Chapter 942: Real and fake Zhou Mengyao, all for fun

When Su Wanxing was intimately holding Lin Lang's arm and paying the bill at the cashier counter of the Li Hai Hotel, Wang Qian, who happened to be eating in the hotel lobby, inadvertently looked up and saw the figures of Su Wanxing and Lin Lang.

"Hey, Dayong, look, aren't those your high school classmates Zhou Mengyao and Brother Lang?"

Wang Dayong, who was having lunch with his girlfriend Wang Qian, heard the voice and looked sideways. He saw Lin Lang and Su Wanxing standing at the checkout counter paying the bill. He also mistakenly thought that Su Wanxing was Zhou Mengyao.

So, Wang Dayong, who was more friendly to Lin Lang than his own brother, stood up from his chair and called out, “Brother Lang!”

Lin Lang did not turn around after hearing Wang Dayong's voice. Instead, he followed the system prompt and immediately reminded Su Wanxing beside him in a low voice, "The boy behind me who is greeting me is Wang Dayong, my and Mengyao's high school classmate. He is a criminal police officer."

"The girl sitting at table number eight eating with Dayong is the daughter of Director Wang, who works for Dayong. She has just confirmed her relationship with Dayong. She and Dayong have been to Mengyao's house to play and eat. You have to say hello to Wang Qian."

Hearing Lin Lang's whispered instructions, Su Wanxing immediately became nervous, hurriedly let go of Lin Lang's arm, and began to mentally prepare herself to put herself in the role of Zhou Mengyao.

Wang Dayong thought that Lin Lang didn't hear him calling him, so he walked up to him and said, "Brother Lang, what a coincidence to meet you and Mengyao here."

Lin Lang turned around and smiled, "Hey, Dayong, you didn't go to work at the police station today?"

Wang Dayong smiled innocently and said, "I'm off work today, so I went with Qianqian to find a nice restaurant to have lunch."

Su Wanxing greeted him unnaturally: "Dayong, good afternoon!"

Wang Dayong looked at Su Wanxing, who looked exactly like Zhou Mengyao, and really had no suspicion at all. He smiled and said, "Mengyao, congratulations on winning glory for the country again and winning the US Pro Stock Women's Motorcycle Racing Championship."

Not only did Su Wanxing not know how to ride a motorcycle, she had never even heard of motorcycle racing in the United States. She could only squint her eyes and fake smile and said, "Thank you!"

At this moment, Wang Qian also came over with a smile and greeted politely, "Hello, Brother Lang."

Lin Lang joked: "It seems that it is true that women in love become more beautiful. Qianqian, your bright smile shows that you are well nourished by Dayong and love!"

Wang Qian laughed and said, "Brother Lang, you are still teasing me. Meng Yao's radiant appearance must be nourished by you and love, right?"

Su Wanxing smiled awkwardly and said, "Qianqian, judging from your expression of happiness, you really like Dayong."

Wang Qian took Wang Dayong's arm and said, "Dayong is not only filial and kind, but also very good to me. In his first year at the police force, he repeatedly solved major cases and made meritorious contributions. His appointment documents for promotion to deputy section chief were approved. Of course I like such an excellent boyfriend."

After hearing this, Lin Lang scolded, "Hey... Dayong, why didn't you tell me that you got promoted? Let's celebrate!"

Wang Dayong scratched his head and smiled innocently, "Brother Lang, I am only listed as a reserve cadre for key training and have become the reserve deputy captain of our detachment. I will be officially appointed as the deputy captain after our current deputy captain retires next month!"

Lin Lang patted Wang Dayong's shoulder happily and said with a smile: "It's just a matter of time. Your promotion to deputy captain is a foregone conclusion."

Wang Dayong laughed and said, "Brother Lang, I'll treat everyone tonight and set up a table. Let's have a drink to celebrate, brothers?!"

Lin Lang thought, "I still have to fight Su Wanxing for 300 rounds tonight, so I don't have time for this."

After reading it, Lin Lang declined politely: "Then Dayong, when we get your official appointment letter, we will go to your house to have dinner with your aunt to celebrate your promotion, so that she can be happy too."

Hearing that Lin Lang was thinking about his mother everywhere, Wang Dayong felt warm in his heart and said with a simple smile: "Okay, then it's settled. Mengyao, you have to come too."

Su Wanxing replied perfunctorily: "Okay."

Lin Lang was worried that Su Wanxing would be exposed if she said too much, so he looked at the cashier and said, "Pay the bill for table number eight in the hall together."

Wang Dayong quickly declined, “No need, Brother Lang, you and Mengyao can go your way. Qianqian and I haven’t finished eating yet, so you don’t need to pay for us!”

"Don't be polite to me in front of your sister-in-law. It seems like we are not close enough." Lin Lang handed the bank card to the female cashier without saying anything.

Wang Dayong joked, "Well, if I had known that Brother Lang was going to pay, I would have ordered a few more expensive dishes and ripped you off."

Lin Lang looked at the female cashier and said arrogantly, "Swipe the card and get two more bottles of your restaurant's most expensive imported red wine, and send them to table number eight."

"Yes, sir." The female cashier did as she was told.

After hearing this, Wang Dayong hurried forward to stop him and said, "No, no, Brother Lang, I was just kidding!"

"Why are you being so polite to each other? When you and Qianqian get married, I will give you a large flat as a wedding house." Lin Lang said it sincerely. Wang Qian, who was standing aside, couldn't help but be moved by the deep friendship between Lin Lang and Wang Dayong.

Wang Dayong was deeply moved after hearing this, and quickly declined, saying, "Brother Lang, I appreciate your kindness, but I absolutely cannot accept the wedding house you gave me."

"By the time Qianqian and I get married, I will have been officially promoted to deputy section chief."

"The housing allowance for deputy-section-level civil servants in Hai City is 70 square meters. If we sell our old house and buy a 100-square-meter house with three bedrooms and one living room, it will be enough for Qianqian, my mother and I to live together."

After hearing this, Lin Lang looked at Wang Qian and asked, "Qianqian is the daughter of a high-ranking official. Are you willing to live with your mother-in-law?"

Wang Qian took Wang Dayong's arm and said with a smile, "I'm willing! Dayong is filial, and Auntie is in poor health. If he lives with us, the two of us can take better care of Auntie."

After hearing this, Lin Lang said with relief: "That's right, Qianqian not only has a good personality, but she is also so well-behaved and sensible. Dayong, you really found a treasure. Just based on Qianqian's filial piety towards her future mother-in-law, if you treat Qianqian badly in the future, I will punish you."

Wang Dayong smiled and scratched his head: "Don't worry, Brother Lang, you don't know me well enough."

The female cashier handed over the printed transaction receipt and reminded: "Sir, please check the amount, enter the transaction password, and sign the receipt."

"Okay." Lin Lang swiped the card and took back the bank card.

At this moment, near the window in the hotel lobby, a table of young people were celebrating a birthday around a cake. Several high school girls were singing birthday songs, and their laughter was full of youthfulness.

Suddenly, the girl in the pink sweatshirt stopped holding the chopsticks in mid-air, staring straight at the cashier. The next second, she covered her mouth with her hands, and her scream sounded like a magnifying glass: "Oh my God! Look, isn't that Zhou Mengyao?!"

The girl in the birthday hat followed her gaze and turned around. When she saw Su Wanxing, she instantly jumped up from her chair and shouted louder than her companions: "It really is the motorcycle goddess Zhou Mengyao!"

The other two girls were also in a panic, frantically searching their bags for paper and pen, and didn't even notice that the cake cream had rubbed against their sleeves.

The four girls rushed towards Su Wanxing like a swarm of bees, their steps staggering a little, and they rushed to say, "Sister Mengyao! We are your fans! Can you give us an autograph?"

Su Wanxing was frightened by the scene and subconsciously shrank behind Lin Lang.

The fake smile on her face was as stiff as a mask. She hurriedly looked at Lin Lang beside her. She looked like a frightened deer, with all the signals of "what to do" for help.

Lin Lang, who had a strong psychological quality, smiled and reminded: "Mengyao, since you have met fans, then sign for them, just don't sign on a blank piece of paper."

Su Wanxing nodded reluctantly and took the notebook and pen handed to her by a girl.

Her fingertips were trembling slightly as she gripped the pen. She had no idea whether Zhou Mengyao's signature was flamboyant or neat and elegant. She could only rely on her usual elegant handwriting to write the three words "Zhou Mengyao" on the notebook stroke by stroke.

"Sister Mengyao, you were so cool when you were racing!" The girl in the birthday hat was so excited that she was incoherent, staring at Su Wanxing with sparkling eyes.

Su Wanxing's mind went blank and she could only vaguely wish her fans a happy birthday.

The high school girl who received Zhou Mengyao's celebrity autograph smiled sweetly and said excitedly: "Sister Mengyao's celebrity autograph is the most memorable birthday gift I have ever received!"

Su Wanxing squinted her eyes and smiled fakely, but the pen in her hand did not stop. She mechanically repeated the three words on the postcard handed to her by another girl, and sweat had already seeped out of her forehead.

Lin Lang helped to smooth things over and said to the girls with a smile, "Thank you for your support and love for Mengyao. Now that you have her autograph, go back and celebrate your birthday."

"Thank you Sister Mengyao!" Several little girls held the autographs as if they were treasures and ran back to their tables, looking back every few steps. Immediately, louder cheers broke out from the other side.

Su Wanxing finally breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Lin Lang with a look of relief at having survived the disaster.

Lin Lang calmly gave her a look that told her to "keep calm", but in his heart he was thinking that he had to take Su Wanxing away quickly, as who knows what might go wrong if he stayed any longer.

At this moment, several female high school students who had just returned to the dining table swarmed back again and surrounded Lin Lang like little fans.

The girl wearing the birthday hat was the first to ask, "Brother, you are the King of Shanghai, Lin Lang, right?"

Wang Dayong, who was standing nearby, said with a smile, "That's right, you little girls made a fortune today. You met two celebrities at once."

Several little girls cheered excitedly and rushed to ask Lin Lang for the star's autograph like little fans.

Their noisy chatter just happened to float into the ears of diners at the surrounding tables.

The people who were originally eating their own meals all looked up and looked curiously in the direction of the cash register. Some people even whispered excitedly because they recognized the star Zhou Mengyao.

In the huge hotel lobby, diners all cast inquiring glances over, and a hint of excitement gradually filled the air.

Lin Lang secretly thought that something was wrong, but he still had a gentle smile on his face. He took the pen and quickly signed his name on the notebook. As he wrote, he whispered, "I can sign, but you are at the age of studying. You can't let chasing stars delay your studies."

"Once you get into a good university, you'll have the confidence to do whatever you want in the future, okay?"

"I know, Brother Lin Lang! Hehehe..."

The girls nodded like chicks pecking at rice, holding the signed booklets, their cheeks flushed, and they couldn't hide the admiration in their eyes.

After quickly signing, Lin Lang returned the pen and, before anyone gathered around him, he looked at Wang Dayong and said, "Dayong, Mengyao and I are leaving first. If we don't leave now, we'll probably be surrounded. You and Qianqian can eat slowly, and we'll contact you later."

Wang Dayong also realized that the situation was getting out of control, and nodded quickly: "Okay, Brother Lang, you guys should leave quickly, and drive safely on the road."

Su Wanxing quickly nodded and said goodbye politely in Zhou Mengyao's tone: "Then we're leaving, Dayong, goodbye Qianqian."

"Bye Mengyao...Goodbye Brother Lang." Wang Qian and Su Wanxing waved goodbye.

Lin Lang didn't say anything more. He took Su Wanxing's wrist and walked towards the hotel entrance.

The two of them walked quickly through the hall, and they could faintly hear the diners talking behind them.

It was not until she pushed open the glass door and felt the wind from outside that Su Wanxing felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders, and her steps became lighter.

She looked back at the sign of the Longhai Hotel and said with lingering fear, "Finally I came out... Fortunately, I pretended to be Zhou Mengyao and didn't get caught."
