“Hu Feng, I guess you’re not from Huangtou Village.” Meng Nan suddenly said.
“I guess you’re not from Qingyuan Town.” Hu Feng simply said.
Meng Nan laughed, then said: “Yes, I am not from Qingyuan Town. I am originally from the Capital. What about you? Where are you from?”
Hu Feng shook his head: “I don’t know, anywhere is possible.”
I don’t know? Anywhere is possible?
What kind of answer is that? He’s clearly playing at him.
Meng Nan unhappily said: “Hu Dage, this is not how you should answer to a friend!”
Hu Feng looked at Meng Nan once again, he said with a provocative tone: “What is the meaning of Meng Daren’s words? Since when did we become friends?”
This was a slap on Meng Nan’s face, he almost sprays out the tea that he had just drunk.
“Hey – how can we not count each other as friends?” Meng Nan increased his voice a little bit.
Hu Feng didn’t make a sound, he also stopped looking at Meng Nan. He got up and then went outside.
Meng Nan was dumbfounded. What is wrong with that guy’s brain? He is a government official, although he is only a local magistrate, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is a respectable official!
Who said that first-rank official can pressure even the dead?
Whenever Meng Nan was in front of Hu Feng, how could he not feel this advantage? He was even despised by him… …

“Meng Gege, I’ve come to see you.” Gu Xi led herself and her maidservant inside the hall. Seeing Meng Nan sitting in the chair in a daze, her complexion changed: “Meng Gege, what’s wrong with you?”
Meng Nan returned to his senses: “Nothing, I am fine.” Then, he looked up and stared at Gu Xi: “What are you doing here? Didn’t I said last time, men and women are different. You shouldn’t run to me the whole day. It’s not good if people misunderstand us.”
Gu Xi’s lovely cheeks blushed, as she tried to sit down in the chair next to Meng Nan: “Meng Gege, my father said you hurt your hand, your family is not around, so he let me take care of you. I don’t care what other people think about us, so why you should care!”
Your father? Of course, he won’t care about it. He hopes that you and I were misunderstood. So that he can take that opportunity to climb up the Meng Family. With his small brain, how can he not be so obvious?
He was born in the Meng Family of the capital. He grew up with other noble children since childhood. Every young lady from the small family tried every means to climb up his bed. He had seen so many tricks like this.
“You don’t care, but I care. Although I am far from the capital, I can’t let my family lose a face just because of some fake rumors that don’t even exist. Miss Gu, don’t you agree?”
Gu Xi’s flushed face suddenly were covered with haze, her good looking eyebrows frown, and her small hands kept twisting. She said with a bit difficulty: “Meng Gege, what are you talking about? We’re not doing anything shady. Why would there be rumors? You’re just worrying too much!”
Meng Nan swept his eyes to Gu Xi, there was even a chilling trace of light in his eyes “If I’m only just worrying too much, that would be good.”
Last month, his mother sent a letter to Qingyuan Town. The letter mentioned some things about him and Gu Xi. Gu Daren has a brother in the capital. Although he was an official in the capital, he was only a small pry and has no power.
Who knows what exactly did he do, but he found out where Meng Nan’s father is. Then said to Meng Nan’s father, that Meng Nan and his niece like each other a lot.
