117 Breaking Through the Heavens!
Looking at the two of them, Dong Honghe sighed. Among their childhood friends, Chen Yun and Lin Yuhan had the best relationship. They had to step back.
“Alright, stop being emotional. Let’s go eat.” Fang Mengjun pulled Chen Yun’s arm when no one was paying attention.
Chen Yun was speechless.
Oh? Was she taking advantage of him?
However, Chen Yun only smiled and allowed Fang Mengjun to pull him along. They had grown up in the same courtyard since they were young. They were not family, but were like family.
After getting into the Ford, Dong Honghe and Lin Yuhan sat in front while Chen Yun sat at the back with the two girls.
At this moment, Zhang Huaiyao leaned closer to Chen Yun’s face and blinked her big eyes.
Dong Honghe looked at this scene through the rearview mirror and immediately smiled. “Beauty Huaiyao, why? Is there a flower on my brother’s face? That’s my opinion.”
“Why didn’t I notice it in the past? In my impression, Chen Yun has always been short, dark, and inconspicuous. Why do I instantly feel like I don’t know him? He’s so handsome that I’m a little infatuated.”
Chen Yun pursed his lips and felt helpless. He had indeed been short and dark since he was young, but he had been doing well since junior high.
First impressions really killed people.
Fang Mengjun also took out her phone and took a selfie with Chen Yun and the other two.
“It’s been a long time since we took a photo together. We’ll definitely take a good photo when we get out of the car later.” Fang Mengjun looked over and thought for a moment. “However, Wang Liang didn’t come back this time. It seems like he won’t be able to freeload on this gathering.”
“Come on, Wang Liang hasn’t been worried about food recently.” Zhang Huaiyao covered her mouth. “He even posted on his Moments a few days ago. I don’t know why he suddenly became so lucky. I heard that he won a meal worth up to 20,000 yuan at the First-Grade Restaurant, a high-end restaurant in Jiang City. Then, he won another prize while eating and obtained a membership card with 300,000 yuan on it.”
“An amount of 300,000 yuan is enough for him to eat for many years. A few days ago, I saw the photos he posted. He’s gained a lot of weight.” Zhang Huaiyao said with a jealous expression. Why wasn’t she pretty enough to have such benefits?
“Huh?”
Fang Mengjun was stunned. “Is there such a thing? In that case, the next time we go to Jiang City, let him treat us to a meal.”
“There’s no need. I’ll treat you guys the next time we come to Jiang City.” Chen Yun smiled and said, “When we reach Jiang City, I’ll do my best as a host.”
“Then let’s make a deal.” Fang Mengjun smiled. “When we reach Jiang City, you’ll be the host. I’ll be the host today. It’s not easy for us to get together.”
“Heh.”
Dong Honghe chuckled. “Beauty Fang, the three of us are here. How can we ask a girl like you to pay? What are you thinking? I have to pay for this meal.”
“Hey, I’m saving you money!”
“No need. I have money!” Dong Honghe joked with Fang Mengjun, but he did not see the loneliness in Lin Yuhan’s eyes.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the restaurant was not big, but the taste was not bad.
This was also the place where they often came together in the past.
Although their ages had changed, their friendship had never changed.
After the meal.
Lin Yuhan patted Chen Yun’s shoulder. “Brother, let’s go out and smoke.”
“Okay.”
Chen Yun responded silently.
The two of them left the private room and went to the corridor.
Lin Yuhan leaned against the railing with a cigarette in his mouth. He looked at the crowd on the street below and felt lost.
“What’s wrong? What’s on your mind? By the way, I didn’t know that after you retired from the army, you actually went to Jiang City. Why didn’t you come and play with me?” Chen Yun stood side by side with Lin Yuhan and looked down.
Hearing Chen Yun’s words, Lin Yuhan immediately smiled bitterly. “Originally, my father had expanded his business to Jiang City. I also wanted to take this opportunity to develop in Jiang City and seek a future for myself.”
“I was recommended by someone else and indeed blended into the circle of young masters. I even met Young Master Tan Zekun.” Lin Yuhan smoked a cigarette and sighed. “However, he knew that I was a retired soldier and asked me to enter the octagon cage. He broke my arm.”
“When he swung the rod at me, I wanted to dodge, but I didn’t dare.” Lin Yuhan’s eyes turned red. “I was afraid that if I dodged, not only would I be finished, but my father would also be implicated.”
“Brother, there are some things I can’t tell them. I can only tell you,” said Lin Yuhan in a low voice.
Chen Yun listened from the side and did not interrupt. He knew that Lin Yuhan just wanted to find an listening ear.
As expected, Lin Yuhan continued, “This incident has woken me up. After all, I’m not on the same level as those young masters. They’ve never treated me as a human. I want to be an honest person. If I continue to hang out like this, the gap between me and you will only increase.”
Seeing that Chen Yun seemed to be about to open his mouth, he quickly said, “Don’t refute me.”
“Both you and Wang Liang are good at studying and are very capable. In the future, you’re destined to surpass the previous generation and rise rapidly in the big city.”
“The strength of Honghe’s family is obvious. We all know their background.”
“It’s just me.”
“My father was cheated while doing business in Jiang City. Something happened to our family too. I don’t know what to do now.”
“I want to rely on myself to carve out a path. F*ck, one day, I’ll stand in front of that bastard Tan Zekun and break his limbs! I’ll tell him who he is!”
As he spoke, he flicked the cigarette butt to the ground and stomped on it, as if he wanted to vent all the depression in his heart.
At this moment, Chen Yun said slowly, “I’ve already crippled Tan Zekun. If you’re not satisfied…”
Lin Yuhan did not believe him. He lowered his head and smiled. “Brother, I feel much better after hearing your words.”
In his opinion, Chen Yun was just saying things in a fit of anger. What kind of status did Tan Zekun have? He was the young master of the Tan family in Jiang City. Usually, when he went out, he would have the status of someone who made others change from arrogance to deference.
If Chen Yun crippled him, how could he still be standing here? He probably could not even leave Jiang City.
“What happened at home? Do you need my help?” Although Chen Yun knew Lin Yuhan’s stubborn personality, he still asked.
As he had expected, Lin Yuhan shook his head. After chatting with Chen Yun for a while, they went in.
After a while, everyone finished eating. Chen Yun used the excuse of going to the toilet to secretly pay the bill. However, in the end, everyone rolled their eyes at him.
“Let’s go. I’ll send you home,” said Dong Honghe. However, Fang Mengjun and Zhang Huaiyao shook their heads. “We have something to talk to Chen Yun about. We have to take a walk.”
“What’s the matter? Why are you so mysterious?” Dong Honghe raised his eyebrows.
However, Fang Mengjun glared at him. Dong Honghe suddenly understood and pulled Lin Yuhan back. “Then, we’ll leave first.”
After the two of them left, Chen Yun looked at the two girls. “What’s wrong?”
The next moment, Fang Mengjun sighed and the smile on her face disappeared.
Then, she took out a bank card from his pocket.
She handed it to Chen Yun.
