I started out as a criminal, and the police relied on me to solve countless cases.

Chapter 257 Things change and people change
Class reunion is the best place to test the quality of relationships.

Today's meal obviously achieved its purpose.

[The wealthy businessman] stood up and picked up the wine glass. As soon as he said he would treat the guests, someone at the table looked unhappy.

The camera quickly switches to a lean middle-aged man in an executive jacket. He is seen shaking the wine in his hand back and forth, and the wine keeps swirling in the glass as his hand shakes.

"Mr. Liu! You are really generous! At this table, you are the richest man. Even if all of us poor brothers put our wealth together, we can't compare to you, the shipping tycoon, Mr. Liu."

This man had sinister eyes and spoke in a slow, sarcastic tone. When he spoke, he just stared at the shaking wine glass in his hand and didn't look at the rich man who was standing straight with the glass in both hands.

"Oh, old classmate, what are you talking about? I'm just a lousy sailor who made a little money by luck. How can I compare with you officials? No matter how hard I work, I'm just an ordinary citizen. Don't you think so, old classmate?"

The rich man thought he was being very considerate and took the initiative to lower himself to smooth things over.

These words sound like clichés, but to him, they are sincere. It is impossible to do shipping business in Jiangcheng without considering other people's faces. He, a so-called rich man, is nothing but a lousy sailor in front of the real old people.

The man held the wine glass and put his hand on his forehead, looking a little annoyed.

Isn't this old classmate of mine in charge of transportation? It's been so long since I last met him, and I actually forgot to try to get close to him, send him gifts, and keep in touch with him.

No wonder people start finding fault with it.

However, the man did not intend to explain more, he was not a child who had just entered society. As for the grudges between adults, especially the communication in officialdom, once the two sides had misunderstandings or even contradictions, explanations would be futile and no one would believe them, let alone expect the other party to forgive him. Any softening language would be regarded as ridicule.

Many times, a simple sentence can cause two people to have an irreconcilable grudge. It sounds nonsensical, but it is often the fact.

Let's wait for an opportunity to communicate privately.

The man smiled at the classmate and continued to toast.

"Hey, I'm sorry for not treating you well. I wanted to invite everyone to the Dongzi Hot Pot where we often went when we were in school to eat beef~~~"

The man felt a little regretful.

He actually wanted to go to the Dongzi Hotpot with his old classmates to reminisce about their youth.

Over the years, he has returned to the campus and the dormitory countless times in his dreams. In his dreams, he can still play with his classmates at school.

But once people get older and get busy, they no longer have the energy to do these things.

The man has a deep understanding of this. Every time he tries to convince himself to take a few days off and go to his alma mater to have some fun, all kinds of things suddenly arise, leaving him unable to cope with the situation.

"My big boss classmate, we have to look forward to everything. Don't think too much about those ridiculous things in our childhood. It's boring. I went back to school once, but things have changed. It's not our place anymore. It would be a waste of time to go back."

A well-maintained woman smiled, picked up the wine glass, stood up and clinked glasses with the man.

This woman's figure doesn't look like that of a person who is almost fifty years old. She has curvy figure, delicate makeup, and is charming and enchanting.

She moved close to the man, put the wine glass to his mouth, and blew gently into his ear.

Just biting the lips can instantly kill many young beauties.

"Squad leader, you must be regretting not agreeing to Mr. Liu's pursuit at that time, otherwise you would be the mistress of Liu Group now!"

"What a shame! The monitor missed out on billions of assets."

"It's not a pity. I think the squad leader is still very capable of fighting with his current looks and figure. Boss Liu will definitely not be able to control himself, haha."

In full view of everyone, the woman's actions were so bold and unrestrained.

This immediately caused the students at the table to laugh and make a noise.

Unexpectedly, the man's eyes changed, and he immediately kept a safe distance from the woman, then very gentlemanly toasted the woman with a glass of wine.

"Sergeant, if you continue like this, my wife will punish me when I get home." The man smiled politely.

He really didn't want to let his wife down. There was no one in the world who loved him more than that woman.

I did pursue this charming and attractive class monitor when I was in school, but that was all in the past.

Moreover, with his years of experience, he could naturally see what kind of role his female squad leader played.

But men still don't care about these.

He treated the people at this table as old classmates and good friends.

The man is not a brainless person, on the contrary, he is very smart, but he does not want to use those cunning and shrewd calculations in the business world to deal with his old classmate.

To him, these people are more than just classmates.

They represent one's youthful memories, which are more valuable than anything else.

"Haha, Mr. Liu is really calm. I think my sister-in-law must be prettier than me, otherwise how could Mr. Liu be so devoted to her."

The monitor is quite relaxed.

Since the other party is unwilling to get close to her, she is not willing to take the initiative to get close to him. What men hate most is women who take the initiative to get close to them. She knows this best.

But even if I was already angry.

But she controlled herself well and tried her best not to get angry.

"Squad leader, don't be angry, I'm...

How could the man not see that the squad leader was angry? Just as he was about to speak, he was pulled by his childhood friend Wu next to him.

Wu first invited everyone to eat, then pulled the man to his side and whispered.

"Can you be more careful? Our female squad leader has been in society for so many years, and her reputation has become as bad as a cesspool. If you get involved with her, you'll be in trouble. And those guys on the opposite side, seeing that you are the big boss, their eyes are red like wolves, and they can't wait to pounce on you and bite you."

"How is that possible? It's not very nice of you to say bad things about people behind their backs, Old Wu."

The man didn't take it seriously and whispered to Wu: "After dinner, let's go to Tianxia Renjian to relax and then play mahjong."

"Lao Liu, your skills are not good enough. I lost hundreds of thousands last time."

"It's only a few hundred thousand. Hey, this money is just pocket money. It's not a big deal. At most I'll lose you another few hundred thousand this time. You don't have to worry about holding my money.'

The man patted his childhood friend on the shoulder, and the two of them clinked glasses, and immediately felt much better.

After all, they are good brothers who grew up together and wear the same pants, and they always think about themselves.

Isn't it just some money? The man thought so. Even if Old Wu asked him to borrow money directly, he would not blink an eye and give him as much as he wanted, and he would not even pay it back.

"Haha, Lao Liu, you are the big boss, hundreds of thousands are nothing, haha, you know how many dishes I have to cook~~~"

Wu looked a little lonely.

“Brother, I will take over the restaurant right away and let you be the manager.”

The man waved his hand and asked his childhood friend to continue drinking.

He didn't notice the fierceness that flashed in the other person's eyes.
