Seeing Yu Luqing's palm about to land on her face, Yuan Meng instinctively wanted to reach out and stop it. But at the moment she raised her hand, she forced herself to hold back. She couldn't break her persona in front of so many people. Forget it. A slap would be a slap!
Yuan Meng made up her mind and tightly closed her eyes, waiting for the slap to fall on her face. However, after waiting for more than ten seconds, there was no movement. She opened her eyes and saw that Yu Luqing's arm was firmly grasped by a big hand.
"You... Let go of me! How outrageous! Don't you know how to respect your elders?"
Gu Mingchi sneered, "Elder? You don't deserve it!"
"Respect is mutual. Whom have you respected? Do you deserve respect? As soon as you came in, you pointed at that girl and scolded her without knowing the truth, slandering her innocence. Do you think you deserve to be an elder?"
Yuan Meng hid behind Gu Mingchi, with her head down all the time and her body trembling. She wasn't scared. She was trying hard to hold back her laughter. Oh my god, it was so cool! She had to give Tutu a hundred thumbs up!
"You, you, you..." Yu Luqing pointed at Gu Mingchi shakily, but couldn't say a word after stuttering for a long time. Instead, she suddenly covered her heart and collapsed on a chair beside, gasping for breath.
Seeing Yu Luqing having another attack, Bei Mo immediately panicked. She quickly rummaged through her bag for the medicine, then fed it to Yu Luqing with the water beside. At the same time, she gently stroked Yu Luqing's chest and comforted her in a soft voice.
"Don't be angry. Why are you angry with them? It's their fault for being so ignorant. Don't get upset..."
Seeing Bei Mo busy comforting Yu Luqing, Yuan Meng thought they wouldn't have time to notice them for the moment. So she took the opportunity to pull Gu Mingchi and ran out.
It was not until they reached the parking lot that Yuan Meng let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, dear Tutu. If it weren't for you, I would really have to stand there and take the beating." Her voice was full of grievance.
She didn't know what bad luck she had run into to meet that old witch.
"You're welcome. It's what I should do." Gu Mingchi hesitated for a moment, then said, "But... No matter how much you like Ling Qianchen, you don't have to wrong yourself like this."
Yuan Meng was stunned.
"The evil mother - in - law has come to point at your nose and scold you, but you don't fight back or talk back. Isn't it just because you don't want to make him embarrassed? And according to what your mother - in - law said, his heart isn't with you. It's better to have a good break - up. Why do you have to wrong yourself like this? Girls should be pampered!"
Yuan Meng, "..."
She just felt quite guilty.
If Tutu knew the truth, he would be angry, right?
But she had to admit that she felt quite comfortable in her heart. It was like a warm current had flowed into her body, making her whole body feel warm.
Looking at Gu Mingchi, who was still indignant on her behalf, Yuan Meng smiled and said, "Don't worry. The divorce is coming soon."
Gu Mingchi, "I heard that Ling Qianchen is chasing another woman? Isn't he just a scumbag? He's not worth your liking... Wait, what did you say? Divorced?"
"Almost. We'll go to get the divorce certificate when he comes back from his business trip." Yuan Meng shrugged, not really wanting to act anymore.
"Then why did you still let that old woman make things difficult for you?" Gu Mingchi widened his eyes, looking completely incredulous.
Yuan Meng felt quite guilty. To be honest, when she fought wits with that old witch, although it seemed that she lost more often, in fact, it was always the old witch who was unlucky.
She was not someone who would let others bully her.
"She found a fortune - teller who said that my zodiac sign is good for their Ling family." Yuan Meng coughed dryly. "If she knew that we were going to divorce, she would definitely make a fuss, and we might not be able to get divorced!"
Hearing this, Gu Mingchi looked at Yuan Meng in surprise to confirm that she wasn't joking. "No way. I thought she couldn't wait for you to get far away from her son."
"Yeah, it's really hard to explain."
Hearing that Yuan Meng was going to get divorced soon, the stone in Gu Mingchi's heart slowly fell to the ground, and his mood suddenly brightened.
While they were talking, they had already reached the parking spot. Gu Mingchi opened the door for Yuan Meng, and then got into the car himself.
"Let me take you home today. I'll treat you another day."
"I'll treat you next time, Actor Gu. Just to thank you for speaking up for me!" After saying that, Yuan Meng winked playfully.
Gu Mingchi smiled and said, "It's up to you."
"Okay then!"
Gu Mingchi shook his head helplessly and asked, "Where to?"
"Take me back to Blues."
"Got it!"
On the other side, when Yu Luqing finally recovered, the seat beside her was already empty.
"Aunt Yu, are you feeling better?"
"I'm better. Thanks to you, Momo." Supported by Bei Mo, Yu Luqing sat up straight. Seeing that Yuan Meng was gone, the anger in her heart welled up again. "Where are they!?"
"Aunt Yu, you mean Sister Yuan Meng. They left a long time ago. They were even holding hands. I called them several times, but they didn't even look back. It's so outrageous!" Bei Mo looked very angry, as if Yuan Meng had committed some heinous crime.
"It's so outrageous! Do they even take me, their mother - in - law, seriously!" Hearing this, Yu Luqing was really furious. She immediately wanted to take out her phone and call Yuan Meng back.
"Oh, Aunt Yu, haven't you noticed? Sister Yuan Meng thinks she's the mistress of the family just because she's Brother Qianchen's wife. When have you ever been in her eyes? Look, when you were being bullied by that stinky man just now, I saw her laughing aside!"
"Really?" Yu Luqing looked at Bei Mo suspiciously.
Did Yuan Meng have the guts?
Bei Mo nodded firmly. "I saw it clearly! Aunt Yu, anyway, Qianchen doesn't like her. It's better to let them get divorced, so as not to let her disgrace the Ling family!"
"No!" Hearing the word "divorce", Yu Luqing got anxious instead. "Even if he doesn't like her, they can't get divorced. The master said that that dead girl has a good fate and is good for her husband. It's all beneficial and has no harm to the Ling family! This girl must stay in our Ling family!"
"Aunt Yu! That Lan Jiu is a liar! I've inquired. No one has ever heard of him! Yuan Meng must have joined hands with him to cheat your money!" Bei Mo frowned and said.
What era was this? How could she still believe in such things! No wonder Qianchen had a bad relationship with her. If anyone was forced to get married because of a fortune - teller's words, they wouldn't be able to stand it!
"No. Mr. Lan is extremely accurate in fortune - telling. He even calculated the situation of our family. He asked a lot of things at that time, and it was very accurate!" Yu Luqing repeatedly emphasized, "He must not be a liar!"
If it weren't for the fact that Yu Luqing was still a bit useful, she wouldn't have wasted so much time trying to please her!
A look of contempt flashed across Bei Mo's eyes. "Aunt Yu! Yuan Meng is just an orphan! If she had a good fate, why didn't she be born into a good family?"
"This..." Hearing what Bei Mo said, Yu Luqing suddenly hesitated.
Seeing that Yu Luqing was a bit shaken, Bei Mo directly held Yu Luqing's hands with both of hers and said, "Aunt Yu, look. Yuan Meng has a bad personality and a strange temper. How does this look like someone with a good fate? She doesn't look like someone who is good for her husband at all. Moreover, as long as the zodiac signs match, there is a good - for - husband fate. There's no such thing as a specific person being good for another specific person!"
