Rebirth: My Mother is a Virgin Mary

Chapter 296: Some Cats and Dogs

The party was scheduled for the eighth night of the Lunar New Year, at the roast duck restaurant we often go to.

I rested my chin on my hand and watched the whole family busying around in front of me. I played with my newly styled hair with one hand, and kept muttering: I'm just going to a class reunion, why is there so much trouble? It wasn't so grand when I went on a blind date with Chen Jingxing.

Ms. Lin and her second aunt had a quarrel over the outfit Ms. Lin matched...

Ms. Lin: "I have been selling clothes for so many years, how could I not know what kind of clothes would look good on my daughter?"

Second Aunt: "What's the point of saying suitable or not? What's suitable is good-looking! How old is Lin Lin? Why are you dressing her up so maturely? She hasn't even started working yet!"

"My daughter has such a good temperament and figure, she has to go the goddess route! The cute little white rabbit, that's not suitable for her!" Ms. Lin retorted with her hands on her hips.

The second aunt was not to be outdone, "What's wrong with a 20-year-old college student being cute? Students should act like students!"

"Clothes make the man, and Lin Lin has to stand out when she attends her first class reunion! Otherwise, everyone will think that Lin Lin is easy to chase!"

Second Aunt stopped talking, frowned, then nodded in agreement. She was convinced by Ms. Lin.

Actually, I am satisfied with the outfit that Ms. Lin matched, and I like it very much. But I like the way Ms. Lin and my second aunt quarreled and made noise even more, which was very cute.

When I put on the outfit that Ms. Lin prepared for me, my second aunt, who didn't agree with it at first, couldn't help but give me a thumbs up.

A Prussian blue turtleneck sweater, a retro plaid A-line long skirt in the same color, a brown leather belt around the waist, and a pair of brown leather high-heeled short boots on the feet. The whole outfit and my newly made French egg roll hairstyle complement each other perfectly. Cheng Xinyuan watched from the side and praised repeatedly, "You deserve those people to be obsessed with you~"

Qin Luotian, who was standing by, had his head down the whole time, so he couldn't see his expression clearly. After a long while, he said, "No... it's too beautiful..."

I was applying lipstick and ignored his "sarcastic remarks". I was very satisfied with myself.

Ms. Lin wanted me to carry the LV bag that Aunt Jing had given me before, but I refused without a second thought. My vanity has already been satisfied with my appearance, and if I carry a brand-name bag, even if I don't feel anything about it, I can't be sure that my old classmates will not say something. We are all students after all, and it would not be good to cause any more "bloodshed".

While Ms. Lin and I were still talking, Luo Ning had already arrived at the store door and waved at me. Ms. Lin was about to warmly invite her to come in and sit down, but after thinking about it, she held back. The children had said before that she was too enthusiastic, so she had to restrain herself.

There was obvious surprise in Luo Ning's eyes when he saw me. I put on my coat, picked up my small bag, and walked out gracefully with my family members blessing me with "Have fun!"

"Oh my god! Cheng Lin! She really gets prettier and prettier as she grows up!" Luo Ning walked around me and couldn't help but exclaim. "We need to let those people who say you're only good at studying see that our Cheng Lin is a natural beauty!"

After saying that, she carefully moved closer to me and said, "Hey, your family didn't say anything about your class reunion this time, right?"

"No, they are very supportive. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be able to attend this party. You know, I don't really want to go..."

"Oh, that's good! To be honest, I was scared when I stood at your door, afraid that your father would scold me for no reason again." Luo Ning couldn't help but shiver. After that incident in her senior year of high school, she had a very bad impression of Cheng Xingmin, and was even a little scared.

I smiled faintly, "Not anymore, because they are divorced, and it's not easy for you to see him even if you want to."

"Really? That's great!" Luo Ning was visibly happy, but he scratched his head embarrassedly. "Although it's said that 'it's better to tear down ten temples than to destroy a marriage', I think it's a good idea to get a divorce from the bottom of my heart! I don't know what happened in your family, but I can feel how depressed you were throughout high school... Do you know? Your depression was overwhelming, and you tried your best to suppress it but couldn't. And... I can vaguely see the injuries on your body, on your arms or the back of your neck... But you look pretty good now. I think it was right to invite you to the class reunion this time! I wanted to invite you before, but I couldn't say it after all."

Luo Ning said a lot of things with great enthusiasm. I smiled at her sincere look and thought that she really hasn't changed at all in these years. We haven't seen each other since we graduated from high school in the previous life. The occasional contact is only on WeChat. I don't know how Cheng Xinyuan's injury got to her ears. She transferred 2,000 yuan to me on WeChat. I didn't take it, but I have to remember this timely help. She studied Chinese language and literature at a normal university in another province. After graduation, she chose to teach in the mountainous areas. She is a person with great love, and her salary is not high. No matter what, I can't take her money.

When I arrived at the hotel and saw a huge crowd of people, I was a little confused. "Luoning, you didn't say on WeChat that there would be so many people..."

Luo Ning was also confused, "If I say I didn't know so many people would come, would you believe me?"

"Believe it." I know Luo Ning. Since she said that the people coming are all her classmates from high school, she wouldn't have invited so many random people who she has no impression of.

"I only booked one private room, which is enough for 11 or 12 people, but looking at the number of people, even two more rooms won't be enough." Luo Ning frowned, "Look at the number of people, most of the class is here... Damn it! Could it be that they all came because I leaked the news that you would come?"

I grinned, "Am I that important?"

"Yes..." Luo Ning said in a low voice.

Luo Ning and I were still mumbling outside the door when someone pushed the door open and shouted at Luo Ning, "Squad Leader, why don't you come in now? It's so cold outside... Who's this person next to you... Damn it! Cheng Lin?!"

"Hi~ Long time no see~" I smiled and extended my hand to greet him. I looked normal, but I was actually trying hard to remember the name of this classmate. I have a good memory, but it is still difficult to match the names of high school classmates I haven't contacted for a long time...

"Well... come in quickly! Danniu has renovated a large private room with three tables, enough for us to sit!" the male classmate called out.

Luo Ning raised his eyebrows, "Well, I'm still here worrying about whether there are enough seats, but the rich man has already solved the problem."

I thought about it carefully again. I already remembered the name of the boy, but this great guy...

"Who is Daniu? I don't remember anyone with the last name Niu in our class?" I couldn't help but ask Luo Ning.

She burst out laughing, "'Daniu' is Liu Yufeng's nickname. When you were in school, you didn't know anything about it. It's normal that you didn't know."

I nodded, and understood. I still had a deep impression of this classmate. It was because he had a strong nouveau riche temperament. A big gold chain and a small watch were his main accessories in high school. After all, he was the one who treated the whole class to drinks and snacks every few days. He was grateful for the favor and was soft-hearted. It was impossible not to have a deep impression of him.

My classmates were obviously very excited that I could attend the class reunion, and they greeted me enthusiastically. My brain was working quickly, and I began to identify each face. There were two or three people who I couldn't remember because they had changed too much or something, so I could only ask Luo Ning quietly later.
