I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 251 Incidentally, I also met his father...

"I go..."

Yu Lingxue gasped in amazement, her eyes and expression filled with shock...

So Zhou Heng isn't the only heir; Yin Mengran is too...

The fact that he can say something like that now shows how much he likes and trusts Yin Mengran...

She's clearly just her son's girlfriend. Even if she's taken in as his goddaughter, why would she just hand over the family business like that?

Yu Lingxue couldn't help but sigh inwardly, wondering whether Yin Mengran was lucky or unlucky...

Her bad luck stemmed from the tragedy of losing both parents at such a young age. Had she not met Zhou Heng, her life would have been a living hell, a constant state of misery...

She was lucky to meet Zhou Heng... She now has a place to live, money to spend, a loving boyfriend and mother, and even the prospect of inheriting the company in the future...

This has truly changed my destiny completely...

However, Yin Mengran is a good person with a kind heart, and there is nothing wrong with everything she has done. She deserves all of this.

"Don't tell her about this yet, I'm afraid it will put pressure on her. If your goal is to be with her, then please help her as much as possible, okay?"

"Okay...I understand."

Yu Lingxue nodded. She knew this news absolutely couldn't be told to anyone else; it was best if only she knew, so she would maintain absolute control...

She had no reason to refuse; this was the path she felt was the best, the one she was most satisfied with. She wouldn't have to struggle, wouldn't have to get into a difficult situation, wouldn't have to engage in vicious competition, and it also offered a bright future.

She was so glad she came today; she got this unexpected opportunity! That's the importance of making the right choice!

"Alright, go play with them."

"Okay!"

Yu Lingxue breathed a sigh of relief, quickened her pace, and caught up with Yin Mengran and Shen Linyi ahead of her.

Yin Mengran looked at Yu Lingxue and saw that her complexion seemed much better than before, as if she had heard some good news.

"What's wrong? You seem pretty happy. What did you talk about with your mom?"

"Uh...it's nothing, just chatting...about how our relationship is. Aunt Liu is quite concerned about you, so I told her we have a pretty good relationship."

Yu Lingxue made up a random excuse and got away with it, and Yin Mengran didn't suspect anything and nodded in agreement.

The group spent a long time playing outside and had a great time. Yu Lingxue could sense that her relationship with Yin Mengran had improved, but she still couldn't exchange a single word with Shen Linyi...

Liu Wei escorted the three of them back, and then prepared to leave herself.

Shen Linyi lowered her head and whispered goodbye, "Auntie, please drive carefully on your way back...be safe..."

"Okay, I got it. Xiao Linyi, go back and tell Liu Ling that we'll visit her another day."

"okay."

Yu Lingxue stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said softly, "Aunt Liu... I look forward to seeing you again..."

Liu Wei smiled and nodded, replying, "Yes, me too, good girl."

When Yin Mengran came to Liu Wei, Liu Wei's face was full of doting affection as she hugged Yin Mengran and asked in her ear:

"Honey, you're going out to play tomorrow, right? You should be free tonight, right?"

"Hmm, nothing's wrong, Mom. What's wrong?"

"I'll pick you and Zhou Heng up for dinner tonight..." Liu Wei trailed off, lowering her voice to say:

"And while you're at it, meet his father..."

"what..."

Yin Mengran was suddenly stunned, her eyes widening as she was momentarily speechless, almost unable to react...

They had just talked about Zhou Heng's father today, and they thought it would be a long time before they could see him again...

So now we're meeting tomorrow?!

I wasn't even ready...

"Ah...okay, okay..."

Yin Mengran nodded, stammering her agreement, though she was actually starting to get nervous...

Just like Shen Linyi and Yu Lingxue were when they met Liu Wei...

She and Liu Wei were already very close, like mother and son, but with Zhou Heng's father... they were complete strangers...

What should I call him? Maybe I should call him "uncle"... After all, Zhou Heng's father probably doesn't even know that my mother has taken me in as her goddaughter...

How embarrassing would it be if they didn't acknowledge her as their goddaughter...

She's verbally agreeing, but in her heart she's already starting to plan what to wear tomorrow...

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Okay, you guys go back now, be careful."

Liu Wei patted Yin Mengran's head and gently comforted her.

Then, he drove away from there.

Yin Mengran stood there, watching the car drive away, feeling somewhat dazed...

I'm so nervous... I'm so scared...

Her heart was pounding in her chest; she had absolutely no idea what to do. Her heart was calling out for Zhou Heng... she needed him so badly...

Yu Lingxue stepped forward, came to Yin Mengran's side, gently put her hand on her shoulder, and asked:

"what happened?"

"Ah...it's nothing, let's go. Have you already decided where to eat?"

Yin Mengran realized what was happening, shook her head, and looked at Yu Lingxue.

"Yeah, they just mentioned it in the group chat, they all went there, let's go too."

"it is good."

It was already around 7 PM. Everyone had discussed where to have dinner in the group chat, and they all headed there...

Yin Mengran and her two companions were relatively close to their destination, only two kilometers away.

That's a restaurant that's been really popular online lately, with high ratings and lots of positive reviews, which is why I chose it.

They were the first to arrive, found a small private room, and sat down.

Yin Mengran still looked worried, concerned about their meeting tomorrow.

Hello! We're here!

Just then, Zhu Tao's voice came from outside the door. The three of them turned to look and saw Liao Haomiao and Zhu Tao walking in hand in hand.

The two of them seemed to be covered in all sorts of souvenirs: hats, bracelets, glasses, a balloon in their hand, and several bags...

It's easy to see that the two of them were having a great time at all the various photo spots...

"I brought you gifts..."

Zhu Tao handed the bags in her hand to the others one by one. Inside were gifts she had carefully selected. Although they were not very expensive, they were still a kind of souvenir.

Yin Mengran kept staring at the door. She hadn't seen Zhou Heng for just one day, and she missed him terribly; she wanted to see him right now...

It just occurred to me that they used to go everywhere together and had never been apart for this long...
