Chapter 342 You are ridiculous

Meng Anran snorted. No matter what time it was, Lu Yi's words were always so shameless that they left people speechless.

"I don't want to argue with you." She glanced at him and turned away.

The whispers around rose and fell like raindrops.

"Why is Lu Yi here? Doesn't he always have a problem with Meng Anran?"

"I haven't seen him since Liu Zhi and Ming Jing's engagement party. He's been gone for so long and suddenly shows up. It must be something bad!"

"Oh, I think it's better for him to come than Lu Heng. At most, he can just mess things up a bit, but Lu Heng is a monster..."

Before he finished speaking, Meng Anran's voice, half-smiling and half-smiling, drifted over: "Everyone, what's the topic that's so fascinating? May I join in?"

The man suddenly shut up and said awkwardly, "I'm praising Mr. An. The architecture of your resort is very unique."

What happened at Liu Ming's engagement party must not be spread, and those who knew about it were silenced that night.

If the gossips spread even a little bit of information, there will be no place for him in the Beijing business community in the future.

Meng Anran's lips curled up, but her eyes were filled with a cold warning, "It's not just the architecture, the food here is also very unique. Please enjoy it."

What it means is that if you are bored, eat more to shut your mouth and talk less gossip.

The man shuddered uncontrollably, forced an awkward smile, and nodded in response, "Thank you, Mr. An, for your hospitality. I'll definitely try them all."

After that, no matter how curious others were about what he meant by "monster", he stopped talking and changed the subject.

Lu Yi stood aside and took in the whole scene, with an intriguing smile in his charming eyes.

What kind of medicine did that bastard Lu Heng give his good sister during the time he was unconscious?

Why is she protecting him like this now?

It's annoying enough to have Qin Mu coveting her, and now even Lu Heng has caught up with her without her noticing!

It seems that I have to use some tricks to keep my sister by my side.

The opening ceremony went smoothly. Meng Anran simply went on stage to give a speech and then handed the situation over to Qin Mu.

"I'll leave this to you. I'm going to the party." Meng Anran stood on tiptoe and kissed Qin Mu on the cheek. "Thank you for your hard work."

Qin Mu put his arm around her waist, lowered his head and asked for a kiss, the doting in his eyes was sweeter than honey, "Go ahead, don't let gossip affect your mood, call me anytime if you need anything."

Meng Anran chuckled and nodded, then turned around and found Liu Zhi and Ming Jing who had been waiting for a long time.

The light in the corridor stretched the three people's shadows very long. Liu Zhi pushed Ming Jing's hand away and put her arm around her best friend, whispering, "Chen Xiwen was staring at you and Qin Mu just now, his eyes like a venomous snake."

"When has she not been like this?" Meng Anran said calmly. Whenever she recalled Chen Xiwen's frame-up of her in junior high school, she found it absurd. "I thought she would become mature after growing up, but she is even more childish than before."

When you first fall in love, you are so naive that you can spread rumors about your friends just because you have a little affection for the opposite sex.

Now, it is naive to believe that a few simple words can overwhelm financial power and win respect among the business tycoons.

Thinking of the little episode just now, Liu Zhi also found it funny and said sarcastically, "How can people who are not in this circle understand? In the face of money and power, no one cares about the so-called dignity of insignificant people."

Although they are both in their twenties, they have been wandering in the world of fame and fortune since childhood, and have seen and experienced more.

It may seem glamorous and unattainable on the surface, but this circle is full of dangers. The greater the temptation, the deeper the abyss. Who hasn't grown up cautiously and endured all the way?

"For Chen Xiwen, we grew up with a silver spoon in our mouths and cannot understand the suffering of the world."

Ming Jing suddenly spoke, his tone somewhat indifferent: "For us, they have lived in a relatively clean environment since childhood and have not seen much darkness."

Therefore, it is childish to be jealous and envious of others over trivial matters, which is too absurd in their eyes.

The reason why people are willing to attend class reunions is, firstly, for social connections, and secondly, for reputation considerations to avoid being gossiped about.

It’s not that there is really any friendship between classmates worth remembering.

The moment Meng Anran pushed open the door of the box, she was overwhelmed by the noise.

The old classmates sat around the long table, and someone raised his glass and cheered: "Our top student in the grade is here!"

Under the warm yellow light, Chen Xiwen was sitting next to Du Congnan. Seeing him stand up and want to say hello, he immediately grabbed his wrist and said, "Student Du, why are you so anxious? When you two met privately and were caught by the teacher, you weren't so enthusiastic."

The laughter in the box stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Chen Xiwen in confusion.

Liu Zhi's fingers instantly pinched Meng Anran's arm. Her bestie guessed correctly, she really wanted to beat someone up!

Ming Jing kept an eye on his wife. Pregnancy made her prone to irritability. Seeing that she looked like she was about to attack him, he quickly pulled her into his arms.

Meng Anran calmly pulled out a chair and sat down: "You have a really good memory. You can't even remember that I scored 32 points higher than you in the final exam of my second year of junior high school, but you remember these insignificant things."

Du Congnan pulled his hand back awkwardly, "Stop joking around, An Ran and Qin Mu are very close."

"That's right," Chen Xiwen pointedly looked at Meng Anran's empty ring finger. "They've been inseparable for so many years, dating for five years but still haven't gotten married. Could it be that... you're still thinking about your old classmates?"

Liu Zhi couldn't help herself this time. She slammed the table and stood up, her expression stern: "Chen Xiwen, if you have a mental problem, jump into the fountain outside and clear your mind. What are you talking about here?"

Chen Xiwen was startled, but then smiled contentedly: "It's just a joke. An Ran isn't angry, so why are you so anxious? You can't get angry when you're pregnant. Don't blame me if you get a miscarriage later."

Liuzhi clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles crackled.

Ming Jing wrapped his large palm around her fist, as if to offer some comfort. His eyes swept over Chen Xiwen sharply, "It's indeed funny, but it's not your joke that's funny, it's you as a person who's ridiculous."

"You!" Chen Xiwen's pupils suddenly shrank. "You and Liu Zhi are just a business marriage. You sold out your feelings and your marriage for profit. What qualifications do you have to judge me?"

"Old classmates, we haven't seen each other for so many years. We finally get together, so let's talk less." As the class monitor back then, Fang Yu now has to act as a peacemaker to break the cold atmosphere.

Meng Anran slowly poured a cup of tea for Liu Zhi and chuckled, "The squad leader is right. It's rare for us to get together, so let's not talk about the past. Let's talk about the recent situation."

She put down the teapot and looked up at Chen Xiwen. Although there was a smile on her face, it made people feel cold in their hearts.

"Xiwen, I heard you were promoted to director some time ago? Tang Wen's salary is pretty good, right?"

Chen Xiwen was shocked. She had never posted anything related to work on her Moments. How did Meng Anran know that she worked at "Tangwen Culture Company"?
