Ning Meng woke up early in the morning and saw the messages in the "Happy Idiots" group.
Qi Shan: [It's the seventh day. There are only two more days until the end of the month. I'm waiting for the missus to pay up!]
Zhen Shanmei: [Yeah. If I lose money, I'll go buy a bag. Hermes just released a platinum bag.]
Qi Shan: [How much? Take the bag that she's paying me!]
Zhen Shanmei: [?]
Zhen Shanmei: [Isn't that obvious? That bag costs 300,000 RMB. Yours is only 200,000 RMB. I'm going to use your bank card for the other 100,000 RMB.]
Qi Shan: [Honey, please treat my concubine better. Sob sob sob …]
Su Ye: [What if she loses?]
Qi Shan: [How could she lose?]
Zhen Shanmei: [If she loses, she should go and buy a bag to comfort herself.]
Qi Shan: [??]
Ning Ke: [Mrs. Huo will not lose! She will definitely win.]
Qi Shan: [Are you stupid? If she wins, you'll lose money!]
Ning Ke: [You're the stupid one.]
Qi Shan: [Forget it. Why are you talking to an idiot like me? Missus, come out soon. You're going to lose more than a million RMB in two days. What do you think? Ning Meng]
Ning Meng was speechless.
This Qi Shan had been mocking her every day ever since they had made the bet.
He was crazy.
She got out of bed and stretched her body. Then, she slowly replied: [Get your concubine ready. I'm afraid that you'll have to rely on your wife to support you!]
After sending this message, she threw her phone aside and went to wash up.
After washing up, she realized that there were a few missed calls on her phone. They were all from Qi Shan.
The "Happy Idiots" group was in an uproar.
Su Ye: [I just received news. Due to the government's policies, the land in the Western Suburbs is no longer suitable for building residential buildings. Whoever buys that land will lose everything!]
Su Ye: [Missus, did you receive the news in advance? Ning Meng]
Su Ye: [Missus, you're too awesome!]
Qi Shan: […!! WTF!!! It's true!!!]
Qi Shan: [How is that possible?]
Qi Shan: [This news was just released this morning. There was no news about it before this. How is this possible?! Madam, where did you learn about this?]
Ning Ke: [Mrs. Huo has always been amazing. Are you convinced now? Qi Shan]
Qi Shan: […]
Zhen Shanmei was a little slow: [So, did we lose or win the bet?]
Qi Shan: [We lost, the madam won! Whoever buys that piece of land will basically become a hot potato, and they will have to pay a few hundred million!]
Zhen Shanmei: [… I knew it. Meng Meng's money isn't easy to earn.]
Ning Meng: [Does your face hurt? Qi Shan]
Qi Shan: [It doesn't matter if it hurts or not. I just want to know how you know about this.]
How did you know?
Of course, it was because he knew the plot.
But he definitely couldn't say that.
Ning Meng bragged in the group chat: [I don't know. I told you, I just counted it with my fingers. Do you believe me now?]
Qi Shan: […]
Qi Shan: [Didn't you know that a few days ago, when the people in the company heard that it was because of you that the boss did not buy that piece of land, they were all calling you a vixen. Now that the news has come out, the whole company's opinion has changed. Everyone is saying that you either have an unknown background, or you are a lucky star!]
Ning Meng: […]
So, those praises about Su Tiantian in the original novel had finally landed on her head?
She had nothing to do in the morning, and when it was noon, she ordered a takeaway.
The Huo Group was quite far from Yuxiu Garden, and it was not practical for Huo Beichen to come home to have lunch with her every day. So, when he came home, Ning Meng would go to the company to look for him.
However, Ning Meng planned to go to Lemon Entertainment in the afternoon, so she just had a simple lunch at home.
At twelve o 'clock, the takeaway arrived.
When she opened the door, the delivery boy seemed to be exhausted. When he was handing the takeaway to her, his hand loosened, and the takeaway fell to the ground.
The delivery boy panicked. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll help you clean up. I'll pay for the takeaway."
He took off his shoes and went into the house to find a mop to help Ning Meng clean up, looking apologetic.
Ning Meng wanted to say that she could do it herself, but looking at the apologetic look on his face, if she did not let him clean up, he would probably feel guilty.
Ning Meng did not say anything and just held his hand.
As it was winter, it was a bit cold outside the door. When the delivery boy entered, he closed the door behind him.
About two minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
The voice sounded a little anxious as he knocked on the door and shouted, "Sister, sister, are you there? Sis, I know you're at home. If you don't open the door, I'll call the police! "
Ning Meng was confused.
Why did this voice sound like Ning Ke?
When she walked over and opened the door, she heard Ning Ke yelling, "Did something happen? I really called the police! I called the police! "
As soon as she said this, Ning Meng opened the door and saw Ning Ke standing outside with an anxious look on her face. Their eyes met …
Ning Meng was confused.
Ning Ke was confused.
Before Ning Meng could say anything, Ning Ke grabbed her arm and looked into the room cautiously. "Sis, are you okay?"
"…"
The delivery boy was almost done cleaning up. He stood there awkwardly, and when he saw Ning Ke looking at him with hatred, he put down the mop and said, "Miss Ning, I'm very sorry. I'll go make another one for you now."
Ning Meng nodded. "Sure."
The delivery boy then quickly left.
When he walked past Ning Ke, he felt that this woman's gaze was like a cat protecting its cub. The delivery boy was so scared that he quickened his steps and left.
After he left, Ning Ke let out a sigh of relief.
Ning Meng's mouth twitched. "What's wrong?"
Ning Ke looked at her and said anxiously, "I saw the delivery boy enter the door. He has been in there for two minutes, and he has not left. I was afraid that you would be assassinated again, so I came to take a look."
Hearing this, Ning Meng was stunned.
She frowned and looked at Ning Ke. "How did you know that the delivery boy had been in the door for two minutes?"
Ning Ke was speechless.
How did she know?
Of course, she saw it.
Although she knew that Huo Beichen's bodyguards were very powerful, Ning Ke was still worried.
Eight years ago, Huo Beichen had not been able to protect her sister well. Now …
She would come early in the morning and stay until the lights in Ning Meng's room went out at night.
Her sister had finally come back. She would not let anything happen to her sister again!
But now, how was she going to explain?
Ning Ke hesitated for a while, her eyes darting around. In the end, she came up with a weak excuse. "I … I was just taking a walk …"
