Chapter 150
He Junting's voice resounded at an inopportune moment, startling Ye Jinmeng who was busily eating. She suddenly felt the food in her bowl was no longer appealing...
Retake exam, if he hadn't reminded her, she would have truly forgotten about it!
With the food still in her mouth, she sat there stunned, looking pitiful.
Seeing this, Xu Wanwan immediately slapped He Junting on the shoulder, "He Junting! Why are you teasing Meng Meng for no reason!"
After glaring at him, He Junting held his shoulder without saying a word.
Shi Shuning quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, the school leaders know your situation and have rescheduled the retake exam to next Saturday and Sunday. You still have a week, don't be nervous."
Upon hearing this, Ye Jinmeng's face lit up with joy, "Really? You're not lying to me?"
Xu Wanwan said, "Of course not, Ting was just teasing you earlier, don't mind him!"
Ye Jinmeng suddenly found the beef in her bowl incredibly fragrant again. Although she had good grades, she was truly afraid of exams, especially when the teacher would patrol the classroom and stand next to her, watching her write. That would make her so nervous that her hands would tremble, and she would even want to go to the restroom...
He Junting touched his nose, "Sorry, Meng Meng..."
The next day, Ye Jinmeng was awakened by her phone's ringtone.
Half-asleep, she fumbled for her phone and answered without looking, her voice soft and sweet, "Hello, who is it~"
The other side seemed to pause for a moment, "Meng Meng Jie, it's me. Did I wake you up?"
Xiao Yuanning's somewhat regretful voice reached Ye Jinmeng's ears. She immediately sat up, "No, I just woke up. Little brother, what's the matter?"
Hearing that she didn't sound angry, Xiao Yuanning let out a sigh of relief, sounding a bit aggrieved, "Meng Meng Jie, why didn't you tell me when you were discharged from the hospital? When I went there, I found out you had already been discharged yesterday. Are you feeling better?"
Xiao Yuanning's milky voice melted Ye Jinmeng's heart. She hurriedly explained, "Sorry, little brother. When I woke up yesterday, I didn't think that far ahead..."
"Alright, I won't blame you. Are you at the Ye family villa now? Can I come to see you?"
Ye Jinmeng's eyes lit up, "You really want to come? When? What do you like to eat? Any dietary restrictions? I'll ask Auntie Chen to make you something delicious!"
Hearing Ye Jinmeng's excited voice, Xiao Yuanning felt elated, "Then I'll go over in a bit. You don't need to make anything fancy. I don't have any restrictions. Home-cooked meals are fine. As long as I can see Meng Meng Jie, I'll be happy!"
Ye Jinmeng's heart blossomed with joy, "Okay, be careful on your way."
After hanging up, Ye Jinmeng rolled around on the bed a few times, squealing in delight. Ah, her idol was coming to her home! No, she had to ask Auntie Chen to make some delicious dishes.
With that thought, she hurried downstairs, shouting excitedly, "Auntie Chen, Auntie Chen, please make some extra delicious food for lunch. My idol is coming over!"
Auntie Chen was peeling onions. Hearing the commotion, she came out of the kitchen and smiled, "Slow down, slow down, don't fall."
Shi Shuning and He Junting didn't return home last night. They were currently sitting on the sofa in the living room. Shi Shuning was busy with something on his laptop. Upon hearing Ye Jinmeng's words, a vein bulged on his forehead. That little brat dared to come!
Now Shi Shuning was grateful that he didn't leave. Otherwise, who knows if that little fatty Meng wouldn't have been taken away by the little brat!
Xu Wanwan covered her mouth, suppressing a laugh as she watched Shi Shuning's expression.
When Meng Meng was still unconscious, Xiao Yuanning would visit the hospital three times a day. Whenever he encountered Shi Shuning, the tension between them was so thick you could cut it with a knife!
Xiao Yuanning even boasted that he would take Meng Meng back home to care for her. Shi Shuning almost went berserk right then and there.
It seemed they wouldn't be able to enjoy their lunch peacefully today. However, this was Meng Meng's personal matter, so she should resolve it herself.
In less than half an hour, Xiao Yuanning arrived. Ye Jinmeng, who had been waiting, ran to the door and saw Xiao Yuanning getting out of the backseat of a Rolls-Royce.
Xiao Yuanning immediately noticed Ye Jinmeng and Shi Shuning standing behind her. Ignoring Shi Shuning's piercing gaze, he stepped forward, intending to give Ye Jinmeng a big hug, but was blocked by Shi Shuning.
"Men and women shouldn't have physical contact. My wife can't let other men hug her!"
Ye Jinmeng's face flushed as she lightly bumped into Shi Shuning's side, then smiled at Xiao Yuanning, "Little brother, you're here. Come in and have a seat!"
Xiao Yuanning let out a cold snort at Shi Shuning, taking the gifts he had brought for Ye Jinmeng from the driver, and followed her inside.
"Meng Meng Jie, these are gifts for you. Do you like them?"
Ye Jinmeng happily accepted them and saw an album right away.
"This is my debut album that's about to be released. Meng Meng Jie, you're the first person to get this album!"
Ye Jinmeng's eyes widened as she held the album, not wanting to let go. Her little brother was also going to pursue a career in music!
"Thank you, little brother. I love it!"
"The rest is homemade sweets from my mom. My mom loves experimenting with food, and she made these last night with her latest recipe. They're delicious, and my mom thought you might enjoy them, so she asked me to bring some for Meng Meng Jie to try."
Ye Jinmeng's eyes lit up. Auntie Song's homemade treats, not available anywhere else - she loved them!
"Can I eat them now?"
Xiao Yuanning smiled, "Whatever I give to Meng Meng Jie belongs to her. You can eat them however you want!"
Ye Jinmeng opened the box, and a sweet lemon fragrance wafted into her nose. She couldn't help but exclaim, "It smells so good, I want to eat it right away!"
The little cakes were tiny, each decorated with an adorable little rabbit. Ye Jinmeng picked one up and popped it into her mouth. It melted instantly, sweet and soft, but not overly rich, completely tantalizing her taste buds.
"Wow, so delicious! Shuning Ge, Wanwan, Ting Ge, you all should try some too!"
She handed one to each of them, not forgetting her little brother.
While eating the delectable little cakes, Shi Shuning felt disgruntled towards the little brat Xiao Yuanning, but he had to admit that Auntie Song's culinary skills were truly impressive.
Xiao Yuanning looked at Ye Jinmeng indulgently and tempted her, "Sister, do you like it? My mom said if you like it, you can come to our house often as a guest. She'll make lots of delicious food that you can't find outside, all her own recipes~"
Ye Jinmeng was super excited, "Yes, as long as Uncle and Auntie don't mind that I eat a lot."
"Don't worry, my parents love kids who eat a lot, it gives them a sense of accomplishment!"
Shi Shuning on the side: Oh no, this little chubby cutie Ye Jinmeng is so easily going to be lured to someone else's house...
No, I have to quickly call my parents and get them to learn how to cook. No, the old saying goes, to win someone over, win over their stomach. This tactic will work best on little chubby Ye Jinmeng. I'll learn instead. Whenever she wants to eat something, I'll be able to make it for her. Yes, that's it!
