By accident, Qiao Wanwan got entangled with a powerful man who had come back to life from death and was disabled.
Qiao Wanwan: "Can't you see I'm a cripple?"
The powerfu...
Zhan Jingting's face, which had been expressionless, suddenly changed upon hearing the last sentence, instantly exuding a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine!
"What right do you have to compare yourself to my wife, huh?"
Meng Xinyi was startled, and then a look of grievance spread across her beautiful face.
She had rehearsed and polished these words in her mind countless times. She always thought that Zhan Jingting would be moved when he heard these sincere words, but she did not expect this reaction!
Xiang Yang said, "Miss Meng, you really are a person without any values or bottom line. Master Zhan is right, you are no match for my boss at all."
"Putting aside the fact that Master Zhan's affection for my boss is unwavering, even if their relationship isn't good, your behavior is still shameful. Go ask around on the street, and everyone who hears this will curse you."
"I rarely curse women, but at this moment, after hearing what you said, all I can say is, you are really despicable."
Meng Xinyi pursed her lips, her face flushing red and then turning pale, but her tone remained firm. "When I made this decision, I already expected that people would curse me. Calling me cheap would be the least of my worries, right? I've thought of even worse things."
“But as I just said, I don’t live for the opinions of the world. How you see me is your business. As long as I don’t care, it has nothing to do with me. I love Zhan Ye, and I’m willing to endure anything for him. This little bit of humiliation is nothing to me, so go ahead and curse me!”
"Besides, it's normal for a man of Zhan's status and position to have many women outside. Go out and look at those rich people who are not as rich as him, which one of them doesn't have women outside? I love Zhan, I don't want a title or money, I just want to be with him, what's wrong with asking him to spare some time for me?"
Xiang Yang: "......"
He rarely got this angry. "You really are a hopeless case! I always thought your Meng family was a scholarly family, but I never expected your minds to be so filthy!"
Grandpa Meng's expression was also not good, but seeing Meng Xinyi's restrained face and the tears welling up in her eyes, his heart softened.
“Sir, you are right. Our Meng family has indeed lost all sense of morality and bottom line in this matter. But I would rather be scorned and have the reputation of the Meng family damaged than let my granddaughter be left behind.”
He took Meng Xinyi's hand, lifted her sleeve, and saw that her wrist was wrapped in layers of white gauze. "Master Zhan, without you, Xinyi really can't live. To beg me to agree, she didn't just starve herself, she cut her wrists to commit suicide."
"So, as long as she can live a good life, what do values matter? What do bottom lines matter? What does saving face matter?"
Meng Xinyi looked at Grandpa Meng with tears in her eyes, "Grandpa, thank you..."
Xiang Yang felt that his worldview was being challenged. "If in the future, my child threatens me with a wrist cut, saying she wants to become a mistress and interfere in someone else's marriage, I won't even need her to do it herself, I'll beat her to death with my own hands!"
Grandpa Meng took a deep breath, suppressing the sadness in his chest. "You don't understand my feelings for Xinyi. For her, I don't care about anything else."
"Have you said enough?" Zhan Jingting looked at them coldly. "If you've said enough, then get out."
"Yes, you should leave now," Xiang Yang urged them to leave. "Just hearing you say another word makes me feel nauseous."
Meng Xinyi looked at Zhan Jingting sadly, "I've told you so much, and all you're doing is letting me leave?"
"Otherwise what?" Xiang Yang interrupted, "Moved to tears, he'll just grant your wish and consummate your marriage? Miss Meng, are you daydreaming? You fell in love with Master Zhan at first sight, and he's going to accept you and grant your wish?"
"Then I really have to tell you, it's not your turn at all. There are so many women in this world who like Master Zhan and want to marry him that they could line up all the way overseas. You want to get ahead, right? Go get in line. Maybe it will be your turn in a few lifetimes."
"Also, you fell in love with Master Zhan at first sight, but Master Zhan didn't even notice you existed, let alone take a liking to you. No matter how much you like him, he could never reciprocate your feelings."
Meng Xinyi bit her lower lip tightly, on the verge of tears!
Grandpa Meng patted Meng Xinyi's hand. "Xinyi, go out first and let Grandpa have a few words with Young Master Zhan alone."
Meng Xinyi said worriedly, "Grandpa..."
"Don't worry," Grandpa Meng interrupted her before she could finish speaking. "Grandpa will definitely grant your wish. Listen to me, go out now."
"Alright." Meng Xinyi glanced at Zhan Jingting reluctantly before getting up to leave.
After Meng Xinyi left, Old Master Meng spoke up, "Actually, I knew this would be the outcome when I brought her here today, but there was nothing I could do. She made this choice, so she was destined to endure these humiliations, and there will be more and more of them in the future."
Xiang Yang chuckled, "So you brought her here to toughen her up first?"
"No, she loves Zhan Shao deeply, so naturally she wanted to express her feelings in person. I just didn't expect that Zhan Shao wouldn't be moved at all." Old Master Meng looked at Zhan Jingting. "Zhan Shao is very resourceful. He must already know that Xin Yi is not my granddaughter, but my biological daughter."
Xiang Yang said, "Even if she were your ancestor, our Master Zhan would never want her!"
Grandpa Meng sighed, "This child has a hard life. Her mother died when she was born. She was the woman I loved most in my life. She died before she was thirty, just to give birth to my child."
“Every time I see Xinyi, I think of the debt I owe to her mother, so I cherish Xinyi as my own life. From childhood to adulthood, I have given her whatever she wants.”
"Young Master Zhan, can't you really grant this old man's wish, can't you grant the wish of a girl who likes you so much?"
Zhan Jingting, who hadn't said much until now, sneered, "Absolutely impossible."
“Even if my wife never wakes up, I will never betray her. In your opinion, your daughter’s life is the most important thing. As long as she is alive, she can have anything she wants.” He closed his eyes. “But my wife and I are different. Although she is in a coma, I know that if she had a choice, she would also choose to uphold the bottom line of marriage and the bottom line of love.”
Grandpa Meng nodded and said, "Young Master Zhan, the more I get to know you, the more I feel that you are a trustworthy person. It's a real pity that you haven't been married for very long, right? If Xin Yi had met you earlier, maybe she would be your wife."
Zhan Jingting smiled faintly, "Impossible. The position of Mrs. Zhan will always belong to Qiao Wanwan, whether in the past, present, or future. It can only be her."
Grandpa Meng looked at him and said, "For the sake of your love, you won't consider my suggestion. What about family ties?"
"What's the meaning?"
Grandpa Meng smiled. "What if I told you I know the whereabouts of your other child? Would you still not accept my offer?"
