Back in college, the four of them got along quite well.

After graduation, Xu Deming returned to Cang County to develop his career due to his parents\' poor health, so he could take care of them.

Jiang Qiuping, being from the same county as Xu Deming and not wanting to separate from him, followed him back.

In a small county, there wasn\'t much prospect for development.

Apart from official departments or public institutions, other private enterprises didn\'t offer much opportunity.

As college graduates, they could only find some of the most ordinary jobs.

Eventually, they saved some money and opened a supermarket.

Fortunately, the supermarket business was doing well, which was much better than working outside.

Once the two returned to the county, they gradually lost contact with their classmates.

As for Liu Kaile and Song Li, it was heard that they stayed to work in Shashi, but how well they were doing was unknown.

However, judging from their dress and appearance, they seemed to be doing quite well.

"Old Xu, Old Jiang, I really didn\'t expect to run into you here after what, more than a decade?" said Liu Kaile.

"Indeed, it\'s been over a decade," Xu Deming couldn\'t remember exactly how long it had been, but it was certainly over a decade.

"The main reason we haven\'t seen each other for so many years is because of you two. You didn\'t come to last year\'s class reunion," Liu Kaile pointed out.

"It felt like there was no point, so we didn\'t go," Xu Deming replied.

Five years after graduation, they attended a class reunion.

Full of enthusiasm, they went, only to return disappointed.

Initially, they thought that a class reunion was just a place for classmates to catch up on old times and share current situations, to keep the friendship from growing stale.

But in reality, it wasn\'t like that at all.

The class reunion had turned into a bragging fest for some.

Those who were doing well were fawned over by many.

Those not doing as well were mocked and laughed at.

After that reunion, whenever there was another organized, Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping never attended again.

What was the point?

Was it to be ridiculed by others?

They weren\'t that low!

They had come to understand.

The feelings between classmates could change.

If they really wanted to get together, they could just contact a few of their closest friends and meet up with them.

Those closest friends wouldn\'t look down on anyone for not doing well.

"Heh, for some people, it is quite meaningless," Liu Kaile chuckled.

Liu Kaile and Song Li took a seat next to Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping.

Of course, Liu Kaile and Song Li knew why Xu Deming said what he did.

It was about being ridiculed for not living well when attending class reunions.

"Old Jiang, where are you headed?" Song Li asked.

"To Jiang City," Jiang Qiuping replied.

"Really? What a coincidence, we\'re also going to Jiang City," Song Li said.

"Old Xu, what are you doing in Jiang City?" Liu Kaile inquired.

"Visiting my son and daughter-in-law," Xu Deming responded.

"Visiting your son and daughter-in-law? Does that mean your son is already married?" Liu Kaile asked in surprise.

"Yes," Xu Deming nodded.

"According to when you two got married, your son must have just graduated from college not long ago, right?" Liu Kaile asked.

Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping had invited him and Song Li to their wedding.

However, they didn\'t attend; they just gave a red envelope.

Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping had a child, and they knew it.

Calculating the time, it seemed that Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping\'s son was about twenty-two or twenty-three years old, so he must have just graduated from college not long ago.

"Yes, my son just graduated last year," Xu Deming said.

"Graduated last year and now he\'s already married? That\'s really early; even earlier than you back in the day."

"You two went back to your hometown to develop and spent quite a few years before getting married."

Liu Kaile was genuinely surprised; Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping\'s son was already married.

Aren\'t young people nowadays all for marrying later?

Why was Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping\'s son in such a hurry?

"It\'s all the same, early or late. I think it\'s good that my son got married early. We don\'t have to worry about his marriage anymore," Xu Deming said.

"What\'s so good about that? Young people marrying early can easily be constrained. It\'s not conducive to personal career development," Liu Kaile disagreed with Xu Deming\'s view.

"That\'s not always true. There\'s wisdom in \'settling down before establishing oneself.\' It makes sense to marry first, then build a career," Xu Deming said.

"Haha, who cares about that now? Everyone wants to have a career established before getting married. If you marry without a career, your married life won\'t be happy."

"They say a poor couple has a hundred woes, and not even a penny can stumble a mighty hero. These ancient proverbs are not just empty talk."

"Just like my son; he has a girlfriend too, but I told him not to get married so early. I want him to focus on his studies and career first," Liu Kaile explained his own reasoning.

Liu Kaile had his own set of principles.

"Getting the career sorted first is also good," Xu Deming didn\'t argue with Liu Kaile.

These are all personal opinions; no point in fussing over them. Arguing is pointless.

"My son hasn\'t started working yet; he\'s studying for his master\'s degree. I told him, with the intense competition in society now, an undergraduate degree isn\'t worth much. It would be best to get a doctorate before starting work. That way, he could go much further in his career," Liu Kaile said proudly.

His son was his pride.

When talking about his son in front of others, he always beamed with pride.

"Pursuing a doctorate is great; the competitive edge is naturally incomparable to that of a bachelor\'s degree," Xu Deming acknowledged Liu Kaile\'s point.

"Right? You agree too, so why didn\'t you encourage your son to pursue a graduate degree?" Liu Kaile asked.

"The child has his own ideas. If he doesn\'t want to study further, then he won\'t. Working is also fine. I don\'t interfere with the child\'s business," Xu Deming said.

Have his own ideas?

Doesn\'t want to study?

No interference?

Perhaps it\'s because his academic results aren\'t good, and he couldn\'t get into a graduate program even if he wanted to?

"That\'s true," Liu Kaile chuckled, "By the way, I\'m guessing your son and daughter-in-law must have been university classmates, right?"

"Yes, how did you guess?" Xu Deming asked, somewhat surprised.

"Haha, getting married so early, they usually date in college. Otherwise, girlfriends found after starting work, where does it happen so quickly?"

Liu Kaile felt that since Xu Deming\'s son didn\'t pursue postgraduate studies and married so early, he probably was too focused on women.

"True, once you start working, finding a girlfriend isn\'t that easy. Even if you find one, you usually don\'t get married so quickly," Xu Deming nodded.

"Xu, not to criticize you, but you really shouldn\'t have let your son marry that early," Liu Kaile commented again.

"The child has his own thinking. If he wants to marry early, he can. I don\'t interfere, and I don\'t see anything wrong with it. Like I said earlier, once the son is married, we don\'t need to worry about the major events in his life," Xu Deming said.

"That\'s also true. Anyway, he\'s already married; whatever is said now is too late. Oh, and where\'s your daughter-in-law from?" Liu Kaile asked.

"From Jiang City," Xu Deming replied.

"Then your son is quite capable, scoring a wife from Jiang City," Liu Kaile commented.

Given Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping\'s looks when they were young, their son\'s looks definitely weren\'t bad.

Young girls prioritize looks, so it\'s no wonder Xu Deming and Jiang Qiuping\'s son was able to find a wife from Jiang City.
