He pulled out a chair for Meng Qidi, and after she sat down, Ling Xiao sat down beside her.
"What do you want to eat?" Ling Xiao asked gently.
He completely forgot that Xiaoqi had just said he had eaten.
Nie Zheng did not expose the two of them and just sat down opposite them.
"It's all right. I'm not picky."
Ge Mei, who was following beside, was a little afraid to leave. Ever since she was forced to tell Nie Zheng her secret, she has been a little afraid of Nie Zheng. She has been following him these days and is a little afraid to go to school.
"Won't she sit down?" Meng Qidi poured Ling Xiao a cup of tea.
Nie Zheng glanced at him calmly and said, "I like to stand."
Ge Mei lowered her eyes, no matter how unwilling she was she had to stand there.
Ling Xiao handed the menu to the waiter next to him, "Just serve the food quickly."
As soon as the waiter left, Meng Qidi gently pushed the water towards him.
"Have you drunk? I haven't seen you drink water all morning." Ling Xiao picked up the water cup.
Meng Qidi shook her head, "I'm a little afraid to drink tea now. After drinking it, I'm half asleep and half awake at night."
She also discovered recently that her sleep improved after drinking less tea.
Ling Xiao patted her face gently, then stood up and left.
Nie Zheng glanced at the empty cup in front of him and suddenly smiled, "Sister Xiaoqi was fine last time..."
"How old are you?" Meng Qidi interrupted him directly.
Nie Zheng was stunned. "Twenty-three, twenty-four is also fine."
Meng Qidi played with the empty cup in front of her, "Sorry, I'm not even twenty yet, it's past time to call me sister, just call me Meng Qidi directly."
It's not that she was being harsh. The current Nie Zheng was no longer the little fool he used to be. Perhaps it was his instinct after being reborn, but Nie Zheng gave her a sense of danger.
Nie Zheng...
Ling Xiao came over with hot water. The table was strangely quiet. He glanced at the two people opposite him and placed the water in front of Meng Qidi. He sat down and said, "If you can't eat, let's change tables."
Nie Zheng: "I feel like you guys are looking down on me. We are from the same hometown after all. I don't ask you to cry when you meet each other. This is too much."
Ling Xiao looked indifferent, "We are having dinner together, why are you coming over here?"
"Didn't Xiaoqi say that he had eaten? I just felt like a relative when I saw my fellow villagers, so I came here to bond with them."
Meng Qidi didn't respond to him. She knew that since they had come, they couldn't be driven away. She was also curious about the purpose of these two people.
Her eyes fell on Ge Mei who was standing obediently, and Meng Qidi asked, "Last time, classmate Ge fell from such a high place and was bumped by classmate Meng, but he was still safe and sound."
Ling Xiao patted her gently, "We can't compare with them. They are rough. You were scared by the snake and fell asleep for three days."
"I……"
Ge Mei opened her mouth, looked at Nie Zheng, and didn't dare to explain.
The lunch was weird, and the two of them didn't invite Nie Zheng and the others to eat. After the meal, Meng Qidi originally planned to go back to the store.
The two people behind her also followed closely without realizing it. She didn't want to bring them back to the store as it was too disgusting.
Ling Xiao took the two of them to a quiet place in the park, and pulled Meng Qidi behind him. Then he asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Nie Zheng has been following me, obviously he has something going on.
Nie Zheng sat down on the stone bench nonchalantly, "I'm fine, I just saw you guys and wanted to follow you."
He was just curious about the heroine, the child of destiny, that Ge Mei mentioned. Moreover, Meng Qidi married Ling Xiao and had nothing to do with Zhao Youwei.
If the male and female protagonists don’t get together, how can the world function?
Or was Ge Mei deceiving herself from the beginning to the end?
Glancing coldly at Ge Mei, he said, "Are Brother Xiao and Xiao Qi really in love? Otherwise, my ex-fiancé would be so wronged."
Meng Qidi's eyes were slightly cold, and Ling Xiao gently squeezed her hand, "Whether we are in true love or not, it has nothing to do with you, right? Your parents agreed to the marriage exchange, and the matter between Xiaoqi and I is our husband and wife's business, and has nothing to do with you."
He wasn't sure what Nie Zheng meant by this, but he didn't want him to find out that they already knew Ge Mei's secret.
Nie Zheng chuckled, "Brother Xiao, why are you so nervous? I'm not competing with you for your wife. If I call you Brother Xiao, Xiao Qi will naturally be my sister-in-law, right?"
Seeing that the couple didn't speak, he coughed lightly and said, "I'm here to cooperate with you."
Meng Qidi raised her eyebrows, "Cooperation on what?"
"I noticed that Xiaoqi and Meng Yuzhen are not on good terms. Coincidentally, we are also enemies. I want to cooperate with you."
Meng Qidi sneered, "You can't deal with Meng Yuzhen?"
Nie Zheng said: "It can't be solved. These days I found out that Meng Yuzhen is backed by the Qiu family, a big family in Jing City, and it's not something that a nobody like me can mess with."
Ling Xiao looked at him, "So you think that nobody like us can deal with the Qiu family?"
"You can't, but Xiao Qi can." Nie Zheng looked at Meng Qidi, "She has a very good relationship with the elderly. Following her teacher, she can be said to have won the favor of a lot of old men. If she uses her relationship, it will be easy for her to take down Meng Yuzhen, not to mention..."
Nie Zheng paused, "Besides, I only ask you to suppress the Qiu family. I will take care of Meng Yuzhen and make sure you don't get into any trouble."
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, "What good are we doing? You also said that we just don't get along. We are all sisters, so there is no need to harm our own sisters for you, right?"
Sisters? Meng Qidi frowned slightly, and then she remembered that she seemed to have forgotten to tell Ling Xiao that she was not a member of the Meng family...
The two did not respond, but Nie Zheng was not anxious. He said mysteriously, "Well, I can tell you a secret."
Ling Xiao and the other person looked at each other, and then Ling Xiao sneered, "What kind of secret do you think is worth us showing off this favor? What's more, I'm afraid you are wrong. Xiao Qi doesn't have a good relationship with those old men, and they don't have any intersection. Those are all her teacher's interpersonal relationships."
The two of them refused to listen to each other and even ignored Nie Zheng, fearing that Nie Zheng would take out his anger on them when he returned.
Ge Mei was a little annoyed and blurted out, "What if you have a grudge?"
Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at her coldly, "What grudge? You know this now?"
So the woman didn't say anything that day, but I'm afraid she knew a lot more. Although the story took a different direction, I'm afraid she knew all the personal information at the beginning.
Maybe he thought that he would be lame for the rest of his life and he was not the male lead, so he wanted to replace Xiao Qi with himself...
Ge Mei paused, and was a beat slower to realize that she had actually said this without Nie Zheng's consent.
Nie Zheng's eyes were slightly cold, "Tell me about it, I'm curious too."
It looks like someone is not behaving well and is hiding something from him.
Ge Mei's heart trembled, and she couldn't even clench her fists. After a long while, she said, "She...she is not Meng Daqiang's biological daughter, nor is she Zhao Hong's daughter. She was stolen by Zhao Hong..."
