Chapter 148 A Slight Smile Is Alluring 1
Meng Yiran rarely drinks in this life because his family is strict.
Plus there were two older brothers and other brothers of the opposite sex, so he and she drank the beverages.
Zhen Shaoxiang drank quite a bit as well. He even hugged Meng Yifan and muttered the name of an unknown girlfriend.
Apart from Zhen Shaoxiang, Zhuo Qingyun was the one who drank the most.
At that time, everyone was talking about recent developments and giving each other advice, but Zhuo Qingyun was the only one drinking silently.
It’s not that Meng Yifan and the others didn’t try to try to stop them, but as soon as they approached, Zhuo Qingyun would make a fuss and ask them to stay away.
Even if the eldest brother Sheng Xinian went over, it would be of no use. The few people had no choice but to let her drink.
When the party was over, Meng Yifan had to take care of his cousin Zhen Shaoxiang, and Li Yunkai had also drunk quite a bit.
As for Sheng Xinian, considering his identity and the impact it would have, Feng Anyan volunteered to speak in the end.
"I'll take Qingyun there, and Yunkai can just let him stay in a hotel. Yifan, your brother Yiran can't handle it alone.
Feng Anyan's words relieved Meng Yifan's guilt. He actually knew why Zhuo Qingyun drank so much tonight.
In fact, except for Meng Yiran and Zhen Shaoxiang who were unaware of the situation, everyone else should know that Zhuo Qingyun was feeling depressed tonight.
As for Meng Yiran, after experiencing several lifetimes, he is no longer the ignorant Yun Ruo who only knew how to eat and play.
Although she is not a smart person now, she is not bad. However, since no one said it clearly, she just pretended to be deaf and dumb.
After sending Zhuo Qingyun, Sheng Xinian, Li Yunkai and the others away, Meng Yifan and his sister helped Zhen Shaoxiang into the car.
After getting in the car, Meng Yiran keenly noticed that her brother was not in a good mood.
I also thought of the light that flashed in Zhuo Qingyun's eyes when she saw Meng Yifan. This emotion that had nowhere to hide could be seen even by an outsider who knew nothing.
Combined with what Sheng Xinian and Feng Anyan said and did tonight, she knew that these people also knew what Zhuo Qingyun was thinking.
However, the only person who made Meng Yiran a little confused was her eldest brother Meng Yifan.
By now, Zhen Shaoxiang had already fallen asleep in the back seat, and the eldest brother's mood was obviously a mess.
Meng Yiran decided to ask his elder brother. If the two really have feelings for each other, other problems can always be solved. If it is just one-sided love, then it can't always go on like this!
"Brother, does Sister Qingyun like you?"
Meng Yifan wanted to deny it, but when he thought of his sister's personality, he knew that she would not say it if she was not sure.
Meng Yiran looked at her brother and was not surprised to see that he didn't answer, so she asked another question.
"So, brother, do you like Sister Qingyun?"
After asking the question, she found that Meng Yifan frowned rarely, as if the question was very difficult.
"Brother, is this difficult to answer? Like it or not, just ask your heart."
Meng Yifan thought about it and finally shook his head.
Meng Yiran thought to himself, as expected, if his brother really liked Zhuo Qingyun, judging from how long these people had known each other and how they got along.
The two should have been a couple a long time ago, they wouldn't be in this situation like they are now.
"Then have you ever explicitly rejected Sister Qingyun?
Meng Yifan sighed. This was the most embarrassing part. Zhuo Qingyun had never confessed her feelings to him, so it was difficult for Meng Yifan to refuse even if he wanted to.
You can't just go up to someone and say, "Don't like me, I don't like you."
"But don't worry. Although Qingyun never confessed her feelings, I was not able to reject her explicitly. But I still rejected her indirectly."
Meng Yifan leaned his hand on the steering wheel with his forehead in annoyance. If it were anyone else, he would have just solved the problem without caring about their face. The worst that could happen would be that the two of them would never have anything to do with each other again.
But this is Zhuo Qingyun, a friend he has known since childhood. The two of them and Li Yunkai grew up together.
Even Feng Anyan and Sheng Xinian cannot compare to this kind of affection.
Of course, the other two also have a very good relationship with them, otherwise Meng Yifan would never have been able to bring his younger brothers and sisters to their party.
Meng Yifan said in a muffled voice: "I even thought about asking Sheng Xinian, Feng Anyan and others to introduce some high-quality men to Qingyun.
But I didn't do it in the end. I had no right to make such a decision for Qingyun. She is a person, not an object.
I can't just give her to anyone just because I don't like her. I can't do that."
Meng Yiran patted his brother's shoulder with understanding.
"Luckily you didn't do that. If you had done that, I would have called you a scumbag."
Meng Yifan raised his head helplessly and gently tapped his sister's forehead.
"I'm not that bad, but I can't force feelings. So when she drank alone today, I didn't know what to do.
I have also thought about being with her. In our class, there are actually many business marriages without emotions. As long as both parties make a good agreement, they can still live a good life with mutual respect.
But I know this is not what Qingyun wants. What she wants is a true love. But I can give her the identity of a girlfriend or even a wife, but I can't give her love."
Hearing this, Meng Yiran was a little confused. In her opinion, feelings are just a spice of life, not a necessity.
If you want to find someone to fall in love with, then do it. If you don’t want to, that’s okay too. Just like in her previous life, although she had no one to fall in love with, she had a family and a prince, so she lived a happy life anyway.
She really couldn't understand Zhuo Qingyun's thoughts.
"Why don't you go get a girlfriend?"
After saying this, Meng Yiran slapped himself on the mouth frantically.
"No, no, no, please don't do this. It's not fair to the girl. Forget it. I can't control your matter. Just let you solve it yourself."
Although Meng Yiran said this, he had made up his mind in his heart to take some time to find Zhuo Qingyun to go shopping and relax.
Maybe it can make Sister Qingyun feel more open-minded or happier, and I can take her out for a trip during the holidays. Maybe Sister Qingyun has seen too many pretty girls and will no longer like her brother!
