Chapter 189 Tearing Off the Mask! Sisterly Affection Was Nothing But a Deception
Meng Anfeng never dreamed that one day Meng Yanzhi would actually reveal these things.
For a moment, Meng Anfeng didn't even know how to answer. After all, Meng Yanzhi hadn't said anything wrong. There was no emotional foundation between them to begin with. It was true that Meng Yanzhi hadn't eaten much rice from the Meng family. But saying it out loud would make him look guilty.
Meng Anfeng took a deep breath and stared straight at Meng Yanzhi before saying, "So, is this your reason for resenting us?"
"Yes, that's why I resent you. Should I not resent you? Should I just act like I don't care?"
"Don't forget, Meng Anxian stole my parents and my position. What kind of life has she lived all these years? What kind of life have I lived?"
"I just don't understand, why should I have to accept everything?"
With her eyebrows furrowed tightly, Meng Yanzhi finally poured out all the grievances she had held in her heart for so many years.
Seeing Meng Anfeng's face grow increasingly grim, Meng Yanzhi spoke up again: "Brother, if it were you, you wouldn't be able to be completely without reservations either, would you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone walked over. They saw Meng Anfeng's grim expression, but felt sorry for Meng Yanzhi.
Seeing Meng Yanzhi say these words, Meng Anxian's face turned very ugly: "So, sister, you really don't like me, right?"
"Yes, I don't like you. I can only manage not to hate you, no matter how hard I try!"
"Meng Anxian, we're not blood sisters, so why talk about sisterly affection?"
"You will become the Crown Princess in the future. From now on, we will live our own lives and keep to ourselves. Isn't that the best approach?"
After saying this, Meng Yanzhi turned around and walked towards her carriage.
Everything that needed to be said has been said. Whether they are willing to stop while they are ahead is their business. If they can see the error of their ways, Meng Yanzhi is also willing to stop and live a good life. Before, Meng Yanzhi only had hatred in her heart, but now she has Xiao Xingyuan and love, so she is willing to take a step back on these past events.
"Meng Yanzhi, what gives you the right to say that!"
"Let me tell you, no matter what you say, you are still my daughter, you are still a member of the Meng family!"
Meng Anfeng roared at Meng Yanzhi's retreating figure.
"I have to say, you two are real jinxes! You ruined our banquet the moment you arrived. It's absolutely infuriating!"
"Alright, now nobody has anything to eat."
Zhao Bailu looked at the two people with a displeased expression, thinking that the roasted rabbit and roasted fish would be ready soon, but it was all because of these people!
"you!"
Meng Anxian's face darkened.
"How can we be in the wrong? It's clearly my sister who's being aggressive!"
"If you don't talk nonsense, she'll become aggressive. She's supposed to be the Crown Princess, yet she has no tolerance at all. I just don't understand, does the Crown Prince have to listen to who he wants and who he doesn't want?"
"What bad luck!"
"Brother, let's go home!"
Zhao Bailu rolled her eyes at Meng Anxian, ignoring what she was saying, and pulled Zhao Dongzhi away.
Watching Zhao Bailu leave, Gu Hanyue also snorted in dissatisfaction and followed her out. The once lively manor was now left with only the Meng siblings. The two stared at each other, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes. They really couldn't understand where Meng Yanzhi got her ability to make everyone like her so much.
How did she manage to do that?
Meng Yanzhi did not return directly to the palace. Instead, she went to the Zhang residence to see Zhang Xuanyun and also to sort out her thoughts.
After entering, Meng Yanzhi went straight into Zhang Xuanyun's study. Sure enough, Zhang Xuanyun was reading a book. He was startled when he saw Meng Yanzhi come in like that. He quickly put down the book and asked, "What's wrong? You seem to be in a bad mood?"
“Sir, I’m just in a bad mood…” Meng Yanzhi lowered her eyes: “There are some people who were very bad to me before, but now they want me to be nice to them. What should I do?”
"Just follow your heart. If you want to be good to them, then be good to them; if you don't want to, then there's no need." Zhang Xuanyun looked at Meng Yanzhi very seriously: "If they insist on having you, then you can also choose not to have them!"
After hearing this, Meng Yanzhi finally felt a little better. She glanced at Zhang Xuanyun and then said sullenly, "Sir, you are amazing. You can be indifferent, but what can I do? I can't be indifferent at all. They bully me, torture me, and humiliate me, but they still demand that I love them, cherish them, and beg them. I just feel unwilling. I just don't understand why?"
"In this world, there are not so many 'whys' about things. Some people are born unreasonable. You should have known this long ago."
"It all depends on your own thoughts. Whether you want it or not, whether you want it or not, it's all up to you. It's all up to you!"
Zhang Xuanyun stood up, gently patted Meng Yanzhi's head, and softly comforted her.
Meng Yanzhi lowered her eyes, naturally feeling that what Zhang Xuanyun said made a lot of sense, but just because it made sense didn't mean it could actually be done. She took a deep breath and then said in a muffled voice, "Sir, I'm still sad."
"Sadness will always come."
"Being sad is your right, isn't it?"
Zhang Xuanyun smiled gently.
"You're a little girl after all!"
She was just a young girl.
Meng Yanzhi was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Having lived a second life, she naturally did not consider herself a little girl. However, after hearing Zhang Xuanyun say this, she immediately realized the truth.
She suddenly stood up and looked at Zhang Xuanyun very seriously: "Sir, you are really amazing!"
"Of course I'm good."
"If you weren't capable, how could you be your husband?"
Zhang Xuanyun couldn't help but chuckle.
Seeing Zhang Xuanyun like this, Meng Yanzhi even felt a sense of relief and hurriedly took out the pork jerky she had made and handed it to Zhang Xuanyun.
"What's this?"
Zhang Xuanyun had never seen this before and asked about it out of curiosity.
Meng Yanzhi had already started walking out, saying with a smile as she went, "It's tuition!"
Tuition fee?
Looking at what he had in his hand, Zhang Xuanyun found it amusing. Watching Meng Yanzhi leave happily, he felt a surge of indescribable tenderness in his heart.
Zhang Yu'er was somewhat surprised to see Meng Yanzhi come over fuming and leave happily.
