Rebirth: I became rich by farming

Chapter 677: Chapter 677 Settling Accounts (4/5)

Even though the front desk had noticed that this person had come many times with Fan Tianyu, she still remembered the staff manual’s principle: if you have the password, you can enter; without the password, not even the boss is allowed in. Even if the person at the door was an acquaintance, she never considered letting her in.

Now, having inquired with Fan Tianyu, the receptionist was even more certain that she had done the right thing. She looked at the stern faces of the few people and asked, "Boss, what should we do? We can’t just let them stand at the door trying the password forever. I’m not worried that they’ll figure it out, but I’m afraid they might lock it after too many attempts or break it. We will also have guests coming to eat later, and it’s not good to have them blocking the entrance."

Fan Tianyu glanced at Mei Mengzhen, then said, "Find a few people and drive them away. It’s not a good look to have them loitering at the restaurant’s entrance."

The receptionist nodded, about to call someone over, when she asked, "What should I say if these three people ask about it later?"

"Just say there’s no such person here," Fan Tianyu replied without looking back as he headed to the private room.

However, they couldn’t just stay inside forever, could they? After all, it was quite possible that these people were waiting to catch them the moment they stepped out.

But so what if that was the case? They didn’t care. They could simply drive away. These people couldn’t possibly catch up to their car.

After returning to the private room, neither of them mentioned anything about Mei Yifan and her family. However, before they ran into Wang Qiuhe, Fu Rui and He Yiran bumped into them first.

Upon seeing He Yiran, Wang Qiuhe immediately went up to greet her, "Sister Yiran, Sister Ruirui, you guys are at Xiyuan today too."

After greeting them, Wang Qiuhe noticed Fu Hao and Jin Zhan who came out a bit later and quickly greeted them as well, "Brother Hao, Brother Zhan."

Today’s incident was something Mei Mengzhen didn’t mention at all, but that didn’t mean Yan Keke wouldn’t. Almost right after she left Mei Mengzhen’s house, she told He Yiran. In other words, He Yiran knew early on that the two had fallen out. She wasn’t keen on dealing with Wang Qiuhe before, and now she had even less reason to. When Wang Qiuhe spoke to her, He Yiran completely ignored her.

Wang Qiuhe felt quite dissatisfied with He Yiran’s attitude, "Sister Yiran, I’m talking to you; why are you ignoring me? Are all wealthy people this arrogant?"

He Yiran smiled in her direction and then said, "You’re right, wealthy people are that arrogant."

Since He Yiran was ignoring Wang Qiuhe, her friends, who were friends of friends, were even less likely to deal with Wang Qiuhe. Fu Hao and Jin Zhan might not have known what was going on, but they followed the unified front and did not engage. Following He Yiran’s lead, they all got into their car. After they left, Mei Yifan finally came to her senses, "Qiuhe, who were those people? They seemed to have a good demeanor and must be quite wealthy, right?"

"Yeah, they definitely look wealthy. The one just now, named He Yiran, her family runs a hotel. When we went to Ning City for fun, we stayed at their hotel. The ones next to her are her friends, and Sister Zhenzhen knows them too," Wang Qiuhe explained.

Wang Qiuhe had tried to indirectly ask He Yiran about what she did, but He Yiran wasn’t a fool and wouldn’t tell, of course. Since Wang Qiuhe had only seen the hotel her family ran, she naturally assumed that’s what they did.

The two men with her, however, piqued Mei Yifan’s interest, "Qiuhe, those two men looked very wealthy. It would be great if you could get one of them to be your husband. Does Zhenzhen know them too? Ask her to introduce you."

Wang Gaofeng furrowed his brows upon hearing this, "How old is Qiuhe?"

Of course, he also didn’t deny that these two did look different from the people around them. That aura of wealth was unmistakable at a glance, so when Mei Yifan continued persuading them, Wang Gaofeng didn’t explicitly express opposition in his words.

But Wang Qiuhe was frowning deeply. In her heart, these people listened to Mei Mengzhen, and she had just offended Mei Mengzhen; there was no way Mei Mengzhen would introduce anyone to her.

Mei Yifan, however, didn’t take it seriously, "Our family is in such a mess, but when have we really ever split up? There’s no rush now that we’ve quarreled; there will always be a time to reconcile. Then, introduce them, it doesn’t matter. You’re still young. Don’t take it to heart. Generally, wealthy men won’t get married so early."

Upon hearing this, even Wang Gaofeng began to agree. However, his dissatisfaction with Fan Tianyu and the others only grew, "So it turns out these people were inside after all, deliberately sending someone to block us from entering and lying that the person wasn’t there. We’ll see how I deal with them later."

Wang Qiuhe also expressed her impatience, "Dad, what do we do now, keep waiting? I didn’t even get to register for school today."

Mention of registration only increased Wang Gaofeng’s impatience, "Who told these people not to answer the phone? It’s their fault you couldn’t register. Let’s catch them and settle the score."

What’s more important is that Wang Gaofeng wasn’t very supportive of learning makeup from the start. First, the tuition was expensive; second, it was too far from home. He was dissatisfied with both points. With today’s events, not being able to register seemed logical, didn’t it?

"Let’s come back to Jiangcheng together tomorrow after the meal, and insist that Fan Tianyu take care of the school for you," Mei Yifan was determined. She couldn’t believe her sister would be so heartless, "Have Fan Tianyu pay for it, otherwise we won’t accept it."

As Mei Yifan was plotting and Wang Gaofeng was hesitating, it became perfectly normal for Wang Qiuhe, with nothing else to do, to miss the registration that afternoon.

The family of three waited at the entrance of Xiyuan for quite a while again, and finally, as Xiyuan was closing, they managed to catch Fan Tianyu and his group leaving.

This time, the three were clever; they waited for their car. As soon as Fan Tianyu and his group arrived, Mei Yifan and her family immediately caught them.

On a dark and windy night, when silence enveloped the streets, a few people suddenly sprang out of the darkness. What would your reaction be?

She didn’t know about others, but Mei Mengzhen’s immediate response was to slap the other person.

Mei Mengzhen might not have clearly seen who it was, but that irritating silhouette and the figures she just saw on the surveillance were, if not mistaken, almost certainly Mei Yifan’s family.

So when she was startled, her knee-jerk reaction was to hit the person. It didn’t seem too excessive.

Mei Mengzhen’s strength was indeed great. Storing up her frustration, her slap was quite unforgiving. As the person neared her, she screamed in fright, took a large step back, and swung a forceful slap. In the dead of night, the ’smack’ of the slap was especially clear.

After Mei Mengzhen landed the blow, the other party immediately screamed out in pain.
