The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 394 - Chapter 394 Chapter 394 Casual Family Talk

Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Casual Family Talk Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Casual Family Talk After everything that needed to be said was said, everyone dispersed.

In fact, the main reason everyone had gathered together this time was just to discuss Zhong Mengfan’s affair. Everyone had known what was going to develop well before Zhong Mengfan went abroad to have her child.

Still, some things had to be emphasized that must be emphasized. This matter was a secret of their Zhong Family, related to their family’s face. If it got out, everyone would be disgraced.

Throughout, Zhong Niangyao had not said a word and had simply sat there with an indifferent attitude as if she were just a mascot.

After everyone had left, Zhong Niangyao didn’t plan on staying and lifted her feet to go upstairs.

However, just as she got up, she was called out to.

“Nianyao, do you have time for a chat?” Zhong Mengfan stepped forward, smiling at Zhong Niangyao and spoke, “It won’t take much of your time, and we haven’t seen each other for so long, sitting down for a chat between sisters is only right.”

Zhong Niangyao glanced at Zhong Mengxuan, who was also left behind, then at Zhong Mengfan, who was entirely different than before, almost reborn. After thinking for a while, she nodded her head.

Some time later, in the garden–

The three Zhong sisters leisurely sat there, something that had rarely been seen before. But anyone who approached would find the atmosphere among the three to be somewhat eerie.

Zhong Niangyao sat there, leisurely holding a teacup, sipping tea.

Zhong Mengxuan, on the other hand, had an impatient look on her face, as if she couldn’t wait to leave immediately, yet she still sat there without any intention of leaving.

Zhong Mengfan had a smile on her face and overall looked much more composed than before, completely lacking her previous frivolity.

“Who would have thought, the three of us sisters would still have the chance to sit together and chat over tea!” Zhong Mengfan put down her teacup, unable to help herself from remarking, “The situation right now feels really dream-like!”

“Zhong Mengfan, you are indeed dreaming!” Zhong Mengxuan’s mouth curved up in a sarcastic smile, “Or should I say, you wish everything was just a dream! When you wake up, you’ll still be the Zhong Mengfan who has never had a child.”

Since the past, she and Zhong Mengfan had never gotten along. Now that she had gotten ahold of Zhong Mengfan’s weakness, how could she not trample on it relentlessly!

Zhong Mengfan’s face flushed with embarrassment for a moment, but she quickly recovered with a slight smile and continued, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. However, Mengxuan, I hope you haven’t forgotten what Grandpa just said. And–”

“Now, Grandpa is already very disappointed in you. If some gossip starts from your mouth, I suppose Grandpa will be even more disappointed!”

Although she was not at the Zhong Family’s home, she still knew about some of the things that had happened in the Zhong Family during that time. Naturally, she was also aware of the things Zhong Mengxuan had done and how Grandpa had said he would no longer intervene in Zhong Mengxuan’s affairs.

“You–” Zhong Mengxuan was furious, pointing at Zhong Mengfan, but could not come up with any words to retort.

“Mengxuan, the reason I asked to talk to you is that I don’t want us to be at odds like we were before.” Zhong Mengfan looked at Zhong Mengxuan and continued, “After all, there is no deep enmity between us, nor are we on opposing sides. So, I won’t meddle in what you do. Likewise, I hope you won’t interfere with my affairs.”

“Heh, Zhong Mengfan, so you’re afraid I’ll spill all the things you’ve done!” Zhong Mengxuan said, understanding at last, her tone dripping with satisfaction, “Then you better please me, maybe then I’ll forget all about those things you did before.”

“If you want to talk, feel free,” Zhong Mengfan remained unfazed, “But before you do, think about how you will face Grandpa’s wrath!”

Watching Zhong Mengfan’s defiant attitude, Zhong Mengxuan was so furious she couldn’t contain it. With a cold snort, she stood up and left directly.

Zhong Niangyao, who had been watching the drama from the side, couldn’t help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly.

Although she didn’t know what Zhong Mengfan had gone through abroad, it was clear that such experiences had truly transformed her entirely.

If it were the old Zhong Mengfan, sitting here and chatting peacefully would have been impossible.

“Why are you staring at me like that?” Zhong Mengfan withdrew her gaze and then turned her head to look at Zhong Niangyao, “Is there something on my face?”

“Nothing.” Zhong Niangyao gently shook her head and then spoke with a teasing tone, “I just think that you’ve changed quite a lot after this period!”

“After going through so much, if I hadn’t changed, my future life would probably be ruined.”

At this point, Zhong Mengfan laughed self-deprecatingly and then changed the subject, “By the way, speaking of which, I haven’t had the chance to congratulate you yet! Nianyao, I really didn’t see it coming, you and Third Young Master Lu would end up together.”

Previously, when she heard that Zhong Niangyao was actually with Lu Yichen, she doubted if her ears had malfunctioned and she had heard wrong.

It was unexpected: she had been away for just a short time, and it seemed as if the entire Zhong Family went through a dramatic change. Especially the attitude of her brother, which had taken her by surprise.

She had always known her brother was a very aloof person; even when facing her, his own sister, he was not particularly warm.

But upon her return, she found that her indifferent brother, when talking about Zhong Niangyao, actually showed some admiration, and had even acknowledged Zhong Niangyao as his sister.

Such changes made her feel uneasy.

Zhong Niangyao was unaware of Zhong Mengfan’s inner thoughts. She looked at Zhong Mengfan, then spoke, “So? Did you call me here just to chat about this?”

“No,” Zhong Mengfan shook her head and after thinking a moment, she said, “Nianyao, you won’t go around talking about my matters, will you?”

“You couldn’t possibly want to talk to me about just these things, could you!” Zhong Niangyao shook her head lightly, finding it amusing, “Rest assured, I’m not one of those gossipmongers. And besides, I don’t want to make Grandpa and the others worry.”

“Zhong Mengfan, whatever you want to say, just say it directly! There’s no need to beat around the bush here. We’re not exactly in a relationship where we can chat about family matters, are we?”
