Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 210 - 193: No Respect_3

In the car, Li Si noticed the smirk on Leng Mochen’s lips and shot him a sideways glance, "What? You think it’s funny, don’t you?"

Leng Mochen nodded in agreement. He truly hadn’t expected such twists and turns among girls.

Li Si sighed, "I suspect the gathering is fake, and the real motive is to see you! Why are you so magnetic?"

Leng Mochen helplessly touched his nose. He had already been cold and distant to the others—what more could he do?

"And those girls... You’re like an ice block, yet they keep throwing themselves at you one after another! Do they not like warm and enthusiastic guys? Are they all masochists or what?"

"Oh? Could it be that you also have masochistic tendencies?" Leng Mochen questioned with deep implication in his gaze.

Li Si quickly refuted, "I’m not! You’ve never been cold to me, have you?" Now that she mentioned it, it was true—since their first meeting, he’d always treated her extraordinarily well.

"Glad you know that! Alright then, come eat with me!" Leng Mochen tousled her hair gently. Checking his watch, he thought, even if they couldn’t get meat for dinner, at least they could enjoy some broth.

"Sure, let’s just pick a random spot nearby. Actually, I have a little storefront close to here. The former tenant moved out last year, so it’s been vacant. I might as well stop by and check on it!"

Li Si’s previous tenant, a young woman, had quit the business due to average sales and pregnancy, leaving the space empty. Li Si hadn’t bothered to find another renter since then.

"You certainly own a lot of properties! When did you buy this one?" Leng Mochen dotingly tapped her on the forehead. This little rascal’s knack for hoarding properties hadn’t gone to waste—she had at least made smart investments after being reborn.

"Speaking of that, it was before I met you. Right after buying this one, I ran into you! Oh, I just realized—ever since I met you, other than the one I sold to Meng Hao, I haven’t bought another property!"

Li Si reminisced with a cheerful smile. She recalled how she’d stumbled through some real estate purchases via agencies before meeting Leng Mochen through a gamble on jade stones, and her wallet had nearly dried up.

Indeed, time flew by. Now, she was his fiancée. Life was unpredictable—who could have foreseen all this?

"Even if you haven’t bought more properties, it’s fine. Once Mo Si Real Estate launches, all those houses will be yours anyway!" Leng Mochen doted on her endlessly. Her adorable, slightly clueless demeanor was irresistibly charming—he simply couldn’t get enough of her!

"You’re absolutely right! By then, I’ll just pick whichever ones I want! So satisfying! Oh no, I better stop thinking about it, or I’ll laugh myself awake tonight!" Li Si fastened her seatbelt. "Alright, let’s go! Follow my directions!"

Leng Mochen started the car, heading toward University City as guided by her.

Meanwhile, Ling Wei had hurriedly arrived and was venting her frustration on Du Juan. She hadn’t expected Li Si to show such blatant disregard. For most people, entering a new environment meant trying to build connections, right?

But not Li Si. Aside from chatting and laughing with Liu Xiaole, she’d remained indifferent toward everyone else.

Ling Wei was inwardly furious. She had planned to see Leng Bing today, and if she managed to get acquainted, she wasn’t worried about getting him attracted to her later.

After all, from looks and figure to family background, wasn’t she far superior to Li Si? Leng Bing didn’t seem like an average Joe—his attire and aura practically screamed affluence. Plus, a man as masculine and charismatic as him was undeniably attractive.

She had initially thought choosing Wang Zhe as a boyfriend wasn’t bad. While he wasn’t particularly handsome, he listened to her, spoiled her, and had a decent family background.

But ever since she met Leng Bing, her entire outlook had been upturned. Comparing people is a dangerous game—it only leads to heartbreak!

It frustrated her immeasurably. How could Wang Zhe ever measure up to Leng Bing? And why did someone as ordinary as Li Si deserve such an incredible boyfriend? She wasn’t worthy!

Du Juan, seeing Ling Wei’s tumultuous expressions, kept silent while shrinking to the side, feeling quite aggrieved herself. Li Si was a living human being—she said she was unavailable; what could Du Juan do, tie her up?

Moreover, her boyfriend exuded an intimidating aura. Looking at him was enough to make her uneasy. They clearly weren’t the same kind of people. How could they possibly sit down and eat with her? She had doubts!

Besides, because of Ling Wei’s request, Du Juan had even declined a dinner invite from her hometown friends. Otherwise, she’d have feasted tonight. Now she was left here, with an empty stomach!

Ling Wei snapped out of her thoughts after a few seconds and saw Du Juan’s aggrieved expression. She plastered an apologetic smile on her face: "Juanzi, don’t take what I said earlier to heart."

"I was just thinking—you know, it’s rare for us to cross paths like this and share a dormitory. And since she’s new here, it’s fate, so I thought we could all get together."

"Sure, that’s what I thought too. But who knew she’d be so disrespectful! It’s like she wiped her shoes on our dignity!" Du Juan pouted, clearly echoing Ling Wei’s sentiment.

"Maybe she’s just prideful and looks down on us! Either way, I’m not going to ask anything of her in the future. As long as things stay decent enough for appearances, that’s fine by me. Now, what do you say to getting some barbecue?"

Ling Wei knew Du Juan well from years of friendship—she knew exactly what would cheer her up and make her follow along voluntarily.

Du Juan affectionately hooked her arm around Ling Wei’s, "Weiwei, you’re the best! Let’s go to Lucky Barbecue! Their food is delicious!" She knew Ling Wei simply used her, but deep down, she still tried to spare Ling Wei expenses, opting for an affordable spot. novelbuddy-cσ๓

Little did she know, while Ling Wei agreed enthusiastically, she secretly rolled her eyes. Such taste—she couldn’t help but scoff. Lucky Barbecue was just a small, unimpressive restaurant. If it weren’t for needing an entourage, she wouldn’t be caught dead walking with Du Juan. Sometimes, frankly, it was embarrassing! (To be continued.
