Soon, the car arrived at the school gate. After getting out, Bing Tianyi asked Old Huang to book a private room at the Small Restaurant across from the school, then headed into the school alone to look for Mei Yuan.
After dialing Mei Yuan's number, before Bing Tianyi could say anything, Mei Yuan cheerfully said on the other end of the line, "Brother Bing, what brings you to find me?"
"I'm waiting for you at the East Gate. Come over right away," Bing Tianyi said in a low voice.
Once Bing Tianyi finished speaking, Mei Yuan paused for a moment and pretended to be awkward as she replied, "I'm really sorry, but I don't have time right now. Can we meet tomorrow instead?"
"No, come over immediately," Bing Tianyi replied firmly.
Of course, Bing Tianyi was well aware of the little thoughts running through Mei Yuan's mind at that moment. She was definitely worried about being scolded by him, which was why she was deliberately making excuses.
Sure enough, after Bing Tianyi said this, Mei Yuan became much more serious and curiously asked him over the phone, "What do you need to talk to me about?"
"You need to come over right now; I have something very important to discuss with you," Bing Tianyi said, feeling a bit angry and not wanting to explain too much.
Upon hearing this from Bing Tianyi, Mei Yuan quickly agreed, "Alright then, I'll come over now."
Bing Tianyi hung up the phone and squatted down beside him, lighting a cigarette for himself. Time passed quickly, and soon twenty minutes had gone by.
Just as Bing Tianyi was about to call Mei Yuan again to check if she was coming, he unexpectedly saw her walking towards him with another girl. The girl beside Mei Yuan looked quite good; however, it was worth mentioning that Bing Tianyi felt like he had seen her somewhere before, though he couldn't recall exactly where.
As Mei Yuan approached, Bing Tianyi stepped forward and coldly remarked, "You finally made it."
"What's wrong? Do you think I wouldn't dare to come?" Mei Yuan retorted.
Bing Tianyi felt even more displeased seeing the nonchalant expression on Mei Yuan's face. With a cold sigh, Bing Tianyi turned and said directly, "Come with me."
Mei Yuan didn't ask too many questions and followed behind Bing Tianyi. The three of them headed straight to the private room that Old Huang had reserved in advance.
Since the distance wasn't far, they quickly arrived at their destination. At the entrance, Bing Tianyi stopped. Behind him, Mei Yuan feigned surprise and asked, "Brother Bing, so you wanted to treat me to a meal? Why didn't you say so earlier? I could have arrived a few minutes early."
"Heh, do you think this meal is that good?" Bing Tianyi replied before turning again and stepping into the restaurant.
Upon hearing this, Mei Yuan stood still, her big eyes curiously fixed on Bing Tianyi as she asked, "What? Do you have something else going on?"
"You'll know once we go in," Bing Tianyi said quietly.
Mei Yuan glanced at the girl beside her and then smiled, saying, "A Xiao, why don't you head to school first?"
"Don't. Since we're already here, it wouldn't hurt to go in together," Bing Tianyi sneered.
After hearing this, A Xiao looked at Bing Tianyi and could tell from his expression that today's situation was quite complicated. Moreover, she knew the relationship between Bing Tianyi and Mei Yuan. If she went in now and something conflicted arose between them, it would be difficult for her to extricate herself later.
No matter how good the relationship was, it was best not to be a third wheel.
Thinking of this, A Xiao immediately said to Mei Yuan, "Sister Mei, I'll head out first. Look for me at school."
"Okay," Mei Yuan nodded in agreement. After watching A Xiao turn to leave, she stepped forward and directly asked Bing Tianyi, "So, what is this all about?"
"I told you, you'll know once you go in," Bing Tianyi said impatiently.
Mei Yuan sneered and followed Bing Tianyi to the private room on the second floor. After entering, Old Huang glanced at Bing Tianyi and Mei Yuan, then stood up awkwardly and asked Bing Tianyi, "Boss Bing, should I step out for a moment?"
"Step out for what? Just sit here," Bing Tianyi replied bluntly.
For Bing Tianyi, it didn't matter if Old Huang knew about this; after all, it was Mei Yuan who caused the situation.
However, Old Huang felt a bit awkward sitting there. But since Bing Tianyi said so, he didn’t want to say much and just sat down, watching as Bing Tianyi took a seat across from him.
Once Mei Yuan sat down, Bing Tianyi signaled Old Huang to lock the door. Old Huang nodded in agreement and locked the door. Before Bing Tianyi could speak, Mei Yuan curiously asked, "Tianyi, why were you in such a hurry to find me? What’s going on?"
"Heh, what do you think it is? Let me ask you, what’s going on with Su Qin?" Bing Tianyi's expression turned serious as he stared intently at Mei Yuan.
Upon hearing this, a strange look appeared on Mei Yuan's face. However, to Bing Tianyi's surprise, Mei Yuan showed no signs of hiding anything and directly said to him, "Tianyi, it was my doing. But you should know the context of this situation, right? If it weren't for Su Qin deliberately sowing discord between us, would I have treated her that way?"
"Do you know how Su Qin is doing now?" Bing Tianyi asked with a frown.
Mei Yuan scoffed, "How would I know what she's up to? It has nothing to do with me. But Tianyi, are you here to defend Su Qin?"
"What if I said yes? What would you think?" Bing Tianyi asked with a cold smile.
Upon hearing this from Bing Tianyi, Mei Yuan feigned surprise and asked, "Bing Tianyi, have you lost your mind? Don't you remember when Su Qin brought people to smash your family's Dumpling Stall?"
After Mei Yuan finished speaking, Bing Tianyi was astonished. He had lived in Huating County Town for so many years and had never met Mei Yuan. Moreover, only a few people knew about that incident back then; he never expected that she would also be aware of it.
After realizing this, Bing Tianyi curiously looked at Mei Yuan and asked, "How did you know about this?"
"Me? I heard it from someone," Mei Yuan immediately answered Bing Tianyi's question, but from the look in his eyes, Bing Tianyi knew that Mei Yuan was lying at that moment.
However, since Bing Tianyi had already seen through it, there was no need to expose her. To be honest, with his current abilities, it wouldn't be too difficult to investigate someone's identity if he really wanted to.
Thinking of this, Bing Tianyi sighed helplessly and said, "If I told you that I don't hate Su Qin at all regarding that incident, would you believe me?"
"Why? Why don't you hate him? It is said that the stall was the foundation of your family's livelihood!" Mei Yuan continued to ask.
Bing Tianyi felt frustrated; if Mei Yuan had come from another city, then her abilities were definitely extraordinary. From the way she spoke, it seemed like Mei Yuan knew a lot about his past.
Even though he was relatively famous now, if Mei Yuan had only heard about him, her tone wouldn't be so certain.
After a brief consideration, Bing Tianyi looked at Mei Yuan and continued, "Alright, listen carefully. If it weren't for Su Qin leading people to smash our stall back then, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today. So I don't hate Su Qin; instead, I'm quite grateful to him."
Upon hearing this from Bing Tianyi, Mei Yuan seemed to realize something and lowered her head in silence. After a moment, she looked up at Bing Tianyi with a pitiful expression and said, "But Tianyi, I've liked you since the first time I saw you. I don't want our relationship to be ruined by the involvement of other girls."
Bing Tianyi had actually guessed that Mei Yuan thought this way long ago, so he wasn't particularly surprised when she expressed it now.
Once Mei Yuan finished speaking, Bing Tianyi nodded and said, "I can see your feelings for me, but your actions towards Su Qin are too harsh. Do you feel better about it?"
Faced with Bing Tianyi's question, Mei Yuan had nothing more to say and began to sob quietly in front of him.
Seeing this situation nearby, Old Huang quickly approached Bing Tianyi and whispered, "Boss Bing, she's still a girl; try not to be too harsh when talking."
Old Huang saw that Mei Yuan and Bing Tianyi were not far apart in age, and at that moment, seeing Mei Yuan in tears, he softened his heart and didn't think too much about it.
Bing Tianyi sighed and said, "Old Huang, this isn't me being harsh. Think about it, a girl who, after being insulted, resorts to such cruel means that nearly cost someone their life—how can she possibly enter society after this?"
As soon as Bing Tianyi finished speaking, Mei Yuan slowly raised her head and looked at Bing Tianyi with curiosity, asking, "Tianyi, have you forgotten the promise you made to me some time ago? If you remembered it, would I have acted this way?"
Bing Tianyi was at a loss for words. To be honest, he had promised Mei Yuan not to pursue Wang Ziyan due to business matters, but who would have thought that Mei Yuan would take this so seriously?
Sitting in the chair, Bing Tianyi's face showed regret as he looked at Mei Yuan and said softly, "Mei Yuan, if you really understand my situation, you must know what happened between Wang Ziyan and me. You asked me not to be with Wang Ziyan, and I did that. But is it wrong for us to simply have a meal together? Do you really feel upset about that?"
After Bing Tianyi finished speaking, Mei Yuan nodded without much thought and said, "Yes, I felt upset about that."
"Is that why you went after Su Qin?" Bing Tianyi asked curiously.
"Yes," Mei Yuan replied without hesitation, looking directly at Bing Tianyi.
Hearing this, Bing Tianyi was taken aback for a moment. After a while, he helplessly said, "Mei Yuan, you should try to adjust your mindset. If this continues, even if I want to be with you in the future, I wouldn't dare."
Old Huang murmured softly from the side, "Are you really afraid that such a beautiful girl will eat you up?"
