Chapter 20 Don't Talk to Me
On the other side, Shen Lingwei also froze in the face of Miss Meng's sharp questioning. She remained calm under the vague glances of the crowd and replied,
"The Shen family is probably the only one in the capital that could be invited to the Meng family banquet. Miss Meng, you should remember that." She took back the cup, took a sip with great generosity, and said with a smile, "My father and Uncle Meng have been friends for many years."
Many people nodded secretly at her appropriate and considerate response, but Meng Qingse did not respond at all.
"That's not right." The red liquid swished slowly in the transparent goblet. Meng Qingse walked around her and said, "I remember that the Shen family only had one daughter. She fought with me every day when we were young. She didn't look like you."
Shen Lingwei's eyelids jumped.
"That's my younger sister. I'm the eldest daughter of the Shen family."
Meng Qingse stopped in her tracks. She finally turned around and looked at Shen Lingwei seriously. However, this time, the serious gaze made Shen Lingwei feel an inexplicable chill.
Then Meng Qingse smiled and drank all the red wine in the glass.
"So that's how it is," she put the cup down on the table with a soft sound, "In the Shen family, the younger sister came first, and then the older sister. This is the first time I've heard of such a strange thing."
She smiled and clapped twice, then pursed her lips indifferently, her voice as cold as ice.
"But there's one thing I need to correct you. Your father and my dad are just friends, not old friends. When I first knew the Shen family, they only had one eldest daughter. As for you..."
She smiled without any smile.
"Miss Shen, who came out of nowhere, please don't talk to me from now on."
She turned and left, still the cold and noble flower of Gaoling.
Leaving behind the crowd in an uproar and Shen Lingwei, whose cup was about to be crushed.
She stood there, feeling the malicious whispers and scrutiny from all around her. She took a deep breath, then put on a gentle smile again. She took out her phone from her handbag, dialed a number, and put it to her ear. She smiled and casually raised the volume.
"Zhiyuan, I'm here."
Just one name stopped all the whispers around. The forced smile on her lips finally became real after noticing the surprised looks of the crowd. While holding Zhu Anyan by her side, she said gently under everyone's gaze,
"It's quite fun. Miss Meng is a very nice person."
"Well, I know you're busy, so you don't have to come."
"No, I'm going home with my parents."
"Okay, you can ask me out then."
"Bye then."
She hung up the phone and put it back into her bag before Zhu Anyan could see the call clearly. She smiled and said,
"Let's go and find where my parents are."

"Are you so hostile to her?" Young Master Meng looked at his sister with a half-smile in his eyes.
"She bumped into me herself," Meng Qingse drank juice expressionlessly.
Just as Master Meng was about to continue speaking, he heard a voice that had just become familiar approaching rapidly.
"Meng Qingse, you don't love me anymore!"
Such horrifying words were spoken in a clear and pleasant voice, sounding mournful and sad. What was even more horrifying was that the voice was actually a woman!
Everyone who heard it couldn't help but look over. In the blink of an eye, they saw Miss Meng, who was so cold and aloof that she could kill with her eyes, catch a figure that was rushing towards her with an expressionless face and caught her off guard. She staggered back a few steps and stood firmly.
The crowd who thought they were going to witness a brutal and shameful incident, the next moment they heard Gaoling Zhihua say to the man calmly,
"Who told you that? I'll kick him out."
