Chapter 185: Eating
Xu Yihuan had a slight impression of this classmate; it seemed he was also in their small department.
But the name Wen Zhou sounded completely unfamiliar.
"Who is Wen Zhou?" Xu Yihuan asked as she walked.
Upon hearing this question, her classmate looked at her in surprise: "You don't know him? Wen Zhou is that refreshing and handsome young man with dimples when he smiles."
Then, a gossipy smile appeared on the corner of the classmate's mouth: "I heard that this team building activity was suggested by Wen Zhou and the department head. It seems that he is going to confess to the girl he likes. And this team building activity was also paid for by him! He's a rich kid."
Xu Yihuan wasn't very interested in these things, and listened with little enthusiasm: "That's pretty impressive."
The young student didn't understand what she was so proud of, but couldn't resist her curiosity: "Who do you think Wen Zhou likes? It's probably someone from our department, right?"
Xu Yihuan shook her head and quickened her pace: "I'm not quite sure."
Besides the land issue, Tang Wanhua recently contacted her again, apparently about a spot for an overseas study program. It wouldn't be long, probably only about a week.
She had to hurry back to prepare the materials.
The two chatted casually and soon arrived at the private room.
Surprisingly, many people had already arrived, and only a few seats were left.
Xu Yihuan spotted the boy in the main seat immediately.
Clean-cut and with dimples, this must be Wen Zhou.
Xu Yihuan casually found a corner to sit down.
We finished our meal quietly.
Seeing that it was almost time, Xu Yihuan stood up and said goodbye to everyone.
Hearing this, Ke Wenzhou became a little anxious and immediately stood up: "Are you finished eating? Shall I take you home?"
Xu Yihuan declined: "No need, I have someone to pick me up."
Pei Yutang was naturally present at this team-building event. Upon hearing these words, the first thing that came to Pei Yutang's mind was that Xu Yihuan's poor boyfriend was coming to pick her up.
Pei Yutang felt a surge of secret joy. She was always proud, but she was prone to losing her composure in front of Xu Yihuan without realizing it.
He stood up, feigning arrogance, and said, "It's about time. I've finished eating. You can continue eating."
The group originally wanted to go to the karaoke bar again, but since the two of them were leaving, no one dared to bring it up.
Like ducks being forced onto a shelf, they all stood up and said they wanted to leave.
Upon hearing Xu Yihuan's rejection, Wen Zhou's bright, watery dog eyes were filled with disappointment.
Seeing his reaction, everyone simultaneously thought of the rumor that Wen Zhou had organized the gathering to confess his feelings to someone else.
If this rumor is true, then the person being confessed to must be Xu Yihuan, right?
After seeing Xu Yihuan leave, Wen Zhou eagerly followed behind him, and everyone believed this speculation without a doubt.
Somehow, things escalated into a large group of people heading out.
Just as they stepped outside, a figure came into view.
Everyone stopped in their tracks, their eyes fixed on the figure.
"Holy crap, Director Pei?!"
"No way? I actually saw Director Pei here? Help, Mom, I've made something of myself."
"Who dares to go up and ask for a photo?"
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone saw a figure walk out from the crowd.
"aunt!"
aunt? ! ! !
Pei Yutang successfully drew everyone's attention to her.
But Pei Yutang didn't seem to think she had done anything wrong.
She trotted forward and took Pei Yi'an's arm.
She asked affectionately, "Auntie, what are you doing here?"
Pei Yi'an was somewhat surprised, but her expression softened again: "You're having dinner with someone else, and Tangtang is here too? What a coincidence. Do you want your aunt to take you home later?"
"No need, Auntie, I've already called a driver."
Pei Yi'an didn't say anything more after hearing this, but just patted Pei Yutang's head.
"Yes, Auntie has something to do. Have fun on your own. If you run out of money, just tell Auntie."
Pei Yutang nodded happily.
Pei Yi'an was probably in a real hurry, because she got into the car after saying those words.
I opened the car door and got into the passenger seat.
It's a Maybach.
No one was surprised; they assumed Pei Yi'an was in such a hurry because she had some event planned. However, given Pei Yutang's position, she could clearly see the driver's face.
Pei Yutang's expression froze.
Fear and anger surged up in my heart at the same time.
This person is clearly Xu Yi's biological father!
How could Pei Yi'an be with Xu Yihuan's biological father?!
Doesn't that mean we're back to where we started?
Watching the car's exhaust fumes disappear, Pei Yutang pursed her lips and made a silent resolution.
She absolutely cannot let the two of them be together, and she absolutely cannot let Pei Yi'an regain her memory!
Otherwise, she would lose everything she has gained today.
And Pei Yuli...
Thinking back to what her grandfather meant during dinner, he probably wanted Pei Yuli to help her regain her memories, right?
No! Absolutely not!
She already killed that hypnotist, why is there still so much going on?!
Pei Yutang felt a surge of irritation.
Until a gasp came from the side.
"Tangtang, Director Pei is your aunt? Why have you never said that?"
The vice minister, who was always arrogant, asked with a smile.
Pei Yutang then adjusted her breathing and glanced at Xu Yihuan.
Oh well, as long as I'm the one in the limelight right now, that's fine.
Pei Yutang smiled and said, "What's there to say? It's just a family relationship."
People were amazed by her low-key demeanor and hoped to build a good relationship with her.
Thus, a constant stream of topics surrounded Pei Yutang.
Xu Yihuan didn't react much, but watched the departing car with great interest.
This license plate, this car model.
If I remember correctly, this is her biological father's car.
Her biological father is still the most powerful.
She's only been here a short time, and she's already going on a date with her mother.
As Xu Yihuan was thinking, a voice suddenly came from beside her: "Huanhuan, do you want to come back with me?"
"We should be going the same way, right?"
Seeing that Xu Yihuan wasn't paying attention to her, Pei Yutang took the initiative to speak.
Xu Yihuan was stunned for a moment, unsure of what expression to make.
"No need, thank you."
No sooner had she finished speaking than a Volkswagen pulled up in front of Xu Yihuan.
The car window rolled down, and an exceptionally handsome face appeared before everyone.
Tan Zhixu's gaze fell on Xu Yihuan, and he tilted his head: "Do you want me to go downstairs and open the door for you?"
There are very few unnecessary formalities between them.
Xu Yihuan rolled her eyes in annoyance and quickly opened the car door and got in.
Soon, the headlights came on, and all that could be seen were the car's exhaust fumes.
"Wow, so...she's with Tan Zhixu?"
"Why didn't Tan Zhixu come today?"
"You know what, they actually make a good match."
Everyone's eyes instinctively fell on Wen Zhou.
Wen Zhou's face didn't look good. He didn't intend to confess his feelings today, but he felt that he had to express his attitude solemnly.
Only then could he have a chance to pursue her, but unexpectedly, Xu Yihuan already had a boyfriend...
"Hey, you guys are really something, it's not like we only care about looks."
"Xu Yihuan's conditions are not good enough. If I remember correctly, how come she only dated someone who drives a Volkswagen?"
The group paused briefly, glancing cautiously at Wen Zhou. After all, they felt obligated to speak well of him and began to belittle him without restraint.
"Yeah, this beat-up Volkswagen, even my maid doesn't drive it to buy groceries."
"Something worth over 100,000 yuan probably wouldn't even buy one of Tangtang's handbags."
"You could say Tan Zhixu was very lucky..."
Hearing these words, Wen Zhou didn't react much, only looking in the direction they left with some disappointment, muttering, "Is that so... But that was a Phaeton..."
Pei Yutang looked quite smug, and even had time to tell her little follower, "Don't talk nonsense. Aren't Volkswagens also bought by their own company? What difference could there be? They're all the same."
Today was really nice. Not only did I run into Pei Yi'an, but I also got to see Xu Yihuan make a fool of herself.
Everyone fell silent. They'd seen people pretend before, but never one this pretentious.
