Chapter 285: Chapter 290: Just Know How to Cause Trouble

They play dirty! Whoever crosses them should just prepare to be cursed for life.

“Uncle, I was in the wrong, I apologize to you.”

“Hurry up and get in the car, if your mom hadn’t asked me to pick you up, do you think I actually have the time?”

“Alright, alright…” Meng Ping took out a wad of cash from his pocket and handed it to the little fat man, “Treat the brothers to lunch, I need to get back.”

“You go back with peace of mind, big bro!” The little fat man was slyly grinning.

“Scram!” Meng Ping feigned a kick at him and picked up his belongings to get into Su Hai’s car.

The two of them didn’t speak the whole way, and upon arriving home, saw that everyone who should and shouldn’t be there was there. Particularly the sight of Hai Lan sitting beside Su Yun made Meng Ping furrow his brows involuntarily.

Meng Ping realized straight away that this was a setup.

“You’re finally back.” Su Yun was the first to come up to welcome him, fussing over Meng Ping, looking him up and down.

“How come you’ve lost weight? Is it because you didn’t have enough money to spend? It’s my fault for not giving you a bit more.”

“Sis, you’re just spoiling him.” Su Hai could not stand it any longer, it was like his sister lost her mind whenever it came to anyone from the Meng Family. “I’ve brought the person back, I’ll leave if there are no other matters.”

“Ah! Aren’t you going to have lunch here?”

“No, I’m not!” If the old man found out he’d gone to the Meng Family for lunch, he’d be furious. Last time, the meal that Sheng Ning made at the Chen Family was indeed delicious, the old man had mentioned it many times, and he really needed to invite him over to cook a meal for the old man one of these days.

After Su Hai left, Su Yun didn’t dwell on it. She continued to fuss over Meng Ping, asking one question after another until he was irritated beyond patience. But the truth was, the money he had used for his trip to Hong Kong was all provided by Su Yun, and she hadn’t skimped, which meant he owed her a favor so he just had to bear with it.

“Meng Ping, you’re really too bold this time, thinking of smuggling yourself to Hong Kong. Do you know if something happened to you, what would I and your dad do?”

Meng Ping’s face turned dark instantly; he thought his smuggling business was a well-kept secret—how did it leak out so fast?

“You said it yourself, when you left, you told me you were just going to see what the economic situation was like in the first special economic zone of the open reform. How did it turn out like this? If something really had happened to you, how could I explain it to your dad?” Su Yun was truly scared; the trip that had been scheduled a week ago to take people to the General Union Song and Dance Troupe for an exchange program had been postponed repeatedly just because she was worried about Meng Ping and wanted to wait until he returned.

“What could have happened? I’m back safe and sound, aren’t I?” Meng Ping grew impatient.

Right after he finished speaking, Meng Xingzhi walked out of the study, startling Meng Ping.

Why was dad at home at this time?

“You little rascal, always causing trouble!” Meng Xingzhi moved to slap Meng Ping as soon as he saw him, but was held back firmly by Su Yun.

“Xingzhi, don’t be angry now, stay calm. He’s already back, hitting him won’t help.”

“Hmph! It’s all because you spoil him.” Meng Xingzhi didn’t want to embarrass Su Yun in front of others and held back.

“You scoundrel! They even called me; do you realize how much trouble you’ve caused?”

Meng Ping’s eyes widened; he thought his movements were undetected.

Next time, he’d have to be more careful.

“Hmph! If it weren’t for me, you really think you’d be okay?” In the end, Meng Xingzhi still doted on his son.

“Thanks, Dad!”
