Chapter 067 Department Outing

When this thought popped into Chen Wei's mind, he couldn't help but ponder.

Since when did he start to drift away from his classmates?

He remembered that when he first started university, his relationship with his classmates was quite good, especially with his dormitory mates, Yue Jiawen, Deng Chenxi, and Sun Haoping. Deng Chenxi and Yue Jiawen were both from other provinces, while Sun Haoping, like Chen Wei, was from the same province but a different city.

Deng Chenxi's parents were both civil servants, Yue Jiawen's family was in business, and Sun Haoping's father was a bank leader, while his mother was a high school teacher. It could be said that all three of them came from affluent backgrounds.

However, they never looked down on Chen Wei, who came from a rural area.

During military training, they trained together every day, ate together, and showered together...

After military training, they began their normal university life, attending classes together, eating together, and sleeping together.

In the dormitory, they would discuss which girls in the class were pretty and gossip about various news from the school.

Looking back now, those were really happy times.

Afterward, Deng Chenxi and Yue Jiawen joined the Student Union, and they devoted more of their energy to it, rushing to the Student Union right after class and returning to the dormitory late at night, discussing Student Union matters when they returned.

Chen Wei couldn't get a word in edgewise.

Sun Haoping didn't join the Student Union, but he got a girlfriend...

As a result, Chen Wei could only eat alone, attend classes alone...

On weekends, the three of them were all busy with their own affairs. Chen Wei was initially idle, but then he started working outside. They spent even less time together, and when they returned to the dormitory late at night, they would just exchange a few words before going to sleep.

Chen Wei was not particularly outgoing, not good at chatting, not good at socializing, and even a bit sensitive and inferior. Over time, he talked even less with the other three people in the dormitory, just exchanging greetings when they met.

It was the same with the other dormitories.

In this way, Chen Wei became more and more distant from his classmates...

It couldn't be said whose fault it was; most of the problems lay with Chen Wei.

He had isolated himself, so how could others get close to him?

Thinking of this, Chen Wei took a deep breath, picked up his phone, and sent a message in the class group:

"Sorry, I was on the night shift last night, and the company had a meeting after I got off this morning. I was too tired when I got home, so I slept until now and didn't go to help. I'll definitely come early tomorrow."

"It's okay to know you're sorry! Come and help early tomorrow. We were all exhausted today!"

Wang Li replied immediately, followed by a tired emoticon.

"Hey, the perennial lurker, Old Chen, actually spoke! Rare! Rare! I say, Old Chen, don't just think about making money all the time. Come out occasionally for some fresh air!"

It was Dong Yuhua.

"Classmate Chen, now that you're awake, stop dilly-dallying and hurry over. I've finally come to Yunzhou once, and you don't even offer me hospitality. That's not very polite!"

It was Yue Jiawen.

"Chen Wei, send me a photo to see what you look like now? I've missed you for a year."

It was Jiang Chen, the class committee member.

"As punishment for your absenteeism, you must give me a big red envelope tomorrow! If it's too small, hmm, you'll bear the consequences!"

It was Liu Jia.

...

This message from Chen Wei seemed to have thrown a stone into a calm lake, and the group suddenly became lively.

Watching the messages from his classmates, Chen Wei smiled.

It felt comforting.

It turned out that his classmates had never been distant from him!

He replied to a few messages one by one, telling his classmates that he couldn't skip the company outing tonight because even the leaders were attending, so he could only come tomorrow.

Undoubtedly, he couldn't escape a scolding...

This chat took up quite a bit of time.

Chen Wei told his classmates he had to leave and hurried out.

Yuguo Dock was a high-end restaurant, at least in this area of the city.

When Chen Wei arrived at the restaurant, many members of Group Seven had already arrived.

Even Zhao Yang was there.

He came with his girlfriend, Pan Jing.

The two had been married for more than two years, but they didn't have any children yet.

Pan Jing was five years younger than Zhao Yang, in her late twenties, very beautiful, and dressed very stylishly.

Chen Wei had only heard that she worked at a bank, but he didn't know what she did exactly.

Zhao Yang had reserved a large private room with three tables. There were twenty-five traders from Group Seven, Zhao Yang and his wife, and a few who brought their girlfriends, filling up the tables perfectly.

When Chen Wei came in, Zhao Yang was chatting with Zheng Junpeng and didn't notice him.

It was only Zhou Yi who saw Chen Wei come in and called out, "Boss, come over and sit!"

Zhou Yi was sitting at the table next to them, with Wang Zhaoguo, Pan Zhiyao, Yu Jia, and Lu Tinghai.

Chen Wei walked over.

Before he could sit down, Zhao Yang waved to him and said, "Chen Wei, sit at this table."

Chen Wei shook his head and smiled, walking over.

There was only one seat left at Zhao Yang's table, on Zhao Yang's left.

Clearly, it was reserved for Chen Wei.

Chen Wei didn't hesitate to sit down and glanced at Pan Jing on Zhao Yang's other side, calling her "sister-in-law."

"Hey, Chen Wei, I heard you made nearly one and a half million last month?"

Pan Jing looked at Chen Wei in amazement and said.

Chen Wei smiled faintly and politely said, "It's just luck. Everyone made a lot last month."

Last month, because Chen Wei had called out a few opportunities, several people in Group Seven made over ten thousand dollars, like Zhou Yi who made over thirty thousand, and Zheng Junpeng who made nearly fifty thousand.

"Oh, you don't need to be modest. I've heard about it!" Pan Jing said and stood up, pulling Zhao Yang along, saying, "You get up!"

Zhao Yang stood up inexplicably, and Pan Jing sat in Zhao Yang's seat, pulling the chair closer to Chen Wei's side. Then she leaned forward to Chen Wei and asked with a smile, "Chen Wei, do you have a girlfriend? What's her name? How old is she? Is she pretty? What does she do? Do you live together? Are you getting along well?"

Chen Wei was directly speechless.
