When Ye Linchen heard Meng Xueyun say this, he knew that she definitely had ill intentions again.
I don't know if I wanted to speak up for Meng Zihan or if I wanted her to tutor Meng Zihan.
Ye Linchen had seen this tactic many times in his previous life.
Whenever Meng Zihan or the Ye family needed money, Meng Xueyun would pretend for a few minutes to coax her into willingly giving money to help support the family.
As soon as he got the money, his true colors were revealed, and he continued to despise her.
Meng Xueyun was unaware that her little scheme had been seen through, and she was still holding back her anger and bowing her head to Ye Linchen.
"Xiao Chen, I know what happened in the past makes you uncomfortable, but you are still my biological daughter. Even if there is a huge grudge, as long as there is blood ties, everything can be resolved."
"Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. How can I really watch you suffer out there and not care?"
These words were taught to Meng Xueyun by Meng Zihan. Every time Meng Xueyun said them, she felt as if a knife was scraping her heart, causing her unbearable pain.
Ye Linchen felt disgusted just listening to it.
"Take it back, I won't eat your food."
"I am your enemy from a past life reincarnated to harm you. Who knows if you might have poisoned the soup?"
Meng Xueyun was so angry that she trembled.
That brat! I've already been so humble and subservient, and she's still taking advantage of my kindness!
However, thinking of Ye Zhenghua's position and Meng Zihan's studies, she forced herself to hold back her sadness.
"Yes, it was Mom's fault before, Mom's attitude was bad."
"Mom will definitely treat you well from now on and will never let you suffer again."
"It's okay if you don't forgive me. This crucian carp soup took me all day to simmer. Just one sip from it will make Mom happy."
Ye Linchen looked at the soup in her thermos, then at Meng Xueyun who looked like she was possessed by a ghost, and suddenly had an absurd idea.
Could it be that I embarrassed Meng Zihan, and Meng Xueyun felt sorry for her, so she put poison in the soup to avenge Meng Zihan?
She immediately took two steps back warily and refused outright.
"No need. You can take the soup. If you don't, I'll just throw it away after you leave. There's no need to waste it."
"Instead of wasting your time, you should give Meng Zihan some extra help. Her brain needs more nourishment than mine."
"Harming others is harder than studying, and it takes more brainpower."
Meng Xueyun was so angry her nose almost twisted out of shape.
If Feng Linlin and Lin Xiaojuan hadn't been watching, she would have really wanted to throw the soup in Ye Linchen's face.
It's better to waste food than to feed you, you ungrateful wretch!
She didn't insist. She covered her face and said sadly, "Xiao Chen, Mom knows you're upset. Mom doesn't blame you. Since you don't like crucian carp soup, I'll make something else for you next time."
"It's getting late. You should eat first, and then study hard so you don't fall behind on the college entrance exam."
After saying that, she picked up the thermos and walked outside while crying.
Ye Linchen followed closely behind her and hurriedly closed the door.
Feng Linlin and Lin Xiaojuan, who were stunned by what they saw, finally came to their senses.
"What's wrong with your mother? Has she been possessed?"
Lin Xiaojuan thought about it a lot, but couldn't find any other reason to explain it.
Feng Linlin was about to nod when she suddenly remembered something and realized what was going on.
"I know why she did it!"
“I heard from my mom yesterday that the factory is holding democratic elections in the workshops, with the factory nominating candidates and the workers voting.”
"Whoever gets the most votes will be elected."
"The deputy director in your dad's workshop is a college graduate. He's very capable, and the workers all like him very much."
"Plus, the mess your family has made has spread throughout the factory. Many people have a problem with your father, thinking that if he can't even manage his own family, how can he manage the workshop?"
"My mom thinks your dad is in trouble this time."
"Maybe that's why your mom is looking for you."
"Once I've tricked you into going back and gotten the director's position, I'll bully you like before!"
"Xiao Chen, you must hold on! At the very least, you have to wait until the election is over before you go back!"
Ye Linchen thought back for a moment and realized that the factory elections were around this time.
In his previous life, Ye Zhenghua was selected, and the deputy director named Zhang Chenggong became the workshop director.
Ye Linchen sneered.
"Don't worry, I won't let them have their way."
"If Ye Zhenghua loses the election because of a rumor, it means he is not very popular in the factory. It's not my fault."
Feng Linlin and Lin Xiaojuan were relieved.
Ye Linchen sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and put a large pork rib on each of their plates.
"Eat your meal, don't let this affect you."
So Meng Xueyun's lovingly prepared crucian carp soup was brought home intact.
***
School started right after the first diagnostic test.
The parent-teacher meeting will be held soon after.
The main purpose is to mobilize parents to work together with their children to prepare for the college entrance examination.
When Ms. Ma was organizing the parents' information, she was stumped by the name Ye Linchen.
Ye Linchen's situation is special; who should be notified to attend the meeting?
Well, since she had to contact Meng Xueyun anyway, she might as well ask Meng Xueyun's opinion after they finished talking about Meng Zihan.
If their mother-daughter relationship is really as bad as rumored, and Meng Xueyun is unwilling to attend the meeting with Ye Linchen, then she will make further plans.
Teacher Ma asked Meng Zihan to pass on a message to Meng Xueyun, asking her to come to the school.
Meng Xueyun was very uneasy after receiving the notification.
Meng Zihan did so poorly on the test that she couldn't hold her head up in front of her teacher.
However, Teacher Ma didn't blame her too much. She just told her to pay more attention to supervising Meng Zihan and not to put too much pressure on her.
Meng Xueyun readily agreed.
She's now very careful when talking to Meng Zihan, and doesn't even dare to mention studying, for fear of upsetting her or putting pressure on her.
Teacher Ma then asked, "Are you attending your daughter Ye Linchen's parent-teacher conference as well?"
"Parent-Teacher Conference?"
Meng Xueyun had completely forgotten that she still had to attend that brat's parent-teacher conference.
Meng Xueyun was extremely unwilling.
Although that brat has good grades, she is selfish, a habitual liar, and has utterly disgraced the country.
And she definitely won't agree; she might even cause a scene on the spot, making things difficult for her.
After much thought, Meng Xueyun decided to shift the blame onto Ye Linchen.
Meng Xueyun said with difficulty, "Teacher Ma, Xiao Chen is a very stubborn child. He had several conflicts with his family and moved out. Now, when he sees me, it's like he's seeing an enemy."
"I was worried about her being out alone, so I brought some food to visit her, but I couldn't even see her. She closed the door as soon as she saw me, and I had to bring the food back untouched."
"Sigh, it's my fault too. Back then, her father and I were in the city, busy and overwhelmed, and couldn't take care of her, so we entrusted her to her grandmother."
"Then my younger brother had a family emergency and entrusted Xiaohan to me. I then gave birth to twins, and with three children to care for alone, I simply couldn't manage, so I didn't go to pick her up."
"Who would have thought she would hate me like that?"
"You're her teacher, and she listens to you the most. Could you please help me persuade her to agree to let me attend her parent-teacher conference?"
