Meng Yan scoffed inwardly; this money wasn't even enough for his usual meals!

Zhang Xing, an ordinary person, felt that he had surpassed most of his peers and considered himself superior.

Wenwen knew that her brother-in-law was an outstanding person, and this man showing off here only made him seem presumptuous. She smiled awkwardly.

"Well, pretty good..."

Gan Qi remained calm, completely unconcerned.

Gan Qi has been running her own small business, earning more than 2 yuan a month before. Recently, she has taken on several high-quality jobs, and her monthly income has exceeded 3 yuan.

Zhang Xing's income was only so-so for her.

Gan Qi's only thought now is: once the divorce process is over, she will immediately buy a small house in a good location.

She desperately wanted a small home that was entirely her own.

Zhang Xing felt somewhat embarrassed that he hadn't achieved the desired effect.

He coughed deliberately, emphasizing the sound:

“My base salary is already over 10,000 yuan a month. With the year-end bonus, performance bonus, and profit sharing, I can make up 200,000 yuan a year… Honestly, there aren’t many people my age who earn this much!”

"Moreover, our company has a bright future and a lot of room for promotion. When I become a supervisor, my annual salary will be at least several hundred thousand!"

When Zhang Xing talked about his work, he was clearly very confident, and he deliberately glanced at Meng Yan's handsome face.

Hmph, so what if he's handsome?

Ultimately, a man's worth comes down to his economic strength!

He felt that although Meng Yan's clothes and shoes looked expensive, he was only driving a small Dongfeng car worth tens of thousands of yuan. What did that mean?

This suggests that the man's financial situation is clearly not good; he probably spends all his earnings on his clothes!

Zhang Xing's own car is a Mercedes!

Even though I bought an older model Mercedes and took out a loan, an older Mercedes is still a Mercedes.

He felt he had a clear advantage over this pretty boy surnamed Meng.

"Mr. Meng, may I ask how much your salary is? Where do you work?"

When Meng Yan saw that he had asked him about himself, he didn't want to pay any attention to him.

Normally, a nobody like Zhang Xing wouldn't even be qualified to serve him food, let alone sit at the same table to eat.

Meng Yan replied calmly, "I haven't calculated it."

"Oh, you haven't calculated it?"

Zhang Xing smiled with a hint of smug satisfaction.

These days, who doesn't know their salary inside and out?

This person actually said he hadn't calculated it; that's clearly an excuse.

He's most likely just an ordinary worker earning a few thousand yuan a month, whose income is far less than mine!

Zhang Xing: "You don't know how much your monthly salary is? You don't know about your year-end bonus? That's strange. What kind of company is that?"

Meng Yan: I'm afraid it will scare you to death if I tell you.

Gan Qi didn't want Zhang Xing to focus the conversation on Meng Yan's identity.

Today is just a regular meal; let's try not to cause any unnecessary trouble.

She interrupted Zhang Xing, "Why talk about work while eating? Let's talk about something else. Zhang Xing, you're already very good. You'll definitely become a senior manager in the future."

Hearing Gan Qi praise himself like that, Zhang Xing smiled even more smugly.

At the same time, he had already determined that Meng Yan's salary was only around a thousand yuan.

Otherwise, Gan Qi wouldn't have smoothed things over for him like that.

After all, everyone cares about saving face.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xing exuded confidence from every pore of his body.

He poured drinks for everyone, pretending to be a gentleman.

"Oh, not at all. I'm just an ordinary working person. I graduated from a prestigious university and worked my way up step by step... I have a very clear life plan. After I get promoted to supervisor, I will save up 200 million yuan within 5 years, then buy a villa, and I won't have to worry about the rest of my life."

Wenwen: "I used to hear my mom say that Aunt Zhang's nephew is exceptionally outstanding! He's great in every way, and he really has the air of a successful person. No wonder you didn't agree to meet any of the many girls she introduced to you on blind dates."

When the topic of blind dates came up, Zhang Xing paused for a moment.

"...I have requirements for my other half. She can't be just a pretty face; she has to be compatible with me in terms of understanding. Many girls that my aunt introduced me to before were not suitable."

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Gan Qi's beautiful features.

Gan Qi lowered her eyes and used serving chopsticks to pick up pieces of tofu one by one into the hot pot soup.

Meng Yan noticed the man staring at his wife and coughed deeply.

Zhang Xing quickly looked away, "Actually, I don't have high requirements for a partner, the most important thing is chemistry..."

Wenwen smiled and said, "The whole neighborhood knows that Aunt Zhang's nephew has high standards. I wonder which outstanding girl will be able to marry a young talent like you in the future."

Gan Qi carefully placed the food from the plate into the pot, filling the living room with a rich aroma of hot pot.

She said casually, "It all comes down to fate between people! Speaking of which, the last time was supposed to be my blind date with Zhang Xing, but I ended up marrying Mr. Meng."

Zhang Xing was clearly somewhat regretful: "If only I had known earlier... if only I had gone..."

Meng Yan held back for a long time before finally speaking:

"Mr. Zhang, what did you know beforehand? What are you trying to say?"
