98: Chapter 98 Wang Jie reveals shocking information: a chance encounter with Meng Fanyi at a jewelry store
Su Wantang was also looking at Wang Jie with cold eyes at this moment, her "rich girl" attitude kicking in.
"This classmate, where are you working these days~~~"
The girl's tone carried a hint of provocation.
Tang Luochuan was stunned, and Wang Jie was dumbfounded!!
Su Wantang didn't quite understand why: "What... did I say something wrong?"
Wang Jie suddenly pointed at Su Wantang, huffing with anger, his hand even trembling slightly.
Tang Luochuan held him down and said to Su Wantang: "He didn't continue school after graduating high school; he scored 53 points on the Chinese portion of the college entrance exam! A total score of 53 points... He's idle, accomplishes nothing, and lives off his dad! He hates it most when people ask him about his grades or if he went to college."
At this moment, Wang Jie also huffed: "Sister-in-law, my brain isn't very good! Brother Chuan has made it clear to you, right? Are you looking down on me for not going to college?"
"No, no, no..." Su Wantang also hadn't expected that just as she wanted to provoke him, a single sentence had completely shattered his defenses: "I didn't mean that, I'm sorry!"
"Luochuan! What are you doing? Come here quickly." Seeing that they were still chatting, Zhu Xiumei shouted at the top of her lungs.
Wang Jie nudged the two edgy girls beside him: "Go chat with my two sisters-in-law. I have something to discuss with Brother Chuan."
"Oh~~" The two edgy girls swayed with every step, walking with quite a suggestive flair.
Even though Tang Luochuan warned himself not to look, he couldn't help but take a few extra glances.
It's a man's nature.
Looks, actually... can only rank second; the first place has to be—'exciting'.
As the two walked side by side, Wang Jie suddenly lowered his voice: "I heard Meng Fanyi found a partner? Is she getting married soon?"
"Yeah, that's right. Aunt Li from our village even introduced her to me back then, but in the end, my distant cousin married her. The wedding is tomorrow."
Wang Jie suddenly lowered his head, his voice even lower: "I've slept with her." He paused and added, "...Sorry."
"Damn..." Tang Luochuan's brow instantly furrowed, "The fact that you can tell me this from the bottom of your heart means you're a real brother. But why does it sound so uncomfortable?"
"Brother Chuan, my apologies."
"You didn't cheat on me, so what are you apologizing for? It's like I'm the one getting married to her."
"Oh, that's true! There's one more thing, I'm planning to go to Shanghai. Do you want to work with me!"
"Do what?"
"My dad gave me 400,000 to go to Shanghai to make a living and get some experience! I feel like my brain isn't very good, and I need a strategist like you."
"Your dad is really bold to give you that much."
"There's no other way. I'm his only son, and I can't really just be a piece of trash! So I think I need to work hard."
"What do you plan to do?"
"After we get there, we'll rent a place, and then I'll take you to get prostitutes..."
"Shut up! Absolutely not!" Tang Luochuan interrupted on the spot.
Upon hearing this, Wang Jie said self-reproachfully: "Brother Chuan, you're still the best! I told you my brain isn't good; you spotted the flaw in my plan as soon as you heard it. It's still not meticulous enough!"
Tang Luochuan: "It's damn hard not to notice that!"
Meanwhile, behind the two, Jiang Jinyue and Su Wantang were walking with the two edgy girls.
There was no envy or jealousy between the two sides.
Normal women would take a few extra looks at Jiang Jinyue and Su Wantang, but the others wouldn't.
Because the reason they are called "edgy girls" is that they definitely have some mental issues.
The two sides simply couldn't chat together.
Wang Jie just followed Tang Luochuan like that. He was idle all day, and when he met a good buddy, he'd just chat randomly to pass the time.
In front of the jewelry store.
Wang Jie nudged Tang Luochuan with his elbow and whispered: "Brother, tell me if you don't have money! You can't lose face in front of your girlfriend; I've got 20,000 with me."
"Alright, alright, I know! You don't need to worry." Tang Luochuan brushed him off. This was the reason why he could hang out with Wang Jie.
Although this guy sometimes said unpleasant things and his brain wasn't very good.
But when something actually happened, he was truly reliable, and he wasn't the type to nitpick.
Nor did he look down on him because his family background was ordinary.
He was much better than those people who could say nice things but would run away the moment something actually happened.
Walking into the store, Tang Luochuan took the lead, guiding his mother and grandmother toward the counter: "Please recommend some jewelry suitable for my mother and grandmother to wear."
Zhu Xiumei said: "Xiaochuan, take a look for Wantang and Jinyue too! Don't just buy for us two."
The salesperson smiled as she looked at this family; it looked like he had brought his daughters-in-law along.
Spending was inevitable.
But Tang Luochuan replied nonchalantly: "They wouldn't like any of these."
That was indeed the case; those two edgy girls were already leaning over the counter, looking at various bracelets and necklaces.
Su Wantang and Jiang Jinyue, however, stood to the side, scrolling through their phones and chatting in low voices.
In the entire room, not a single exquisite item could catch their attention.
On the other hand, in their circle, wearing these would invite mockery.
Was it that they couldn't afford luxury goods? Or had they reached menopause and their tastes changed?
Except for gold investments, of course.
The salesperson's smile stiffened. This family seemed to have a disjointed style; over there, the two girls were living in peace and quiet.
On this side, the young man was so handsome it was moving.
The mother and grandmother were, however, plain.
As for Tang Hai and Grandpa Tang Shuye, they had already gone out for a stroll, completely uninterested in jewelry.
As for the others... the nouveau riche and the edgy girls??
"You recommend some for me first." Tang Luochuan continued.
"Alright, sir..."
The salesperson didn't hesitate and began to focus on introducing items to the family.
Zhu Xiumei actually wanted to compare carefully, but Tang Luochuan didn't give her the chance.
"I'll take this!"
"This one is also not bad."
"Pack those two bracelets too..."
"Give me the biggest ring, the nouveau riche version! I'll get one for my dad too."
Zhu Xiumei and Grandma Liu Meiyu watched with their hearts pounding; their child really didn't go easy when spending money.
"Welcome..."
The voices of other salespeople at the door sounded again, and a few girls walked in.
Su Wantang just glanced over, then put down her phone and nudged Jiang Jinyue beside her: "Hey, Jinyue! That is Meng Fanyi!!"
Jiang Jinyue looked up, her gaze immediately locking onto the other person's chest.
Then she lowered her head to look at her own.
She said in a huff, whispering: "Doesn't she find it heavy?"
But Su Wantang didn't have so much pretension in her heart, and besides, the two had chatted quite happily yesterday.
"Fanyi!!" Su Wantang waved.
A single 'Fanyi'.
Tang Luochuan and Wang Jie both turned their heads abruptly.
A strange atmosphere instantly spread.
Tang Luochuan felt a bit uncomfortable; after all, Meng Fanyi was marrying his cousin, and here Wang Jie had just finished saying he had slept with her.
And they ran into her immediately after?
As for Meng Fanyi, seeing Tang Luochuan actually with Wang Jie, her scalp instantly tingled.
The moment she saw Wang Jie, scenes from the hotel back then surfaced before her eyes.
Seeing Tang Luochuan, it was still a pity; why couldn't Zhu Jianhua be this handsome!
Only Wang Jie's mind was simple. Looking at Meng Fanyi, who seemed 'bigger' than before, he really wanted to ask, while the wedding hadn't been held yet.
Could we do it one more time?
