Zhao Mengmeng was a little embarrassed, her cheeks flushed slightly, "That's because I don't have any announcements lately. Anyway, with this kind of weather, I can only stay at home and sleep until I naturally wake up every day. It's so strange."

Ding Ding teased, "Then I'll arrange a gig for you. There's a variety show that just asked me for people."

Zhao Mengmeng snatched the tablet from the menu, pressed submit, and said, "Let's order these for now. Mu An's plane ticket has been bought. Go ask him."

Ding Ding: "How could I dare? That's my boss! I'm afraid he'll break my legs."

Zhao Mengmeng said smugly, "Then don't ask. Can't you stand to see me having a peaceful time?"

Ding Ding: "Please, you're the one who said it was boring."

Zhao Mengmeng argued, "I didn't say it was boring, I said it was something I wasn't used to."

The waiter quickly brought over the dishes they had ordered, and the three of them stopped chatting and started eating hot pot.

Zhao Mengmeng placed the first portion of cooked mutton on Qiao Ran's plate.

"Thank you, Sister Qiao, for treating us to hot pot. I wish you a happy new year, and that you and Brother Qi will have a baby soon, preferably twins, a boy and a girl, a perfect family."

Qiao Ran smiled at Zhao Mengmeng, "Thank you, Sister Mengmeng. We'll have our child recognize you as their godmother from now on."

Dingding protested, "Ranran, Mengmeng should be your child's aunt, why is she recognizing a godmother? She should recognize me instead."

Zhao Mengmeng turned to look at Ding Ding, "Speaking of which, Ding Ding, I wish you a successful year in finding your other half. Here, take this mutton from your sister. Eat it, and your true love will appear."

Ding Ding chuckled and dipped the mutton Zhao Mengmeng had given her into the sauce dish before popping it into her mouth.

The scalding heat brought tears to her eyes. She chewed a few times, swallowed quickly, and drank a sip of iced lemonade to calm herself down. "Oh my god, it's burning me! My tongue is numb."

Qiao Ran: "Why are you in such a hurry? You've ordered so much."

Ding Ding chuckled, "I was scared by what Mengmeng said."

Zhao Mengmeng: "What's wrong? Don't you want to be in a relationship? Girl, you're already twenty-five this year. Didn't you say that your junior high school classmates' kids are old enough to run errands? You should hurry up and start dating too."

"Why don't you just pick from our Nebula Group? We have hundreds of employees, isn't there one you like?"

Ding Ding sighed deeply, "Yes, there are, but they don't like women."

Zhao Mengmeng's eyes widened. "There must be someone who likes women, right? Why do you have to be interested in someone who doesn't like women?"

Ding Ding: "It's too difficult. You two can't understand how ordinary girls like us feel. You pretty women don't lack suitors and have many options."

"However, for ordinary girls like us, let alone having suitors, we might not even succeed in pursuing others."

Qiao Ran smiled and put some mutton on Ding Ding's plate. "Ding Ding, you're too insecure. Relationships are complicated. Not everyone cares about looks. If your personalities don't match, no matter how pretty you are, it's useless."

Zhao Mengmeng stuffed a cucumber into her mouth and chimed in, "Exactly! Look how pretty Ranran is, but Lin Mengchuan still went out and messed around with Lin Fei, didn't he?"

Qiao Ran's lips twitched. "Mengmeng, thank you, but you're insulting me."

Zhao Mengmeng paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, patting Qiao Ran on the shoulder and saying, "No, I was just giving an example. The problem with you is with Lin Mengchuan; that guy has something wrong with his head."

Ding Ding: "I also think that guy has something wrong with his head. He went out and messed around, then came back and forced Ranran to divorce him. In the end, Ranran got divorced, and he started harassing her again. He's really despicable."

Zhao Mengmeng: "It's not just despicable, it's downright insane."

Ding Ding nodded: "Yes, he's a heartless, perverted bastard."

Qiao Ran watched as Zhao Mengmeng and Ding Ding took turns cursing Lin Mengchuan, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

What were we talking about just now?

How did it turn back to Lin Mengchuan?

After taking a bite of the hot pot mutton, Zhao Mengmeng suddenly came back to the topic, saying, "How about, Dingding, you go on a blind date?"

Ding Ding looked disgusted and exclaimed, "I don't want to! Those people who go on blind dates are all abnormal. Normal people don't need blind dates; they'd already been snatched up by someone else. I'd rather be a spinster than date those weirdos."

Qiao Ran disagreed, "Not necessarily, Ding Ding, that's too absolute."

Zhao Mengmeng: "Yeah, Dingding, you're being too absolute. Look at those CEO novels, most of the female leads are ordinary girls who meet a domineering CEO on a blind date and he drags her to get married in a flash."

"Maybe you'll meet a domineering CEO too? And then you'll transform into a wealthy socialite."

Ding Ding: "That's all fake, okay? There's no such thing as a good thing in real life. Besides, being a rich wife isn't easy. Look at Ranran when she was at Lin Mengchuan's house, she had to get up at five o'clock every morning to prepare breakfast."

Qiao Ran: ...Why am I being dragged into this again?

Zhao Mengmeng rested her chin on her hand and pondered, "So, it seems you're better suited to a single life. In that case, don't expect any love. Focus your energy on making money."

"Once you have money, will you still be afraid of not having a man? You can find a cute young man to serve you, how wonderful!"

Qiao Ran glanced at Zhao Mengmeng with a smile, "Why is it a little puppy?"

Zhao Mengmeng: "Listen to me. If you tell him to go east, he will never go west. If you find an older man, not only will you have to serve him, but he will also act like a big shot in front of you every day. It's so annoying."

Ding Ding nodded, "That makes sense. Then I'll make money first, lots and lots of money, and raise a puppy later."

The three of them ate in the restaurant for an hour.

We ate until our bellies were completely full.

Qi Muci called Qiao Ran and said he had arrived at the underground parking garage.

Qiao Ran then asked him to take the elevator to the top floor to meet her. She paid the bill and then took Zhao Mengmeng and Ding Ding to wait at the elevator entrance.

When they left the restaurant, Qiao Ran and Zhao Mengmeng both wore masks to avoid being recognized.

When Dingding reached the elevator, she suddenly received a message.

She opened her phone and saw that it was a blessing sent by someone whose nickname was "Don't Love Me".

Mo Aiwo: "Meow meow, Happy New Year! This message was typed out by me word by word, representing my sincerity. It's definitely not a mass message. I hope you can remember that I'm still a friend in your friend list."

Ding Ding laughed, finding this person particularly amusing, and replied, "Thank you, and Happy New Year to you too. This message was typed out word by word by me, representing my sincerity; it's definitely not a mass message."

"I hope you remember that I am still a friend in your friends list."

Mo Aiwo quickly replied, "You're lying, you must have copied and pasted this, I'm so heartbroken."

Ding Ding: "I swear to God, I typed this out word by word. If I had just copied and pasted, I would have never gotten married and would have lived a lonely old age with no one to collect my body after I died."

Mo Aiwo: "Wow, don't curse yourself like that! Today is the first day of the new year. You should say more auspicious things, like wishing me wealth and prosperity, may all your wishes come true, and good health."
