After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

"Hao, you're learning bad habits!"

Liu Zifeng chuckled and patted Yang Hao on the shoulder, feeling that his good buddy had finally stepped out from the shadows of his divorce today.

Already flushed from alcohol, Guan Mengmeng's cheeks turned even redder when Yang Hao asked her that.

"Hao, my sister has never had a boyfriend before. What are you saying, all these atrocious words!"

Feng Lina teased from the sidelines, already familiar with Yang Hao.

Yang Hao simply shrugged his shoulders innocently, "Mengmeng said to be her boyfriend for half a day; I have to get the details clear, right?"

"Just during the day, precisely speaking, just a few hours will do."

Guan Mengmeng took over the conversation, then explained, "My parents guarded me like thieves when I was in school, not allowing me to date. Now they're urging me to go on blind dates every day. It's so annoying!"

"So you want to use me as a shield?"

Yang Hao finally understood this prominent doctor's intention.

"Please help me out, Yang! "

"You can tell at a glance that you're a good person. Please show some pity for the kid~!" m vl emp yr exclusive

Guan Mengmeng clasped her hands together, bowing repeatedly. Her expression was quite cute.

Both Liu Zifeng and Feng Lina were speechless. So this was how she manipulated people!

But this cutesy and pitiful act is something most men really can't resist.

"Fine then, just for a few hours, but let's be clear: no staying overnight!" Yang Hao joked.

"Mm, thank you, Yang."

Guan Mengmeng nodded repeatedly, smiling with her eyes curving into crescents.

Feng Lina joked, "Hao, I think you're being sarcastic."

"Nana, you've got to trust Hao's character!"

"We've been brothers for over thirty years, all honest guys!" Liu Zifeng said gravely.

"You?"

"An honest person?"

Feng Lina gave her boyfriend a look that carried a tinge of skepticism, familiar as she was with Liu Zifeng's romantic history.

"It's normal to have a few relationships when you're young!"

Liu Zifeng replied with a hint of guilt, then patted Yang Hao on the shoulder, adding, "But I can vouch for Hao's integrity!"

"Since his divorce, he's been alone, taking care of his child devotedly and decently..."

Liu Zifeng began to build up his good buddy's image, but just as he was speaking fervently, Yang Hao's phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Meng Yuyu.

Yang Hao hesitated for a moment but still pressed the answer key.

"Yang, I'm looking at beds. Some of them are quite nice. I've taken a video to send to you. Which one do you like?"

Meng Yuyu's voice was sweet, not intentionally so, as if she had a naturally flirtatious trait in her voice.

Although she wasn't speaking loudly, the other three reflexively fell silent when Yang Hao answered the call, allowing them to faintly hear the voice coming from the phone.

Yang Hao didn't expect Meng Chacha to start her task so quickly, but of course, he didn't bother about such things. If he had to decide on a bed, it might as well be doing it himself.

Since the System had appointed someone for the task, he'd leave it to her completely!

"You decide on your own; no need to ask me for this matter."

Yang Hao replied nonchalantly.

"Oh, I understand."

"Then I won't disturb you, Yang..."

Meng Yuyu quickly sensed that Yang wasn't very available to talk and decisively ended the call.

This understanding little sister was indeed quick-witted.

Yang Hao put down his phone, then noticed all three looking at him.

"Hao, what's the situation with you?"

"I was just singing your praises!!" Liu Zifeng was the first to ask.

"There's no situation, just a friend." Yang Hao waved his hand casually.

"A regular friend?" Liu Zifeng probed further.

"Yeah, helping me out with something."

Yang Hao didn't want to show off on such an occasion, especially at his buddy's girlfriend's birthday—it wouldn't be cool to upstage him.

As for his windfall, that was something to discuss with Liu Zifeng privately.

Seeing that Yang Hao didn't seem to be lying, Liu Zifeng didn't pursue the topic any further.

The meal was enjoyable, mainly because Feng Lina and Guan Mengmeng were both quite extroverted, ensuring no awkward silences.

As the four prepared to leave, Guan Mengmeng's phone suddenly rang with a video call request.

But Guan Mengmeng frowned, conflicted.

"My aunt?"

Feng Lina leaned over to look and said, "Answer it. Otherwise, she'll call me next."

Guan Mengmeng nodded reluctantly and accepted the video call.

"Mengmeng, it should be over by now, right? Are you satisfied this time?"

The woman on the other end of the video was a dignified middle-aged lady with features faintly resembling Guan Mengmeng's.

"Very satisfied."

"Shall I bring him home to meet you?" Guan Mengmeng twisted her mouth, speaking somewhat resentfully.

"Sure!"

"Your dad happens to be off work today too." To Guan Mengmeng's surprise, Mrs. Xu Yanfen agreed to it without hesitation.

Now Guan Mengmeng didn't know what to say.

Although she had planned to use Yang Hao as a cover, that was for later; she hadn't expected it to be this soon.

"Mengmeng, you're not just humoring me, are you?"

Clearly, Xu Yanfen knew her stubborn daughter very well.

"Uh, I have to get his consent."

"I'll call you back in a bit."

Guan Mengmeng ended the video call, then looked towards Yang Hao and asked weakly, "Yang, can you start the job now?"

"That's also fine."

Yang Hao nodded, "But I have to pick up my daughter at eight-thirty."

"Alrighty! It's only three-thirty now, five hours is plenty!"

Guan Mengmeng's face broke into a smile, thinking that she wouldn't need five hours. If Yang just told his story at her house, the likelihood was that the task would be over.
