Chapter 1968 The Deceived Wife 18
Cui Yi didn't care at all about Bai Jiaojiao.
After coming to Chaolai Mountain, with her best friend Su Qingyan looking at her with a murderous gaze, she didn't dare to bow down to Cui Yi first like before. Besides, it was impossible not to be angry when her boyfriend inexplicably got angry at her.
The time, energy, and money she has invested in Cui Yi are far less than the future costs, so giving up doesn't seem difficult.
Now, in addition to her professional courses, she has a strong desire to make money for the first time.
The food at Fresh Delicious Restaurant, the beautiful staff at B&B No. 88, and the magnificent view from the mountaintop—all of these require money.
They returned to the guesthouse with a large bag of snacks. Chen Nianhe and the others hadn't eaten yet and were waiting for them.
"Huh?" An Jingyu sat listlessly on the living room sofa watching TV. Hearing the noise outside the door, she thought dinner was about to start, but her attention was drawn to the woman behind Bai Jiaojiao and Su Qingyan. "The new one?"
"How did you get injured?" Seeing the bruise on the person's lip, she was startled. She quickly stood up and walked towards the first-aid kit next to the television, asking uncertainly, "Is there any medicine here? Should I put some on?"
"Meng Li?" Yan Meng, who came out of the kitchen, looked at her two best friends beside her, then at Meng Li, who was waving and grinning at everyone, and asked with a puzzled expression, "This is...?"
"We couldn't get a taxi in town." The bus routes had stopped, and ridesharing wasn't going in the right direction. The two of them, who were gritting their teeth and planning to take a taxi back, ran into Meng Li, who was driving away from town, on the side of the road.
Su Qingyan: "Sister Lili brought us back."
Bai Jiaojiao: "Sister Lili also plans to stay in the village for a month."
The two best friends each offered an explanation, and seeing that Meng Li didn't mind them talking about her, they immediately poured out what they had been holding back all the way.
At the dinner table, Meng Li didn't need to introduce herself; everyone else already knew about her.
"I'm not sure if I should show a sympathetic look, but I'm sorry, I can't help it." Anjing Yu frowned slightly, casting a sympathetic and concerned look at Meng Li. "Are you alright?"
Meng Li shrugged, looking helpless: "It's alright, except for not knowing how to deal with my parents."
She is financially independent, and apart from emotional matters, her parents have virtually no restrictions on her.
As for her ex-partner, she felt sad, but mostly she was relieved that she had discovered his personality flaws before marriage that she couldn't tolerate—arrogance, self-righteousness, vanity, violent tendencies, and so on.
She couldn't even imagine what she would do if she discovered her partner's personality was flawed after marriage or after having children.
"The marriage tree is quite effective." Bai Jiaojiao quickly shoveled a few mouthfuls of rice into her mouth. Thinking of the person in the police station who tried to smear Meng Li, she said indignantly, "Sister Li's ex-boyfriend was really terrible."
Su Qingyan: "..." I really want to sew my best friend's mouth shut!
They are not very familiar with each other yet, and they don't know each other's personalities. It's better to say these kinds of comments about each other's partners in private. If they say them out loud, who knows what the other person is thinking?
Despite the sympathetic looks from the group, Meng Li didn't feel too uncomfortable. Over the meal, she could roughly sense that these people didn't have any bad intentions and were much easier to get along with than the parents of her students.
"Can I pay for our meal?" she asked Chen Nianhe.
Chen Nianhe had no objection, but she still had to say it beforehand: "There's a menu and prices on the refrigerator. If you think the price is acceptable, then you can pay. I'll also be filming a cooking video. Your faces won't be on the screen, but the area below your neck will inevitably be visible. Is that acceptable?"
Meng Li nodded: "Okay."
Chen Nianhe: "If I have something to do during the day, I will prepare the food in the morning and put it in the refrigerator. Whoever wants to eat it can heat it up themselves."
She'll be busy selling the village's agricultural products these days, so she won't be able to cook meals on time every day.
Everyone at the table nodded in understanding.
Yasui Yu put down her chopsticks, took a tissue to wipe her mouth, and said, "I don't have anything to do these days. Do you need any help?"
Chen Nianhe glanced at An Jingyu, and seeing that she really wanted to help, she nodded and said, "Sure, can you help me coordinate with the courier? I bought some packing boxes, which will be delivered tomorrow. I'll pay you 100 yuan a day, paid daily, is that okay?"
The weight of each order is fixed. The elderly people in the village can pack and weigh the agricultural products themselves, but they don't know much about sending express deliveries.
Of course, she couldn't gamble on people's character; she had to ask An Jingyu to check for any discrepancies in weight or weight, lest she lose her credibility.
“No problem.” An Jingyu just wanted to find something to do, and she wouldn’t refuse money if she got paid. She gave a gesture of acceptance, picked up her bowl and chopsticks and put them in the sink. “Then you guys eat slowly, I’m going upstairs.”
Apart from Bai Jiaojiao and Su Qingyan, the others are all adults who have entered society and don't have much interest in other people's affairs. They keep their distance when meeting strangers for the first time, and they still need time to understand what kind of person Meng Li is in private.
After dinner, Meng Li gave her food money to Chen Nianhe, Bai Jiaojiao and Su Qingyan shared the snacks they wanted, and then took Meng Li to the guesthouse lobby to check in.
Ming Zhan was on duty that night. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his usually cold and stern face was now more approachable than when he wasn't on duty. His long, black, and shiny hair always made Su Qingyan's hand itch to reach out and pluck it to see if it was real.
The lobby was bustling. In the rest area, guests who were staying in the dormitory-style rooms and weren't sleepy yet gathered to avoid disturbing those who were sleeping. Some played games, while others chatted.
"Everyone here is quite well-mannered." Bai Jiaojiao was quite surprised to see this scene, as it was her first time coming to the lobby so late at night.
Meng Li took out her room key and smiled, "There are a lot of young people here, would you like to go and take a look?"
Bai Jiaojiao and Su Qingyan really wanted to play with people their own age, so they didn't say anything to refuse. They waved to Meng Li and headed towards the rest area.
Nobody knows anyone else, but if you ask to borrow a charger to charge your phone, kind-hearted and naive young people will almost never refuse.
Once you have a topic to talk about, it's easy to get involved.
"Want to play games?" "Invite me!"
"Found a new celebrity gossip!" "Gossip about a rival company, I need to see what's going on."
"The staff at B&B No. 88 are all handsome men and beautiful women, so pleasing to the eye!" "They are handsome, but just look and that's enough. They charge fifty-one photos, which is no cheaper than my brother and sister's professionally edited photos."
"I posted a photo of myself with Mingsi and Mingwei online today, and the number of views and likes skyrocketed. The line of people envious of me in the comments section stretches all the way overseas!"
"Hehe, I posted a picture of a love tree, and lots of people are commenting with 'good luck in love'!" "...You're just waiting to get yelled at!"
In this kind of atmosphere, everyone can become lively.
The two best friends didn't find it boring at all, and decided to come to the lobby every time they finished dinner.
