Deadly Game: Almighty Boss’s Guide to Making Money

Chapter 1209. The Story of Meng Ye (59)

—Probably!
--No way!

—Perhaps Lu Qing will make a scene and force Meng Ye to divorce his wife, even if he can't marry her.

—Perhaps Lu Qing will marry someone of similar age, continue her relationship with Meng Ye, and her possessiveness will gradually diminish.

—Perhaps he will first divorce Meng Ye, but instead of marrying Meng Ye, he will marry someone of similar age.

—Guess what all the possible endings you've imagined, has Meng thought of them too?

—Leo's view on love: We'll break up sooner or later anyway!
Therefore, Meng is breaking up with him now to cut off all future possibilities.

—She broke up with Lu Qing, and after Lu Qing remarried and had children, it had nothing to do with her anymore.

She won't be sad or disappointed.

—Your idea is based on the premise that Meng Ye likes Lu Qing, but Meng Ye obviously doesn't like Lu Qing that much.

—Oh right, Lu Qing isn't in the Big Dipper.

Watching Lu Qing's figure disappear through the ticket gate, Meng smiled, turned around, and tears instantly fell down her cheeks.

“Meng Ye actually still likes Lu Qing, doesn’t he?” Huang Jingjing said.

“Even if she doesn’t like him, she’ll be touched by how much Lu Qing cares about her,” Lin Xi interjected.

"Who's the one with the stomach bleeding?" Zhang Xuesong asked. "Looking at Meng Ye and Hai Ge's chat history, didn't they say someone had a stomach hemorrhage?"

—Yes, there is such a person.

Who is it?

—Here's a little Easter egg!
—It's not a little Easter egg; the little Easter egg is wrist-cutting.

—It should be Lu Qing.

—It seems to be about how after Meng Ye and Lu Qing broke up, Lu Qing got drunk and suffered a stomach hemorrhage.

How did Meng know that?
—Yeah, shouldn't they stop contacting each other?

—Did you find that out from Sweetie?
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that there was such a thing," Gan Ning said with a smile.

“I thought we were about to pass the level,” Zhang Yutong interjected.

—Pah, pah, pah.

—What kind of challenge are we talking about? I don't know what will happen to Meng Ye and Qi Yang.

—What's the point of passing any level? I still want to see Meng Ye's newcomers.

—What level are you talking about? I also want to know who Meng Ye's first love was.

"We didn't get through, so we moved to another location," Lin Xi laughed.

Location: Internet cafe.

Five days after Lu Qing left.

Meng was video chatting with someone; the person on the other end was Lu Qing.

Lu Qing was holding a bottle of wine, drinking it while video chatting with Meng Ye. His hands were trembling uncontrollably, making him appear somewhat sober.

“Meng Ye, I’ve lost the wallet and photo you gave me. I’ve looked everywhere but I can’t find them.”

"Oh! Did you lose the money? And your bank card?" Meng asked.

"I didn't lose much money, but I lost my bank card, which I got back."

"It's okay, as long as the money isn't lost," Meng said with a smile. "You don't have to lose it. Just throw away the photo and replace it with your current girlfriend's, that's fine! That wallet is handmade genuine leather, and it's quite expensive."

"You don't believe what I said?"

"Whether I believe it or not is irrelevant. Just stop calling me all the time and insisting on video chatting. I'm very busy and really don't have time to chat with you," Meng said with a smile.

—Don't even mention Meng, I don't believe it either.

—This means he has a new girlfriend, and she won't allow him to use the wallet Meng Ye gave him anymore, not to mention there are photos in the wallet.

No wonder Meng refused to give him the photos back then; he knew all along that this day would come.

—Meng Ye is truly a clear-headed romantic, seeing the ending but still unable to resist starting.

——Who says it’s not!

Lin Xi and the others watched the time on the public screen fly by quickly. A month had passed, and Lu Qing, just as Meng Ye had said, had not contacted Meng Ye again.

No messages, no phone calls, no video calls.

Meng Ye's daughter is on summer vacation, and Meng Ye spends all his time with her except for work.

It was the weekend, and Meng Ye was off work. She and her daughter were looking for food in the vegetable garden when the phone suddenly rang.

It's an unfamiliar number.

"Hello," Meng answered the phone.

"I have your roses. Someone ordered them before leaving and asked me to deliver them to you today." The boy on the phone sounded impatient. "I'm at the intersection. Come pick me up and pay five yuan for the ride."

Meng was taken aback, finding it strange.

You're a liar!

"Lu Qing asked me to deliver this to you before she left."

Upon hearing the other party mention Lu Qing's name, Meng finally believed him.

"Girl, an uncle gave your mother flowers. Come with me to pick them up," Meng said directly to his daughter.

"Is it the uncle who followed us when we went to the night market that day?" the daughter asked.

"what?"

“Just over a month ago, you took me to the night market to buy some delicious food, and there was an uncle who followed us around.”

"What kind of uncle?"

"She is short, very thin, and not good-looking."

—Holy shit!
Fortunately, Meng also sent him away.

—What the hell did they send away?

Fortunately, Meng broke up with him in time.

He followed Meng Ye and his daughter, but Meng Ye didn't notice.

Suddenly I realized that it would be great if Lu Qing really had a girlfriend; at least Meng would be safe.

- Exactly.

“Mommy doesn’t know this uncle,” Meng said. “If you see an uncle following you again, tell Mommy immediately, and we can call the police, okay?”

"understood."

"Don't go, Mom will get the roses herself!" Meng said.

“I’ll go with my mom, and I can protect her too.”

"Okay, let's go!"

—If I hadn't heard what Meng Ye's daughter said, I would have been quite willing to make a move.

—Yes, even after leaving, she didn't forget to send flowers to Meng Ye.

—In retrospect, it was just a persistent ghost!
—Is it because you don't want Meng to forget him?
—If it weren't for reminding me of those stalking incidents and deleting him from my contacts, I would really be touched by what he did.

Yes, I can too.

—What day is it today? Is it Meng Ye's birthday?

—It's on the Qixi Festival forum, in the public chat, though the text is very small.

—That person is quite interesting. Lu Qing asked him for a favor, and he actually delivered it.

Is it possible that Lu Qing called him again today?

Meng and her daughter retrieved the flowers. Eleven red roses, vibrant and beautiful.

Meng also placed it on the windowsill and took a few photos.

"Baby, please help me throw away the flowers!"

"It's so beautiful, it's such a waste to throw it away."

"Flowers like these are enough once you've received them; there's no need to treasure them," Meng said with a smile.

—Meng Ye has started beating around the bush again.

—What she means is that such feelings are enough to have experienced, there's no need to cherish them, right?

——Correct answer.

"Never mind, I'll throw it away!" Lin Xi said, picking up the bouquet of roses, walking to the backyard, and tossing them into the trash. "What difference does it make whether they're fresh or withered? Flowers that are picked will die sooner or later anyway!"

Just as he finished speaking, Meng Ye's phone rang.

It was Lu Qing calling.

Meng hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call.
