Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 719 Mutual Aid
"The director said... the director has met Meng Ke?" Hu Mengdie asked astutely.

“Yes, she came for the interview today with her classmate.” Li Zhuangsheng didn’t hide anything when he saw this. He sat down with Hu Mengdie in his arms. “That’s why I asked you earlier, did you not tell her that ‘Eternal Heroes’ is the one I’m working on?”

“You haven’t even started filming yet, what am I supposed to say to her?” Hu Mengdie sat on Li Zhuangsheng’s lap, her tone carrying a strange undertone. “I was originally planning to get her a supporting role, but I didn’t expect you to arrange the lead role for her directly.”

Li Zhuangsheng grinned and said, "What, are you jealous? Then you can play the female lead, and I'll kick her out tomorrow!"

Hu Mengdie glanced at him sideways: "Don't try to provoke me with those kinds of words. Do you think I'm afraid to act?"

"Then come and act in it! It's only natural for the wife to play the lead role in a film invested in by her husband, isn't it?" Li Zhuangsheng said nonchalantly. "Back in the day, didn't coal mine owners always promote their mistresses like this... Ouch!"

Li Zhuangsheng screamed, "You're my wife, so it's only natural for you to support her! Just let Mengke play other roles later!"

Hu Mengdie then released her grip on Li Zhuangsheng's neck and sneered, "I'm not your wife, we don't even have a marriage certificate."

"Then let me check what the requirements are for immigrating to Saudi Arabia... Okay, okay, okay, no more joking!" Seeing that Hu Mengdie's expression was about to change, Li Zhuangsheng quickly said seriously, "Does your sister not know how to date?"

"Why are you asking about this again? You seem to care about her a lot!" Hu Mengdie raised an eyebrow.

Li Zhuangsheng was speechless for a moment, then said seriously, "We're serious!"

Hu Mengdie shook her head: "She's not in a relationship!"

Li Zhuangsheng blinked: "It's entirely possible that she's secretly dating someone, maybe even online, but she hasn't told you or her classmates."

"That's impossible!"

Hu Mengdie spoke with great certainty.

"Why are you so sure you installed surveillance software on her phone?"

"I'm not that bored!" Hu Mengdie rolled her eyes. "Anyway, she will never, ever be in a relationship, absolutely not!"

Li Zhuangsheng felt a slight doubt. He knew that Hu Mengdie forbade Hu Mengke from dating, at least not yet. Perhaps because the outcome of their previous life was too terrible, Hu Mengdie was worried that Hu Mengke would be hurt by a scumbag again when she was still young and naive.

But what means could Hu Mengdie use to stop Hu Mengke? They've all been through puberty, and everyone knows that children aren't so easily obedient; their specialty is to outwardly comply while secretly doing something they don't intend.

What makes Hu Mengdie so certain?

Judging from her expression, she was definitely not speaking without reason.

"By the way, why did you ask that? What did she say to you?" Hu Mengdie asked.

"No, it's just my gut feeling... or maybe I'm overthinking it." Li Zhuangsheng shook his head, but the doubt in his eyes didn't disappear. "Hey, don't you think your sister has changed?"

"Indeed, she's become much more sensible!"

Hu Mengdie's tone revealed a hint of relief, which was not in vain for all the years she had devoted herself to educating Hu Mengke as both an older sister and a mother.

"She's become more sensible, she does seem much more obedient..." Li Zhuangsheng's tone was somewhat puzzled, "But was this always her personality?"

"People grow up, do you really want her to be as rebellious and infuriating as before!" Hu Mengdie glared at him. "Could you have imagined you'd become this kind of person? Take your hand off, how long are you going to keep touching me? Haven't you had enough after all this time?"

Li Zhuangsheng reluctantly pulled his hand out from under Hu Mengdie's clothes, thinking that he really hadn't touched her enough. "I don't think being too obedient is necessarily a good thing... and I feel that she looks a lot like you?" He couldn't help but slip his hand back under Hu Mengdie's skirt and stroke her leg.

"She's my sister, how could she not look alike?" Hu Mengdie squinted her eyes comfortably and sneered, "What, are you making excuses for mistaking someone for someone else tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhuangsheng wanted to beat his chest and stamp his feet on the spot: "No, we don't have nights either! We haven't had a night in ages! The room is all renovated for you, when are you going to move in?"

If we were to rank the four people's acceptance of the matter, Yi Yunshui would be the most accepting and the most open. Next would be Lin Yuehua, who simply didn't object. Then came Zhu Zhixue, who gradually accepted it through her actions but would never verbally agree.

Finally, there's Hu Mengdie. Hu Mengdie disagrees verbally, and she absolutely disagrees in action. She won't even be too intimate with Li Zhuangsheng.

The last time Li Zhuangsheng and Hu Mengdie had sex was a month ago, when Hu Mengdie was drunk and the two of them were half-heartedly resisting.

Of course, this was also a tacit understanding between the two. How could half a can of fruit beer make someone drunk? Afterwards, scolding Li Zhuangsheng was just Hu Mengdie giving herself a way out.

Hu Mengdie blushed crimson and sneered, "Why move in? To compete with Zhu Zhixue for Xiaolongnu's favor? Keep your filthy thoughts to yourself, don't think I don't know what you're up to!"

Why do you always think of me in such a lewd way?!

"So, where are you picking at right now?"

"Ahem, I call this selfless service to others, without any self-interest!"

Hu Mengdie gently leaned on Li Zhuangsheng's shoulder. Although she wanted to complain, she was powerless to refute him at the moment.

“I misspoke earlier. I wasn’t talking about your appearance, just your demeanor… Actually, if you think about it carefully, you only look alike at first glance, but you don’t quite capture the essence of it.”

Hu Mengdie let out a long sigh of relief and softly leaned into Li Zhuangsheng's arms.

“We’re sisters, isn’t this normal? It’s not like you and Li Xiuyu. Heh.” Hu Mengdie gradually regained her strength.

Li Zhuangsheng nodded, then shamelessly said, "I helped you just now, so why don't you help me out? Let's help each other out, it's a give-and-take situation!"

"Hehe, I didn't ask you for help." Hu Mengdie said sternly.

"Can you please stop being so unreasonable?"

"Isn't this a form of extortion, or a case of forced buying and selling?"

Li Zhuangsheng put his arm around Hu Mengdie's waist and then kissed her lips hard: "If that's what you say, then I'm going to hold you like this and not let go. You can't go back tonight. You can sit in the office with me all night! And I'm going to keep kissing you like this. Let's see if you get annoyed?"

Hu Mengdie smirked: "Are you treating our country's laws as mere decorations?"

Li Zhuangsheng kissed Hu Mengdie again, his face full of roguish charm: "At worst, I'll be sentenced to death. If you want to be a widow, then just let your uncle come and arrest me!"

Hu Mengdie glared at her fiercely, as if she had no other choice, and tied her hair up with her hands: "Fine, you win. Let go, I'm scared of you!"

Li Zhuangsheng then let go of her hand with a grin: "My wife, you're so good to me!"

Hu Mengdie ignored him and half-squatted down to help Li Zhuangsheng. Just then, the office door was suddenly opened, and Li Zhuangsheng was startled, quickly shoving Hu Mengdie under the table!
