Chapter 310 Seizing the Crown Prince
"Stop talking nonsense!" Hu Mengdie quickly covered Hu Mengke's mouth.

She was so ashamed that her face turned as red as a persimmon, as if it would bleed if poked even slightly.

"Why are you still shy now? It's not like you don't know that, Onii-chan!"

Hu Mengke struggled to break free from Hu Mengdie's hand and continued to expose the news. Seeing Hu Mengdie being humiliated, she felt very happy.

Hu Mengdie looked at Li Zhuangsheng in shock. Li Zhuangsheng blinked, his face slightly hot, and slowly looked away, pretending to be stupid:

"I, I don't know... I also heard it from Meng Ke... Uh, maybe she was just joking..."

The motive of this matter is questionable. He did not doubt that Hu Mengke was lying, but it was hard to imagine that Hu Mengdie would do this, and she did not lock the door and was caught by Hu Mengke. However, no matter what Hu Mengdie thought at the time, he was the one who was pitted now.

"What I said is true..." Hu Mengke was not convinced.

"Wow...why am I like this? I am too embarrassed to see anyone!"

Hu Mengdie cried out "Ah Wuu" and covered her face with her hands, her fingers red with shame.

"Don't be like this... Mengke is probably just teasing you!" Li Zhuangsheng said soothingly, and at the same time signaled with his eyes that Hu Mengke should stop talking.

Hu Mengke pouted, feeling very proud that she had finally defeated Hu Mengdie again.

I made you control me all day long! I made you bully me all day long! I made you not believe me yesterday!

"Really? I'm too embarrassed to see you again..." Hu Mengdie lay on the table and sobbed.

Li Zhuangsheng didn't know how to comfort others in this situation, so he remained silent, adhering to the principle of keeping a distance.

He glanced at his phone and saw that it was getting late. He then glanced at Hu Mengke and saw that he had almost finished his meal.

"Then you can take her home. Since you are here, I won't send her to Teacher Zhou for tutoring... If you have time, you'd better send me the phone number of Meng Ke's homeroom teacher. I remember she taught me math in the fourth grade."

Having stayed long enough, Li Zhuangsheng stood up and prepared to leave. Given his status and their relationship, he shouldn't have been in contact with Hu Mengdie for too long.

In fact, since Hu Mengke's parents have consciously intervened, he shouldn't worry too much about the subsequent arrangements.

But because of the previous experience and the fact that the future Hu Mengdie was no longer around, Li Zhuangsheng was skeptical about the educational methods of his former father-in-law and mother-in-law... He was a little worried about leaving everything to them.

At least we need to pay attention to it in the future.

"Okay." Hu Mengdie nodded softly.

Li Zhuangsheng glanced at the code book and felt a little uneasy. He was curious about what was written in the book. Maybe there was nothing written in it, and it was just a code set when it was bought... But it was also possible that there was something written in it.

In any case, she probably wouldn't directly write about the two of them being reborn, unless she realized in advance that she would lose her memory... If it was just some vague statements, she could still play dumb.

Who would think of "rebirth" as a fantasy story that only exists in novels? Normal high school students can distinguish between fantasy and reality. Just like some third-rate writers who desperately fantasize about their youth, they know that they can't go back to the past.

Time flies.

I think it's okay.

Li Zhuangsheng patted Hu Mengke's head and encouraged her a few more times. Just as he was about to leave, Hu Mengdie hurriedly stopped him:
"Hey, wait a minute, how much did you spend on treating Meng Ke to KFC?"

"No need to give it to me, Meng Ke is just like my sister."

"Yes, yes...how much is it? I'll give it to you!"

Li Zhuangsheng thought about it and decided that although he didn't care about the money, it would be better not to leave any loopholes since the two were not related at all.

"57 in total," said Li Zhuangsheng.

"Eh... so many..." Hu Mengdie was obviously stunned.

She looked at Hu Mengke, who also looked at her innocently: "You don't have any money?"

Hu Mengdie was sweating all over from embarrassment. The continuous blows made her really want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She blinked her innocent eyes: "I'm sorry... I don't have that much money on me now... I'll owe it to you first and give it to you tomorrow, okay?"

"Don't worry, just give it to Li Xiuyu." Li Zhuangsheng smiled. It was normal for an ordinary high school student to not be able to come up with so much money. He didn't care about this little money. "Okay, I'm so sorry... I, I'm so embarrassed today!" Hu Mengdie bowed deeply, "And your coat... I'll wash it and bring it to you in two days!"

"It's okay if you don't wash it."

"I will definitely wash it thoroughly!" Hu Mengdie swore with a red face.

Li Zhuangsheng could only smile awkwardly, nodded, and turned to leave. But just as he walked outside, Hu Mengke chased him out again, gently grabbed Li Zhuangsheng's clothes, and said reluctantly: "Brother, can you come to my house and play when you have nothing to do in the future? I will cosplay Shugo Chara for you, okay?"

"Don't you like lovelive?"

"You like it too?"

"NicoNicoNi~"

"Uh, don't you feel a little ashamed to just say it out loud?"

Hmm? No, you don't feel ashamed to call me Onii-chan!
"Okay, study hard. You'll be entering junior high school in a few months. Work hard to get into No. 1 Middle School..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhuangsheng suddenly felt a warm breath on his cheek. Before he could react, Hu Mengke kissed him.

"Hey you..."

"If I get into No. 1 Middle School, you must play cosplay with me!" Hu Mengke ran back to KFC without looking back.

Li Zhuangsheng touched his face and thought, is this considered a little red flower... I should keep some distance from Meng Ke in the future. Although she probably has no other intentions, she is not very young anymore.

……

"What's in the book?"

Back at the store, Hu Mengke was very happy and secretly happy, thinking that maybe he had never kissed Hu Mengdie before, but he had kissed her first hehehehe...

Hu Mengdie picked up the code book, tapped it on her head, and put it back into her schoolbag.

"He's so nice to you."

Hu Mengdie drank the half cup of Coke left by Li Zhuangsheng.

Li Zhuangsheng was a person who would insist on finishing all the rice in his bowl no matter how much there was in it to avoid waste. Now he left without finishing his Coke, which showed that he really wanted to leave.

"Are you talking about...brother-in-law?" Hu Mengke said cautiously. She could feel the change in Hu Mengdie's tone.

"Yes, he is really good to you. He always comes to help you at the first opportunity..." Hu Mengdie held a straw in her mouth, looked at Hu Mengke, and smiled inexplicably, "He is like your savior, right?"

Hu Mengke didn't understand the other person's feelings, so he could only nod for the time being: "Hmm..."

What does it mean that he always comes to help me at the first opportunity? Has it happened many times before?

"Do you like him?" Hu Mengdie asked.

"Ah?" Hu Mengke was confused, and then stammered, "I, he is my brother-in-law... I think my brother-in-law is pretty good..."

Although Li Shimin had the intention to seize the throne, Hu Mengke also knew that he was not yet fully prepared and had to be patient.

"I feel he is quite gentle, and I think people who say they like him will respond," Hu Mengdie said, except for his wife.

"Ah?" Hu Mengke tilted his head.

"Go home. I called Teacher Zhou. I won't go to her for tutoring today." Hu Mengdie stood up, put on her schoolbag, and took out an old feature phone from her pocket. "Here, this is for you. It contains my and my parents' numbers. If you encounter any problems at school, just call us."

"Then... my brother-in-law's number..." Hu Mengke's eyes flickered and looked shifty.

"Do you want his number? If you do, I'll give it to you." Hu Mengdie's face was calm.
