Chapter 1068: Chapter 159: Another Acquaintance? Chapter 1068: Chapter 159: Another Acquaintance? Jiang Xu got off the RV and took out a small electric bike from the back, setting off immediately.

The RV was also equipped with a lot of tools, including a few dozen small drones.

They could be used for surveillance, photography, and the like.

Of course, if necessary, the batteries on these drones could instantly generate high temperatures internally and then explode.

Just now, in the university class group chat, more than a dozen classmates responded, all being in Jiang City.

They said they had time and could all gather tonight.

The city has developed very well now.

Many people are probably working here, more or less, because of Jiang Xu.

Perhaps it’s due to the age factor.

Jiang Xu has begun to reminisce about people and things from the past.

Hearing that old classmates were getting together for dinner tonight, he couldn’t resist coming over to take a look.

Because, how should I put it…

To put it bluntly, it’s not likely to see these old classmates many times in a lifetime.

The place for the dinner was not too luxurious; it was a restaurant that had been open for decades.

When Jiang Xu arrived at the place, he suddenly froze.

Because the location of this restaurant was none other than the restaurant owned by his parents when he was still in high school.

It was later bought by Jiang Xu.

And then, at the peak of house prices, it was sold off.

After so many years of development, the original address had undergone multiple changes.

So at first, when Jiang Xu found out, he didn’t think of this place.

Now, upon reaching the destination,
Seeing this restaurant that has only changed its address and name, while the exterior building has remained the same, Jiang Xu was stunned for a long time.

Involuntarily, many scenes from that time came to mind.

He remembered that after school, he would come over to help.

Or after finishing homework, he would bring some food from home for his parents.

Despite it being tough work, it was also filled with happiness.

Then he met An Nuonuo.

In order to help her, did he introduce her to work here?

Jiang Xu also remembered once discreetly slipping some money to a customer, asking them to tip An Nuonuo.

So as not to hurt An Nuonuo’s pride.

Thinking back now, these are all fond memories.

Feeling sentimental, Jiang Xu parked his bike and walked in.

Their gathering was in a private room on the second floor.

Jiang Xu found a seat outside where he could see them going in.

To Jiang Xu’s surprise, the menu brought by the waiter… was very familiar.

He looked up and asked, “Do these dishes have some special significance?”

“Yes,” the waiter answered with a smile: “These dishes were all from when Mr. Jiang’s parents had their restaurant.

You know Mr. Jiang, right? The one who is Jiang Xu, who left Jiang City.

He has made many contributions to Jiang City, and he has also been the world’s richest man several times.

Our boss is Mr. Jiang’s biggest fan, so he bought this place at a high price later on.

He even replicated all the recipes from Mr. Jiang’s parents’ restaurant.

Boss, you can try them, they are very delicious.”

“What’s your boss named?” Jiang Xu became interested.

He didn’t expect to come for a meal and encounter a fan.

Although, there was a suspicion that the owner was riding on his coattails.

Perhaps it could even be an acquaintance.

“I’m not sure about that,” the waiter apologized with a smile: “The boss is quite mysterious, very few people have seen him, this is all heard from the manager.”

Jiang Xu did not continue to inquire and put down the menu, saying, “One sauteed squid with snow peas, a steamed yellow fish, and one seafood soup.”

Waiter: “Okay, sir, please wait a moment.”

Not long after the waiter left, several middle-aged men came over arm in arm, laughing and talking.

Jiang Xu didn’t recognize these people at first glance.

He took a second look and realized that they were his university classmates.

But compared to his memory, each of them had changed somewhat in physique.

Some had almost lost all their hair.

All had developed beer bellies, and the sharpness that was in their eyes fresh out of university had faded.

The edges had been worn down by society and life.

Watching them, Jiang Xu also felt a flood of emotions.

The changes were too significant.

Not everyone was as successful as Jiang Xu.

There are quite a few people who are actually not as well off.

Middle-aged people bear the weight of mortgages, car loans, supporting parents, raising children, and so on.

The pressure one needs to endure can be imagined.

If it were not for a second chance at life, Jiang Xu… would probably be in a similar state.

The old classmates stood at the entrance of the private room and didn’t go in right away.

Instead, they waited.

Soon after, a familiar figure appeared.

It was Jiang Xu’s ex-roommate, Jin Xiansheng!

The guy was dressed in casual wear, looking relaxed and still kept a good figure.

As roommates, although Jiang Xu never directly gave him money, he did look out for him from time to time.

So Jin Xiansheng was doing quite well, probably having a personal cash flow of two to three hundred million.

In the eyes of ordinary people, that’s a sky-high level.

This guy only got married five years ago and was previously frequenting various clubs, who knows how many membership cards he had.

Jin Xiansheng laughed and chatted with the few old classmates.

They didn’t enter the room until everyone had arrived.

The dishes Jiang Xu ordered were also served.

After taking a bite, Jiang Xu paused.

The taste of this dish… was exactly like what his parents made back then.

Goodness, this restaurant’s owner knows how to do business.

Or rather, understand metaphysics.

Affiliating with Jiang Xu, this super-rich tycoon, wouldn’t that mean thriving business?

Jiang Xu finished the meal at his own pace.

Wiped his mouth and showed a look of contentment.

For a moment, he felt as if he had returned to his high school days.

Time never comes back.

If only there were a time machine.

Jiang Xu would be willing to give up half of his fortune to return to his high school days.

“Check, please.” After a brief reminiscence, Jiang Xu raised his hand to signal the waiter to come over.

“Hello sir, the total is two hundred twenty-two yuan.”

Jiang Xu took out his phone and scanned the QR code provided by the waiter: “Transferred two million over, the expenses for the people in private room No. 6 can be deducted from this amount.

The excess amount, just tell the people in the room to split it among themselves.”

The waiter was shocked.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

Jiang Xu warned her lightly, “Don’t try any funny business, the ease with which I can give away two million shows my influence.”

The waiter nodded furiously, indicating that she would never dare to do such a thing, and assured Jiang Xu could be at ease.
