Chapter 148 Do you think I'm some kind of turtle in a wishing well?

The sky gradually turned deep blue, and in the bustling city, it was difficult to see a full moon tonight.

In the living room, Mingwei casually leaned back on the sofa, always eager to find out what was going on with Qi Fei.

Before she could even type a few words in Qi Fei's chat box, Ming Chengze made a video call.

Ming Weiyi decisively chose Ming Chengze. The next second, the familiar and friendly faces of Ming Chengze and Ouyang Xin appeared on Ming Weiyi's phone.

"Sis, I think you've become even more beautiful!"

As soon as Ming Chengze opened his mouth, he could easily make Ming Wei very happy.

Following up on what Ming Chengze said, Ouyang Xin jokingly remarked, "That must be because of the harmonious relationship with your brother-in-law. Being nourished by love makes all the difference."

Ming Wei looked at the two lively characters with a very gentle gaze, "Alright, you two, what brings you here today?"

"Have you had dinner yet, according to Beijing time?"

Ming Chengze didn't have anything specific to ask Ming Weiyi; he just wanted to chat with her.

"Not yet. Your brother-in-law has a lot to do today. I'll wait for him to come back so we can eat together."

From Ming Weiyi's words, Ming Chengze could tell that she and Pei Ming were becoming more and more like a married couple.

Previously, Mingwei only referred to someone as Pei Ming, but now she says "your brother-in-law" so smoothly and naturally.

He said in a deliberately sour tone, "Oh, you never used to wait for me to come home for dinner!"

“Ming Chengze, what is your status? How can you compare to my brother-in-law?” Ouyang Xin smiled and glanced at Ming Chengze, then turned her gaze to Ming Weiyi on the screen.

"By the way, how's the thing you and your brother-in-law are plotting going?"

When Ming Chengze saw Pei Ming trending on social media, he was so angry that he wanted to fly back from Paris overnight. He had already planned to beat Pei Ming up to vent his anger and then make Ming Wei divorce Pei Ming.

Fortunately, Mingwei also told him that it was all fake, and that it was all Pei Ming's plan.

Mingwei thought for a moment and replied, "It's proceeding in an orderly manner."

"I mainly wanted to ask you today, next week is your birthday, what kind of birthday present do you want?"

Ming Chengze has already asked all the other less important questions; now this question is the key one.

"I want the stars in the sky, can you give them to me?" At this moment, Ming Wei wanted to tease Ming Chengze on purpose.

"What the hell! Do you think I'm some kind of turtle in a wishing well?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

As soon as Ming Chengze finished speaking, Ming Weiyi and Ouyang Xin burst into laughter.

Actually, Ming Wei didn't care about gifts at all; what she cared about was that Ming Chengze and Ouyang Xin had always thought of her.

Therefore, she would love any birthday gift they gave her.

Neon lights shimmered along the street, and the aroma of food wafted through the air, tempting people's taste buds.

Near the store that Qi Fei wanted to go to, Du Lian parked his car and looked at Qi Fei sitting in the passenger seat.

"Aren't you usually quite talkative? Why haven't you said a word the whole way here today?"

"Being eloquent depends on who you're talking to." Qi Fei said expressionlessly, subconsciously unbuckling her seatbelt.

"Qi Fei, I..."

Before Du Lian could finish speaking, his phone rang at an inopportune moment.

Seeing that the phone displayed an unfamiliar number, Du Lian casually hung up the call.

Just as Du Lian was about to speak again, the phone rang again. Du Lian frowned slightly, but he answered the phone anyway, just in case it was a call from one of his business partners.

"Hello, who is this?"

Du Lian suppressed his impatience, and his tone remained calm.
"You're Du Lian, right? I'm Sisi's friend. She's sick right now. Could you come over?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was a woman's, and it sounded somewhat urgent.

The car was quiet, and the driver's seat and the passenger seat were very close together, so Qi Fei could hear at least 80% of what the woman was saying.

"No, if you're sick, go see a doctor."

Du Lian refused decisively. Qi Fei was right beside him, so there was no way he could go to Zhou Sisi.

"But... she refuses to go to the hospital. She just wants to see you. If you come, she will definitely go to the hospital obediently!"

Seeing that Du Lian's attitude was acceptable, Qi Fei reached out and gestured for me to take the phone.

Du Lian didn't hesitate; he was a sensible person. He handed the phone to Qi Fei.

Qi Fei took Du Lian's phone and held it flat in her hand, then turned on speakerphone.

"Is Du Lian some kind of divine being? Zhou Sisi is sick and wants Du Lian to see her. What, does seeing her add ten years to her life?"

Qi Fei's tone was very unfriendly; she really hated this kind of hypocritical, naive girl.

"you are?"

The other party was clearly asking a question they already knew the answer to, so Qi Fei answered in the way she wanted to hear: "I'm Du Lian's girlfriend. Do you think it's appropriate for him to go see Zhou Sisi now that he's with me?"

When Du Lian heard Qi Fei say that she was his girlfriend at this moment, his eyes lit up for no apparent reason.

No matter what others say, it can't compare to what Qi Fei said herself.

"But, considering that Sisi is really quite ill, could you please let Du Lian take her to the hospital? I know you're not a heartless person."

Qi Fei couldn't help but roll her eyes. Trying to morally blackmail me? No way!
"Now that she's sick and we're sending her to the hospital, is the next step to pretend she doesn't have many days left, so that Du Lian and she can get back together?"

"You! You cursed Sisi, how could you be so vicious!"

"I'm just that vicious. And let me tell you, no matter what, Du Lian won't go to Zhou Sisi today. What's the point of her acting so pitiful at her age?"

Knowing she couldn't reason with Qi Fei, the woman took a deep breath. "Give the phone to Du Lian!"

"Warn Zhou Sisi for me: don't provoke me again and again. If there's a next time, I'll make a PowerPoint presentation about her dirty deeds and post it online, making her famous nationwide!"

"you!"

Qi Fei had thoroughly enjoyed her verbal sparring, and ignoring the fact that the other person was now speechless with anger, she hung up the phone.

"I helped you again today," Qi Fei said, then casually tossed Du Lian's phone to him.

"Just to help me?" Du Lian stared straight at Qi Fei.

He suddenly thought how much better it would have been if he hadn't turned his face away when Qi Fei leaned down to kiss him last time.

Damn it, I was just too shameless back then!

From Du Lian's eyes, Qi Fei knew what he wanted to express, but she wouldn't let Du Lian succeed so easily.

"if not?"

Qi Fei finished speaking lightly, then opened the passenger door and got out of the car.

She just deliberately told Du Lian that she was his girlfriend in front of him, so that Du Lian would gradually get used to this identity of hers.

When the time is right, she will deny the relationship whenever someone asks about it.
