The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot -
Chapter 375 - Chapter 375 Chapter 345 Return to the Rightful Owner
Chapter 375: Chapter 345: Return to the Rightful Owner Chapter 375: Chapter 345: Return to the Rightful Owner After class, Zhong Niangyao declined Lu Yichen’s invitation and returned to the Zhong Family.
Early that morning, grandfather had already instructed that everyone must come home for dinner because tonight, Zhong Jinghao was bringing his girlfriend over for dinner.
Not only her, but Zhong Mengxuan had also been called back. Although dissatisfied with all of Zhong Mengxuan’s actions, they hadn’t yet expelled her from the family, so on such occasions, it was necessary to call her back.
This was also a show of respect for Zhong Jinghao’s girlfriend.
Upon arriving at the Zhong Family, Zhong Jinghao had not yet brought his girlfriend back. However, Zhong Mengxuan had already returned home early.
When she saw Zhong Niangyao, she immediately scoffed in disdain.
Zhong Niangyao did not indulge Zhong Mengxuan, simply ignoring her and walking past to leave. However, Zhong Mengxuan was unwilling to let her go.
“What, Zhong Niangyao, are you feeling guilty?” Zhong Mengxuan stepped forward, blocking Zhong Niangyao’s path, “You harmed me, so now you dare not face me, is that it?”
Looking at Zhong Mengxuan’s righteous demeanor, Zhong Niangyao was at a loss for words, “Zhong Mengxuan, if you want to go crazy, then go back to your own room. Don’t bite people here.”
“Dare to do but not admit!” Zhong Mengxuan scoffed, “Wasn’t it you who instigated Third Master Lu and Chenran to say those words? You did all this just to break up me and Chenran, didn’t you? Let me tell you, it’s impossible. Chenran likes me, even if he has to temporarily go back to Long Jiarui under pressure, his heart is still with me. All your scheming will come to nothing in the end.”
“Zhong Mengxuan, do you know what you look like right now?” Zhong Niangyao couldn’t help but laugh, “You look like a joke. First, clear up that I am not your love rival, and you don’t need to flaunt yourself in front of me. I’m not interested in your affairs.”
“You’re just jealous of me.” Zhong Mengxuan glared at Zhong Niangyao fiercely, “If not, why would you be so desperate to ruin my happiness?”
“Your happiness has nothing to do with me.” Zhong Niangyao glanced at Zhong Mengxuan, “Also, stop provoking me. I don’t have so much time to deal with you. Chasing me around like a mad dog every time is really annoying. If you don’t change your ways in the future, don’t blame me for pulling out your teeth.”
“You actually dare to call me a dog.”
Zhong Mengxuan was almost driven mad. She raised her hand intending to slap Zhong Niangyao. However, before her slap landed, her wrist was firmly controlled by a gentle grasp.
That grip was not from someone else, it was Zhong Niangyao. Using all her strength, she couldn’t shake off Zhong Niangyao’s hand.
Suddenly, Zhong Niangyao let go, then with a backhand, she delivered a loud slap to Zhong Mengxuan.
“Slap–”
The crisp sound of the slap, and Zhong Mengxuan felt a burning pain on her cheek. In an instant, her whole being was stunned, completely unprepared for this to happen.
“You dare to hit me?” Zhong Mengxuan’s tone was full of disbelief.
“If I hit you, I hit you, do I need to apply for permission?” Zhong Niangyao looked at Zhong Mengxuan, scoffing, “Didn’t you just want to hit me too? I’m just returning the favor. Let me tell you, this is the first time, but it won’t be the last. If you provoke me again, I will still hit you.”
Looking at Zhong Niangyao’s arrogant manner, Zhong Mengxuan was so enraged she almost went mad. She wanted to rush forward and fight Zhong Niangyao, but just as she took a step, she inadvertently saw the bracelet on Zhong Niangyao’s wrist, and her face suddenly paled.
“This… this bracelet…”
Zhong Niangyao knew what Zhong Mengxuan had seen. She smiled mischievously, meaningfully saying, “How about it, do you like the bracelet?”
“Why is this bracelet still on your wrist?” Zhong Mengxuan’s voice turned slightly panicked, “This–”
“Isn’t it normal for this bracelet to be on my wrist?” Zhong Niangyao spoke with deep significance, “This was left by my mom for my dad, now that I have it, isn’t it only right and proper?”
Since she got that bracelet last time, she had been wearing it on her wrist. Firstly, since the item was left by her biological parents, it was natural for her to wear it. Secondly, by letting the bracelet see the light, perhaps someone would recognize it! Though such a possibility was small.
Whether Zhong Mengxuan would see it or what her reaction would be after seeing it was not within her consideration.
After all, it belonged to her. Zhong Mengxuan might have stolen it, but that didn’t make it hers.
Zhong Mengxuan spoke impulsively, “This shouldn’t be on your wrist, This is–”
“Is this what you hid away, planning to use one day to threaten me?” Zhong Niangyao interjected directly, “That’s really unfortunate, now the item has returned to its rightful owner. You’ve also lost a valuable bargaining chip, such a pity.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” A hint of guilt flashed in Zhong Mengxuan’s eyes, “I just thought your bracelet looked quite unique, so I took a few extra looks.”
Even if she had such intentions, she definitely couldn’t admit it.
However, at this moment, her heart was indeed panicking. Worried about the loss of the item, she had clearly taken it to the villa. But why could Zhong Niangyao get it now?
Could it be that a maid in the villa had been bribed, and therefore helped Zhong Niangyao steal it?
Another important point was, how did Zhong Niangyao know this bracelet was hidden by her? And what else about her secrets did Zhong Niangyao know?
“Hehe, whatever you say.” Zhong Niangyao’s lips curled into a ruthless smile, “Zhong Mengxuan, the item is mine, so I’ve taken it back.”
“In the future, don’t randomly provoke me. I’m not someone you can afford to provoke. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not considering our shared last name Zhong when I take action against you.”
Looking at Zhong Niangyao’s icy gaze, Zhong Mengxuan shivered.
It was at this moment she truly understood something–Zhong Niangyao had completely changed from before. If she provoked her again in the future, Zhong Niangyao would certainly not show mercy.
