Chapter 10 A Life of Silent Drifting, Never Meeting a Wise Ruler

"Look at you, so pathetic! So what if Liu Ruyan is a little prettier, has a better figure, is a little taller, and a little more seductive? Why are you blushing like a cooked crab? Pah! I despise you!"

In the afternoon, back at her workstation, Yuan Meng launched into a tirade against Lin Mo. Perhaps it was because Lin Mo had never looked at her with the same disdainful gaze one would give a woman, which broke the ice for the seemingly indifferent person.

"Well, you can't blame me for that. I'm not a womanizer, but the flowers are in full bloom, and if I don't appreciate them, I'd seem a bit unromantic," Lin Mo said helplessly, spreading his hands.

There was no way around it; he was just an innocent young man who had just left the beginner village. It would be strange if he didn't react at all when he encountered such a top-tier succubus.

"You! Still! Say! You! Aren't! A! Lustful!" Yuan Meng said, enunciating each word clearly, punching him with each syllable, obviously furious.

"You're not only lustful, you're also greedy. I think you just don't want to work hard anymore. Have you forgotten that she's Liu Ruyan? She's had more abortions than you've eaten claypot rice, and you're still blushing!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo immediately became anxious:
"You're talking nonsense!"

"I fucking..."

Seeing that Yuan Meng was about to explode again, Lin Mo quickly waved his hand: "No, listen to me, I think I saw her last night!"

"Oh? Tell me!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Meng immediately put down her phone, appearing very interested.

She had already sensed something when Liu Ruyan called from the ice cream shop downstairs.

Lin Mo didn't hide anything from her and recounted how he had dinner with his cousin the night before, got drunk, and his cousin took him home. He also mentioned that someone had apparently come and put their arm around him in the back seat.

"You mean, you drank too much last night and Liu Ruyan hugged you the whole way in the back seat of the car? You? Oh my god, you don't even deserve it!" Yuan Meng's first reaction was absolutely awful.

Lin Mo:
"Actually, I'm not entirely sure either. I was drinking yesterday and couldn't even keep my eyes open in the car, but just now downstairs, the voice on her phone was definitely my cousin's. I'm sure of that!"

"But Sister Yuan, what's your relationship with our General Manager Liu? You seem quite familiar with her, but it feels like you have some issues with her?"

Lin Mo gossiped in the opposite direction. As for inheriting the family business, isn't that obvious? Putting aside everything else, can an average family afford a Xiaomi SU7 Ultra?

Moreover, Yuan Meng's attire, from head to toe, clearly indicated that she did not come from an ordinary family, and he was simply curious about the relationship between the two.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Meng took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and considered for a while before speaking: "Do you understand what it means to be someone else's child?"

"Got it!" Lin Mo gave an OK sign.

He understands this perfectly. Many people have a similar comparison in their childhood, someone who is better than you in every way, and you are powerless to catch up.

But Yuan Meng's next sentence completely stunned him.

"Not only that, she also hooked up with my brother and turned him into a simp!"

Lin Mo: "Huh?"

"Is it really Ruyan herself?"

"No, that's not it, it's just that my brother is a complete sucker!"

Lin Mo:
Isn't this the end of it? Being used as a comparison point is already unpleasant, and now the older brother who used to be nice to her has become the other person's simp, and even speaks up for the other person. The buffs are stacked to the max!
"I see, thank you for your hard work, Sister Yuan!"

"Good to know. As my loyal henchman, you know who you should stand with now!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo clasped his hands in a fist and said, "I have wandered for half my life, never encountering a wise ruler. If you do not abandon me, I am willing."

"Get lost! I treated you like a brother, and you actually tried to stab me?"

Lin Mo:
"Sister Yuan, we're beautiful, so be more ladylike! How are you going to find a boyfriend if we don't?"

"I'm going to be childless and never date!" Yuan Meng said dismissively, her tone resolute. Lin Mo was taken aback: "Huh? Why? Do you like women?"

"There's no why, I can't help it if I don't want to be fucked!"

Lin Mo: (；￣Д￣)
"No, although the words may be rough but the reasoning is sound, this is just too rough!"

"Mind your own business! Remember this: from now on, stand with me and never let Liu Ruyan get away with this! Do you hear me?!" Yuan Meng threatened, raising her fist.

Lin Mo nodded. He was not an ungrateful person and had not forgotten who stood up for him this morning. Yuan Meng was a man of loyalty and righteousness, and was definitely his good older brother, unlike Zhang Wei, that traitor!
Time flies, and soon it was time to leave work.

In the parking lot downstairs at the company, Zhang Wei stopped Lin and Yuan, who were about to go to the internet cafe, and said:

"Good lad, you and President Liu have been keeping things under wraps for a while now. I even saw you two holding hands!"

"But that shouldn't be! My nickname is Triple Andy Lau, the epitome of manhood. How come I never encounter such good fortune?"

Upon seeing Zhang Wei, Lin Mo immediately flew into a rage: "You traitor, how dare you come back?"

"Hey, don't put it so harshly. At worst, you'll be Ji Bochang from now on," Zhang Wei grinned, showing no shame in running away.

"You...you!" Lin Mo pointed at Zhang Wei, trembling with rage. He had never seen such a shameless person.

To be honest, Zhang Wei is a person who is quite representative of the current situation of young people.

If you say they're poor, they've gotten so fat; if you say they're rich, they're always running out of money and feeling melancholy; if you say they're lazy, they can be busy from morning till night; if you say they're stupid, they can still surf the internet with a smartphone.

Simply put, it's about staying alive, which is quite abstract!
Taking a few deep breaths, Lin Mo calmed himself down, telling himself he couldn't compete with such a naturally gifted player in abstract art, and then began to speak:

"Fine, let's leave it at that!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei was overjoyed, patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "Hey, I knew you'd forgive me, my good brother!"

Lin Mo slapped his hand away and said calmly, "You're overthinking it. It's just that my mom said it's like playing with idiots' fortune!"

Zhang Wei: ? ? ?
Yuan Meng: o(*≧▽≦)ツ┏━┓
No wonder the three of them became friends; they must be birds of a feather.

Just then, a pure black Mercedes pulled up beside the three of them and rolled down its window.

"Aren't you really going to have dinner with me tonight?" Liu Ruyan asked Yuan Meng with a smile.

Sitting in the car, Liu Ruyan held the steering wheel with one hand and her sunglasses with the other. The seatbelt on her chest showed off her figure perfectly.

Zhang Wei and Lin Mo were both stunned.

"No, I'm not interested!" Yuan Meng said calmly.

Liu Ruyan chuckled lightly, then looked at Lin Mo and asked, "And you, Ito Makoto, would you like to get in the car?"

"Uh, no, no need!" Lin Mo quickly said, feeling Yuan Meng's gaze.

Liu Ruyan shook her head at this, then stepped on the gas and disappeared from the spot.

"Do you think the seatbelt looks good?" Yuan Meng said through gritted teeth to the two of them as soon as Liu Ruyan left.

Lin Mo: "What seatbelt? That's clearly a monitor!"

Yuan Meng: (艹皿艹)
Zhang Wei: "What device? You two, explain this to me! I'm so anxious! I was only looking at the car, it's so cool!"

Two people:.
