Mei Xing sat at her desk, reviewing architectural blueprints when her phone buzzed.
She glanced at the caller ID and saw Yang Longwen's name. Smiling, she answered, "Yang Longwen, it's been ages! How are you?"
"Mei Xing! I'm great, thanks," he replied. "I heard you've opened up a firm. Congratulations."
Mei Xing smiled and lolled the swivel chair side-to-side. "Thank you."
"You are finally taking the path you forged for your dreams. I'm proud of you," Yang Longwen said.
"Thank you."
"Listen, there's a reunion for our college alumni next weekend. It's been organized to catch up and network. You should definitely come!"
Mei Xing's heart warmed at the thought of reconnecting with old friends. "A reunion? That sounds wonderful. I have lost contact with a lot of my college friends. I would love to reconnect. Count me in!"
