Chapter: 1018
Han Meiying laughed and said: "I'm not really clear about the details. I only know that our law firm seems to have had long-term cooperation with Huiliang Hall's parent company, and they delegate all their overseas legal affairs to us."
Xiao Changkun was stunned!
The parent company of Huiliang Hall must be none other than the renowned Song family in Jinling, and he never thought that Han Meiying's law firm would have a cooperation relationship with them!
He had originally planned to ask his son-in-law, Ye Chen, to help arrange a venue at Huiliang Hall, and also make himself look good.
But little did he know that Han Meiying's son had directly resolved this matter, which was truly extraordinary.
So Xiao Changkun quickly got into an inviting pose and said, "Come on, Meiying, let's get in the car."
Han Meiying thanked him and elegantly sat in the passenger seat of Xiao Changkun's BMW 5 series.
As Xiao Changkun drove towards Zhongshan University, he couldn't help but feel nostalgic: "You haven't come back to Jinling for twenty-something years, have you?"
Han Meiying replied, "I've gone back to my country and visited Suzhou, but I never came back to Jinling."
Xiao Changkun asked urgently: "Is it because of what happened back then that you're not willing to come back to Jinling?"
Han Meiying said sincerely: "It's a mix of both, one part is because of what happened before, which makes me not too keen on coming back and facing memories. Another part is that I don't have many relatives or old friends in Jinling, so I never came back."
Xiao Changkun nodded slightly, thinking back to the last alumni gathering when many of his classmates had joked about their past relationships with Han Meiying and Ma Lán. Therefore, he seriously told Han Meiying: "Meiying, today's gathering might have those old classmates making jokes about our past again. When that time comes, please don't take it too hard - these people are all a bit eccentric!"
Han Meiying smiled and said: "As long as they're not distorting the facts, a few jokes won't hurt. If I were afraid of their jokes, how could I even organize this reunion? Everyone's been apart for 20 years or more - our old school days far outweigh everything else. What's a little joking going to achieve?"
...
They arrived at Zhongshan University and Xiao Changkun parked his car at the school entrance parking lot, walking alongside Han Meiying into the campus.
Inside the school, classes were in session, so the campus was very quiet indeed.
The two of them walked along the concrete path on campus, Xiao Changkun introducing Han Meiying to the surroundings, saying: "Actually, after all these years, our school has been rebuilt and renovated several times. It's completely unrecognizable from what it used to be like back then - to be honest, our old school was really rundown."
"Ah yes!" Han Meiying couldn't help but sigh: "I remember our school back then only had one concrete path, which was the main road leading into the campus from the school gate. The other paths were all made of ash, and sometimes we would ask local students to bring some burnt coal balls from home to use as a makeshift road. It was really messy when it rained, but looking back now, it's still kind of nostalgic."
"Yeah yeah yeah!" Xiao Changkun laughed: "Back then I used to carry burnt bee nest coal balls from home to school all the time. Do you remember that year we had sports day and our track was so worn out that the school organized us to find materials to fix it?"
Han Meiying smiled: "I do remember, of course! You even spent your own money to bring many male students to help collect burnt bee nest coal balls from all over the city."
As Han Meiying spoke, a hint of light flashed in her eyes as she gazed at Xiao Changkun, filled with sentiment: "I remember that time you and your friends went around collecting so many burnt bee nest coal balls, eventually paving half the track. That's why teachers and the school looked at you with such favor, even making you our student union president."
"Yes," Xiao Changkun rubbed his hands awkwardly: "Those days were all about volunteering spirit, weren't they?"
Han Meiying nodded slightly, sighing wistfully: "Ah, those days when you were so full of vigor and charm, making countless little girls worship you. I remember how our school loved the boys who liked you back then, lining up like a row of dominoes."
Xiao Changkun's face turned bright red as he chuckled: "But I'd say there were even more guys who liked me than girls!"
Han Meiying smiled calmly: "It's all just old history now. The more people who liked you didn't matter in the end; many only treated you like a fleeting dream, liking you when they're with you and forgetting about it the moment they leave." JrNovels.com
