Did I touch a nerve in Chapter 31?



Who gives blessings like that?

Those around Wen Shengsheng all looked astonished.

I had heard rumors that the real and fake heiresses were at odds, and seeing them today, I can see that things are indeed quite different.

Wen Shengsheng's red lips parted slightly: "I wish my sister and her husband a loving and harmonious marriage, making others envious."

"..."

Feeling that Wen Shengsheng was cursing her marriage, Meng Qiqi had someone touch up her makeup, a strong smile on her lips: "We definitely will."

The two went in opposite directions.

Upstairs in the dressing room, as soon as Wen Shengsheng appeared, someone immediately came forward to do her makeup and get ready.

“Ms. Wen, this is Tom, an internationally renowned designer. He will be handling the entire engagement ceremony. You can ask him for advice if you have any questions.”

Wen Shengsheng's gaze fell on Tom. He was an overseas Chinese, tall and elegant. How did Qin Heming manage to recruit such a talent?

It's a waste of talent to hire an internationally renowned designer to design an engagement venue; it's not worth mentioning.

Tom smiled subtly and handed Wen Shengsheng a business card.

"Please feel free to contact me if you need anything in the future."

"Okay." After saying that, Wen Shengsheng casually stuffed Tom's business card into her bag.

Downstairs, Meng Qiqi was putting on makeup. She was in a bad mood because Wen's mother hadn't come to her engagement party. She had even said that she treated her like her own daughter, but it was all a lie.

She picked up a powder puff to touch up her makeup, then applied lipstick, misted her eyes, and took several deep breaths to calm her inner turmoil.

As Meng Qiqi came out of the dressing room, she bumped into her mother who was walking by. Seeing that her mother's complexion was not good, she asked with concern, "Qiqi, you don't look well. What's wrong?"

Meng Qiqi shook her head. Thinking about what was about to happen, she leaned weakly into her mother's arms: "Mom, I'm just nervous. You know, he agreed to marry me, and I'm very excited, but I'm also afraid of doing something wrong."

Mencius' mother patted her shoulder to comfort her: "Don't worry, with your mother here, no one can take your fiancé away."

Meng Qiqi looked up at her, gently bit her rosy lips, and hesitated to speak.

If their biological mother is so happy, they probably won't be so pleased if she mentions the Wen family again.

Meng Qiqi was deeply resentful that the Wen couple did not attend her engagement party.

It didn't matter if the Wen family refused to acknowledge her, but she had to make them understand that she was more suitable to be a member of the Wen family than Wen Shengsheng.

At this thought, a sinister glint flashed in Meng Qiqi's eyes.

Once she marries into the Ling family, dealing with Wen Shengsheng will be a piece of cake.

Even if Wen Shengsheng doesn't die, she will make Wen Shengsheng neither human nor ghost, and let her taste what pain is!

After Meng's mother was called out, Meng Qiqi sat sullenly in the dressing room.

Then a knock came at the door.

Meng Qiqi thought it was her mother returning, so she didn't turn around and simply said, "Go in."

The person behind me hasn't said a word?

Meng Qiqi suddenly turned her head, and when she saw Wen Shengsheng standing there, Meng Qiqi's face tightened, and she asked, "What are you doing here?"

Wen Shengsheng glanced at her lazily: "I came to see my good sister's engagement. Oh my, you look so beautiful today. I just wonder if you'll be this beautiful every day in the future."

Meng Qiqi gritted her teeth.

Seeing her exasperated look, Wen Shengsheng couldn't help but curl her lips in a mocking smile: "Can't even handle this? Meng Qiqi, is this all you're capable of? You're really useless!"

Upon hearing the word "useless," Meng Qiqi exploded: "Wen Shengsheng, shut your mouth!"

"Tsk—" Wen Shengsheng scoffed coldly, her tone extremely contemptuous: "What? Did I hit a nerve? You're afraid to admit it?"

She paused, then continued, "Do you know that someone like you isn't even worthy of carrying my shoes? I had no intention of taking anything from you, but ever since I returned to the Wen family, you've been causing me trouble at every turn. Meng Qiqi, that's enough, otherwise..."

Meng Qiqi trembled with anger: "Get out!" She raised her arm and swung it at Wen Shengsheng.

Wen Shengsheng quickly grabbed her wrist and twisted it downwards, causing Meng Qiqi to scream in pain.

She kicked Meng Qiqi's leg hard, stepping on Meng Qiqi's skirt. She controlled the force perfectly, and Meng Qiqi couldn't stand up at all. She could only kneel down next to Wen Shengsheng with both knees on the ground.

How embarrassing!

Wen Shengsheng playfully bent down, leaned closer to Meng Qiqi, and whispered, "Meng Qiqi, live a good life in the Ling family!"

Her seemingly random remark left Meng Qiqi bewildered yet filled with intense hatred.

She struggled to get up, but couldn't. Wen Shengsheng released her foot and took a step back: "If you provoke me again, I promise you'll never be able to get up again!"

Wen Shengsheng left the room slowly and deliberately.

Meng Qiqi lay on the cold floor, panting, her chest heaving violently, her nails digging into her skin.

The door slammed shut.

Meng Qiqi's furious roar pierced through the door and slammed into our eardrums: "Wen Shengsheng, you bitch!"

Today's marriage alliance of four families is a rare and grand occasion in the capital.

Qin Heming and Wen Shengsheng's engagement banquet was a grand affair, with a large number of guests. Almost every prominent figure in the city received an invitation, and media reporters rushed to take photos, all in an effort to get an exclusive story.

However, none of the people who came to the engagement banquet today were from the Qin family, leading many to speculate that the Qin family did not want Wen Shengsheng to marry into the family.

Qin Heming is a top-tier individual, and his primary consideration in marriage is matching social status. Wen Shengsheng clearly does not meet the first requirement!

Without the approval of the Qin family elders, Wen Shengsheng's future days will not be easy.

The guests in the audience whispered among themselves.

"Have you heard? I heard that Mr. Qin was supposed to marry Miss Meng."

"Say less, or you'll make more mistakes. There's no need for us to guess what the people above are thinking."

"Hehe, upstairs is the older sister's engagement, downstairs is the younger sister's engagement. It's a pity that Miss Meng is going to marry a cripple. It's too unfair to Miss Meng."

"What's there to complain about? Miss Meng did it voluntarily. It's said that she has always been deeply in love with Young Master Ling."

"Look... the female lead is here."

...

Wen Shengsheng appeared arm in arm with Qin He.

As soon as she entered, Wen Shengsheng felt a burning gaze upon her. Feeling uneasy, she noticed the man beside her gently patting her arm.

Her skin was extremely fair, which made her rosy cheeks appear even more delicate and alluring. Her lips, as full as flower petals, were painted with a light red lipstick, so bright and inviting that they drew people's attention.

She wore a bright red cheongsam, which showed off her beautiful figure. She swayed gracefully as she walked, and her lips moved slightly, making her unforgettable!

Wen Shengsheng truly lived up to her reputation as a beauty in a cheongsam; she and Qin Hemian were a match made in heaven.

Wen Shengsheng, who was going through the motions, always wore a seductive smile. Qin Hemian noticed that the eyes of this group of people were not innocent.

Qin Heming glanced at Wen Shengsheng and whispered, "Keep your smile at a 30° angle."

"..." Wen Shengsheng's smile almost froze. She said in a voice loud enough for the two of them to hear, "Mianmian, show me how to keep your smile at a 30° angle? Do you think this is a math problem?"
