486: Chapter 486: Expulsion from School, 3 Good Students (Part 1) 486: Chapter 486: Expulsion from School, 3 Good Students (Part 1) In the morning, Meng Xue’er and Ning Qi rented an apartment that originally belonged to Lin Fei.

“Lin, what is up with your company?!” “It’s Saturday and you still call people in for a meeting.

Can’t you let people rest properly?!”

Ning Qi, with attractive looks and a graceful figure, clearly had taken care to dress up.

As soon as Lin Fei pushed the door open, she immediately stood up, positioned herself in front of him with hands on hips, and vehemently complained to Lin Fei.

Before Lin Fei had a chance to respond to Ning Qi’s complaints, Meng Xue’er, who was originally seated demurely on the sofa, immediately stood up right after Ning Qi finished speaking and defended Lin Fei.

“Ning sister, these things, you can’t blame, can’t blame Brother Lin.

It’s right for Gu Xiaolei and Ye Wenwen to rush to the company for a meeting if there’s an emergency.”

“Right, my foot!

Even if we have to work overtime, they should have given us some notice, shouldn’t they?

Who calls for an overtime meeting on a Saturday with no prior warning?!”

“But, but—”

“But what?

You are so stubbornly naive, always thinking of others first.

You’re the kind of person who’d help count the money after being sold.”

Ning Qi lectured Meng Xue’er with some exasperation, then turned her sharp gaze back to Lin Fei, intending to give him a piece of her mind.

However, Lin Fei simply ignored her and walked past, blatantly disregarding her.

In fact, Lin Fei knew that Gu Xiaolei and Ye Wenwen were suddenly called to a company meeting, most likely because of him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t tolerate Ning Qi, who was freeloading in the apartment, disrespecting him as the sub-landlord.

Of course, the main reason was Meng Xue’er—the pure and innocent girl who was present.

Without her as a witness, Lin Fei’s hand would probably have ended up pressing Ning Qi onto the sofa at the first word of complaint.

Dare to disrespect the sub-landlord?

Cut them down to size first!

“Lin, Brother Lin, Xiaolei and Wenwen asked me to apologize to you on their behalf.

They also said that if you can’t wait for their meeting to end, we should go eat first and not wait for them.”

Unlike Ning Qi’s complaints, the pure and innocent Meng Xue’er approached Lin Fei as soon as he sat down on the sofa, promptly passing on the apologies of Gu Xiaolei and Ye Wenwen.

“It’s okay, I don’t have much going on today and it’s still early.

Let’s wait for them.

After all, it’s Saturday, and I don’t think their meeting will go on for too long.”

Actually, Gu Xiaolei and Ye Wenwen had already called Lin Fei earlier.

When he received their call, Lin Fei had responded to the two women in the same way.

Lin Fei knew why the two were called to a company meeting.

He was also aware that Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife, probably wouldn’t delay her employees’ rest time too much on a Saturday.

At most, she was just trying to indirectly annoy him.

Of course, clear as it may be, such private matters like a spousal spat were naturally not worth sharing with Meng Xue’er and Ning Qi.

…

Bang!

While Lin Fei and the pure and innocent Meng Xue’er were exchanging pleasantries, Ning Qi, coerced by Lin Fei’s demand for rent, brought him a glass of water.

Seeing Lin Fei and Meng Xue’er chatting amicably, she slammed the glass down in front of Lin Fei with indignation.

“Lin, you’re not a man!”

“I’m not a man?

You should be very clear about that.”

“I—”

Feeling Lin Fei’s gaze, filled with a special, teasing meaning, Ning Qi almost lost her breath and nearly passed out from anger because of him.

After all, having rolled between the sheets with Lin Fei more than once, how could Ning Qi fail to hear the implication behind his words?

Her cheeks flushed, Ning Qi wanted to give Lin Fei a piece of her mind.

However, with Meng Xue’er, a girl whose innocence permeated to her very bones present, Ning Qi didn’t want Meng Xue’er to see there was something intimate between her and Lin Fei, so she had to suppress her feelings of embarrassment and rage for the time being.

Glaring at Lin Fei resentfully, Ning Qi took a deep breath and spoke to Lin Fei with a somewhat serious tone, “Lin, I don’t want to argue with you today; I have something important to tell you.

Xue’er and the two girls got—”

“Ning sister, no, you can’t say it.

You, you promised me before.

I, I forbid you to say it!”

Before Ning Qi could finish her sentence, Meng Xue’er, who usually sat by Lin Fei’s side, appearing as demure and well-mannered as a typical small-town, jadelike girl, hurriedly stood up to approach Ning Qi and interrupted her with a hint of anxiety in her voice.

“You silly girl, it’s come to this point, there’s nothing—”

“I forbid you to say it!”

Seeing Ning Qi try to speak again, Meng Xue’er, who was usually quiet and well-mannered, suddenly covered Ning Qi’s elegantly colored lips with her small hand, showing unexpected courage.

“Ning, Ning sister, please, please promise me, okay?

I, I beg you to promise me, won’t, won’t you stop talking, okay?”

Although Meng Xue’er, covering Ning Qi’s beautiful lips, seemed to be taking the initiative, her naturally reserved and delicate disposition meant she was probably oblivious to this.

Instead, she pleaded with Ning Qi in a sorrowful, soft voice.

“What’s going on, is that Zhou Haimeng bullying you at school again?!”

Lin Fei, who knew Meng Xue’er’s pure and straightforward character well, saw her warning and silencing Ning Qi.

Associating it with Ning Qi’s previous words, he could easily guess that the girls had encountered some trouble at school again.

“No, nothing of that sort, big brother Lin.

You, you shouldn’t listen to the nonsense Ning sister is saying.

We, we haven’t been back to school recently.

Anyway, anyway, just, just don’t ask, big brother Lin.

We, we are all doing fine.”

Hearing Lin Fei speak, Meng Xue’er, who had been covering Ning Qi’s beautiful lips, immediately explained to Lin Fei in a somewhat panicked voice.

However, with Meng Xue’er’s inherently honest nature, this explanation might as well have been no explanation at all.

Her naturally fair and delicate face turned beet red as if it was about to spell out ‘I’m lying.’

“Lin, listen well.

That Zhou Haimeng, relying on her family’s background, got the school to expel Xue’er and the other two.

If you’re still a man, then take me to confront that wretched girl right now and stand up for the three of them.

If you don’t have the courage, you’d better stay away from Xue’er and the other two from now on!”

Taking advantage of Meng Xue’er being distracted by Lin Fei’s response, Ning Qi quickly broke free from Meng Xue’er’s grasp and didn’t wait for Lin Fei to speak; she revealed everything that happened to Meng Xue’er and the others in just a few words…
