"Little Meng, do you know that my family has been looking for you recently? You are already so old, how can you not be worried at all?" The middle-aged man quickly walked to Shen Meng's side and spoke to her.
From the looks of it, this middle-aged man seemed to be Shen Meng's elder or something.
Fang Jin didn't say anything. After all, this was Shen Meng's family matter, so he naturally wouldn't interfere.
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Shen Meng's face flashed with obvious disgust. She glanced at the middle-aged man and coldly spoke, "Go back? "What am I going back for? Am I going to let you people sell it to the rich?" What do you mean by that! " Hearing that, the middle-aged man's face revealed a trace of rage, "We're doing this for your own good! "Your parents passed away early. As seniors, we naturally have to take into consideration your marriage!"
After pausing for a moment, the middle-aged man continued, "And what's wrong with Young Master Wang? You're handsome, and you're rich. If you marry him, you won't need to worry about food and drinks in the future. If you focus on being a young mistress, what's the harm in it! "
Shen Meng had a mocking expression on her face as she looked at the middle-aged man, "Is that so?" Was it really that good? Then, my second uncle, if things are so good, why didn't you marry your daughter to Young Master Wang? "
The middle-aged man was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say. A moment later, a trace of anger appeared on the face of the middle-aged man as he said to Shen Meng, "You're coming with me right now!"
As he spoke, he extended his hand to grab Shen Meng. How could Shen Meng be caught by a middle-aged man? She shook off the middle-aged man's hand and angrily said, "I don't want to go with you!"
With that, Shen Meng's gaze turned to Fang Jin and she said, "Fang Jin, let's go." I don't want to stay here any longer. "
Fang Jin hesitated for a moment before finally nodding his head. No matter what had happened in Shen Meng's house, he was still determined by Shen Meng. Since Shen Meng was unwilling to stay, he naturally agreed.
Just as he wanted to pay the bill, however, before he could take a step back, the middle-aged man's gaze immediately turned towards Fang Jin. He sneered and said, "Xiao Meng, the reason you're not going back is because of this kid, right?"
Without waiting for Shen Meng to reply, the middle-aged man took a few steps forward and blocked Fang Jin's path. He said coldly: "Kid, if you're wise, you can leave immediately! This is our Shen family's matter, and not something you can get involved in. You brat, you want to be together with Shen Meng? Let's see if you are worthy of her! "
Hearing these words, Shen Meng's face changed. On the other hand, Fang Jin felt extremely depressed.
What kind of nonsense was this? All he did was eat. How did he offend anyone? Why did it have to be him?
Helplessly shaking his head, Fang Jin looked at the pot-bellied middle-aged man in front of him and slowly said, "You have no say in whether I am worthy of Shen Meng. Besides, I don't know you. Please don't compare yourself to me. Do you know that your behavior right now is very much like that of a fly, making people unable to resist the urge to slap you on the ground. "
"What did you say?" The middle-aged man's expression changed.
When Shen Meng heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. The anger he felt when he met the middle-aged man earlier had eased up by quite a bit as well.
Fang Jin did not put the middle-aged man in her eyes at all. Regardless of the middle-aged man's identity, Fang Jin did not care about him at all. No matter how powerful you are, what's the use? If you force Fang Jin into a corner, I'll directly kill you.
Death is like the extinguishing of a lamp. Once a person dies, what can you do, no matter how much power you wield? In the end, wasn't everything a waste?
It was because of this that Fang Jin did not place this middle-aged man in front of her in her eyes at all. He snorted lightly and said, "Please make way, I'm going to pay the bill."
As Fang Jin spoke, he walked forward. The middle-aged man's expression changed again and again. At this moment, he suddenly reached out his hand towards Fang Jin and furiously said, "Kid, I think you don't know what's good for you. Today, I'll show you a little bit of power!"
Just as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him and struck him in the face.
At this moment, the middle-aged man only felt a sharp pain on his face. He couldn't help but let out a blood-curdling screech as he was sent flying. Like a kite with its string cut, he landed on the ground.
The one who acted was naturally Fang Jin. At this moment, Fang Jin's brows were tightly knitted, and his face revealed an undisguised expression of disgust. He patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said slowly, "I don't like strangers touching me, especially men."
That man's entire body was in incomparable pain. How could he still hear what Fang Jin had said? Fang Jin didn't want to waste words with the middle-aged man. At this moment, he extended his hand and grabbed Shen Meng's hand. After paying the bill, he brought Shen Meng and left the Chinese restaurant.
Shen Meng and Fang Jin left the restaurant in large strides, but neither of them had any words to say. Just like that, they slowly walked forward. After walking for an unknown amount of time, Shen Meng pursed her lips, saying softly, "Fang Jin, I'm really sorry for what happened today."
Hearing Shen Meng's words, Fang Jin couldn't help but shake her head and smile, saying, "It's no big deal. Every family has its own problems, I naturally understand."
After a slight pause, Fang Jin continued, "What's more, I'm your boyfriend now anyways, right? If you have something you need help with, I will naturally help you. "
Shen Meng's face revealed a smile. It was obvious that it was because of what Fang Jin had said. She hesitated slightly before saying, "That person from before is my second uncle."
"Yes." Fang Jin nodded his head lightly. Regarding this, he was not surprised at all. Just now in the restaurant, Fang Jin had heard Shen Meng shouting at the middle-aged man.
Shen Meng softly said, "My parents died in a car accident when I was 16 years old. I am the only one who lives in this world. Those relatives of mine fawned over us while my parents were still alive. But when my parents left, they all changed their faces. "
After pausing for a moment, Shen Meng continued, "They realised my parents' company and put all their money into their own pockets. They even said that they were keeping the money for me. [Now you actually want me to marry a foppish young lord.]
"This is something I can't stand, so I ran out of the house and found a job outside until now." Shen Meng briefly explained what had happened to her to Fang Jin.
After listening to Shen Meng's explanation, Fang Jin's face revealed a look of realization. At this moment, he finally understood why a local man like Shen Meng wanted to rent a house.
It turned out that the reason she was renting a house outside was to hide from her relatives.
Looking at Shen Meng's face, Fang Jin suddenly felt a twinge of heartache. Although he had only met Shen Meng today and had only confirmed their relationship, there was no doubt that Fang Jin already had a good impression of Shen Meng at this moment.
After a moment of hesitation, Fang Jin reached out and took Shen Meng into her arms.
Shen Meng obviously did not expect that Fang Jin would make such a move. She could not help but be stunned for a moment. However, she quickly regained her senses and a smile appeared on her face.
She lightly sobbed and hugged Fang Jin.
The two of them tightly embraced each other. However, the strange feeling between them soon disappeared. At this moment, both Fang Jin and Shen Meng had a feeling, as if they had known each other for a long time.
After hugging for who knows how long, Fang Jin let go of Shen Meng's arms and said with a smile, "Were you full just now?"
Hearing Fang Jin's words, Shen Meng's face turned red. She gently shook her head and said in a low voice, "No."
"Actually, I don't have one either." Fang Jin chuckled and said, "Since that's the case, let's go and have a feast." "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere."
As Fang Jin said this, he pulled Shen Meng's hand and walked off into the distance. Shen Meng naturally would not reject Fang Jin. At this moment, the two of them quickly walked off into the distance, leaving Fang Jin holding her hand.
Fang Jin's destination was the street where the snacks were served behind Five Lake University. There were a lot of snacks here, and the food was cheap and good. It was a place where most university couples would come to.
At this moment, this street was filled with people. Fang Jin brought Shen Meng here and saw a black mass of people.
"Let's go. Take whatever you want to eat." Fang Jin laughed mischievously as he spoke to Shen Meng.
In her heart, Shen Meng had long since treated Fang Jin as her boyfriend. At this moment, she naturally wouldn't be polite. Her gaze quickly swept across the food stalls on both sides and she would occasionally buy something. Fang Jin was closely following behind Shen Meng and paying the bill for her actions.
Walking down a street, Shen Meng and Fang Jin actually ate until they were full. Both of them had grease stains on their mouths at the moment. The two of them looked at each other. At this moment, they could not help but laugh.
Fang Jin took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped Shen Meng's mouth. He opened his mouth and said, "Have you eaten your fill?"
"Yes." Shen Meng smiled and nodded. Just as she was about to say something, Fang Jin's phone rang.
Fang Jin frowned. It was already night time, who would call her at this time? Suspicious, Fang Jin took the phone from his pocket.
"Who is it?" Shen Meng curiously walked over and leaned on the side of Fang Jin's head, her gaze on Fang Jin's phone.
"I don't know." Fang Jin shook his head. The number that appeared on the screen was an unfamiliar number. He didn't even know who it was. This made Fang Jin curious.
As for his phone number, all he knew was those familiar people. As for strangers, it was impossible for them to know his phone number.
Perplexed, Fang Jin pressed the answer button. The moment the phone was picked up, a woman's voice came out from the receiver.
