Lu Mingfei squatted down to pick up the phone and then saw the text messages from Chen Wenwen and Zhao Menghua.
The text messages were all from Chen Wenwen asking Zhao Menghua if he still cared about her and if he could understand her recent dreams.
Zhao Menghua was a ruthless man who could turn on you without hesitation. He told her to shut up because he found her annoying.
Chen Wenwen said, "If you find a girlfriend, I will wish you all the best..." Of course, this text message has not been sent yet.
At this moment, Lu Mingfei didn't know how to face Chen Wenwen. Perhaps he should laugh at her and say, "See? You've met a scumbag! If you had been with me, at least I would have been devoted to you."
However, Lu Mingfei is a coward and has no intention of taking revenge on Chen Wenwen. He just feels that Chen Wenwen is too pitiful now.
He can't stand seeing others suffer.
Especially since that person was his first crush.
"stop looking."
Chen Wenwen took the phone back from him, said she was fine, and asked Lu Mingfei not to tell anyone about it.
Lu Mingfei agreed.
When Lu Mingfei returned to the private room, he found that the atmosphere had become lively again.
Only Liu Miaomiao was listlessly playing on her phone, seemingly chatting with someone on QQ.
But when Chen Wenwen and he sat down, the atmosphere among the crowd turned slightly cold.
At that moment, Wang Meimei reached under the table and pinched Zhao Menghua's thigh.
Zhao Menghua glanced at Chen Wenwen and then stood up.
"Everyone, I have an announcement to make." Zhao Menghua said, taking Wang Meimei's fair and delicate hand in his. "Wang Meimei and I are engaged. We'll have our wedding banquet when we reach the legal age, and we hope you'll all come and have a drink with us!"
As he spoke, he took out a designer platinum ring from the jewelry box and slowly put it on Wang Meimei's finger.
The people at the table were taken aback at first, and then Zhao Menghua's underlings started to jeer.
"Congratulations, eldest brother! Congratulations, sister-in-law! May you two be forever united in love and grow old together!"
All sorts of flattery came out in an endless stream, making Zhao Menghua and Wang Meimei beam with joy.
Wang Meimei nestled smugly against Zhao Menghua, like a concubine rising to power in a palace drama, her eyes glancing at Chen Wenwen almost imperceptibly.
Chen Wenwen's eyes were vacant. If Lu Mingfei were to use a metaphor, she was now like the corrupted Saionji Sekai, her eyes having lost their luster.
Zhao Menghua put his arm around Wang Meimei's shoulder and glanced at Chen Wenwen, feeling a sense of satisfaction from his revenge.
You were the one who wanted to break up. Okay, we broke up. Now I've found someone new. Are you satisfied?
Liu Miaomiao clapped her hands twice in agreement, watching everything with a blank expression.
She also noticed Chen Wenwen's expression and thought to herself that this scumbag was indeed quite inhuman. Fortunately, she had been by Su Xiaoqiang's side for a year and knew how to identify and stay away from scumbags.
When Su Xiaoqiang first enrolled, he was harassed by a bunch of guys who were interested in him. Later, when they realized that Su Xiaoqiang couldn't win them over, they went after Liu Miaomiao. So Su Xiaoqiang taught Liu Miaomiao how to identify these guys.
Chapter 251 When it comes to roasting people, Su Xiaoqiang is the best.
Lu Mingfei stared blankly at everything, and of course he also noticed Chen Wenwen's expression.
He is a person who is always overflowing with compassion and cannot bear to see anyone being wronged in front of him.
He felt that Zhao Menghua could announce the engagement after Chen Wenwen left, and there was no need to embarrass her like this.
Why bother?
You two were once in love, weren't you?
“Hey, Zhao Menghua…” Lu Mingfei couldn’t help but say, “I’ve realized you’re really a jerk…”
Lu Mingfei, who has always been timid, is now like Evangelion Unit-01 in "EVA" when it loses power, ready to go berserk at any moment.
Those who had been applauding and congratulating fell silent, staring blankly at the scene.
One is their leader, and the other is a prodigy from Shilan High School. Are they finally going to face off today?
A faint sense of anticipation arose in the hearts of several people.
Watching the drama unfold is the most fun!
Lu Mingfei actually had a lot more to say, such as cursing Zhao Menghua for being inhuman and abandoning him after starting a relationship... but he didn't say a single word.
Since they were together after all, Chen Wenwen would probably be unhappy if Lu Mingfei said that.
She is a sentimental girl.
So after saying one sentence, Lu Mingfei fell silent, staring at Zhao Menghua with what he considered to be very intimidating three-white eyes.
Zhao Menghua's face turned ashen. Although he had broken up with Chen Wenwen, as the saying goes, what you can't have always seems more alluring, so he still harbored a possessive desire for Chen Wenwen.
He just wanted to enjoy watching Chen Wenwen's sad expression, and he couldn't wait to go up to her and ask if she would continue to act up in the future.
Therefore, he couldn't stand anyone standing up for Chen Wenwen.
"None of your business!" he said angrily, his eyes wide.
"You're right," Lu Mingfei replied calmly.
Zhao Menghua couldn't stand Lu Mingfei's arrogance; after all, today was his big day.
He stepped forward, closing in on Lu Mingfei: "What do you want?"
"Not very good," Lu Mingfei replied indifferently.
In reality, he was terrified. Zhao Menghua seemed to have some boxing experience, while Lu Mingfei hadn't paid any attention in his combat training...
"Alright, let's all keep quiet." Liu Miaomiao sat to the side with her arms crossed, looking at Zhao Menghua and said, "Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast. We're all classmates, there's no need to be like this."
Liu Miaomiao's words were pointed, reminding Zhao Menghua that she had something on him and that it was time to stop.
Zhao Menghua was slightly taken aback. What happened at the entrance of the top-floor clubhouse in Shanghai was the most humiliating moment of his life.
His biggest fear today was that Liu Miaomiao would reveal his embarrassing moments, which would make it impossible for him to stay in the Shilan Middle School alumni circle.
Fortunately, the obedient Liu Miaomiao kept her word and did not tell anyone about it.
Therefore, Zhao Menghua always kept a low profile in front of Liu Miaomiao.
However, seeing Liu Miaomiao actually standing up for Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen today still made him feel somewhat aggrieved.
Why should I? You all didn't see her acting up when she was being difficult, but now you all treat me like the bad guy? Am I the only bad guy?
At this moment, other classmates also came up to persuade Zhao Menghua to stop and pull him away to prevent a real fight from breaking out.
Wang Meimei also chimed in, "It's alright, it's normal for some people not to like me. It's nothing for me to suffer a little..."
The two people holding Zhao Menghua's back had black lines on their faces. Sister-in-law, are you sure you're not stirring things up?
If a fight breaks out, the scene will not be pleasant.
Zhao Menghua suppressed his anger. He knew he couldn't finish the meal, so he called the waiter over and said he wanted to pay the bill. He said he wouldn't eat anymore and would find a place to treat everyone to Italian food that night.
The waiter brought the bill over, and Zhao Menghua put the banknotes on the plate. After thinking for a moment, he took one back and told Lu Mingfei to pay the bill himself.
Lu Mingfei had spent all the money in his pocket on toilet seats, and he had also spent all his allowance. He had borrowed a thousand yuan from Gu Ran and hadn't had time to pay it back yet!
But he had his Kassel College student card with him, which was also a credit card with a $100,000 overdraft limit.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Lu Mingfei's black card. His card was pure black and had the logos of American Express and Citibank.
Black cards are for the most distinguished users of credit cards; credit card companies don't issue them randomly, and you must have sufficient credit funds to qualify.
Liu Miaomiao had seen this kind of card before, and Gu Ran also had one. She wanted to come and see it up close; the card was very exquisite and beautiful.
Lu Mingfei watched with satisfaction as his classmates looked on in astonishment, and was about to show off to the waiter.
To his surprise, the waiter hadn't seen her credit card before and thought it was a library card. Lu Mingfei had no choice but to ask her for the POS machine and swipe the card himself to show them.
But the card swipe failed.
His card was not registered with the bank. If he used the card in another location, the bank's system would detect the risk of fraud and suspend the transaction.
"Ah, this..." Lu Mingfei stood awkwardly to the side.
Silence fell over the private room once again.
But someone accidentally burst out laughing.
Smiles are contagious and can be transferred, so the private room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and laughter rose and fell.
Lu Mingfei's face flushed red and then turned pale.
Well, he's embarrassed himself again. But he's gotten used to embarrassing himself over the years, so it doesn't really bother him.
Liu Miaomiao took out her wallet, ready to pay Lu Mingfei.
Since he helped Chen Wenwen so much today, she'll step in and lend a hand.
The obedient girl is also a gentle and kind child.
"Cash is fine." At that moment, a boy wearing black sunglasses, a white t-shirt, and washed denim jeans walked in.
He took out a few hundred yuan and put it in the waiter's wallet, then took Lu Mingfei's student card back: "Keep the change."
Liu Miaomiao and Lu Mingfei both stood up at the same time when they saw this person.
For Liu Miaomiao, there was only one person she had a crush on at Shilan Middle School, and that was Chu Zihang.
Every year at the Shilan Middle School Spring Festival Gala, Liu Miaomiao's piano solo and Chu Zihang's saxophone solo are traditional programs of the school.
So when Chu Zihang appeared, even though he was wearing sunglasses, she recognized him immediately.
As for Lu Mingfei standing up, he had a bad feeling.
Oh no, am I going to have to slay a dragon again?
The rest of the people were all watching this uninvited guest.
"Is the class reunion over? There's something at the college that needs your help." Chu Zihang glanced at Lu Mingfei, then took off his sunglasses, revealing his identity.
Everyone was stunned.
Zhao Menghua, who aspired to become the next Chu Zihang, was completely dumbfounded.
"Okay, it's been a long time, senior brother." The somewhat timid Liu Miaomiao mustered up her courage to speak to Chu Zihang.
Chu Zihang looked at Liu Miaomiao and nodded to her.
