Chapter 316
Just when Gu Jia was thinking about how to communicate with Wang Manni, a prompt came from outside the door again:
"Welcome, Ms. Zhong."

Then I heard Zhong Xiaoqin's bluffing voice: "Come east, here I come."

When I walked in, I saw that Wang Manni and Gu Jia were both there.

"You guys came so early." The tone was a bit awkward, and I thought I was the first to come.

"It's not too early for you." Wang Manni teased.

The three of them made an appointment to eat together at noon, and then chat and watch a movie in the afternoon. If there is enough time, they will go shopping.

But they all arrived a few hours earlier, and it was just past nine o'clock in the morning.

"Hehe, being idle at home is also idle." Zhong Xiaoqin said with a smile.

"Xiaoqin, do your parents know?" Gu Jia asked.

"I know, I asked about my new car when I got home yesterday, and I confessed." Zhong Xiaoqin replied.

"Didn't you say anything?" Gu Jia was surprised by her calmness.

"How is it possible? I was trained all night, and Chen Yu was called over this morning. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I ran away." Zhong Xiaoqin replied.

It seems that this is the real reason for her early arrival.

"You ran out like that?" Gu Jia asked.

"Otherwise, you don't know what's going on with Chen Yu recently, but you're trying to curry favor with my parents." Zhong Xiaoqin walked to the fruit plate that Wang Manni was making, picked up a toothpick and started eating.

"What else can I do? I want to remarry." Wang Manni replied.

"I don't want it, the days are so beautiful now, you can be free, you can buy whatever you want."

"You still have money?" Wang Manni was puzzled. According to Meng Donglai, didn't all the money she got from Chen Yu go to Meng Donglai?
"I have a credit card." Zhong Xiaoqin replied.

"No, I remember that you don't have a credit card, and you have been using Chen Yu's sub-card before." Gu Jia interjected.

"Really?" Zhong Xiaoqin took out the credit card in her bag, and looked at the back, and there was a "chen yu" mark, indicating that it was Chen Yu's credit card.

"You still use his card to buy things like this after a divorce. He didn't say anything?" Wang Manni stretched her neck to look and saw the sign.

"Nothing."

"That's true love." Wang Manni sighed, and glanced at Meng Donglai when she spoke. Her words were a standard setback for Meng Donglai.

She had indeed promised Meng Donglai not to make trouble, but when things came to an end, she just couldn't help it, and words of trouble came out of her mouth.

But it's a pity that she didn't see that Meng Donglai was angry, and his expression was smiling and relaxed as always.

"What, a good horse doesn't turn back." Zhong Xiaoqin retorted, but soon realized that this sentence was wrong: "Manny, I didn't mention you, it doesn't count if you two didn't separate."

"Oh." Wang Manni replied in embarrassment.

Gu Jia next to him watched this scene, and the alarm bells rang frantically in his mind.

That's it!
I knew this would happen!
Because of a man, the sisters first started with small conflicts, and then developed into enemies.

At this moment, Gu Jia felt that a heavy burden was suddenly placed on her shoulders, and she wanted to prevent this from happening.

Ding!
With a crisp sound, Meng Donglai, who was packing vegetables, walked to the oven.

I looked at the cake inside through the glass and it was exactly as expected.

Wear gloves and turn on the oven.

Hot air rushed out, followed by a strong fragrance, which filled the whole room in an instant.

"Wow, what did you make delicious, so fragrant?" Zhong Xiaoqin looked over looking for the scent, just in time to see Meng Donglai bringing the cake out of the oven.

"It's cake!"

"Yes."

This cake is not covered with chocolate or decorated, it looks very ordinary.

It’s just that cocoa powder was added to the dough, which makes the current cake embryo appear brown.

"It smells so good, I didn't expect you to have this skill." Zhong Xiaoqin sighed.

"Gu Jia taught me this." Meng Dong replied and started adding chocolate to the cake.

Melt the dark chocolate first.

Zhong Xiaoqin walked to the side to watch, watching the large piece of chocolate melted, she couldn't help pursing her lips.

"Who did you do this for?"

"I made it for you, this is today's dessert." Meng Dong said back and forth.

While talking, the movements of his hands did not stop. He quickly poured the melted dark chocolate onto the cake base, and then smoothed it out with a spatula.

Soon, a black, round chocolate cake was made.

Bare and somewhat ugly.

But because all the top ingredients are used, the taste is very good.

Then, Meng Donglai started to use piping bags to fill other colors of cream and began to paint on the cake.

Soon, three cartoon little girls appeared on Cake Mountain, they looked like Gu Jia, Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin, very cute.

"Come and see, you two, Donglai is so powerful that he can paint with cream."

Gu Jia and Wang Manni came over and saw that on the surface of the small cake, a person's image could be outlined with a few strokes, and they could still achieve a similarity, which is really a miracle.

"This really doesn't give ordinary people like us a way out." Wang Manni sighed.

"I didn't expect you to be able to draw." Gu Jia's eyes also changed when she saw Meng Donglai.

Despite these few strokes, to achieve this level, one must have very profound painting skills.

"When I'm free someday, I'll draw a portrait oil painting for you." Faced with the compliments from the three women, Meng Donglai acted very casually.

"Is it Leng Jun's hyper-realistic portrait?" Gu Jia asked.

Among the three girls, Gu Jia's artistry can be said to be the highest. This can be regarded as a plug-in given to her by the screenwriter, because it stands to reason that Gu Jia's family cannot cultivate this level of artistic sentiment.

"It's not so realistic, it's another style of portrait." Meng Dong said back and forth: "Super-realism is too time-consuming, I don't have that much time."

It means that he can also draw to that extent.

Gu Jia also heard this meaning: "Then let us look forward to your artistic results."

"Do you need us to be models?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked.

"Being a model is naturally the best. If you don't have time, you can also give me a high-definition photo." Meng Donglai finished the cake and started making lunch.

A few simple dishes are prepared quickly, and the main course is fried steak.

The four sat down at the dining table one after another, and an exquisite lunch began.

The plate arrangement in charge of Gu Jia brought the various tableware in Meng Donglai's house to the extreme. Wang Manni made two large fruit plates and placed them at both ends of the plate.Zhong Xiaoqin is responsible for pouring wine for everyone.

"Thank you, Chef Meng!" Gu Jia raised her wine glass as a signal, and everyone followed suit.

"Thank you." Meng Donglai, who was surrounded by three beauties, felt delighted.

Talking and laughing while eating, the atmosphere at the dinner table was very good. Meng Donglai fully showed his humor and made the three girls laugh non-stop.

Ever since the explosion at Shen Jie's fireworks factory, Gu Jia has been feeling depressed, but now she finally relaxed a little.

"Gu Gu, what have you been up to lately? I haven't seen you much." Zhong Xiaoqin asked.

"Is that what the wife talks about?" Gu Jia briefly talked about the explosion at Shen Jie's factory.

"Shen Jie's wife just ran away like that?" Meng Donglai asked.

He really couldn't stand this part of the play.

Rationally speaking, Shen Jie's arrangement and his wife Xiaorui's escape can be said to be the most correct choice.

But emotionally it's not like that.

And in the long run, whether Xiao Rui's running is the best solution is also a question mark.

"She doesn't understand anything, so she can only follow Shen Jie's previous arrangement." Gu Jia replied.

This kind of couple is originally a bird in the same forest, and the bridge where they fly separately when the disaster is imminent is personally difficult to accept.

"How is Shen Jie doing? Have you received forgiveness from the families of the victims?" Meng Donglai asked.

Yes, Shen Jie can give a lighter sentence.

"Still fighting, those family members want a lot, and the house of Shen Jie's family is sold." Gu Jia replied.

That's it. If Xiao Rui was still there, he would probably be able to get the letter of understanding faster if he dug into his pocket again.

However, with a few million in exchange for a few years of imprisonment, how to calculate this account, it is estimated that everyone's account book will be different.

Moreover, Shen Jie and the families of the victims are in a tug-of-war situation. Maybe they disagree with the current price. After a while, they feel that there is no hope of getting a higher price, so they will be at ease.

This requires a good lawyer.

"Do you need help? I know a good criminal lawyer, and I can help financially." Meng Donglai asked.

"Thank you, but no need. I've already found a lawyer here. It should be about the same." Gu Jia did not agree.

Meng Donglai and Shen Jie didn't know each other, so if they helped, the favor would only fall on her, Gu Jia.

Shen Jie is indeed Xu Huanshan's good friend. When his family's company was in trouble, he would help him in a timely manner. But in this situation, it is enough for him to do his best. It would not be worthwhile to get all kinds of favors from the outside.

The fact that other people's wives have run away means that they have already made preparations and just try their best.

"When I saw you a few days ago, I saw something wrong with your mentality. Is it because of the incident at Shen Jie's factory that you thought of yourself?" Wang Manni asked after listening for a while.

"How could it be impossible not to think about it, so during this period of time, I was thinking about whether I could get some other resources from the wife circle. It's too dangerous to put all my wealth and life on the fireworks factory." Gu Jia replied.

"Since it's so dangerous, why don't you do it?" Zhong Xiaoqin's words were purely because her back hurts while standing and talking.

"How is it possible? The family expenses are so huge, the monthly mortgage, children's tuition, and the expenses of the whole family. Without the fireworks factory, the wages of working for others can't even pay off the mortgage." Gu Jia smiled a little lonely.

Don't look at her living in the Grand Hyatt Mansion now, as if she has stepped into the wealthy class, but in fact her life is tight.

I bought limited-edition bags before, but now I open a dessert shop. It’s basically a chicken butt, which stretches the capital chain to the extreme.

"It turns out that even if you are so rich, you will also worry about money. I thought only moonlight people like me would worry about money." Wang Manni sighed.

Before she agreed to Meng Dong's arrival, she was the only one among the three who belonged to the Moonlight clan. She had to pay off her credit card every month after receiving her salary.

When the three of them were together before, Wang Manni actually had a bit of low self-esteem, but she just covered it up very well.

But now it's different, she can be regarded as financial freedom in disguise.

"Looking at what you said, I feel that my life is too ordinary." Zhong Xiaoqin also sighed.

"Isn't it bad to be plain? I don't have this kind of life like you yet." Wang Manni choked back when she heard Zhong Xiaoqin said Versailles: "You don't know how happy you are. You can still use your ex-husband's credit card after divorce. It’s really being held in the palm of my hand.”

Gu Jia next to him frowned and came again.

"I didn't know before. From now on, I will not use his card anymore, and I will return the card to him tomorrow." Zhong Xiaoqin promised angrily.

"To put it lightly, all the money you got from the divorce was given to Donglai. Can the money you have now support your recent shopping spree?" Wang Manni asked.

Zhong Xiaoqin frowned, she had been too indulgent recently.

However, it is really cool to be able to buy things casually.

"If I don't buy it, I will live well if I don't buy it before the divorce." Zhong Xiaoqin insisted.

How did she know that once the shopping habit is formed, it is so easy to quit.

"You don't have to change it. I'll transfer the money for the car to you. The man said it was a gift, so how could he take your money?" Meng Donglai interjected, he couldn't let Zhong Xiaoqin become mature all of a sudden. , must continue to be able to build, otherwise how to complete the second task?

"What are you talking about?" Gu Jia was at a loss to hear it.

"Gu Gu, let me tell you, Donglai sent a car to each of us." Zhong Xiaoqin excitedly told Gu Jia what had happened in the past few days. Gu Jia frowned and looked at Meng Dong. Come here, it's like looking at a heinous scumbag.

She is not Zhong Xiaoqin, she can easily see Meng Donglai's sinister intentions.

Then I looked at Wang Manni again, and seeing her drinking fruit wine with a calm face, I knew that this woman must be able to see it, but I don't know why they still got mixed up.

Could it be that the previous incident involving Liang Zhengxian was too hard and distorted it?
"Xiaoqin, there has never been a free lunch in the world." Gu Jia couldn't help interrupting Zhong Xiaoqin's chatter.

"Really? Then why do you think that you can get high returns with small efforts in the wife circle?" Meng Donglai asked back.

Who can climb to the wealthy class, which one is simple?

It is not utilitarian and unrealistic, and has long been eaten during the climbing process.

And those rich wives are only more realistic than successful men.

Whoever has money, who has ostentation and who can bring them benefits, they will get close to whoever.

Obviously, Gu Jia is the weakest among them, and naturally the one who is most easily bullied.

In the later stage of the TV series, as Gu Jia approached the C position step by step, people who looked down on Gu Jia would of course start to plot against her, after all, women?Fighting, jealous, how can you allow you to ride on her head so easily?
Mrs. Li, the C-position in the circle of wives, naturally took charge of the plot to trick Gu Jia.

In fact, anyone with some sense would not get involved so easily. With Gu Jia's previous IQ, she would definitely be able to see that there was something wrong with her. However, she was frightened by Shen Jie's tragic experience and became eager for quick success and instant gain. Naturally, she did not consider the problem comprehensively. .

Mrs. Li accidentally mentioned that she had a tea factory in her family and wanted to resell it.

In Gu Jia's opinion, how could someone as rich as Mrs. Li plot against her?
But Gu Jia forgot that no matter how rich someone is, if the tea factory can really make a lot of money, why should they let you take advantage?

No matter how rich people are, they don't think they have too much money. This is a very simple truth.

Mrs. Li wanted to transfer the tea factory. Obviously, this tea factory was a hot potato. She would only want to sell it if it was a little troublesome. If it was a high-quality asset, a fool would let it go.

Moreover, if Mrs. Li's tea factory can really make a lot of money, it is estimated that someone in the wife circle has already picked it up. How can it be the turn of a newcomer, Gu Jia?
