The Urban Medical Martial Immortal-Chapter 1441 - 1434: Overbearing Aggression

Shi Lan was no longer the simple girl she used to be at school.

From the words and expressions of the classmates present, she could discern quite a bit.

It had been more than two years since leaving school, and she had encountered a wide variety of people.

These classmates, who had become almost like strangers, were behaving this way towards her. Shi Lan was extremely composed.

She responded one by one to the classmates present, including the most sarcastic Gao Xiaoxiao.

Afterward, Shi Lan slightly bowed toward the man who looked to be in his fifties sitting among the group of classmates, and respectfully said, "Mr. Chen, I’m Shi Lan!"

"Haha... Shi Lan, right, I remember, I remember! Not only was she the most beautiful in our department, her grades also ranked in the top three!"

The man, Mr. Chen, laughed loudly and nodded, saying, "We are all classmates, no need to be so polite. Everyone hurry up and sit down! Today, thanks to Zhang Gai’s connections, the teacher also gets to come to this banquet..."

Mao Zitong hurriedly pulled Shi Lan to sit beside him, and Lin Tian was not shy either, sitting right next to Shi Lan.

From the conversations, Lin Tian learned that this man was Shi Lan and others’ university mentor, named Chen Busong, a properly credentialed advanced professor!

At this point, many people noticed Lin Tian, and many had curious expressions.

"Shi Lan, who is he? Aren’t you going to introduce him to everyone?"

A female classmate pointed at Lin Tian and asked Shi Lan curiously.

The group of classmates present, especially the girls, all suddenly showed a keen interest in gossip on their faces.

However.

Before Shi Lan could speak, Mao Zitong excitedly laughed and said, "Hehe, this is Laanlaan’s little boyfriend! Teehee, do you think he’s handsome?"

Boyfriend?

The single male classmates at the table all widened their eyes, looking at Lin Tian with somewhat unfriendly gazes.

As they looked at Lin Tian, younger, handsome, bright—he was just like an assassin of women compared to them!

And as for the female classmates, they once again felt envious and jealous, some looking not quite pleased.

Especially those who already had boyfriends, when comparing with Lin Tian, they couldn’t help but feel the young man had an extremely fatal allure.

Some women looked at Lin Tian with unusual expressions in their eyes.

"Oh, no wonder our Shi Lan doesn’t want to accept Zhang Gai’s pursuit; turns out there’s such superior quality fresh meat here!"

After sizing up Lin Tian for a while, a female classmate spoke mockingly.

Shi Lan glanced at Lin Tian, bit her lip, and chose to remain silent.

She really didn’t know how to explain it.

So she decided to just treat Lin Tian as her boyfriend, to save herself from the entanglement and trouble of these boys.

"Humph, superior quality fresh meat? In my eyes, it’s just roadside weeds!"

At this moment, Gao Xiaoxiao sneered; she angrily stared at Lin Tian and then looked at the clothes on Lin Tian and Shi Lan, gritting her teeth and saying, "You wouldn’t guess what happened at the clothing store before, would you? If you knew, you wouldn’t be thinking like this!"

Fan Juun, sitting beside Gao Xiaoxiao, still had a swollen cheek. His gaze toward Lin Tian was filled with rising anger.

"Ah... What happened?"

Everyone looked at Gao Xiaoxiao with surprise.

"What happened? Well, actually, it was nothing much. Just met at Yipin Pavilion in Wangfujing with classmate Shi Lan. But at that time, she wanted to buy a high-end Prada outfit worth several thousand yuan! Almost made everyone laugh to death, I even thought of lending her hundreds of thousands, but she couldn’t afford it, so she didn’t dare to accept!"

Gao Xiaoxiao’s voice carried a mocking tone as she coldly laughed, "But now, she’s indeed wearing that outfit, and the two of them look like they’re trying to suggest a couple’s attire!"

Everyone was once again puzzled.

"Gao Xiaoxiao, stop causing trouble, will you?"

Back in university, Gao Xiaoxiao was often compared to Shi Lan by many boys. Gao Xiaoxiao had always harbored animosity toward Shi Lan, and as Shi Lan’s best friend, Mao Zitong couldn’t stand it.

"Now that Shi Lan is wearing it, it means she managed to buy the outfit, so why keep talking about this?"

Mao Zitong glared at Gao Xiaoxiao with her beautiful eyes, refusing to back down, standing up for Shi Lan.

Others were once again puzzled about why Gao Xiaoxiao was saying these things.

"Didn’t you notice? Her little boyfriend here, the tag on his clothes hasn’t even been removed yet! It’s almost certainly rented clothes, how embarrassing!"

Gao Xiaoxiao pointed at Lin Tian’s collar and coldly laughed, "If you can’t afford it, then you can’t afford it, no one’s saying anything. But to keep up appearances, using money to rent clothes is a first for me!"

Rented?

Everyone froze for a moment, their gaze immediately focused on Lin Tian, and sure enough, they saw a tag sticking out from Lin Tian’s collar.

If the tag wasn’t being removed, it was almost certainly rented!

Only then did the people present notice Shi Lan’s handbag, which was just an ordinary item, costing a few hundred yuan.

She also wasn’t wearing any necklaces or earrings.

Lin Tian was even simpler, just clothes, nothing else!

Real young masters usually carried an expensive watch with them!

Not to mention a watch costing millions; even one worth tens of thousands was considered the absolute basic!

Lin Tian before their eyes had nothing!

If the boyfriend was like this, then even less could be said about Shi Lan!

Everyone knew about Shi Lan’s average family background, so how could she afford such expensive clothes?

"Shi Lan, were your clothes really rented? But renting them is nice too, at least you look splendid! Plus, being able to rent them means you’re doing quite well!"

A female classmate sarcastically sneered, her words full of innuendo.

The other female classmates, looking at Shi Lan, suddenly showed a moment of satisfaction.

"Renting clothes?"

Shi Lan furrowed her pretty brows, glanced at Lin Tian’s collar, and then shook her head, "We didn’t rent them; we bought them!"

Although Shi Lan explained this way, how many people believed it?

Lin Tian touched his collar, indeed hadn’t removed the tag, but he didn’t care, and casually said, "I forgot to take it off!"

"Ha! Rented is rented, a poor guy shouldn’t pretend! I really don’t know what Shi Lan sees in you!"

Gao Xiaoxiao’s face was somber as she sneered at Lin Tian, "Before, you beat up my boyfriend, and today, unless you give an explanation, don’t think about leaving here!"

"Kid, if you don’t apologize later, I’ll make a call and break your leg! Poor guy, stepping in here is the greatest insult to us!"

Fan Juun angrily pointed at Lin Tian, yelling.

"Don’t push it too far! Renting, so what? Wasn’t it for Zhang Gai’s sake, and because our mentor came today, so we dressed formally, what’s wrong with that!"

Shi Lan’s best friend, Mao Zitong, looked at Gao Xiaoxiao’s aggressive stance and felt even more indignant, once again confronting Gao Xiaoxiao with a loud exclamation.

"Alright, alright... We’re all classmates, what’s the point of arguing here?"

Seeing the argument escalating, Chen Busong quickly spoke up, stopping the quarrel, and said, "Today is the opening banquet of Zhang Gai’s winery, originally a joyful occasion, but with everyone arguing like this, it’s disgraceful for all, and not just an individual’s problem; it drags down the collective face of our teachers and students!"

With Chen Busong’s words, everyone at the table suddenly fell silent, even Gao Xiaoxiao and Fan Juun, who were extremely resentful towards Lin Tian, stopped talking.
