Chapter 1231: The Structure of the Harem

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
In fact, Chen Mengyan was anxious because she wanted to ask about the situation between Zhou Jiajia and Yang Ming. Yang Ming and Zhou Jiajia attended the same class; if Yang Ming came to the school, Zhou Jiajia would see Yang Ming at the first moment.
There was no news of Yang Ming for the whole morning, so Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun were naturally anxious. Seeing that Zhou Jiajia entered the entrance of the cafeteria, she waved her hand. “Jiajia, here!”
Zhou Jiajia also saw Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun and walked quickly with a smile. However, because it was noon, there were more people in the cafeteria. After Zhou Jiajia took two steps, she accidentally bumped into a classmate. Unfortunately, the classmate was holding a plate of fried noodles in her hands. When her hands shook, the fried noodles fell to the ground and splashed Zhou Jiajia’s pants.
However, because she was the one who knocked into the other, Zhou Jiajia would naturally not blame others. She apologetically looked at the girl in front of her and said, embarrassed, “I’m sorry. I knocked into you. Let me buy you another bowl?”
The girl wanted to erupt even before she made a grunt, but before she could react, she suddenly saw that the person in front of her was Zhou Jiajia. So she immediately recovered and smiled. “It doesn’t matter. I will buy it myself.”
Jing Xiaolu’s shoes were bought when she went shopping together with Yang Ming; Jing Xiaolu naturally cherished them. Although the fried noodles didn’t stain her clothes and trousers, some of them were splashed on her shoes. It made Jing Xiaolu feel heartsore.
Whoever encountered this situation would also be angry. However, when Jing Xiaolu saw that it was Zhou Jiajia, her anger disappeared. Regarding Zhou Jiajia, Jing Xiaolu still knew something about her. Of course, all these came from the mouth of Ge Xinyao. Therefore, Jing Xiaolu knew that there was a deep relationship between Zhou Jiajia and Yang Ming, and she was probably even one of Yang Ming’s girlfriends. When Jing Xiaolu saw Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun not far from Zhou Jiajia, she was even more convinced of this. The three people came together to eat lunch at noon; it couldn’t help but explain some questions.
“How can that be? I will buy it for you!” Zhou Jiajia thought that the other party would also blame her. After all, it was her fault, and she also dirtied the other’s shoes. Although there was no need to fight, there certainly would still be a few words of complaint. She just didn’t expect the other party to be so peaceful, and the other party didn’t even want her to buy another bowl of fried noodles.
Jing Xiaolu was also being polite in the beginning, but after she saw Zhou Jiajia insisting, she also nodded and agreed. To be able to be associated with Zhou Jiajia meant that she could also be integrated into the small circle of Yang Ming’s harem. Jing Xiaolu schemed secretly in her heart. “Then let’s go together.”
Chen Mengyan also feared that Zhou Jiajia would suffer a bitter end, and also ran to Zhou Jiajia’s side. But after she saw the other party was very understanding, she was relieved. Because Jing Xiaolu had completely changed her outfit from the initial non-mainstream to the current youthful style of a student, Chen Mengyan really did not recognize her as the former Jing Xiaolu.
“Mengyan, I am going to accompany this classmate to buy fried noodles; wait for me!” Zhou Jiajia smiled at Chen Mengyan and explained. Chen Mengyan also witnessed the whole process of the incident, so she nodded very happily at the moment.
Jing Xiaolu and Zhou Jiajia walked together to the cafeteria’s sales window. Jing Xiaolu smiled and said, “I don’t plan to buy fried noodles. I regretted after buying the fried noodles. I was sad just now before you knocked into me. Hehe , this time, I am going to buy a Donburi [1].”
Zhou Jiajia didn’t know whether Jing Xiaolu was for real or not, but she felt that Jing Xiaolu’s character was very good and very approachable. She couldn’t help but feel a little better about her. “It seems that I have done something good unintentionally?”
“Yeah,” Jing Xiaolu nodded in a serious way. “Right, my name is Jing Xiaolu, from the Arts Department.”
“Zhou Jiajia, computer science.” Zhou Jiajia also quickly introduced herself. “You are in the Arts Department? Are you learning performing arts?”
“No, I am studying art, but I am also involved in computers. Many of our courses use computers to make animations.” Jing Xiaolu smiled and said, “I am still worried about not knowing any computer science students. My computer often has problems, and I don’t know how to solve them. This is good. If there is a problem in the future, I can ask you; you can’t refuse it!”
“Naturally, there’s no problem in that.” Zhou Jiajia readily agreed; Jing Xiaolu’s request was very common. Both of them were now considered as acquainted; Zhou Jiajia was also very happy to have Jing Xiaolu as a friend.
Jing Xiaolu didn’t really understand computers such as installing software and anti-virus, so she didn’t really lie to Zhou Jiajia. Although she wanted to approach Zhou Jiajia deliberately, she did not want to deceive her. After all, if she lied now, it would be detrimental to her if she were exposed in the future.
The two came together to the sales window for the rice bowls, and Jing Xiaolu ordered a beef persimmon rice bowl. Zhou Jiajia saw that it looked good, so she also ordered one. Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun had already ordered their meals, so she didn’t need to worry about them.
When it was time to pay, Zhou Jiajia rushed to swipe her card, and Jing Xiaolu did not dispute too much.
“How come there are so many people today? It seems that it is not easy to find a spot.” Jing Xiaolu looked at the people in the cafeteria and pretended to sigh subconsciously.
“You can eat with us; my friends are there.” Zhou Jiajia pointed to Chen Mengyan and said.
Jing Xiaolu originally wanted to eat with Zhou Jiajia, Chen Mengyan, and Lin Zhiyun; she just wanted Zhou Jiajia to invite her. Now that Zhou Jiajia gave out an invitation, Jing Xiaolu readily accepted it.
The two returned to the table with the newly bought rice bowls, and Jing Xiaolu pretended to be surprised when she saw Lin Zhiyun. “Lin Zhiyun, you are here too?”
Lin Zhiyun naturally knew Jing Xiaolu. Jing Xiaolu and her roommate, Ge Xinyao, were good sisters, and Jing Xiaolu often looked for Ge Xinyao to play. So she was very familiar with Lin Zhiyun.
Just because Ge Xinyao was present, Jing Xiaolu couldn’t be too close to Lin Zhiyun. Then, it would be obvious that some of her purposes and motives were not pure. If Ge Xinyao found out, she would definitely scold her. Therefore, although Jing Xiaolu and Lin Zhiyun were very familiar, they never went out to play or have dinner together.
“Jing Xiaolu, what a coincidence.” Lin Zhiyun smiled sweetly. Lin Zhiyun was a very easy going person, and Jing Xiaolu’s recent changes were also in her eyes, so she was not as repulsed to Jing Xiaolu as before. She saw the dispute between Jing Xiaolu and Zhou Jiajia just now and wanted to help persuade, but Chen Mengyan went over first.
To save the table, Lin Zhiyun could not leave, so she had to watch from there. But seeing Jing Xiaolu’s attitude towards Zhou Jiajia, Lin Zhiyun approved very much. She thought that Jing Xiaolu had really become better, not as arrogant as before.
“Jing Xiaolu?” Chen Mengyan had a slight shock. The name was very familiar. After a closer look, Chen Mengyan finally recognized her. The person in front of her was the reckless non-mainstream girl who she met when she once ate with Yang Ming in the cafeteria not long after she entered college, and who Yang Ming later poured porridge on.
The huge changes between the past and present made Chen Mengyan really puzzled! If she didn’t hear the name, Chen Mengyan would never have connected the two together.
“You… are Sister Chen Mengyan, right?” Jing Xiaolu said obediently and modestly to Chen Mengyan.
“You recognize me?” Chen Mengyan also confirmed at the moment that the person in front of her was the once non-mainstream girl. However, Chen Mengyan did not think that Jing Xiaolu’s courtesy to Zhou Jiajia was shown because she saw herself. From Jing Xiaolu’s manner of dress, Chen Mengyan had seen the change. The original Jing Xiaolu was no different from a delinquent girl in society; the current Jing Xiaolu was more like a vibrant student.
“Yeah, I am really sorry about last time.” Jing Xiaolu adjusted her hair and said, “I wasn’t sensible in the past; now I’ve grown up.”
Hearing Jing Xiaolu say that she was not sensible before and now she grew up, Chen Mengyan couldn’t help but smile. Now it seemed that Jing Xiaolu was quite cute. At the very least, Chen Mengyan’s impression of her was much better.
“You can still remember me, hehe .” Since Jing Xiaolu said this, Chen Mengyan could no longer dwell in the things of the past. She said, “Let’s just forget about the things of the past. The most important thing is that you can get rid of those bad habits.”
“Thank you, Sister Mengyan,” said Jing Xiaolu quickly.
“Why do you call me Sister?” Chen Mengyan was a bit puzzled by Jing Xiaolu’s address.
“I started school a year earlier, so I am younger than you.” Jing Xiaolu quickly explained, “Also, the last time I was in trouble, it was thanks to Brother Yang Ming for saving me. Otherwise, I really don’t know what to do. Now, I work for a company that Brother Yang Ming introduced to me.”
“I see…” Chen Mengyan really didn’t know that Jing Xiaolu had met with Yang Ming after the incident, and Yang Ming also helped her. However, being called Sister Mengyan by an outsider, Chen Mengyan was still a bit uncomfortable. Although Lin Zhiyun called her that at home, it was the address used in the boudoir. When they arrived at school, they still called each other’s names. Now she was being called as such by Jing Xiaolu, Chen Mengyan thought of the matters in the house, so she said, “In the future, just call my name. Don’t call me Sister. We are all classmates, so it is a bit uncomfortable to hear that.”
“Okay, I will call you Mengyan. Can I?” Jing Xiaolu actually knew that Lin Zhiyun privately addressed Chen Mengyan as Sister Mengyan, because when Lin Zhiyun called Chen Mengyan in the dorm, and Jing Xiaolu noticed at the side.
However, now that Chen Mengyan did not let Jing Xiaolu call her like this, Jing Xiaolu could also understand why Lin Zhiyun called Chen Mengyan as Sister Mengyan because Lin Zhiyun and Chen Mengyan were both Yang Ming’s women. This was a secret type of address used in the harem when they were together. Jing Xiaolu was now only an outsider, so when she called Chen Mengyan like that, Chen Mengyan would naturally feel uncomfortable.
“Of course.” Chen Mengyan readily accepted.
Jing Xiaolu initially deliberately came to approach Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, and Lin Zhiyun. Whatever topic they talked about, Jing Xiaolu naturally followed along. After a few months of corporate white-collar life, Jing Xiaolu had matured a lot and also understood the tricks of communication between many people. Therefore, under the deliberate engagement of Jing Xiaolu, Chen Mengyan also accepted Jing Xiaolu as a friend.
However, Jing Xiaolu knew very well that Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, and Lin Zhiyun just regarded her as an ordinary friend. It was absolutely impossible to integrate her into their circles. It was only possible if Yang Ming pushed her down on the bed.
So, after swapping each person’s phone number, Jing Xiaolu decided to contact them more often during her free time. Jing Xiaolu did not expect to be able to integrate into their circles at once, but just leave a good impression with them.
Now Jing Xiaolu had also laid down her impetuous heart from the past. She carefully noticed the women Yang Ming liked; although beauty was certain, each had her own characteristics, and each had her own strengths.
If Jing Xiaolu wanted to have a place in Yang Ming’s heart, she could only put effort into herself. Initially, the image of the non-mainstream delinquent girl gave Yang Ming a bad impression, so Jing Xiaolu tried to change her image and constantly enrich herself.
It was true that Jing Xiaolu was a little clever, and she could confidently say that she could give Yang Ming some ideas, but this kind of good-for-nothing adviser did not seem to be very glorious. Therefore, after Jing Xiaolu entered the company, she began to study hard about the knowledge of management and public relations. After she had a certain ability, she would not be afraid that Yang Ming would not pay attention to her.
Zhao Ying and Wang Xiaoyan also met in the third cafeteria of the school.
“Yanyan… Chen Mengyan is over there…” Zhao Ying saw Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, Lin Zhiyun, and a girl she didn’t know.
However, Zhao Ying did not know whether she should go over and say hello. If it were only Chen Mengyan, Zhao Ying wouldn’t mind going over, but now, two of Yang Ming’s other women, Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia, were there. Zhao Ying did not know if it was appropriate to go over.
“I saw them.” Wang Xiaoyan actually discovered Chen Mengyan and others earlier. With her eyesight, she saw the three of them as soon as she entered the cafeteria.
“Then, should we go over and say hello?” Zhao Ying was somewhat in fear and trepidation. When she saw Chen Mengyan, she was a little nervous and felt that she did something wrong to her.
However, they met in the cafeteria this time, it didn’t seem to be very good if she didn’t greet them. So Zhao Ying planned to get up and say hello to Chen Mengyan.
“Sister Ying! Chen Mengyan was your student! Why do you have to go over and say hello?” Wang Xiaoyan pulled Zhao Ying’s hand and stopped her. “To say hello, she should come to say hello to you! Sister Ying, don’t put the cart before the horse 1 [2]!”
“But… she is Yang Ming’s…” Zhao Ying said halfway and didn’t continue, but the meaning of her words was already very clear. Chen Mengyan was the official girlfriend of Yang Ming, also known as the first wife. Wang Xiaoyan most probably understood that too.
“What about that?!” Wang Xiaoyan’s lips twitched and she was somewhat disdainful. “You know, the person Yang Ming originally liked was you. If you weren’t so maudlin, Chen Mengyan would have nothing now!”
“You can’t say that. Yang Ming first liked Chen Mengyan…” Zhao Ying knew that Wang Xiaoyan’s character was like this, so she didn’t care.
“What about it? Yang Ming confessed to you first.” Wang Xiaoyan said, “Sister Ying, I think you should be the Yang Ming’s first wife. Anyway, I support you.”
“That is inappropriate…” Zhao Ying was somewhat embarrassed by Wang Xiaoyan’s words. She was not an ambitious and aggressive person, but she remembered that Chen Mengyan scolded her as an enchantress in the beginning. Zhao Ying became somewhat timid.
“There is nothing inappropriate.” Wang Xiaoyan did not agree. “I can’t stand Chen Mengyan’s behavior anyway.”
After listening to Wang Xiaoyan’s words, Zhao Ying could only smile bitterly.
However, when Chen Mengyan had eaten and was about to leave, she saw Zhao Ying and Wang Xiaoyan. As for this neighbor, Wang Xiaoyan, Chen Mengyan had seen her several times. Although she had never said anything, she was familiar.
In Chen Mengyan’s impression, she had always regarded Wang Xiaoyan as the crush of her junior high school’s tablemate, so she never thought that Wang Xiaoyan would have a relationship with Yang Ming.
“Sister Ying, Wang Xiaoyan, you are here too!” After Chen Mengyan and Zhao Ying resolved their misunderstanding, the relationship between the two was also restored to the sister relationship from before, so Chen Mengyan seemed very enthusiastic.
“Mengyan, have you finished eating?” Zhao Ying also smiled, nodded, and asked, “Let’s sit down and eat together?”
Although Zhao Ying knew that Chen Mengyan had finished eating, she could only pretend that she didn’t notice it at this moment. Otherwise, when Chen Mengyan asked why she hadn’t come and say hello, it would be hard for Zhao Ying to explain it.
“We have finished eating; you can eat.” Chen Mengyan said, “Sister Ying, then I will go first. There are classes in the afternoon.”
” En , see you later.” Zhao Ying smiled and waved.
After Chen Mengyan left, Zhao Ying sighed subconsciously. Wang Xiaoyan was shaking her head. “Sister Ying, why are you so weak? Ai , if you’re like this, always so overcautious, when can you get happiness?!”
“Yanyan, you don’t understand… between you and Chen Mengyan, it’s not the same as my relationship with her.” Zhao Ying shook her head. “I used to be her and Yang Ming’s teacher. Think about it. I fight with my student over a man. How bad does it sound when the news spreads?!”
“You…” Wang Xiaoyan really didn’t know what to say to Zhao Ying. She pointed to Zhao Ying, and after being angry for a long time, she finally said, “Forget it. I’m not going to care about you. I also can’t meddle with it. You always have a variety of reasons.”
“Yanyan, I know that you are also looking out for me…” Zhao Ying saw that Wang Xiaoyan really was thinking for her. However, Wang Xiaoyan’s personality was different from her own style. Zhao Ying could not ignore Chen Mengyan’s thoughts. “But my situation is really complicated. These matters are up to our fate.”
“Since you have said this, then I have nothing else to say.” Wang Xiaoyan said reluctantly, “But you have to work hard!”
” En .” Zhao Ying’s face was a little red. She nodded.
Tian Donghua had not finished eating, and he left in a hurry. When Xu Peng came to the private room with the waiter serving the food, he saw that only Yang Ming was left, and he was astonished.
