“Did I say something wrong?” Mengyu deliberately showed an innocent expression: “But that’s what Dongxing told me.”
“Did Brother Dong really tell you that?” she asked with some doubt.
Mengyu mockingly snorted with shallowness, “I don’t even know you. Dongxing told me, how would I know anything else? I can’t possibly be so bored as to intentionally inquire about you, right?
Moreover, does everyone know about your situation? Could I just ask around and get it right?”
Ye Rushui looked at Mengyu and thought to herself: Not bad, she came from Beijing, but this cheap servant girl is clearly from the local countryside. The difference between them is more than just slight.
Maybe, she is the fiancée arranged by Brother Dong’s rural mother. How could she have found out about her situation?
“What else did Brother Dong tell you?” she couldn’t help but probe.
Seeing her take the bait, a hint of mockery flashed in Mengyu’s eyes, but she quickly hid it, so quickly that Ye Rushui didn’t notice at all.
“You want to ask what Dongxing said about you, right? Dongxing said—” Mengyu paused on purpose here, glance at her water glass.
Ye Rushui glanced at it, and had no choice but to pick up the thermos to refill her water.
Mengyu took a sip from the water glass, as if she was savoring fine wine: “Ah, the water poured by Aunt Ye is really tasty.”
Ye Rushui almost cursed out loud.
She suppressed her anger and reminded herself internally: She’s a bumpkin; ignore her. She didn’t even bother to correct her for calling her Auntie.
She really wanted to know how she appeared in Brother Dong’s eyes. Otherwise, she would definitely not talk more with this bumpkin.
She couldn’t wait to ask: “Can you tell me now, what did Brother Dong say about me?”
If it were in front of someone else, she would definitely have to act elegant and intellectual, but with this bumpkin, there was no need.
“Aunt Ye, I have a question I want to ask you.”
“Don’t call me Auntie! Either call me Sister or Miss Ye.” She almost snapped, but again suppressed it quickly, “What do you want to ask? Just say it.”
“In our village, a girlfriend and fiancée are the same person. If a guy has both a girlfriend and a fiancée, both the girlfriend and fiancée will control him, and he wouldn’t be allowed to have another girlfriend or fiancée.
But why in the city, a girlfriend and fiancée are not the same person, and a man can have a girlfriend and also a fiancée?
Then, when this man gets married, does he marry his fiancée or his girlfriend?
Dongxing said he’s going to marry me, and this marriage was arranged by my own mom, and one should not defy parental orders. So after I marry Dongxing, what will happen to you, his girlfriend?”
Mengyu said this, seemingly genuinely worried for Ye Rushui.
Ye Rushui was speechless.
Facing Mengyu’s clear eyes, she felt a frission of panic.
Could she say that in this respect, the city is just like the countryside, a girlfriend and fiancée are the same person?
Could she say that she actually isn’t Gu Dongxing’s girlfriend, so actually there is no way for her to control whether Gu Dongxing has another fiancée?
Unfortunately, she didn’t know that Mengyu, the fiancée, was also a mistake. Hence, it felt quite awkward.
However, hearing Mengyu mention that their marriage was arranged by their parents, her eyes immediately lit up again.
“So, you and Brother Dong, you’re arranged by your parents? Is it an arranged marriage?”
