Chapter 1471 -1461: Terms of Address

As Jiang Cheng drifted off into his thoughts, Mengmeng had already brought breakfast in, which surprised Jiang Cheng. He didn’t know what to say, and so they just stared at each other. After a few minutes, Mengmeng put down the breakfast and said to Jiang Cheng, “You’re up?”

Following this, Lu Dai asked awkwardly, “Jiang Cheng, do you remember what happened last night?” Jiang Cheng had already blacked out and couldn’t possibly remember. However, looking at the various clues from Mengmeng, it was apparent that something big happened last night.

Jiang Cheng’s mind was blank as he looked at Mengmeng’s flushed face, suddenly feeling pained. Whenever he thought of last night, his head ached fiercely once again.

Jiang Cheng thought about it and glanced at the person before him. Her flushed cheeks were very cute, but he couldn’t remember anything. Thus, he said to Mengmeng, “Mengmeng, didn’t I drink with retired soldiers last night? I kept drinking until I ended up here, right?”

Mengmeng nodded, “No, last night you were drinking, and afterward? Do you still remember what happened then? Hmm? Did you forget it was me who carried you back?”

I seem to have forgotten about what happened afterward. Sorry, Mengmeng. I can’t recall it now. If you know, could you tell me? Maybe I could remember,” Jiang Cheng said.

Mengmeng looked at Jiang Cheng in front of her and breathed a sigh of relief. If he discovered what she did, she’d probably be unable to stay by his side.

Jiang Cheng never seemed to like scheming girls. But when she thought about Jiang Cheng forgetting their night together, Mengmeng felt a bit saddened, though she couldn’t show it.

But what can she do? If she told him about it, would he take responsibility for her? She decided to wait for the right time. At that point, even if he didn’t want to, he would have to.

Thus, Mengmeng said to Jiang Cheng, “It was just an accident, let’s eat first.”

Jiang Cheng always felt things weren’t so simple. Seeing Mengmeng’s eyes, he didn’t want to say anything and just kept his head down, eating quietly.

“Let me introduce: this is my boyfriend, Jiang Cheng!”

“President Jiang, what are you thinking?” Mengmeng buried her head, face completely red, and looked at Jiang Cheng.

Watching the bashful Mengmeng, Jiang Cheng thought about waking up in the white bed with Mengmeng openly beside him. Catching sight of the bright red on the white sheets unintentionally made Jiang Cheng feel as if his soul was gone.

For Jiang Cheng, isn’t Mengmeng just a sister? How could he lose control after drinking and end up having relations with her?

Meng Ying, seeing Jiang Cheng unresponsive for some time, grew anxious, saying, “President Jiang, I understand you. I know you don’t like me. Mengmeng, I don’t dislike you, but my affection for you is just sibling love!” Jiang Cheng explained, feeling awkward, fearing Mengmeng’s heartbreak yet also afraid she’d think too much of it.

Upon hearing this, Mengmeng’s expression dimmed, asking heavily, “Jiang Cheng brother, what are we going to do about this situation? I…”

Suddenly, the “ring-ring-ring” of the phone rang out; someone was calling Jiang Cheng. Mengmeng curiously glanced at the phone; “Xu Ying” appeared on the display.

Hello, Jiang Cheng! I’m less than a thousand meters away from you now,” Xu Ying cheerfully said from the other end of the phone.

If Jiang Cheng suddenly sees me, will he be as excited as I am? I miss him so much!

Stop it! Let me think clearly.” Jiang Cheng was already troubled by the matter of Mengmeng, and Xu Ying’s nonstop chatter on the phone made him angry.

Xu Ying on the other end and Mengmeng beside Jiang Cheng were both shocked by his sudden outburst.

Provoked, Xu Ying angrily questioned, “Jiang Cheng, what’s wrong with you? I came all the way to see you; how could you do this? I just asked where you were, intending to invite you to hang out. Are you crazy! What’s all the yelling about? What are you thinking?

Sorry, Xu Ying. I just encountered something and lost my composure. I shouldn’t have gotten mad at you, apologies!” Jiang Cheng realized he was out of line, promptly made gentlemanly amends to Xu Ying.

Being from a distinguished background, Xu Ying didn’t hold it against Jiang Cheng. Instead, she said graciously, “Hmm, it’s okay! What’s giving you such a headache? Tonight at six-thirty, Paris Left Bank Restaurant—I’ll see you there!

Alright, see you!” Jiang Cheng replied before hanging up the phone. He turned back to see Mengmeng, who was softly sobbing, and a sense of guilt washed over him.

“Jiang Cheng brother,” Mengmeng was crying while calling Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng looked up at Mengmeng and asked, “Mengmeng, calm down. Just tell me, do you think it’s better to be with someone you love or someone who loves you?”

I feel being with someone I love is better; at least I’ll be happy. Life is short; happiness counts,” Mengmeng thought for a while before replying to Jiang Cheng.

Whatever you’ve done, you have to take responsibility; who told you to mess things up? Even if crying, you’ve got to be accountable!

Okay, then let’s try… try dating!” Jiang Cheng gently patted Mengmeng’s shoulder, hesitantly saying.

Uncertain whether this was for Mengmeng or against her interests, Jiang Cheng thought.

Upon Jiang Cheng’s definitive response, Mengmeng was so happy she nearly jumped. She rushed up to hug Jiang Cheng, saying, “That’s great, what should I call you now? My boyfriend—Jiang Cheng! Hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee

Just call me Jiang Cheng brother, names are merely tags. If you’re used to calling me Jiang Cheng brother, just keep calling me that!” Jiang Cheng said, while subtly pulling Mengmeng’s hands apart, realizing it might not be good to be so close.

Mengmeng couldn’t help but frown at Jiang Cheng’s suggestion, gently tapping his back with her little fist, saying, “How could it be like this? Do you really like this address?”

Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat, stammering to explain, “I… I don’t mean that, just believe the name isn’t that important.”

Oh… if that’s the case, let’s change it. If people find out about our relationship and hear me calling you Jiang Cheng brother, they’d have a stronger reaction than mine before! Would you like people thinking about you and me like that?” Mengmeng said, hugging Jiang Cheng once again.

Seizing the moment, Jiang Cheng promptly pushed Mengmeng out of his embrace, holding her shoulders, saying, “Alright then, just change how you address me!”

How about Jiang? Or Bye? How about Husband or Beloved…” Mengmeng laughingly suggested.

Jiang Cheng, hearing Mengmeng’s exaggerated proposals, accidentally swallowed his saliva into his airway, choking so much he couldn’t stop coughing.

Meng Ying saw Jiang Cheng cough uncontrollably and grew worried, quickly running behind him to pound his back, saying, “Don’t be so anxious, if you don’t like those names, I can change them!”
