The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 545 - Chapter 545 Chapter 545 Intrusion

Chapter 545: Chapter 545: Intrusion Chapter 545: Chapter 545: Intrusion Madam Meng turned around and looked at her husband and son, trying to discern something from their expressions.

Mr. Meng and Rui Kai involuntarily dodged her probing gaze.

At that time, after Rui Kai returned home, he did mention Nianyao’s request to Mr. Meng.

Although Mr. Meng also loved his daughter Meng Rou, he couldn’t possibly abandon the business empire he had built over many years just for one daughter.

He couldn’t give up everything for Meng Rou; hence, after hearing Rui Kai’s words, he didn’t hesitate to refuse. He also instructed Rui Kai not to tell Madam Meng about this matter.

Rui Kai wasn’t surprised by Mr. Meng’s decision.

It was because he understood Mr. Meng’s character that he brought up the matter.

Now that Nianyao had suddenly revealed this matter, it truly caught them off guard.

Seeing the expressions on Mr. Meng and Rui Kai, Madam Meng immediately understood that the father and son were definitely hiding something from her. She immediately began to interrogate them, determined to get to the bottom of it.

As for the upheaval about to occur in the Meng Family, Nianyao was utterly uninterested. Holding Lu Yichen’s hand, she gracefully left the Meng Family.

“You say, after knowing about this matter, what kind of reaction will Meng Rou’s mother have?” Nianyao chuckled, “Her own husband and son hiding such an important matter from her, what must she be feeling?”

“No matter the reaction, it will surely calm down in the end,” Lu Yichen hit the nail on the head.

“True,” Nianyao nodded in agreement. “She has already lost a daughter, she can’t lose her husband and son over this! Besides, even if she knew about this issue initially, she would have made the same choice.”

She didn’t believe that Madam Meng would be noble enough to spend all of the Meng Family’s fortune to save Meng Rou.

At that moment in the Meng Family, Madam Meng also learned about the whole incident from Rui Kai’s mouth. Then, she fell silent, feeling somewhat at a loss for words.

In her heart, there was some resentment toward her husband and son for not wanting to save their daughter’s life because of money.

But when her husband asked her if she would be willing to live in poverty after Meng Rou recovered, where she could no longer wear luxurious clothes, enjoy delicacies, or even may have to work for a living, she fell into silence, unable to respond. Deep down, she was unwilling.

Soon, the Meng Family regained its calm.

However, the people of the Meng Family didn’t know that heavy yin energy prevents the gathering of yang energy. Long-term residence in such a place can make people feel exhausted and unable to concentrate. Naturally, their luck would start to decline.

From the death of Meng Rou, it was fated that the Meng Family would begin to decline.

After leaving the Meng Family, Nianyao was in no mood either. She did not sympathize with Meng Rou; everything that happened to Meng Rou today was self-inflicted. However, she felt sorry for the ghost baby, which was exploited before it even had a consciousness, and its only fate was to end up nothing but ashes. Even if she wanted to save it, there was no way.

Perhaps sensing Nianyao’s low spirits, Lu Yichen comforted her for a bit before taking her home.

He wasn’t worried about Nianyao, for he understood her well and knew that with her personality, she would soon bounce back.

Upon returning to the Zhong Family, Nianyao did not immediately go to her room; instead, she went to sit in the garden, quietly reflecting.

Fate wouldn’t allow her the peace she desired. Shortly after she sat down, she heard a commotion from outside.

Frowning and before she could understand what was happening, she saw a figure hurriedly walking in, followed by Uncle Wu with an anxious expression, accompanied by two security personnel from the house.

The person who rushed in was none other than Zhong Mengxuan.

At this moment, Zhong Mengxuan lacked her usual confident and arrogant appearance; sweat was visible on her forehead, and her clothes were wrinkled, making her look nothing like the dignified lady of a prominent family.

Previously, Old Sir Zhong had already made it clear, instructing Zhong Mengxuan not to return to the Zhong Family.

Since then, whether it was because she didn’t want to upset Old Sir Zhong, or because she really didn’t consider herself a part of the Zhong Family anymore, Zhong Mengxuan truly hadn’t visited once.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Mengxuan showed up today. Moreover, her appearance suggested she had barged in forcibly.

Nianyao didn’t even consider standing up; she continued sitting quietly, watching the intruding Zhong Mengxuan with an expressionless face.

Soon, Zhong Mengxuan approached where Nianyao was sitting, even appearing somewhat out of breath.

“Miss Mengxuan.”

Uncle Wu also hurried over, stopping and looking at Zhong Mengxuan with furrowed brows, “Old Sir instructed that you shouldn’t enter, please leave, don’t make this difficult for me.”

He was also in a tough spot, not knowing what would be best to do.

Just now, Zhong Mengxuan had barged in directly. As soon as she entered, she began shouting loudly, saying she wanted to find Miss Nianyao.

He naturally tried to stop her.

Old Sir had already made it clear that without his permission, Zhong Mengxuan was not to step into the Zhong Family house. However, as Zhong Mengxuan was Old Sir Zhong’s granddaughter and the daughter of Mr. Zhong, he, merely an employee, didn’t dare to take any drastic measures.

Later, taking advantage of his inattention, Zhong Mengxuan directly ran to the garden.

“This is between me and Zhong Nianyao, it’s none of your concern,” Zhong Mengxuan glared at Uncle Wu, speaking mercilessly. “In the end, you’re nothing but a dog raised by our Zhong Family. What, you want to stop your master too?”

“I’ll tell you, even if grandfather doesn’t let me come home now, it doesn’t change the fact that my surname is Zhong, and it certainly doesn’t change the fact that I am his blood-related granddaughter.”

Listening to Zhong Mengxuan’s ruthless words, Uncle Wu’s complexion remained unchanged; he still lowered his head and spoke politely, “Miss Mengxuan, please leave.”

Zhong Mengxuan didn’t even glance at Uncle Wu, maintaining a dismissive demeanor.

Meanwhile, Nianyao furrowed her brows and spoke, “Mengxuan, you came back today just to make a scene, is that it? It seems you have completely disregarded grandpa’s words.”
