Chapter 17 – Originally, people had come here to curse at Lin Yiyi, but their attention ended up gravitating towards Meng Yuran (2)
Seeing someone placing a drink on his desk, Meng Yuran looked up and saw that in addition to Xu Jie, Li Yuebin and Xie Ning were also here.
Li Yuebin had a chubby, baby face. A few years ago, it would have been easy to mistaken him as a girl. He, Xu Jie, and Xie Ning were very good friends.
Xie Ning had a somewhat handsome face. There were girls in their classroom as well as in the other classrooms that had secret crushes on him.
He was the one that had placed the drink in front of Meng Yuran.
“Here, this is for you since you treated us to lunch today.”
Xie Ning smiled at him.
Meng Yuran remained silent.
He hadn’t offered to share his lunch with them to begin with. It was these three that shamelessly invited themselves. There hadn’t been that much food. It had barely been enough for him to eat, and he had to share some ofwith them…
They thought one drink was enough to pay him back for lunch?
They were certainly calculating very well!
Although he didn’t outwardly show his emotions and seemed as if he didn’t care, he totally detested them and wanted to ignore them.
But, the drink was innocent…
And, it was a cold drink too.
It was the end of April when the temperature started to rise in the southern city. In addition, the previous class had been P.E. class. After that period of exercising, even the soles of his feet were sweating. It wasn’t surprising that the boys would go together with their friends to buy drinks at the snack stand.
Meng Yuran silently stuffed the drink into his desk.
“Are you sharing your mom’s Weibo update?”
Xu Jie didn’t notice the chilly gaze directed towards himself. Seeing the Weibo content on Meng Yuran’s phone, Xu Jie quickly took out his phone from his pocket and swiped the update to share it too.
This kid behaved a bit of overfamiliarly. He was also the one that led his two friends to mooch food off of Meng Yuran.
Xie Ning secretly laughed at his silly friend for not seeing that Meng Yuran hadn’t been happy sharing his lunch at all. Not only had Xu Jie eaten Meng Yuran’s food, he was now trying to become friends with him.
However, Meng Yuran was unsociable and preferred to be a loner. He had a chilly indifferent personality. He wasn’t friendly with any of his classmates and appeared to be coldly aloof. In addition, he was the top student in their grade. A single glance was enough to tell that it would be hard to become friends with him…
However, he had surprisingly not refused to share his lunch with them.
Actually, this fellow wasn’t that bad…
For these boys, who were in the period of growth and development, they had a good appetite to begin with and easily got hungry. Between classes, they couldn’t resist going to the snack stand to buy snacks even though they knew they would have food to eat right after school was over and they went home.
Eating was the most important thing to them, so there was nothing that couldn’t be solved with a meal.
Meng Yuran’s mom’s cooking was so delicious they could almost swallow their tongues…
Because of this meal, these three were conquered by Meng Yuran in a flash.
Although, Meng Yuran didn’t appreciate his newly gained friends at all.
Seeing that Li Yuebin was also tapping at his phone, Xie Ning followed his friends in taking out his phone and said, “Aunty’s cooking was really yummy. I’ll share her post too.”
As soon as they thought about being able to eat Meng Yuran’s mom’s cooking every day, what was the big deal about sharing her post? They even wanted to usher the rest of their classmates to share her post too.
Perhaps, if Meng Yuran’s mom saw that they were sharing her post, she might be touched and reward them with more of her cooking?
The world view of elementary students were very simple. Even if they knew that Meng Yan was the film emperor, how many of them would know that he had married Lin Yiyi many years ago? Even if they knew these two had once been married, they would only be a bit surprised that Meng Yuran was the film emperor’s son…
Their thoughts would only go down the path of, oh, no wonder Meng Yuran looked good. His father was handsome, and his mother was beautiful. His entire family had good genetics.
Xu Jie wouldn’t bite the hand that fed him. After this one meal, he immediately had an extremely good opinion of Lin Yiyi.
The majority of people more or less had a tendency to cover up flaws for people they liked. They thought Lin Yiyi was good, and Meng Yuran was good too. Thus, Film Emperor Meng Yan, who had abandoned his wife and married a starlet, definitely couldn’t be a good person!
