118: Chapter 118: Who to Support 118: Chapter 118: Who to Support Ye Shikai planned to take Li Mengmeng home first, partly because he was concerned about her safety, and partly because the bar was close to Mrs.
Driving Han Ruoyao’s Bentley at high speed, Ye Shikai often wondered why Han Ruoyao, who looked somewhat like a Lolita, chose such a domineering car.
Could it be that her heart was really that wild?
“Mengmeng, were you really friends with my brother-in-law before?” In the car, Su Ziqing asked Li Mengmeng somewhat unwillingly, hoping to get some information from her.
“Yes, Kai and I used to be neighbors.” Li Mengmeng nodded.
“Qingqing, you said Kai is your brother-in-law, can you take me to meet your sister?”
“Sure, my sister is the president of Tianya Group, you can come to Tianya Group to find her.” Su Ziqing said, startling Li Mengmeng.
She hadn’t expected that her wife would be the president of Tianya Group.
Tianya Group was a goal for Li Mengmeng, and she was thrilled to learn she worked there, but she hadn’t expected her wife to be the president.
“Kai, is that true?” Li Mengmeng looked anxiously at him for confirmation.
“Yes, the president of Tianya Group, Su Qingyu, is my wife,” Ye Shikai admitted.
He hadn’t wanted to reveal this so soon, but since Su Ziqing had mentioned it, he couldn’t deny it.
“I’m so jealous,” Li Mengmeng said with a smile, but Ye Shikai could tell it was a forced smile.
He knew what Li Mengmeng thought.
She didn’t know about his Netherworld King identity.
In her eyes, he was just a retired soldier, a common man.
In the urban society of Yanjing, marrying a wealthy woman could save him twenty years of struggle, something Li Mengmeng couldn’t offer.
She loved him dearly and would let go without hesitation if it meant a better material life for him.
Su Ziqing didn’t notice Li Mengmeng’s expression, but Han Ruoyao caught it sharply.
At that moment, Han Ruoyao was sure that Li Mengmeng was secretly in love with her.
Li Mengmeng looked upset, realizing she had no competing capital when she learned Su Qingyu was a corporate president.
“Qingqing, Yaoyao, Mengmeng is a student at Beitian University, just like both of you, also a university student.
If you have any difficulties in your studies, you can discuss them with each other.”
“What, Mengmeng, are you a student at Beitian University?” The two girls suddenly became excited after hearing this.
“Yes,” Li Mengmeng nodded in response.
“We are from Yanjing University, and there’s a debate competition between the two universities next week.
Did you know?” Su Ziqing asked.
“I know, I’m even going to represent our school,” Li Mengmeng replied.
“Qingqing, what about you?
Are you in your school’s debate team as well?” Ye Shikai asked with a smile.
“Of course, I’m the number one on the debate team.
With my unbeatable eloquence, I’m invincible across the campus,” Su Ziqing said proudly, causing Ye Shikai to frown.
With her personality, ‘unbeatable eloquence’ seemed more like bickering.
He had a deep understanding of this.
When he first met her, he almost got into trouble with Su Qingyu because of Su Ziqing.
But then again, since Su Ziqing was part of the Yanjing University debate team, it meant she was capable, otherwise how could she have made it.
“Then we’ll be competing next week,” Li Mengmeng said with a laugh, unintentionally grasping her hand.
“Mengmeng, even though you’re my brother-in-law’s friend, I won’t go easy on you,” Su Ziqing pouted.
“That’s for sure, you have to give your hundred percent in a competition, Qingqing, I look forward to your performance,” Li Mengmeng said.
The tone of the two contrasted, with Li Mengmeng appearing mature and generous while Su Ziqing seemed more childlike.
At this moment, both girls’ glances turned towards him simultaneously, with a hint of chill, and Ye Shikai began to feel a bit uneasy.
What were they planning…
“Sister-in-law, you’ll definitely come to cheer me on, right?” Suddenly, Su Ziqing grabbed his arm forcefully, startling Ye Shikai who was focused on driving.
“Qingqing, let go of my hand first.” As he had thought, a fight between two women only hurt him in the end.
“Kai, I believe you’ll come to support me, right?” Li Mengmeng also wouldn’t give in, firmly holding his hand, her tender gaze making it hard for him to refuse.
“Sister-in-law, if you don’t come to cheer for me, you’re done for,” Su Ziqing switched to tough tactics, even threatening him.
Had she forgotten about the incident in the bar earlier where she tried to threaten him, and he caught her in her own game?
“Uh, can I remain neutral?” Ye Shikai pondered for a while, unsure who to refuse.
Both women said in unison, making him realize he was in trouble.
Han Ruoyao watched like a spectator enjoying a show, looking at his helpless expression and even gloating with laughter.
“Mengmeng, we’ve arrived at your house, let me take you upstairs.” Unknowingly, Ye Shikai had already arrived at the building’s entrance, and he parked the car steadily, “Qingqing, Yaoyao, wait in the car for a bit.”
Ye Shikai and Li Mengmeng went upstairs, leaving the two women in the car.
“Qingqing, who do you think uncle will support?” Han Ruoyao asked with a mischievous smile.
“Cut it out, it must be me.
How could my brother-in-law’s arm bend outward?” Su Ziqing said confidently.
But I feel he’ll go help Mengmeng.”
“That’s not possible.
I trust my brother-in-law,” Su Ziqing said, full of disbelief.
How about we make a bet?
I bet he’ll go help Mengmeng.”
