“How’s that for a shield, not bad, right?”

Guan Mengmeng said with a smug look on her face.

“Yeah, it’s not bad, in fact, I hit the jackpot!”

Yang Hao laughed and nodded. He had agreed to Guan Mengmeng’s childish request mainly because he thought the girl had the potential to become an NPC.

But now he wasn’t so utilitarian, thinking it’d be fun to have such an interesting “big friend” in his life.

“Hao, Mengmeng, we’re heading out, there’s another round with the colleagues waiting.”

Liu Zifeng’s designated driver had arrived; he greeted Yang Hao and Guan Mengmeng, then he and Feng Lina got into the car.

“Hao, put on a good show later!”

“Who knows, you might even get a permanent position out of it!”

Feng Lina, sitting in the car, rolled down the window and waved at them while teasing.

Yang Hao shook his head with a smile, “I’m not falling for that; temporary workers are there to take the blame, there’s no such thing as going permanent!”

Hearing the reply, Feng Lina burst into laughter, thinking silently to herself: Old men really are hard to trick!

“Yang, my designated driver will be here any minute.”

Guan Mengmeng had also driven here; her car was an ice-pink Ballet Cat.

This car was definitely targeted at young girls like Guan Mengmeng.

But honestly, there’s not much to say about its cost-effectiveness. Guan Mengmeng’s 500km range Ballet Cat was priced at 179,800 yuan, and there are so many cars you could buy at that price.

However, many girls are willing to pay for it, so netizens jokingly call it the “Pretty Girl’s Leek Car.”

Since they were going to the same destination, there was no need for Yang Hao to call another driver to take his car over as well.

About half an hour later.

The Ballet Cat drove into the Riverside Garden residential complex’s underground garage.

Yang Hao and Guan Mengmeng got out of the car and took tobacco and alcohol they had bought on the way from the trunk.

An act isn’t complete without playing the part; bringing gifts when visiting for the first time is customary.

But these items were paid for by Guan Mengmeng, because, after all, Yang Hao was just an actor; it was already good enough that he wasn’t getting paid, let alone spending his own money.

Although Yang Hao didn’t care about the money, the act would be spoiled if he spent it himself.

“By the way, Mengmeng, what’s my character setting?”

While waiting for the elevator, Yang Hao asked.

“Just be yourself, whatever they ask you, just answer truthfully,”

Guan Mengmeng said, then added, “Um… if my mom says something unpleasant, don’t stoop to her level!”

“I suspect she’s got retirement syndrome; she keeps finding things to nitpick over lately!”

Yang Hao nodded indifferently: “They’re the elders, let them say whatever they want.”

As they talked, the elevator reached the underground floor. Guan Mengmeng took a deep breath and then gently pumped her fists, murmuring softly: Victory! Victory!

Yang Hao looked at this childish ghost and found it hard to imagine what she was like when treating patients.

Would her patients really listen to her?

The elevator stopped on the 20th floor.

The apartment had a two-unit layout per floor, and Guan Mengmeng’s was the East unit, number 20-1.

“Yang, are you nervous?”

Guan Mengmeng asked softly as they stepped out of the elevator.

“Do I need to be nervous?” Yang Hao curiously replied.

“Uh, no need!”

“I mean to say, I’m so nervous…”@@novelbin@@

Guan Mengmeng actually felt a bit of regret for dragging Yang Hao along as a shield, because she had never brought a man home before, not even ordinary friends.

The usually confident doctor suddenly felt cowardly.

“How about we break up now!”

Yang Hao showed Guan Mengmeng a way out, previously it had been five hours, but breaking up now would only be four hours early.

“No way!”

“I can’t bow down to evil forces!”

Guan Mengmeng made up her mind, strode to her door, entered her fingerprint, and opened the door.

However, the moment she opened the door, she regretted it again.

Because at that moment, not only her parents were at home, but also her second aunt and uncle, Feng Lina’s parents.

Guan Mengmeng felt overwhelmed; she had overlooked the relationship between her mom and her second aunt. For such an occasion, her second aunt and uncle from the neighboring compound would surely attend!

The situation had escalated from a double-panel review to a quadruple-panel review.

The difficulty level had sharply increased!

It was a huge test of the actors’ skills.

“Mengmeng is back, come on in.”

While Guan Mengmeng’s brain was rapidly processing, her parents and her second aunt and uncle had already come to greet them.

Of course, the four of them were not there to welcome her but to meet Yang Hao who followed behind her.

“Hello, uncle and aunt.”

Yang Hao was quite composed, politely greeted the four of them, and then placed the cigarettes and liquor that Guan Mengmeng had bought to the side.

“Please come in!”

“You sure are tall…”

Xu Yanfen warmly greeted him while sizing up Yang Hao.

After settling down in the living room, Guan Mengmeng made introductions for both sides.

“Yang, you’re a friend of Lina’s boyfriend, right?”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, second aunt Xu Yanxia started asking.

“Yes, Zifeng and I have known each other since we were kids.” Yang Hao nodded.

“Then who’s older between you and Zifeng?” Xu Yanxia was inquiring about Yang Hao’s age.

“We’re the same age, but my birthday is a bit earlier.” Yang Hao replied truthfully.

“The same age?”

Xu Yanxia paused slightly: “So you’re also 35?”

“Yes.” Yang Hao nodded.

Xu Yanxia raised her eyebrows and exchanged a look with her sister Xu Yanfen, who subconsciously furrowed her brows.

“Yang, you know how old Mengmeng is, right?” Xu Yanxia asked again.

“I know.”

“We are from the same zodiac year!”

On the way there, Yang Hao had already asked Guan Mengmeng; she was 23 this year, making them just a cycle apart.

“Second aunt, what era are we in!”

“Age is just a number after all, besides you see Yang doesn’t look like a 35-year-old!”
