After being reborn, I'm no longer going to play the role of a spoiled rich kid.

Chapter 59 Confrontation
"No, that's not it!" Yusjia grumbled, defending Meng Weiyuan. "It's Meng Weiyuan!"

Jiang Lingyu: "???"

Shouldn't we be more flexible in our standards?
When Yuska turned around, the person in that spot was also looking at her, and their eyes met in mid-air.

Yustia smiled, her eyes sparkling.

Meng Weiyuan's appearance made the ownership of this oil painting no longer a mystery.

"Mr. Meng really spends a fortune on his wife."

"Not at all, her works shouldn't be collected by others. It's good to keep them at home and look at them."

After the auction ended, You Sijia was pushed by Jiang Lingyu to find Meng Weiyuan.

As she got closer, You Sijia heard Meng Weiyuan talking to a man in a suit in front of her.

She had originally planned to wait a moment until the two finished talking before going over. But as if sensing her presence, Meng Weiyuan's gaze fell on her the moment she approached.

Then, Meng Weiyuan waved to her, signaling her to come over.

Yu Sijia was still a little embarrassed. Since their engagement, this seemed to be the first time she had appeared in such an occasion with Meng Weiyuan.

Those who were originally chatting with Meng Weiyuan saw this, made a few jokes, praised them as a "perfect match," and then wisely left first.

Yu Sijia was walking side by side with Meng Weiyuan, but soon, Meng Weiyuan took her hand.

Yu Sijia looked up in surprise, only to meet Meng Weiyuan's smiling eyes.

"It hasn't been that long since we last met. Don't you recognize me?" Meng Weiyuan said with a smile.

Yustia: "...Still outside..."

She wasn't used to being so intimate with Meng Weiyuan in front of so many people.

Upon hearing this, Meng Weiyuan's hand, which was holding Yu Sijia's, suddenly tightened even more.

“It’s normal for me to hold my wife’s hand in public.” Meng Weiyuan looked down at the top of You Sijia’s head. “You’ll have to get used to it.”

Yustia said "Oh," and then asked, "What brings you here all of a sudden tonight?"

She had never heard Meng Weiyuan mention it before.

Meng Weiyuan raised an eyebrow. "It's on the way. Besides, the house is indeed missing a painting."

None of these statements are true.

Meng Weiyuan is going to Washington tomorrow. He was at the trade fair in Hong Kong this afternoon. He was supposed to fly directly to Washington after finishing his trip in Hong Kong, and even catch up on some sleep after arriving.

However, Meng Weiyuan changed his itinerary at the last minute and decided to visit You Sijia in Nancheng first.

As for the claim that the house is missing anything, that's utter nonsense.

"I definitely have to come and support my wife's paintings," Meng Weiyuan said.

Besides, if he hadn't come today, Meng Weiyuan wouldn't have known that someone still harbored designs on You Sijia.

Yuska's ears turned bright red instantly; she could tell they were burning hot even without touching them.

“What, your wife…” she muttered.

“Isn’t that right?” Meng Weiyuan asked.

Before going abroad to take wedding photos, the couple went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate. Although they haven't held a wedding ceremony yet, there's absolutely no problem with the term "wife".

Yustia: "..."

"So, are you coming back with me tonight?" Yuska asked.

Meng Weiyuan shook his head, "No, I'm going abroad tonight."

"So rushed?" Yusjia asked in surprise. Meng Weiyuan chuckled, "It's alright, I don't fly planes."

Yustia: "..."

The two chatted and laughed as they approached the door.

When Meng Weiyuan looked up and saw the man standing not far away, his gaze turned slightly cold.

It's Gu Yu.

Meng Weiyuan had little interaction with Gu Yu. If it weren't for You Sijia, he probably wouldn't have paid any attention to her at all.

Earlier, when we were inside, Meng Weiyuan arrived a step late and just happened to hear Gu Yu bidding. He looked like he wanted to bid on You Sijia's painting.

Gu Yu wasn't actually waiting for You Sijia at the door on purpose. His driver had gone to get the car and hadn't come over yet. He just happened to bump into You Sijia and Meng Weiyuan who were coming out from inside.

Gu Yu was also somewhat surprised.

Since we've bumped into each other, it's impossible to pretend we didn't see anything.

Yu Sijia introduced, "This is Gu Yu, an older brother who lives next door to me. He grew up with me and Jiang Lingyu." Then she pointed to Meng Weiyuan, though there was no need to, as Yu Sijia's hand was still in Meng Weiyuan's hand. "My husband, Meng Weiyuan."

Meng Weiyuan curled his lips. Although You Sijia only used three words to introduce herself, it was clear that those three words carried far more weight than the many words You Sijia used to introduce Gu Yu.

Men understand men best, and Meng Weiyuan could tell at a glance that the relationship between Gu Yu and You Sijia was not just that of siblings next door.

"Hello, I'm Meng Weiyuan." Meng Weiyuan took the initiative to extend his hand, and casually released the hand that was originally holding You Sijia's, instead putting his arm around You Sijia's waist.

Gu Yu's eyes flickered slightly; he had, of course, noticed Meng Weiyuan's actions.

Unwittingly, the other party had already asserted ownership in front of him.

"Hello, Mr. Meng, I've heard so much about you." Gu Yu's smile faltered slightly.

Meng Weiyuan: "I heard that Mr. Gu is planning to start his own business recently? I wonder if Mr. Gu will still be able to attend my wedding with Jiajia?"

Meng Weiyuan wasn't a petty person, but this had nothing to do with his reluctance to see someone who might have had some connection with You Sijia in the past constantly around him; he just didn't like it.

Gu Yu's eyes darkened slightly, then he smiled and said, "Jiajia is also like my sister. I will definitely be there on time for such an important day."

Yuska listened to the two people beside her exchanging what sounded like coded messages, and she grew somewhat impatient.

She tugged at Meng Weiyuan's sleeve, tilted her head back, and said, "Are you guys done talking? I'm hungry."

This stance is perfectly natural.

Meng Weiyuan smiled slightly; of course he wouldn't refuse You Sijia.

Meng Weiyuan looked at Gu Yu, seemingly somewhat helpless, and said, "Then, Mr. Gu, see you later."

Gu Yu maintained the last bit of a smile on his face as he watched Meng Weiyuan leave in front of him with You Sijia in his arms.

The driver had actually driven over earlier, but seeing his boss still catching up with someone, he couldn't drive up for a moment.

Now that the driver saw the person leaving, he quickly drove over.

But even though the car had stopped in front of his own small business owner, no one got in.

The driver turned his head in confusion and saw that their young boss was still staring at the young couple who had already left in the distance, and hadn't looked away for a long time.

I recognize the young couple in front of me. Isn't that young woman Miss You who used to always follow their boss around?

I heard that the two almost got engaged, but in the end, for some reason, the marriage between the two families fell through.

He hadn't noticed before that the young boss seemed particularly interested in this Miss You. What was going on now?
