> Meteor Garden 2018 Recap
Dong Shancai said Daoming Si was like a puppy, and Daoming Si was very angry, with serious consequences. However, Feng Meizuo and Ximen Yan, as bystanders, also felt that Dong Shancai was a bit too "unyielding." Daoming Si had pursued her for so long, yet she still didn't seem moved at all. The next day, Dong Shancai rushed to school before her wound had fully healed.
Seeing that her wound wasn't bandaged, Huaze Lei quickly took out a bandage and put it on for her. Dong Shancai felt Huaze Lei's gentleness once again, but now she no longer had a feeling of being touched. Besides, he and Teng Tangjing should have overcome their difficulties by now. Just then, Daoming Si walked over. Huaze Lei tactfully left, leaving the rooftop to the two of them.
Daoming Si told Dong Shancai that next month was his birthday, which was a big event for the Daomming family. He demanded that Dong Shancai must attend, and he wanted to introduce Dong Shancai to his mother. Dong Shancai was startled. In her opinion, she wasn't even Daoming Si's girlfriend, so how could she rashly meet his mother? However, she still planned to attend Daoming Si's birthday party.
After all they had been through together, she still genuinely considered Daoming Si a friend in her heart. On the day of the birthday party, Dong Shancai wore her best dress, but compared to Huaze Lei and the others, she was still dressed too ordinarily. She didn't know that Daoming Si's birthday party wasn't just a simple banquet; it was also a channel for political and business elites to flatter the Daomming family.
And she was the first girl Daoming Si had brought back. Daoming Si's mother, the person in power of the Daomming family, would definitely pay extra attention to Dong Shancai and even be extremely picky. Therefore, Huaze Lei, Feng Meizuo, and Ximen Yan were very worried about Dong Shancai, fearing that she wouldn't pass Daoming Si's mother's test. They all took out various pieces of jewelry and accessories to adorn Dong Shancai. In the evening, Daoming Si's birthday banquet began.
As expected, it was luxurious and crowded with celebrities. Dong Shancai indeed looked a bit ordinary among the group of rich and beautiful women and tall and handsome men. She also felt that she didn't belong here. Daoming Si saw the slightly lonely and anxious Dong Shancai and quickly walked over to talk to her. But they hadn't said more than a few words before Daoming Si had to act as the host and receive guests.
Each of the celebrities brought rare and precious gifts, and after the banquet, Daoming Si would take these gifts for a charity auction. This was a common tactic used by the wealthy, which not only strengthened relationships between various family companies but also gained a reputation for philanthropy. After seeing off a few guests, Daoming Si wanted to take Dong Shancai to meet his mother.
Dong Shancai was a bit scared and didn't want to go, and during their tugging, Dong Shancai actually fell and knocked over a table. Just then, a noblewoman walked over, dressed in an expensive gown, with a beautiful, cold, and slightly sharp appearance. She was Daoming Si's mother - Daomming Feng. She walked up to Dong Shancai and coldly asked who she was, with no smile on her face.
Before Dong Shancai could answer, she ordered Daoming Si to "please" Dong Shancai out. Daoming Si refused because he intended to use this opportunity today to introduce Dong Shancai to her and hoped she could accept Dong Shancai. Daoming Si's mother still kept a cold face, and the atmosphere became tense. She pressed Dong Shancai, asking what her father did. Dong Shancai stammered, not knowing how to answer, but Huaze Lei said that Dong Shancai's father was a businessman abroad.
Ximen Yan and Feng Meizuo also chimed in, saying that Dong Shancai could play the piano. But such a clumsy lie couldn't deceive Daoming Si's mother. She immediately demanded that Dong Shancai play a piano piece to entertain everyone. Dong Shancai was forced to sit in front of the piano.
She played the only piano piece she knew, and then honestly told Daoming Si's mother that she was indeed not a lady from a famous family and didn't know how to play any musical instrument. Seeing his mother being aggressive, Daoming Si couldn't help but rush over to protect Dong Shancai. This scene made Daoming Si's mother even angrier. She warned Daoming Si not to be with Dong Shancai, but Daoming Si couldn't care less about that.
He was originally very afraid of his mother, but now that he had Dong Shancai, he had to protect her well. Daoming Si took Dong Shancai to an idle club owned by his family, right across from the Oriental Pearl Tower. Standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows, they could overlook the Huangpu River view. Dong Shancai apologized to Daoming Si, after all, it was because of her that his mother and son had argued.
But Daoming Si didn't mind, because his mother was usually engrossed in work and rarely cared about him; he didn't have much affection for her either. The night was beautiful. Dong Shancai and Daoming Si temporarily forgot the unpleasantness from earlier, leaning by the balcony, looking at the starry sky and the flickering neon lights. Regardless of the past and future, at least now they were happy.
On the other side, Huaze Lei, Feng Meizuo, and Ximen Yan were still shaken. Daoming Si's mother was too formidable; these three unruly young masters were all afraid of her. And after the scene tonight, Ah Si's mother would definitely dislike Dong Shancai. Daoming Si hugged Dong Shancai from behind and asked her if she had thought it through. As for his feelings, did she accept them or not?
Dong Shancai asked Daoming Si in return, she was clearly so ordinary, and there were so many excellent girls around him, why did he like her? Daoming Si touched Dong Shancai's head and said with a smile, maybe it was because he was blind. The two of them laughed together. Dong Shancai took out the birthday present she had given Daoming Si - homemade cookies. She had made them in the shape of Daoming Si.
They were clearly burnt cookies, but in Daoming Si's eyes, they were more precious than any treasure. Under the reflection of the neon lights, Daoming Si kissed Dong Shancai's cheek, and in his heart, he was even more determined about this girl. After this night, the feelings between Dong Shancai and Daoming Si seemed to have gotten closer, and Daoming Si was exceptionally happy. He carried the small cookies Dong Shancai made for him and showed them off everywhere.
Huaze Lei ate one and was almost choked by him. On the other side, Ah Si's mother secretly sent people to investigate Dong Shancai, finding out her family background and experiences clearly. It was obvious that she really disliked Dong Shancai. Then, accompanied by her assistant, she went to Dong Shancai's home. Dong Shancai's parents were still very happy and enthusiastic towards her, but their enthusiasm only deepened Ah Si's mother's dislike for Dong Shancai. She directly threw out a check for five million, telling Dong Shancai to leave Ah Si.
