Chapter 292: I always embarrass myself in front of her]

A private room in a small restaurant in Beijing.

"This is impossible... absolutely impossible!"

When Sheng Zhiwu muttered this for who knows how many times, he looked at Ye Mei again. After the figure of Ye Jian in his mind overlapped with Ye Mei, he turned his face away with distorted features and said angrily in an unbelievable tone: "It's not a dream!"

Ye Mei: "..." You are so sad and angry that it makes it difficult for me to live.

She expected Sheng Zhiwu to be surprised, angry, or calmly accept it -

but she didn't expect this man to be like a fool and talk nonsense.

"Let's put this aside for now."

Ye Mei said: "Have you eaten? Let's order the dishes first."

Sheng Zhiwu couldn't help but say: "Is it time to eat now?"

"Gurgle..."

As soon as the voice fell, his stomach made a sound very uncooperatively.

Sheng Zhiwu's expression froze. He covered his stomach and looked at Ye Mei dimly: "Did you hear that?"

Ye Mei: "I can tell you're hungry."

Sheng Zhiwu: "..." Why does he always embarrass himself every time he meets Ye Mei?

Ye Mei was about to call the waiter.

But Sheng Zhiwu held her back, looking a little embarrassed: "Forget it... I'm not that hungry."

He gave all his money to his mother. Now he searched his body and estimated that he didn't have more than five yuan. How could it be enough to go to a restaurant?

Ye Mei glanced at him and said, "We are friends. How can I be hungry for you? I'll treat you for this meal."

She was not stupid. She could see that Sheng Zhiwu was out of money. He was afraid that he couldn't afford the meal, but he was embarrassed to let her pay. But why would she haggle over the cost of a meal with her friends?

Ye Mei called the waiter directly and ordered seven or eight meat dishes in a short time, without even a single leaf of vegetable.

Sheng Zhiwu wanted to tell her several times not to order such expensive dishes, but was forced back by Ye Mei's glare. He shut up silently and shrank in his chair like an abused and wronged young wife.

After the waiter left, Ye Mei said, "Okay, stop wasting time. I am Ye Jian. You should accept this reality as soon as possible so that we can talk about business."

Hearing her mention this, Sheng Zhiwu showed pain again, "Ah..."

Ye Mei was a little hurt by his expression and couldn't help but say, "It's a fact that I deceived you. I don't intend to deny it, but you should also understand that I didn't do it on purpose, right?"

The first time they met was when she was looking for a source of black market goods. If she used the identity of a woman, she didn't know how much unnecessary trouble she would cause.

Sheng Zhiwu must know this better than her, and he should understand her.

Now that the two of them have a good relationship, Ye Mei no longer hides the truth, and she treats Sheng Zhiwu as a real friend.

But Sheng Zhiwu looks unwilling to face reality, and as a friend, Ye Mei still feels uncomfortable.

Isn't it just a change of gender? It shouldn't be that serious.

"... Sorry."

After struggling for a few seconds, Sheng Zhiwu finally forced himself to accept reality.

If he continued to be awkward, he was afraid that Ye Mei would feel uncomfortable. "I have no objection to you, but... I just think it's weird that my former brother has become a woman."

Hearing this, Ye Mei thought about it seriously and said, "Then let's not be brothers in the future."

Sheng Zhiwu's heart skipped a beat: "Then what?"

Ye Mei looked at him and said seriously: "Sisters."

Sheng Zhiwu: "..." That's not necessary.

"Tell a joke to lighten the mood."

Seeing Sheng Zhiwu's twitching face, Ye Mei couldn't help but laugh, "I was born in March 1958, how about you?"

Sheng Zhiwu was surprised: "I was also born in March 1958, I was born on the 18th."

Ye Mei raised her eyebrows: "I was born on the 15th, call me sister."

Sheng Zhiwu: "..." Not only did she lose her good brother, she was inexplicably demoted to a younger brother.

Her mood became more complicated.

Seeing his bitter face, Ye Mei became even happier.

It must be said that handsome men are handsome men, no matter how they make expressions, they are pleasing to the eye.

She immediately ignored Sheng Zhiwu's performance just now.

"I actually wanted to tell you earlier, but something happened at home and I missed the opportunity. I didn't mean to tell you until now."

Ye Mei cared about Sheng Zhiwu as a friend, so she explained her identity in detail to prevent Sheng Zhiwu from misunderstanding.

Sheng Zhiwu finally adjusted his mood. He nodded and said, "...I understand."

Ye Mei could explain it to him so clearly. Of course, he could see that Ye Mei valued him, and she didn't care whether Ye Jian was a man or a woman.

Regardless of whether he was a man or a woman, he was a good friend who had a life-long friendship with him.

The two chatted for a few words, and Ye Mei confessed her current identity.

"Is your mother the long-lost girl from the Jiang family?"

Sheng Zhiwu had a wide network of contacts in the capital, and he had heard this gossip, and he was very sorry. Li Qi had helped out, but the villain secretly stole the child. It was really a good thing that good people were not rewarded, which was too infuriating.

Unexpectedly, after many years, the child was found, and the other party's daughter was still his friend.

"My uncle wants to take me to do business and learn from him."

Ye Mei asked, "What do you think?"

Sheng Zhiwu was silent after hearing this, and then said, "I have heard of your uncle's name. He has capital and connections. It is more promising to be with him."

"Really?"

Ye Mei said, "But I refused."

Sheng Zhiwu asked in surprise, "Why?"

Ye Mei looked at him, "Didn't you say you would take me to do business? You said it first, so of course I came here before you. You won't regret it, right?"

Sheng Zhiwu waved his hand quickly, "Why would I regret it?"

He dreamed of tricking Ye Jian into his team and making a fortune with his good brother.

But in the blink of an eye, the good brothers became good sisters... bah, became siblings.

Sheng Zhiwu didn't know whether Ye Mei, such a glamorous girl, was willing to suffer with him and run a team to trade goods.

"Then I'll join you."

Ye Mei smiled, "But let me make it clear first, I won't be your little brother, I'll just cooperate with you and learn from you."

As she saw more of the world, Ye Mei's ambitions grew. She would not be willing to be anyone's subordinate. She wanted to make a name for herself.

She worked with Sheng Zhiwu because she understood Sheng Zhiwu's character and knew that he would sincerely lead her in business. She could also give him corresponding rewards, which would be mutually beneficial.

This is better than working with Jiang Ting.

Ye Mei didn't dislike her uncle's family. How could she, who had nothing, look down on the Jiang family?

She just thought that her uncle's family also had children. If she went to work there, even if Jiang Shaoyan didn't mind, as the company developed in the future, everyone would have to face the issue of interests sooner or later.

Ye Mei didn't like that, so she simply separated and did it on her own. If Sheng Zhiwu couldn't teach her, she would go to her family to learn from him.

"Okay."

Sheng Zhiwu had known Ye Mei for so long and knew a little about Ye Mei's thoughts. He smiled and said, "I will definitely teach you everything I know!"

If it were someone else, Sheng Zhiwu might still hesitate.

But for Ye Mei, he inexplicably had the urge to give all his trust to her.

He didn't know whether it was because of Ye Mei's great personal charm or for some other reason.

"Happy cooperation!"

Ye Mei stretched out her hand to Sheng Zhiwu.

Sheng Zhiwu also held her hand and said softly, "It's a pleasure to work with you."
