Niu Shanshan: “…” Why didn’t I realize before that Dong Xiaoming, a famously honest and simple man, had such a sharp tongue?
"What are you doing?" Niu Shanshan then realized that the two were not working. She had just looked around and asked five groups of people before finding this place.
"Xiaobai wants to eat melon seeds, so I'll help her peel them. Xiaobai said this is called afternoon tea, so I'm going to bring a teapot tomorrow." Dong Xiaoming smiled innocently and comforted Guan Jibai, "Don't be sad, Xiaobai, you'll have another chance in the future."
The corners of Niu Shanshan's mouth twitched, and she really wanted to ask, can Guan Jibai cast a spell?
"Is the deputy editor-in-chief of the literary and art journal called Hu Meizhen?" Guan Jibai held melon seeds in his palm, frowned slightly, and suddenly he lost the mood for afternoon tea.
"Yes! Her name is Hu Meizhen. She's quite famous."
"It's really her." Guan Jibai handed the melon seeds in his palm to Niu Shanshan.
Niu Shanshan didn't react for a moment and took it stupidly. When she realized what was happening, the melon seeds were already in her palm. Dong Xiaoming was looking at her unhappily, which made her feel uneasy.
If she hadn't joined Guan Jibai, she would have stayed away from Dong Xiaoming. She always felt that Dong Xiaoming and the entire fifth group were dangerous and a little strange.
Guan Jibai clapped his hands, pondered for a moment, and quickly guessed the general idea.
Hu Meizhen was indeed helping Liang Wenjing, but her purpose in supporting her was indeed for her biological mother or herself.
hehe!
It turns out that his methods are superb.
Now she had every reason to suspect that the original owner's previous life as a temporary laborer doing odd jobs was inextricably linked to Hu Meizhen. Thinking of the original owner's gifts and talents, but never being able to display them, marrying a beast like Mei Qiusheng, and being tortured to death, she felt very unwilling!
We can't be so passive anymore.
"Xiaobai? What's wrong with you?" Dong Xiaoming's intuition was unexpectedly sharp.
"Brother Xiaoming, I feel like I'm going to be bullied. You must protect me." Guan Jibai took Dong Xiaoming's muscular arm and acted coquettishly.
Dong Xiaoming nodded obediently, "Haha! You are my sister, of course I will protect you."
Niu Shanshan felt like she was going blind and really wanted to turn around and leave, drawing a clear line between herself and the two of them.
"Xiaobai, you just said that someone was going to bully you. Who was it? Was it the Hu Meizhen you just mentioned?" Although Dong Xiaoming looks honest and simple, he is actually very careful. Even Guan Jibai was surprised to hear it.
Niu Shanshan also looked at her.
"Let me tell you, although I don't know Hu Meizhen, my mother does." Guan Jibai planned to take the initiative and not wait for Hu Meizhen and Liang Wenjing to unite and build momentum. He had to guide public opinion before counterattacking.
That's too passive, and it seems like you don't have enough brains.
"Strictly speaking, Hu Meizhen is my aunt!" Guan Jibai's words shocked Niu Shanshan and Dong Xiaoming.
Guan Jibai is not the kind of person who would keep a loss to herself. She reveals the relationship between Hu Meizhen and Guan Wanwan, especially the true identity of Hu Meizhen's husband Guan Zhenrong. The adopted son is a distant nephew, not Guan Jinqing's biological son.
Few people knew this secret, and Hu Meizhen had kept it a secret for a long time. She was most afraid of people finding out that she and her husband were not the biological son and daughter-in-law of the famous historian.
For a long time, Guan Wanwan's quality and upbringing, as well as her stubbornness to save her father and mother's reputation, meant that she never told anyone about it and even helped to conceal it.
It is precisely because of this that Hu Meizhen feels so confident.
But Guan Jibai is not a pushover, she doesn't have so many concerns.
