Chapter 20: Why Did You Divorce
Shi Juan shook hands with Mayor Gao and exchanged greetings, then turned his attention to Meiliang. His eyes were cold and his expression was far from friendly.
Meili took the initiative to say hello: "Teacher Shi, what a coincidence."
Shi Juan said: "I am also one of the investors, so it is not a coincidence. However, Mr. Ming is very busy, so I am afraid he has forgotten this matter."
Whenever she spoke, she would get criticized. Meimei felt that it was better for her not to speak.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Mayor Gao smoothed things over and said, "Let's go in first and see if Dai Siming needs help."
The three of them turned around and walked towards the farm. Meili deliberately slowed down and dropped some distance. Teacher Shi didn't want to see her, so she was no longer an eyesore.
Before he reached the office, Dai Siming came up to him. After briefly greeting the two people walking in front, his attention was focused on Meimei. He was obviously very happy to see Meimei appear.
"Mr. Ming, I haven't seen you show up until this time. I really thought you weren't coming!" He greeted Mei Mei warmly and wanted to shake hands with her, but Mei Mei calmly avoided her.
When it comes to enthusiasm from people of the opposite sex whom she is not familiar with, Mei Mei will subconsciously avoid it.
The hand she avoided pretended to use her phone to check the time, and then said with a smile: "I'm not too late, it's only after nine o'clock."
While the two were laughing and talking, Shi Juan frowned and turned away.
Mayor Gao followed Shi Juan's footsteps, and the two entered the office.
Shi Juan looked at the two people who were still chatting outside the door, and suddenly said coldly: "How old is Xiao Dai this year?"
Mayor Gao was a little surprised by this sudden question, but he still replied: "25 years old, just two years after graduating from college, it is the age when you are full of passion and ambition."
When Shi Juan heard what he said, his expression was a little playful, and he asked again: "Does he have a girlfriend?"
Mayor Gao didn't understand why he was suddenly interested in Dai Siming, but when he saw Shi Juan's eyes lingering on the two people chatting outside, he seemed to understand.
"I haven't heard of him having a girlfriend. I usually see him being busy with work."
Shi Juan glanced at Mayor Gao thoughtfully and said coldly: "At this age, you should really focus on your career. Thinking about unnecessary things is a waste of time."
These words were so pointed that Mayor Gao, a straight-minded person, also noticed the subtlety in it.
Mayor Gao did not answer the call, but walked to the door and said, "Xiao Dai, come in, let's go over today's process arrangements."
Dai Siming then entered the office.
Meili did not follow her in, but stood at the door, pretending to look at the environment around the farm office area. In fact, she did not want to come in and face Shi Juan. Teacher Shi's face turned pale when he saw her, so she had better not ask for trouble.
.
But unexpectedly, this time Shi Juan took the initiative to walk next to her.
Meili glanced at him and instinctively stepped aside.
This time it was Shi Juan who took the initiative to speak.
What he said didn't sound right: "Mr. Ming has been staying in Yicai Town for more than a year. In addition to being busy with projects, he seems to get along very well with the project leader."
If a passerby heard this, he would be able to detect the smell of jealousy in it.
But Mingliang was not a stranger. From her perspective, she could only hear the sarcasm.
"Xiao Dai is a nice person, just like my younger brother." She could only say this.
But such words did not sit well with Shi Juan.
"He's a nice person, but he has a lot of ideas." After he said this, he turned around and went back to the office without giving Meili a chance to respond.
Meimei was a little confused in her heart. She could feel that he meant something, but she felt that she couldn't figure it out. Moreover, she didn't want to sort out things that were unrelated to people and people, and she really didn't want to waste energy.
Of course, she didn't have time to care about this, because the opening ceremony began soon.
The scene is complicated and lively, so let’s get down to business first.
After the opening ceremony, there was a dinner party at the farm. It was a typical rural banquet. A chef who specialized in cooking banquets was hired to set up a battle in the yard and cook a big pot of food. The people who came today, except Dai Siming,
Workers from my own farm, as well as many farmers from nearby tea gardens. Many tea farmers in the town are originally a group of people doing business together. Naturally, they all come to congratulate them on any happy event.
This was the first time for Meimei to see such a banquet in a rural area. While the master was cooking, she curiously stood aside to watch. After looking at the sanitary conditions, she thought it would be a lie to say that she didn't play drums. But the lively atmosphere was very exciting.
She was infected and found it very interesting.
During this period, she met Shi Juan several times in the yard. He was more useful than her because he was helping to move the table and lay out the dishes, while Mingliang was expelled from the helping team after smashing a stack of bowls.
It has to be said that a star is a star after all. The Shi Juan in front of him, even though he was only wearing the most low-key down jacket and jeans, with no face, still could not stop his ability to stand out. When he stood in the crowd, he stood out from the crowd.
Several girls who came to help gathered together from time to time to whisper and then secretly look at him.
Meili felt that the scene was a bit annoying. Thinking that he was here to film, he somehow still had time to attend today's event. Wouldn't it be better to just immerse yourself in filming? He would definitely be surrounded by people when he came to a place like this. He felt that he was not charming enough.
Show, it just appeared on purpose, right?
That's all, it's none of her business, out of sight is out of mind.
Meili left the courtyard, turned around and entered the office, took out her mobile phone and started surfing the Internet.
After a while, Dai Siming came in with a steaming cup of tea in his hand, specially brewed for Meili.
"This tea is the spring tea left over from this year. There is still some left, so I can brew it for you to try."
Meili thanked him, and seeing that he was standing still with no intention of going out, she asked, "Are you okay?"
Dai Siming hesitated for a moment, then plucked up the courage and asked, "Mr. Ming, do you have a boyfriend?"
At this moment, Mingmei finally understood why she always felt something was weird before. Women's sixth sense is indeed not a random thing.
She smiled and said, "I don't have a boyfriend, but I am married."
I thought I could bluff him like this, but Dai Siming said: "Mr. Ming, there is an ambiguity in what you said. You have been married, but you are not married. I have seen the news about you and Mr. Shi, and that is all in the past.
.”
Meimei raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him like he was dumbfounded. It turned out that he was not easy to fool.
"so what?"
A voice came from outside the door.
Meili was stunned.
While they were talking, Shi Juan stepped into the house and spoke to Dai Siming, but his eyes stopped on Mei Liang.
His appearance did make Dai Siming stunned for a moment, but this scene was nothing to Dai Siming. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness. In terms of status, there was no difference between Shi Juan and him at this time.
"So what I want to ask Mr. Ming is, do I have a chance?"
His words made Shi Juan sneer. Young people are indeed different, they are really bold and fearless.
"You didn't." This was what Shi Juan said.
Dai Siming's face turned ugly and he retorted: "As an ex-husband, I'm afraid I don't have the right to speak for my ex-wife."
This is very well said.
Shi Juan looked at Meiliang who looked embarrassed, and asked her: "Then do you think he has a chance?"
Mei Liang secretly despised it in her heart. He wanted to challenge others, but now he pulled her out to be used as cannon fodder. It was really enough.
Dislike it as it is, the matter at hand still needs to be resolved.
Meili smiled reluctantly at Dai Siming and said, "I have been divorced once and have no thoughts about relationships in a short period of time. But thank you for your kindness."
Dai Siming was a little unwilling. Her ex-husband was standing here like a door god. He clearly had no position and was still protecting things that didn't belong to him. No wonder Mingliang couldn't express his stance.
Just when the atmosphere was tense, Mayor Gao appeared. He stood in the yard and called Dai Siming: "Xiao Dai, come here, I have something to tell you!"
Dai Siming was called away, leaving only Shi Juan and Mingliang in the office, and the atmosphere suddenly escalated to an even more embarrassing situation.
Of course, this kind of embarrassment can only be experienced by Mingliang, because although Shi Juan was an intruder, he seemed very confident and did not mean to feel sorry at all.
Before he turned and left, he even said to Meimei: "I didn't expect that Mr. Ming's business is still so good. Everyone loves him wherever he goes."
Always getting ridiculed by him in a weird way, Mingliang couldn't get enough of it, so she retorted: "That can't compare to Mr. Shi's popularity. Just wherever you stop, a bunch of little girls will chase you."
After saying this, in order to show her momentum, Meili stood up from the chair and walked out the door first. Because Shi Juan was blocking the door, she said rudely: "I borrowed it!"
Then he bumped his shoulder and went to the yard angrily.
Chapter completed!
