Chapter 313: Chapter 313: Meeting the Scum Man from Past Life Again_1

"Miss He, we meet again!" By mere coincidence, the moment Lan Song took his seat, he found himself sitting next to He Zhilan. Seeing her, Lan Song greeted her with the same enthusiasm as their first meeting, "I wanted to greet you after our last meeting, but never found a chance!"

He Zhilan answered with a hint of a smile. Lan Song seemed to have grown accustomed to her reserved nature. After all, she behaved similarly when she was with Lin Chan. Just then, the person sitting next to Lan Song returned from the restroom and noticed Lan Song speaking with the young woman next to Gu En, so he inquired, "Lan Song, you know her? Aren’t you going to introduce us?"

The familiar voice almost led He Zhilan to believe she was hallucinating.

The warm and gentle man, his soothing voice reminiscent of a gentle spring breeze, gave He Zhilan an eerily déjà vu feeling.

As she raised her eyes towards the man who just sat down, his face — simultaneously familiar yet alien to her —, stripped He Zhilan of any ability to maintain her fake smile.

It was him!

The man, who in her previous life poisoned her with arsenic-laced syrup, deceived her emotionally, labeled her a seductress, blamed all his sins on her, and stood meekly behind his mistress while watching her getting beaten up!

"Oh, this is He Zhilan, a good friend of Miss Gu and the ’adopted’ sister of Lin Chan and his friends. They are very protective of her. I heard that He Zhilan’s brother serves in the military and was Xing Ye’s comrade before his retirement and is now Lan Li’s brother-in-arms. Her brother is highly esteemed and has a promising future," Lan Song continued, "Her brother even saved Lan Li’s life this time around."

"I see! Miss He, nice to meet you! My name is Liu Jiang. I’m just a humble faculty member at the teacher’s college." Clearly, Lan Song’s introduction had aroused Liu Jiang’s interest in He Zhilan.

"Pfft, your teacher’s college is nothing compared to Miss He, she is an intellectual, studying at Capital University!" Lan Song ridiculed Liu Jiang.

Liu Jiang’s face fell a little at Lan Song’s mockery but he managed to maintain his polite demeanor, "That’s impressive! It’s rare to find such an attractive and high-status woman who also values education as Miss He!"

He Zhilan remained silent, constantly smiling from the moment she snapped back to reality, until her lips almost lost all sensation from smiling non-stop.

There was a moment when she wanted to stand up, throw her drink in the hypocritical Liu Jiang’s face, and slap him for his deception and manipulation in her past life!

After her rebirth, He Zhilan had never thought she would encounter Liu Jiang this early and it was even more surprising for him to appear in her world so soon. In her previous life, at this age, she had yet to meet Liu Jiang. Back then, He Zhilan was still trying to survive in the capital city, attempting to find a respectable job that could support her with her high school education. At that time, she was just starting to endure the hardships of life.

Seeing that He Zhilan wasn’t really engaging in conversation with Liu Jiang, Lan Song seemed somewhat pleased. Only being a small businessman and lacking academic prowess compared to Liu Jiang, as a man, how could he bear to lose face in front of a woman?
