Chapter 1042 - Getting Bullied? (2/2)

Without even thinking, Tian Xiaomeng shook her head. “I never thought I’m worthy enough to be with him. Tang Xiu is just like the sun, whereas I’m like a star in the sky. How can the speck of starlight match the brilliance of the sun? How can I be worthy of him?”

“Aah…”

Everyone around inhaled a long breath of relief. They previously thought that this girl wasn’t able to measure herself well!

Tian Xiaomeng’s pure and simple bearing was much to Tang Ying’s liking. She paced forward and pulled her hands, saying, “You’re my little brother, Tang Xiu’s friend, Xiaomeng, so you’re Tang Ying’s friend too. Just tell me whoever dares to bully you, Sis Ying will definitely make them pay you back!”

Tian Xiaomeng already knew Tang Ying’s identity now and felt very flattered. She didn’t expect that Tang Ying would act normally, unlike those young ladies, and was approachable instead. After hurriedly nodding, she said, “Thank you, Sis Ying. You’re just like Tang Xiu. Both of you are good persons.”

“Pfft… hehe…”

Tang Ying couldn’t help giggling and then said, “Well, Lil Sis Xiaomeng. Don’t label me as a good person, alright? Anyways, where did Tang Xiu go? Why don’t I see him here with you?”

“He went to see Grandpa, Big Sis.” Tang Wei took the opportunity to interject. “It seems that there’s something they need to discuss.”

After a short while, Tang Xiu led Mu Wanying into the pavilion. After seeing Tian Xiaomeng with Tang Ying, he smiled and paced forward, saying, “You already got acquainted with Xiaomeng, Sis Ying? This girl is kinda timid, so don’t make fun of her.”

“No worries! How can I scare her? It’s too late since I already protect her now,” Tang Ying smilingly replied. “Anyways, what are you two doing here while holding hands, though? Are you showing off your love or something?”

“Eh… hehe…” Tang Xiu let out a dry laugh in response.

At this time, Tian Xiaomeng’s eyes went saucer, looking at Mu Wanying whose hand was pulled by Tang Xiu’s. At this moment, only then did she realize how stupid she was before. Sparing the talents and abilities of this girl, just her appearance, figure, and bearing was all one in the billions. She had never seen anyone like her in real life, but who else could compare with her?

She was beautiful—too beautiful!

Even if she was a girl herself, she knew that she felt attracted by Mu Wanying. It was a feeling that made her heart thump faster and harder.

Mu Wanying came toward Tian Xiaomeng, stretched out her hand and smilingly said, “Hello, I’m Mu Wanying, Tang Xiu’s girlfriend. You’re Xiaomeng, right? Tang Xiu just told me about your situation. But I’m glad that you came to attend Grandpa’s 80th birthday.”

Instead of answering, Tian Xiaomeng gulped and murmured stutteringly, “You’re… H-hello, I-I’m T-Tian Xiaomeng. I’m… uh, no. I’m glad to be able to… attend Grandpa Tang’s 80th birthday. Mu… ah… Big Sis Wanying, you’re so beautiful, so gorgeous… the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”

Mu Wanying’s eyes curved in happiness. She turned to glance at Tang Xiu and kindly took Tian Xiaomeng’s hand and smilingly said, “I like you too. You’re Tang Xiu’s friend, so you’re my friend as well. I hope you can treat me as a friend too later.”

Tian Xiaomeng’s small head nodded repeatedly like a pecking chicken. She then excitedly replied, “I’ll definitely treat you as a good friend, Big Sis Wanying!”

“Count me in too!” Tang Ying interjected with a smile.

Tang Xiu, who stood at the side, just watched the girls merrily laugh and talk. He immediately smiled and said, “Well, Sis Ying, Wanying, are you two free this afternoon?”

Mu Wanying shook her head, whereas Tang Ying straightly asked, “I have nothing to do. What’s up, you got something for us?”

“Since you’re free, can you accompany Xiaomeng to the TV station?” Tang Xiu asked with a smile. “She kinda has a talk show this afternoon.”

“Uh… no… there’s no need.” Tian Xiaomeng suddenly spoke, “The program manager wasn’t able to contact me yesterday, so when I just called them, they said… he said that he has already put me off the list.”

Tang Ying frowned and resentfully said, “Don’t worry about it, Xiaomeng. The TV station said that you’re off the list, huh? Just wait here, I’ll call them. I’ll make sure to have all the interviewees gone and they will just interview you alone. Gimme their number, quickly.”

Lips twitching, Tian Xiaomeng stutteringly replied, “Uh… S-Sis Ying, t-there’s no need to go that far, r-right? Besides, it doesn’t matter if I don’t partake in it either. I…”

“That’s why your character will make you easily be bullied, Xiaomeng.” Tang Ying cut off. “You told us that you came to the capital from Star City to get interviewed, but they just kicked you out because they couldn’t contact you yesterday. That’s simply bullying to me. Just trust me and give me the number.”

Tian Xiaomeng shot a look at Tang Xiu, looking somewhat embarrassed and awkward.

“Since Sis Ying wants to stand up for you, just give her their phone number,” said Tang Xiu with a smile. “Besides, it’s the program you want to take part in, right? Since you’re invited, don’t let your trip to Beijing be in vain. However, remember to not speak carelessly there, though. Especially what happened in the last two days.”
