back from the bathroom and found that all the other tables were almost full except the main table.
“Let’s go to the main table,” Chase said lightly.
Terrel hesitated and still walked over to the main table with Chase.
There is no spare seat for other tables. They can just sit at the main table.
It was knowing that there were no spare seats for the poor Chase and Larry.
People all looked at them sneeringly.
There were still four empty seats at the main table. Chase and Larry took two empty seats and sat down casually.
The four other people at the main table looked at Chase and Larry weirdly.
Of course, there was no clear stipulation for the arrangement of each seat.
However, as long as you had some social experience, you need to know where you should sit under this situation.
If you want to sit at the main table, you must have the corresponding power. Otherwise, you might be the one who didn’t comply with the rule.
Seeing that Chase was so calm to sit here, Gary frowned. Yesterday he was a little suspicious of Chase’s real identity. Today, he even dared to sit at the main table with himself. Does Chase really have a significant development now?
However, Lea had the opposite idea. She thought that Chase was just a lucky one who knew the boss of Jade 36. So the staff of Jade 36 would respect him a lot. In fact, Chase was just a vagrant.
She even suspected that Chase had to rely on Jayne’s support now.
“Chase, do you remember that you asked my boyfriend to help you find a security job yesterday? Remember to go to Josh Edifice early tomorrow.” Lea said with a smile.
“Oh, no! Chase, are you serious? You even have to ask someone to help you find a security job?”
“Come here and drink a cup with me, Chase. Our company is also short of a security guard, and maybe I can go back to help you work at our company as a security guard.”
Hearing Lea’s words, many people laughed immediately.
Although everyone had good qualities and shouldn’t be so mean, they were angry for Chase and Larry’s wrong choices of their seats.
“Jayne, you can ask your husband to sit here. We can add two more seats to our table.” Jayne’s friend Maisie took Jayne’s hand and whispered.
Jayne was a little embarrassed but shook her head after a while.
If it were one month ago, she would definitely go up and drag Chase here.
But after watching Chase’ s various changes during this period, she recognized the other good aspect of Chase. Chase’s confidence also gave her more courage for him.
Besides, Chase was now a billionaire. To be honest, she felt that Chase’ s money was far more than the sum of all of the presents’.
“It’ s okay, don’t worry about him. He must have his reasons for doing this.” Jayne shook his head and said.
“Jayne. When you chose Chase as your boyfriend and gave up Gary, everyone chased that you don’t have the judgment. After graduation, all the people who heard the news that you married Chase felt crazy and stupid. It was so stupid to choose a guy with no potential to marry. You destroyed your life by yourself!” Maisie sighed.
“I think it’s okay. Chase loves me so much.” Jayne smiled. She recalled that Chase just quarreled with her for their daughter’s illness and Jayne’s unreasonable troublesome before. Most of the time, Chase was always so kind and gentle to her.
Although she also hoped that Chase could make money and become a successful person, she cared more about their love.
After hearing Jayne’s words, Maisie had nothing to say.
Although people sneered at Chase, their words also made Larry felt inferior. He lowered his head worryingly and uncomfortably.
Chase didn’t reply to others but turned to look at Lea and smiled slightly, “Okay, thank you, my old friend!”
Lea looked at Chase contemptuously. In contrast, Gary was a little confused at that time.
Maybe he overthought of Chase, and the truth was that Chase just knew Jade 36’s boss.
Terrel shook his head and wondered, he would never contact with such small potatoes like Chase.
He stood up, looked at the crowd, and said loudly, “Dear my classmates, before drinking, I think we need to ask our Section Chief to give us a toast.”
