Chapter 280: Chapter 190: The Return of the Dragon King—Old Shen!

The other side.

Shen Qiushan drove straight to his old flame’s house.

This was his first time coming here since he started college.

It fit that old saying perfectly.

One day apart feels like three years.

Shen Qiushan diligently caught up on the lessons he missed!

The storm subsided.

The bed returned to calm.

Shen Qiushan silently lit a cigarette.

Chen Xiangyu lazily turned over after a while: "How’s university life?"

"Pretty good, being with young people every day makes me feel much younger too!"

"You really are getting younger and younger, not like people our age at all."

Chen Xiangyu genuinely marveled; she certainly had a say in this matter.

Shen Qiushan chuckled; even young people couldn’t compare to his physical state.

After all, he’s a man with a cheat code!

"Did you see the messages in the high school group?"

"Shi Dehai is organizing a 20th-anniversary reunion. Are you going?"

Chen Xiangyu changed the topic.

"Not going."

"Nothing worth gathering for!"

Shen Qiushan exhaled a puff of smoke.

Those so-called class reunions had long lost their meaning, merely a battlefield for those who’ve done well to show off.

It also provided an opportunity for scheming men and women to fool around. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

After attending once, Shen Qiushan never went again.

Even though now he was the most successful among his high school classmates, he had no desire to show off.

It was meaningless and only a waste of time.

"I knew you wouldn’t go. Shi Dehai @ you several times in the group, and you didn’t even respond."

"I’ve long muted the class group, didn’t check the messages at all."

Shen Qiushan gently shook his head.

When he was driving taxis and delivering takeout, no one actively reached out to him.

Having been out of touch for many years, there was no need to reconnect.

As Shen Qiushan was thinking, his phone suddenly chimed with a friend request from his high school class group.

Shen Qiushan glanced at it and saw it was Shi Dehai, his high school class president.

Before Shen Qiushan became a famous writer, Shi Dehai was considered the most successful among their high school classmates.

For many years they had no interaction, and Shi Dehai never reached out to Shen Qiushan. They weren’t even WeChat friends until now when he actively added him as a friend.

"Speak of the devil, and the devil appears!"

Shen Qiushan remarked.

"Shi Dehai?"

"Yeah."

Shen Qiushan nodded, accepting the friend request.

Being classmates, it seemed unreasonable not to at least add him on WeChat.

[Old Shen, everyone’s talking about you in the group]

[They all say they want the famous writer’s autograph and a photo with you at the reunion tomorrow!]

As soon as the friend request was accepted, Shi Dehai familiarly sent a message, subtly inviting Shen Qiushan to the class reunion.

Everyone wants your autograph and a photo tomorrow; are you going?

But Shen Qiushan was not buying it: Too busy with work these days, can’t make it to the reunion, but give my regards to everyone!

It seemed Shi Dehai expected Shen Qiushan wouldn’t attend; he immediately replied: Understandable, you’re a big writer now, busy is normal, let’s hang out another day, my treat!

Shen Qiushan gave a perfunctory "OK" before setting the phone aside.

"Shi Dehai just wants to use the reunion as an excuse to add me on WeChat."

Seeing Shi Dehai’s reply, Shen Qiushan could already guess his main intention; it’d be great if he attended the reunion, and if not, it at least justified adding him as a friend without seeming too opportunistic.

"Shi Dehai seems to be running an MCN company recently, probably wants to piggyback on your fame."

Chen Xiangyu speculated.

Shen Qiushan gently shook his head, inwardly reflecting: Truly, the poor are ignored in bustling cities, while the rich even have distant relatives in the deep mountains!

The next day.

After finally making the visit, Shen Qiushan was pulled by Chen Xiangyu to do morning exercises again.

After exercising.

The two had breakfast together.

Only then did Shen Qiushan leave his old flame’s house.

Today was the last day of the National Day holiday. Shen Qiushan went home, picked up his two kids, and returned to Sanjiang University.

By communicating with Liu Hongyu, the Vice President in charge of logistics, Shen Qiushan got his son Shen Yixiao a bed on the first floor of their dormitory.

This way, he wouldn’t have to deal with stairs; the teaching buildings have elevators, so it was easy for Shen Yixiao, with his electric wheelchair, to go up and down floors.

However, there was a small twist.

The first floor’s dorms were full, so Liu Hongyu simply got Shen Yixiao placed in the dorm of the dorm manager.

The dorm manager’s place had two rooms; the outer room was his workspace, the entrance to the dormitory.

The inner room was about 20 square meters, with two single beds.

The conditions were better than those in a regular student dorm.

However, over the next month, Shen Yixiao had a 62-year-old roommate!

He also got the nickname "Uncle Shen" because he lived in the dorm manager’s place.

Of course, that’s another story.

After settling Shen Yixiao in, Shen Qiushan headed to the commercial street by the university’s back gate.

There was a pub for sale, and before his trip to Beijing, Shen Qiushan had already been in contact with the bar’s owner.

He wanted to take over the bar, giving Lin Xiamo a fixed place to sing.

It was also a way to support Lin Xiamo’s dream!

But, to be honest.

If Lin Xiamo performed at the bar, it was bound to be a profitable move.

So, saying he was supporting her dream wasn’t entirely accurate.
