The rich lady named Mengmeng glanced at the person's mobile phone and fidgeted with her jade bracelet, then she dramatically cut a piece of steak before stuffing it into her mouth, “Oh, I saw her in front of Chengcheng's kindergarten two days ago. Her child is quite good-looking, but unfortunately he wasn't brought up well. He has an unruly character and even quarreled with my Chengcheng. Well they are kids, I guess it is normal for them to get into fights now and then. Wei Wei takes care of her children alone, not only does she have to send and pick her children to and from school, but she also has to work as a car mechanic. Her life seems hard enough so I didn't want to find fault with her and her children. After all, we used to be cla.s.smates.”
“Oh my, she is taking care of her children alone?” Some who were present exclaimed unbelievably, the one with the mobile phone said quizzically, “How could it be? Where is the father of the children?”
Li Meng shook her head and said with a pretentious aura of n.o.bility, “That, I don't know. You know me, I don't like poking my nose into the home affairs of others, so I merely greeted Wei Wei. We didn't talk much.”
“Gosh, she used to be the campus belle of our school. She used to be so mysterious in school. Do you remember, we used to think that she was of a military background” Back then every piece of her clothing was worth a few pieces of ours. So many boys in our college would come to law school just to take a look at her. I'd never imagined that she would end up like that.” Someone shook their heads while sighing.
Li Meng laughed meaningfully, “What can you tell from one's schooling days? After all, we were all young then, it was natural for one to secure attention through various means.”
“Mengmeng is right.” The long-haired woman sitting beside Rich Lady Cheng pursed her lips, it was hard to hide the disdain in her tone, “If she was really of a military background she wouldn't show it so easily. Take me and Mengmeng for example, we would never talk about our family. Unlike someone who led such a glamorous life in school, everyone thought she'd gone abroad after graduation. She even pretended that that was the case, when in fact, she was just a car mechanic. Haha, how interesting.”
This whole comment was pretty offensive, Mengmeng took a glance at her and drank her coffee, “Sisi, some people are generally vain and that's acceptable, maybe Wei Wei has her difficulties. We'll be having a cla.s.s reunion in a few days, I've invited her too. Let's find out what difficulties she has, we as cla.s.smates should help as we can.”
“Mengmeng you are too kind.” Someone took Meng Meng's hand and asked again, “Helian Wei Wei, is she really repairing cars? That's such a dirty job, she'd get stained with gasoline all over.”
Li Meng sighed and lowered the coffee cup in her hand, “It's not just a matter of dirtiness, that is not a job girls should do. You'll see during our reunion, she doesn't even have a car after working for so many years. I'm afraid her house is also rented. She ferries her children to school on a bike, it's so dangerous and laborious.”
“Tsk tsk, who would have thought that the great talent of law school back then would live such a life.” The person called Du Sisi shook her head and blew at the hot coffee in her hand, “That's why it's always better not to be too arrogant as a person. When there were so many boys from school pursuing her, she never even spared them a look, she was always keeping to herself. Well now, she is just an old woman with two kids, what else can she do?”
Li Meng laughed, “That's why we have to help her. When the time comes we must get Wei Wei to come to the reunion, we can't let her slip away from this.”
She sounded like she meant well for Helian Wei Wei, but if one a.n.a.lyzed her intention carefully, it was not hard to know what Li Meng had in mind.
Most girls would probably behave like that. If they had been compet.i.tors in school, no matter how many years had pa.s.sed since they left school, the rivalry would still be there if they caught wind of their sworn adversaries.
Furthermore, Li Meng still hated Helian Wei Wei.
Back then, Helian Wei Wei was above her in every aspect.
Li Meng initially stood out as the well-off girl. She had a proper military upbringing, even though her father was not of a very high position, her looks were still far above average.
However, ever since she was put in the same cla.s.s as Helian Wei Wei, she lost all her advantages. Fortunately, she enjoyed good relations among the girls and she was easier to approach than Helian Wei Wei.
But the man she liked still rejected her, he even told her personally that Helian Wei Wei was the girl he liked. Even though Helian Wei Wei had rejected him explicitly, he only had eyes for Helian Wei Wei.
To this day, the man had remained single even though he was the school hunk at the time. After graduation, he was often invited by the school to return as a guest speaker. Even if you disregarded his superior upbringing, his current achievements were enough to impress many women.
It was time to break the man's fantasy. Xiao Zifeng should take a good look at his dream girl who no longer looked like before. She was nothing but a poor car mechanic!
The thought of this made Li Meng smile subconsciously, she really looked forward to their upcoming cla.s.s reunion. It would definitely be a satisfying scenario!
The few women wandered off-topic in their conversation, everyone's expression was slightly contemplative.
Outside, the night sky was getting darker and darker. At the same time, in an old alley in Li City.
At dawn, pa.s.sersby on the street gradually decreased and occasional singing could be heard coming from the entrance of Cang Mountain.
A few locals were gathered together and they were walking down the alley.
One of them was the tour guide who had beaten up someone today. He and his brothers had just finished eating a barbecue meal, they still looked drunk.
Someone whispered in his ear, “Big Brother, the female lawyer today was quite pretty, but she seems hard to handle.”
“What are you afraid of? We have support.” Tour Guide Liu sneered and shouted ahead, “Remember, we don't have to be afraid of anything. If she continues to be a busybody, someone will deal with her tomorrow night. Back then it was the same with that female college student who insisted on causing trouble, even though I was not the one who took her on, but I knew what her consequences would be. Whoever hinders him, whoever spills the beans on what happens here, it will not end well for them. If the female lawyer continues to be persistent, we will deal with it. You can do whatever you want with her!”
When Tour Guide Liu was done, a few were still laughing.
However, after a few seconds the laughter stopped and Tour Guide Liu b.u.mped into the person in front of him. He muttered unhappily, “Hey, what's wrong with you, why did you stop?”
There was no response at all from the two people in the front.
The one standing in front of him however, had started to tremble for no reason…
