Chapter 1256 - Meeting Again After Two Months (1/2)
After buying some clothes, Nan Zhi and Xia Yanran led the two girls to a high-cla.s.s restaurant. Although they had food in jail that night, the food wasn’t good nor was it nutritious. It was only enough to fill their stomachs.
Staring at the delicacies placed on the table, both Cen Xi and Gu Meng felt like a century had pa.s.sed.
Cen Xi was only in jail for a day, but it already felt like a century, not to mention Gu Meng who had been detained for two months.
Gu Meng thought that she would only be released after a few years. When she was first brought in, she cried, sobbed and resisted, but all she got was detention from the jail wardens. During her longest detention period, she hadn’t eaten for three days and three nights.
Later, she learned her lesson and accepted the harsh reality. Brother Ah Dai was no longer her Brother Ah Dai, and he wouldn’t release her from jail.
There was no point in dreaming anymore.
Today made Gu Meng see Nan Zhi as her family. Nan Zhi bought clothes for her and even brought her to eat nice food! Suddenly, all of the unhappiness and grievances Gu Meng had within her flowed out like an uncontrollable dam.
She flopped on the table, sobbing out loud uncontrollably.
Cen Xi wanted to comfort Gu Meng, but Nan Zhi shook her head at her.
Gu Meng had suffered, so she needed to vent her emotions out. It was good to cry it all out. Keeping it within her might only cause problems in the long run.
Since Gu Meng was naturally innocent and emotional, her sadness came quickly and left quickly as well. After she cried for a while, feeling a lot better after she did. Cen Xi took some tissues to wipe her tears for her. “Don’t cry, don’t cry, let’s eat instead.”
Giving a last sniffle, Gu Meng nodded.
When they were eating, Nan Zhi asked Gu Meng some questions about being thrown into jail.
After her wedding with Sihan, they had left for their honeymoon. Once they returned, she had gotten Sihan to ask Ye Qing if he returned to the fis.h.i.+ng village to look for Gu Meng.
By then, Ye Qing couldn’t remember who Gu Meng was already. He said that he had regained his memories and had his beloved in his heart, so he wouldn’t like Gu Meng from the fis.h.i.+ng village anymore.
He didn’t want to give hope to her, so he might as well have her lose any lingering feelings.
When Nan Zhi heard Ye Qing’s words from Sihan, she never thought that Ye Qing’s way of ‘losing hope’ was to throw Gu Meng into jail.
At the thought of how Ye Qing was now, Nan Zhi sighed quietly in her mind, not knowing if it was fortunate or unfortunate for Gu Meng to come look for him.
“Mengmeng, you’ve lost quite a bit of weight. Eat more,” Nan Zhi said gently.
Gu Meng nodded. “Thank you, Sister Nan Zhi.”
Halfway through the meal, Gu Meng got up to go to the washroom. Standing in front of the mirror, she smiled at herself. She clenched her right hand and made a gesture to motivate herself.
Gu Meng, fight hard and don’t be so easily beaten!
After leaving the washroom, Gu Meng walked towards the private room. She had never been to such a high cla.s.s restaurant. The corridor was really long and every door looked the same, so she couldn’t remember which room she had come from already.
So she went to the lobby, planning to ask the service staff about it. Suddenly, she saw a suited man walking out of the elevator.
One of the men who was walking in front was wearing a black coat with a white s.h.i.+rt inside. He didn’t wear a tie, the top three exquisite b.u.t.tons unb.u.t.toned to expose his s.e.xy collarbones. He was tall, his expression cold while his facial features seemed like they were crafted by G.o.d, looking so perfect no one could point out a flaw.
He was listening to the man beside him speak, his side profile well-defined. From head to toe, he exuded a dignified, cold and strong aura.
The scars on his face could barely be seen clearly. His facial features were still the same, but she felt that he looked completely unfamiliar to her.
Gu Meng never thought that she would b.u.mp into him the moment she was released.
However, on second thought, this was a high cla.s.s restaurant in the Capital. Everyone who came here had a respectable status, so it wasn’t strange for him to have a meal meeting here.
Seeing them walk towards her, Gu Meng felt like her legs were filled with lead. She stared straight at that man, as if scared that he would disappear from her sight if she blinked.
