Chapter 201: 201 Wanting to Buy Osmanthus Flowers Along With Wine
"You mean when I met him, right?"
Shi Qianxi recounted, "The day before yesterday."
Indeed, the lawless and willful missy had no intention of hiding anything from her mother.
"The day before yesterday?"
Meng Meiling’s tone involuntarily rose, and she almost lost control of her emotions.
Involuntarily.
A term popped into her head,
One-night stand.
Her precious daughter may have been mischievous in the past, but she had never been this reckless. She had just gone out to ease her mind for two years, so how did things turn into what they were today?
"How did your father teach you!"
When the child errs, the man pays the price.
Almost instinctively, Meng Meiling blamed her husband for the mistake.
"My dad? He barely cares about me."
Alas, Miss Shi was indeed a caring little cotton-padded jacket, who, far from helping, poured fuel on the fire.
"Your dad doesn’t care about you, so you think you can mess around? You’re a young lady, you’re being irresponsible to yourself!"
Meng Meiling admonished.
Although she had been to many places over the past two years and had seen how open other countries could be, this was still within the country.
Boys might be another matter.
But if a girl conducts herself so licentiously in her private life, she’s bound to draw criticism.
Even if the Shi Family had wealth and influence, they couldn’t silence everyone.
"From now on, you must put an end to all your inappropriate relationships. You are now the Sun Family’s future daughter-in-law, and Xi Yu is a good kid. You can’t hurt him like this!"
Meng Meiling declared decisively, still considering herself "enlightened."
"I don’t want to!"
Shi Qianxi immediately resisted, "Mom, making friends is my freedom! You have no right to deprive me of that!"
"Am I stopping you from making friends?"
Meng Meiling said sternly, "I’m telling you to behave yourself from now on, stop messing around. Don’t you know what those men are after? Shi Qianxi, don’t forget, you are the daughter of Shi Zhenhua and Meng Meiling. You represent your parents’ dignity! Besides, dismissing a good man like Xi Yu and running off to mingle with those sleazy men from outside, what were you thinking?"
"He’s not a sleazy man!"
Shi Qianxi retorted immediately.
Even though she kept reminding herself that getting angry would age her quickly, seeing this girl repeatedly talk back still made Meng Meiling frown involuntarily.
Was it because she had been away for two years that her maternal authority had waned?
"Then who is he?"
"Jiang..."
Just as Shi Qianxi was about to blurt out, she suddenly came to her senses.
"I won’t tell you!"
Meng Meiling laughed.
"Fine, Shi Qianxi, you think you’re too grown up to listen to your mother now, huh? Great, from today onwards, you don’t have to use your credit cards anymore."
Shi Qianxi was shocked to hear this.
True to being a mother, she had hit her where it hurts.
Even if the Monkey King had extraordinary abilities, he couldn’t escape Buddha’s grasp.
With her financial lifeline cut off, Miss Shi, despite her rebellious attitude, was probably no longer able to make a move.
Meng Meiling initially thought that the girl would immediately soften up and try to win her over with coquettish charm, but to her surprise, the girl only moved her mouth slightly without making a sound, her face stern as she drove in silence.
She smiled.
Alright then.
It seems that in these past two years, she has made some progress, at least she’s become tougher than before.
That’s more like the daughter of MeiLing Meng.
"Don’t even think about going to your dad. You know, the decisions I make, he can’t change them."
Shi Qianxi became even more expressionless and remained silent.
As a mother, MeiLing Meng also truly played the hardball, looking out the window, she stopped talking.
The Aston Martin re-entered the underground parking lot of the Hilton.
"Take out the stockings and throw them away."
After speaking, MeiLing Meng got out of the car without waiting for her only beloved daughter and headed straight for the elevator.
Shi Qianxi took the stockings from the back seat, held them in her hand, and finally couldn’t help but stomp her foot in frustration.
"I knew I shouldn’t have picked you up! You just bully people as soon as you come back!"
Of course, MeiLing Meng couldn’t hear her daughter’s resentment anymore. She checked into a business suite, sat on the couch, took a deep breath, and then rubbed her brow.
After sitting for a while, she opened her eyes, took out her phone, and made a call.
"MeiLing, have you arrived?"
After about a dozen seconds, the call connected and a deep voice came from the other side.
"What are you doing?"
"I have an important project today. I’m sorry, I can’t pick you up personally, Qian Qian should have gone, right?"
On the other end of the line, the chairman of Jinhai Industry, a business tycoon renowned in East Sea and even across the country, was at a set-up scene.
The site was bustling with people, very lively, with many celebrities’ figures visible.
A huge storyboard displayed the characters for "Prosperous Age."
Even those who don’t pay much attention to the film industry should know that there’s a mainstream movie about to start shooting recently, with a luxurious cast that nearly encompasses half of the entertainment industry, truly a dazzling array of stars.
Many not-so-famous artists sought connections by any means just to land a cameo in it, and yet Pei Yunxi, the leading figure in the entertainment world, stood out from the crowd, defeating numerous Best Actress contenders and secured the lead role in this drama; naturally, she appeared at the start-up scene as well.
The reporters were scrambling for the best shot, with flashbulbs flickering.
"Shi Zhenhua, are you still in charge of your daughter or not?"
MeiLing Meng said coldly, not giving any face to this man of legendary status.
"What happened? Did that girl upset you as soon as you came back?"
Shi Zhenhua, who built a huge business empire nearly from scratch and presides over dozens of listed companies, walked to a quieter spot with a chuckle.
"Don’t worry, I’ll discipline her."
"By the time you get around to disciplining, the daylilies will have cooled."
MeiLing Meng laughed coldly.
"Let’s set a time to meet. There are many things we need to talk about."
"Sure, you set the time."
Shi Zhenhua agreed very readily.
He hung up quickly, as if not willing to waste words.
How could they be a couple?
Shi Zhenhua didn’t mind, put down his phone, and looked toward the actress who was the most sought after by the media, the center of most cameras’ focus, touted by Western media as the Eastern Venus.
At his age, wealth, power, fame... he had already acquired all that should be his, and he could easily buy any luxury item in the world, but there was one thing that was very hard for him to obtain.
And that was "youth."
The desire to buy cassia wine to drink together, in the end, is not as good as the days of one’s youth.
However, at a party, when he had a chance encounter with this famous actress from both inside and outside of China, he felt a long-lost sensation: it was the taste of heartbeats, as if his entire being suddenly became younger.
At his status, he had seen numerous beautiful women, countless of them throwing themselves at him, but none of them elicited the feeling she did.
"Director Shi, the commencement ceremony is about to begin."
An assistant approached, notifying him respectfully.
Shi Zhenhua nodded and withdrew his
