Chapter 9

Zhang Xiaodong wanted to get rid of this girl, but Meng Ting seemed to have stuck to him, always tugging at his clothes. Wherever he went, she followed. "I'm hungry..."

Zhang Xiaodong remembered a phrase Qiangzi had once said: never get emotionally involved with a girl like this. If you can grow old together, that's fine, but if something happens in the middle, you won't be able to get rid of her, and it might even cost you your life!

"Alright, alright, let's eat, let's eat!!" In front of them was a hot pot restaurant that looked quite upscale. But when he saw the sign across from the hot pot restaurant, Zhang Xiaodong was delighted. Wasn't this the Home Inn from last night? What a coincidence!

Meng Ting clearly noticed this too, her face turning red, and she didn't dare to look at Zhang Xiaodong. "Waiter! Order some dishes, this one! This one, and this one!! Fatty beef, the best, fatty lamb!! A pair of giant shrimp, rock cod... Bring the best wine!"

"Xiaodong, don't order so much, we can't finish it all..." Meng Ting felt a bit heartache seeing so many dishes and whispered in劝说.

"Don't worry about saving money for your brother, I have money!!" Zhang Xiaodong said loudly, like a nouveau riche. "You're so thin, eat more to build yourself up. Last night you looked pretty big, but compared to President Liu today... nutrition is very important."

Before he finished, Meng Ting's face was already as red as an apple.

"Oh, hehe. I meant your eyes." Zhang Xiaodong said awkwardly. Brother Dong, you're getting carried away with a bit of money! This isn't your usual low-key and reserved personality! "Actually, I'm ordering for myself. When I ate hot pot with Qiangzi before, I never dared to order so much. Just this once, no more next time, waste is shameful. Look at all this, you should eat more later."

"You're so nice! From childhood to now, besides my dad, you're the best to me. In the most dangerous times, you risked your life to help me twice." Meng Ting's face was red, her eyes brimming with tears. "Other boys just try to please me or take advantage of me, with bad intentions."

As she spoke, Meng Ting's tears almost fell.

Zhang Xiaodong saw that it was bad, "Meng Ting, actually, I'm like this with everyone. Don't overthink it. This meal is partly to apologize for last night and partly to celebrate making so much money. Don't worry, a girl as beautiful as you will definitely find someone you like and who likes you..."

Zhang Xiaodong felt he had made himself clear. Honestly, Meng Ting was top-notch in looks and figure, but Zhang Xiaodong just couldn't feel that kind of emotional impulse. In his heart, Zhang Xiaodong thought Meng Ting was too emotional, too introverted, and a bit too dependent. Over the years, Zhang Xiaodong had gotten used to the carefree life in bars and felt that such a girl wasn't suitable for him.

Meng Ting, though simple, wasn't stupid. After hearing Zhang Xiaodong's words, she fell silent and didn't speak. The food and drinks came, and the two chatted intermittently. Sometimes, if Zhang Xiaodong didn't ask, Meng Ting wouldn't speak at all.

What made Zhang Xiaodong frown even more was that Meng Ting seemed to be drinking one glass after another out of spite.

"Enough, don't drink anymore." Zhang Xiaodong gently advised.

"Hehe, I'm fine. I'm just happy today. This is the first time I've gone out to drink with a boy." Her cheeks were slightly red, and Meng Ting was clearly tipsy. "You don't need to worry about me, I'm fine. I know I'm stupid, I can't learn anything well. I'm not good at pleasing people... I..."

As she spoke, Meng Ting drank another glass. Meng Ting's alcohol tolerance was really poor. After this glass, her entire demeanor became hazy. People who drink with emotions get drunk easily.

"Waiter, check, please!!" "That's enough, don't drink anymore, I'll take you back!!"

"I don't want to go back~~~"

When Zhang Xiaodong helped Meng Ting up and asked her again, she had already passed out on his chest. "Hey?? Don't sleep! Where do you live? Which college at Dong University?"

He shook her a couple of times, and Meng Ting just lay on Zhang Xiaodong's shoulder. He opened her bag and took out her phone, thinking to ask her classmates. But the phone was dead! Damn!

"Please come again next time!!" the hostess of the hot pot restaurant said sweetly.

"Next time, I won't come back! The shrimp is too expensive!" Zhang Xiaodong thought. What now? His rental apartment only had a single bed. Looking up, Zhang Xiaodong saw the Home Inn with its yellow lights, where he had stayed last night. This is fate!

The front desk at Home Inn clearly recognized the two. Last night, this girl had helped the drunk boy check in, and today, the roles were reversed, with the boy helping the girl check in! Under the front desk's strange smile, Zhang Xiaodong helped Meng Ting back into the same room as last night.

He took off Meng Ting's shoes and covered her with a blanket. Originally, seeing Meng Ting's alcohol smell, he wanted to take off her clothes, but after some thought, Zhang Xiaodong didn't move. Forget it, I'll just make do on the chair! After all, I have a habit of sleeping naked. He turned off the light and took out his phone, logging into the live stream. The next moment, Zhang Xiaodong's eyes lit up in shock.

"Lan'er, take care... " Qing's words in the chat room turned into text. Looking at the online members in the live stream, a new person appeared: the Blue Fairy!

"Your Majesty, please stay..."

In an instant, the online Blue Fairy disappeared. Zhang Xiaodong only had time to open the Blue Fairy's profile. "The Blue Fairy, also known as Lan'er, is the sixth daughter of the Queen Mother. The sixth of the Seven Fairies. Lan'er, honest, gentle, a source of strength, obedient and well-behaved. That's all the information."

When Zhang Xiaodong tried to open the profile again, it was gone.

"Zizi, Lan'er is so gentle and lovely, I really don't understand why Erlang and the others like the Seven Fairies. I think Lan'er is better than anyone!! If I could become a Dao partner with Lan'er, hehehe~~~" Only Qing was left fantasizing.

"Damn, not possible! As soon as I logged in, the Sixth Fairy left, that's too precise!" Zhang Xiaodong said to the camera, feeling depressed.

"Who!! Who is talking!!" Below the South Heaven Gate, Qing's face changed. If someone had heard his words, it would be a disaster! A gatekeeper daring to fantasize about the Queen Mother's daughter, the Sixth Fairy Princess! Suddenly, Zhang Xiaodong came to mind. "Oh my, Great Immortal, you scared me to death..."
