Chapter 144

Ye Jinmeng had not woken up since that day, causing everyone to worry.Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com

However, the doctors could not find any reason for her condition. When she was brought to the hospital, the examination results only showed fatigue and mental stress leading to fainting.

Shi Shuning sat by the bed, tightly holding Ye Jinmeng's hand and complaining, "Mengmeng, you promised me that you would only sleep for a little while, and that you would wake up as soon as I called you. How can you break your promise?"

"Mengmeng, please don't sleep anymore, okay? Wake up quickly, I've prepared so many delicious foods for you." Xu Wanwan chimed in from the side, even waving a sausage in front of Ye Jinmeng's nose.

"Mengmeng, do you smell how fragrant this is? This is the sausage you love the most. If you don't wake up, I'll eat it all."

But Ye Jinmeng still showed no reaction.

At that moment, Ye Jinmeng found herself standing in front of an office door, a very familiar environment.

Frowning, she suddenly realized, "Oh! It's that Zhao Di..."

Ever since she dreamed of Zhao Di last time and woke up, Ye Jinmeng had been hoping to dream of her again, to see what Zhao Di's fate would be. Now she had the opportunity.

She quickly went through the office door and heard the last sentence the woman had said before.

"Your grandmother just called me and said she has found a suitable family for you to marry into. Their family conditions are not bad, and they've given a large dowry. Although... the groom may have some intellectual challenges, but he will definitely not mistreat you."

Ye Jinmeng was no longer as anxious as last time. She just nervously stared at Zhao Di, hoping she would muster the courage to resist.

But Zhao Di only kept her head down, lips tightly pursed, and her hands hanging at her sides, gently gripping the edges of her clothes, seeming uneasy.

It seemed she was used to having her fate arranged by her grandmother, and even if she was unwilling, she had never thought of resisting.

Ye Jinmeng sighed. This girl's fate was truly bitter.

Seeing Zhao Di remain silent with her head down, the woman shook her head, opened a drawer, took out a thick envelope with an ID card, and handed them to Zhao Di.

"Take these and leave. The further you go, the better. Don't ever come back here."

Zhao Di choked back tears, her heart filled with a thousand words, all condensed into a few, "I understand. Thank you, auntie."

Ye Jinmeng was also moved to tears. "Wah, this auntie is too good!"

Before Ye Jinmeng could finish crying, the scene changed again, this time to nighttime.

"Yiheng Electronics Factory." Ye Jinmeng read the signboard under the streetlight. "It seems Zhao Di got a job at an electronics factory."

At that moment, the factory gate opened, and a group of young men and women in work uniforms came out.

Ye Jinmeng immediately spotted her long-awaited Zhao Di.

"Ah, finally off work. Twelve hours a day is really tiring," a girl said while massaging her arm, complaining to Zhao Di beside her.

Zhao Di smiled without a word.

"Zhao Di, let's go to the night market. What do you want to eat tonight?"

Zhao Di thought for a moment. "Hmm, today is my once-a-week reward day. I want to eat meat, a large portion!"

The girl laughed, "With how much you make, you only eat meat once a week? If it were me, I'd eat it every day, three meals a day!"

Zhao Di replied, "I do love meat, but saving money is more important right now. Once I have enough money, I'll go to the Capital City to make even more. Then, I won't deprive myself anymore."

Ye Jinmeng followed Zhao Di to the night market, where Zhao Di ordered a bowl of beef noodles, plus two liang (around 100g) of braised beef.

Ye Jinmeng was speechless. Was this the meat she rewarded herself with?

Watching her eat with relish, Ye Jinmeng couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

"When I have money in the future, I want to taste all kinds of delicacies and become a gourmet. This beef is quite delicious already, and other delicacies must taste even better!" Zhao Di said with a longing look.

That girl also chimed in, "Okay, once you have money in the future, I'll tag along with you, haha!"
