Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Seeing that Lin Guochang did not respond, Ji Yuan did not care. He just smiled tolerantly and slowly sat down.

"He is currently working in the Alliance. However, as you know, the incident involving old Biden involved too many people. He was also implicated and demoted."

Ruan Tianli took the opportunity to explain and tried to help Lin Guochang resolve his doubts.

After saying this, he stood up suddenly and said loudly to break the slightly awkward atmosphere:

"Oh, Guochang is too tired these days. Look at him, he looks like he hasn't woken up yet. Come, Jiyuan, let me drink with you."

After that, without saying anything, he picked up a whole bottle of wine, put the bottle mouth to his mouth, and drank it down with a "bang bang bang". The wine splashed everywhere, causing the surrounding classmates to cheer: "What a good alcohol tolerance."

"Oh, Lin Guochang, Ruan Tianli, you two are really legends among our classmates!"

An old classmate in a suit and tie with a famous watch on his wrist stood up first, with a flattering smile on his face. He took a few steps in front of the two of them, bowed slightly, and the red wine glass in his hand swayed gently with his movements, and the wine inside shimmered like a ruby.

"Nowadays, everyone in China knows that you are one of the Four Heavenly Kings! Your reputation is so well-known that when I tell others that we are classmates, their jaws drop in amazement. They envy me for having such an amazing classmate."

As he spoke, he raised his glass high and tilted it slightly towards the two of them, as if he was performing the most respectful toast.

"I toast to you two with this glass of wine. May your future paths become broader and your achievements become more brilliant."

Several female classmates nearby couldn't hold back and came over swaying their bodies.

They were dressed in gorgeous evening gowns, with delicate makeup, and the scent of their perfumes mixed together to form a rich yet somewhat sweet scent.

"King Lin, King Ruan, you may not know that our school still has the picture of you winning the competition. You are role models for our juniors! Every time I go back to my alma mater, I can hear the teachers talking about your great achievements."

One of the female students with big curly hair had charming eyes and gently placed her white fingers on Lin Guochang's arm, and said in a tender voice,

"I hope you two can help us old classmates more in the future, so that we can also benefit from it."

"That's it!"

Another female classmate with neat short hair quickly agreed, holding an Hermès bag in her hand and with an anxious look on her face.

"I heard about your crushing performance in the King of Kings Tournament, and everyone is talking about it. Everyone admires you. We, your classmates, are proud of you from the bottom of our hearts."

As she spoke, she took out her cell phone from her bag.

"Come on, two kings, let's take a photo together. I have to show off to my family and friends when I go back that I was in the same class with such a legendary figure."

At this time, an old classmate who was wearing glasses and looked a little gentle and refined squeezed in from outside the crowd. He had the latest model of mobile phone in his hand and opened a news page, which showed the report on Lin Guochang and Ruan Tianli.

"Look, the news headlines are dominated by the two of you again. Your influence is evident!"

He pushed up his glasses, his eyes full of admiration.

"I study technology every day, hoping that one day I can shine in my own field like you two. This glass of wine is to toast your excellence and extraordinaryness."

Faced with the flood of compliments from the crowd, Lin Guochang and Ruan Tianli looked at each other, a hint of helplessness flashed in their eyes, and they had no choice but to respond one by one.

After three rounds of drinks, Lin Guochang's eyes slowly swept over the people present, his brows subconsciously wrinkled slightly, and a hint of difficulty emerged on his face.

The scene of the class reunion that he had sketched out deep in his heart should have been that of old friends meeting again after a long period of time, with everyone sitting together and reminiscing about the past warmly.

In that poetic scene, everyone can speak freely and recall the innocence and beauty of their youth, allowing those interesting, embarrassing and touching things that have been buried by time to reappear before their eyes frame by frame like a movie.

But the reality was like a bucket of cold water, which completely dampened his beautiful vision.

At the gathering at this moment, the air is filled with a different atmosphere, mixed with the overt or covert spirit of comparison, the helplessness and vicissitudes brought by reality, and many difficult to describe complex emotions.

All of this was like a tangled mess, causing Lin Guochang to feel his temples throbbing and a severe headache.

He sighed deeply, knowing in his heart that time was rolling forward and everyone was no longer the young and ignorant teenager they once were. These changes might be the price of growing up and were inevitable.

"This trip to the Bermuda Triangle..."

While he was thinking secretly, Lin Guochang suddenly caught a faint sound. His ears moved slightly, his heart moved, and he subconsciously tilted his head slightly, and his sharp eyes looked like a searchlight at the next table.

I saw a man wearing glasses and with a slightly thin face, who was talking eloquently and incessantly. His hands kept gesturing in the air, as if he was describing a magnificent scene.

But most of the people around me had wandering eyes, and just responded with a few simple words out of politeness, and occasionally nodded, which was very perfunctory.

"Hey, Tenri."

Lin Guochang gently nudged Ruan Tianli beside him with his elbow, pointed his finger in the direction of that person, and asked in confusion,

"Who is that person? He looks familiar to me, but I just can't remember where he is."

Ruan Tianli had already drunk a lot of wine at this time. His fair face was faintly flushed and his eyes were a little blurred.

He looked back in the direction of Lin Guochang's finger with bleary eyes, burped, and said with a tangled tongue:

"You don't even remember him? He was our old monitor, Quan Yi! He was a well-known figure in the class back then. He was always at the forefront in organizing activities and managing the class."

"Okay, go ahead and drink."

Seeing Ruan Tianli's look, Lin Guochang shook his head helplessly and sighed secretly.

As soon as he stood up, his tall and straight figure was like a magnet, instantly attracting many people's attention.

Lin Guochang seemed unaware of this. He walked with steady steps towards the neighboring table where Quanyi was sitting.

"Excuse me, old squad leader."

Lin Guochang walked up to Quanyi, bowed slightly, and spoke politely with a gentle smile on his face.

"Oh, King Lin... Ahem, Guochang!"

Quanyi was in high spirits when he was interrupted out of nowhere. He was stunned at first, but when he saw that the person was Lin Guochang, a look of flattery instantly appeared on his face.

He stood up hurriedly, rubbing his hands on the corners of his clothes in a panic, as if this would make him look more decent.

Lin Guochang waved his hand gently with a humble smile on his face, trying to dispel the slightly awkward atmosphere of flattery.

"There's really no need for everyone to be like this. We're all old classmates, so it's good to just catch up."

As he spoke, he slightly turned his head and looked towards Quan Yi, his eyes full of curiosity and inquiry.

"I just overheard you mention something, the Bermuda Triangle? This piqued my curiosity."

"That's right, that's right."

Quan Yi nodded quickly, a hint of pride on his face, pushed up his glasses, and started to introduce enthusiastically.

“I am a researcher now, but compared with your wife, Dr. An, my achievements are really insignificant.

I am currently doing research under the tutelage of Professor Shang Hefeng. During this period, our team has received an extremely challenging task, which is to go deep into the Bermuda Triangle and collect the mysterious and complex magnetic field data there.

As you know, the magnetic field there is disordered, and all kinds of strange phenomena occur frequently. Researching it may help to solve many unsolved mysteries in the scientific community."

"That's it..."

Lin Guochang nodded thoughtfully, and his mind suddenly flashed back to when Lin Yi had mentioned to him before that he wanted to explore the Bermuda Triangle.

He knew that the sea was full of dangers and unpredictable. If Lin Yi could travel with a professional research team, with professional knowledge and equipment to protect him, perhaps he would be safer.

Thinking of this, Lin Guochang looked up at Quan Yi with a look of expectation in his eyes, and asked tentatively:

"You guys, can we still fit people in there?"
