Chapter 501: Each Takes What They Need
Zhang Zijun didn't know what to say to Meng Qianjin. He asked, "Meng Qianjin, are you stupid?"
"I didn't say anything. I just asked him what was going on with Gu Xiaosi and why they weren't on good terms." Meng Qianjin was also helpless! He really liked Dong Jianhong now. She was a top student at Peking University. It would be so prestigious if he told others about it!
"What did he tell you?" Zhang Zijun asked. He wanted to see what reason the woman would give.
"Jianhong didn't say anything," Meng Qianjin said vaguely, "It's normal for little girls to have conflicts over trivial matters!"
After all, he is his cousin, so Zhang Zijun said earnestly: "The woman you plan to marry is different from those who play around casually. You have to find someone who is quiet and not troublesome. At least she won't cause you any trouble.
Look, she hasn't done anything yet, but she's already provoked someone. It's not that Xiao Si can't be provoked, but if she provoked Xiao Si today, who will she provoke tomorrow? "
Meng Qianjin frowned, but he still said, "She probably just doesn't want to get along with Gu Xiaosi."
Seeing that he wouldn't listen, Zhang Zijun stood up angrily and said, "I don't know what she said about Xiao Si in front of you, but you'd better ask her what exactly caused the conflict between her and Xiao Si. Xiao Si wouldn't hate someone for no reason."
Zhang Zijun left angrily. Meng Qianjin took out a cigarette and smoked it with a frown. He had been upset recently because of Dong Jianhong's quarrel with his family, and now Dong Jianhong was causing trouble again.
He stood up, cigarette in hand, and walked out, then drove to Peking University to find Dong Jianhong. They had already made an appointment, and when he arrived at the gate of Peking University, he saw Dong Jianhong standing by the roadside waiting for him.
The car drove over, the window rolled down and he said, "Get in."
Dong Jianhong smiled and opened the passenger door. After getting in, she said coquettishly, "Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Meng Qianjin hummed, took out another cigarette, lit it, and asked, "What did you say to Gu Xiaosi today?"
Dong Jianhong didn't expect him to ask this question right away. After a moment of silence, she said aggrievedly, "Auntie, because she had a bad impression of me, I wanted to smooth things over with her. I only said nice things, nothing else."
"Didn't you say that she said bad things about you in front of my mother?" Meng Qianjin asked.
"I'm telling you, if there's anything we can just talk about it, don't bring it up in front of our elders." Dong Jianhong's eyes started to turn red, and she added, "I know your family is related to hers, so why would you say something unpleasant to her? I'm already trying to curry favor with her."
Hearing her say this, Meng Qianjin sighed, patted her head, and said, "There's no need for you to curry favor with her. If you can't get along, then you can't. Gu Xiaosi didn't say anything in front of my mom. She just said that you two aren't familiar with each other and your relationship isn't close. If you don't have a good relationship, don't get close to her in the future. Just stay away."
Dong Jianhong was upset, but she said, "I understand. I won't have anything to do with her anymore."
"Hmm," Meng Qianjin took two puffs of his cigarette and continued, "What's going on between you and Gu Xiaosi? Your relationship can't be so strained for no reason, right?"
Dong Jianhong had already considered this question. She asked, "Kang Yuanze, do you know?"
Meng Qianjin thought about who Kang Yuanze was, then said, "I know."
"Kang Yuanze likes Gu Siqing," Dong Jianhong said, "Kang Yuanze and I met in the library. After he knew that Gu Siqing and I lived in the same dormitory, he wanted to invite her to dinner.
I didn't know Gu Siqing was dating at the time, so I lied and told her I was treating her to a meal. She got angry when she saw Kang Yuanze. "I really meant well at the time. How could I have known she was dating?"
"Just because of this?" Meng Qianjin felt that Gu Siqing was a little narrow-minded. It was just a meal, nothing big!
"Okay, just stay away from Gu Xiaosi from now on." Meng Qianjin didn't think it was a big deal, so he would just talk to Gu Siqing about it later.
"Aren't you going back to the dormitory today?" Meng Qianjin asked ambiguously. Dong Jianhong didn't say anything, but looked shy. Meng Qianjin laughed, and then drove to a hotel...
The next day after school at noon, Gu Siqing met Meng Qianjin at school.
"Little Fourth Sister, can you please do me a favor and let me treat you to a meal?"
Meng Qianjin had a grin on his face, and Gu Siqing knew it was because of Dong Jianhong. But she couldn't deny him, so she said, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
"You choose." Meng Qianjin said immediately.
Gu Siqing didn't make things difficult for him. She found a nice Chinese restaurant near the school and Meng Qianjin asked for a private room.
"Little Fourth Sister!" Meng Qianjin poured a glass of water for Gu Siqing and said with a smile, "Brother apologizes to you on behalf of Jianhong."
Gu Siqing picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then asked with a smile, "Brother Jin, has your partner told you what caused the conflict between us?"
"I said it." Meng Qianjin wanted to take out a cigarette, but then he remembered someone said that smoking in front of girls is impolite, so he put the half-empty cigarette box back into his pocket and said:
"It's because Kang Yuanze invited you to dinner, right? She didn't mean it. She didn't know you had a partner, so she wanted to match you up with Kang Yuanze."
"Did she tell you that?" Gu Siqing asked.
Meng Qianjin: "Yes!"
Gu Siqing: ""
You two are a perfect match.
"The past is the past," Gu Siqing said, "but Dong Jianhong and I really don't get along. Tell her not to say those nonsense to me anymore. If we don't have a good relationship, it would be better if we just treated each other as strangers."
Thinking that Meng Qianjin and Dong Jianhong were a couple after all, she thought Meng Qianjin would be unhappy about this, so Gu Siqing added, "Brother Jin, I don't want to affect the relationship between our two families."
Meng Qianjin treated Gu Siqing like a child. He thought the conflict between her and Dong Jianhong was just like a child playing house, so he didn't take it seriously. He said, "I know. If we can't play together, then we don't. I'll tell her."
At this time, the waiter came over to serve the dishes. The two ate and chatted. Meng Qianjin said, "Xiao Si, I heard that the movie you and Xia Ying made made a lot of money. If you have such things in the future, take me with you."
"Sure!" Gu Siqing naturally wouldn't turn down money offered to her. She said, "But Sister Ying is in charge of the film and television company. I'll talk to her later."
"Then thank you, brother." Meng Qianjin said.
Gu Siqing waved her hand to indicate that they were all family and there was no need to be polite. The two of them enjoyed the meal very much, and afterward, Meng Qianjin sent Gu Siqing back to school.
As for what would happen to Meng Qianjin and Dong Jianhong in the future, it was none of her business, and she had no say in it. They should just get what they wanted, and maybe they could live happily ever after.
