Although Yuan Meng was thinking about getting a divorce and taking revenge on Chai Yanyu in her heart, she still had to maintain her persona on the surface. After all, she was supposed to be a silly, sweet and innocent little white rabbit who regarded her husband as the center of her life.
"Ke'er, don't think too much. Qianchen isn't such a person. But his cousin... When I first met him, he was quite flirtatious. I didn't have a good impression of him!"
Yuan Meng said seriously, showing no sign of the crazy complaints in her heart about Chai Yanyu, from the bet until the meal just now.
"Then... Then Sister Mengmeng, is it okay for you to suddenly spend so much of your husband's money?"
In Yan Ke'er's mind, Yuan Meng was now a poor little thing whose husband didn't dote on her. Even his cousin could bully her. If Yuan Meng suddenly spent so much money and her husband blamed her, what should she do!
"It's okay, Ke'er. My husband is still very good to me. I'll just call him and tell him."
Yuan Meng thought that since Chai Yanyu had tricked her like this, she must call Ling Qianchen and tell on him. Otherwise, how could she live up to Young Master Chai's efforts in speaking well of Ling Qianchen for her?
At this time, on Ling Qianchen's side, his assistant was reporting the bank statement to him.
"Mr. Ling, the bank statement shows that the wife's supplementary card spent 500,000 yuan today. Among them, 400,000 yuan was for jewelry, and another 100,000 yuan was... for a meal!"
Ling Qianchen's assistant had seen the world, but he was still quite shocked when he heard about this huge meal cost of 100,000 yuan. What on earth did the wife eat to spend 100,000 yuan!
Dinglinglingling, Dinglinglingling...
Just as Ling Qianchen was about to ask Yuan Meng what she had eaten, Yuan Meng called.
"Husband... I... Do you already know that I spent a lot of money?"
Yuan Meng guessed that Ling Qianchen should have seen it, so she asked aggrievedly.
"Um... Explain." Ling Qianchen's tone was a bit cold. Obviously, he had misunderstood Yuan Meng for being extravagant.
He's so rich, but he's so cold just because his wife spent 100,000 yuan on a meal! What a jerk! Yan Ke'er, who was beside Yuan Meng, couldn't help thinking when she heard Ling Qianchen's cold voice on the phone.
"I... I'm going to shoot a variety show in a few days, so I went shopping with Ke'er. We met Yanyu on the commercial street... Well... Your cousin! Then... Yanyu..." As she spoke, Yuan Meng's voice started to tremble with sobs.
"Yanyu said he wanted to treat us to a meal at the Central Hotel. Wuwuwu, Ke'er and I were so happy. But... But... Wuwuwu, while we were eating... Yanyu said he was going to the bathroom... But he didn't come back for ten minutes! He even left us a note saying that the meal cost 100,000 yuan. Husband, I really had no other choice, so I used your supplementary card. Wuwuwu, husband, don't blame me..."
After hearing Yuan Meng's explanation, Ling Qianchen couldn't help but have a headache. On the one hand, Yuan Meng's crying skills were really hard for him to bear. On the other hand, he always felt that his cousin might have some kind of mental problem. It seemed that he was just too idle.
"Stop crying. I know... I... I don't blame you. Go home quickly after you're done shopping."
After Ling Qianchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone and called his assistant in.
"Call Chai Yanyu and tell him that the Zhulingwan project will be handed over to him. He'll be responsible for any failure."
The Zhulingwan project wasn't very difficult, but it was still relatively complicated for a playboy like Chai Yanyu.
Not long after, Chai Yanyu called.
"Brother... Brother! Why... Why do you give me the Zhulingwan project?!"
"Seeing that you're too idle, I'm giving you something to do. If you can't do it well, I'll inform Uncle. You know the consequences."
After Ling Qianchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone, not giving Chai Yanyu a chance to explain or telling him the real reason why he had to do the project.
On Yuan Meng's side, she sent Yan Ke'er, who had been persuading her to get a divorce all the way, home and then drove back. There had been a lot of messages and calls for her on the way, but she ignored them because she was driving.
"Humph...? Chai Yanyu, this bastard still dares to call!"
Yuan Meng didn't want to answer at first, but just then, Chai Yanyu called again.
"Ai Yue, you're being a bit unfair, aren't you! Did you tell on me to my cousin? Now he's... Anyway, he's punishing me! It must be you who told on me."
Yuan Meng found Chai Yanyu's words quite funny. "Telling on you? Chai Yanyu, I'm Yuan Meng, not Ai Yue. I'm an orphan all alone. You ask a poor orphan like me to pay for a 100,000 - yuan meal. Aren't you ashamed? Besides, where would I get the money to pay for the meal? So I used Ling Qianchen's supplementary card."
As Yuan Meng spoke, she couldn't help laughing. She gloated and said, "I thought it was quite reasonable for the cousin to pay for the meal. And it's also reasonable for the cousin to punish the younger cousin for his unnecessary expenses!"
"You...! Are you even human? I said I'd treat you to a meal, but I didn't ask you to order the most expensive dishes on the table. If it wasn't so expensive, would I have run away? Why don't you reflect on yourselves!"
Chai Yanyu was so angry that he stammered. All the setbacks in his life had been because of this woman, Yuan Meng. Did he owe her in his previous life!
"I don't care. Anyway, because of you guys, I've been punished by my cousin to do this project, the Zhulingwan project. My brother listens to Ai Yue so much. You go and talk to my brother to help me get the project done!"
"Pfft... Chai Yanyu, haven't you figured out the situation yet? First of all, I'm not a human. I'm a fairy! Second, your brother asking you to do the project has nothing to do with me. I think you deserve it! Maybe your brother wants to train you! Young man, do it well. Bye!"
Yuan Meng hung up the phone without hesitation and went home happily.
"This couple is really surprisingly in sync when it comes to hanging up on me!" Chai Yanyu was so angry after being hung up on that he didn't know what to say. After a long while, he finally managed to blurt out this sentence.
Yuan Meng didn't have time to deal with Chai Yanyu anymore. She still had a lot of things to arrange.
"Shanshan, are you busy?" Yuan Meng called Luo Yishan as soon as she got back to the bedroom without a camera.
"What's the important matter, Empress Meng?" Luo Yishan said in a very high - pitched voice, as if she were Eunuch Shan serving Empress Meng.
"Sigh... Shanshan, come back and log in to my account. Use a voice changer and make a few calls to Ling Qianchen for me."
"Ah...! Mengmeng, Ling Qianchen is quite familiar with you. Won't I expose myself if I act as you?"
"Is he more familiar with me than you are? And I'm just about to tell you what to say. You don't need to talk to him about anything else. Just talk about work. Our whole project is quite innovative. It's about perfecting and updating the entire system on the basis of the original security system..."
Yuan Meng told Luo Yishan about the whole project and also told her what to say during the phone call.
"That's about it. I'll make a document later and tell you exactly what to say to make sure there are no mistakes!"
"Hey, Mengmeng, I just suddenly thought... Why do you want me to make the calls for you?"
Luo Yishan, who was a bit slow to react, finally grasped the key point of the matter.
"Pfft... You just realized it now... Sigh... Isn't the third episode of my reality show variety show about to start shooting? I'm going to be busy with my acting career and take care of my nephew. Don't miss me too much~"
"Hahaha!" Luo Yishan burst out laughing after hearing this and couldn't speak for a long time.
"Poor Mengmeng. Tsk, that variety show is really torturous. So, where is it this time? Another uninhabited island?"
"I'm not telling! Humph, remember to make the calls for me!"
"Hey hey hey, then I'll have to charge you for the call fee... Let's say ten yuan per minute. Hello... Hello!"
As soon as Luo Yishan mentioned the call fee, Yuan Meng hung up the phone quickly, not giving Luo Yishan any chance to bargain.
A few seconds later, on their chat page, Luo Yishan sent a meme of a crazy cat, and Yuan Meng replied with a meme of a sneaky rabbit. Both of them couldn't help smiling at the screen.
