Chapter 462: This Is Beyond Me

[Don’t dwell on the previous chapter. It would’ve been bad if I hadn’t changed it, but If I had changed it, I’d have to respond to it. It’s so hard I could cry.]
“Wang ‘er, you stood up pretty well to He Meng, didn’t you?”
“Yes, yes.”
“But on the inside, you’re as excited as a copulating deer couple, aren’t you?”
“No.”
“But I advise you not to think too much. You won’t be able to handle He Meng… Even if the unthinkable were to happen, her parents are both fierce people. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
“Oh, oh.”
Gu Jiashu pulled at Wang Yan and kept nagging at him while he was still in a daze. A question kept echoing in his mind.
How could it be her?!
Strictly speaking, her help hadn’t been really significant when he was selling the melons.
Even if he couldn’t sell the melons, Wang Yan would still be a tycoon. He would still have endless money to spend and endless luck with women.
As for the [Habit Incubator], there was still a week’s time. Regardless of whether he stole or borrowed it, he would definitely get it.
That help did not seem to have any decisive significance. It was not even as big of an impact as the crab claws on Wang Yan.
However, that debt couldn’t be calculated in this way.
Whether it was to scam a loan or to sell a watermelon, the important thing was not money, but the form of training.
It was a promotion ceremony that prompted the growth and evolution of Loser Wang.
If he had worked hard but failed, the impact would have been fairly huge.
Perhaps it would have made Wang Yan completely give up the part of him that focused on being self-reliant and hardworking, and only rely on earning fixed wages to survive.
From this point of view, she was Wang Yan’s benefactor. Together with the Chief of security, she brought Wang Yan an immense amount of positive energy, as well as a sunshine mindset that made him willing to help others.
He owed her a favor, so he had to pay her back.
However, she wasn’t short of money, so just thinking about it made him feel annoyed.
Moreover, her silent help also made Wang Yan sense another side of her hidden behind her proud appearance.
She was a little soft-hearted and kind…
Even today when she realized that I no longer had any love for her, and even had some opinions, she still didn’t take out that matter to cause trouble…
Damn, what’re you even acting proud for?!
I really can’t stand rich girls like you who pretend to be unhappy!
Can’t you learn from Ye Ziwen?
To dare to love and love, and to just go for it whenever you want, how great would that be!
It had been a long time since Wang Yan was so troubled, proving that he was still a youth who wasn’t even 20 years old yet.
However, Wang wasn’t an ordinary youth after all. After hesitating for half a minute, he resolutely threw the matter to the back of his head — Freak this, do whatever you want, we’ll talk when we meet again!
He went upstairs to mingle with everyone, and was already looking like usual.
“Wang Yan, come, come, let’s play Golden Flower!”
“Okay, how big is the game?”
“Five dollars at the bottom capped at 50. Don’t mind that it’s too small!”
Huh?
Five dollars at the bottom and about 10 people at the top of the golden flower. A hand of cards would require at least 100 dollars to follow through to the end. Losing 5,000 dollars might not even be enough.
To Rich Wang, of course, it was nothing. He would definitely be too lazy to pick up the cards as they fell to the ground.
But the others were different.
Everyone was just a freshman. Losing 5,000 yuan for a middle-class family was already hard enough, not to mention Zhang Yin and the other destitute people.
Wang Yan looked around and found that there were really a few sand sculptures with empty faces, the kind that were trying hard not to be a spoilsport.
So he decisively shook his head and gently advised, “We’re all classmates, what’s the point of playing so big? One or two dollars would be pretty good as entertainment…”
A few classmates were overjoyed. Just as they were about to agree, Gu Jiashu spoke up first.
“How boring is that! Now that I’m taking care of our classmates, when have I ever carried around notes with a denomination lower than 100? We won’t be able to play if it gets any lower than this!”
Gu Jia Shu had spent at least 30,000 to 50,000 yuan treating them to meals and rooms, so it was hard for everyone to refute him. In addition, he had the support of a few classmates who were well-to-do, so in the end, this was the only way.
“Alright then, let’s focus on entertainment. Don’t hurt the peace.”
Wang Yan nodded and sat in front of the big coffee table indifferently.
There was nothing worth mentioning about the following events. Even if the bet were to increase by 2,000 times, it was still not worth Wang Yan getting serious about.
In fact, it was just a game of playing and chatting.
Wang Yan’s cards were pretty good, but not only did he not win, he became the biggest loser on the field.
After seeing who had lost more, he would take the initiative to send aid over.
No one was stupid. Later, the students were embarrassed to take advantage of Wang Yan again, so they took the initiative to kick him off the field and fought amongst themselves for a while.
In the end, basically everyone won a little, and Young Master Wang paid for the whole field.
“Brother Wang, you’re too particular!”
“Yeah, Rich Wang isn’t willing to bully us poor idiots. We should just be grateful!”
“Thank you, Papa Wang, for the big new year’s packet!”
After a round of laughter, the young master’s prestige shot up. Many students began to sincerely believe that Wang Yan was fair, trustworthy and reliable.
The young master didn’t bother to respond and just laughed it off.
After that, it was obvious that when Wang Yan occasionally opened his mouth, his suggestions and opinions had more impact now. Everyone was willing to follow what he said.
It was not just for the boys, but for the girls as well.
Gu Jiashu simply had had enough.
I was clearly the one who had arranged the party, and I was the one who had paid for it, yet you guys are treating Dog Wang as your big brother?
There was no justice in this!
Actually, Wang Yan was not deliberately trying to win over other people’s hearts. There was no need. What could those students do to help?
It was just an empathetic and kind heart which was unexpectedly acknowledged by everyone.
In modern society, the symbol of a person’s social death was the loss of credibility, such as those drug and gambling addicts, privileged anti-motherland giant babies, and so on.
On the contrary, a good name when publicly recognized as having a good reputation, was a valuable asset.
The elderly often said that “Suffering a loss is a blessing”, but in fact, it was an honest way to accumulate reputation. It was slightly stupid, but it was never wrong.
…
Going back to four hours ago.
He Meng returned to Xiangshanyuan Villa and took the underground elevator to the main hall. Her mother was about to go out.
“Mengmeng, have you finished your meal? How was the party?”
“It was alright.”
“Seeing that you’re not in a good mood, does that mean that it wasn’t good?”
“Not really.”
“That child from the Gu’s looks like a good-for-nothing. In the future, don’t go to any more parties. You’ll only cause trouble for yourself for no reason.”
Cen Ting was in her early 40s. She was mature and beautiful, but she was wearing a dark Chanel high-cut suit. Her serious expression diluted her feminine gentleness and beauty.
When she said this, she appeared particularly forceful.
“I know what I’m doing. Mom, you go and do your work.”
“Okay, I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
Cen Ting turned around and was about to leave, but she suddenly stopped.
“I’ve brought Xiaolu over to my house. She’s peeved with me upstairs. You’re in charge of her meals. The four of us will spend this New Year’s Eve together.”
In the time He Miaomiao was stunned, her mother had already strode into the elevator.
She didn’t have time to ask anymore questions. She rushed to the third floor and pushed open the door to the second bedroom. A little girl was crying on the bed.
He Meng sighed silently. She walked slowly to the bed and sat down. She reached out and gently patted the girl’s back.
“Sister!”
He Xiaolu turned around. Her eyes were swollen like peaches, but there was pleasant surprise in her eyes.
The little fairy hugged He Meng and started crying again.
“Be good, don’t cry anymore. My mom said that the four of us will spend the new year together. Where’s Aunt Xue?”
“Cen Ting chased my mom back to her hometown and didn’t allow me to go back with her. She forced me to spend the new year with her. On what basis?! I don’t want to spend the new year with them! Wuuu… Wah!”
Xiaolu cried very aggrievedly. He Meng knew that this was something her mother could do. She wanted to comfort her, but she didn’t know how to say it.
What a headache!
Why did you forcefully bring Xiaolu back?
He Meng sighed again. “Be good, my mother did something wrong, but I can’t do anything about it… Don’t cry anymore. Just treat it as you’re accompanying me, okay?”
“I don’t want to see them!”
“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll play games with you and take you out for dinner. You won’t have to meet them outside of the New Year’s Eve dinner, okay?”
“Okay…”
Xiaolu nodded her head softly and hugged He Meng with a complicated expression.
He Meng’s expression was also complicated. There was gentleness, but most of it was frustration.
Her mother was too domineering. It could be predicted that this year’s spring celebrations would not go down well.
He Xiaolu was the illegitimate daughter of He Meng’s father, hence her half-sister.
He Meng had never been able to accept the woman named Liu Mengxue. However, she did not have any ill feelings towards Xiaolu. After all those messy matters went down, she actually pitied her even more.
However, the previous mess did not reach this extent.
What was her mother thinking?
Making her custodian position known?
It would be strange if they did not fight!
After thinking for a while, He Meng, who originally did not plan to go out, suddenly changed her mind.
“You have a good meal. Tonight, I will take you out to sing and have a barbecue. Let the two of them quarrel, okay?”
“Really? Okay!”
He Xiaolu got up with a swoosh, her eyes shining.
As long as she wasn’t cooped up in this house, she would be fine no matter where she went.
The little fairy ate her dinner obediently, while the big fairy pressed her aching temples. She wailed in her heart, “This situation is really beyond me. Who can give me some advice?!”
Inexplicably, Wang Yan’s face suddenly appeared in her mind.
