Chapter 1387: Where does the man with hundreds of billions of assets sit?

Ye Bufan and Lan Bingyu walked into the clubhouse. Their class reunion was on a large scale, having booked a small banquet hall. At this moment, twenty to thirty people had already gathered, chatting in small groups.

After entering, Lan Bingyu greeted her classmates while Ye Bufan watched quietly from the side.

Someone once said that class reunions after becoming adults are a form of showing off. While not entirely true, there's a significant Major Achievement to it.

The people present, with different skin colors and from all corners of the world, were all doing the same thing: showing off.

Some showed off their jobs, some their wealth, and those who had nothing began to show off their significant others. In short, everyone wanted to display their success and uniqueness in front of their classmates.

Pan Hao's explanation was unclear, but now Huang Xiaoqi and he had returned to their previous expressions, constantly moving among their classmates.

In contrast, Lan Bingyu remained very calm and composed. After greeting everyone, she and Ye Bufan sat down nearby.

Just then, a tall woman walked in from outside. That's right, 'tall' was the perfect word for her, as she was even more robust than some men.

Alicia was also tall, but her figure was well-proportioned and sexy, and her face was delicate. This woman, however, was only average, yet her face held an unruly arrogance.

"Her name is Emily. Her uncle is a head of the Public Security Bureau and holds great power. Because of this, she was very arrogant in our class, almost a female tyrant.

Once, she had a dispute with a classmate, and the next day, that person was arrested and taken to the Public Security Bureau."

Ye Bufan nodded, "Your relationship doesn't seem to be very good."

"That's right. She likes Pirlo, and Pirlo likes me. Although none of this has anything to do with me, she blames me for everything.

She always liked to cause trouble for me during school, but it's nothing. Just ignore people like her."

As they were talking, the door opened, and several more male classmates walked in.

Leading them was a blonde, blue-eyed Caucasian man, at least 1.90 meters tall, looking very tall and strong, with a gentlemanly smile on his face.

It must be said that this man was quite handsome, but Ye Bufan could tell that his smile hid a sinister cunning; he was definitely a wolf in sheep's clothing, not someone easy to deal with.

Behind him followed several other male classmates, clearly his followers.

"That's Pirlo."

Lan Bingyu whispered.

Ye Bufan nodded, "He seems pretty good, looks very strong."

"He's an athletic specialist and a boxer. He's very popular with the girls in our class."

Lan Bingyu whispered into Ye Bufan's ear, making their posture appear very intimate. Just then, Pirlo's gaze happened to fall upon them, and the smile on his face instantly vanished.

He stepped forward to them. "Dear Lan, who is this? Your friend?"

"Let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Ye Bufan. And this is my classmate, Pirlo."

Lan Bingyu was prepared and calmly introduced the two.

Upon hearing about their relationship, Pirlo's expression first froze, then he smiled again. "Mr. Ye, welcome to our class reunion. I hope you have a good time."

After speaking, he nodded to Lan Bingyu and then walked to another area.

Lan Bingyu, a little nervous, reminded him, "Xiao Fan, you need to be careful. This guy is very cunning; who knows what tricks he might pull."

Ye Bufan smiled slightly; such a small character was not worth his attention.

"Don't worry, didn't I say I'm your shield? I can block any blade, gun, sword, or halberd."

Pirlo walked over to his followers and whispered a few words to a little guy. Soon, that guy started to organize things.

"Alright, classmates, most of us are here. The reunion officially begins now."

The little guy's voice was loud; even without a microphone, everyone could hear him clearly.

"The significant others brought by classmates might not know me. Let me introduce myself. My name is Jack, and I'm organizing this reunion at Pirlo's request.

Now we'll arrange the seating. There are many people, so we need a principle. How about this?

Those with assets from 100,000 usd to 1 million usd will sit at the third table, those with 1 million usd to 10 million usd at the second table, and those with over 10 million usd at the first table."

As soon as he finished speaking, the room erupted in an uproar. No one expected seats to be assigned in such a way.

"Isn't this a class reunion? Why are we being divided into Ranks based on income?"

"Exactly, what is this about?"

Many people expressed their dissatisfaction. At this point, Pirlo, with a beaming smile, said, "I think this

seating arrangement is good. How about I lead the way?"

After saying that, he pulled out a chair and was the first to sit at the first table, designated for those with over 10 million usd.

Ye Bufan smiled slightly. He naturally understood that this was all arranged by Pirlo, intending to humiliate him and display his superiority in front of Lan Bingyu.

Since the organizer didn't say anything, others naturally couldn't object.

Moreover, Lan Bingyu had attended a very expensive private school back then, and these people all came from wealthy Families, so they quickly found and took their corresponding seats.

Soon, most of the people in the room were seated, leaving only Lan Bingyu and Ye Bufan standing.

Jack seemed to just notice the two of them and looked at Ye Bufan, saying mockingly, "Oh, Bingyu, why aren't you and this gentleman sitting down yet? Is there no suitable seat for you?

Could it be that this gentleman doesn't even earn 100,000 usd a year? If so, please leave. You really don't have the qualifications to sit with everyone else."

This was indeed all Pirlo's doing. He had just seen Ye Bufan's ordinary attire and assumed he was just a common person without money.

That's why he came up with this method, intending to directly exclude this love rival who had suddenly appeared from the reunion.

In his opinion, if he did this, even if the other party was thick-skinned, he wouldn't dare to stay here.

Lan Bingyu frowned, "Jack, this is a class reunion. Why do we need to divide Ranks by money?"

Jack said with a playful smile, "Actually, there's a reason for this division. After all, everyone has graduated and entered society. Wealth corresponds to personal ability, which makes it easier to see which of our classmates are more capable.

For example, our organizer, Young Master Pirlo, not only has a wealthy Family, but his personal ability after graduation is also exceptional. He is now a manager in the sales department at Angel Pharmaceuticals, with an annual income of over a million usd."

Ye Bufan stopped Lan Bingyu, then said playfully, "I also think this method is good, but your range is too broad. According to your standard, there's simply no seat for me."

As soon as he said this, the crowd burst into laughter. Everyone realized that Pirlo was targeting this Chinese man.

Jack said mockingly, "I already said, if you don't even have 100,000 usd, what right do you have to sit with us? Please leave."

Ye Bufan shook his head, "That's not what I meant. I just want to ask, where should someone with assets in the hundreds of billions sit?"
