The daughter of Fang Zhong's hope

  Judging from her tone, it seemed like she knew Ge Fei, uh... no, it was Xu Shiwei. A hint of confusion flashed across Ge Fei's eyes before he exclaimed in surprise: "You're He Mengyan?"

  "You... how did you end up here?" The girl didn't answer, but instead asked back. Although she didn't answer, her reaction already told us that it was He Mengyan.

  My memory isn't particularly good, but I still remember her. It's probably because of the ambiguous words she said to Ge Fei that day, which left a deep impression on me. No wonder I find that girl's voice so familiar.

  "Uh, the cat we brought ran in." Ge Fei replied with an unchanged expression, and as he spoke, he touched the ring that was emitting a green glow. The green light gradually faded away, and the ring returned to its usual appearance.

  Ge Fei had just finished speaking, when the madly barking dog ran to the door and howled. He was fiercely pounding on the door while howling: "Miss Sun, Miss Sun... Miss Sun, what's wrong?"

  "Oh, it's nothing, just a cockroach." He Mengyan let out his voice and responded loudly.

  Gou Sheng'er was very attentive to He Mengyan. He shouted: "Miss Sun, are you okay? Do you want to come in and catch the cockroach?"

  "Uh... never mind, I've already stepped on it. I... I'm going to take a bath, it's fine, you can go down first." He Mengyan's ladylike demeanor was perfectly in place.

  Gou Sheng'er is also a thorough sycophant, although I couldn't see his appearance, but just by listening to his voice, I could imagine that he must be fawning and obsequious: "That Gou Sheng'er went down first."

  As the sound of Dog Remaining's footsteps faded away, He Mengyan finally came out from inside, still wrapped in her quilt. Her face flushed and ears red, she glanced at Ge Fei, casually picked up her skirt, and after a while, she carefully came out.

  He Mengyan is the type of BOBO head, big eyes, and slightly sharp facial features. Judging from her height, she's at least over 1.7 meters tall, a complete queen-like demeanor that makes people feel inexplicably oppressed.

  "Shì wéi, how did you end up here?" She completely ignored me and asked Ge Fei with a warm gaze.

  Ge Fei was also a master of lying, he smiled awkwardly and looked at me, then explained to He Mengyan: "Today she came with me to see Old Man Fang, she insisted on bringing the cat, but as soon as we entered the door, the cat disappeared. We searched for it frantically, and... I'm really sorry."

  What's with him bringing up the cat? I don't even like cats, and I wasn't too fond of raising small animals to begin with, except for a few that I particularly liked. He talks as if I'm looking for trouble on purpose.

  He Mengyan glanced at me slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes looked warmly at Ge Fei, pretending to be forgetful: "This is..."

  I'm sure she's doing it on purpose, no matter how she pretends, but a person's eyes can't be deceived. Just like those aging female stars, no matter how young they look on the outside, their eyes are a dead giveaway.

  "Uh, Lin Sijia, my girlfriend." Ge Fei said it very naturally.

  He Mengyan smiled and nodded, with a pleasant expression on her face. She stretched out her hand to me and said: "I'm He Mengyan, I was a university classmate of Shi Wei's, we've known each other for almost five or six years now."

  I'm deeply puzzled, are all of Ge Fei's university classmates this incredible? Just a few days ago I saw her and even deeply offended her, yet she still looks like this. If she spoke to me with ill intentions, I wouldn't think much of it, but instead, this makes me feel like there's something more.

  There's a saying that goes, "A dog that bites doesn't bark, and a barking dog won't bite." This analogy might be a bit crude, but it's really true. Based on my intuition as a woman, I think she must have something going on with Ge Fei, even though he seems completely carefree right now. Hehe, we've known each other for five or six years, and I've known him for ten years, but he's never been so arrogant.

  "Alright, since she's pretending, I'll pretend too. I smiled with a pleasant expression: 'Hello.'"

  It's probably because I'm too gentle, Ge Fei looked at me with a strange gaze, as if he was looking at a rare animal.

  However, he was also one of the few polite ones. When speaking, he had a gentle and elegant demeanor. In a soft voice, he asked He Mengyan: "By the way, what are you doing here? I just heard Dog Leftover calling you Miss Sun?"

  He Mengyan smiled and said: "The Fang Lao Yezi you mentioned is actually my maternal grandfather."

  Grandfather! Could it be that He Mengyan is Fang Zhiwan's daughter? If not, does Old Man Fang have another daughter? I suspected He Mengyan was Fang Zhiwan's daughter mainly because He Mengyan has the surname He, and He Yichu also has the surname He. Currently, all I know is that Fang Zhiwan likes He Yichu.

  I stole a glance at Ge Fei, and a flash of cold light flickered in his eyes, gone in an instant. He calmly chatted with He Mengyan: "Huh, you rarely come back, no wonder I've never heard Old Man Fang mention you."

  "Uh-huh, back then my mom and dad... eloped." He Mengyan's cheeks turned slightly red, seemingly finding it hard to speak, let out a long sigh, with a hint of bitter smile: "So, I never came back. If not for being forced to, I wouldn't have come back either. After all, neither Mom nor I had the face to see Grandpa."

  Run away! Could it be that this He Mengyan is really Fang Zhiteng's daughter? She hadn't come back before, how did she suddenly return now? And what does she mean by "having no choice"? Of course, I couldn't ask her these questions.

  Looking at her gloomy face, Ge Fei hastily comforted: "Actually, Old Master Fang has been regretful all these years. You can come back, I think he must be very happy. If your mother comes back, I think he won't blame her either."

  "Maybe." He Mengyan's smile was quite bitter, making people involuntarily feel heartache, especially men. Although she was quite tall, her appearance was indeed goddess-like.

  As expected, Ge Fei became more diligent and repeatedly comforted: "Don't think too much about it, since you're back, whatever happens will happen, right... long-distance running female athlete."

  Listening to him, I felt a surge of indignation in my heart. Just now he said I was his girlfriend and this morning he said he wanted to start anew with me, but now seeing the beautiful woman being sad, he changed his tune. What a hypocrite! Seeing how gentle he is towards He Mengyan, that flame of anger in me burns even higher.

  I didn't want to get angry with him, but I couldn't help it. Compared to five years ago, my feelings for him haven't decreased at all, maybe even more so. No way, I mustn't get angry now, or Ge Fei will definitely think I'm a shrew. Even if I wasn't exactly a good girl in the past and just burst in without any image earlier, no matter what, I still can't show a jealous face in front of He Mengyan now, let alone give Ge Fei a chance to mock me.

  So I maintained a elegant smile, the little bird leaned against Ge Fei's arm, accompanied by sticky sweat, my palm tightly attached to his skin. Ge Fei also smiled elegantly and comforted He Mengyan, who had a sad face: "Don't be so gloomy, long-distance running girl."

  He Mengyan revealed a shy smile and nodded: "Uh-huh."

  "Hey, Ge Fei, isn't our cat supposed to be here?" I pulled on Ge Fei's sleeve, deliberately putting on a spoiled little girl act.

  Ge Fei hesitated for a moment, pretending to have just reacted, and smiled at He Mengyan: "Then we'll leave first, today is really embarrassing."

  He Mengyan also smiled and waved his hand generously: "What's the relationship between us, what's good or bad, it doesn't matter, you guys go find him quickly."

  "I suspect that... thing... in her room, might be related to her." I said, staring at the Ling Kong ring on Ge Fei's hand after leaving Fang's house.

  Ge Fei looked me up and down for a long time, somewhat unhappily saying: "He Mengyan is just an ordinary person, even if she went in the direction of her room, it doesn't mean she has a relationship with her. I think you have a problem with her."

  Seeing him being so protective of He Mengyan, I got annoyed and coldly snorted: "How can it be nothing? I think you like her! Hmph!"

  "I just like her, what's wrong with that?" Ge Fei said without any concealment.
