It's Really Jiang Siming!

"Is this... Jiang Siming?"

"It really is him? Impossible."

"He does look a bit like him, but the change is too drastic."

"Do you think he heard us talking about him just now?"

"He definitely heard. Even a deaf person could’ve heard from this distance."

"So what? If he heard, he heard. What’s the big deal? Just because he’s not doing well, we’re not allowed to mention it?"

"Exactly. Look at what he’s wearing—who comes to a reunion in casual clothes? Is he trying to be funny?"

The group of men quickly resumed their normal demeanor, continuing to wait for their "most important guest." As for Jiang Siming, he was already forgotten by them.

Jiang Siming walked toward the third floor, shaking his head in disappointment. This class reunion turned out exactly as he had expected—utterly disappointing.
