Chapter 38 First meeting
Chapter 38 First meeting
Xu Lingfeng watched Ouyang Mengmian and the young man walking towards him step by step, and his heart sank a little bit.
Why was Ouyang Mengmian so close to that man? What was their relationship? He hadn't seen her for just two or three months, so why was there suddenly such an annoying man by her side?
Although Xu Lingfeng had his doubts and felt that the relationship between Ouyang Mengmian and the young man was not simple, he was still unwilling to think about it. He still had a fluke and secretly hoped in his heart that the two were just ordinary friends of the opposite sex.
But his straightened body and his quietly clenched hands had already revealed his inner tension.
Ouyang Mengmian and the young man came to Xu Lingfeng, talking and laughing.
Xu Lingfeng had already stood up unconsciously, his eyes fixed on Ouyang Mengmian, as if he wanted to find evidence on her face that she had a superficial relationship with the young man. His face, which had been full of smiles before the young man appeared, was now completely devoid of smiles.
Ouyang Mengmian met Xu Lingfeng's gaze and smiled at him. Before Xu Lingfeng could react, a shy look quickly covered her face and she looked at the young man beside her.
Seeing Ouyang Mengmian's face showing the look of a young girl who had never shown it in front of him, Xu Lingfeng's heart sank to the bottom. He looked at Ouyang Mengmian with a pale face, and a bitter taste in his mouth.
Even when the young man greeted him, Xu Lingfeng didn't hear it.
It was not until Ouyang Mengmian reached out and pulled his arm that Xu Lingfeng finally came to his senses.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Lingfeng opened his mouth in a hoarse voice, and his mouth uttered words with difficulty, as if it had been glued with the strongest glue.
Ouyang Mengmian was dissatisfied with Xu Lingfeng's neglect of Li Xin. She looked at Xu Lingfeng with a slightly reproachful look and said coquettishly, "What? Li Xin just greeted you and you ignored her!"
Xu Lingfeng never thought that Ouyang Mengmian would blame him for a strange man one day. Xu Lingfeng felt a wave of pain in his heart, and felt that everything in front of him was just a nightmare that looked extremely real. There must be something wrong, and he should not be here.
Li Xin had long known from Ouyang Mengmian that she had a childhood sweetheart. This time, Ouyang Mengmian brought him to meet this good friend with whom she had a close relationship since childhood.
Ouyang Mengmian and Li Xin said that this was a warm-up before meeting the parents.
Li Xin attached great importance to this meeting and even bought a set of expensive clothes specially for it.
Ouyang Mengmian was extremely beautiful, and Li Xin was still guessing what her childhood sweetheart looked like. It was not until she saw the real person that Li Xin realized that her imagination was not even one ten-thousandth of the real person.
Xu Lingfeng had a handsome appearance. He just stood there without saying a word, but he exuded the aura of a well-educated family. Although his clothes were not eye-catching, every detail was just right, which set off his extraordinary aura.
Compared with Xu Lingfeng, Li Xin felt that the clothes he had spent a lot of money and carefully selected were as cheap as street stall goods.
The moment he saw Xu Lingfeng, Li Xin suddenly felt ashamed from the bottom of his heart.
With such an outstanding childhood sweetheart, Ouyang Mengmian must not be too bad. No wonder although Ouyang Mengmian always tried her best to show her ordinary in front of him, Lin Xin could still sense that Ouyang Mengmian was different.
Li Xin suppressed the bitterness in his heart and tried his best to introduce himself to Xu Lingfeng generously: "Hello, I'm Li Xin, a very good friend of Mengmian."
What Li Xin didn't expect was that Xu Lingfeng on the other side didn't even look at him, and even ignored his introduction. Li Xin, who was already a little lacking in confidence, immediately froze.
Ouyang Mengmian complained to Xu Lingfeng on his behalf, which made him feel a little better.
Frankly speaking, in Li Xin's opinion, Ouyang Mengmian and Xu Lingfeng standing together look more like a perfect match made in heaven.
Perhaps it was out of a man's intuition, he always felt that the way Xu Lingfeng looked at Ouyang Mengmian was not just as simple as a good friend. The daily life of childhood sweethearts is prone to breed many different emotions.
Before meeting Xu Lingfeng, he did not think much about this childhood sweetheart described by Ouyang Mengmian. After meeting Xu Lingfeng, Ouyang Mengmian chose the mediocre him and ignored such an excellent Xu Lingfeng, which even he himself found a little unbelievable.
Meeting Ouyang Mengmian and being liked by her made Li Xin feel like a gambler with nothing who was suddenly blessed by the god of luck. But what he didn't know was whether the god of luck would always be kind to him.
Xu Lingfeng's excellence made him always feel like an unexpected intruder.
