Chapter 1289: Tyrant Senior Falls In Love With Me
“First, Pan Jinlian!” Bai Lan held up one finger as she made that irrelevant comment.
Gu Mengmeng choked on her beverage and nearly spat out in Bai Lan’s face. She stared at her in confusion. “Who?”
“Pan Jinlian…” Bai Lan seemed to be a bit tipsy. She stared woodenly at Gu Mengmeng as she repeated. “Mmm, yes. Pan Jinlian.”
“Madam, at the very least I have gone through primary school. Don’t bluff me!” Gu Mengmeng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She was always busy working and didn’t spend much time on her books, but she at least knew who Pan Jinlian was. She was not a good role model at all.
Bai Lan shook her finger vigorously in front of Gu Mengmeng’s face, making a “No No No” gesture. “Listen to me. Pan Jinlian… taught us… what did she teach us… hiccup… ah, I remember. Pan Jinlian taught us that men… hold on to those you like. If you don’t like him, just poison him and get a new one. Simple and straightforward! But just look at that great man beside you. Does he look like someone who would drink poison? Ha… no! Definitely no!”
Gu Mengmeng broke out in cold sweat…
She instinctively stole a glance at Snakel, only to see him benignly playing with her hair. He whispered by her ear such that only she could hear, “Bring me some poison and I will definitely try my best. But… poison is completely ineffective on me.”
Gu Mengmeng thought Snakel was joking and just elbowed him. She shook her head with a smile before turning back to Bai Lan, who was now holding up two fingers. “The second prime example is… Wu Zetian.”
Wu Zetian? What did Wu Zetian have to do with love? Wasn’t she famous for being an empress?
Bai Lan gave a condescending smile as she poked Gu Mengmeng’s head. “Wu Zetian taught us that for men, keep those who are obedient. If they refuse to comply… kill them! Actions speak louder than words.”
Gu Mengmeng, “…”
Was it really like that? I didn’t study much, don’t try and trick me!
Laughing, Bai Lan raised a third finger. “The third prime example, Tang Sanzang.”
Gu Mengmeng’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. She shook Bai Lan’s shoulders. “Madam, wake up! Tang Sanzang is a man and a monk at that. He has nothing to do with love!”
Bai Lan shook her head. “You are such an unworldly little girl. Why are you so naive? Tell me, how are you still so naive?!”
Gu Mengmeng stared at Bai Lan in confusion. Bai Lan continued. “Tell me, why are there so many demoness vying to marry Tang Sanzang in ‘Journey to the West?’ Mmm? Why!”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it. “Tang Sanzang… is handsome?”
Bai Lan shook her head. “Because Tang Sanzang is tasty and very nutritious! So, if you can endure the days after marriage, do so. But if you can’t… you can still have affairs.”
Gu Mengmeng felt this logic was completely ridiculous! She patted slapped her thighs in laughter.
But Bai Lan remained unsmiling. She pulled Gu Mengmeng from Snakel’s arms and hugged her as she bawled. “But you purposely chose such a powerful person? What if he suddenly decides to bully you in future, he can really bully you to death. In the entire S City, there is probably no one who would even dare come forth to claim our dead bodies!”
At the end of the day, Bai Lan still showed so much concern for her.
Gu Mengmeng’s heart warmed. She returned Bai Lan’s hug and said comfortingly, “That won’t happen. You said earlier that he has power and status while I have nothing. If he didn’t really like me, why waste time on me? What do I have that is worth someone setting up such an elaborate scheme just to bully me, right?”
