Zhu Mengtong pursed her lips in a slight smile, with a hint of teasing, she said meaningfully, "It seems that Miss Su and I are quite in sync, thinking about the same thing... Miss Su, donāt you think?"
Su Jiamengās forehead was covered with black lines, feeling that Zhu Mengtongās style seemed a bit off. Just moments ago she was cool and domineering, scaring away the woman coveting her man, and now sheās playfully teasing her with the air of a mischievous girl?
Speaking of which, does your husband at home know youāre this fierce outside? Su Jiameng stepped aside, gesturing for Zhu Mengtong to sit, and calmly said, "Since itās said to be fate, why not sit down and have a good talk? Iāve always heard of your name but never seen you in person, now itās finally accomplished."
Zhu Mengtong didnāt refuse, looking at Su Jiameng with a scrutinizing and evaluating gaze.
How to put it, ever since Zhu Mengtong learned about the existence of Su Jiameng, she has always presented herself in a very mysterious way. Sheās arrogant in action but indeed has the capital for arrogance, drawing resentment masterfully, making people grit their teeth yet unable to really dislike her...
If she were a bit older, it wouldnāt seem too abrupt, at most one could say this person is truly a prodigy. But... sheās only sixteen this year! Of course, if even the age information is fabricated, Zhu Mengtong would have nothing more to say.
"Mrs. Liu..." Su Jiameng pondered over the address, feeling quite displeased about the scrutiny from the other, "I wonder if I did something wrong to make Madam look at me this way? If we have any conflict, it should only be that misunderstanding..."
"As you said, itās a misunderstanding, how could I let a misunderstanding weigh on my mind?" Zhu Mengtong became interested, with a slight smile on her lips, she said thoughtfully, "You donāt quite seem like a sixteen-year-old, whether in behavior or speech..."
By rights, Zhu Mengtong and Su Jiameng should have a twenty-year age gap, which should account for a significant generational gap. But when Zhu Mengtong spoke with her, she found it didnāt feel like an elder talking to a teenager, more like peers conversing.
"Some people... are just more mature for their age." Su Jiameng pointed to herself, speaking boldly, "Even though Iām just this young, Iām already a mother of two babies. If I still had a childish mindset, wouldnāt I be holding back my kids?"
Parents are a childās first teachers in life, teaching them how to speak, protecting them as they learn to walk, telling them how to be a person... It seems simple, but itās a heavy responsibility. If parents havenāt learned to be mature, how can they guide their children?
Zhu Mengtong understood Su Jiamengās point, realizing the other didnāt intentionally strike her sensitivity, but still, the topic of children always pricked her heart a bit. She quickly adjusted her mindset, smiling knowingly, "What you say makes sense, perhaps being a mother makes one more mature and strong than before..."
Su Yanjing, a teenage boy squeezed between an older and a younger woman, suddenly felt utterly superfluous!
He couldnāt help but want to quickly finish his meal and leave, if only! But he resisted the urge to leave... For some reason, he felt that between Su Jiameng and this Simoles Deficiency Syndrome patient, there was a subtle vibe, another layer of meaning beneath their surface words.
Although Zhu Mengtong hadnāt become a mother, when she got married, she had a great anticipation for this role, having researched plenty of relevant theoretical knowledge. In this regard, she was much more knowledgeable than Su Jiameng. Leveraging the topic of children, the two chatted joyfully.
Finally, Su Jiameng shifted the topic to Zhu Mengtongās "Simoles Deficiency Syndrome", frowning puzzledly, "Iāve overheard some of Madamās conversations with Sergeant An before, and thereās something Iām quite baffled about, could you help clarify?"
Su Jiameng knowing An Xiangjiao was something Zhu Mengtong was aware of, so she didnāt find anything unusual when Su mentioned her.
Probably due to womenās intuition, she felt that Su Jiamengās upcoming words would pique her interest, "As long as it doesnāt involve confidential matters, feel free to ask. Meeting each other on the virtual network is a kind of fate too, isnāt it?"
"Hmm, since thatās the case, please pardon my intrusion." Su Jiameng lowered her eyes, she wasnāt overly kind-hearted, she just felt she could use her connection with Zhu Mengtong to inspire high-level research into telekinesis. Even knowing it probably wouldnāt yield progress, she still wanted to try!
"Iāve had an incident before, here..." Su Jiameng pointed to her head, smiling slightly, "I experienced memory loss, canāt recall many things. But if I encounter familiar or related people or objects, it becomes clearer..."
