Awaken: I See Tags, I Rewrite My Life-Chapter 30: Scumbag, You Finally Came
Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Scumbag, You Finally Came
No way, Meng Cheng’an is too beautiful and loves wearing white shirts.
The snow-white collar sets off his jade-like handsome face, making him particularly striking.
Seeing Meng Cheng’an alone, Tian Xiang went over.
Even though Meng and Chen Yong both have the small villain label on their foreheads, Meng Cheng’an’s position in her heart is unmatched by Chen Yong.
The place where Meng Cheng’an sat was a bit off, near the door.
And it was strange, other places were crowded to death, but his sides and front were all empty.
Tian Xiang: "No one’s here, right?"
She was asking about the seat opposite.
Meng Cheng’an: "Are you sure you want to sit here?"
"What’s there to be sure about? If no one’s here, I’ll sit down."
Tian Xiang said as she directly sat down; anyway, there was still a seat here, and she’d give way if someone came.
Meng Cheng’an stared at her for a second, his eyes dark as a pool, making Tian Xiang somewhat baffled.
"What? Is there really someone?"
Meng Cheng’an shook his head, helplessly smiled.
What was that expression?
Tian Xiang felt a little strange, looked around, and noticed many people were looking this way.
Just sharing a table, what’s there to see?
Tian Xiang found these people perplexing, always giving her weird looks.
Yes, my face is as beautiful as a flower, but you should look at it with appreciation, not strange eyes!
Tian Xiang didn’t care and took out an egg from her bag.
"You’re just eating this?"
Potatoes stewed with cabbage, looking like it has no oil at all.
Meng Cheng’an poked the potato chunks in his meal box, asking casually: "Why not go over there?"
Tian Xiang peeling her egg, "Where?"
"I saw you came in with Chen Yong."
Turns out he saw me earlier.
Tian Xiang: "We’re both in the Internal Affairs Department, even assigned to the same group, but he left a bad impression on me."
"Oh. Why?"
Tian Xiang: "Isn’t it clear? The night of the dance, he bullied you, obviously not a good person."
Chen Yong’s intentions towards her were obvious, Tian Xiang had to avoid him.
If she even smiled at him, and he misunderstood, it’d cause big trouble later.
Meng Cheng’an: "I don’t like him either."
The two exchanged a glance and saw amusement in each other’s eyes.
In the distance, Chen Yong saw Tian Xiang chatting happily with Meng Cheng’an and felt heartbroken and disappointed.
He even ordered two meat dishes, thinking of sharing them with the girl he liked, only to find she didn’t even want to look at him.
A perfectly beautiful girl, why would she like Meng Cheng’an!
With that kind of background, even colorblind, what advantage does he have over me?
Chen Yong stuffed a bite of white rice into his mouth, turning his grief and anger into appetite.
On the other side, Tian Xiang had almost finished eating, and asked Meng Cheng’an about some things.
"Has Lu Feng been discharged from the hospital? Has he come to work?"
Meng Cheng’an and Lu Feng were both with the factory’s union propaganda department.
Hearing the name Lu Feng, Meng Cheng’an’s face didn’t look good.
"He came in this morning."
So, he’s been discharged!
Tian Xiang: "What is his current situation at work? Are colleagues privately discussing him, and what do people think about his relationship with Widow Jiang?"
The factory disciplinary action concerning Lu Feng’s personal conduct had revoked his outstanding worker title, and the announcement had already been posted. Tian Xiang saw it this morning.
The departmental meeting for a review, not sure if it’s been scheduled.
Meng Cheng’an: "You still don’t know?"
"Huh? What?"
Have I missed something again?
Meng Cheng’an: "When you return to the office, take a look at today’s Red Star Weekly."
It’s even been reported!
Tian Xiang: "What’s the situation, just tell me directly!"
Making her feel anxious like a cat scratching.
Meng Cheng’an’s expression was complex, "It’s hard to explain in a few words."
Alright.
After eating, the two went to the sink to wash their meal boxes, then Tian Xiang quickly returned to the office.
The newspaper in the office was subscribed collectively by the unit, each department had one.
It was lunch break, the office was empty.
Tian Xiang found this morning’s just-released Red Star Weekly on Director Li’s desk.
She skimmed through it and found a piece by Lu Feng in the story section.
—— "How Can I Bridge the Gap Between Us"
What a mess!
Tian Xiang quickly scanned through it and laughed softly.
Lu Feng was not foolish, his tactics were even sophisticated.
She had gone to great lengths to pull him off the pedestal, and immediately he acted, portraying himself here as a deeply romantic figure, packaging his sordid nighttime visits to the widow’s home as a tragic love hindered by societal barriers.
Tsk tsk tsk...
This move salvaged both his and Widow Jiang’s reputation.
Only Wu Jinzhu had to suffer a bit, as the villain obstructing her son’s path to love.
But as Lu Feng’s biological mother, Wu Jinzhu must have been willing.
After all, her disagreement was only human nature.
A normal young man with a widow, the family agreeing would be strange.
The elder women could sympathize, Wu Jinzhu’s little mistake was inconsequential.
With Lu Feng’s high-profile confession of love, Tian Xiang silently mourned for the supporting girls in his harem.
As long as his leading man label stayed, the supporting girls’ feelings wouldn’t easily collapse, like Tian Chuying, that fool, braving criticism to go to the hospital.
The only likely change was Zeng Qingwen.
She would feel more disgusted than eating a fly seeing this report!
Even if the supporting girl label on her forehead doesn’t come off, it must step back.
Despite everything, why hasn’t Widow Jiang become the female lead!
Tian Xiang took out a mirror and looked at it, the female lead label on her head seemed welded in place, unchanged.
Her label hadn’t come off; Lu Feng’s measures today were likely just to restore his reputation, secretly maybe already having discussed the follow-up with Widow Jiang.
Today, Lu Feng first promotes their love affair to turn around his reputation.
Then Widow Jiang might voluntarily withdraw under the pretense of not wanting Lu Feng to defy filial piety, offering blessings.
In this way, both win and regain their reputation.
Or, Lu Feng might act more despicably, directly deceiving Widow Jiang’s feelings, pretending he wants to marry and have children with her, mesmerizing her first.
Then, sneakily plotting to frame Widow Jiang, making people think she betrayed him, ending their relationship.
In this case, Lu Feng not only turns around his reputation but also evokes sympathy, creating a pitiful persona, gaining more goodwill.
If it’s the latter, then it’s truly brilliant.
A sordid incident could become a stepping stone in his glorious life.
Putting down the newspaper, Tian Xiang started rubbing her forehead.
She had not the slightest care for Lu Feng’s romantic entanglements with the supporting girls, she just wanted to remove her female lead label.
But why is it so difficult?
She’s already torn faces with that person, why?
Tian Xiang was vexed when someone knocked on the office door, and she turned to look.
Great, the scumbag came just in time.
Tian Xiang stood up abruptly, pushing her chair aside, striding towards Lu Feng.
"You finally came..."
