Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xu Menglu’s status in the company had undergone a massive change.
Now, everyone knew that, because of her, the script had been changed. Not only the latter parts, but even some of the earlier scenes had to be filmed again.
Changing the script like this was definitely a very serious matter. This was equivalent to the company investing a lot of money, time, and energy for Xu Menglu.
That also meant that Xu Menglu was someone the company was supporting.
Now that the CEO of the company and Ye Xiaofei had come together, Xu Menglu directly welcomed them, showing her status even more.
“Tsk tsk!” Ye Xiaofei sized Xu Menglu up, his eyes shining as he said, “Menglu is so pretty.”
“Is that so?” Xu Menglu’s eyes lit up, but she immediately blushed and said, “You didn’t even praise me when I was wearing normal clothes, but now you’re praising me. You’re a little naughty.”
Ye Xiaofei laughed and said, “At that time, 1 was still a little unfamiliar. Now, I’m familiar with you. I’m just joking with you.”
“You’re joking? 1 thought you really thought I was pretty.” Xu Menglu pouted, looking a little resentful.
Wang Dabao lightly nudged Ye Xiaofei with his shoulder and said with an evil smile, “She’s teasing you. Hurry up and coax her.”
Ye Xiaofei and Xu Menglu walked to the side and met Xu Menglu’s burning gaze. Ye Xiaofei said with some doubt, “Xu Menglu, 1 have a question for you.”
Xu Menglu smiled and said, “Ask me, I will tell you everything 1 know. In front of you, I have no secrets.”
“Although the two of us were classmates, we were only primary school classmates. We haven’t seen each other for so many years, and our impression of each other is very vague. However, your attitude towards me…”
Xu Menglu pouted and said, “You mean that you’ve forgotten about me, but I remember you so clearly and treat you so warmly. Is there a special reason?”
“Yes!” Ye Xiaofei nodded.
Xu Menglu tilted her head. “You can forget, but 1 can’t. It’s impossible for me to forget you.”
Ye Xiaofei pointed at Xu Menglu and then pointed at himself. He suddenly said nervously, “Did I do something at that time that is unmentionable?”
Xu Menglu glared at Ye Xiaofei and said, “That’s right. You did something unmentionable; you’re too terrible.”
Ye Xiaofei’s eyes widened and he said, “No way! How old were we then? How could I do such a thing? Besides, if I did that to you, shouldn’t you hate me?”
Xu Menglu was stumped for a moment and her face turned red. She raised her hand to hit Ye Xiaofei and said, “You’re not talking about that, are you?”
“Isn’t that it?” Ye Xiaofei asked doubtfully.
Xu Menglu rolled her eyes at Ye Xiaofei and said, “Go to hell. If you did that kind of thing, how could you forget? Besides, your thing was so big at that time, so it couldn’t be done, right?”
As she spoke, Xu Menglu’s eyes darted somewhere.
“Whew!” Xu Menglu’s first words made Ye Xiaofei heave a sigh of relief, but the latter part really caught him off guard. His waist almost hurt. His eyes bulged and he said, “You’ve even seen this before?”
Xu Menglu covered her mouth and giggled. Her little face was also flushed as she said, “I’ve seen it before. Humph, you shameless fellow. You always tricked me into catching fish in the river and then went down naked. You even asked me to help you get your clothes.”
“Oh, now that you mention it, I have some impression of it. This is really embarrassing, but it’s not to the extent that you remembered me all this while just because of this, right?”
“You don’t know this, but the days when I was your deskmate were the happiest period of my life. Later on, 1 encountered all kinds of difficulties. If I didn’t miss the happiness of those times, 1 really wouldn’t have been able to hold on until now. You were the last beam that supported me. Every time I couldn’t hold on any longer, 1 would miss the things at that time and bravely face my problems again.”
Xu Menglu’s eyes lit up as she spoke, and she looked at Ye Xiaofei without hiding her gaze.
Ye Xiaofei chuckled and said, “1 see. I really didn’t expect that my mischievousness when I was young would become an emotional support for you.”
“Yes, to you, it’s just a small matter, but to me, it’s really important. That’s why I’ve been thinking about you and paying attention to you. When you were in high school, 1 even secretly looked at you many times.”
“All, I don’t know anything about that.” Ye Xiaofei was a little surprised, and then he smiled, “Why didn’t you look for me directly at that time? If a beauty like you came to look for me, I’d have more face.”
Xu Menglu pursed her lips. “1 had low self-esteem at that time, so 1 didn’t dare to see you. Later on, I finally got better. I wanted to look for you, but 1 couldn’t find you anymore. This time, 1 will never lose you again.”
Ye Xiaofei blinked his eyes and said, “Heh heh, your words are a little scary.. You’re not thinking of devoting yourself to me, are you?”
