He had always thought that he and his girlfriend were very romantic from high school to university. He did not expect Jiujiu to have been in a relationship for more than ten years before she was twenty years old. Didn't that mean that they had been together since elementary school?
This …
Jiujiu's description made the curious colleagues fall silent instantly. He Xiaojing was so tired that it took her a long time to squeeze out the word "awesome" from her mouth.
Jiujiu thought about it and offered to treat everyone to dinner. She also wanted to introduce her fiancé to everyone.
Since the two of them were ready to register their marriage, Wu Mengze's identity naturally changed from boyfriend to fiancé. Moreover, the Zhong family and the Wu family's status were not low. Their marriage was not only about the two of them, but it also tied the Zhong family and the Wu family together. It might even be on the news. When the news came out and her colleagues asked about it, she was afraid that she would not be able to fool them with a few words. She wanted to give everyone a heads-up in advance so that they would not disturb Wu Mengze's identity in the future.
When he heard that Jiujiu wanted to treat everyone to dinner, Zhou Sheng thought that he had just finished a case and had nothing to do tonight, so he nodded and agreed to the team's gathering tonight.
After work.
Jiujiu asked Wu Mengze to book a place.
Wu Mengze's company happened to have a restaurant that served good food, so he arranged for them to eat there.
When the boss spoke, the restaurant manager immediately arranged a big treasure chest and specially found a person with good eyesight to serve this private room.
When Jiujiu and the others arrived, they informed the restaurant manager and entered the private room.
Jiujiu's colleagues saw that Jiujiu brought them to a restaurant that they did not even dare to dream of eating at. They all gave her a thumbs up.
She was bold and straightforward. They liked this kind of young lady.
Jiujiu handed the menu to her colleagues and asked them to order.
Her colleagues made a fuss and said that Jiujiu's fiancé was so rich, so they had to take advantage of Jiujiu. They would definitely choose the most expensive dishes.
He Xiaojing raised her hand and slapped the person who spoke. "Are you stupid? They have known each other since they were young. Do you think Bao 'er is someone who lacks money?"
"Oh, yes!"
They had known each other since they were young. They were either neighbors or friends of their parents. At that level, they would only hang out with people who were at the same level as them. In other words, Jiujiu was also a super-rich big shot.
After recognizing this fact, the colleagues who had been clamoring to rip off Jiujiu suddenly felt that the abalone on the menu was no longer delicious.
Seeing her colleagues fall into silence, Jiujiu smiled and said, "That money belongs to my parents. It has nothing to do with me. I'm just like you guys. I'm just getting paid."
He Xiaojing rolled her eyes. "With a fixed salary, can you afford a car that costs at least three million yuan?"
Jiujiu smiled and corrected her, "That car is already the cheapest one in his family."
If she hadn't stopped him, Wu Mengze would have driven the limited edition Lamborghini out.
He Xiaojing said, "… Damn, rich people are so scary!"
The colleagues ordered in a lively manner. After they had finished ordering, Wu Mengze came over.
After entering the private room, Wu Mengze walked over to Jiujiu without looking sideways. He sat beside Jiujiu and handed her a glass of lemonade. It was from the shop that Jiujiu had mentioned yesterday that she wanted to drink.
Jiujiu was pleasantly surprised. "You went to the old campus?"
When they were chatting yesterday, she had casually mentioned that the lemonade at the entrance of the old high school was delicious. She had not expected him to go out of his way to buy it.
Wu Mengze rubbed Jiujiu's head and smiled affectionately. "No, I asked my assistant to drive over and buy it. Try it."
Jiujiu took a big sip and sighed. "It still tastes the same."
He Xiaojing sighed faintly at the side. "…"
This was the corrupt life of the rich. A glass of lemonade cost at most ten yuan. He had asked his assistant to drive over and buy it just to taste it. It was so sour.
In the group, some of the wives and children were smiling like aunts. Some of the girlfriends were sour. Some of the boyfriends were lamenting about other people's boyfriends. As for the bachelors who had nothing, when they thought about how Jiujiu had said that they had been together for more than ten years, they instantly felt sad. No wonder they could not find a partner. Those who were outstanding in relationships were destined to be with someone else from a young age.
On the other hand, Zhou Sheng suddenly felt that Wu Mengze looked a little familiar. When he came back to his senses, he instantly realized that this was the city's well-known entrepreneur and the new general manager of a large taxpayer, Wu Mengze.
Zhou Sheng rubbed his eyes and looked at Wu Mengze. "Are you Wu Mengze?"
Wu Mengze nodded with a smile and said, "Yes. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Bao 'er during this period. You must come to our wedding!"
Zhou Sheng smiled stiffly and nodded. "Okay, okay, okay!"
Everyone else was cursing in their hearts.
They knew that he was rich, but they did not expect him to be so rich. Moreover, what happened to the saying that rich people were fickle?
Why was the richest one the most loyal one? He had liked this one since he was young.
The group did not feel satisfied with this meal. Instead, they felt as if they had drunk a bellyful of vinegar. It was extremely sour.
After the meal, Jiujiu and Wu Mengze sent everyone off and returned to Wu Mengze's house again.
The next day, Wu Mengze had something to do at the last minute and could not send Jiujiu off. He asked Jiujiu to drive herself to work.
Jiujiu was too lazy to drive. The subway station was just downstairs in the neighborhood, so she took the subway to work.
When Jiujiu took the subway, it happened to be rush hour. Jiujiu was squeezed into a corner. Opposite her was a woman holding a baby. Out of professional habit, Jiujiu took a few more glances at her.
The way the woman held the baby was very unprofessional. The way she held the baby was comfortable for herself, but the baby would suffer.
Because of the way she was holding the baby, Jiujiu took a few more glances. With one glance, she noticed that the cheeks of the baby in the woman's arms were very red. Judging from the baby's heavy breathing, the baby seemed to have a fever.
If an adult fever was not treated in time, there would be many complications, let alone a child. Jiujiu saw that the woman did not seem to have noticed the baby's fever. She could not help but remind her, "Madam, your child is having a fever. You need to send him to the hospital for treatment immediately."
If a child's fever was not treated in time, not only would there be many sequelae, but more seriously, the child's life might be in danger. Jiujiu said this out of kindness.
However, what Jiujiu did not expect was that the woman's first reaction after hearing Jiujiu say that the child was having a fever was not worry, but panic. When she heard Jiujiu suggest that she take the child to the hospital, the woman's expression changed. Not only did she not have a trace of gratitude, but she also did not seem to be worried about the child. Instead, she directly scolded, "How can I not know whether my child is sick or not? You jinx. If anything happens to my child, I will tear your mouth apart."
Jiujiu did not take the woman's abuse to heart. She just stared at the feverish child in the woman's arms.
The baby's cheeks were very red, and his breathing was particularly heavy. As long as one was a little careful, they would be able to see that the child was abnormal. Jiujiu did not believe that this woman, as the child's mother, did not realize that her child was so sick.
