As a result, I still made a fool of myself in front of Lu Ming.
I stared at the person in front of me for a long time, confirming that it was indeed Lu Ming I had seen before. I estimated that my face looked worse than Mu Miaomiao's.
Soon, Mu Miaomiao came over to support me. Upon seeing that I was still gripping Lu Ming's suit collar, she quickly slapped my hand away and smiled brightly at Lu Ming, saying, "Lu Ge, I didn't expect to see you here. What a coincidence."
"Yeah, Wang Nan is here too."
"Wang Nan didn't even tell me he was here. Is he with Miss Bao? I'm going to catch him in the act later. Lu Ge, don't help Wang Nan keep it a secret."
Lu Ming smirked slightly and replied, "Sure, I'll keep it confidential for you."
Their back-and-forth conversation sounded like two friends chatting, while I hung my heavy head, dazedly looking at the mess on Lu Ming's outfit and got lost in thought.
"Zhuang Jun, Zhuang Jun."
"Ah?" I looked up at Mu Miaomiao again. In the dim light, I saw her give me a wink. I had no choice but to muster the courage to stammer out, "I... need to use the restroom..."
"Oh, you need to use the restroom? That's fine. Let's head back then. Lu Ge, we're leaving now. Enjoy yourself; we'll see you later. Bye-bye." Mu Miaomiao quickly supported my shoulders and walked backward. As I turned around, I caught one last glimpse of Lu Ming leisurely taking off his coat.
Thinking about it made me anxious. I couldn't help but grip Mu Miaomiao's arm and worryfully said, "Miao Miao, do you think something went wrong?"
"No, no, don't worry. With me and Wang Nan around, you'll be fine."
I frowned and said, "No, Miao Miao, I really won't go. I'll find my own job, so don't worry about me."
"That's not acceptable. If you go to Lu Ge, I'll feel at ease. It's just an accident today; Lu Ge won't take it to heart, so don't worry."
I truly didn't know if Lu Ming would or not, but I was already concerned. Just the thought of having vomited on my future boss made me feel like it was only a matter of time before I faced repercussions.
Aside from this incident, the class reunion organized by Fu Cen was flawless. After the event, everyone was excitedly talking about going for more drinks. Mu Miaomiao went over to Wang Nan and asked me what I thought. I didn't even have the courage to follow Mu Miaomiao to greet Wang Nan; I just said I was going to catch up with old classmates. Mu Miaomiao didn't insist and told me to be careful before heading into Wang Nan's private room.
With my stomach emptied, I felt much clearer-headed. A group of us found a barbecue stall and gathered together, lively and cheerful. It had been three years since I had experienced such days.
I missed it dearly.
Thinking back to the past during college, where Mu Miaomiao became my best friend and I met Wang Xu through club activities. My parents loved me, I had three or four friends around me, a partner by my side, and dreams in my heart. I was content with my fulfilling life.
The only wish I had was for a happy marriage and children. I thought this was just a small expectation of mine as a woman, but ultimately, due to fate, it shattered into pieces.
I didn't know who started it, but everyone began singing "You Are My Classmate." The familiar melody mixed with the coolness of the grilled skewers brought a hoarse voice filled with nostalgia and longing.
Time quietly passed by; what did it leave behind? Each of us lived different lives yet gathered together through memories as if nothing had changed.
Putting down the empty bamboo stick in my hand, I took out my phone and dialed Wang Xu's number. After ringing two or three times, he picked up with a voice that I would remember for a lifetime.
"Wife."
"Honey, I want to go home."
