Chapter 186: 144 Pork Belly: You Won't Know How Good Your Body Is Until You Try (3 more updates)_2 "There's a saying about being indebted once you accept someone's help, and since he's very meticulous and attentive, Ruan Mengxi had a good impression of him.

She had promised to treat, but the restaurant was booked by Jiang Jinsang. She had initially worried it might be sfancy restaurant and even brought her credit card, but it turned out to be a rather quaint place with very affordable prices.

After a few experiences, Ruan Mengxi felt this man was quite decent.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long while, naturally having a lot to catch up on. It was inevitable to somewhat neglect Jiang Jinsang, but he was in good spirits, just quietly listening and even refilled their tea a few times to ensure they weren't thirsty.

Ruan Mengxi tends to be more extroverted. Seeing Tang Wan, she almost wished she could rush over and hug him, but she had to act composed because Jiang Jinsang was there.

"I'm going to the restroom, you guys chat slowly." No sooner had Jiang Jinsang left than Ruan Mengxi couldn't wait to ask, “Jiang Wuye, yes, that's him. There's probably no second person in Beijing with that name. He cto your house, not to call off an engagement, so how did you two end up together?" "We just ended up together," Tang Wan said, sipping her tea.

"No wonder when I asked for his name, and wanted you to showa picture, you flat out refused. Everyone says he has a temper, but he seems fine to me, very easy-going and considerate, mainly taking good care of you. For a man, being perceptive is essential." "Rumors aren't necessarily true." "But it's true he's not in good health, right?" Tang Wan choked on her words.

"I saw his brother from a distance before, tall, wearing a suit, and you can tell he's well-built just by looking. But this Jiang Wuye seems to be a bit..." Ruan Mengxi pursed her lips, "Is he a good driver?" "Ahem—" Tang Wan choked on her tea.

"It's a very practical question; so many couples get divorced over dissatisfaction after marriage," Ruan Mengxi stated bluntly, "What, you two went out for a few days, and nothing happened?" Tang Wan's face turned red as she coughed and wiped her mouth with a tissue, keeping her head down in silence.

"Don't tell me, one bed, three nights, and you're going to tellyou guys just chatted under the blankets holding hands?" "We just started, it's too soon for that." "I heard he won't live past 28, is that true?" "It feels like his health isn't as bad as the rumors say..." "Feels?" Ruan Mengxi clenched her teeth, “Tang Xiaowan, this is about your lifetcommitment. We can skip the talk about marital life, but if his health is really poor and one day a breeze blows him away, what will you do? This isn't a joke." As a friend, she naturally hoped Tang Wan could find someone to grow old with. Seeing Jiang Jinsang in such poor health, she didn't think he was suitable for marriage or even dating.

"What I'm telling you is, the best way to know if he's physically fit or not is..." "To try it out yourself!" Spur of the moment decisions! "When you talked just now, you barely said anything, I thought you would ask something, test him a bit," Tang Wan changed the subject.

"He and I aren't familiar, I've only met him once. So far, he seems like a nice person. You've been around him much longer, surely you know him better. Sometimes you can't fully understand someone their entire life, what can I possibly discern in these few minutes?" Ruan Mengxi was quite perceptive in saspects.

"Besides, testing him is so subjective, everyone has flaws. If he doesn't want to answer, it could becawkward, it's too disrespectful, especially at a first meeting. Just enjoy eating and drinking." "And I trust your judgment, the person you like must be good." Before Ruan Mengsi could finish, the private room door opened, and both instinctively straightened up, smiling at him.

"Wuye, you're back," Tang Wan coughed.

He nodded, his gaze casually passing over Ruan Mengxi with a nearly imperceptible smile on his lips. Suddenly nervous, Ruan Mengxi held her cup and took a sip of tea, trying to mask her embarrassment. Talking about someone behind their back always left one feeling a bit guilty.

"Oh, by the way, Wuye, if you don't mindasking, how long have you and Wanwan been together?" Ruan Mengxi broached a casual topic, "How did you get together?" "Not long," Jiang Jinsang looked at Tang Wan, his expression intense, "For me, it was like..." "Love at first sight." Tang Wan's heart skipped a beat, she coughed and averted her eyes: "It's like it's real." Ruan Mengxi cleared her throat. As a best friend, she was quite conscious of certain boundaries, sthings were better left unasked, casual conversation was fine. But after all, the man opposite her was Jiang Jinsang, and deep down, she felt a bit intimidated...

"Miss Ruan," Jiang Jinsang picked up the kettle, "want swater?" "I'll get it myself." Ruan Mengxi took the teapot from his hand and poured water for herself.

"You've been talking for a while, you must be thirsty." " " Ruan Mengxi blinked, unable to recover her composure. "The soundproofing in this restaurant isn't very good." Her hand trembled, and the tea almost splashed out.

Tang Wan lowered her head and couldn't help but laugh out loud, while Ruan Mengxi was already embarrassed, her face turning the color of a vegetable.

Not good soundproofing? So what exactly did he hear? Ruan Mengxi and Tang Wan were very close. When alone, they naturally said anything without restrictions. She didn't know that the soundproofing of the private room was poor.

Jiang Jinsang didn't mean to embarrass her. After all, they still had to stay in the room for a while. He thought the soundproofing was good, rambling freely, but it wouldn't be good if others outside could hear.

"Let's order," Tang Wan coughed, having arrived early, the three of them sat and chatted for a while.

This dinner was very enjoyable for Tang Wan. Jiang Jinsang looked normal, occasionally serving Tang Wan food, taking care of Ruan Mengxi, acting like a qualified and considerate boyfriend.

But Ruan Mengxi was distracted, hiding things in her heart, and her reaction was slow. Jiang Jinsang had paid the bill before she realized.

"Mr. Jiang, we agreed that I would treat you and Wanwan to this meal.

"It's our first meeting, it should be on me, next tit'll be your treat, which community do you live in, we'll take you home."

At the community entrance, the best friends stood in the cold wind and talked for a long time. Giang Jinsang didn't quite understand why girls always had endless things to discuss.

If it weren't for the fact that both had things to do the next day, Jiangm ex day, Jinsang might not have been able to take them back at all and they would have definitely stayed overnight. After watching Ruan Mengxi enter the apartment building, Tang Wan got into the car.

"Did you hear something at the entrance just now?" Tang Wan turned to look at Jiang Jinsang, who was responsible for driving today.

"What should I have heard?" "She askedto tell you something: she said that she's also a decent person normally, the kind who blushes when she talks." Tang Wan coughed, feeling timid as she spoke such insincere words.

Jiang Jinsang turned his head to look at her, "Buckle your seatbelt."

Tang Wan had just fastened her seatbelt when her hand was grasped, "Also, tell her that next tshe En: wants to chat, find a warmer place." She had stood in the cold wind for a long time, and her body was already chilled through.

At that moment, Tang Wan's phone vibrated. Ruan Mengxi had sent her a voice message, probably telling her that she was home.

Tang Wan directly played it. She didn't use the speaker, only blaming the excessive quietness inside the car...

"I'm hnow, thank him again for me, I had a great ttoday. You're driving back too, be safe, be cautious, and watch your speed!" The beginning was fine, but that last part about watching the speed...

Tang Wan covered her face with her hand as Jiang Jinsang's low laughter sounded: "Your friend really is a decent person." "But she did say something quite right today..." "You only know if you're well when you try." Tang Wan turned to look out the window, her face burning as if scorched; he really had heard...
