Chapter 14: Pretending to be Yang Ming's Girlfriend
A silver-gray sedan sped towards the five-star hotel in San Diego, racing at an astonishing speed on the street, eight minutes later, just as it was about to cross the elegant gate of the hotel, "squeak" sound, an emergency brake, the tires screeched against the ground, a bit ear-piercing, accompanied by the lingering smoke from the rear of the car...
Ning Meng's hand grasped the handle above, her grip was so tight it hurt, but she finally felt at ease. She glanced sideways at the troublemaker, her small universe about to explode. "Yang Ming, are you tired of living? If you want to die, go ahead, why drag me down with you..."
This guy brought a cool sports car, all the way, the second hand pointer was soaring up, damn it, modern version of "The Bund"...
Yang Ming's thick face was covered with a smile, he bypassed the front and pulled her out of her seat, coaxing her with "big aunt" and "little aunt".
"Don't worry, my driving skills are not bragging!" He raised his wrist to look at it, and without bothering to apologize to a certain someone, he pushed open the bright glass door and rushed towards the entrance, flashing into the coffee shop in an instant.
Ning Meng was still patting her chest, her face a bit pale, still in a state of shock. A few minutes later, she crouched down and hid in another corner of the hall, separated from the coffee shop by a screen. Her big black-and-white eyes darted back and forth, waiting for an opportunity.
Yang Ming looked around and saw two well-dressed women sitting by the window in the coffee shop, opposite them was Third Aunt Shen Wei, and with her back to him was a young and beautiful girl, as he walked closer, he saw that she had long hair down to her waist, a pale and quiet small face, straight bangs, and shallow eyebrows, ... no matter how he looked at her, she resembled Barbie.
As expected, it's just like what Third Aunt likes: family education, upbringing, temperament, and ladylike... Unfortunately, it's not the dish he wants to eat.
Yang Ming tapped his foot and pondered how to end this discordant meeting as soon as possible.
Third Auntie Shen Wei waved her hand and finally smiled as she introduced them, "Mingzi, this is Miss An from the An family, named An Xue, let's get acquainted."
An Xue's eyes lit up suddenly, and she called out with a sweet smile, "Yang Ming, hello."
Yang Ming smiled at her, "An Xue, hello, let's be more casual."
Shen Wei saw the opportunity to retreat and walked out of the door, but still couldn't help turning back frequently... Through the window, the talented man and beautiful woman were laughing and chatting, and indeed they matched well. Ah, it seems that my efforts weren't in vain.
Yang Ming was thinking about how to break the news to An Xue. Although they had never met before, the Yang and An families were considered old acquaintances, and many things that wanted to be hidden couldn't be hidden. To avoid an awkward situation, he kept rambling on.
"Does An Xue like watching horror movies?"
"Horror movies?" An Xue looked at her in surprise, shaking her head firmly. "Those are all too scary, I never watch them."
Yang Ming smiled awkwardly, "I especially like it, and I was going to invite you to watch it together next time."
An Xue regretted speaking too hastily.
Yang Ming brought up a topic, the atmosphere was still quite harmonious, but he didn't forget to remind her to drink water. Finally, An Xue left her seat and headed in the direction of the restroom. Yang Ming quickly took out his phone and sent a text message.
At this time, Ning Meng was in another corner of the hall. She saw the screen flicker and a few words jumped out: "The target is approaching, it's up to you now." She couldn't help but laugh, and before standing up, she didn't forget to apply some powder on her face. Looking at the sparkling eyes in the mirror, she suddenly felt like a special agent about to carry out a special mission, inexplicably thrilling...
In the corridor outside the bathroom, Ning Meng timely blocked An Xue's way, with tears in her eyes and a pitiful look.
"Miss An, wait a minute."
An Xue's footsteps paused, and she suddenly turned around, looking at the pale-faced young woman in front of her with a puzzled expression. Her heart skipped a beat as she asked, "Miss, is there something wrong?"
Ning Meng looked around nervously, her eyes darting back and forth in their sockets, "Miss An, I've been following you from the side... actually, Yang Ming and I have been together for a long time, but his family doesn't agree, and I really can't do anything about it... could you please let him go? You're so well-off, you won't have any trouble finding a rich husband..."
"It's impossible." An Xue looked at her skeptically. "I don't believe it, Shen Aunt clearly said he didn't have a girlfriend."
Ning Meng wiped away tears, "I have no education, no formal job. My family is particularly poor, my father passed away early, my brother is still in school... How could the Yang family look down on me? Ah, a secret love affair is so pathetic, I can't think of any reason to continue!" The words were spoken with such sincerity and emotion that by the end she was choking back sobs.
These words are not all made up by her, and they largely conform to her facts... So the script is a creation that surpasses life, and acting requires personal experience to be realistic.
An Xue's face darkened, gritting her teeth, "How infuriating..."
Ning Meng saw her defense line loosening, and took advantage of the situation to pretend to be weak. "Miss An, actually I'm not worthy of Yang Ming, he didn't do anything wrong, his family didn't do anything wrong either... previously he also mentioned breaking up... but I was hesitant because I already..." She shrugged her shoulders at the right moment and let out a sob, "Anyway, I wasn't planning to tell him anyway."
At this moment, An Xue's face changed greatly, and she said hatefully, "Don't worry, I won't fight with you for him. Later, I'll make it clear to him. As for whether he can change his mind, it depends on your luck..."
