I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 229 Class Monitor, you will always be our class monitor.

The waiter knocked on the door, came in, bowed respectfully to Yu Lingxue, and whispered:

"Miss Yu, everything is ready. Shall we serve the food now?"

"Ah."

Yu Lingxue responded softly, her indifferent demeanor instantly disrupting the quiet atmosphere, with a chorus of shouts from the group of boys:

"Ouch!"

"She's truly a wealthy heiress, so elegant..."

The teasing from everyone made Yu Lingxue feel a little embarrassed. She lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushing.

Teacher Wang smiled, waved his hand, and said:

"Alright, alright, stop making a fuss. Look at Yu Lingxue, she didn't show any signs of being a rich kid when she was in school. She was very easy to get along with and approachable. You all need to learn from that attitude so you can achieve great things in the future, understand?"

"We understand!" the students answered in unison, knowing that Teacher Wang was trying to help Yu Lingxue out of a difficult situation.

But Yu Lingxue was even more embarrassed at this moment...

How could I be difficult to get along with? Compared to Zhou Heng, I'm nothing but a nobody.

Knowing that someone with such a powerful background exists, how could I dare to be arrogant? I wish I could be so low-key that I could become invisible...

Just then, a boy looked at Zhou Heng and called out, "Hey Zhou! Want to have a drink with your buddy?"

"Yeah, Zhou, we've all graduated, how about we all get together for a drink?"

"This might be the last time we all get together like this. The next time we get this many people together, it might be for your wedding with the class monitor!"

"Ha ha ha ha..."

The boys chatted animatedly, each chiming in with their own comments, creating a lively atmosphere. They all had a good relationship with Zhou Heng.

However, after Zhou Heng started dating, he focused on Yin Mengran and almost never went out with them anymore, but this did not affect the friendship between them.

"Ahaha... well..."

Zhou Heng smiled as well, then subconsciously glanced at Yin Mengran beside him, as if seeking her approval.

This action was noticed by the girls, who immediately covered their mouths and chuckled. It wasn't mockery, but rather a sign of their support for the couple.

Yin Mengran certainly couldn't stop Zhou Heng from drinking, but she still looked at Teacher Wang, since Teacher Wang was also there, and it should be her who made the decisions at this table.

Teacher Wang smiled helplessly and said:

"You don't need to worry about me, you've all graduated! Have fun, drink as you please, it's okay, just have fun. I'll just say a few things: those who are strictly forbidden from drinking at home, those who are taking medication, and those who are allergic should not drink. Also, drink in moderation, don't urge others to drink. Let's have a happy gathering and let's end it happily, okay?"

"it is good!"

"Would you like some, teacher?"

"Yes, teacher, can you drink? Why don't you have some with the students?"

"Well, okay, I'll have a little bit then." Teacher Wang nodded, agreeing to the students' request.

Yu Lingxue called over a waiter, brought him to her side, and whispered, "Bring over the wine my father stored, and a few more cases of beer."

"Ok."

Soon, the dishes began to be served one after another, and several bottles of expensive wine were also brought to the table.

Zhou Heng was also poured a drink. Then, he thought back to when he drank with Yin Mengran before, and how she acted that way.

He moved closer to Yin Mengran and whispered:

"Honey, drink less, okay..."

"I won't drink anymore, you can drink. Even if you drink too much, I can still take you home."

Yin Mengran shook her head. She had originally planned to drink, but she preferred to drink alone with Zhou Heng, given the large number of people present.

It would be bad if I drank a little and lost control...

"what?"

Zhou Heng was taken aback when he heard that Yin Mengran didn't drink.

He was still thinking about their appointment tonight...

Drinking a little alcohol can give you courage, and with Yin Mengran's state after drinking, wouldn't it be a natural progression?

But if Yin Mengran doesn't drink it now, then... will things still go smoothly?

"Um... you should still have a drink. It's alright, it's a class reunion after all, and you're still the class monitor..."

Zhou Heng never expected that he would say such a thing, that he would actually try to persuade Yin Mengran to drink with a certain ulterior motive...

"Uh...you're right, okay then, I'll have a little too."

Yin Mengran poured herself some of the wine that Zhou Heng had just poured, and also poured some for Teacher Wang who was standing next to her.

Teacher Wang nudged Yin Mengran with her elbow and whispered, "As the class monitor, say a few words."

"Ah, um, okay."

Yin Mengran picked up her wine glass and slowly stood up.

At that moment, Zhou Heng coughed loudly, attracting everyone's attention and immediately quieting the scene down so that everyone looked at Yin Mengran.

Yin Mengran took a deep breath, paused for a few seconds, and slowly spoke:

"Dear classmates, thank you all for coming. We have finally graduated. I would like to raise a glass to each and every one of you, and to Teacher Wang. Thank you for accompanying me through this precious time of my youth, and thank you for the deep impression you have left on my life. As the class monitor, I also want to thank you for your support..."

"No matter where we are in the future, no matter what we experience, this friendship will remain unchanged. I wish each of us can realize our dreams. Thank you everyone..."

"Clap--"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Zhi took the lead in clapping, followed by Yu Lingxue and Zhou Heng, and then every student in the class...

Many female students shed tears, wiping them with tissues, clearly reluctant to part.

"Come on, let's toast the class monitor and the teacher."

"Class monitor, you'll always be our class monitor..."

"Yeah..."

One by one, the students stood up, picked up their glasses, and prepared to drink this glass of wine together.

Teacher Wang looked at Yin Mengran with a face full of satisfaction and eyes brimming with pride.

Then, she picked up her cup, stood up, and joined her classmates.

At this moment, a girl asked with a smile:

"By the way, class monitor, you just mentioned realizing your dream. What is your dream?"

"Ah...my..."

Yin Mengran was slightly taken aback, then subconsciously glanced at Zhou Heng standing to the side...

"oh!!"

This caused the entire audience to erupt in cheers once again, with everyone shouting and starting to jeering enthusiastically.

Zhou Heng pursed his lips, lowered his head, and his ears subtly turned red. He raised his glass and said loudly:

"Come on! Cheers!"

The students raised their glasses together and took a sip.

Yu Lingxue was a beat slow, but she still drank it.

Her other hand was tightly gripping her phone.

There was a small packet of powder hidden inside the phone case...
