Chapter 153 I only care about how I perceive you
Li Menghan gripped the steering wheel with both hands, driving the red Ferrari sports car.
The car sped along the wide street, heading straight for Dai Yuqian's home.
While driving, Li Menghan had many thoughts on her mind.
In the past, every time Li Menghan went to Dai Yuqian's house, it was either to try to get back together with her or to humbly try to make her happy.
He was so naive back then.
He always thought that Dai Yuqian was a very good and very innocent girl.
He felt that he was just a poor kid who delivered food.
He must be incredibly lucky to have found a girl like Dai Yuqian, who is not only beautiful but also doesn't look down on him.
So even just a few days ago, after he learned that he had become rich.
His first thought was to run to Dai Yuqian to prove himself.
He wanted to prove to Dai Yuqian that he was now rich and capable of being worthy of her, and that he could buy her many expensive things.
Li Menghan sat in the car and shook her head helplessly.
He thought, this is probably what people often call the disease of poverty.
The more a person lacks something, the more they want to prove it to others.
Even if you now completely possess such a thing, you will still have that urge to prove it to others.
Soon, the red Ferrari arrived at Pinganli Community and came to a steady stop downstairs at Dai Yuqian's home.
This time, Li Menghan didn't plan to go upstairs.
He sat in the car, took out his phone, and dialed Dai Yuqian's number first.
After the call connected, Dai Yuqian could tell that Li Menghan's tone was very cold, completely lacking the gentleness she used to have.
She felt something was off and asked Li Menghan:
"Menghan, what's wrong? Your tone sounds strange."
Li Menghan didn't say much on the phone, only that:
"Come down here, and I'll tell you to your face."
Dai Yuqian asked Li Menghan to come upstairs over the phone, saying:
"What are you waiting for downstairs? Come up here first, no one's home right now."
However, Li Menghan's attitude was very firm, and he said loudly:
"I'm not going up. Come downstairs now, and I'll wait for you in the car."
So Dai Yuqian had no choice but to agree.
Three minutes later, Dai Yuqian came down from the stairwell.
She dressed up specially today and looked very nice.
She saw Li Menghan sitting in the car, immediately walked over, opened the car door, and sat in the passenger seat.
As soon as she got into the car, she looked at Li Menghan and asked expectantly:
"Menghan, why are you in such a hurry to see me? Has your father's matter been resolved?"
"If we're together now, he probably won't send anyone to threaten me anymore, right?"
Li Menghan looked at her and shook her head expressionlessly.
When Dai Yuqian saw Li Menghan shake her head, she assumed that Li Menghan meant that her father would no longer threaten her.
Her face immediately lit up with a look of great surprise.
Dai Yuqian happily reached out, wanting to pull Li Menghan's arm.
She said loudly:
"In that case, let's go out for a meal and celebrate!"
"I just found a newly opened restaurant on my phone today. The ambiance is really nice, and the food is quite expensive. It's a perfect place for taking photos and posting on social media. Let's go now! I want to take lots of pictures!"
Li Menghan found Dai Yuqian's words utterly ridiculous.
He didn't start the car, but instead shook off Dai Yuqian's hand.
Li Menghan looked into Dai Yuqian's eyes and said in a very calm tone:
Let's break up.
As soon as those words were spoken, the car fell silent.
Dai Yuqian's smile vanished instantly, and she froze.
She stared wide-eyed at Li Menghan in utter disbelief.
She asked, somewhat stammering:
"Huh? What did you say?"
Li Menghan looked at her and repeated what she had just said very clearly:
"I said, we're breaking up. You can get out of my car now."
Dai Yuqian could not accept this result at all.
Her first thought was that Li Menghan's father must have put pressure on him.
She reached out again and grabbed Li Menghan's arm, saying anxiously:
"It's okay, Menghan. I know your father definitely won't approve of us being together. But we can face your father together."
"I believe that as long as we're truly together and things go well, your dad will eventually agree! Don't break up with me because of your dad's pressure!"
Upon hearing these words, Li Menghan forcefully shook off Dai Yuqian's hand.
He said loudly:
"This has nothing to do with my father! I'm the one who wanted to break up with you!"
"I don't want to be with a fickle woman like you. Alright, get off the bus now. I have to go to school, and I don't have time to waste with you."
When Dai Yuqian heard the words "fickle and promiscuous," her face turned extremely pale.
When Dai Yuqian heard the words "fickle and promiscuous," her face turned extremely pale.
She knew something was wrong.
But she didn't want to get off the bus at all; she kept begging Li Menghan.
She began to wipe away her tears, sobbing as she said:
"Menghan, don't be like this. There must be some misunderstanding!"
"I am not a promiscuous woman at all. Even if I was deceived by Song Hao before, I never did anything to betray you."
"Please believe me, okay? You're the only one in my heart!"
However, Li Menghan has now completely seen through her true colors.
He had seen those photos; he knew Dai Yuqian was lying.
Li Menghan was no longer going to indulge her.
Without saying another word, he opened the car door and got out.
Then, Li Menghan walked around the front of the car and went to the passenger side.
He forcefully opened the passenger door, reached out and grabbed Dai Yuqian's arm, pulling her out of the car.
Dai Yuqian stood by the roadside, still crying.
Li Menghan looked at her and said in an icy tone:
"You don't need to explain. I don't care at all what kind of person you are now."
"I only care about how I see you. In my heart, you're a woman who would sell herself for money. It's completely over between us."
After saying this, Li Menghan turned around and got into the car.
He closed the car door and stepped on the gas.
With a loud roar, the red Ferrari drove off.
On the street, only Dai Yuqian remained standing there, wiping away her tears.
"Waaaaah... Menghan, you must have misunderstood me..."
Dai Yuqian stared at the direction the car drove away, crying loudly.
She stood outside for a while and realized that Li Menghan really hadn't come back to pick her up.
She could only turn around dejectedly, go upstairs, and return to her room.
Dai Yuqian sat on the bed, her mind a jumble of thoughts.
She carefully recalled what Li Menghan had just said.
Li Menghan said she was fickle and promiscuous, and her attitude was so firm.
It was only then that Dai Yuqian realized that Li Menghan had likely discovered what had happened in the bar, in Song Hao's car, and in the hotel room.
If Li Menghan hadn't discovered those things, she would never have been so ruthless to her.
That's why he was so decisive in pulling her out of the car and breaking up with her.
However, Dai Yuqian thought to herself.
Why? Why did Li Menghan discover those things?
Those things should never have been known to Li Menghan!
Dai Yuqian's mind became increasingly chaotic.
However, there was always a string tightly taut in her heart.
That is, she absolutely cannot lose Li Menghan.
She knew very well that Li Menghan was now a very wealthy second-generation heir.
As long as she can marry Li Menghan, she can live the life of buying designer bags every day and driving a sports car.
This was the only way for her to achieve upward social mobility and enter the life of the wealthy.
She absolutely cannot give up like this.
She had to come up with a way to win Li Menghan back.
Even if it meant relentless pursuit, she was determined to stay by Li Menghan's side.
