Reborn Scholar

Chapter 78

Before Meng Shi could figure it out, Han Cheng had already left in a hurry.

Meng Shi really couldn't figure it out, when did Grandpa Han agree?

Han Cheng never told her?

It's not that Han Cheng lied to her, but she was wondering.

Because since she agreed to Han Cheng, the two of them never mentioned meeting their parents at all, not at all.

In addition, she is also young, and she is not in a hurry to see her parents at all now, so the two of them did not mention it in a tacit understanding.

Meng Shi didn't think that Han Cheng went to find the old man in advance at a certain time.

So if it wasn't after the two dated, it could only be...before?
Meng Shi couldn't help but widen his eyes. How is this possible?

It was a very sudden thing for Han Cheng to express his heart to her, without any transition in between!
Meng Shi was a little confused. Could it be that what she thought, the reason why Han Cheng made a sudden move was because of what the old man said?
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, because it's really weird and completely hard to believe.

After breakfast, after thinking about it, Meng Shi decided not to call Han Cheng for the time being.

Han Cheng didn't know that Zhuang Lan had already come to see her, and now that he was calling, Zhuang Lan might think what he would think, although she didn't really care about Zhuang Lan's thoughts.

But no matter how you say it, as long as Han Cheng is Zhuang Lan's son, she has to pass this test.

Of course, she has her own way, not because she doesn't want Han Cheng to solve it, but because she has a better way to solve it.

It would be very easy for Han Cheng to solve the problem between her and Zhuang Lan. As Han Cheng and Zou Kai saw, they don't need to worry about Zhuang Lan's thoughts at all. As long as the old man agrees, there will be no problem.

But Zhuang Lan will always have a knot in her heart, thinking that she stole Han Cheng, and even instigated Han Cheng not to get close to her mother.

In this way, the contradiction will only deepen step by step, even if it is calm and accepting on the surface, in fact it will not be reconciled.

Meng Shi didn't want to plant a mine in his marriage.

So no matter what Han Cheng did, she had to solve Zhuang Lan's matter by herself.

While having breakfast, Han Cheng called.

Meng Shi hurriedly asked, "How is Auntie?"

"It's nothing serious, I just have to stay in bed for a week. Don't worry, have you eaten yet?" Han Cheng's voice was very low, and there were occasional voices from hospital nurses.

"Eating, how about you?"

"Auntie will bring food later. Shishi, I'll go find you later."

"Ah."

Around ten o'clock, Meng Shi received a call from Zou Jun.

"Shishi, come and eat some snacks. The snack street you mentioned to my brother last time was made in the mall, and it's trial opening today. The environment here is much cleaner, so you can eat with confidence."

"It's pretty fast. But there should be a lot of people, so I won't go."

"Don't worry, I'm already here. I was just planning to go shopping, but I happened to come across it. Come on, come on, it's boring for me to eat alone. It doesn't matter if there are too many people, just pick the ones you like and send them to the office. ?”

Meng Shi was helpless, but there was nothing wrong with the left and right, so he agreed, "Then just wait a moment, I will be there soon."

Ling Mo went to work, and Meng Shi hadn't got her driver's license yet. Although it wasn't a big deal, she didn't plan to drive without a driver's license.

Privileges and relationships are things that you can use if you can.

Take a taxi to the mall.

Because today is the weekend, the mall has a lot of traffic.

Meng Shi found the floor where the snack street was located, and sure enough, there were many people.

Now people's living conditions have improved, and their requirements for hygiene have gradually increased. The snack street outside is very lively, but some white-collar workers think it is very unclean.But here in the mall, with its transparent operation and clean environment, it is easy to make people feel good at once.

If single men and women go out to eat together, the snack street in the shopping mall is definitely much cleaner than the one outside.Of course, there are many snack streets outside that cannot be replaced by operations in the mall, such as those old shops and old stalls that have sold snacks for decades, etc...

In a word, each takes what it needs, the two complement each other, it is not too serious competition, each has its own customer base.

Meng Shi looked around, but didn't see Zou Jun.

He took out his mobile phone and called Zou Jun.

"Oh, why do you have such a place in this shopping mall? It smells terrible. They also said that this is the biggest and best shopping mall, and the grade is too low." A soft voice.

In fact, when building a snack street, this problem has been fully considered.

So this floor is full of catering, and all kinds of exhaust measures are done very well. The taste of the food here is not too strong, let alone spread to other floors.

Furthermore, the shopping mall is also divided into sections. Only the big shopping mall on the first floor is connected to China Unicom. If you go upstairs, they are basically separated.For example, clothing and home furnishing and the like will definitely not be together with catering and entertainment.

Therefore, if you didn't come here specifically for shopping, or if you didn't come down from the entertainment venues on the upper floor, it would be impossible to come to this floor.

In any case, the pickiness of the speaker is unreasonable.

Meng Shi couldn't help but look over.

And the soft voice sounded again, "I'm in Country M, XX Avenue, where there are all high-end brands, and the environmental services are so good..."

It was a girl in a pink dress, she looked to be in her twenties, youthful and beautiful.

She was holding a man's arm affectionately, carrying an LV bag in her hand, and wearing a pair of wine red fashion sunglasses, which covered most of her face, but made her look very fashionable and famous.A big wavy curly hair, dyed brown, pinned with a diamond hairpin.

Meng Shi stopped, looking calmly at the girl and the man she was holding.

"Hey, Shishi, why don't you talk? Are you here? Where are you? I'll come and find you." The phone was connected at some point, and Zou Jun's voice came from inside.

Meng Shi's eyes still stayed on the couple. After a pause, she said slowly, "Oh, I'm next to the escalator on the dining floor, next to a rice noodle stall."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be right over."

After speaking, Zou Jun hung up the phone.

The girl held the man's arm affectionately, acted like a baby with the man from time to time, pouted and stared, with infinite charm.The man also let her mess around, and would rub her head with a look of connivance.

There was an extremely faint smile on Meng Shi's lips, and he watched them go away.

"Hey, why are you standing here?" Zou Jun jumped on Meng Shi from behind and laughed loudly.

Meng Shi shook his head, "It's nothing. Let's go, can't you wait? See what's delicious."

Zou Jun glanced at Meng Shi, but found nothing wrong, happily went to choose delicious food with Meng Shi.

There are many kinds of snacks, and they chose some of each.

If they had to queue up, they would have to wait for a long time, so after they made their selections, they sent people directly to the office.

"Isn't it too much?" Meng Shi couldn't help frowning when he saw that Zou Jun had chosen a lot.

"Not much, not much, my brother is here today, and we just happened to eat together. The meeting is probably over by now, let's go, let's go up first." Zou Jun said, pulling Meng Shi up to the office .

When he went up, Zou Kai had already finished the meeting and was chatting with Shen Xin, the general manager of Century Mall.

Seeing Meng Shi and Zou Jun coming up together, Shen Xin immediately stood up and greeted him, "President Meng, Miss Zou."

Meng Shi nodded at Shen Xin and smiled.

After a while, all kinds of snacks were brought up.

"I ordered a lot, let's eat together, the two of us definitely can't finish it." Zou Jun pulled Zou Kai and Shen Xin together.

Shen Xin smiled and said, "I still have to go down to have a look, there are still some problems that I need to deal with, please take it easy."

Zou Kai nodded, "Then go get busy and leave us alone. We'll leave after eating."

Meng Shi hadn't eaten snacks with such an open stomach for a long time.

Snacks are delicious, but not too much.She usually pays attention to not being greedy or eating too much.She likes to eat spicy food, and many snacks are indispensable for spicy food, but Meng Shi usually pays attention to it, and there must be an appropriate amount of chili.Because eating too much is not good for the stomach, and it will also dry up and get angry.

In the past, she ate once or twice to satisfy her cravings, but today, she ate a bit too much.

Zou Jun was surprised, "Shishi, don't you rarely eat chili?"

Meng Shi blinked, "If you want to eat, eat as much as you want, lest you still think about it if you don't feel happy."

"That's right. But sometimes you really have double standards. When I took you shopping and took you to eat snacks, you only ate a little bit, at most tasted it, and kept talking to me. This is not good for health, and that is easy to cause cancer, which makes me feel uncomfortable every time I eat it. I was thinking that you are more verbose than my mother. It is healthy to keep your mouth open and shut at a young age. I still I want to never eat with you again! But what's wrong with you today? Suddenly want to go away?"

Zou Jun said a lot.

Meng Shi couldn't help laughing, "Well, in fact, as long as you really want to eat, you will always find all kinds of reasons to let yourself eat. If you don't want to eat, you can find a reason not to eat."

Meng Shi smiled, and ate another bunch of Malatang, simple vegetables, blanched in Malatang sauce, spicy and refreshing, quite delicious.

There are also mutton skewers, fat and thin mutton skewered and grilled, then sprinkled with cumin and chili powder.

Basically, it was Meng Shi and Zou Jun who were eating. Zou Kai ate very little, just drinking tea and occasionally pouring a drink for the two girls.

In summer, eating snacks and drinking iced drinks is definitely a great thing.

Zou Jun couldn't help complaining again, "Shishi, in the past as long as you were here, we would never let us drink cold drinks, beer or anything like that. Why did you relapse yourself today? By the way, what did you say about the theory of traditional Chinese medicine last time?" , doesn’t work now?”

Meng Shi laughed, "The theory is correct. According to traditional Chinese medicine, people's qi and blood go from the inside to the outside, and the qi and blood are all outside, so the inside is empty. At this time, you should eat some mild food instead of Drink some cold drinks. Drink some cold drinks, people feel refreshed, but the body suffers. That’s why there is a saying of eating radishes in winter and ginger in summer.”

"Yo, I haven't forgotten, why didn't you obey today?" Zou Jun laughed.

Meng Shi pursed his lips and smiled, "Only by indulging once in a while can you feel released. It's like me, who has been restrained for so many years, and I will feel very enjoyable if I indulge once in a while today. What about you? You do this almost every day, so you The fun I feel today must not be as much as I am."

Zou Jun was speechless, "You can tell me a reason for this. Hey, why don't we change to beer, this fruit juice is boring. Speaking of which, I haven't seen you drink alcohol yet, why don't you drink it?" Will it be poured in a glass?"

"Junjun, don't mess around, Shishi is still young, what are you drinking?" Zou Kai stopped her.

But Meng Shi thought it was a good idea, "Beer and mutton skewers are a perfect match. Brother Kai made you laugh, and I also feel that my thinking is a bit old-fashioned. Many people say that I am just like an old lady in her decades, angry Not enough. Besides, I'm already planning to indulge myself today, so just leave it alone, okay?"

Zou Kai frowned and nodded, "That's fine, I'll accompany you. But be restrained, don't overdo it..."

"Oh brother, why are you a mother-in-law? You always feel refreshed, and you become a mother-in-law again. I can't bear it. If you have something to do, go to work. I am here all the time. Who dares to do anything to us? You Go get busy, we can't have fun while you're here. Isn't it? Shishi, let's go sing later, have fun if you want!"

"Row."

Zou Kai glanced at Meng Shi again, but he didn't see anything. Another phone call came in. Zou Kai had to leave, so he explained a few more words before getting up and leaving.

After Meng Shi and Zou Jun ate up all kinds of snacks and drank a dozen beers, they moved to the KTV box.

The closest is the best, even if the equipment environment here is not as good as Jinding, it doesn't matter.

Zou Jun was a little dizzy, "Shi Shi, you hold a good amount of alcohol, I thought you were about to down a glass."

Meng Shi laughed, "Look, I drink alcohol on my face, so I never drink alcohol because it doesn't look good. But people in my hometown say that people who drink alcohol on their face can drink it. Some people say that drinking alcohol on their face shows blood The circulation is fast, the alcohol metabolism is fast, and you can drink it naturally. Who knows, anyway, I haven’t been drunk so far.”

"Tch, just brag. I only drank a few bottles of beer, sister, I drank more than a catty of Wuliangye back then, and I was fine!" Zou Jun laughed.

In the KTV box, perhaps it was the effect of alcohol, the two sang and danced very freely.

If you are tired, eat some fruit, and the drink is beer and red wine.

After eating too much and drinking a lot, Meng Shi inevitably had to go to the toilet.

The private rooms here are not like Jinding, they have independent toilets, and they can only go to the public toilets outside.

Meng Shi drank a little too much, and she hadn't drank for a long time, no, it should be said that she hadn't drank alcohol since she was reborn, so although her mind was still clear, her steps were indeed a bit messy.

After washing his face in the bathroom, Meng Shi felt much more awake.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help feeling a little funny, what happened to herself?So abnormal.

As for what!
Meng Shi shook his head and laughed, washed his face again, and then went out, his footsteps were still a little shallow.

It seems that I really drank a little too much tonight, and that's right, the beer alone is nothing, but later mixed with red wine, the energy is even stronger.Stomach is not feeling well, and head hurts a bit.

Meng Shi knew very well that it was because his meal today was very unreasonable.After eating salty, spicy and greasy things, and drinking cold beer and red wine, it's no wonder that my stomach feels comfortable.

Tomorrow I have to eat something light to nourish my stomach.

Coming out of the bathroom, suddenly, a person bumped into him.

Meng Shi staggered and hit the wall, his arm hurt a little.

Her face darkened and she looked over.

The person who bumped into her was a young man in his 20s. He seemed to be drinking too, but he didn't look like he was drunk.

"Sorry miss, I bumped into you, are you okay?" The man walked up with a smile.

Meng Shi's face turned cold. This man probably bumped into her on purpose.

"Apologize." Meng Shi said lightly.

"I'm sorry." The man was obedient.

Meng Shi snorted, didn't bother to care about anything, turned around and left.But the man turned around and stood in front of her.

"Don't rush away, miss, I accidentally bumped into you just now, how about buying a glass of wine to apologize?" The man had an uncomfortable smile on his face.

"Just apologize, nothing else is necessary."

"How can this be done?" The man stretched out his hand to block Meng Shi's way, "I bumped into you, miss, and you bumped into me too. I apologized to you, shouldn't you also apologize to me? But, I don't want to apologize, As long as you have a drink with me."

Meng Shi's eyes turned cold, "What if I don't?"

"It's just a glass of wine. The lady won't be so disrespectful."

"The people who can give me face don't include you." Meng Shi sneered, "Get out of the way."

But the man got angry, and grabbed Meng Shi's wrist directly, "Stinky girl, she's just more beautiful, what arrogance. You have to drink brother's wine today!"

Meng Shiben couldn't stand firmly, and when the man grabbed her like this, she fell directly towards him.

In order not to let himself fall on top of this disgusting man, Meng Shi reached out and grabbed a pot of money tree in the corridor!

The main pole of the fortune tree was very thick, and when Meng Shi pulled it, the entire fortune tree fell straight upside down.

Meng Shi's body was slightly wrong, but he couldn't keep his balance.

"Whoa!"

In the next second, both Meng Shi and the man fell to the ground due to an unsteady center of gravity, as did the fortune tree. Meng Shi grabbed a lot of branches and leaves, and the porcelain pot underneath was also broken!
The place was in a mess, and many people surrounded it.

Meng Shi sat on the ground, couldn't get up for a while, there was nothing she could do, her body hadn't been exposed to alcohol for a long time, and now she was full of alcohol, and she couldn't control it. Although her mind was clear, she couldn't control her body at all. Body.

Meng Shi couldn't help being a little annoyed that he really deserved it today.No matter what, you shouldn't drink so much alcohol!

Because there were too many people watching, the man's face was very ugly, probably because he was ashamed, the man was very angry, and he always thought that the people watching were laughing at him.

In anger, the man stretched out his hand and slapped Meng Shi's face.

Just then, "Bang"!
Meng Shi was surprised to find that a boy came out from nowhere and knocked the man to the ground with a punch.

"What kind of man is bullying a woman?"

The boy kicked the man again, then squatted down and looked at Meng Shi, "Sister, are you alright?"

Meng Shi looked at the boy in front of him in a daze. He was a very clean boy. He was young and looked like a college student. Moreover, he called her Senior Sister.

"You know me?" Meng Shi blinked.

The boy helped Meng Shi up and said with a smile, "Senior sister, I am a junior who is one year lower than you. My name is Jin Rong. Jin Ming is my cousin."

Meng Shi snorted.Jin Ming is the chairman of the student union, and this Jin Rong is his cousin, so it's not too unusual to know her.

"Thank you, I'm fine." After Meng Shi stood up, he didn't let Jin Rong touch him again.But Jin Rong was obviously worried, worried that she would fall down again, and his hands were still supporting her.

And the man who was knocked down by Jin Rong just stood up covering his mouth, "Are you looking for trouble?"

However, before the man started to take revenge, the person in charge of KTV hurried over.

"Young Master Liu, are you okay?" The person in charge immediately asked in surprise when he saw the man.

That man, that is, Young Master Liu, sneered, "You guys are all fighting here, I think it's only a few days before closing down! Hmph."

The person in charge's face changed, "Young Master Liu, please forgive me, I don't know what's going on."

Immediately afterwards, the person in charge turned to look at Meng Shi.

Glancing at Meng Shi, the person in charge turned his head with some doubts and continued to comfort Liu Shao.

But soon, the person in charge's voice stopped abruptly, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Meng Shi, with disbelief in his eyes!
Liu Shao was already impatient, "Tell me, how to deal with this matter."

The person in charge ignored Liu Shao, but walked up to Meng Shi respectfully, "Are you...Mr. Meng?"

Meng Shi raised his eyebrows, "You know me?"

"Yes." The person in charge was dripping with sweat.

Just kidding, this Boss Meng has been taken care of by General Manager Shen Xin Shen, and the people in charge of all departments of the mall must remember her face clearly, and they must not neglect her.

It's just that Mr. Meng rarely appeared in the mall, and he didn't even recognize him just now.

Seeing the attitude of the person in charge, Liu Shao's expression turned ugly.

Meng Shi didn't care that much, "The surveillance in the corridor should be normal, right? Pull out the video and show it to Young Master Liu. I reserve the right to pursue it."

After finishing speaking, Meng Shi turned around to leave.

That Young Master Liu refused to accept, but was held back by the person in charge, who didn't let him go forward, and he didn't know what the person in charge said to Young Master Liu, so that Young Master Liu's expression became ugly.

It's not that Meng Shi doesn't want to care about it, but her stomach is very uncomfortable, and it's very uncomfortable.She didn't have the strength to pursue it right now, so she wanted to go home, take a shower and sleep.

Jin Rong followed Meng Shi, "Sister, which box are you going to, I'll take you there?"

"Thank you, I'm fine, I can go there by myself. You still have companions, go quickly."

"It's okay, senior. My friends are all gone, and I plan to leave too. I don't want to run into senior. I'll take you there. Why did senior drink so much?" Jin Rong laughed.

Meng Shi felt sick to his stomach and didn't want to talk, so he waved his hand, ignored Jin Rong, and went straight to Zou Jun's box.

But she never thought that Zou Jun would fall asleep when she went to the toilet.

Meng Shi was a little speechless, so he called Tong Yan and asked Tong Yan to take Zou Jun home.Unexpectedly, Tong Yan was out of town, so Meng Shi simply didn't mention it.

Then, she wanted to call Han Cheng, but after thinking about it, she called Zou Kai.

Soon, Zou Kai came over.

Obviously, after Zou Kai entered the mall, someone told him what happened.

Zou Kai's face was ugly.

In the private room, Zou Kai was so angry when he saw Zou Jun who was fast asleep and Meng Shi who was sleepy on the sofa!
"Who are you?" Zou Kai looked at Jin Rong with cold eyes and asked after carefully checking that there was nothing unusual about Zou Jun and Meng Shi.

Jin Rong smiled, "I'm Senior Sister Meng's junior. When Senior Sister was planning an event in the student union last time, I happened to be there, so I met her."

Zou Kai already knew that there was a big boy who helped Meng Shi just now, and now he was a match.

Zou Kai nodded, "Thank you, you go back first, I'll be fine here."

Jin Rong shook his head, "I'm sorry, I don't know you, I can't entrust my senior and her friends to you."

Meng Shi didn't fall asleep at all, but he was a little confused and too sleepy.

She opened her eyes, but the side effect of alcohol was that her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, and she couldn't see clearly.

"Brother Kai?" Meng Shi whispered.

Zou Kai came over and patted Meng Shi's head, his expression was ugly, "Why are you drinking so much wine for no reason?"

Meng Shi smiled, "It's okay, I had fun with Sister Junjun, and I accidentally drank too much. It's nothing. But Sister Junjun fell asleep, so it's fine if you come, take her home Right. I'm going back too."

"Sister, I'll see you off." Jin Rong said quickly.

Zou Kai didn't even look at Jin Rong, and directly grabbed Meng Shi who was about to stand up, "Did you call Chengzi?"

Meng Shi shook his head, "His mother is sick and hospitalized, and he is taking care of her. It's fine. I'll take a taxi back, and it's not far away."

Zou Kai refused without hesitation, "No, just wait."

Soon, Zou Kai made a phone call.

"Let my driver go back from Junjun, and I will take you back. I don't worry about you alone."

Just as Meng Shi was about to refuse, Jin Rong volunteered again, "Senior sister, let me take you back. I just happen to be going back to the school dormitory, so drop by."

Zou Kai turned to look at Jin Rong, "Thank you for what happened tonight, but I can just send my sister to me. Thank you."

Meng Shi also said, "Thank you, junior, you should go back too."

Jin Rong was very disappointed, but he also knew that he couldn't say anything more.

Although Meng Shi's footsteps were flimsy, walking was not a problem.Rejecting Zou Kai's kindness to help her, he followed Zou Kai out.

Zou Jun was taken home by the old driver of the Zou family, don't worry.

Zou Kai drove Meng Shi back.

She was also sleepy at first, and she fell asleep after getting in the car with the wind blowing.

When the car arrived at the downstairs of Jinhua Apartment, Zou Kai looked at the little girl who was sleeping soundly in the passenger seat, couldn't help getting out of the car, leaned on the car and lit a cigarette, with an inexplicable expression on his face.
