Besides, my mother might not have been unaware of my second sister's true situation in her previous life. In the end, she was so desperate perhaps not only because she was heartbroken about herself.
Fortunately, God gave her a chance. She wanted to make those who had harmed her, her mother, and those she cared about in her previous life pay for their sins.
Meng Wan looked at the sudden change in Meng Qi's expression and said nothing more. He picked up the teacup and looked at the sky outside which was getting darker and darker.
This is her third winter in this strange world. Time flies so fast. By this time next year, she should be sitting in the house of Prince Shen’s mansion drinking tea.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu's clear face appeared in front of her. She was very glad that he was not a fool.
"So, are you really willing to marry Zhou Yu?"
After hearing this, Meng Wan raised her head and looked at Meng Qi, whose eyes were obviously red.
"What do you want to know?"
"All of it, if that's all you can say."
"No, that's not what I meant. I'm asking you what you want to know about whether I'm truly willing to marry you. If it's sincere, then you can reduce your guilt, your suspicion of me, and even your previous disrespect and disdain for me, and try to accept me as your true sister? If it's not sincere, then you should be grateful that I solved a big problem for you, so that you don't have to marry Zhou Yu, whom you hate. Or do you have a way to prevent me from marrying him even if I'm not sincere?"
Meng Qishi didn't expect Meng Wan to say such a thing. She didn't quite understand at first. She opened her mouth slightly and thought about Meng Wan's somewhat confusing words for a while before she reacted.
Then he let out a self-deprecating smile, "Second sister still has something against me after all."
"My opinion of you isn't that you hated Zhou Yu and resorted to such a clumsy act of breaking off the engagement. It's that after mother and I painstakingly explained to you that everything you've been through must have been a result of a conspiracy by the Third House, no, the Hong family, and yet you kept jumping into it, completely disregarding mother and my feelings. Is that guy called Hong Zhe really that good? Would you betray mother for him?"
Meng Qi looked up and recalled what Liu Mama and Yuan Dong had told her about the past two days. Looking at Meng Wan's frown and unhappy expression, Meng Qi knew that something must have happened that the two of them didn't know about.
"If, if I say that I regret all the stupid things I've done and I want to change for the better, do you believe me, Second Sister?"
Meng Wan was stunned, looking at Meng Qi's sincere expression, "Are you sure you will give up your thoughts on Hong Zhe and marry Prince Rui peacefully?"
Meng Qi nodded. "Just like you said, the three families have teased me time and time again. If I still refuse to change my ways, I will be cut into pieces."
Meng Wan stepped forward and took Meng Qi's hand. "Don't let Mother hear this. You know she can't stand this. What I said just now may have been a bit harsh, but I was just angry that you were disobedient and kept handing the knife handle to others."
Meng Wan sighed, "You just asked me if I really wanted to marry Zhou Yu. I'm telling you now, I do. I like Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu likes me too."
Meng Qi's eyes widened in disbelief. How could this be possible? Could they have had any private contact? It shouldn't have been possible. If Meng Wan had been serving as Su Qing, how could she have had any contact with Zhou Yu? And then being recognized as the Second Young Lady was even more impossible.
Meng Wan smiled slightly, with a sweet look on her face, "When I first met Zhou Yu, I didn't know he was the second young master of the Prince of Shen's Mansion, let alone that he was engaged to you. At that time, I called him Wang Xiaoer..."
