Chapter 573 575 High School Reunion
Qin Hao and Du Wanrou stared in shock after hearing his words, "What did Li Wenjun say?"
Leng Xuan replied, "He had just received the news as well, the Blood Killing Organization is planning to make a move against you, and according to Li Wenjun's guess, they have been plotting this for a long time."
A flicker of worry crossed Qin Hao's eyes, "Have you found anything unusual? Or has anyone been followed?"
Leng Xuan shook his head, "So far, nothing unusual has been discovered."
Qin Hao said, "Inform Li Bao to enhance the security for the company's senior personnel."
Leng Xuan nodded, "Li Bao has already made arrangements. Mr. Qin, what I am most worried about now is you. The Blood Killing Organization usually only targets the person they aim to kill. They are very patient and will not act rashly without significant assurance. They will strike a fatal blow at your most relaxed moment."
On hearing this, Du Wanrou felt a trace of worry rising in her heart, but Qin Hao grasped her hand and said with a faint smile, "They haven't made their move yet, could it be that they haven't found the opportunity?"
Leng Xuan nodded, "That should be the case. I believe they are definitely hiding somewhere, waiting for the right moment."
"Let's all be more vigilant." Qin Hao didn't say more on the subject, as he didn't want Du Wanrou to worry too much.
...
Around 10:40 PM, Qin Hao's motorcade arrived at the entrance of Changle Hotel, adjacent to Changle Second Middle School.
There were many vehicles parked at the hotel entrance: cars, electric bikes, bicycles, and more. Also, quite a few people were standing around the entrance.
Among them was Mr. Liu, who had been Qin Hao and Du Wanrou's class teacher back in the day.
The people at the hotel entrance turned to look at Qin Hao's motorcade when it pulled up, instantly recognizing who had arrived from the grandeur of the scene.
Qin Hao and Du Wanrou stepped out of the car, hand in hand, and Mr. Liu, along with others, hurried over to greet them.
"Qin Hao, Wanrou, you've arrived," Mr. Liu said with a beaming smile.
Behind her were some administrative staff and the principal of Changle Second Middle School, all of whom had come especially to see Qin Hao.
Qin Hao and Du Wanrou greeted him with a neutral tone, "Mr. Liu."
Back in school, Qin Hao had no particular fondness for him, it was just average.
"Hello, Qin Hao, I am Mr. Liu, Director of Changle Second Middle, and this is our principal, Mr. Ma."
Qin Hao glanced at the two, finding them somewhat familiar but recalling almost no interaction, "Director Liu, Mr. Ma, hello to you both."
"Let's go inside to talk," Mr. Liu intervened.
Following Mr. Liu's lead, Qin Hao entered the private room reserved for Class 2's reunion within the hotel, while other classrooms hosted their respective class reunions.
The private room was buzzing with lively conversations and laughter. As Qin Hao and Du Wanrou entered, the room immediately fell silent.
Mr. Liu said, "Qin Hao, Wanrou, please take a seat. The principal and I will be in the next room."
Qin Hao and Du Wanrou found two empty seats and sat down, after which Mr. Liu and the others stepped out of the room.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Shuna was the first to speak, "Welcome Mr. Qin to our high school reunion. Let's all toast to Mr. Qin."
The rest snapped out of it and hastily raised their glasses, some filled with soft drinks, others with beer.
Qin Hao surveyed the crowd, spotting Yuan Zhengxiang, who used to be domineering, now holding a glass in his direction.
Qin Hao's current status was beyond comparison to theirs. The world's richest man, with assets surpassing a trillion, it was something none of them could even dare to dream of, yet Qin Hao had achieved it.
The Qin Hao who used to be timid and incompetent, struggling with his studies, had actually made it!!
A maelstrom of emotions stirred in many hearts, like a bottle of mixed flavors overturned, regretting not having fostered a good relationship with him back in high school; they could have been friends with the world's richest man now.
Just tossing them a bit of money would be more than enough for them to enjoy for a lifetime.
...
Qin Hao poured a drink for himself and Du Wanrou and said, "I'm not used to drinking alcohol, thank you everyone."
This sentence conveyed a lot of information.
Many people sighed in relief upon hearing his words; as long as Qin Hao didn't intend to retaliate against them, they were immensely grateful.
Given Qin Hao's current identity and status, if he really wanted to suppress them, it would be very easy.
But to Qin Hao, it didn't matter. In the future, everyone would take their own paths, and it would be best if they didn't disturb each other.
The food arrived quickly and as everyone ate, they chatted. Chen Shuna also spoke to Qin Hao, "Mr. Qin, your Star Domain Network and Xinghai Social Software are really good. My dad can get signal abroad and make free calls home."
Qin Hao asked curiously, "Isn't the Star Domain Network still not open abroad?"
Chen Shuna was taken aback, "Foreigners indeed can't use it, but we from Xuan Country can still use the Star Domain Network when we go abroad. You're the boss and you don't know this?"
Qin Hao replied, "Someone else manages the company; I'm not aware of the specifics, but as you said, it does sound pretty good."
Zhao Man suddenly spoke up, "Mr. Qin, is it true about the red packet grabbing on Xinghai Social? Those red packets aren't just going to your company's own people, are they?"
Qin Hao answered, "No, it's a fair lottery. The information about the winners is published on the official website."
Zhao Man chuckled and said, "Then could you increase my chances of winning? I'd like to become a millionaire too."
Qin Hao replied, "I think you'd be better off stepping in some dog shit to improve your luck."
"How rude, we're classmates after all," Zhao Man said with a tone that carried a hint of coquettish protest.
She was indeed quite attractive, and with careful embellishment she was charming, certainly above average in looks, but Qin Hao felt nothing.
At that moment, Liu Xiu and Mr. Ma walked in, had a drink with the people inside, offered a few words of encouragement, and then left.
After finishing the meal, Qin Hao and Du Wanrou walked out together, and the atmosphere inside the private room became livelier.
With Qin Hao there, they always felt a sense of inhibition and pressure, unable to fully relax while talking and behaving.
Just as Qin Hao and Du Wanrou came out, someone else emerged from a nearby private room: it was Xia Qing.
The three exchanged looks, and Qin Hao smiled and said, "Xiaoqing, you're here too?"
Xia Qing nodded slightly. She glanced at Du Wanrou, and Du Wanrou was also looking at her, creating a somewhat tense atmosphere.
Qin Hao let out a dry laugh and said, "Let's go downstairs and talk there."
The three of them stepped outside the hotel, and both Du Wanrou and Xia Qing were silent, their thoughts inscrutable.
A minute later, Du Wanrou suddenly said, "Qin Hao, I want to speak with Xia Qing alone for a moment; you wait over there for us."
Qin Hao looked at her quizzically and then walked to the edge of the road while Du Wanrou and Xia Qing moved aside and began to talk only when they were far enough away.
Five or six minutes later, the two returned with smiles on their faces, appearing much more harmonious than before.
Qin Hao asked them, "What were you talking about?"
Du Wanrou replied, "Nothing much, just chatting for a while."
Knowing that they wouldn't tell, Qin Hao spoke up, "Let's head back. Xiaoqing, let me take you to meet my parents."
