Chapter 145 Don't let your cousin hear this, he's a jealous man.

"Sister-in-law, I'm sure you've already felt your cousin's love."

Li Mai shook her head: "No."

Zhang Jingran took out her phone: "Then I'll call my cousin now and tell him to come over and make a good impression."

When Li Mai saw that she was really going to call Zhou Songyan, she reached out and snatched the phone away.

"Okay, okay, I feel it."

If Zhou Songyan comes over, will we still be able to enjoy this meal properly?

Zhang Jingran covered her mouth and laughed, nudged Li Mai's arm, and gossiped, "Sister-in-law, did you sleep with my cousin?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Li Mai was taken aback by her sudden words and covered her mouth, coughing incessantly.

You Huan handed her a glass of water, and Li Mai drank several mouthfuls of it.

You Huan: "Jingran, why did you ask so directly? It's embarrassing for your cousin-in-law!"

Before Zhang Jingran could speak, You Huan rested her chin on her hand and looked at Li Mai: "So, you guys are asleep?"

Zhang Jingran: "..."

Are their questions different?

Two blushes appeared on Li Mai's cheeks.

She put down her water glass and said softly, "Of course I'm asleep."

"Wow!"

"Wow wow wow!"

Li Mai: "How could Chengcheng be here if I'm not asleep!"

Zhang Jingran: "..."

You Huan: "What we mean is whether we're sleeping now, five years from now."

Li Mai looked at them with a smile: "Want to know?"

"Mmm! I want it so badly!"

Li Mai raised an eyebrow slightly: "I'm not going to tell you."

You Huan and Zhang Jingran: "..."

You Huan took a big bite of the shrimp and said, "You guys must be asleep!"

Zhang Jingran: "Why do you think that?"

You Huan: "Experience."

Zhang Jingran: "Is this experience gained from sleeping with Brother Zixu?"

You Huan: "..."

Zhang Jingran, who was originally sitting with Li Mai on one side, ran over to sit next to You Huan, grabbed her arm, and asked with shining eyes, "Sister You Huan, tell me about your time in bed with Brother Zixu. How many times did you two do it in one night? What positions did you use? Are you satisfied with Brother Zixu's performance in that area?"

You Huan felt a headache coming on and pushed her away: "If you're so curious, why don't you find a man to try it out yourself?"

Zhang Jingran rested her chin on her hand, looking troubled: "But I don't have a boyfriend, so I can't just drag any man along to try this out."

Li Mai chimed in, "Yes, you can't do anything reckless. You're still young, there's no rush. You absolutely mustn't do 'that' with just any man."

You Huan pouted.

Li Mai hasn't married Zhou Songyan yet, but she's already treating Zhang Jingran like her cousin-in-law and protecting her.

Zhang Jingran nodded: "Sister-in-law, you're right, I'll listen to you. I definitely can't just find any man to try it out with, what if he has an STD or something, I'll be in big trouble."

Li Mai picked up a piece of beef for her: "This child is very alert, here's a reward!"

You Huan: "..."

Zhang Jingran remembered that Sheng Xi had just scolded You Huan.

"Sister You Huan, do you know Sheng Xi?"

You Huan said nonchalantly, "I'm not familiar with Sheng Xi, but I am familiar with Sheng Lin."

"How familiar are you?"

“I was with Sheng Lin for five years, and I was his secretary before that.”

Zhang Jingran: "..."

She never expected such a shocking thing to happen.

"You've been with Sheng Lin for so many years, how come I've never seen him bring you out?"

They were all from the same circle. The Sheng family was of average status, but they were still considered one of the most prominent wealthy families in Beijing. They would run into each other at banquets.

Logically speaking, everyone in their circle should know that You Huan and Sheng Lin have been dating for five years.

She knew nothing about it, and wasn't even familiar with You Huan.

She also knew that Sheng Lin was engaged to the Zhao family's daughter.

Why did You Huan break up with Sheng Lin? Was it because Sheng Lin got engaged? There must be some complicated story behind it.

Li Mai pulled Zhang Jingran aside, signaling her with her eyes not to ask any more questions.

Zhang Jingran realized what was happening and said apologetically, "Sister You Huan, I'm sorry, I was too talkative. You don't need to answer me."

You Huan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's all in the past, there's nothing that can't be said. My relationship with Sheng Lin was not made public, and apart from the Sheng family, almost no one knew about it."

Only Li Mai knew about this on her side.

Zhang Jingran slammed her hand on the table: "Scumbag!"

Men who don't want to go public with their relationships and are trying to save themselves a secret are all scumbags.

You Huan ate her food casually, her expression indifferent: "It's all in the past, I don't want him anymore."

Zhang Jingran suddenly fell silent.

Although she's usually loud and boisterous, she's not stupid.

In situations like these, it's best to say as little as possible.

Li Mai served them food, saying, "Eat, the food's getting cold."

...

As they left the restaurant, You Huan was stopped by Sheng Lin: "Huanhuan, let's talk."

Zhang Jingran stepped forward, hands on her hips, blocking You Huan's path, and glared at Sheng Lin with her chin raised: "Talk to your sister! What's there to talk to you about!"

Li Mai: "..."

She loves that fiery temper!

Sheng Lin frowned at Zhang Jingran: "This has nothing to do with you, get out of here."

Zhang Jingran: "I'm not leaving! You already have a fiancée, why are you bothering my sister You Huan? You have no manners, you're disgusting!"

Sheng Lin: "..."

His face was incredibly dark.

No one has ever said that about him before.

“Zhang Jingran, don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you’re a member of the Zhou family. My patience has its limits.”

Li Mai spoke up: "The Zhou family members do not act arbitrarily. Every member of the Zhou family is upright, honest, and responsible. The Zhou family members would not deceive others' feelings."

Zhang Jingran clapped her hands: "Sister-in-law, you're absolutely right! That's exactly how the Zhou family is. You've hit the nail on the head."

Li Mai: "..."

Sheng Lin's expression darkened further after being implied.

But he persisted: "This is between Huanhuan and me, you all move aside."

Li Mai: "Don't call me that, it makes us feel sick."

Zhang Jingran: "Late-blown affection is more despicable than a dog's. Can't you just be a dead ex-boyfriend?"

Li Mai: "He's not being affectionate at all, he's just shameless."

Zhang Jingran: "Oh, I misspoke. Scumbags don't have feelings. Scumbags are just bastards."

Li Mai coldly glanced at Sheng Lin: "Mr. Sheng, have some self-respect. You are a person of some standing."

Zhang Jingran: "If you keep bothering Sister You Huan, I'll tell the Zhao family's daughter what you did and ruin the marriage between your two families."

Sheng Lin: "..."

You Huan: "..."

Li Mai and Zhang Jingran kept talking back and forth, which made Sheng Lin angry and leave.

The two gave each other a high five.

Zhang Jingran: "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to be so strong. I thought you were a cold and aloof little rabbit, the kind who wouldn't fight back or talk back when you were hit or scolded. I didn't expect you to be so good at cursing."

Li Mai patted her on the shoulder: "Well, we have you as our teacher to guide us."

Zhang Jingran laughed heartily and put her arm around Li Mai's shoulder: "Sister-in-law, I like you so much."

Li Mai: "Don't let your cousin hear this, he's incredibly jealous."

Zhang Jingran covered her mouth and laughed: "I know, I know."

You Huan shook her head helplessly.

These two are so cute!

...

A few days later, Li Mai received a message from Zheng Anze.

He and Li Shirong boarded the car to Beijing.

Li Mai randomly booked a hotel and sent the order to Zheng Anze.
