Chapter 125: Mengyan’s message
“I think I have seen the two of them before!” Lan Ling frowned and said in deep thought.
“You have seen them before?” Yang Ming was astounded to hear that.
“They look familiar, but I can’t remember.” Lan Ling shook her head and gave off a slight smile. Then she reverted to her original cute face. “Nevermind. I don’t want to think about it. Just keep all the photos.”
Yang Ming nodded his head. There are many people who look alike and familiar. There is no need to explore the root of the matter. He took a chair, then he took down all the photos with Zhang Bing and stored them in the cabinet.
Lan Ling was obsessed with cleanliness. She wiped away the dust in the house, then she washed the toilet bowl and mopped the bathroom.
Yang Ming had to go home tonight, so he couldn’t stay here. He instructed Lan Ling to be aware of her safety. If there was anything, contact him via SMS. They brought their SIM cards back from Yunnan, so a phone call had high roaming charges here.
After they went out of the apartment door, Zhang Bing couldn’t hold back his laughter. “Yang Ming, isn’t this keeping a mistress in a love nest?”
“F***, why? Are you jealous about it? If you’re jealous, find yourself a girlfriend then. I think Uncle Zhang would be happy to buy you a house!” Yang Ming looked at Zhang Bing with contempt. This guy is such a hypocrite.
As expected, Zhang Bing said with a sour face as he heard it, “Nevermind. You know me too. I don’t like commitment. Which woman would follow me? I prefer sex videos and one night stands which are much more exciting!”
“Fine, I don’t like my woman to be sleeping with others. I don’t have such a good mentality.” Yang Ming was quite traditional in this. Although Yang Ming had a virgin complex, he didn’t discriminate against non-virgins. The most important part was being faithful to her husband after they became a couple. This was what Yang Ming hoped for.
“Oh, yeah, but then again, how do you plan to deal with the problem of Chen Mengyan?” Zhang Bing thought of one key issue. “You can’t be thinking of dating the two of them at the same time, right?”
“Don’t mention it. I have a headache thinking about it!” Yang Ming shrugged. “This is your fault too. You kept on dragging me to look for prostitutes. It is great now. I found myself a wife!”
“What’s wrong with prostitutes? There are many people who look for prostitutes, but no one would take one back home!” Zhang Bing looked at Yang Ming with a half smile. “You’re the first one I know!”
“You didn’t notice that many wives of bosses came from the brothel as well!” Yang Ming thought of the internet novels he read before.
“The point is you aren’t a boss!” Zhang Bing shook his head. “I don’t know what you were thinking. Although she is cute, you brought her back without knowing anything about her background. Nevermind. I don’t want to say too much. You decide for yourself.”
“What should I decide? It’s you who brought up the topic! Don’t you tell Chen Mengyan about any of this. Let me think about it first.” Yang Ming said.
“Do I look like someone with loose lips? Relax. I’ll help you to keep it under wraps!” Zhang Bing patted on his chest like he was responsible for it.
After Yang Ming went home, it was about 6 p.m. Yang Ming’s parents had gotten home from work. They were happy to see Yang Ming back.
“Big Ming, your skin is tanned now!” Yang Dahai tapped on his son’s shoulder. “How was it? Did you enjoy the trip?”
“It was quite fun. After I earn money in the future, I’ll bring the two of you to have a tour there. The scenery is great!” Yang Ming put down his luggage with a smile.
“Good, our son has grown up! With these words, your dad is satisfied.” Yang Dahai was joyful after he heard that.
“En, we should retire when Big Ming starts working, then it’s our turn to enjoy life!” Mother Yang was happy. Whose parents wouldn’t like such words?
“Our boy’s mother, are you still thinking about your son’s salary?” Yang Dahai signaled Mother Yang. “It’s so hard now for a university student to get a job. Most of them are waiting for a job at home. Even when they have a job, their starting salary will be low!”
“Hehe, I’m just saying. When our son has a girlfriend, there will be more expenses. How can we get money from our son?” Mother Yang understood the reasoning naturally. “We should give more allowance to our son!”
“That’s a must if you want to have grandchildren. It’s impossible without investing some capital. Nowadays, which girl would follow a person without money?” Yang Dahai nodded his head and said.
“Dad, mom! What are you guys talking about? I can start earning money after a few more days, so you guys don’t have to work so hard. Just spend as you like. I think I can handle my academic fees on my own!” Yang Ming thought for a second. He decided to distribute some of his earning to his parents. Of course, he couldn’t tell them all about it. After all his extraordinary abilities were really strange. He was afraid to terrify his parents.
“You can start earning after a few days? Why do you say so?” Mother Yang asked doubtfully. Yang Dahai looked surprised too.
“It’s like this. I decided to work during the holiday. I’m planning on doing both part-time work and study.” Yang Ming said.
“Working? Doing part-time work and study?” Mother Yang froze, then she asked worriedly, “How could that be? What job are you working? Are you sure about this? I have seen the newspaper. Those black-hearted bosses usually deduct part-time workers’ salaries. Many of them worked for few months and didn’t get anything in return! Don’t you fall for it!”
“Yeah, Big Ming. Don’t you get cheated by others. There are many cheaters nowadays.” Yang Dahai was worried. “I have also heard that some businesses are illegal. You need to be careful!”
“Dad, mom, don’t worry about it. It’s not as scary as you both have mentioned.” Yang Ming laughed. “There are many part-time workers, and they’re fine too.”
“You’re different from others. You don’t have any experience in society, and you’re still young!” Yang Dahai said immediately.
“Dad, let me finish speaking. The place that I’m going to work at is Uncle Zhang’s company. That’s Zhang Bing’s dad!” Yang Ming explained, “We have agreed that I would work for him.”
“Zhang Bing’s dad’s company? Isn’t it a jewelry business? What can you do?” Mother Yang asked curiously, “Do people want a male salesperson?”
“Mom!” Yang Ming was dumbfounded. “Can your son only be a salesman? Why can’t I do something that’s more technical?”
“Technical? You don’t know about jewelry. What can you do?” Mother Yang was puzzled.
“On this trip to Yunnan, I have discovered that I’m talented in the field of gemstones. So I’m working on this.” Yang Ming said, “Even Uncle Zhang praised that I have good taste in picking gemstones.”
Yang Ming’s half-truth had relieved Father Yang and Mother Yang. After all, it’s a company of a classmate’s family. Therefore, it shouldn’t be anything messed up.
“Right, then you study well and focus on work. Just take whatever pay they offer and be satisfied!” Yang Dahai instructed.
“I know.” Yang Ming could only temporarily come up with such an excuse. After all, he couldn’t say that he earned money through his exceptional abilities.
That evening, Yang Ming’s family had dinner together. Yang Ming opened up his luggage and took out some presents from Yunnan. “Dad, mom, these are for you!”
“Aiya, it’s good enough that you came back already. Why did you buy so many presents?” Mother Yang said this, but her smile was very bright.
“They are special local products and small handicrafts from Yunnan. They didn’t cost much. You two can give them to others as presents or as acts of kindness.” Yang Ming said, “You need to try those two rice noodles with plastic seals. They taste really good.”
“Alright, your dad and I will taste it tomorrow morning!” Mother Yang said with a smile.
At night, Yang Ming turned on his computer. He launched QQ. Then, he received a few messages.
Wild Female Teacher: “Are you there? Play Landlords with me.”
Wild Female Teacher: “Say something!”
Wild Female Teacher: “You aren’t there?”
Wild Female Teacher left about ten messages. Their contents were more or less the same.
There were a few messages from I’m a Superstar, but those weren’t important messages. They were messages such as “are you there” etc. Yang Ming turned it off right away.
What especially excited Yang Ming was that “Xiao Yan” a.k.a. Chen Mengyan had left him some messages!
Xiao Yan: “Yang Ming, it’s me, Mengyan. I heard that you went to Yunnan for a trip. Remember to bring me some presents!”
Looking at Chen Mengyan’s message, Yang Ming didn’t know whether he should be happy or sad. Chen Mengyan referred to herself as “Mengyan” for the first time, which meant that Chen Mengyan no longer considered Yang Ming as an outsider!
Besides, Chen Mengyan didn’t mention anything about the previous incident at all, which meant that Chen Mengyan had probably regretted what she did. Moreover, the slightly playful sentence “Bring me some presents!” was completely in a flirtatious tone.
Yang Ming didn’t know what to do. If it was a few days ago, Yang Ming would be ecstatic, but now, he had Lan Ling, and everything wasn’t the same. Although he still loved Chen Mengyan, he couldn’t be with her anymore.
