Chapter 46 It’s too miserable
I don’t know if it was because Ren Mengyi’s behavior was too strange, Qi Nian and Lu Ze didn’t leave immediately.
Ren Mengyi added a lot of nutritional supplements to the shopping cart, then placed the order without blinking, and looked up at Sun Jing who was sitting next to her: "Go home if you have nothing else."
Sun Jing pursed her lips in fear, not daring to refute. She stood up silently and followed Ren Mengyi.
Ren Mengyi was quite satisfied to see that she was fairly obedient. She was just about to rush back to supervise Sun Jing on her homework, but when she turned around, she finally saw Qi Nian.
Of course she did not forget Qi Nian. Not only that, she was left with a very deep impression. After all, Qi Nian made her so embarrassed. She had never been humiliated like this in her entire life.
Therefore, no matter how good-looking Qi Nian was, Ren Mengyi didn't like him. Seeing that Qi Nian's nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes, she asked: "Why are you here?"
Lu Ze was not used to her big lady temper. He glanced at Sun Jing behind Ren Mengyi and said, "We sent your friend here. What's your attitude?"
Ren Mengyi turned her head and glanced at Sun Jing, who nodded. She instantly felt even more unhappy and curled her lips: "Do I need you?"
It was obvious that she couldn't reason with anyone, and Qi Nian and Lu Ze were too lazy to say more to her.
Who would have known that Ren Mengyi, who was about to leave, might have been so angry that she came back, took out her cell phone, and showed the photos on the screen to Qi Nian. All he saw were rows of zoomed-in photos of Ren Mengyi with different people.
Ren Mengyi only let Qi Nian take a look at her before taking her phone back. She felt that she had turned the tables and snorted, "See? There are so many handsome guys who like me. I don't need one like you!"
Qi Nian didn't know what to say, and after a long pause, he finally said, "Then... congratulations?"
He swore that he didn't mean any mockery, but Ren Mengyi didn't think so. She was so angry that she stomped her feet and walked away.
Ren Mengyi was angry because she saw Qi Nian's face. She just said that there were many handsome guys she liked, but to be honest, there was really no one who was prettier than Qi Nian. Didn't you see that she didn't dare to click on the picture to enlarge it for Qi Nian to see? She just felt a little guilty.
So it would be strange if she wasn't angry after hearing Qi Nian say that.
He had no place to vent his anger, so he took it out on Sun Jing, mumbling and accusing her: "You are so useless. I don't know how you got into Peking University. You only studied for a few days and you still fainted! What a coincidence that you ran into that annoying guy. I am so pissed off."
Sun Jing lowered her head and did not answer these words. She knew that if she replied, Ren Mengyi would have tens or hundreds of words waiting for her, and in the end she would threaten her and make her parents lose their jobs. After so long, she no longer knew how to resist.
After Ren Mengyi had said enough, Sun Jing whispered, "I'm going to the cafeteria to eat."
"Is it edible to eat the garbage in the cafeteria?" Ren Mengyi frowned, "No wonder the school doctor said you were malnourished. Are you thinking about embarrassing me when you fail the exam?"
Sun Jing quickly shook her head: "No, no."
Ren Mengyi glanced at her phone and said, "I ordered a nutritious meal for you. Eat well, did you hear me?"
Ren Mengyi: "After dinner, do two more sets of questions, and the accuracy rate must be above 95%."
Sun Jing had just felt a little better because she could eat well, but when she heard this, she almost cried again.
She thought of what the school doctor had just said and wanted to protest: "I...the school doctor said I need to rest more."
"Rest for nothing! Don't you know what you've learned?" You can get some nutrition from Ren Mengyi, but forget about resting: "You're useless. I took you out before so that you could get to know more people who have learned well, but what happened? You don't know any of them, and you have to rely on me to help you make connections. It's so troublesome!"
Ren Mengyi complained for a while, and only felt better when she saw that Sun Jing didn't say she wanted to rest.
After eating the nutritious meal, Sun Jing was still forced to do homework. Ren Mengyi stared at her with a fierce look. The mental pressure was so great that Sun Jing even dreamed of herself doing the homework. She felt like she was going crazy.
Fortunately, Ren Mengyi is going home this weekend. Even though the other party will monitor her remotely, at least she can take a break.
——
weekend
Ren Mengyi rang the doorbell at home. After a while, the nanny came to open the door. She didn't even look at the nanny and sat on the sofa: "Where's my mother?"
As soon as she asked, a beautiful woman came out of the room. Ren Mengyi immediately ran over happily and hugged her: "Mom, I miss you so much~"
The woman had a face similar to Ren Mengyi's. She was clearly in her forties, but she looked like she was only in her thirties. Her skin was smooth and beautiful, with a charming charm.
The woman smiled and patted Ren Mengyi on the back, saying a few words of concern. Then her eyes fell on the necklace on Ren Mengyi's chest and frowned: "Where did you get this necklace? I remember you didn't have it before."
Ren Mengyi felt guilty and didn't dare to look at her mother. She looked around and said, "Mom, I'm hungry. Is there anything delicious?"
But Ren's mother kept asking, "Did that woman give you this? Are you asking for her things again? I've told you so many times not to ask for her things!"
Ren Mengyi came out of her mother's arms and said coquettishly, "Mom, I want her things only because this necklace is pretty. I don't like her. You are my only mother."
Mother Ren's expression softened a little after hearing this, but she still said in a hard tone: "It's good that you know. Mom has been living this way for so many years... You are my daughter, you must stand by me, do you hear me?"
Ren Mengyi nodded quickly. She had been hearing these words since she was a child. When she was little, she felt a little suffocated, as if a huge mountain was pressing on her and she couldn't breathe. Now, as she gets older, she has slowly gotten used to it.
Perhaps her mother's thoughts had successfully influenced her, and she gradually accepted her mother's point of view.
"I know." Ren Mengyi held the necklace in her hand and said, "I really just think this necklace is beautiful and valuable. Mom, you don't know how expensive it is. It costs a lot of money."
Mother Ren's face turned unhappy, and she said angrily: "She didn't spend her own money. This money should...be yours!"
Ren Mengyi quickly coaxed her mother again, and only when she answered the phone did she breathe a sigh of relief and return to her room exhausted.
Ren's mother, Ren Mengyi and Gong Yin's family live in the same building, and the two families are almost the same distance upstairs and downstairs.
Ren Mengyi rested for a while, then went upstairs to look for Gong Yin. The door was opened, and when she saw the man on the sofa, her eyes lit up immediately: "Fuck Dad! Are you back from your business trip?"
Wu Chaoying was wearing glasses and looking down at the newspaper. When he heard the voice, he looked up and saw Ren Mengyi trotting over happily. He immediately smiled and said, "Mengyi is here?"
Gong Yin smiled and said, "Meng Yi, now that she sees your godfather, she doesn't care about your godmother anymore?"
Ren Mengyi quickly acted coquettishly and said that she hadn't seen her godfather for a long time, so she was very excited, and she didn't ignore her godmother.
Ren Mengyi was very sweet-talking and she made both of them happy in no time.
After talking for a while, Wu Chaoying received a phone call and said he was going out. Gong Yin didn't ask much, but reminded him that the temperature was low at night recently and he should remember to wear a coat.
Wu Chaoying agreed with a smile, then returned to the room, got a coat and put it on before leaving.
"I don't know what your godfather is busy with every day." Gong Yin complained to Ren Mengyi.
Ren Mengyi smiled and said coquettishly: "Oh, my godfather must be busy at work. He is very tired. Work always requires socializing."
Gong Yin didn't think much about it, she still trusted Wu Chaoying more.
Ren Mengyi talked here for a while and then said she was going home.
After she left, Gong Yin's little daughter came out of the room, frowned and said, "Mom, don't you think Ren Mengyi is weird? I don't understand why you and Dad like her so much."
"That's your sister, don't talk nonsense." Gong Yin said of her own daughter: "Don't you know why we like her? Look at how well-behaved Meng Yi is, how she can act coquettishly, and how good she is at studying. Who wouldn't like her?"
The little daughter pouted and looked unhappy.
Gong Yin still loved her daughter more, so she softened her voice and said, "You, stop being so stubborn with us. You are your father and I's biological daughter, how can we not love you?"
The little girl grumbled unconvincedly: "I feel like my dad likes Ren Mengyi more."
Gong Yin didn't believe it: "You just worry too much every day. Study hard. The college entrance examination is coming soon, don't think about these things."
The little daughter agreed reluctantly and turned back to her room.
——
Recently, the school announced that several professors who came to exchange and learn would give lectures at the school. Qi Nian looked at the lecture time and venue arrangements sent to him and found that according to their class schedule, he could still attend a few lectures.
Qi Nian picked out a few people who were interested and had time, and asked Lu Ze if he wanted to go with them.
"Of course." Lu Ze said.
Qi Nian was surprised: "You are so busy, why do you still want to go to the lecture?" He thought that Lu Ze would choose not to go if he didn't have time. After all, this was not a mandatory requirement.
But he obviously underestimated Lu Ze, who said, "Such a good opportunity, why not go? You have to go even if you have to squeeze in time."
After hearing this, Qi Nian admired Lu Ze even more. He went there because he had nothing to do, but Lu Ze was different. He was so busy.
He just heard a few classmates discussing whether to go or not. One of them said, "I won't understand if I go. I might as well go back to the dormitory and lie down."
This statement received unanimous approval.
Qi Nian thought of this, shook his head, and checked off the lectures he was going to attend and showed them to Lu Ze: "I'm going to attend these, what about you? Which ones do you want to attend? Let me see if there are any overlaps between us."
There were indeed a few overlaps between the two people, one of whom was a professor named "Gong Yin". The content of the other person's lecture seemed quite interesting, so they both decided to go and see it.
Unexpectedly, Professor Gong Yin was quite popular. Qi Nian and Lu Ze even went there quite a while in advance. However, when they arrived, they found that there were already quite a few people there, and there were only a few empty seats.
Qi Nian and Lu Ze finally found two adjacent seats. When they turned around, they were surprised to find that Ren Mengyi was also there.
Ren Mengyi was sitting next to them, also with a look of astonishment, wishing she could change seats immediately. But when she stood up and looked, all the empty seats were occupied, and if she left she could only stand at the back. Ren Mengyi had no choice but to sit back down with an unhappy look on her face.
Qi Nian ignored the other party. It was obvious that there were no seats left. They would definitely not give up the seats they had managed to get with great difficulty.
If Ren Mengyi is unhappy, let her be unhappy.
However, Qi Nian found that Ren Mengyi seemed reluctant to come to the lecture. Peking University did not force her to come. After all, the learning atmosphere of the school was strong. Even if there was no compulsion, this large classroom would be full.
So Qi Nian didn't quite understand why Ren Mengyi came here even though she didn't want to.
But he didn't care about that.
After a while, Professor Gong Yin came in. She was wearing glasses and was a very elegant middle-aged woman. After coming in, she briefly introduced herself.
Qi Nian discovered something interesting. After Professor Gong Yin came in, Ren Mengyi sat up straight. The impatience on her face disappeared completely. Instead, she looked at Professor Gong Yin with excitement.
When Professor Gong Yin saw Ren Mengyi here, he also smiled slightly.
Professor Gong Yin quickly got to the point. Qi Nian had no time to think about anything else and immediately took precautions.
I have to say that what Professor Gong Yin said was really vivid and interesting, and I was immersed in it without realizing it.
Qi Nian didn't even have the chance to be distracted and listened until the break. Professor Gong Yin allowed everyone to discuss freely and she would ask everyone a few questions later.
Soon, Professor Gong Yin signaled for silence, then asked a few questions and asked people to stand up and answer.
These were all open-ended questions that required reasonable answers. The previous speakers all gave good answers, and Professor Gong Yin had a constant smile on her face. She even said that it was worthy of being called Kyoto University, and that it was the school with the strongest academic atmosphere she had ever seen.
After she finished speaking, everyone became more eager to answer the questions. Qi Nian looked at those who were eager to speak and was almost envious. He could also give the answer, but he was so nervous that he didn't even dare to raise his hand.
At this moment, Professor Gong Yin called on Ren Mengyi to answer. Ren Mengyi pretended to be listening seriously, but she didn't expect Professor Gong Yin to call her, and stood up in confusion.
Professor Gong Yin smiled and repeated the question, waiting for Ren Mengyi's answer.
Qi Nian looked at Ren Mengyi with envy. Although the other party did not raise her hand, Professor Gong Yin actually took the initiative to point her up and answer.
If Professor Gong Yin called him to stand up, he would be nervous and at a loss, but he would still be able to muster up the courage to answer.
However, Ren Mengyi, whom he envied, remained silent for a long time and did not answer. Ren Mengyi was just pretending. How could she have thought that Gong Yin would call her to get up? She did not raise her hand.
Gong Yin was a little surprised to see that she didn't speak for a long time. The question she asked was not that difficult. She never expected that Ren Mengyi couldn't say a word.
It could only be attributed to the fact that Ren Mengyi was only a freshman and her major was completely unrelated. Gong Yin did not embarrass her and asked the person next to her to answer.
Yes, it is exactly the same idea.
Qi Nian's face turned red with nervousness, but she still answered the question and was praised by Professor Gong Yin.
He sat down dazed, but Ren Mengyi looked particularly bad. She was afraid that Gong Yin might notice something, so she could only try hard to smile.
After finally waiting for the lecture to end, Ren Mengyi left immediately without even bothering to put on her makeup.
She is such a proud person, and she just embarrassed herself in front of so many people. You can imagine that it was almost like killing her.
So she is in a particularly bad mood now, and feels that what her mother said is right.
She was already in a bad mood, and when she turned around, she saw Sun Jing coming out of another large classroom where a lecture was being given, and Ren Mengyi immediately exploded.
I walked over immediately and started to vent my anger: "Who told you to listen to those things? I told you to do the test in the dormitory, why are you running here?"
Sun Jing originally wanted to listen secretly and then run back so that Ren Mengyi would not be able to find out. However, she did not expect that her luck was so bad that she happened to run into her.
Moreover, Ren Mengyi looked like she was about to kill someone, not even paying attention to the people around her. She was startled and said quickly, "I just came here to listen for a while, and will go back to study soon. It won't take me much time."
"Won't it waste time?" Ren Mengyi almost laughed: "A lecture lasts for several hours, how many papers can you finish? You told me that it didn't waste much time, do you think I'm easy to fool? You are a liar!"
Sun Jing lowered her head and dared not speak.
"You are not allowed to sleep today. Make up for this time!" Ren Mengyi said directly.
Sun Jing was about to cry. She had a short sleep span to begin with, and if she was really asked to make up for it, she would have to stay up all night.
Sun Jing subconsciously wanted Ren Mengyi to take back what she said, but Ren Mengyi was already in a bad mood, and when she saw Sun Jing refutate her, she exploded.
"What are you doing?" Qi Nian happened to pass by and saw this scene, and asked subconsciously.
Ren Mengyi was startled. She was in such a bad mood just now that she completely forgot that she was outside. She glanced at Qi Nian and said, "It has nothing to do with you."
After that, he said to Sun Jing who was wiping her tears: "Let's go."
Qi Nian frowned as he looked at Sun Jing who was crying non-stop. Before he could say anything, Lu Ze beside him said first, "Wait a minute."
He pointed at Sun Jing and said, "Let her speak."
Qi Nian nodded and looked at Sun Jing.
However, Sun Jing just shook her head and said, "We just have a little conflict, it's nothing."
Ren Mengyi was obviously not afraid of Sun Jing telling others about it. She smiled and crossed her arms when she heard it. "Did you hear that? You guys are meddling in our little conflicts. Aren't you meddling in other people's business too much?"
Sun Jing's face was very pale, with dark circles under her eyes, and she looked not in a good mental state. Qi Nian thought of the time when they met her by the lake before, and he couldn't pretend he didn't know.
Qi Nian touched the mask on his face and felt a little safer. He said to the two people who were about to leave: "If you don't tell me now, there will be no one to help you in the future."
Lu Ze turned his head to look at Qi Nian and smiled, and he knew.
Sun Jing stopped and looked at Qi Nian. He only showed a pair of eyes, but those eyes were exceptionally bright, like clean lake water, making people unable to help but feel good about him.
Sun Jing suddenly felt hesitant. Should she tell...
Ren Mengyi frowned and whispered, "Do you think he can help you?"
When Sun Jing heard this, the light in her eyes dimmed and she lowered her head again.
Ren Mengyi smiled and turned to look at Qi Nian. This man had been causing trouble for her again and again, and she was really fed up with it.
She thought she should teach him a lesson, and Ren Mengyi suddenly raised her voice and asked, "Can you please stop pestering me?"
Originally, the few people looked like they were in a standoff. The students passing by were full of curiosity, but because they were far away and couldn't hear what they were saying, they had to suppress their curiosity.
At this moment, Ren Mengyi suddenly raised her voice, and immediately a classmate pretending to be passers-by came over to see what was going on.
Before Qi Nian could react, Ren Mengyi was already crying and saying that Qi Nian was pestering her.
Qi Nian was stunned and thought that Ren Mengyi’s acting was very good.
Lu Ze almost laughed out of anger. He pulled down Qi Nian's mask and then pulled it up again: "Are you sure he needs to pester you?"
What they mean is, you are not as pretty as them, so how can they use you?
As soon as Ren Mengyi stopped crying, she almost rolled her eyes in anger.
But as luck would have it, among the people who gathered around was Ren Mengyi's backup. In the other person's eyes, Ren Mengyi was the most beautiful.
The other party immediately began to criticize Qi Nian, saying, "We must find their counselor for this matter. How could we have such a student in our Beijing University!"
Qi Nian was speechless: "I didn't..."
He was interrupted before he could even start talking, without even a chance to explain.
Lu Ze looked at Sun Jing and said, "Don't you want to explain? He did it for you."
Sun Jing tightened her hands at her side. Seeing these people clamoring to make a big deal out of this, Sun Jing thought of the time when Qi Nian saved her by the lake and the time when she fainted. And this time...
She couldn't let down the people who wanted to help her!
"Come on, I have to teach you a lesson today..."
"He didn't harass Ren Mengyi!" Sun Jing closed her eyes and said loudly.
No one present expected that she would speak up to prove it to Qi Nian. They were stunned for a moment and looked at Ren Mengyi.
Ren Mengyi's face turned pale, and her tone was slightly threatening: "Sun Jing, we are best friends, and you are helping others to talk nonsense."
"I'm not talking nonsense." With the first sentence, Sun Jing seemed to finally have the courage. She looked directly at Ren Mengyi for the first time: "You don't treat me as a friend. You force me to study every day, only let me sleep for four hours, and stare at me all the time, just to make me take the exam for you."
"Are you kidding me?" Ren Mengyi tried to refute: "Do you think the proctor is stupid? Can the exam be replaced?"
"You said you could find a way to buy a teacher to pass the exam." Sun Jing said, "You said your father is a big boss, Wu Chaoying, and if I don't listen to you, it will affect my family, so I have to listen to you."
When the students who were watching heard this, they were immediately shocked. Who was allowed only four hours a day, and had to take the exam for her? She could even buy off the proctor and threaten others...
No matter which one of these is taken out, it's explosive.
Ren Mengyi didn't expect Sun Jing to dare to say it out loud, and she panicked the moment she did it. She refused to admit that she had done these things, saying that Sun Jing had framed her for Qi Nian, and that it was because Sun Jing liked Qi Nian and so on...
There was such a large crowd here that it quickly attracted the attention of the leader, who came to evacuate the students and see what was going on.
A student who was quick-witted and good at summarizing spoke up immediately.
"Mengyi?" A familiar voice came, and Ren Mengyi noticed that Gong Yin also came with her.
She was afraid that Gong Yin would know this, so she quickly said, "Fuck, this is all fake, she is wronging me!"
"Eh? Professor Gong, I remember your husband is Mr. Wu? How come..." one of Professor Gong's colleagues asked in confusion.
"So that boss of Wu Chaoying is actually her godfather? Tsk tsk, she still says he is her father. How can a godfather be the same as her biological father?" a classmate murmured.
Gong Yin glanced at Ren Mengyi who was crying and found that she seemed to be meeting this godsdaughter for the first time. However, she could not wrongly accuse Ren Mengyi because of other people's one-sided words. However, now that so many people were surrounding her, it was obviously not the time to find out the truth.
Gong Yin said with a bit of protectiveness that he had to take Ren Mengyi away first.
Qi Nian looked at Gong Yin who was still protecting Ren Mengyi and shook her head: [Alas, Professor Gong is still in the dark and thinks that Ren Mengyi's father is a close friend of her husband who passed away.]
[In fact, it is not the case at all. Wu Chaoying has no close friends at all. On the contrary, Ren Mengyi's mother is actually Wu Chaoying's first love. In order to legitimately take care of his first love and daughter, this scumbag has been deceiving Professor Gong and trying his best to promote the relationship between Professor Gong and Ren Mengyi's mother. In the end, he even recognized Ren Mengyi as his goddaughter.]
[I can’t believe that Ren Mengyi and her daughter live downstairs from Professor Gong’s house. Wu Chaoying often secretly goes downstairs to look for his first love, but Professor Gong didn’t find out for so many years.]
[It's too bad. Professor Gong still treats Ren Mengyi as his own daughter. He has no idea that Ren Mengyi's mother has recently been instigating Wu Chaoying to secretly transfer property and divorce Professor Gong.]
Every word fell into Gong Yin's ears. She dropped her hands that were holding Ren Mengyi's shoulders and looked at her goddaughter in disbelief.
