An Lan, who was standing in the back, was stunned. Xu Baohan wouldnât be going too, right? As conservative as he was, he wouldnât be going, and this bunch of seniors might not join them either.
Lin Hua had the same thought and he had just been polite by asking.
But to their surprise, Zheng Jun agreed. âSure, the more the better. Have you guys booked a private room?â
âNot yet...â
âWeâll do it. Iâll call and book a big room.â Zheng Jun looked at the others. âWhat do you guys think?â
âItâs good, itâs good.â Xing Yuan nodded hurriedly. âWeâre all alumni. Fate has brought us together tonight...â
He paused, suddenly remembering that there was a difficult person sitting at the table tonight, so he looked at Xu Baohan. âBohan, you donât have any objections, right?â
âNo,â Xu Baohan replied calmly.
The others were shocked. They had thought that he would object, or that he wouldnât go with them, but they hadnât expected him to agree.
âIf thatâs the case, then inform us when youâre ready to go,â Lin Hua said. âWeâre going back to our room. Enjoy your meal.â
âNo problem. Have a good meal.â
After Lin Hua and the rest left, Xing yuan whispered into Xu Baohanâs ear, âI remember that you didnât like to participate in recreational activities. We might even drink later. If you donât like it, you can leave after the dinner...â
âIâll go with you. Itâs rare for everyone to get together, donât spoil the fun because of me,â Xu Baohan said as he stroked his teacup.
â...â
Xing Yuan was speechless.
A person who had been spoiling the fun actually told him not to spoil the fun? Was there any justice in this world?
At this moment, Xiang Chongyuan, another single guy in the room, said, âDid you guys see the pretty girls in the neighboring room? Guys, please help me get a girlfriend when weâre in the KTV tonight.â
Zheng Jun smiled. âI only saw one pretty girl. Sheâs a quite famous lawyer.â
âYouâre talking about An Lan, right?â Yun Tian said, âShe doesnât seem to have a boyfriend, maybe youâll have a chance.â
Xu Baohan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, âA prosecutor with a lawyer? Thatâs not very good, theyâre like sworn enemies in court. Besides, you donât live in Xia City. Will it work?â
Xiang Chongyuan felt a bucket of cold water being poured over him. Xing Yuan coughed lightly, âThatâs hard to say. Perhaps junior An likes Chongyuanâs type. Nothing can stand between them if theyâre fated to be together. Ah, right, they came here to propose a toast to us. As seniors, we should send a representative over to return the favor.â
Zheng Jun gave Xiang Chongyuan a signal with his eyes. Just as Xiang Chongyuan was about to get up, Xu Baohan suddenly stood up. âIâll go.â
Everyone looked at him strangely.
âAs a senior, I want to test the the juniorsâ knowledge in criminal law.â Xu Baohan went out of the room with his teacup.
Zheng Jun said, âI pity these juniors.â
Xing Yuan rolled his eyes at him. âAre you stupid? Canât you see that heâs acting strangely?â
Everyone was stunned and understood instantly. Xiang Chongyuan cried, âDonât tell me Xu Baohan likes the same woman as I do?â
Everyone was silent. Poor junior sister An.
Yun Tianâs face went stiff and almost couldnât maintain the smile.
...
In the Peony Chamber.
An Lan was chatting with Cao Meng when Chen Ke suddenly stood up from the opposite side and said mischievously, âMiss An, since you donât have a boyfriend and I donât have a girlfriend, can you give me a chance? Donât worry, I have nothing but money.â
