Chapter 770 She Can't Stay
Qiao Zhiyu bent over, lowered her head, and looked obsequious: "My cousin is so good to me. You are the person I am most grateful to. Besides my mother, I don't have any other relatives except my cousin and aunt. So, I am willing to listen to my cousin in everything."
Meng Yunlan was satisfied with her attitude and softened his tone, saying, "It's good that you're willing to listen to me. Don't worry, I won't harm you. With me here, your future won't be bad."
"Yes, thank you, cousin."
"You should have noticed by now that Qianhan has started to disrespect me. Today, she even took away my maid and nanny in front of your brother-in-law, making me lose face."
“Cousin, I think the Second Young Master actually respects you quite a bit, but the reason he embarrassed you is because Shen Wantang interfered. When Shen Wantang wasn’t back, you and the Second Young Master had a very pleasant conversation, but as soon as Shen Wantang returned, the Second Young Master’s attitude changed and he started spouting nonsense.”
Meng Yunlan glanced at her: "Yes, Qianhan's attitude has changed very obviously. This Shen Wantang can't be allowed to live."
Qiao Zhiyu was shocked: "Cousin, could it be that she's going to... kill Shen Wantang?"
“As my cousin knows, I always put the big picture first. I don’t like troublemakers or people who stir up trouble. Sometimes I will use ruthless methods to ensure peace and harmony in the family. Everything I do is for the sake of this family. I have no selfish motives whatsoever.”
Qiao Zhiyu sneered inwardly. She was clearly too controlling, even trying to control her brother-in-law and couldn't stand seeing him being close to her wife.
"In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are needed. I hope my cousin can understand."
"I understand. My cousin is thinking about the future of the Duke's mansion. She has a great sense of righteousness."
"I'm glad you understand. Starting tomorrow, you'll have to find a way to get into Qianhan's bed and get pregnant with Qianhan's child."
"What?!"
Qiao Zhiyu's expression immediately broke down: "How is this possible!"
What makes her think she can get into Gu Qianhan's bed?
How could she possibly conceive Gu Qianhan's child?
Even if all of this could be achieved, given Meng Yunlan's jealous nature, would he allow her to give birth to the child?
"Why are you so flustered, cousin? Look at you, you don't act like a proper young lady at all. You're making a big fuss. How can you get into Qianhan's bed if you act like this?"
"Yes, my cousin is right, but I..."
"There are no buts. You must do this, and you must do it as soon as possible. Once you become Qianhan's woman, I will find a way to make you his concubine. At that time, you must keep him firmly in your room."
"Cousin, I think I'm probably no match for Shen Wantang!"
"Isn't there me? With the two of us sisters working together, how can we not deal with Shen Wantang? Once she's dead, you can go from being a concubine to the principal wife. How about it? Becoming Qianhan's principal wife isn't a waste of your talent, is it?"
Qiao Zhiyu cursed Meng Yunlan in her heart. She didn't know whether Shen Wantang was dead or not. All she knew was that she was about to die!
Previously, it was barely acceptable for Meng Yunlan to ask her to become Gu Qianhan's concubine, but today she saw with her own eyes that Gu Qianhan ruthlessly took away Meng Yunlan's nanny and maid. After they were sent back, one of them was so frightened that she went crazy and kept talking nonsense, while the other was so frightened that she couldn't say a word.
How could Meng Yunlan, a man so ruthless and heartless, still want her to climb into his bed?
If she dares to climb into Gu Qianhan's bed, she'll fall into his hands and have no chance of survival.
Meng Yunlan is truly vicious, actually making her sacrifice herself to feed a tiger, as if he's afraid she'll have a single day of peace!
Even though Qiao Zhiyu was cursing inwardly, she didn't dare show it on her face. She could only say insincerely, "Cousin, I know that I am of lowly status and dare not presume to be the Second Young Master, let alone hope to become his wife. But since you want me to give it a try, then let me try! I only ask that you help me a little more and not let me end up in a miserable state."
"Cousin, don't worry, I will do my best to help you."
"Thank you, cousin."
"Alright, go back now. Remember to throw away that ugly dress you're wearing. If I see you wearing it again, don't blame me for disregarding our sisterly bond and kicking you out of the Duke's mansion."
“But then I won’t have any clean clothes to change into, cousin.”
Meng Yunlan's face immediately turned cold: "What do you mean? I gave you a set of clothes and it wasn't enough, you want more? Qiao Zhiyu, don't be so greedy!"
Qiao Zhiyu gritted her teeth inwardly. Meng Yunlan was such a stingy person. He wanted to take advantage of her, but he wouldn't let her dress up nicely.
"Cousin, I'm innocent! I dress more presentably so as not to embarrass you, right? Besides, wearing the same clothes every day won't make the Second Young Master fall for me!"
Meng Yunlan coldly said, "Hmph, do you think Qian Han is like those shallow men outside? Do you think he's blinded by lust?"
"He is a genius. He doesn't care about looks or a person's appearance. He values a person's inner qualities, talent, and wisdom."
"Whether you dress up or not, it's all the same to him. So, you should spend less time on these useless things. Dressing up too much and attracting too much attention will only make Qianhan feel disgusted."
Qiao Zhiyu didn't believe a word of it: "Cousin, don't lie to me. If the Second Young Master really didn't care about looks, why would he marry the stunningly beautiful Shen Wantang?"
"If he truly valued talent and wisdom, he should have married Liu Nanshi, after all, Liu Nanshi is a genius and the most talented woman. Where did Liu Nanshi lose out by not marrying the second young master? Wasn't it just because of her looks?"
"Moreover, Shen Wantang dresses up more brightly than anyone else every day, with gorgeous clothes and expensive jewelry. She also draws her eyebrows, applies beautiful rouge, and puts on rosy lipstick! I haven't seen the Second Young Master dislike it at all!"
No matter how assertive Meng Yunlan was, he was speechless for a long time after being choked by Qiao Zhiyu.
Indeed, where did Liu Nanshi lose? She lost because she wasn't as beautiful as Shen Wantang.
Except for appearance, Liu Nanshi surpasses Shen Wantang in every way.
Qiao Zhiyu rarely saw her cousin get the short end of the stick, which made her feel much better. She took the opportunity to say, "Cousin, it's okay if you don't give me new clothes. But I still need to keep this one I'm wearing, just in case."
"After all, this dress was a gift from Shen Wantang, so the Second Young Master will definitely like it. If I wear this dress to see the Second Young Master, I might have more opportunities to get closer to him."
"Oh, cousin, your wonderful sister-in-law is so generous! She just gave me this gorgeous dress. It's really touching!"
"How about this, since she's both rich and generous, I'll go ask her for two more pieces so we can alternate wearing them."
"But... if she asks me why I didn't ask my cousin for clothes, but instead asked her, an outsider, for clothes, how should I answer?"
