Chapter 409: Vow to Chase the Number One Scholar
The person over there walked along the aisle and met the eyes of Wen Xin who was looking over.
Wen Xin quickly stood up: "Oh, Brother Meng, this is such a coincidence, you are also a frequent visitor of Yunzhongji."
Meng Xiang greeted politely, but when his eyes fell on Wang Youlin, his face seemed to stiffen for a moment.
"Youlin, you're here too. What a coincidence. I'm having dinner here with my colleagues today."
After Meng Xiang finished speaking, he stepped back, revealing Song Yunfei with medium-length hair.
Song Yunfei looked at Wang Youlin deeply, and the smile on the corner of his mouth looked so fake that he didn't even bother to pretend.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
Wang Youlin did not stand up, but nodded coldly in response.
Wen Xin greeted him warmly: "Brother Meng, how about we all come together and order another table of new dishes? I'll treat you. It just so happens that I have a request for Lawyer Wang today, so I want to express my sincerity."
She did this firstly to be polite, but most importantly she was really curious about Meng Xiang in this life and wanted to know what the trajectory of his life was.
Wang Youlin and his marriage have lasted until now. What happened in the meantime?
Or is it that his orientation in this life is different from that in the previous life?
"No, no, we just have something to talk about. You guys take your time, Youlin, call me after dinner and we'll go home together."
Before Meng Xiang could finish his words, Song Yunfei had already walked away without saying goodbye.
"Tsk, is this person also a teacher at Beijing Normal University? He must be an artist, right? He has a weird temper."
Wen Xin shook his head with a clicking sound, and then he realized that he was treating Wang Youlin as a close friend again and was being too familiar with him, so he smiled embarrassedly.
"I'm sorry, Youlin. I felt like we hit it off right away. I spoke too much without realizing it. Sorry."
Wang Youlin shook his head indifferently:
"You're right. He's just a person with a weird temper and very rude. When he was young at the Imperial University, he was almost expelled because of a conflict with a student."
"At the time, Meng Xiang asked me to be his lawyer. Later, when I learned about his character, I regretted it."
Wang Youlin's face was full of contempt. Wen Xin was confused and didn't know how to ask.
"Have you seen Meng Xiang here?"
Wang Youlin continued to ask, Wen Xin nodded, and gave a general account of what happened during their last meeting.
"Tan Mu? Is that the Tan Mu from the Peking University Affiliated Hospital? He was the top student in our grade. But in recent years, he has basically not participated in hometown gatherings."
"Maybe it's because he comes from a military family. Later, their family moved to Beijing City and had nothing to do with Yuncheng anymore."
Wen Xin helped him explain. In fact, she knew that Tan Mu was just not good at this and didn't like to participate in this kind of socializing.
"I heard that he has been divorced for many years and has never remarried?" Wang Youlin was also quite gossipy.
Wen Xin nodded with sparkling eyes: "Yes, that's right, so I decided that when I am single again, I will chase him and swear to get the top scholar."
Wang Youlin couldn't help laughing when he saw Wen Xin charging forward with his fists clenched.
"Wen Xin didn't expect that you, such a domineering CEO, have such a fun side. You are over 50 years old, but you still have such passion."
Wen Xin shook his finger disapprovingly.
"Youlin, this idea is wrong. What's wrong with being over fifty? In these fifty years of life, you have spent your youth and hesitations,
After getting rid of all the mess, there are only a few years left to truly enjoy life wisely. "
"We still have a long life ahead of us. We still have at least 30 years left. This is the age when we are financially and mentally capable enough to enjoy life. We must cherish it."
Wen Xin's words made Wang Youlin silent. He ate silently for a long time and then nodded.
"You know what, what you said really makes sense. No one has ever said it from this perspective. Everyone says that at fifty, one knows one's destiny. Life is set, so one should learn to accept it and there is no need to struggle."
Wen Xin drank the juice in big gulps and shook his head repeatedly.
"Youlin, don't think like that. I always feel that the people before me lived in ignorance. Now I want to change the way I live, a way that makes me happy."
"I think it's never too late to start. Think about it, we are the youngest now. We can't just muddle through and wait for death from the age of fifty."
Wang Youlin clinked his juice cup with Wen Xin's and said, "This is an epiphany. Wen Xin, you're very interesting. We must get together more often in the future."
Wen Xin hurriedly expressed his opinion:
"No problem. I have no ties and plenty of time. You can always ask me out when you have time. You see, at fifty, we can still make new friends."
......
Before they knew it, the night was growing late and Wen Xin and Wang Youlin reluctantly ended the dinner.
Seeing Wang Youlin getting up with his bag, Wen Xin couldn't help but remind him, "Youlin, didn't Meng Xiang say he wanted to go back with you? Do you want to give him a call?"
Wang Youlin shook his head: "Forget it, there's no need to bother, let's go our separate ways."
The two walked towards the cashier counter together and happened to pass by Meng Xiang and Song Yunfei's table.
"Youlin, wait a moment, I'm leaving right away, let's go together."
Meng Xiang turned around to get the car keys on the table, but Song Yunfei sat steadily in his seat opposite him, picked up his chopsticks and started eating again. He didn't raise his head or open his eyes, and looked angry.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Meng Xiang's face: "Youlin, how about..."
"It's okay, you go ahead and do your work. Anyway, we both have cars, so we're just going our separate ways."
Wang Youlin glanced at Song Yunfei and Meng Xiang with disdain, then calmly turned and left.
During this period, Wen Xin looked at Meng Xiang and Song Yunfei with deep eyes, which deliberately revealed very blatant confusion, doubt and inquiry.
Finally, it froze into a look of naked suspicion, moving back and forth between Meng Xiang and Song Yunfei several times, and then she watched Meng Xiang's face become colorful under her eyes.
"Brother Meng, you have such a good relationship with this teacher. It's really enviable. I'm leaving now. I won't bother you two anymore. Next time I see you, I'll treat you two to a meal. Please do me the honor."
She didn't mind annoying Meng Xiang. Song Yunfei's unusual behavior would make anyone suspicious.
Wen Xin chased after him for a few steps and caught up with Wang Youlin at the door.
"Wen Xin, I have a lot of stories to tell you, and they are definitely as bloody as yours. Next time, let's get together and have a good chat."
"I'm so happy tonight. I'm able to make a friend like you. It feels like we've known each other for a long time."
Wen Xin hugged her gently, and his eye sockets felt a little hot.
Yes, thank goodness for this life, they were able to become close so quickly.
She is not alone here.
Wen Xin watched Wang Youlin's car go away, turned around to look for his own car, but was startled by two people coming out of the hotel entrance in front of him.
Zhou Yanqing and Wang Manning walked to the back of an SUV and put the things in their hands into the trunk.
The two of them were talking and laughing. They both seemed to have gained a little weight compared to their previous life, and there were very comfortable and warm smiles between their brows.
Wen Xin stared blankly at them getting into the car and leaving, then quickly walked into the Yunzhongji store.
"Waiter, are the two people who just left your boss?"
