Chapter 81: Peeling Brother
Fan Shengmei happily walked into the coffee shop with cakes and gifts. Suddenly, she saw a familiar face in the corner of the entrance.
Fu Wenying.
She was about to go up and say hello when she saw that her face was serious. Her good upbringing and elegant manners could not hide the hidden anger in her eyes.
There was a man with a crew cut sitting opposite him.
The conversation between the two was obviously unpleasant, and the back of the person sitting opposite looked very familiar.
It seems like...Song Yan?
Fan Shengmei put the things on the counter and walked towards the two of them.
As soon as I got closer, I heard the man's special voice wrapped in oil. It was indeed Song Yan.
He stared at Fu Wenying intently.
"I'm telling you, if we really fight head-on, it won't be a problem for me to peel off a layer of your skin."
When Fan Shengmei heard this, she was surprised. What kind of gangster talk is this?
And she was doing this to her favorite life mentor. How could she tolerate this?
She angrily picked up a hardcover book from the nearby bookshelf and hit Song Yan on the back of the head.
"Who are you talking to? Captain Song, you're here to protect the people, not to expose their skin. What kind of gangsters are you talking about? You're the one who's trying to expose their skin at every turn. Are you here to expose their skin?"
Song Yan turned around abruptly, frowning his semi-permanent chuan-shaped eyebrows, and looked at her appearance with some surprise.
"Fan Shengmei?"
"What are you staring at?"
Fan Shengmei slammed the book on the table. "You were wrong in the first place! No matter what the reason, respect the elderly and love the young, don't you understand? Apologize now!"
Song Yan's jawline was extremely tense.
"You're meddling too much!"
"I'm in charge of you. You're my savior, and I can't let my savior go astray."
Fan Shengmei showed her phone and said, "I just recorded this. If you don't apologize, I'll report you to your workplace!"
Song Yan's face was gloomy, but seeing that the customers around him were all looking around, he had to take a deep breath and said to Wen Ying,
"Feel sorry."
Then he added with a gloomy face, "But please remember what I said. This is a matter between me and her. It's not your turn to lecture me."
After saying that, he pushed the chair away and left, causing the wind chimes at the door to ring loudly.
Fu Wenying's hand holding the water cup was shaking violently, causing ripples in the water in the cup.
It was the first time that Fan Shengmei saw Aunt Fu, who was always calm and elegant, lose her composure like this.
She quickly changed the water to warm water and asked, "Aunt Fu, are you okay?"
Xu Qin locked herself in the bedroom after returning from the manor last night and refused to open the door, which made Fu Wenying and Meng Huaijin very anxious.
After finally finding the key and opening the door, Xu Qin threw herself into Fu Wenying's arms and started crying, refusing to say anything.
Fu Wenying naturally felt that Song Yan had bullied her daughter, so she asked him to come out early in the morning.
She asked what was going on between the two of them, why they were engaged but had been dragging their feet on getting married, and accused Song Yan of being irresponsible. Not only had he led a good daughter astray, but he was still dragging her along.
Unexpectedly, the other party retorted, "Please understand clearly, it was your daughter who seduced me in the beginning. After returning to China, she has been pestering me. She even came to my house when she was drunk and acted crazy. She lay on my window and refused to leave. She insisted on being with me. It was your son who pulled her away at that time. You can ask your son about this..."
These unbearable words stabbed her heart like a knife.
The precious jewel she had carefully nurtured was now described by others as a crazy woman who threw herself at someone else, and Fu Wenying felt a knot in her stomach.
"Aunt Fu?"
Fan Shengmei's worried voice brought her back to reality, "You look very bad, you and Song Yan..."
Fu Wenying's pride and self-esteem made her unable to speak. She had just been scolded by her future son-in-law, whom she despised the most.
She held back her tears, maintaining her dignity.
"Nothing, just talking about our company's fire drill."
She used the most clumsy lies to fool Fan Shengmei, knowing that even if she didn't believe it, she wouldn't ask any further questions.
"Aunt Fu, I went to cut a piece of cake for you. I just brought it back. It smells so good. Eating something sweet at this time will make you feel better."
Fan Shengmei got up and went to the counter to get the cake.
"Sister Fan, who is that auntie?"
The little earthworm inquired curiously, "It looks like he's very rich."
Fan Shengmei said as she cut the cake,
"Wealth is not the most important thing, wisdom is also important. You, Sister Fan, are my life mentor."
Qiu Yingying's eyes widened in shock. "Sister Fan, you said she's a very capable person, so she must be very capable. Why don't you ask her to give me some pointers?"
Fan Shengmei chuckled, "You don't need her advice, I can give you advice. Your most urgent task now is to quickly forget Ying Qin and find someone to fall in love with again. That's better than anything else."
When Qiu Yingying heard this, she pouted and became unhappy, and the glass in her hand made a hissing sound as she wiped it.
"You know how to stab people in the heart."
Fan Shengmei, "I'm treating pain with pain, so you can say goodbye to that scumbag sooner and embrace a new life."
"Do you think everyone is as lucky as you to meet President Meng?"
Qiu Yingying pouted and muttered, "God, please open your eyes and don't give me a big CEO. A rich second-generation will do. Anyway, as long as they are better than Ying Qin, anyone will do."
Fan Shengmei burst out laughing, rubbed her head and said,
"Don't worry, there will be bread and milk, and people who love you will always come."
She suddenly remembered something, "By the way, who did Guan Guan deliver something to? Remember to bring some of this cake back to her."
Qiu Yingying was not interested, "Oh——"
—
Guan Juer was standing in a dim corner of the bar, holding Xie Tong's wallet.
On the stage, Xie Tong was holding a guitar and singing affectionately under the spotlight:
I want to fly in the free sky,
Only music can bring me relief,
I've tried giving it a try,
But reality just swallowed me up...
His voice was hoarse and penetrating, and every word he spoke hit Guan Juer's heart like a hammer.
She had never felt such a strong spiritual shock - these lyrics seemed to be written for her.
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been a good girl in the eyes of her parents. She studied and worked step by step and never deviated from the established track.
But at this moment, the long-suppressed desire deep in her heart suddenly surged out - she wanted freedom, wanted a different life, and wanted to see this colorful world.
The unprecedented experience and wonderful throbbing made her move closer to Xie Tong's stage step by step, but Xie Tong went straight to the backstage.
Guan Juer wanted to go forward to return the wallet, but was squeezed hard by the enthusiastic crowd.
Someone spilled the wine on her. She happened to be wearing a white dress today, and the red wine stains were too glaring, making her look very embarrassed.
She hurried to the bathroom and wiped it hard in front of the mirror, but the red wine had already seeped into the fabric and no matter how she wiped it was of no use.
Guan Juer didn't want her first formal meeting with Xie Tong to be so embarrassing, so she had to give up the idea of returning the wallet today.
At this moment, I just want to stick to the wall and hide in the crowd to leave here quickly.
"Guan Juer?"
A male voice came from behind.
Guan Juer turned around and saw a familiar face that she could not remember.
Seeing her bewildered look, the other party added,
"That fat orange stray cat."
Guan Juer suddenly realized, "Oh, you are the firefighter, Jiang...Jiang..."
"Jiang Yu!"
Jiang Yu took the initiative to add, "I came here with a colleague to conduct a fire inspection. I went home directly after the inspection. What about you? Are you here alone?"
"No, I'm here to return something..."
Guan Juer hesitated and leaned against the wall unconsciously.
Jiang Yu keenly noticed something unusual, "Are you in trouble? Do you need help?"
Guan Juer lowered her head, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Jiang Yu followed her gaze and immediately understood the situation.
"Wait a moment."
He returned with an unopened gift box from his backpack, "This is new. I originally bought it for my mom."
He handed over a beige cashmere shawl and said, "You can make do with it for now."
Guan Juer adjusted her glasses and looked at him apologetically.
"Will it be too much trouble?"
"Won't,"
Jiang Yu said, "Things are bought to be used by people. If you need them urgently, you can use them first. I will buy another one for my mother later."
Guan Juer took the shawl and whispered, "Thank you. I...I will buy you one tomorrow and send it to your workplace."
"OK,"
Jiang Yu agreed readily, knowing that if he didn't, the two of them would have to stand there and argue for a long time.
He held up the shawl. "Shall I put it on you or do it yourself?"
"I can do it myself!"
Guan Juer quickly took it, her voice getting smaller and smaller, "Thank you, I will buy you a new one tomorrow."
The newly bought shawl turned into a long skirt on Guan Juer, and Jiang Yu looked at it with satisfaction.
"No, I'm taking a day off tomorrow. Let's talk about it another day."
"The day after tomorrow? The day after tomorrow is also fine..."
Jiang Yu didn't respond. He looked at his watch and said, "It's almost time. My colleagues are still waiting for me. You should be careful when you are alone in a place like this. I'm leaving now."
At this moment, Xie Tong's voice sounded again on the stage, and Guan Juer couldn't help but be deeply attracted to him...
