Mr. Bigshot Is Obsessed with His Hidden-Marriage Wife
Chapter 87: Trash Deserves the Trash Bin

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Trash Deserves the Trash Bin

"This is impossible," the crowd was still discussing how formidable the district police forensic scientists were when a sudden cry once again drew everyone’s attention.

Pei Ye stared at Meng Tian with disbelief, as if he had never known her, his eyes a mix of familiarity and strangeness.

"Meng Tian, how could you possibly be Mr. Meng’s daughter?" Pei Ye ignored the curious gazes of the onlookers and strode towards her.

Ye Yan, fearing he might do something impulsive, was about to shield Meng Tian when she pressed her hand on his shoulder.

She shook her head at her friend and calmly met Pei Ye’s frenzied gaze.

"I know you still love me and don’t want to marry Yaoyao, but you wouldn’t stoop to such despicable means. How did you convince Mr. Meng to pretend to be your father? Yes, you both share the surname Meng..."

A glass of wine was flung in Pei Ye’s face, splashing back the rest of his words.

Meng Tian placed her wine glass on the bar, pulled out a tissue, and wiped her hands, "Pei Ye, you’re truly disgusting. How shameless must you be to think I could still love you? I not only have no love for you, but now, even thinking that I once dated you makes me want to slap myself twice. My dad was right; I should thank you, thank Xia Mengyao. Trash like you belongs in the waste station."

Pei Ye, as if sobered up by the splash of wine, stared with wide eyes, letting the alcohol drip down from his meticulously groomed hair.

"But you always dress so plainly, never set foot in luxury stores, and don’t wear any expensive accessories," Pei Ye tried to find evidence that Meng Tian was not the daughter of the Meng Family.

"Because I’m a police officer," Meng Tian frowned, "I’m not in the force to flaunt wealth, and I don’t need to be decked out in jewels to go to work."

"You’re lying to me, Meng Tian, you’re deceiving me. You’re the daughter of the Meng Family but never once said so. You’ve never considered me your boyfriend."

Meng Tian looked at the man before her, whose ugliness was fully exposed, a chill smile on her lips: "I’ve told you, but you never believed."

Pei Ye searched his memory, his face turning pale.

There was a time when both of them saw Meng Yusheng being interviewed on TV, and she said then, "That’s my dad."

He didn’t believe it at the time and even ridiculed her in his heart for her unrealistic thinking.

She’d mentioned it more than once until one time he got annoyed and accused her of being vain, of living in a fantasy.

A forensic scientist like her who deliberates over buying a single dress, how could she be Meng Yusheng’s daughter.

It turned out to be true; she hadn’t lied to him.

"That day I bumped into you and Xia Mengyao having an affair in the hospital, I was actually planning to formally introduce you to my parents." Meng Tian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, thankfully, she hadn’t found out too late. If she’d discovered his true nature after getting married, today’s scene would have been her fate.

Yao Huan and Yao Fangsheng also took a while to process what had happened.

They thought Meng Yusheng’s visit was just for show, but it turned out to be a scene-smashing event.

Those who were just considering strengthening their cooperation with the Yao family all stepped back, afraid of being misunderstood as having ties with the Yao family.

They originally thought the Meng Family was the Yao family’s benefactor, not realizing they were enemies.

"The Yao family’s granddaughter stealing the Meng Family’s daughter’s boyfriend?"

"The Yao family is really bold, isn’t there anyone they wouldn’t dare to steal from?"

"It’s okay to steal, but to send an invitation as a provocation, wanting to see the other party be embarrassed?"

"The Meng family has only this one daughter, treasured like the apple of their eye, how could they tolerate such an insult?"

"I guess it’s over for the Yao family this time; the Meng family will definitely not let this go."

"The Yao family has been teetering on the brink of collapse in recent years, and the Meng family could’ve been the final straw that broke the camel’s back with just a little push."

Yao Fangsheng felt a buzzing in his head as he listened to the whispers around him and, without a word, he strode up to Xia Mengyao and slapped her across the face.

The slap caught Xia Mengyao off guard, and she was sent sprawling to the ground.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Yao Huan, protective of her daughter, hurried to lift her from the floor.

"What am I doing? Don’t you know what she has done? It’s one thing to steal someone else’s boyfriend, but to steal the boyfriend of the eldest Miss of the Meng family..." Yao Fangsheng, red in the face with rage, exclaimed, "The Yao family will be ruined by her!"

Xia Mengyao’s mouth filled with a metallic sweetness; Yao Fangsheng had used all his strength in that slap. Her right ear felt as if it had been pricked by a needle, and amidst the pain, it seemed as if many bees were buzzing inside, making the noise from the outside world gradually indistinct.

She stared blankly at Pei Ye, who was urgently explaining something to Meng Tian, his tone desperate and his demeanor ingratiating.

"Tiantian, I’m sorry, it was my fault before. It was Xia Mengyao who seduced me, she drugged my drink," Pei Ye tried to grab Meng Tian’s hand but she stepped back, avoiding him as if he were something unclean.

"Tiantian, can you forgive me? I just made a mistake that any man in the world could make, but the person I truly love is only you." Pei Ye adopted a deeply affectionate expression, "I didn’t know you were the eldest Miss of the Meng family. My being with Xia Mengyao was only to climb higher, so that I could give you a better life."

The people around, upon hearing these words, were completely shattered in their worldview.

How could there be such a shameless man in this world, capable of turning treachery and opportunism into something so natural and effortless?

The Meng family was indeed very lucky, for having avoided such a disgrace.

"What did you say, Pei Ye?" Xia Mengyao got up from the ground and rushed over to slap Pei Ye, "You son of a bitch, now that you know she’s the eldest Miss of the Meng family, you’re stepping on me, huh? Who was the one groveling like a dog to me, calling Meng Tian a woman of loose morals, a poor cop, a destitute person only fit for shopping at street stalls..."

After being slapped on the face, Pei Ye became even angrier at the sight of Xia Mengyao.

If it hadn’t been for Xia Mengyao, he might have been married to Meng Tian by now, and, as the only daughter of the Meng family, he would have been the future heir to the family’s wealth.

Thinking of the wealth and influence of the Meng family, Pei Ye felt like he had lost the best opportunity of his life.

Slap!

He returned Xia Mengyao’s slap without mercy.

"You wench, it’s all because you seduced me."

"You dare to hit me? I’m going to fight you right now."

The scene suddenly descended into chaos, as guests instinctively retreated, leaving the center stage for the Yao family and Pei Ye to continue their drama.

Fighting, pulling apart, shouting and crying—it was even more lively than a TV drama.

Meng Tian looked coldly at these clownish people, took Ye Yan’s hand and said, "Ah Yan, let’s go."

Meng Tian had not forgotten the grudge of Xia Mengyao causing Ye Yan to need stitches with the broken bottle.

She hadn’t wanted to come; it was Xia Mengyao and Pei Ye who took the initiative to send her an invitation, wanting her to "witness" their happiness; they had gone too far in insulting her and making baseless speculations, she wanted to step back, but they kept pushing her relentlessly.

Now, she had shown them clearly. It wasn’t her who was clinging desperately to Pei Ye; it was that Pei Ye simply wasn’t worthy.

Meng Yusheng had booked a private room at a nearby restaurant, knowing that the banquet food was definitely off the table now.

No sooner had Meng Tian sat down than she saw Meng Yusheng stand up to welcome someone out.

It seemed he had invited other guests as well.

The kind of guest that Meng Yusheng would personally see to...
