”Alright …” I wobbled to Han Mengchen's side and put my arm around her shoulders. ”Dearest, let's go eat.”
Han Mengchen blushed a bit and said softly, ”Young Master Zhang, this is my boyfriend. Please don't bother me anymore.”
”I don't believe it. Meng Chen, how could you like such a country bumpkin! ” Young Master Zhang stood up angrily and glared at me.
Guan Rou frowned and said, ”Young Master Zhang, you're too excessive. He's Meng Chen's boyfriend, how can you talk like that!”
Young Master Zhang frowned and said to me, ”Kid, where are you from? How dare you steal my woman? Do you know who I am?”
”I don't know …” I looked at him as if I was looking at an idiot.
”You …” You don't even know who I am! ” Young Master Zhang stared back at me and angrily said, ”You country bumpkin, you dare to fight with me over a woman? Just you wait!”
”I already said I don't know, so why are you so angry!” Zhang Shaoyin threw the flowers onto the ground with a dark expression. Then, he turned around and got into the car. Then, he drove away slowly.
Han Mengchen smiled and said, ”Thank you so much. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do.”
”What, just thanks will do?” ”Why don't you treat us to a good meal?”
”I know a new restaurant. The dishes are not bad, I'll treat you guys to a meal!” The three of us drove to the new restaurant, ordered some specialties, and sat around the table. I unceremoniously wolfed down my food. If there's anything, I'll fill my stomach first.
”It's great that you guys are here today. That Young Master Zhang is famous in the city for being a playboy.” Han Mengchen took a sip of the drink and said softly, ”He wanted to chase me because he has some money in his family. He's been pestering me for quite a while already.”
Guan Rou softly said, ”Who told you to be so beautiful? In the past, there have been many handsome boys chasing after you when you were still in school.”
Han Mengchen said softly, ”Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Hurry up and eat.”
Guan Rou took a bite of the dish. With a frown, she said, ”By the way, let's talk about some serious matters. You've been having nightmares recently. What's going on?”
”It's better not to talk about it. It's a weirdo at night.”
”With Coffin Liu here, what are you afraid of?”
”Liu...” ”Coffin Liu?” I was slightly stunned before I hastily replied, ”My name is Liu Guan Sheng, not Liu Shu!”
”Puchi …” I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ” Guan Rou covered her mouth and laughed, making Han Mengchen laugh.
I helplessly said, ”What's so funny about that? I didn't come up with this name myself.”
”Then why are you called Liu Shangguan Sheng?” It sounds like a weird name. ”
”Because I was born in a coffin.” These two girls are just making fun of me,
Han Mengchen was surprised. ”Born in a coffin?”
”Why are you talking about me now? Aren't you guys talking about your matters?”
”I think we should find somewhere else to talk. How about we go over to my place? We can get together at the same time.” With that, Han Mengchen paid the bill. The two of them went to the supermarket to buy some drinks, and brought me over to their house.
Han Mengchen's family lived in a residential area not far from the school. They rented a house and lived in a few ordinary residential buildings. The environment was pretty quiet.
”Come in and take a seat!” Han Mengchen reached out to turn on the light and took out a few cold beers from the fridge.
The two sisters sat on the sofa and said slowly while sipping their beer, ”Take a seat as well. There's no need to be polite.”
I sat on the sofa at the side and asked softly, ”Can we get down to proper business?”
Guan Rou passed me a can of beer and said, ”You can have one too. We'll talk while we drink!”
I stretched my hand out to take a sip of beer. ”It's getting late. If there's really nothing else, I'll really be leaving.”
Guan Rou drank her wine and said softly, ”Meng Chen, tell me about your nightmare. I also want to know what happened.”
”Alright, then I'll explain it to you. Don't be afraid, you two.”
For the past few days, I've always been dreaming that I was in a small forest, and the forest was very dark. I ran with all my might, and someone was chasing after me, and I saw a mat on the lawn in front of me, and there seemed to be a person lying under the mat. I walked over and lifted the mat.
”But that man suddenly sat up and grabbed my arm, and then I woke up!”
This went on for a month. Every night I dreamed about the man, and then I felt as if I was followed every day, and I became nervous myself, and I didn't even dare to sleep. I always felt like someone was in the house.
