Chen Siyun's eyes darted around, and she gently massaged Meng Ruixiang's arm with her fist, lowering her voice to say, "Even if we estrange them from each other, as long as Qingwan can't have a child, there will be other illegitimate children coming to our door! This is just treating the symptoms, not the root cause!"
Meng Ruixiang felt a headache coming on and said irritably, "Then what do you suggest we do?"
“Why don’t we just find someone who can have children? Qingwan can’t, but Linlin can!” Chen Siyun whispered in his ear, “We can do this…”
Meng Ruixiang's eyebrows twitched slightly. Chen Siyun could tell from his expression that he was tempted, so she continued to persuade him: "Qingwan and Linlin are sisters after all. If Linlin gives birth to a son for her, her position in the Feng family will be even more secure, won't it?"
"Even if Qingwan divorces the Feng family, she still has her own son to keep him in check. Why would she be afraid that he wouldn't support the Meng family?"
"Let me think about it first..." Meng Ruixiang was quite tempted by Chen Siyun's plan. Not to mention, Meng Qingwan, that rebellious daughter, had been married to Feng Congqian for so many years and had not provided any support to the Meng family. In fact, she often opposed the Meng family in public!
If it weren't for him instructing his eldest son to avoid her sharp edges all these years and secretly conduct business under the Feng family's name, the Meng family would have fallen out of the circle of the eight great wealthy families in Beijing long ago!
Since Meng Qingwan is disobedient and her pregnancy is still useless, let's replace her with someone more useful.
After all, he knows men are all like that; they like young and beautiful girls. Linlin is only in her early twenties, in the prime of her life, and being paired with Feng Congqian is a win for him!
"You can make the arrangements yourself," Meng Ruixiang said slowly, his eyes slightly closed. "Find a day in the next few days to invite Qingwan back to the Meng family for a meal. There's no reason for our family not to make any gesture after Feng Congqian has woken up."
Chen Siyun's face lit up with joy: "Okay, I'll take Linlin to scout it out tomorrow."
-
I slept without any dreams.
At noon, a white sedan was parked outside the Feng family manor. Chen Siyun and a stylish young woman with wavy hair, dyed red hair, and exquisite makeup got out of the car.
The young woman tidied her slightly disheveled hair and couldn't help but complain, "Mom, are you getting senile? Feng Congqian is twenty years older than me! He's an old man in his forties! How could I possibly be interested in him? I'd be more likely to be interested in his son!"
"If you're capable of seducing his other sons, I won't ask you to seduce an old man," Chen Siyun sneered. "But do you have the ability?"
Chen Siyun looked up at the understated yet luxurious manor before her, a glint of greed and jealousy flashing in her eyes. She lowered her voice and warned, "Meng Linlin, I don't care how you behave abroad, but we're in China now! Even if you're pretending, you'd better pretend to be well-behaved! Do you understand?"
Meng Linlin drawled impatiently, "I know."
She secretly curled her lip. He was just an old man in his forties, and had been bedridden for three years. He probably already had a full head of white hair. She was only twenty years old, in the prime of her youth and beauty. Seducing him would be a piece of cake.
She had no idea what her mother was so worried about!
Chen Siyun straightened her clothes slightly, took a deep breath, and with a gentle smile on her face, went up to report to the bodyguard guarding the door. She was soon invited inside.
Inside the manor.
Nan Yuanman and Meng Qingwan sat on the ground, their heads facing each other, whispering and discussing something while holding a booklet.
There are only the two of them in the living room now. Feng Congqian and Feng Xingchi are in the study on the third floor. The other members of the Feng family are still out of town and have not returned.
Meng Qingwan was planning to help Nan Yuanman open an online store and design a business card for him. When introducing business, he could just give her the business card and wouldn't have to waste so much breath explaining.
Upon hearing that Chen Siyun and Meng Linlin had arrived, Meng Qingwan merely raised her eyes slightly, not taking it to heart.
The news that Feng Congqian had returned to the capital with his biological daughter had already spread. She would only be surprised if her good stepmother did nothing.
She smiled and ruffled Nan Yuanman's hair: "Yuanman, in a little while, Aunt Qingwan will show you a 'closing the door and beating the dog' routine."
Nan Yuanman, who was diligently drawing a cartoon version of Grandpa Nan on his iPad, looked up blankly and looked around: "Dog? Where's the dog?"
"Oh my! Qingwan! It's been so long!" Chen Siyun's voice preceded her arrival.
Meng Qingwan smiled and gestured with her chin toward the door: "Look, the dog's here."
Nan Yuanman stared wide-eyed at the doorway with curiosity. A talking dog? Has it become a spirit?
Chen Siyun led Meng Linlin, who was looking around curiously, in. At first glance, they saw a cute and delicate-looking four or five-year-old girl sitting cross-legged on the carpet, holding a pen in her hand and looking at them with her big, bright eyes.
Chen Siyun's smile faltered for a moment, but she quickly smiled and greeted him as if nothing had happened: "Oh my, this must be Mr. Feng's daughter? She's so beautiful and cute, just like Mr. Feng!"
"Linlin, this is your sister Qingwan. Qingwan, this is your younger sister Meng Linlin. She just returned from studying abroad. I brought her here for you to meet, so the two sisters can get acquainted."
As Chen Siyun spoke, she pulled Meng Linlin over.
Meng Linlin secretly pursed her lips, then smiled slightly and said, "Hello, Sister Qingwan."
She secretly sized up Meng Qingwan. She was just so-so looking, but she was getting old, and her face was starting to sag. She couldn't have children either, so no wonder Feng Congqian was having an affair.
Meng Qingwan glanced at Chen Siyun and Meng Linlin with a half-smile, showing no intention of exchanging pleasantries with them. She rested her chin on her hand and said in a lazy voice, "Tell me, what does my dear father want this time?"
Chen Siyun knew that Meng Qingwan and Meng Ruixiang's relationship hadn't been good over the years, so she had kept a low profile in front of her. However, she didn't expect Meng Qingwan to be so blunt. She paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly and said, "What are you saying? Your father doesn't want anything. He just misses you."
As she spoke, she glanced at Nan Yuanman sitting next to her, and hesitantly asked, "Qingwan, your father asked me to pass on a few private words to you this time. Can we talk about it?"
"Let Linlin stay here with the children. She studied early childhood education abroad and she's really good at entertaining kids!"
Meng Qingwan instinctively wanted to refuse, but after thinking for a moment, she looked down at Nan Yuanman and asked, "Yuanman, what do you think?"
“Sure.” Nan Yuanman was staring at Meng Linlin when she heard this and waved her chubby little hand: “Aunt Qingwan, you go ahead, Yuanman will wait for you here.”
With so many maids and bodyguards in the manor, they're not pushovers; the Meng family mother and daughter wouldn't dare lay a hand on a child.
Meng Qingwan also wanted to hear what her good father was saying this time, so she got up and walked towards the adjacent reception room: "Come with me."
Chen Siyun smiled and agreed, pinched Meng Linlin's hand, winked at Nan Yuanman, and then followed behind Meng Qingwan.
Meng Linlin impatiently rubbed the spot where Chen Siyun had pinched her, then looked down and met Nan Yuanman's gaze.
She clicked her tongue and walked towards Nan Yuanman. Without even taking off her shoes, she stepped onto the freshly laid clean carpet, leaned close to her, and whispered maliciously, "Little brat, what are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!"
