Zhou Tao and Zhang Tingting's matter, Gu Ming didn't understand it clearly and managed it once but didn't want to manage it a second time.
It just feels a bit strange to her that before the summer vacation, she heard from Bai Fangfang that Zhou Tao had already broken up with Zhang Tingting, but now the two of them are together again.
If Zhou Tao really got back together with Zhang Tingting, then he can be considered a god.
Of course, this is just Gu Man thinking to herself, it's none of her business and she shouldn't interfere in other people's private matters.
She walked out of the mall smoothly, looking at the gifts she had bought and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Today, she spent 500 yuan to pick up a big bargain, which was considered good luck for her, but encountering Robert's affairs and Zhou Tao and Zhang Tingting just now made her feel that her luck wasn't so good after all.
It's around 6 pm now, the business street is crowded with people, and the place where people line up for taxis is even more packed. Gu Mei roughly counted that if she really lined up, she wouldn't know when it would be her turn.
They usually have dinner around 7 o'clock. In order to hurry back as soon as possible, it's better to take the crowded bus than wait for a taxi here.
During rush hour, the bus station was also packed with people. Gu Mei casually found a place to stand and waited for the bus to arrive as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, the bus she was waiting for had not arrived yet. Instead, the two people she had just tried to avoid also came to the bus stop.
Fortunately, those two people seemed to have not noticed Gu Mian who was squeezed in the crowd waiting for the bus, and continued talking to each other.
"I told you not to take the bus, why did you bring me here! You didn't even return my things, and now you're just letting me out like this. What do you want from me? Who am I to you? Say something!" Zhang Tingting impatiently shook off Zhou Tao's hand that was holding hers, completely disregarding the crowd of people who were drawn in by their argument.
"Tingting, you haven't recovered yet, don't make a fuss, go back and rest well." Zhou Tao's face was full of helplessness, but he still patiently coaxed Zhang Tingting.
"You're not my boyfriend anymore, what's it to you if I live or die?" Zhang Tingting became agitated, her eyes reddening in an instant: "Is this what I wanted? Yes, I was abandoned by someone. Are you happy now, seeing me like this makes you very pleased, doesn't it?"
Zhou Tao fell silent for a moment, then said awkwardly: "You know I didn't mean it that way. Although we've broken up, after all, we grew up together since childhood. Seeing you like this now, I couldn't just ignore you. Moreover, our matter is still unknown to your parents. Just the day before yesterday, they called me and told me to take good care of you."
"You don't want me anymore, why are you still taking care of me? Just let me go die, don't bother with me." Zhang Tingting heard Zhou Tao's words and became even angrier.
"Tingting, you've just lost the child. Don't be too anxious. I'll help you think of a way to deal with the money. You can't just go around looking for shopping malls to return goods, and if all else fails, we can even sell it on the second-hand market!" Zhou Tao kept comforting Zhang Tingting.
"You think it's easy, all my things are good, if I take them to the second-hand market, how much can I exchange for? Yes, I'm a fool, even after having a child, no one is willing to acknowledge me, I know you're all secretly laughing at me." Zhang Tingting finally couldn't bear it and burst into tears on Zhou Tao's shoulder.
Upon hearing this, the people waiting for the bus around them couldn't help but frown secretly. At the same time, they subtly moved a little to the side.
Gu Mei didn't intentionally want to eavesdrop on Zhou Tao and Zhang Tingting's conversation, mainly because the two of them were speaking too loudly. She could hear them clearly even though there were several people in between.
"I went to find Tang Ming, he said the child wasn't his..." Zhou Tao's voice was somewhat hoarse.
Zhang Tingting suddenly lifted her head. She stared at Zhou Tao, with unspeakable panic in her eyes: "Who told you to go find him? What did you say to him? What did you say?"
Zhou Tao remained silent, only tightly grasping Zhang Tingting's hand.
Bang!
Zhang Tingting saw Zhou Tao not speaking, and slapped him hard: "No wonder he would treat me like that day, it was all because of your nonsense! Zhou Tao, you're not a man, I don't want to see you again!"
"Is the child Wang Feng's or not? I've already heard that Tang Ming and you broke up a long time ago, and recently you've been hanging out with Wang Feng all the time." Zhou Tao seemed to have been slapped in the face and was furiously questioning Zhang Tingting.
Wang Feng is a rich second generation in Gu Mei's school, and he has always been involved in romantic affairs. Suddenly hearing Wang Feng's name from Zhou Tao's mouth, Gu Mei was really surprised. It wasn't until today when she met Bai Fangfang that she heard the news: Wang Feng will be engaged next month, and his fiancée is also a rich girl. They will get married after graduation.
I didn't expect that Zhang Tingting had so many admirers, but unfortunately those people seemed to have never taken her seriously.
"Get out, get out!" Zhang Tingting seemed to be enraged because Zhou Tao had exposed her shortcomings: "You have no money and no ability, you can't satisfy my needs. Now you can't even help me, what qualifications do you have to talk to me like this? If you can generously take out the money to help me solve the problem, I'll cooperate with you however you want. If not, then get out of here, I don't need you pretending to be kind!"
"You..." Zhou Tao's face turned bright red with rage, clearly furious.
The people around them also heard a rough idea and began to whisper, their eyes on Zhou Tao and Zhang Tingting were also complex and varied, anyway, none of them were good.
"Since you don't care about my concern, I won't bother with you from now on. Consider me foolish, you take care of yourself!" Zhou Tao let go of Zhang Tingting's hand, which he had been holding onto, and turned to leave without hesitation.
Zhang Tingting seemed to be shocked by Zhou Tao's move, and it wasn't until he had walked out several steps that she came back to her senses. She let out a loud cry, completely disregarding her image as she burst into tears: "You don't want me either, you're also disgusted with me... what's the point of my living... I might as well..."
Gu Mei didn't have the leisure to continue listening, the bus she was waiting for finally arrived, and after taking a last glance at Zhang Tingting who was crying with tears streaming down her face, she quickly followed the crowd and squeezed onto the bus.
As the car started moving, she seemed to see Zhou Tao walking back towards Zhang Tingting through the window.
"Did you see that couple just now? They're really over-the-top, what with the kid and all. The more I hear about it, the funnier it gets." The women who got on the bus with Gu Mian started chattering among themselves.
"It's obvious at a glance that the man was being played around by the woman."
"Do you think he will really ignore her in the end?"
"I bet that man will definitely end up in the palm of that woman's hand."
"You're so bad, haha..."
Gu Mei listened to the discussion of several women beside her, and couldn't help but curl her lip. It seemed that Zhou Tao was indeed being taken advantage of by Zhang Tingting.
She thought Zhou Tao had learned a lesson from last time, but unexpectedly he was still like this.
But what Tang Ming said about Zhou Tao in the house on Jibao Mountain, wasn't it referring to Zhang Tingting's pregnancy?
Gu Meng couldn't help but shiver, fortunately she didn't have nothing better to do and go pay attention to these broken things.
When she got home, Ji Yun had just brought the finished dishes to the table. Seeing Gu Mian return, she hurriedly invited Gu Mian to wash his hands and prepare for dinner.
Grandfather heard Gu Mian's returning voice and also walked out of the room.
Because of the big fuss that Auntie made last time she came, Grandpa's mood hasn't been good lately. Although Grandpa later called Uncle to scold him severely, Uncle didn't come to visit after that day either.
It's not hard to see that Second Uncle didn't say anything, but he was still somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that Gu Qing and his family neither borrowed money nor a house.
Gu Mian heard from her mother that although there wasn't much money left at home, Grandpa still took out some from his private room, planning to give it to Second Uncle and Aunt when they came next time. Unfortunately, Second Uncle and Aunt never came, not even a phone call, and both sides just remained in this stalemate.
After dinner, in order to make Grandpa happy, Gu Mei quickly took out the gifts she bought today and declared that they were all purchased with the bonus given by Old Zheng after selling the rhinoceros horn cup.
Grandfather and mother were both very happy after hearing it, and they repeatedly praised Gu Mei for being capable.
"Isn't this lighter expensive?" Grandpa looked at the gemstone lighter in his hand, and gazed at Gu Mian with some disapproval: "Mianmian, after you got your bonus, just showing some consideration is enough, don't be too extravagant. You're a girl, it's better to buy something you like for yourself."
"It's okay, this pack of cigarettes only cost 500 yuan. I know Grandpa and your friends like to smoke their own brand of cigarettes. You take this out and you'll definitely be able to show off in front of your friends." Gu Mei said with a smile.
Grandpa's several friends are about the same as old children, they love to show off each other for no reason.
"It's not expensive at 500 yuan, this cigarette box is quite beautiful, the inlaid thing should be synthetic gemstones?" Mama Ji Yun immediately put on the earrings that Gu Mian had bought and said, looking at the cigarette box shining under the light.
"This isn't a synthetic gemstone!" Gu Mei shook her head, recounting in detail the big bargain she had found at the flower and bird market, causing her mom and grandpa to exclaim in surprise.
Grandpa immediately said that such an expensive cigarette case can't be taken out casually, it must be well preserved. The expression on Grandpa's face showed that he was very happy now, and the hand holding the cigarette case didn't want to let go.
As for what happened with Robert at Old Man Huang's house later on, she didn't say a word, so as not to worry Mom and Grandpa.
"By the way, Mengmeng, why can't I get through to your cell phone? Someone called home before you came in and said they had something to discuss with you." Mom suddenly remembered.
"Who's looking for me?" Gu Meng asked curiously.
Ding dong...... Ding dong......
Before his mother could answer, the doorbell rang.
Gu Mei pressed down on her mother who wanted to get up and ran to open the door herself.
