Free Web NovelChapter 699: Chapter 699: Attending the Class Reunion 3
As soon as Wen Duoduo walked in, the room suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked up at her.
The gazes from the women were full of surprise, while the men looked either bewildered, astonished, or confused, probably because they didn’t recognize Wen Duoduo.
It wasn’t until An Tong stood up.
"Oh, Wen Duoduo, I haven’t seen you in years, I didn’t expect you to become so beautiful."
An Tong atypically greeted Wen Duoduo warmly and pulled her hand to sit down on the sofa.
A few other female classmates gathered around.
Wen Duoduo looked up at them and recognized each one; among them were the high school trio, Zheng Rou’er, Zhao Qingying, Gu Ling, and one who transferred in the second year, Qu Zheng.
Back then, Qu Zheng was much like her in terms of being somewhat unapproachable due to transferring schools.
But Qu Zheng had it better because she excelled academically, was a top student, and was well-liked by teachers.
She heard that Qu Zheng had been admitted to a graduate program at a university abroad and was invited to the reunion.
Seeing her, Wen Duoduo couldn’t help but think: I didn’t expect Qu Zheng to come; she always seemed to disdain such occasions.
"Wen Duoduo, I thought you wouldn’t come," Qu Zheng adjusted her eyeglass frames.
"Yeah, I brought a gift for Yinyin and thought I’d see everyone," Wen Duoduo smiled modestly, being polite.
"Haven’t seen you in so many years, you’ve become so beautiful."
Qu Zheng looked at Wen Duoduo enviously, making her a bit embarrassed. She smiled instinctively and said, "I’m just here to see everyone, so... I dressed up a little."
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Zheng Rou’er chimed in sourly, "Duoduo, did you get some cosmetic tweaks done? I remember you didn’t have double eyelids before."
It’s strange; Wen Duoduo had always had monolids, but ever since she started in live streaming after graduating college, countless late nights led to her developing double eyelids over time...
She never imagined that someone would accuse her of having surgery.
She chuckled with a dry smile, "Sorry, Zheng Rou’er. I’m afraid to disappoint you, but these double lids are my own, no surgery involved."
Seeing her denial, Zheng Rou’er just pursed her lips and didn’t say much.
At that moment, Zhao Qingying interjected, "By the way, Wen Duoduo, aren’t you still without a job, doing that live streaming thing? If you ask me, you’re the last one among us classmates without a proper job."
She clicked her tongue disdainfully, feigning sympathy:
"A woman’s youth doesn’t last. You’ve made some money as an internet star these past few years, but who will watch your streams when you grow old?" ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Upon hearing this, Wen Duoduo’s face fell.
Her role as Lu Jinyan’s assistant at Curtis Art College wasn’t something she advertised, not many people knew. freewebnσvel.cѳm
As for live streaming, it was purely her personal interest.
Having something she enjoyed being criticized felt frustrating.
She forced a smile and said, "I just enjoy doing live streaming. I don’t consider it a tool for earning money or a career."
Sensing the sudden chill in the atmosphere, a male classmate quickly stepped in to defuse it, pointing at the big bag in her hand and asking:
"Hey, Wen Duoduo, what’s that huge bag you’re carrying?"
