Ge Chen looked at this cell phone and pondered deeply about it. Louis was sitting beside him and drinking a green cocktail. He glanced at his friend and said, "If you are worried then check the surveillance cameras."
Ge Chen signaled a bartender and ordered him, "Tell the security manager to come here."
The bartender bowed and went inside. He called the security manager and he quickly came over. He rubbed his hands out of nervousness and said, "Good evening, Master Ge. What can I do for you?"
Ge Chen coldly and calmly said, "Isn't there a reunion party going on the fifteenth floor? I want to see the surveillance footage." His tone was full of authority.
"Yes! Yes! I'll prepare a private room for you right way so that you can watch the footage by yourself." The security manager said. He managed everything quickly and led Ge Chen and Louis into a private room.
Ge Chen quickly found Xue Lin on the big screen. She was with at least fifteen men and twelve women. They were all young and cheerful. He observed her pale expression which he never saw before. He couldn't understand why she was in that condition.
Louis also found Xue Lin but he took some time. He asked, "Is that really your wife? I can't even recognize her. She didn't even wear her glasses. I didn't think she was the type to do makeover. What a transformation!"
Ge Chen said, "She didn't. I did the makeover."
Louis' jaw dropped on the floor and he looked at his friend blankly. He was thinking if his friend became a beautician after marrying.
Meanwhile, Xue Lin felt better after they continuously asked about her profession and the places she visited in Europe. She told them stories while eating. Others talked about their dream professions as well. Some of them secretly gossiped about Xue Lin and her two friends. The three suddenly disappeared including, Xue Lin and it was very suspicious. However, they didn't bother her seeing her getting paled.
After getting drunk, they began to recollect their childhood memories.
Some guy said, "Xiao Lin, do you remember the time we were in the library for self-study? It was so hot that day and we had an air conditioner in the library. Xiao Lin fell asleep and when the teacher came, he pulled her ear and woke her up. And Xiao Lin got angry and kicked that teacher right in the middle of the groin while sleeping. That was just…
"KO!" Another boy finished the sentence.
Ahahaha! Everyone burst into laughter.
"Xiao Lin is scary when she wakes up."
"I don't look scary when I wake up. I get angry at anyone who takes away my beauty sleep." Xue Lin calmly defended herself. Her cheeks were getting red. No one knew whether it's because she was drunk or embarrassed.
"Xiao Lin always slept sitting on the first bench and teachers never noticed. She is so lucky."
"Did she sleep while opening her eyes?"
"No, even though she slept closing her eyes, the teachers didn't notice. It's maybe because she was a good student."
Another guy shook his head. "Not at all. I sat beside her. She indeed slept, but whenever teachers told us to note something, she would wake up and noted everything without missing a word. Can you believe it?!"
"Is that even possible?!"
"Only she knows."
"That's indeed possible." Xue Lin answered.
"I believe it's Xiao Lin's ghostly power."
"Xiao Lin, once you said that you could see ghosts." A girl said.
"I won't deny it." Xue Lin replied.
"Xiao Lin is a ghostbuster."
Pfft!
"And I remember the time when we skipped classes, the next day we would be punished in front of all the students in the school. We became very popular."
"Ah, and the next week, we still skipped classes."
"Yeah… and teachers felt that we were hopeless."
"But look at us now. We still completed graduation."
"This is an achievement, guys. Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Do you guys remember our Math teacher? Damn that guy was good at drawing eggs and fork."
"You were the worst at mathematics. Of course, he would give you an egg-like Zeros."
"He was used to writing love letters too."
"That's when you skip lines and write the correct answer by copying from someone else."
"But he was a good teacher."
"He was… his wife died a few days ago. I went to visit him at the funeral."
"Ah, that was a shock."
Someone tried to make the mood lighter. "Oh, do you remember when we were in fourth grade, we secretly went to the school at night to look for the ghost but pissed ourselves when we saw the skeleton in the biology laboratory?"
"Oh, man! That was the worst day of my life!"
"I've never been scared like that before."
"Come to think of it, that was Xiao Lin's idea."
"Xiao Lin, you got us good. You knew about the skeleton, didn't you?"
Xue Lin shrugged. "Duh! If you guys didn't bully a sweet girl at that time, I wouldn't have done it."
"You were scary since you were born."
"Maybe that's why my relatives are also scared of me." Xue Lin took their words as a compliment.
There was a boy who was looking at Xue Lin for a while. He sat across Xue Lin and observed her.
