Chapter 27

In the blink of an eye, the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday was over, and the students returned to school.

Xu Wanwan, who had finished morning classes, came to the cafeteria alone to eat lunch. She bought a fried egg and tomato rice bowl and found an empty seat to sit down with the tray.

"Xu Wanwan, why are you eating alone?" A somewhat surprised male voice came from behind.VIssiT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).com for the best novel reading experience

Xu Wanwan looked back and saw her female classmate Lu Renjia and male classmate Wu Mingshi from the same class. The speaker was Wu Mingshi.

Xu Wanwan didn't show much expression, she just lightly nodded her head in response and turned her head to continue eating.

Lu Renjia saw this and rolled her eyes. How dare this country bumpkin be so arrogant and unaware of her standing! It really annoyed her.

Wu Mingshi put his school bag on the empty seat next to Xu Wanwan and said somewhat shyly, "Wanwan, you don't mind if I sit here with you?"

Xu Wanwan shook her head and said softly, "This is a public space, do as you wish."

The boy nodded excitedly and left the table to buy food.

Lu Renjia was extremely jealous internally.

Wu Mingshi was the best looking boy in their class. She had taken notice of him since the first class meeting for new students at the beginning of the semester, but now Wu Mingshi was showing interest in this country bumpkin while she was completely indifferent!

Ye Jinmeng pouted her lips but didn't feel awkward about being seen through. She just laughed and said, "Wanwan, you don't know, during those days Xiao Jianren and her dad even went to my house wanting my brother to give XJ Apparel another chance. And they shamelessly said XJ could provide Cloud Sea Mall with an endless stream of benefits."

"Guess what, my brother utterly humiliated them. In the end, those two even had a big argument at the door of my house. Hahaha!"

"They seem to have a lot of confidence in their clothing brand," Xu Wanwan said mockingly.

"My dad even said before that over a decade ago, the Xiao Group's industries were also extremely large, comparable with our Ye family's."

"What a pity. I wonder what happened that led to the major change in leadership of the Xiao Group. They've been going downhill ever since," Ye Jinmeng said regretfully. "And they still don't cherish their current lifestyle, deliberately courting death without fear that they'll actually go bankrupt someday and end up penniless."

"You talk as if you experienced it personally," Xu Wanwan joked.

"Hehe, don't laugh, I've actually thought before about what would happen if I did become destitute one day and whether I could support myself," Ye Jinmeng said, sticking out her tongue playfully.

"But my parents and brother said that as long as they're around, they definitely won't let me become a pauper."

Looking at the blissfully happy Ye Jinmeng, Xu Wanwan couldn't help losing herself in thought. The Ye Jinmeng from her previous life, although not doted on by the Ye family, could still live a rich lifestyle. The Ye Jinmeng of this life received abundant love and care naturally even more so wouldn't end up penniless.

That's good too. A person this innocent and kind-hearted indeed deserves to be cherished and protected.

"Jinmeng," Xu Wanwan suddenly asked, "Do you believe there are parallel worlds?"
