The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 900

Jacob nodded slightly as he thought about their previous class reunion. During that gathering, many o f their old classmates had teased Jacob about his previous love triangle with Matilda and Elaine.

At this time, Jacob told Matilda seriously, "Matilda, some of our old classmates will definitely tease us about the incident that happened back then during our class reunion today. I hope that you won't take it too seriously and you shouldn't take what they say to heart. They are just a bunch of rude and old people!" 6

Matilda smiled slightly before she said, "I don't mind i f they joke around, as long as they aren't distorting the facts. If I was really afraid that they would ridicule me, then I wouldn't have arranged for this class reunion today! All of our old classmates have not seen me for more than twenty years now! What is the point of teasing me now?" 7

When they arrived at the National Bell Height University, Jacob parked his car at the parking lot near the entrance of the school. After that, Jacob and Matilda walked side by side as they headed towards the university.

Since classes had already started, the campus was very quiet at this time.

Both of them walked on the concrete road of the campus. At this time, Jacob told Matilda, "Our university has already been rebuilt and renovated the campus several times over the years. Therefore, it no longer looks the way it did in the past. To be honest, our campus was actually pretty old and run down in the past."

"Yes!” Matilda sighed as she said, "I remember that we only had one concrete road leading to our campus. That is the road that is directly in front of the school gate. The other roads were all paved with slag and ash. Sometimes, the school would even ask the local students to bring some burnt briquettes from home to pave the road. The road would always be very muddy and disgusting whenever it rained at that time. However, I kind of miss it a little now that we're talking about it." s

"Yes, yes, yes!" Jacob replied as he smiled, "Back then, I would always bring some burnt briquettes from home to school. Do you still remember that we were supposed to hold a sports meeting at school in the past but the track on our school grounds was simply i n a very bad condition? At that time, we tried all sorts of ways and means just to get more materials that could be used to pave the road." 1

Matilda smiled before she said, "Of course, I remember! At that time, you used your allowance to pay many male students to accompany you on tricycles and go around the city to buy more burnt briquettes." s
