Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 823: Chapter 494: Solution/Trick_3

Mr. Hang paused and stopped speaking.

"Grandpa means that if you don’t interfere, I won’t be able to get married in this lifetime, right?" Hang Menglin smiled indifferently, "It doesn’t matter, if I can’t get married, I’ll live on my own, much happier without any burdens."

Mr. Hang snorted unhappily, "Do you think that’s appropriate? You might not care, but what about the reputation of the Hang family?"

"Yu Zheng is someone Grandpa should know very well. Since his divorce, he changes women as often as clothes, and Grandpa wants me to marry such a man?"

"Xiao Lin, are you imagining marriage to be too perfect?" Mr. Hang stared directly at his granddaughter, "If the other party didn’t see that you were clear of troubles, would they even consider it?"

"Still under consideration?" Hang Menglin laughed, "I can’t believe I’m so unpopular that even a divorced man nearly twenty years older than me needs to consider it? Haha... Grandpa, don’t you find it amusing?

Forget it, I just came back to confirm if you already knew about my transfer, it seems I was right about everything, so I have nothing to feel guilty about. Grandpa, take care." Saying this, she stood up, ready to leave.

"Stay where you are!" Mr. Hang was so angry his beard trembled, "How did you become like this? Is madness contagious? But you don’t see yourself in a mirror, can you compare with Feng Tianzhi?"

"I never intended to compare with him." Hang Menglin looked at Mr. Hang seriously, "Grandpa, to be honest, I’ve learned some things from him that I lacked, and I understand why my past self was unlikable.

I will strive to move forward in the future, and of course, I hope to become the pride of the Hang family one day, but I also won’t rule out being the invisible member of the Hang family all this time. No matter what, I won’t regret my choices."

Mr. Hang looked at his granddaughter worriedly, "Xiao Lin, have you fallen for Feng Tianzhi?"

"Why does everyone ask me that?" Hang Menglin laughed bitterly, "Alright, I’ll tell you the truth, I have fallen for a man, but it’s not Feng Tianzhi."

"Who is he?" Mr. Hang raised his eyebrows high.

Hang Menglin sighed heavily, "I won’t tell you who it is for now, sooner or later you’ll find out, but there’s unlikely to be a future between us, he probably won’t like me."

"You..." Mr. Hang was about to say something when the phone rang, so he waved at Hang Menglin, "You go wait outside, have dinner at home tonight."

"Alright." Hang Menglin responded and stepped out.

...

At Liangyou Hotel, Qi Bin sat by the window, absentmindedly staring outside. Seeing Luo Ye approaching from afar, he quickly stood up to greet her, "Ye’er, I’m really sorry for asking you to come out knowing how busy you are."

"Brother Qi, why be so formal." Luo Ye smiled at him, "Let’s go inside and talk."

Once seated, Qi Bin smiled apologetically, "Ye’er, I had no choice but to come looking for you because of Qianqian..."

Luo Ye interrupted him, "You’re not asking me to set her up with Mr. Qu, are you? Let’s not discuss that, I don’t get involved in matchmaking."

"No, no." Qi Bin waved his hand hurriedly, "If I asked Ye’er to do that, the boss would skin me alive.

I wanted to ask Ye’er to help introduce me to Qu Yue for a private chat, and also, there’s this..." he said as he pulled out a small canvas bag, "the boss asked me to bring this to you."

Luo Ye received the canvas bag with a face full of surprise, "Brother Qi met Ye Xuan?"

Qi Bin nodded, "Yes, a while ago I had the privilege of visiting the island with Director Lei."

"How is he now? Has he lost weight? Gotten darker?... " Luo Ye laughed embarrassedly, "I’m sorry, I haven’t seen him in a long time, I’m a bit curious."

Qi Bin laughed, "If you weren’t at least a little anxious, the boss would be crying. He’s gotten a bit darker, but he hasn’t lost much weight; in fact, he looks even more handsome."

"So he’s become even more of a flirt?" Luo Ye rolled her eyes playfully and snorted, "When he gets back, I’m putting a mask on him before he goes out, too dangerous otherwise."

"Ye’er, you’re really amusing." Qi Bin couldn’t help but laugh, "The boss is really lucky to have met you."

Luo Ye looked at Qi Bin seriously, "Brother Qi, introducing you to Boss Qu isn’t a problem, but you have to promise not to cause any trouble for him."

"Don’t worry, I really just want to discuss with him how to make Qianqian give up her infatuation. I know Qianqian well enough that she wouldn’t do something to make it awkward for Ye’er."

"Brother Qi, I prefer to lay it all out upfront, I hope you don’t mind." Luo Ye said as she took out her phone and called Qu Yue, briefly explaining the matter, and Qu Yue readily agreed to come over and meet Qi Bin.

A quarter of an hour later, Qu Yue arrived, first greeting Luo Ye before smiling at Qi Bin, "Hello, I’m Qu Yue."

"Hello, I’m Qi Bin." Qi Bin stood up politely, "It’s truly presumptuous of me, I apologize for the trouble my younger sister has caused you."

Qu Yue laughed, "Mr. Qi, are you from the hometown of Confucius and Mencius?"

Qi Bin waved his hand awkwardly, "I’m embarrassed, I’ve been forced to study classical literature by my grandpa since I was little, sometimes I can’t help but sound pretentious."

"Haha, you and Qi Qianqian really are different." Qu Yue said seriously, "Brother Qi, since you’re Luo Luo’s friend, you’re also my friend. With you, I won’t waste words. Regarding Qi Qianqian, I’m really not interested, so if there’s a way to make her give up, I’m fine with whatever you say, even if it means getting a beating."

While the two men chatted formally, Luo Ye quietly opened the small package Ye Xuan had sent her. Inside were various trinkets made from love beads: bracelets, keychains, bag chains... all sorts of things...

At the bottom, there was a necklace with a finely polished bullet-shaped charm strung on a thin silver chain. As she looked at it, her eyes grew misty. Only when you truly care for someone would you want to make such things only girls would.

To hide her emotions, she quickly wrapped up the package and looked around, accidentally locking eyes with Hang Menglin, who was sitting at a distance.

The other woman was sitting face-to-face with a middle-aged man. When she saw Luo Ye looking over, her expression changed slightly. She said something to the man and then walked over to Luo Ye.

"Our instructor is coming over." Luo Ye whispered a reminder, stood up, and smiled at the approaching Hang Menglin, "Hello, Coach Hang."

Hang Menglin nodded to her and looked at Qi Bin, "Xiao Bin, why are you here?"

"Sister Menglin, what a coincidence..." Qi Bin smiled lightly and pointed to the seat beside him, "Why don’t you join us."

"Then I won’t stand on ceremony." Hang Menglin sat down next to Qi Bin and looked at Luo Ye with concern, "You have a mission to execute tomorrow, go home early and rest tonight, don’t let it affect your work."

Luo Ye answered happily, "I will, thank you, Coach."

Hang Menglin hesitated for a moment and then looked at Qi Bin, "Xiao Bin, there’s something... something I’d like to ask you for help with."

Qi Bin smiled politely, "If it’s something I can help with, I’ll do my best. Please go ahead, Sister Menglin."

Hang Menglin glanced awkwardly at Luo Ye and Qu Yue, then, gritting her teeth, looked at Qi Bin, "Could you pretend to be my boyfriend, would that be okay?"

"Ah?" Qi Bin looked at her blankly, momentarily unable to react.
