Meng Yuexue hadn't seen Tang Muyan for a while. In theory, Meng Yuexue should be happy. After all, it's a bit strange to always see someone who has feelings for you. But now, it feels even stranger not to be in contact. Well, it has to be said that habits are something one should avoid.

Meng Yu sighed in relief as he set down the paintbrush in his hand. On the table lay a half-finished manuscript.

"Incoming call, one idiot, incoming call, one idiot, incoming call, idiot..." The magical ringtone of his special phone caused Meng Yu Gui to pick up Tang Mu Yan's call and blurt out, "Idiot, what's up?"

"Xiao Wu Dui, have you been eating gunpowder?"

"Go to your little black pile, you're the little black pile."

"Okay, okay, Xiaoyue, go home. Do you want to go out to play?"

"Where are you going?"

"Recently, my family had a cocktail party. My dad insisted that I bring a date, otherwise he would take charge and find one for me."

Meng frowned, with black lines all over his face, and said, "Your dad was talking about girls, right?"

"Well, he didn't say anything."

"I'm not going, I'm afraid of being killed by the glare of your dad." Meng Yuguai calmly took a sip of the fruit tea Tang Muyan had brought him. "You should look for Brother Wenren."

"Tsk, don't you know which company he's from?"

"I didn't ask, what's wrong?"

"It's my father's company, dear."

"Ah?"

"Yes, that's right. That's what I mean. So even as a senior member, he needs to attend the meeting. I can only ask you to go instead."

"I shouldn't go, right? What's the point of me, a salaried worker, attending your upper-class social gathering?"

"Um... coincidentally, our family is going to shoot a microfilm, so if you come, I can recommend your clothing."

"Really?" Meng Yu Gui jumped up from his chair. "Are you sure your dad will use the clothing from an online store?"

"Yeah, maybe, after all, the micro-movie my family shot was to promote the jewelry, so as long as the clothes look good. Besides, there's still me, right?"

"Alright, it's settled then."

Meng Yueling put down his phone and excitedly spun around in circles.

However... it seems like I can't attend this kind of banquet dressed as a student, huh?

Just like that, Meng Yue returned home and couldn't sleep much the whole night in excitement...

The next day, when Jiang Yiran got off the car and saw Meng Yuegui returning, he suddenly felt that his choice of this shield was truly not bad. Look at those peach blossom eyes, look at that little dress. If someone didn't know, they would definitely think it was some famous designer's haute couture.

My younger brother Xiao Rui is quite handsome, hop in the car."

"Hmm."

"Your talent in designing men's clothing is not bad either, so why do you insist on only selling women's clothing?"

Meng Yuezhi touched his nose and said, "They're also starting to sell men's clothing, aren't they?"

"That's right, why not make money if you have the means?"

"You used to hate materialism the most. Why are you bringing it up now?"

Uh... this isn't about that... It's for your own good. Jiang Yiran furrowed his brows and bit his lip. "Please don't mistake me for a businessman like my father."

Resolutely, after all, he is your father.

"I know," he said.

"I know I don't really have the right to advise you, but what's in the past should stay in the past. I don't want you to end up like me," Meng Yueguilu said with a faint smile, as if he were not talking about himself.

"If you don't tell me what happened to your family, I won't ask. At least Xianguo knows. Just like how he doesn't know about your cross-dressing fetish, at least I know. Xiao Rui, though you left, you do know what happened to my family. Do you really think I can let it go?"

"Why are you able to let go of life and death but unwilling to learn to forgive?"

Life and death are beyond one's control, but a mistake is still a mistake. Perhaps it's not that I cannot forgive him, but that I refuse to let myself off the hook. I am unwilling to forgive the cowardly self who only knows how to hide in the shadows.

Meng Yuxuan's eyes rolled, and he patted Jiang Yiran's shoulder.

Xiao Yuegui, you said you have a lot of face, so this young master personally drove for you.

"Stop it, you're just afraid that your family's driver will inform your father that the companion you brought along is me, a grown man."

"Hey, you, with that appearance, do you think you're a man?"

"Why am I not manly?" Meng Yu Gui glared at Jiang Yi Ran and said, "Let me tell you, if you keep saying this, I won't go. I don't want this opportunity anymore, let's both self-destruct in this fire."

"Even the jade and stones burn together. Who is the stone, and who is the jade?"

Of course, I'm here to help. Do you still want me to elaborate on that?

"Alright, alright, whatever you say is right. Young master, we've arrived. Please get off the car."

"Okay, let's go." Meng Yuexuan said in a playful tone. This line had a similar effect to Cai Ming's "help me get up". Jiang Yiran quickly got out of the car and helped Meng Yuexuan out.

"Come, let's go." Jiang Yiran said, pulling Meng Yuegui's hand.

"Are you crazy? Still think we're not attention-grabbing enough?"

"Go big or go home. I have to say, you're not as good as you used to be, you've turned chicken."

"No, after all, this is a big occasion and it's an event that your dad values. Isn't it not good?"

"It's fine, your dad and him are in completely different industries. Even if the old man's reach is long, it can't extend there."

"Um, my dad's small company wouldn't dare to compare with your dad's."

"I actually wish my dad didn't have so much money, attracting such disgusting people."

"Alright, go in."

"Okay!" Jiang Yiran held Meng Yuegui's hand and walked in like this. The hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone was looking at them. Meng Yuegui's hand instantly perspired, feeling extremely uncomfortable under those gazes. It's ironic that he thought indulgence would make him numb, no longer afraid of inquisitive gazes. But now it seems that it was just a temporary solution to his anxiety."

A light laughter broke the tranquility with a "ha." Meng Yuegui turned towards the sound and surprisingly, it was Tang Muyan!

This is really unexpected.

Tang Muyan disregarded the complex expressions of the people around him and approached Meng Yueguo, holding a bouquet of white roses in his hands. He handed them to him, saying, "These are for you, my darling."
