For Zhong Xiaotian, Yang Ming didn’t have any impression. When he was in Hong Kong, he hadn’t met Zhong Xiaotian. Moreover, the two guys that Zhong Xiaotian had sent out to find trouble with Yang Ming, Corn-eyed and Brother Black, were killed by Feng Dao and Hei Shu.
On the other hand, although Zhong Xiaotian was afraid for a while afterward, he didn’t see Yang Ming anymore. He also forgot about it. When he met Yang Ming just now, even though he found Yang Ming familiar, he didn’t manage to recall that Yang Ming was the person who bought the ring at the auction.
When Shu Ya entered the room, Yang Ming turned around to peek into the situation in his room. At this time, the door opened. Chen Mengyan poked her head out and said to Yang Ming in a simple tone, “You can come in.”
“Oh…” Yang Ming didn’t know what Chen Mengyan was about to do, so he braced himself as he went in.
“Don’t you know how to close the door?” When Chen Mengyan saw Yang Ming standing in the doorway dumbfounded, she rolled her eyes at Yang Ming. “Do you want everyone to know everything about our matters?”
Yang Ming closed the door. He looked at Lin Zhiyun and Chen Mengyan who were sitting side by side on the bed. The two seemed to have no quarrels. On the contrary, they seemed to be somewhat harmonious.
Yang Ming walked carefully toward the bed. When he was just about to sit down, he heard Chen Mengyan’s words, “Did I ask you to sit down?”
Yang Ming was shocked. His butt seemed to be equipped with spring as he stood up once again.
“Sister Yan… just let him sit…” Looking at Yang Ming in a panic, Lin Zhiyun spoke as she couldn’t bear it.
Chen Mengyan frowned. She turned to look at Lin Zhiyun and flattened her lips. She said as though she hated it when Lin Zhiyun didn’t meet her expectation. “You ah. Really. I just said that we have to interrogate him together. He just stood for a while and you began to feel bad… Ai!”
When Yang Ming heard Chen Mengyan, he understood that these two women had reached a consensus in the room just now. However, Lin Zhiyun became a spy as she just turned her head…
Lin Zhiyun blushed. She felt shy. She said it subconsciously as she didn’t think too much. At this time, she quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Sister Yan…”
“Forget it. You sit then.” Chen Mengyan also didn’t want to drop Lin Zhiyun’s face. She reached out and spoke to Yang Ming.
Just now, when Yang Ming entered the room, he didn’t think too much when he sat on the bed. But at the moment, Yang Ming was troubled. Should I sit on the side of Lin Zhiyun or sit on the side of Chen Mengyan?
Logically, Chen Mengyan was Yang Ming’s true girlfriend, sitting on her side was justified. However, Yang Ming felt sorry for Lin Zhiyun. Yang Ming just had sex with her and yet she was thrown by the side. It wasn’t quite appropriate.
It couldn’t be helped. Yang Ming had to force himself to come between Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun. He just turned his body as though he was about to sit down.
“What are you doing!?” Chen Mengyan sighed and pushed Yang Ming away. “I let you sit down, and yet you’re not satisfied? Stay away!”
Lin Zhiyun and Chen Mengyan were sitting very close, but there was still some distance between them, so Yang Ming had a chance to take advantage of it. However, Chen Mengyan’s words helped to dissolve Yang Ming’s trouble. Yang Ming simply stopped trying to sit on the bed and sat on the opposite sofa.
“Sister Yan… I… I still have to go first…” Lin Zhiyun couldn’t stand the tense atmosphere. She stood up and said carefully.
“You… what should I say about you…” When Chen Mengyan looked at Lin Zhiyun’s pitiful look, she was angry and amused at the same time. “You’re really weaker than Sister Lin in the Dream of Red Mansions. You will be bullied by Yang Ming in the future!”
“Sister Yan… I’m sorry…” Lin Zhiyun saw Chen Mengyan was angry and quickly apologized.
“Forget it. I’m not going to care about you. Just get bullied. It is your wish anyway… This way I look more like a villain instead…” Chen Mengyan said helplessly, “Let’s go together. Get Yang Ming to take you back later! It is so late. Even if he is alright with it, I’m not at ease.”
Yang Ming found it amusing deep in his heart. Chen Mengyan was the one who stood up for Lin Zhiyun! In other words, Chen Mengyan vented her anger on Yang Ming because of Lin Zhiyun’s affair… It was not strange because Lin Zhiyun was actually the victim of the conflict between Yang Ming and Wang Zhitao. The conflict with Wang Zhitao was due to Chen Mengyan. So, even if Chen Mengyan was angry, it was impossible to vent against Lin Zhiyun.
With Chen Mengyan’s character, she would most likely be sympathetic toward Lin Zhiyun. Chen Mengyan was such a person. She had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Before Chen Mengyan met Lin Zhiyun, she was disgusted with Lin Zhiyun. When she actually met Lin Zhiyun, she began to feel sympathy.
Moreover, Lin Zhiyun called Chen Mengyan as Sister Yan. Most probably, Chen Mengyan had already acquiesced about Lin Zhiyun’s existence. In fact, according to the timeline, Lin Zhiyun was the first woman in the true sense of Yang Ming. Strictly speaking, Lin Zhiyun also had the opportunity to compete to be the main wife, but she didn’t care about this. Yang Ming was happy to see it.
Originally, Chen Mengyan also wanted to take the opportunity to intimidate Yang Ming. She wanted to check if Yang Ming still had anything hiding from her. However, Lin Zhiyun had spoiled it. She couldn’t ask anything, so she had to give up.
The three went downstairs to the parking lot. There was only one front passenger seat. If Chen Mengyan or Lin Zhiyun was alone with Yang Ming, they would sit at the front passenger seat. But both of them were present at the same time, and neither of them took the initiative to take the front passenger seat. They all sat in the back.
In the car journey, Yang Ming drove carefully and didn’t dare to say anything. Yang Ming was also quite puzzled. How did Chen Mengyan suddenly appear in Tavern Heaven on Earth? She just witnessed Yang Ming and Lin Zhiyun go to reserve a hotel room. But, these words couldn’t be asked at this moment. Yang Ming could only wait for a chance in the future.
Taking Lin Zhiyun back to her door, Yang Ming didn’t dare to go back with Lin Zhiyun. Outside the car, Yang Ming just asked Lin Zhiyun to rest well and don’t think too much. Lin Zhiyun only smiled bashfully. She whispered to Yang Ming, “Sister Yan is very kind. She isn’t really angry. You have to deal with her carefully later on…”
Yang Ming was delighted. It seemed that Lin Zhiyun was destined to be unable to form an alliance with Chen Mengyan to punish Yang Ming.
Looking at Lin Zhiyun walk for a distance, Yang Ming returned to the car and carefully said to Chen Mengyan who was sitting behind, “Dear, do you want to sit in front?”
“No.” Chen Mengyan shook her head firmly.
Yang Ming sighed. He didn’t push it. He started the car and said, “That is fine. Where are we going now?”
“…” Chen Mengyan didn’t speak, but she leaned on one side and looked outside the window in a dazed expression.
Yang Ming didn’t know what to do. He had to first drive the car into the city, aimlessly around. His heart was in a mess as well. Some things were involuntary, but this couldn’t be a reason to run away. In regard to this matter, Yang Ming had to find a way to solve it. Based on the situation right now, the ending was quite fine. However, Yang Ming also knew that no matter how good and tolerant Chen Mengyan was, she would be angry anyhow… Who would be willing to give half of their own things to others? What’s more, love is something that couldn’t be calculated…
In the starry nightlife of Song Jiang, although it wasn’t as prosperous as the provincial capital, there were still many restaurants opened at this time. With this view, Yang Ming couldn’t help but feel hungry. However, Yang Ming couldn’t speak it out so he had to endure.
“Stop the car!” Chen Mengyan suddenly opened up her mouth and yelled at Yang Ming.
“Ah?” Yang Ming was shocked. He quickly stopped the car by the side of the road. He didn’t know what Chen Mengyan was going to do.
Chen Mengyan slammed the back door and got out. Yang Ming was shocked and thought that Chen Mengyan was going to run away. He was about to stop the car engine and catch up, but Chen Mengyan opened the front passenger’s door and got in. Before Yang Ming could react, Chen Mengyan rushed into Yang Ming’s embrace.
“Why… why are you so fickle in relationships…?” Chen Mengyan clung to Yang Ming with tears flowing down. “What should I do…? I don’t know what I should do… You have other women and yet I can only accept it with a smile…”
Yang Ming heard Chen Mengyan’s sorrowful voice. He understood it deep down his heart. Which woman would be happy if she encountered such a thing? Although Chen Mengyan was generous in front of Lin Zhiyun, it was totally against her heart. She didn’t know how to deal with it.
Yang Ming made a mistake, and Chen Mengyan also had to face it together. For Lin Zhiyun, an innocent girl, Chen Mengyan found it hard to harden her heart and accuse Lin Zhiyun.
Yang Ming held Chen Mengyan’s soft and delicate body. He didn’t feel comfortable deep down in his heart. He gently patted Chen Mengyan’s back. He didn’t know what to say to comfort her.
“A woman’s heart is quite easily filled by a man… I don’t want to lose you… So I can only choose to accept it…” Chen Mengyan said, aggrieved.
Yang Ming didn’t want to apologize anyway, because it was unnecessary. What was the use of an apology? Yang Ming just held Chen Mengyan quietly, listening to her words.
After a while, Chen Mengyan separated from Yang Ming’s body. She pulled out two tissues from the car and wiped her tears. She smiled, “I feel much better after complaining… Thanks to my youth, I don’t need makeup or else my crying will ruin my makeup…”
Yang Ming didn’t say anything, but he looked at Chen Mengyan with deep affection. This girl who was somewhat self-willed and proud made such a big change for himself. If it was half a year ago, Yang Ming wouldn’t have believed that these words would come from Chen Mengyan’s mouth no matter what.
Just a month ago, without Zhao Ying’s and Zhou Jiaji’s incidents, Chen Mengyan still wouldn’t have compromised so easily, but now…
Although this was happy news, Yang Ming wasn’t happy at all. On the contrary, Yang Ming still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
This was a girl who Yang Ming would love and care for a lifetime. If… there was a next life, or if time could reverse and Yang Ming didn’t get any of these abilities, Yang Ming had hoped to stay with her for the rest of his life… but now…
“Why are you staring at me? Drive!” When Chen Mengyan noticed Yang Ming staring at her, she felt shy.
“Where are we heading?” asked Yang Ming.
“Tavern Heaven on Earth…” Chen Mengyan whispered…
