My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!

Chapter 524: Chapter 343 What Baggage?

Seeing Meng Lang’s ghost-seeing expression, Master Duan flashed a mysteriously sweet smile.

"Is it that hard to guess? Judging from your performance just now, you and Lawyer Lin clearly made some progress.

But considering your personality, the fact that you haven’t made any official announcement on your social circle by now already explains a lot.

Relationship’s not confirmed yet, right?"

"Uh..." Meng Lang suddenly felt a bit awkward, having been preempted by the other...

"As for your landlord..."

Duan Xian stroked his chin, glancing at Meng Lang.

"That time at the recording, I noticed her expression and attitude towards you was a bit off. At the time, I thought I was overthinking it.

But today, after touring your place, I knew there must be something fishy between you two!"

"This... How did you figure that out?"

"Let me ask you, how much is your rent per month?"

"Three thousand."

"Thre..." Duan Xian choked for a moment.

"For this location and decor, see if anyone would rent it to you for 6000!"

"You’re talking about that, huh? I helped someone out before, and they cut the rent in half for me..."

"Haha! Alright, let’s not talk about that. Look at this sofa, hmm! Brand new... recognize the brand?"

"What brand?"

"Italy’s Karada, this set, at least two hundred thousand!"

"Uh..."

"And this dining table, by Nature, this TV cabinet, by QM... Do you realize, just this set of brand new furniture, if damaged, would take you two to three years of rent to cover?"

"How do you know this so clearly?"

"Did you forget what I did before I switched jobs? The moment I walked in, I realized your rental is fully top-tier..."

"Uh... Okay, but that doesn’t really mean anything, right?

She really isn’t short on money, maybe to her, a few thousand and a few hundred thousand in furniture doesn’t make much of a difference.

She told me the previous tenant had just moved in and had to leave because of an emergency, so she sold it at a discount..."

Meng Lang’s voice lacked confidence.

"Haha! Only a straight guy like you would believe that! If she wasn’t fond of you, why would she go out of her way to take care of you like this?

Well, even if I misunderstood, you were the one who opened the door just now, right? The door security is virtually useless!

Do you realize what it signifies when a single woman is willing to rent out the apartment across her door to a single man and freely offers him access to her place?"

"Uh... What does it signify?"

"It signifies that she’s not guarded against you!

And when a woman lets her guard down around a man, it’s when she subconsciously feels she could accept you..."

Meng Lang: "..."

"With all this evidence, one is a coincidence, two is a coincidence, but three?

Was it hard to guess the complexity between you?"

Meng Lang: "..."

"Mr. Duan, you underestimated your talent..."

If this was on "If You Are the One," probably even my own brother Meng Fei wouldn’t stand a chance...

"Overpraising me, overpraising me. But it’s surprising that even a straight guy like you could figure out these subtleties."

Haha! There’s nothing to boast about, after all, it took decades of combined brotherly effort to slowly figure it out...

"But I must remind you that although this looks like a lucky peach flower spell, given the personalities and relationships among you, if not handled properly... it might just turn into a peach flower calamity!

Especially with someone as psychologically sensitive as Lawyer Lin, if you fail to provide her with a sense of security... there’s a ninety-nine percent chance she’d choose to flee."

Fuck! Now, this is what an expert sounds like!

"So that’s why I came to you for guidance, Mr. Duan, teach me!"

Meng Lang handed over a box of Golden Wu Duck Neck.

Duan Xian received it with a beaming smile.

"Are you choosing Lawyer Lin?"

"Of course, I am quite dedicated, you know!"

"Did you hesitate for a second just now?"

"Did I? Impossible!"

Duan Xian looked at his best friend scrutinizingly, Meng Lang met his gaze with all seriousness...

He laughed and patted his best friend’s shoulder.

"This kind of thing, outsiders can’t help you, the only one who can help you is yourself."

Meng Lang was speechless.

"Can’t you give me some more constructive advice?"

"Well... a constructive piece of advice, that is, love should be approached without any burden."

"What do you mean?"

"No matter who it is, if love is weighed down with too many worries, be it about reality, family, love, friendship... it becomes very difficult for her to smoothly accept a relationship.

Know why many couples in passionate love break up when it comes to marriage?

Because suddenly, those two people, initially in a fiery romance, start to realize that to move forward, not only do they need a dowry, a wedding house, equality in family backgrounds, consent from both parents, they also have to consider how many kids to have..."

Duan Xian pointed at the piles of luggage in the living room.

"Love is reckless, it’s a journey that’s started spontaneously.

You have to let go of everything to be truly traveling; if you carry everything with you, that’s called moving house..."

Meng Lang seemed enlightened.

Uh... Let go of baggage, throw caution to the wind?

Does Lin Haitang have baggage?

Well, loads of it.

Does Yan Weiwei have baggage? Apparently, she does too.

What about himself?

It seems that he should be the one with the least baggage, but his life experiences are too vast...

What’s mine is my brothers’, what’s mine is still mine.

According to such accumulation, my baggage is basically an increasing sequence...
