After being the pampered young lady of the Lu family for seventeen years, she discovered she was actually a fake heiress. Meng Anran decisively cut ties with the Lu family and returned to the finan...
Chapter 143: She Was Cuter When She Was a Child
The next morning, Meng Zhen, who hadn't slept well the night before, simply got up and dressed.
It’s my first official date with my idol, so I can’t embarrass him.
After washing up, she changed into the dress her sister picked out and sat in front of the dressing table to do her skin care and makeup.
I had just put on foundation when I heard a knock on the glass door on the balcony.
She went over and opened the curtains, and saw her sister smiling with her eyes curved, looking very well-behaved and lovely.
But Mengzhen always felt that her sister's smile was a bit meaningful, which made her feel uneasy.
She opened the door, and Meng Anran said softly, "Sister, I knew you were already up. Sit down and put on your makeup, and I'll help you with your hair."
I haven't been able to help my sister much in normal times, and this is her first time going on a date with the person she likes...her idol. Meng Anran definitely wants to do her part.
Besides, she has known Xiao Han for more than ten years, and no one knows what type of girls Xiao Han likes better than her.
Well...it shouldn't be said to be a type, it should be said that she knows very well what kind of dress Xiao Han likes. After all, people who are related to design have more demanding aesthetic requirements.
Meng Zhen sat in front of the mirror putting on makeup, and Meng Anran stood behind her and permed her hair into a large half-curl.
When the curls are combed open, the curves are natural and not exaggerated, adding a touch of elegance and refinement.
"You guys shouldn't go to the movies so early, right?" Meng Anran asked as she put away her curling iron.
"Well, actually we have a plan to have lunch at noon and then watch a movie after lunch."
Mengzhen felt a little embarrassed. They had an appointment at eleven o'clock, but she got up at seven o'clock to wash and dress, and even troubled her sister to come and help her with her hair.
"Hey, why don't you come with me to the company?" Meng Anran sat down on the bed and suggested sincerely, "You're dressed so beautifully today. Your parents will definitely ask you a lot of questions when they see you. You don't have anything to do at home anyway, so why not come with me to the company and have Xiao Han pick you up."
Meng Zhen took a deep breath and said, "No, no need for him to pick me up. I can just take a taxi there myself!"
"He took the initiative to ask you out, how could he let you take a taxi by yourself?" Meng Anran was the first to express her dissatisfaction. If her friend could behave so ungentlemanly, they would have broken up long ago.
Today, no matter whether Xiao Han is free or not, he must come to pick her up in person, otherwise he will never see Meng Zhen again.
Without giving Meng Zhen a chance to say more, Meng Anran put away the curling iron and patted her shoulder. "Sister, I'm going to go back and change clothes first. Come out with me later!"
Meng Anran returned to her room, changed her clothes casually, put on some light makeup to enhance her complexion in five minutes, picked out a bag, packed her necessities, and left the room.
I met Meng Chenghong who had just woken up.
Meng Chenghong had a messy hair and was yawning. The moment he saw his second sister, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
I couldn't help but think of the time when my second sister caught me on a date at the amusement park last week.
Yesterday, when everyone in the family was there, he and his second sister pretended that they hadn't seen each other since the Lunar New Year. Fortunately, his second sister kept her promise and didn't say anything.
But now! At this moment! He felt guilty!
Meng Chenghong smiled awkwardly, "Second sister, good morning, are you going to work? Let's go quickly so you don't get late, and be careful on the road."
After finishing what she needed to say in one breath, Meng Anran curled the corners of her lips and glared at him with a half-smile, "You kid can't wait for me to disappear, right?"
"How could that be!" Meng Chenghong took two steps forward, hooked his arm around Meng Anran's, shook it, and whispered, "Second sister, I know you're the best. You'll definitely help me keep this secret, right?"
Meng Anran gave him a look of disdain and said, "If I had exposed you, you would have been completely dead yesterday."
Meng Chenghong chuckled, "Second sister, you are a very good person. I wish you eternal youth! Get rich soon! Live happily with Brother Mu and grow old together!"
Meng Anran: "...You were cuter when you were a child."
Hearing the sound of the brother and sister bickering, Meng Zhen opened the door and walked out.
The moment she saw her, Meng Chenghong's eyes suddenly lit up, "Sister, you look so beautiful today! Are you going to Cannes to walk the red carpet?"
Mengzhen is just a little taciturn, but she is not introverted or inferior. When she was in college, she rehearsed programs with her classmates and performed in performances. She has never been a person who gets stage fright.
Only when facing her idol would her heart beat uncontrollably faster and she would show a bit of little girl's shyness.
So when she heard her brother's teasing, she turned away with an unpleasant look, "Stop teasing me! You'd better clean up your messy hair!"
Meng Anran found it funny to see her brother's hair style that looked like a work of art, and she couldn't help but take out her cell phone to take an ugly photo of him when he wasn't paying attention.
She obviously didn't like doing such boring things before, but now she feels that any happy or special aspects of her family are worth recording.
I can feel that I have changed a lot in the past few years, and the connection between me and my family has become closer.
From the beginning, when I felt the sincerity of my family, I felt a sense of discomfort. I was afraid that I would have expectations of family affection like when I was a child, but end up with nothing.
Later, with Qin Mu's encouragement, she gradually opened her heart and let down her guard, trying to accept her family's kindness and also trying to return some sincerity.
Now, she has completely integrated into this family and enjoys the love of her family calmly and comfortably.
She is very lucky to be able to return to Mengjia, a place full of love.
"Sister, let's go." Meng Anran pulled her arm out of her brother's arms, then took her sister's hand and led her to the stairs. Without looking back, she left her brother with one sentence: "Tell mom and dad later that we sisters will not be back for lunch."
"Ah? Where are you going to play? Can't you take me with you?" Meng Chenghong stared at the backs of his two sisters complainingly. He also wanted to go play with his sisters. "Take me with you! I can help you carry your bags!"
Unfortunately, the two beauties ignored him.
Well, today I can only stay at home and watch TV with my parents.
I went downstairs to drink a glass of water, returned to my room to wash and change clothes, and was about to go to the study downstairs for my daily training, but I saw my parents dressed up and getting ready to go out.
"Where are you going?" Meng Chenghong's small eyes were full of confusion.
Su Wanman smiled brightly, holding her husband's hand intimately. She said, "Let's go on a date! It's rare that your father and I don't have to work anymore. We need to go and recapture the good old days."
Meng Chenghong: ???
His two older sisters were out playing, and his parents were going out on a date, so did that mean he and his brother were the only ones left at home as left-behind children today?
"Let's go. If you're hungry, order some takeout!" Meng Rong waved his hand and transferred three hundred yuan to Meng Chenghong. He smiled so much that wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes, and went out with his beautiful wife.
Meng Chenghong stared at the 300 yuan transfer on his mobile phone, feeling a little melancholy for a moment.
He ran upstairs and knocked on Meng Yushu's door. "Brother, there are only two of us at home. Why don't we go out and play?"
The door opened, and Meng Yushu was wearing a pure white casual suit. His scattered short hair could not hide his handsomeness.
He smiled gently, "I have an appointment with Qiao Yichen for lunch at noon, let's go together."
Meng Chenghong's mouth pursed as if he was about to cry. He rushed over and hugged his brother, "Brother, you are still the best to me!"
