Chapter 1813: She Deserves You

~6 min read 1,192 words

Ning Chen knew that this male classmate was called Zhao Hong, a high school classmate of Zhu Meng's, who had always had feelings for Zhu Meng, but because Zhu Meng had always looked down on him, the two of them never got together.

Ning Chen had originally not wanted to stoop to this kind of person's level.

But the other party had taken the initiative to come provoke him.

A few days later.

Zhao Hong came to the shop again.

This time he brought several companions with him.

Zhao Hong plopped himself down on the bar counter and said, "Ning Chen, I've been watching you for a few days now. You don't deserve Zhu Meng at all."

Ning Chen gave a faint smile and said, "So you think you deserve Zhu Meng?"

Zhao Hong said disdainfully, "Although I don't deserve Zhu Meng, I wouldn't be like you—a toad lusting after a swan's flesh. You're just a poor loser; what right do you have to be with Zhu Meng?"

Ning Chen gave a faint smile and said, "Whether she deserves me or not isn't for you to decide."

Zhao Hong snorted and said, "I heard you bought Zhu Meng's house? Do you know how much that house costs? It could buy your life ten times over!"

Ning Chen was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected this Zhao Hong to hate him so much.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Everyone's life is priceless, but I don't think your life is worth that much money either."

Zhao Hong was choked speechless by Ning Chen's words.

He said very unhappily, "Ning Chen, this is just a personal grudge between you and me. If you don't interfere, I promise I won't bother Zhu Meng again. If you keep pestering her, I promise I'll ruin your reputation!"

Ning Chen gave a faint smile and said, "Then I'll be waiting for your good news."

Zhao Hong left in a furious rage.

Ning Chen knew this person would definitely find another chance to target him.

However, Zhao Hong did not come looking for trouble with Ning Chen again, because Zhu Meng had laid her cards on the table with him.

Zhu Meng told Zhao Hong that she was already with Ning Chen, and hoped he would stop pestering her in the future.

Zhao Hong was very surprised.

He had originally thought Zhu Meng was just temporarily bewitched by Ning Chen's sweet talk.

But he hadn't expected Zhu Meng to be so resolute.

Zhao Hong didn't want to give up on Zhu Meng.

After all, with his conditions, he could easily find a very nice girl, but he liked Zhu Meng and had always wanted to be with her.

So he often pestered Zhu Meng.

He even went to Ning Chen's shop to cause trouble for Ning Chen.

But Ning Chen simply ignored him.

No matter what Zhao Hong said, Ning Chen acted as if he hadn't heard it.

This made Zhao Hong very annoyed.

That day.

Zhao Hong came to the shop again. He went straight to the bar counter, slammed the table and said, "Ning Chen, are you going to break up with Zhu Meng or not? If you don't break up, I promise I'll ruin your reputation!"

Ning Chen was busy with work, and upon hearing these words, he immediately got angry.

He hated this kind of threatening talk the most.

He immediately slammed the table as well and said, "Zhao Hong, my business with Zhu Meng is none of your concern. If you keep pestering, I promise I'll make you regret it!"

What Zhao Hong hated most was Ning Chen's seemingly threatening tone.

He snorted and said, "Ning Chen, don't think I don't know why you're with Zhu Meng. If you don't break up, I promise I'll show you what regret means!"

Ning Chen gave a faint smile and said, "Up to you."

After Zhao Hong left, Ning Chen was also a little worried.

He didn't know what method Zhao Hong would use to deal with him.

But after thinking about it, he felt Zhao Hong probably wouldn't dare to act recklessly.

After all, he now had Zhu Meng as his backing.

Although Zhu Meng didn't know Wu Gong, her background was not something an ordinary person could compare to.

Ning Chen's worry was unnecessary.

Because of what happened next.

It made him realize how right it was for him to be with Zhu Meng.

This matter starts a few days later.

A few days later.

A group of people came to Ning Chen's coffee shop.

These people didn't say a word, just sat in the shop and refused to leave.

Ning Chen was very helpless.

His shop wasn't very big to begin with.

Once these people sat down.

The other customers were scared away.

With no choice, Ning Chen walked up to one of them and said, "Brothers, what do you mean by this?"

That person snorted and said, "Ning Chen, we also admire your courage, but you should know that Zhu Meng is our boss's woman. If you mess with her, you're asking for death!"

Ning Chen was slightly taken aback; he instinctively felt these people must have something to do with Zhao Hong.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Go back and tell Zhao Hong that I won't pursue this matter any further, and tell him to stop targeting me in the future."

Those people completely ignored Ning Chen's words.

They continued sitting there ordering things.

But after ordering, they refused to pay.

They even arrogantly splashed coffee onto the counter. Ning Chen, seeing their arrogant and domineering demeanor, laughed in anger and said, "Gentlemen, do you think this is a vegetable market where you can take things for free?"

Those people burst into loud laughter, and one of them said, "Ning Chen, you are truly naive. Do you really think Zhu Meng is with you because she likes you? It's just that you look like our boss when he was young. Zhu Meng is merely reminiscing about the past; you are nothing but a substitute."

Ning Chen was slightly stunned; he had not expected that Zhu Meng's affection for him stemmed from this reason.

He understood immediately.

It seemed Zhao Hong could not win Zhu Meng, so he used this method to force Ning Chen to leave her.

He immediately said, "Then go back and tell Zhao Hong that I appreciate his kindness, but I will not leave Zhu Meng."

Those people were very surprised.

They had originally expected Ning Chen to break up with Zhu Meng.

After all, how could Ning Chen's qualifications compare to Zhao Hong's?

But Ning Chen's stubbornness was beyond their expectations.

One of them immediately slapped the table and said, "Ning Chen, are you refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit?"

Ning Chen smiled slightly and said, "Bring it on."

Those people each took something out of their pockets.

It was obvious they were weapons.

Ning Chen was not afraid in the slightest.

Those people quickly put their items away and prepared to leave.

But they were blocked by two figures.
