Chapter 20 Meeting Her Ex-boyfriend Again

Quan Meng sat for quite a while before coming back to her senses. When she felt that she could feel her feet again, she stood up while supporting herself on the bench.

Unfortunately, she fell to the ground the moment she took a step. Her ankle was sprained, and her stockings were torn. Her business suit also became wrinkled and covered in dust while her hair, which she had carefully done up in the morning, was a mess.

When Quan Meng fell down, she attracted the attention of the few people resting in the park.

This was the first time she had been in such a sorry state.

Quan Meng simply sat on the ground and took off the high heels on her feet. She slammed the heels on the ground a few times. When she felt that the heels were loose, she twisted them and the heels dropped off.

Although it was still uncomfortable to wear high heels with missing heels, it was more comfortable than walking with her feet askew.

At this moment, a hand reached out in front of Quan Meng. Quan Meng was just about to grab it when she felt that this hand was extremely familiar. Even the bracelet on his wrist was one that Quan Meng had given as a gift before. The hand came from Liang Ye.

“What are you doing here?” Quan Meng instantly decided to retract her hand and supported herself up. No matter how pathetic she was, she didn’t want to lose her dignity in front of Liang Ye.

“You don’t have to torture yourself like this.” Liang Ye didn’t answer Quan Meng’s question. “I know you want to participate in the Magnifique Prix. If you want to, you can come back to Quan Enterprise.”

Quan Meng couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Liang Ye’s words. “Have you forgotten how I was chased out?”

Quan Meng didn’t know that Liang Ye’s memory was so bad. “Also, in what capacity are you persuading me to go back?” She even laughed when she said that. “I forgot that Young Master Liang is now a shareholder of Quan Enterprise. How is it? Does your fiancee know?”

Back then, the three-day grace period Quan Meng gave Liang Ye was only a few hours away from lapsing. Fortunately, Liang Ye transferred the money into Quan Meng’s account at the last moment, and Quan Meng did as she promised and signed the share transfer agreement.

“Mengmeng, don’t do this…”

“Don’t do what? Don’t rely on my own abilities to look for a job, or don’t talk about your precious baby?” Quan Meng was stupefied.

“Yiyi is also participating in this competition. You know you can’t beat her,” Liang Ye said faintly.

It was true. Since she was a child, Quan Yi had taken away everything Quan Meng liked, be it a small pencil or a boyfriend later on. Quan Yi didn’t like seeing Quan Meng leading a good life, but she didn’t want to make it known to the public. Quan Yi only knew how to deploy some dirty, underhand tricks to sow discord and make everyone favor her.

At that time, Quan Yi chose the jewelry design course, which she knew nothing about. It was only because Quan Meng was extremely talented in this field, and Quan Yi managed to steal a design practice sketch from Quan Meng which she used as her graduation design before she was able to graduate.

Now that she dared to participate in such a high-stakes competition, she must be looking for a way to plagiarize designs.

With that thought in mind, Quan Meng silently took a step back, distancing herself from Liang Ye.

“What do you mean by that? I’m confident that I can beat Quan Yi in terms of design.”

“The Quan family is sponsoring this competition.” Liang Ye’s words caught Quan Meng a little off guard. After all, with the Quan family’s participation, there was definitely the possibility of the competition getting rigged.

“Thank you for telling me this…” Suddenly, Quan Meng’s phone rang. The call was from Huo Ling.

“Where are you?” Huo Ling’s voice came from the other end of the phone. His deep and sonorous voice sounded very suave. Naturally, Liang Ye also heard his voice.

“I’m in the park next to the North Luck Complex. What’s the matter?” Quan Meng’s voice subconsciously became very soft and gentle.

“Who is he?” Liang Ye frowned so deeply his eyebrows almost joined. Quan Meng had just broken up with him less than two months ago. How did she get together with another man so quickly?

“Then I’ll pick you up. I want to taste your cooking again.” Huo Ling said.

“Alright.” A bright smile broke out on Quan Meng’s face. It was a smile that would only appear when she was passionately in love, and it was also the smile that she had once shown Liang Ye.

Huo Ling ended the phone call and was still looking at the two people not far away from the car.

When he saw that Quan Meng had fallen, he wanted to get out of the car to help her. However, he saw Liang Ye just as he stepped out of the car.

After that, the two of them had chatted for too long and he was a little hungry. He was definitely not jealous.

“I’m sorry. Someone’s here to pick me up.”

Quan Meng nodded at Liang Ye and turned to leave. She rejected Liang Ye’s offer to help her up and even warned him not to follow her.

After all, she didn’t want to reveal her trump card so soon.

Quan Meng turned around and saw Huo Ling’s Maybach as soon as she walked to the side of the road.

Huo Ling also knew that Quan Meng’s leg was injured, so he got out of the car quickly to receive her.

Under the light, Liang Ye couldn’t see the person’s face clearly, but he could vaguely see that he was very tall and had a good figure.

As he watched the two of them leave together, with Quan Meng leaning in that person’s arms, Liang Ye felt very uncomfortable.
