Chapter 157 Falling Stars
Chapter 157 Falling Stars
Leng Xuan took Peng Ranran back to the car and prepared to take her to a nearby private restaurant where the food was delicious.
After getting in the car, Peng Ranran became a little reserved, but couldn't help but look around.
Wow! She didn't feel it when she was in the square just now, but now seeing the luxurious and convenient decorations in the car, she suddenly felt that her neighbor was a billionaire.
Yes, this matter had spread throughout their community a long time ago. After all, although Sister Leng Xuan had not lived there for a long time, her love of watching plays made her familiar to many grandparents and aunts.
Earlier, someone wanted to introduce a partner to Sister Leng Xuan through her grandmother.
As a result, before those people could take action, Sister Leng Xuan moved away. Then after the hot search went viral not long ago, everyone realized that Sister Leng Xuan, who used to live in their community, was actually a billionaire?
Many aunts and uncles were filled with regret about this and even went to her grandmother to ask for Sister Leng Xuan's contact information.
In the end, her grandmother blew them all away with a broom.
What kind of people are they!
Her grandmother also told her not to disturb Sister Leng Xuan, after all, they were no longer from the same world.
"Wipe the sweat." Leng Xuan took a towel and handed it to Peng Ranran.
Peng Ranran came back to her senses immediately and thanked loudly: "Thank you, Sister Leng Xuan. Sister Leng Xuan, you look so elegant and beautiful now. I almost didn't recognize you just now."
Leng Xuan: "...It's different when you go to college. You speak better."
"Hehe, Sister Leng Xuan, I have grown up. Don't you know that the rainbow fairies in our school speak more beautifully? Their words are even more exaggerated than the rainbow articles I wrote for Meiyi."
Peng Ranran smiled and when she was wiping the sweat off her face, she found that the towel was a little cold and all the heat in her body disappeared immediately.
Just mentioning Meiyi reminded her of what happened just now, and the smile on her face faded: "Sister Lengxuan, just now I really... But Meiyi can't be a liar. If she was a liar, she wouldn't have been in such a miserable situation. If it weren't for the help of my great aunt, she doesn't know how long she would have been punished to stand at night!"
"Your opinion is your subjective opinion, and other people's opinions may also be their subjective opinions, so there is no need for us to worry too much about what others say." Leng Xuan commented objectively.
Peng Ranran naturally understood, but...
There was a look of frustration on his face, which was not good at hiding his thoughts.
"Okay, don't think about it, we'll talk after dinner."
As soon as Leng Xuan finished speaking, she heard a scream coming from outside the car. She turned around and saw a figure falling down on the side of the road with a thud.
Peng Ranran also saw it, and immediately recognized that the person who fainted was none other than the young lady who she had made cry not long ago.
"It's Wen Yi, the girl just now. She almost fainted from low blood sugar in the square earlier. This time she must have been mad at me. Sister Leng Xuan, can you stop the car so I can get off to check on her? I'm skipping lunch."
Compared to having lunch with Leng Xuan, Peng Ranran felt that the young lady was more important because she was surrounded by guilt at the moment.
What else could Leng Xuan say? Of course, she should satisfy her guilt.
But in the end we still had dinner together. We didn't go to any private restaurant, but just ate at a roadside noodle shop. We also ate with Wen Yi, who seemed to have not eaten or drunk anything all day and fainted from exhaustion due to running too fast.
This diagnosis came from an old Chinese doctor next to the noodle shop.
Peng Ranran was shocked after hearing this: "Sister Wen Yi, why don't you eat for a day?"
Man is like iron and rice is like steel. If he doesn't eat for a meal, he will feel hungry. Anyway, Peng Ranran couldn't imagine what it would be like if he didn't eat for a day.
Probably...
Leng Xuan lowered her eyes slightly at the look of disbelief on her face. Peng Ranran was murdered and her family protected her too well. They probably didn't know that people can really lose their appetite when encountering certain things.
This is a girl with a story.
Leng Xuan looked at the girl's pale face and felt a headache when she thought about her recent achievement.
"Congratulations to the host for achieving the hidden achievement: Falling Star. The host is rewarded with 12 family asset fragments."
Just looking at the reward, you can tell that it’s not a simple matter. But thinking about the information about this achievement provided by the system, Leng Xuan couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
"...I can't eat." Wen Yi had a cold expression and dull eyes. Even though Peng Ranran helped her again, she didn't want to communicate with her too much.
"Miss Wen Yi, I'm sorry. I was wrong in the square before. I shouldn't have held you in that way and caused you to faint. So, I will apologize to you with soup and wine. Please forgive my recklessness and impulsiveness."
Peng Ranran raised a bowl of seaweed egg drop soup and apologized to Wen Yi. If her expression hadn't been so sincere, Leng Xuan would have almost been unable to hold back her laughter.
"It has nothing to do with you. It's my own fault. You helped me before, so we're even now." Wen Yi said but didn't take the bowl of egg drop soup.
In this world, who would apologize with egg drop soup?
"Miss Wen Yi, the old doctor just told me that your stomach is too weak and you can't eat anything greasy. This bowl of egg drop soup is just the right amount of light. Try a sip first to fill your stomach. It tastes good, and the saltiness is just right."
Peng Ranran looked at Wen Yi eagerly, almost feeding her the soup. Seeing that the stubborn scene was about to happen again, Leng Xuan couldn't help but coughed lightly: "Don't give others what you have drunk, she has some too."
Peng Ranran: “…” Sister Leng Xuan, why are you trying to ruin my show?
Unexpectedly, the next second, Wen Yi glanced at Leng Xuan and picked up the soup in front of him and started drinking it in small sips.
Peng Ranran's eyes widened immediately. What was going on? How did she suddenly figure it out?
Leng Xuan guessed what was going on, and just looked at Wen Yi and asked, "Why do you say Yayi is a liar?"
"Yes, yes, Miss Wen Yi, why do you say Mei is a liar? I think..."
"Because the song "Glimmer" was not written by her at all. She is a thief who stole other people's work." Wen Yi said angrily, interrupting what Peng Ranran was about to say.
The next second, Peng Ranran immediately refuted as if she was scalded: "Impossible! How could Meiyi be a thief? Don't say anything without evidence. This song is of course not written by Meiyi. She is not an original singer, but this song was arranged by a popular composer found by her company. Are the lyrics written by a gold medal lyricist good?"
Wen Yi was stunned for a moment, then excitedly said: "Haha, a popular composer, a gold medal lyricist? Are you sure they wrote it and didn't plagiarize someone else's work? They are from the same company. As a singer, I don't believe she didn't know the situation, but she still sang it. If she's not a liar, then she's an accomplice."
Peng Ranran: "Humph! You are just making a subjective assumption. Don't say you have no evidence to prove why a famous lyricist and composer would plagiarize. Even if that were the case, why would Mei know that she trusted the company to sing the song she was given? How can you say she knows the inside story?"
Wen Yi fell silent and his face turned even paler.
