After Wei Siye came in, he also casually glanced around the house.

Of course, he didn't really come to visit. After all, that woman saved him once that day. Although he was a bastard, he never owed anyone a favor.

He wanted to find out who that person was.

He asked someone to check the people who attended the cocktail party that day, and there were three people who matched his description.

One was the servant there that day, and the other was the youngest daughter of the Chen family, but she was a bit fat, and you could tell it was not her just from a distance.

So he sent someone to send a letter yesterday to visit the Meng family mansion.

However, as soon as he entered the room, his attention was drawn to the servant who was staring at him. She looked thin and small, with dark skin, but even so, he recognized that she was the woman who saved him that night.

He did not recognize him immediately. After all, the person sent to kill him that night might be General Meng.

Meng Tianrui quickly asked everyone to sit down. "Young Marshal Wei, please take a seat and try my fine West Lake Longjing tea."

"Thank you very much."

Wei Siye looked away, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.

It is bitter like medicine, tasteless, and like the bitterness of life, making it hard to swallow. Why do these people have such a special liking for tea?

It's not as good as drinking wine, but it's like a sweet spring flowing down your throat, bringing endless pleasure and joy.

"Young Marshal Wei is used to drinking."

"good."

"I don't know why Young Marshal Wei came to Jianghai City this time. If you encounter any difficulties, please tell me and I will do my best to help."

Meng Tianrui has always been cunning and had known the reason why Wei Siye came to Jianghai City this time for a long time. He had arranged several assassinations, but they failed, so he saw Wei Siye here safe and sound.

His plan has not stopped, and he is still planning. He is speaking here so calmly.

Wei Siye was able to become the young marshal, so he was not just a man with brute force but no brains.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief Meng. I came here on a personal matter and didn't want to bother you, but our Commander-in-Chief said we must come and visit him."

"Okay, okay. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know."

"Thank you very much."

While they were still talking, the second concubine's daughter Meng Shuwan came back from outside.

She didn't know that there were guests coming today, so she went out early in the morning and came back before dinner time.

She walked in carrying a small bag and wearing a dress similar to Cheng Wanru's.

She didn't know her father would come today, and if she had known, she wouldn't have dared to do this.

After all, in a family like theirs, women's behavior should be more dignified.

"Shu Wan, how can you behave like this when guests are here?"

When she heard the sound, she looked over there and saw Wei Siye sitting on the sofa at first sight.

After realizing what was happening, he hurried over.

"Dad, who is this?"

Meng Tianrui had raised his daughter for so many years, so he naturally knew what she meant. A thought came to his mind: if Shu Wan could be with Wei Siye, then...

Wei Siye is a ruthless man, and he is the right-hand man of the Governor of Jingbei. With his understanding of Jingbei, if he can use his knowledge to his advantage, then taking over Jingbei will be just around the corner.

He suddenly changed his smile and called Meng Shuwan over. "Shuwan, come over and introduce him to you. This is the Young Marshal of Beijing North."

After that, he introduced her to Wei Siye. "Young Marshal Wei, this is my second daughter, Meng Shuwan. She's always naughty and loves getting into trouble. Young Marshal Wei is new to Jianghai City and isn't familiar with it, so you can let my daughter show him around."

Meng Shuwan was delighted to hear her father say this. Did this mean that he was introducing them to each other, and then...

"General Meng, there's no need to address me like that. I'm probably not much different in age from you, the young master. If General Meng doesn't mind, you can just call me by my name."

"In that case, you should call me uncle."

"Yes, Meng Bo."

"Okay, okay, that sounds good. It's awkward to call them "Overseer" or "Overseer."

After a few more chats, it was time for dinner.

Meng Zimo had just arranged today's affairs, and he wanted to meet Wei Siye when he came home.

When Rong Xi saw Meng Zimo, her heart still palpitated. She knew that this was the original owner's emotion, but she still couldn't help but keep her eyes on Meng Zimo, as if she couldn't see enough.

But her eyes suddenly met Wei Siye's, and for some reason she subconsciously looked away, which surprised Wei Siye.

Her current identity has been revealed. If ordinary people knew her identity, they would immediately want to tell her that she was the one who saved her that night.

Why does she look like she doesn't want to be recognized?

Rong Xi didn't step forward when the dishes were served, and she felt a little uncomfortable. She felt that if she were there again, she would definitely try her best to get close to Meng Zimo.

Whether Wei Siye is an important guest today or the object of his mission, it would not be good for him to see him.

After lunch, Meng Tianrui asked Meng Shuwan and Meng Zimo to take Wei Siye around the house.

He did have something to deal with, but before leaving, he called Meng Zimo to the study and told him to keep an eye on Wei Siye and not let him move around freely.

Rong Xi felt a little relieved after returning to the side courtyard. He didn't know why he was more excited this time than last time.

She was a little curious and asked the system. "System, why did the original owner like Meng Zimo so much?"

The system operated in the space and found out why he thought the original owner liked Meng Zimo.

Rong Xi soon saw a scene where war was raging. She was separated from her brother and wet nurse. She was only twelve years old and had always been the apple of her parents' eyes.

It was the first time she had witnessed such a thrilling scene. Fear surged into her heart like a tide, leaving her unable to support her body.

The environment filled with flames of war and smoke seemed to swallow her up, and every moment was filled with endless danger.

Just when she was in despair, a figure rushed over like lightning. It was Meng Zimo!

He saved the original owner from the brink of death with astonishing speed.

He was only sixteen years old at that time. His appearance was like a bright light that penetrated the darkness and gave the original owner hope of life.

In the eyes of the original owner, Meng Zimo was not only her savior, but also a hero worthy of admiration and emulation. In this life-or-death moment, he demonstrated courage and responsibility through his actions.

"I see. Then why didn't the original owner make obtaining Meng Zimo his mission?"

System: [Perhaps that is a height she will never reach.]

"Well, I was originally thinking of taking advantage of this Meng Zimo."
