They wanted you to divorce and leave, but you became a rich woman's dream man.

Chapter 398 Ye Xiaowei's Best Friend
the other side.

Zhou Meiling paced back and forth anxiously, like an ant on a hot pan, muttering to herself, "What should I do? What am I going to do?"

"This is terrible! We've really messed up!"

She had previously boasted in the group chat that she had dated a rich second-generation heir at school, a boyfriend who was both handsome and wealthy.

This drew envy from relatives.

She was filled with worry. It would have been fine if her mother had come alone, but her aunt and cousin were also coming, which made her panic.

In an instant, two scenes that looked like anime scenes appeared in Zhou Meiling's mind, with warning red lights flashing all around.

These two, one like a grand mage and the other like a top-tier support, together are definitely a "gossipy duo" capable of stirring up a storm.

If they found out that I was bragging, I'm afraid I'd become a laughing stock for a long time among my relatives back home.

Recalling the scene in her maternal grandmother's living room during the Lunar New Year, and her aunt's eloquent and authoritative manner, Zhou Meiling couldn't help but shudder.

She picked up her phone cautiously, thought for a while, and suddenly thought of someone.

She glanced at Ye Xiaowei's bed.

Finally, she sent a message to Gao Jun: "Gao Jun, are you free this afternoon?"

I silently prayed that he would reply in time.

But after waiting for a long time, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, with no response whatsoever.

Unwilling to give up, she posted again, "I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."

"Ding--"

[Gao Jun: "I'm busy, what's up?"]

Zhou Meiling hurriedly replied, "I have some personal matters to discuss, and I would like to ask for your help, but this matter must not be known to Weiwei."

[Gao Jun: "Tell me, I've been a bit busy lately, so I might not be able to help you."]

Upon seeing this reply, Zhou Meiling felt utterly hopeless. "Brother Jun, it's really urgent, extremely urgent!"

Gao Jun: "Go ahead."

"Ding—" [Mom: "We've entered the station, don't worry."]

Zhou Meiling replied to Gao Jun: "This matter must be discussed in person."

After sending the message, she felt her face burning.

[Gao Jun: "What time?"]

Zhou Meiling quickly replied, "The sooner the better. Can you come to the school to find me by 4 p.m. at the latest?"

Gao Jun: "Okay,"

"Aaaaaah!" Zhou Meiling couldn't help but scream, slamming her phone onto the blanket.

She tossed and turned on the bed, clutching her head, feeling unbearably hot and aroused at the thought of being "humiliated" and spanked by Gao Jun.

Zhou Meiling muttered, her face growing increasingly flushed. ...

3:30 p.m.

Gao Jun hummed a little tune happily as he arrived at the school dormitory.

After Zhou Meiling went downstairs and got into the car, she let out a long sigh of relief, her eyes darting around as she pondered how to persuade him to lend a helping hand.

"Jun...Brother Jun, there's something I'd like to ask you."

She sat on the edge of the bed, looking pitiful: "We're good friends, right? You can't just stand by and watch me die!" "Okay, what is it?"

Gao Jun smiled as he approached her, sat down on the edge of the bed, turned his head to gaze at her beautiful face, and gently inhaled the faint fragrance emanating from her body.

She instinctively shrank back, shifted her position slightly to the side, and whispered, "You're handsome, rich, outstanding, and kind, aren't you?"

“The truth is out.” Gao Jun leaned closer to her, staring intently into her dark, bright eyes.

Zhou Meiling's heart raced as she looked into his bright, expressive eyes.

She composed herself and said softly, "Then I'll ask you to pretend to be my boyfriend. You definitely won't refuse, right?"

"Oh?" Gao Jun's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhou Meiling with a hint of surprise.

Zhou Meiling blinked her innocent big eyes at him and said pitifully, "My family has been trying to introduce me to someone, but I'm still in college. I... I lied to my family and said I had a boyfriend. To discourage them, I exaggerated a bit. Now they're coming to Shanghai to see me, and I want you to pretend to be me and help me get through this."

After saying that, she bowed to Gao Jun and pleaded, "Please! Please help me!"

As Gao Jun looked at her like this, his gaze involuntarily fell on her protruding buttocks.

He slowly reached out and gently stroked her head, then slowly slid his hand down.

Zhou Meiling suddenly raised her head:

"Of course I can help you."

Gao Jun blinked at her, who was still stunned, and his hand lingered on her waist and hips. "I'll also give you a car."

Zhou Meiling was completely tense and dared not move at all.

Zhou Meiling trembled and instinctively cried out, "I'm Weiwei's best friend!"

Gao Jun leaned close to her ear and whispered, "This is just a joke between friends. Don't you and Weiwei often touch and kiss each other? I'm her boyfriend, so I'm practically your boyfriend too. You don't need to be so polite. Besides, Weiwei is still in training at the company today. If you're worried she'll misunderstand, then don't tell her."

Zhou Meiling was breathing rapidly, and her face was flushed red.

It felt as if two little people were arguing fiercely in my mind.

After a moment, she asked softly, "You'll help me deal with my family and pretend to be my boyfriend, right?"

“Yes!” Gao Jun nodded firmly.

“I told him that my boyfriend is a billionaire, drives a Bentley, lives in a large apartment, is very handsome, and treats me very well.”

“I completely meet the requirements.” Gao Jun’s hand continued to reach downwards.

"You won't tell Vivi, right?" "Of course not."

"Book two standard rooms for them, four people in total. I don't want them to stay here. If they run into Weiwei, everything will be over."

"No problem." Zhou Meiling closed her eyes, collapsed onto the bed, and buried her face in her arms.

She stammered, "Hurry up... I... I'm in a rush, I need to pick them up at the train station at 5 o'clock."

Gao Jun's lips curled up into a faint smile.

Zhou Meiling closed her eyes tightly, as if she had already fallen asleep.

Seeing her reaction, Gao Jun couldn't help but find it quite amusing.

The shyness emanating from the young girl before him, combined with the subtle, ambiguous atmosphere, and the faint, pure fragrance of a virgin in the air, all stirred ripples in his heart, and his emotions surged.

Seeing this, Gao Jun quickly reached out and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, saying in a gentle tone, "Just for a moment, okay?" Just then, a crisp cell phone ringtone suddenly sounded.

When Zhou Meiling saw the caller ID, she jolted and quickly reached for her phone, which was beside her pillow. Trying to calm herself, she took a deep breath and answered the call.

"Hello, Mom, what's up?"

"I...I'm with my boyfriend, and we're about to leave."

"Don't worry, he will come to pick you up."

"No, he's busy right now and can't answer the phone." Gao Jun's heart skipped a beat when he heard Zhou Meiling mention the term "boyfriend."

Zhou Meiling suddenly raised her head, her eyes wide open, and slowly turned her head like a machine to look at Gao Jun, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Gao Jun looked back at her with a calm expression, as if his actions were perfectly justified.

Through the phone receiver, Zhou Meiling's mother's voice could be faintly heard: "Lingling, why aren't you saying anything? Hello, hello, is the signal bad?"

Zhou Meiling seemed to be frozen in place, not daring to move an inch.

Seeing this, Gao Jun reached out and took the phone from her hand, and said politely, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Lingling's boyfriend, Gao Jun."

"Oh, Xiao Gao, thank you so much for troubling us this time. We feel so bad that you had to treat us."

Gao Jun replied with a warm smile, "Auntie, we're family, no need for formalities. Lingling and I met in college, and we've always had a good relationship."

"Haha, what you said makes Auntie very happy! I know Lingling, if she's willing to introduce you to her family, it means she's definitely set her sights on you!"

Gao Jun smiled, glanced thoughtfully at Zhou Meiling, and continued to play with the basketball in his hand as he said, "Auntie, it rained heavily in Yancheng yesterday, and the weather is particularly cold. Did you bring any warm clothes? Do you need me to help you prepare some?"

"No need, no need, you're so thoughtful. We've all brought clothes." Other voices could be heard on the other end of the phone, seemingly discussing Gao Jun's words.

Faintly, one could still hear Zhou Meiling's mother arguing with someone else.

Zhou Meiling glared angrily at Gao Jun, slapped his hand hard, and mouthed silently, "Let me go!"

Gao Jun said directly into the phone, "Auntie, Lingling seems angry with me. I'll go and coax her first, then we'll talk when we meet."

"Okay, okay, then I won't bother you two young lovers anymore. Xiao Gao, Lingling has always been mischievous and prone to tantrums. Please be understanding. If she bullies you, just tell your aunt."

Gao Jun said softly, "Okay, Auntie, I have a good temper and I'll be tolerant of Lingling. In fact, I've always doted on her like a little sister." After hanging up the phone, a moment later...

Zhou Meiling said, her face flushed, "We should get going."

Gao Jun then said, "You said it yourself, and now I'm your boyfriend."

Zhou Meiling covered her face with her hands and said, "You are not allowed to tell Weiwei about what happened today! You can't tell anyone else either!"

"Okay, this will be a secret between us."

Zhou Meiling finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking completely lost and with a wandering gaze.

Gao Jun looked at his outfit: a white sweater, paired with beige pants and white casual shoes.

He then joked, "You and Weiwei are not only similar in figure, but also in aesthetics."

Zhou Meiling was a little nervous. She looked in the mirror, touched up her makeup briefly, and carefully examined herself in the mirror.

She blushed and looked at Gao Jun, saying, "Brother Jun, let's go quickly."

Gao Jun then stepped on the gas and drove towards the train station.

the other side.

On the train that was speeding along like lightning.

Ou Ya smiled with the loving kindness of an aunt, slowly put down her phone, and kept clicking her tongue in admiration: "This young man, just by listening to his voice, you can tell he must be extremely handsome, and he speaks so gently and softly."

Zhou Meiling's aunt, Zhou Yufang, moved her ear away from Ou Ya's phone, rolled her eyes, and said, "Ya Jing, you really believe what Lingling says so easily? Xiao Min often contacts her, but she has never mentioned anyone she likes or anyone she's romantically involved with."

"Look at her WeChat Moments, it's all clean and tidy, full of photos with her best friends. How could she suddenly have a boyfriend? And a billionaire and a handsome guy at that. Based on my years of experience, this guy is definitely unreliable. You should just listen to me and let Lingling go on that blind date. I'm her aunt, would I really harm her?"

Zhou Yufang now works as a mediator in the neighborhood committee. She often deals with all sorts of people, so she considers herself to be well-informed and intelligent.

Sitting opposite her, Sun Juan gently covered her mouth and let out a soft laugh. She wore a gold bracelet on her wrist, which shimmered brightly under the light and looked to weigh about 40 grams.

Ou Ya tightened her grip on the brown coat she had recently bought, frowned slightly, and said, "We haven't even met the person yet, how can you be so sure they're unreliable?"

Sun Juan replied with a smile, "Auntie, you know my cousin's personality perfectly well. She's free-spirited and unconventional, with a very easygoing personality. We grew up together, so I know her all too well."

Ou Ya frowned even more and said irritably, "Anyway, I just believe in my daughter."

Zhou Yufang pursed her lips slightly, picked up some fruit from the table and started eating. As she ate, she said, "Xu Rong, you work in a big company, you must have more experience than us. Do you think this is a good idea?"

Zhou Meiling's aunt, Ou Lan, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Ou Ya and slowly said, "Sister, Lingling has always been as innocent as a blank sheet of paper. Her world always seems to be full of sunshine and kindness. Knowing her as I do, she wouldn't lie to you on purpose, but..."

At this point, Oulan paused slightly, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, "I'm really worried that she'll be deceived. You see, she's never been in a relationship before, she's completely clueless about the intricacies of love, and in terms of social experience, she's like a child who hasn't entered the world yet, she has almost no experience whatsoever."

She took a deep breath, as if trying to calm herself down, and then continued carefully, "If she said she found an ordinary rich second-generation, whose family owns a factory, or someone who received compensation for land expropriation, it might be slightly more believable. After all, while such family backgrounds are wealthy, they are not too rare in today's society. Given Lingling's naivety, she might be more likely to come into contact with such people, and it would be more in line with common sense. But now she claims that her boyfriend is a billionaire, which sounds too dreamy, making us more wary. I'm afraid she's been fooled by sweet talk and fallen into a carefully designed scam, and in the end, she'll be the one who gets hurt. So this time, we must carefully check on her and make sure Lingling doesn't go astray on her romantic path."

At this moment, Aunt Zhou Yufang chimed in, "Oulan is right. We can't just stand by and watch Lingling fall into a trap. When we see that kid, I'll have to interrogate him thoroughly. If anything seems amiss, I won't let him off easily."

As Ou Ya listened to their words, her brows furrowed. Although she trusted her daughter, she was also affected by their worries and fell into deep thought.
