Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Damage to Reputation

Wang Zhipeng looked at Meng Lingmei with a serious expression and said slowly, "This is my home, and I am the chief of internal medicine at First Hospital, surname Wang. I rescued you in a small grove in the suburbs on my way home from visiting a friend the night before last. Your current condition is an injury to the left abdomen, but it’s not life-threatening."

Meng Lingmei was stunned for a long time, trying to digest his words, then asked foolishly, "Why didn’t you take me to the hospital?"

"Considering your condition at that time, going to the hospital would have been damaging to your reputation, so I took it upon myself to bring you back home for treatment. Do you need me to contact your family now?"

When Meng Lingmei heard the words "damaging to your reputation," she glanced at the bruises on her body and suspected she was no longer pure, and tears streamed down her face.

Seeing this, Wang Zhipeng deliberately misunderstood and said, "If you don’t want to contact your family just yet, let’s avoid it to spare them from worrying. It’s only me living here, you can stay put until you are better. You should rest for now, I’ll go buy you something to eat."

After saying this, Wang Zhipeng left somewhat awkwardly.

Meng Lingmei suddenly felt that, although he was not particularly handsome, he was quite to her liking.

...

The afternoon Lin Fangwei was undergoing surgery, Meng Chuyue drove back to Wuliu Town.

Seeing her arrive in a luxury car, Shen Mei was startled and quickly asked, "Where did you get this car?"

Meng Chuyue thought for a moment, "It belongs to the owner of our fruit shop, she asked me to drive and bring a few friends back with me."

"Oh," Shen Mei raised an eyebrow, indicating she understood.

Seeing Shen Mei’s eight-year-old son, Xu Yinuo, looking eagerly at her car, Meng Chuyue smiled and said, "Teacher Shen, do you have any relatives who need a ride? I can take you."

Shen Mei was about to refuse when the bashful Xu Yinuo said, "Mom, didn’t grandma say we should go visit when we have time? Why don’t we go now?"

Shen Mei’s maternal home in Xinghua Village was not very far from Xiaoliu Village, and Xu Yinuo’s request was not unreasonable.

Yet Shen Mei didn’t want to spoil the child and, her face darkening, was about to teach him a lesson in public when Meng Chuyue quickly intervened, "Teacher Shen, do you really have to be so formal with me?"

Shen Mei glared at Xu Yinuo, "I don’t want to spoil this naughty boy."

Meng Chuyue opened the trunk, took out a large box of fruit and a big bag of watermelons, and laughed, "Xiao Nuo isn’t a naughty boy, he’s both good and clever. He wants to take you guys to Xinghua Village because he doesn’t see me as an outsider. If it were someone else, he definitely wouldn’t say this, right Xiao Nuo?"

Xu Yinuo, with wide eyes and a cute expression, said, "Yes, Mom, you just said I should treat Sister Chuyue like a real sister, and now you’re blaming me. You’re not keeping your word!"

Shen Mei, "..."

I want to be angry, but I can’t.

Meng Chuyue pointed at another box of fruit and another bag of watermelons in the trunk and said, "I’ve also brought gifts for our grandma, Teacher Shen, don’t refuse. You know, when I was in junior high, grandma took great care of me."

Meng Chuyue was referring to Shen Mei’s mother, Lee Shulan.

She was a particularly hardworking and kind old lady.

A few years ago, when she was helping Shen Mei take care of Xu Yinuo here, she often cooked porridge and steamed buns for children who couldn’t go home to eat on rainy days.

Meng Chuyue did well in her studies and was good-looking, so Lee Shulan took special care of her, and Meng Chuyue always remembered her kindness.

Shen Mei naturally knew about these things. She intended to refuse at first but, thinking that it might mean more care for Meng Chuyue in the future, which wasn’t appropriate to refuse outright, she nodded, "That would be fine, and I can tell grandma about your perfect test scores too. Oh, since you already call her ’grandma,’ make sure to treat us like family in the future, and never be formal with us."
