After the two women slowly sat down in the booth, their eyes met, as if sparks were flying in the air. Then, they both turned their gazes to Wang Hu, their eyes filled with expectation, waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.
Wang Hu cleared his throat and pointed to Guan Xiaomei beside him, introducing her: "Hua'er, this beautiful and charming girl is my girlfriend—Guan Xiaomei." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to Hua Lei on the other side and pointed gently to Guan Xiaomei, saying: "And this equally charming and lovely woman is my other girlfriend, Hua Lei."
Upon hearing this, Hua Lei's feelings instantly became complicated. On one hand, being publicly acknowledged as Wang Hu's girlfriend brought her a sense of joy; but on the other hand, learning that he had another girlfriend stirred up a bit of anger within her.
Without hesitation, she reached out her right hand, grabbed Wang Hu's waist, and with a sudden burst of strength, spun his poor waist 180 degrees. Then, her eyes widened, and she demanded through gritted teeth, "So you! I'm your girlfriend, and she's your girlfriend too! Tell me honestly, how many girlfriends do you have?"
Seeing this, Guan Xiaomei was slightly taken aback at first, but quickly recovered and couldn't help but burst out laughing. Looking at Wang Hu's pained but daring-not-to-resist appearance, she thought to herself: So this guy is so tolerant and forgiving towards his girlfriend, he's not a bad man after all.
At this moment, Hua Lei, beaming with smiles, continued to tease, "Sister Hua, you have no idea, he has a lot of girlfriends. As far as I know, there are at least three or four!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Lei, who was still angry, flew into a rage and roared, "What? So many! I was wondering why you haven't been contacting me lately. Turns out you slept with me and then dumped me to go find your other girlfriends! Humph!" With that, she grabbed Wang Hu's ear and gave him a merciless 360-degree spin.
Wang Hu was wincing in pain, his ear feeling as if it had undergone a 360-degree spin—a pain even a god would find unbearable. He howled as he grabbed the other man's wrist, gripping it tightly with all his might to prevent him from breaking free.
At the same time, he put his mouth close to the other person's ear and explained urgently, "Hua'er, I've been so busy these past two days! I just finished a tough lawsuit with someone. You can ask Xiaomei if you don't believe me!" After saying that, he didn't forget to cast a pleading look at Guan Xiaomei beside him.
However, Guan Xiaomei, who knew nothing about this, simply glanced at Wang Hu and then ignored his expectant gaze.
Just then, Guan Xiaomei suddenly spoke up: "Sister Hua, I really don't know much about this lawsuit. But he must be quite busy lately, after all... he has so many girlfriends to take care of!"
Hearing this, Hua Lei, who was already furious, became even angrier, thinking to herself, "This guy actually has so many girlfriends?" She immediately wanted to reach out and pinch Wang Hu again.
Unfortunately, Wang Hu had already firmly grasped her hands, making it impossible for her to move an inch. Frustrated, Hua Lei could only raise her foot, attempting to kick Wang Hu hard. But to her surprise, Wang Hu reacted extremely quickly, pressing both of her legs firmly to the ground.
Seeing this, Wang Hu quickly continued to explain, "Hua'er, I'm telling you the truth, I'm absolutely not lying to you! When you sent me that WeChat message, I was in court undergoing mediation. I've been so busy these past two days that I haven't been able to reply to you in time."
Before he could finish speaking, Guan Xiaomei suddenly interjected, "Yes, yes, he's busy. He's busy choosing luxury villas for his several girlfriends. He doesn't have time to bother with us unimportant people!"
"Guan Xiaomei! Shut your stinking mouth!" Wang Hu's voice carried a hint of feigned anger. His face was slightly flushed, and the veins on his forehead were faintly visible. He clenched his teeth tightly, seemingly trying hard to control his emotions.
However, deep down, he wasn't truly angry. He knew that if he didn't quiet this talkative woman down, things could become more complicated. But he also understood that he couldn't let her see his true thoughts, otherwise she might become even more unscrupulous.
So he deliberately feigned anger, hoping to intimidate Guan Xiaomei and stop her from talking nonsense. His eyes revealed a hint of determination, as if telling Guan Xiaomei that he was serious and would absolutely not tolerate her ramblings.
Guan Xiaomei was frightened by Wang Hu's fierce gaze. She unconsciously shrank back, a hint of fear in her eyes. Although she knew in her heart that Wang Hu wasn't truly angry, the thought of being alone with him one day and possibly being severely abused by him made her heart tremble.
Fortunately, Guan Xiaomei was somewhat clever. Her eyes darted around, and she quickly ran to the other side of the flower bud, feigning a docile and obedient demeanor, and began helping Wang Hu to cheer the flower bud up. The two women huddled together, chattering away, completely ignoring Wang Hu. No matter how hard Wang Hu tried to join in, he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to speak. Helpless, he could only sit there alone, drinking one glass of wine after another in silence.
After a while, Hua Lei's mood gradually improved. Perhaps it was the effect of the alcohol, or perhaps it was the effect of Guan Xiaomei's sweet words, but in any case, she was no longer as angry as before. She tilted her head slightly, her face flushed, and said coquettishly to Wang Hu, who was drinking alone, "Hmph, you say I'm your girlfriend, but I'm really just a mistress."
"And I also heard from Xiaomei that all your girlfriends started dating you much earlier than I did." After saying that, she winked playfully at Wang Hu.
Hearing this, Wang Hu inwardly groaned, but outwardly he remained calm, forcing a smile as he apologized to Hua Lei. Hua Lei, however, seemed unwilling to let him off easily, and enthusiastically pulled Wang Hu and Guan Xiaomei to continue drinking.
During this time, they ordered drinks twice more. Hua Lei had intended to get Wang Hu completely drunk so he could embarrass himself. However, to her surprise, Wang Hu's alcohol tolerance was surprisingly high. No matter how much she urged him to drink, he remained completely unfazed. On the other hand, Guan Xiaomei was already quite drunk after just a few drinks.
