"Yeah, it is."
Several people thought it made sense and didn't even bother to gossip about the look Pei Sui had just given her.
Fang Zhiqing suddenly leaned close to her and asked in a low voice, "Sister Shengsheng, I heard that Gu Ci farted outside your room this morning and started arguing with you. What happened?"
Meng Sheng raised his eyebrows.
Um?
It seems that the news that she and Pei Sui were in the same room last night spread even faster than the news that Gu Ci farted.
Tsk.
Come to think of it, the gimmick of Gu Ci farting and pooping his pants was so loud.
Spread it, spread it, let Gu Ci and Gu Yuan, father and daughter, compete to see whose name is more famous.
Anyway, it’s not her family that is losing face.
Meng Sheng only concealed the part about Gu Ci giving her the drug, and only said that Gu Ci blamed her for giving her the laxative.
She spoke calmly and with a nonchalant expression, "I don't know why she would think that. I didn't even see her last night. There were so many people at the bar, I just sat with Sister Zhiman for over an hour before going back."
Fang Zhiyao frowned, looking unhappy. "Why is she like this? Sister Shengsheng, could it be that Gu Ci has a grudge against you?"
have!
There is a big grudge!
Gu Ci wanted to kill her.
Meng Sheng finished his inner complaints, thought deeply for a while, and shook his head. "She and my art museum are still cooperating, what grudge could there be? I can't say who deliberately drugged Gu Ci and then framed me to destroy our relationship.
I think... it's very likely this is the case, otherwise I can't think of it... After all, she and I have no grudges against each other."
She can also pretend to be innocent.
"Ah? Then she's really stupid enough to fall for it."
“It’s not smart.”
"If I were here this morning, I would have helped you kill her. Wouldn't that make her look so shameless?"
The three sisters of the Fang family immediately started discussing this topic. Meng Sheng didn't say much, just listened to them. After a while, the topic faded and changed to something else that interested them.
Talking too much about Gu Ci will affect my appetite for lunch.
The process of the thank-you banquet at noon was very simple. The two families went up to talk separately, the host livened up the atmosphere, and then the banquet began.
After lunch, everyone started exchanging pleasantries again and then left the hotel one after another.
Meng Sheng also greeted Fang Zhiman's parents and her, then walked towards the parking lot. On the way, he took out his cell phone and sent a message to Pei Sui.
I went to the parking lot.
About half a minute later, Pei Sui replied: [Yes, I'll be right there.]
As soon as she walked to her car, she saw Fu Chen unlocking his car while talking on the phone not far away.
Inadvertently, Fu Chen looked up and his eyes met Meng Sheng's in mid-air.
Both of them were stunned, but Meng Sheng still smiled slightly and nodded to greet him.
Fu Chen's grip on the phone suddenly tightened, and he subconsciously wanted to rush to her and ask about her and Pei Sui, but he knew he had no right to ask.
But...even so, it would be good to be able to say a few words.
But he can't do that now. He has to rush back to the hospital. In four hours, a critically ill patient will be transferred from a neighboring city to Deqing. Once the patient arrives, surgery will be required immediately. He has to rush back to customize the surgical plan and details.
Now I am communicating about the patient’s condition with the attending physician in the neighboring city on the phone.
He didn't move, but nodded in response, then continued talking to the doctor on the other end of the phone. He bent down, got into the car, fastened his seat belt, started the car, turned the steering wheel with one hand, and sped away.
It was obvious that he had something urgent to do, but Meng Sheng didn't take it too seriously. She threw the gifts and her clothes into the back seat, then opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat to wait for Pei Sui.
The afternoon sun in June is still quite scorching. Not only does it make your eyes dazzled, but it also makes the heat unbearable.
After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, she saw Pei Sui walking towards her quickly.
Pei Sui recognized her car at a glance. All the windows of her car were one-way, so you couldn't see inside from the outside, but he could see that the car's engine was started.
He walked to the driver's seat and knocked on the window.
The car window was lowered, and a small, delicate face with rich complexion was reflected in Pei Sui's eyes, which originally had no color. In an instant, a spring scene was awakened.
He was stunned for a moment, then explained, "I met someone on the road and chatted with him for a while. I've been waiting for a long time."
"It's okay. It won't get exposed to the sun in the car."
Meng Sheng said, "I'm going to the hospital to see my dad later. I won't be back until around 8 or 9 in the evening."
"good."
Pei Sui saw that her expression was natural, her eyes were clear, and there was a hint of smile in them, but something inexplicably pulled at his heart.
He knew that even if they reconciled, the fact that his mother almost killed her father would still stand between them and would not disappear.
She may have already taken a step forward in her heart, but she can't help but struggle and be entangled.
Especially her father's.
If her father cannot let go and forgive, there is a great risk that she and him will break up again.
Therefore, the current situation between them is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause.
But it is not easy to erase this kind of damage from the mind to the body.
And she will suffer much more than him.
He suddenly reached out and touched her cheek. His eyelids drooped, and his long, narrow eyelashes hid the guilt surging in his eyes.
After just a few seconds of touching, Meng Sheng slapped her hand away. She glared at him and said angrily, "You're ruining my makeup."
Pei Sui raised his eyes upon hearing this, looked at her eyebrows and expression which had become lively and pretty because of her anger, and laughed softly.
Suddenly, he bent down, leaned his head in slightly, and placed his thin lips precisely on her soft pink lips.
Meng Sheng was stunned, and before he could react, he had already stepped back. His clear and calm voice dissipated the heat and dryness brought by the wind.
"See you tonight. I'll wait for you."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards his car.
Meng Sheng looked at her leisurely figure from behind and smiled after a while. His expression became gentle as well. He rolled up the car window, started the car and drove out of the parking space.
When I came here yesterday, the black Bentley was always falling behind the white Porsche at a distance, and the same thing happened when I went back today.
Only after entering the southern part of the city did the two cars part ways at a fork in the road.
Meng Sheng ordered a takeaway of fish soup with matsutake mushrooms and scallops at a restaurant on the road. After arriving at the hospital, she bought some fruits nearby that Meng Chengli could eat now.
After the car stopped, she took the wedding candy that Fang Zhiman had specially prepared for her father and carried it upstairs.
