Chapter 186 Quarrel
This sentence completely ignited Meng Anran's anger. She was about to explode when she suddenly heard her mother's call from downstairs: "Anran, are you back?"
Meng Anran took a deep breath, glared at her brother, and turned to go downstairs.
In the kitchen, Su Wanman was preparing a fruit salad. Noticing her daughter's expression was off, she asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did Xiaohong upset you?"
"Mom, I made an agreement with him not to let Xiaoxue into my room. But he was playing games in his room and didn't even know Xiaoxue had entered my room. My bed was covered with dog hair. I went to settle the score with him, but he turned around and accused me of being pretentious." Meng Anran rarely complained so much in one breath, and this time he was obviously angry.
Su Wanman handed her a bowl of fruit salad and gently advised, "Okay, okay, eat some fruit to cool down. I'll ask him to go and ask the housekeeper to clean your room later."
Meng Anran took the bowl and gave her mother some face. She sat at the dining table sullenly and said nothing more.
I hadn't eaten a few pieces of fruit when I suddenly heard a scream from upstairs, followed by hurried footsteps.
Meng Chenghong ran downstairs, rushed to the backyard, circled around, then turned back and rushed to the dining room, his face pale as he said, "Xiaoxue is gone!"
Su Wanman hung up the cleaned chopping board. "How could that be? It was still in the yard when I left."
She had just gone out to the fruit stall at the intersection to buy some fruit. It only took half an hour to go there and back. How could it be lost?
"I searched the entire house but couldn't find it!" Meng Chenghong's voice trembled with anxiety. He had just gone to look at his second sister's room out of guilt and was about to teach Xiaoxue a lesson, but found that he couldn't find it.
Thinking of the three rules, he suddenly turned to Meng Anran, "Did you send it away? Just because Xiaoxue soiled your bed, you threw it away, right?"
Meng Anran nearly choked on her fruit and stared at her brother in disbelief. "I just got home and didn't even see the shadow of the dog. All I saw was dog hair all over the floor."
"It must be you!" Meng Chenghong's eyes were red. Unable to bear Meng Anran's calm demeanor, he overturned the fruit salad in her hand and said, "Can't you even tolerate a dog now?!"
The sound of shattering glass bowls and roars made the entire dining room quiet in an instant.
Meng Anran was stunned for a moment, looking at the scattered fruits and glass fragments on the ground, then looked up at her brother's hateful eyes, and her chest felt like it was hit by something heavy.
She opened her mouth, but no words came out.
"Xiao Hong! How could you do this!" Su Wanman scolded harshly, "Hurry up and apologize to your second sister!"
"Unless she brings Xiaoxue back!" Meng Chenghong stared at Meng Anran stubbornly.
A feeling of fatigue surged into Meng Anran's heart. She grabbed the phone on the table, stood up and walked towards the door.
"An Ran! Where are you going?" Su Wanman shouted worriedly behind her.
"Let's wait until some people calm down." Without even looking back, she put on a pair of mules at the entrance and walked out the door.
She stood in the front yard of the villa, took a deep breath, and dialed the phone.
Less than ten minutes after she hung up the phone, Liuzhi appeared in front of her on a motorcycle and threw her a safety helmet.
"Miss, why do you suddenly feel like going to the beach?"
Meng Anran chuckled, put on the helmet, and got on the back of the motorcycle. "I haven't seen you for a long time. It's a rare day off today. Let's go to the beach and enjoy the breeze."
Liuzhi hooked the motorcycle's tripod with her heels, and after the man behind her hugged her waist, she turned the accelerator and took off.
The helmet had a Bluetooth intercom, and Liu Zhi replied to Meng Anran's previous words: "Going for a ride on the beach is so cool, Miss, you haven't tried it yet, right?"
"Um."
"There's a wine stall over at Golden Bay. It's so comfortable to sit on the beach at night, enjoying the breeze, drinking and chatting!" Liu Zhi couldn't help laughing just by imagining that scene. She added, "I've sent WeChat messages to Ming Jing and Qin Yaojing. They'll be there soon."
"Didn't you call Xiao Han?" Meng Anran raised an eyebrow. This chatterbox was still in Beijing. It would definitely be lively if he was called.
"Let's not invite him. It would be great if we two couples could just go on a date! He's a single guy, so inviting him over would just spoil the fun."
Meng Anran chuckled, it seemed to make some sense.
Only after hearing her laughter did Liu Zhi dare to ask, "Miss An, what are you unhappy about today?"
Since it wasn't a quarrel with Qin Mu, it must have been due to family reasons.
"My brother's dog was lost, and he suspected that I was the one who gave the dog away." Meng Anran said concisely.
"Huh?" Liu Zhi slammed on the brakes at the traffic light and felt the helmet of the person behind her bump against the back of her head. She pursed her lips, still unable to suppress her anger, and started cursing, "Are you crazy? They actually keep a dog at home? Don't they know you hate dogs? It's fine to keep a dog, but now it's lost and they're blaming you? Wow, are you asking for a beating, brother?"
Liuzhi remembers that Meng Chenghong was a very cute and well-behaved child when he was young. Now he has reached his rebellious stage and is looking for a beating, right?
No, the most important thing is that her best friend has been recognized as a member of the Meng family for more than five years, but the Meng family still doesn’t know that she hates dogs?
You actually keep a dog at home?
In order to let Meng Anran come to their home occasionally to play, these friends will not keep a dog even if they like dogs. At most, they will go to a dog cafe outside to pet one occasionally.
As An Ran's relatives, the Meng family actually keeps a dog at home?!
Liuzhi was puzzled, angry, and felt it was unforgivable!
Meng Anran was silent. She had said before that she hated dogs, and it was because of her hatred for dogs that she made three rules with Meng Chenghong. She felt that as a sister, she had done her best to tolerate dogs to this extent.
But Meng Chenghong didn't seem to care about her feelings. He even suspected her and yelled at her as soon as the dog was lost.
For the sake of a dog, the affection and trust between the siblings were completely lost.
It’s hard to describe my feelings at the moment. I feel the heartache of not being trusted, but more importantly... disappointment.
Family affection once again disappointed her.
She tried her best to accommodate her family and help her family, but in the end she ended up being suspected and questioned.
Suddenly I remembered what Lu Heng said: No one in this world has the right to make the young lady take the initiative to accommodate him.
The green light came on and Liuzhi drove the motorcycle quickly on the road.
The setting sun dyed the sky red, and the afterglow of the sunset was reflected on the goggles of the safety helmet, like a bright and colorful oil painting.
The wind whistled in her ears, dancing the girl's long hair and clothes, as if freedom was roaring.
It blew away the sadness in Meng Anran's heart.
The eldest lady will always put herself first in her life. The proud black swan only cares about whether her crown is crooked.
