Chapter 133 Let’s Chat
In the next few days, the atmosphere in the Zhong family was very bad.
Zhong Nianyao didn't stay in the Zhong family for a long time. Usually, if she didn't go to Tongtian Bridge, she would be shopping outside.
Of course, she wasn't afraid of Zhong Mengfan. She just didn't want to see Zhong Mengfan's ugly face.
After knowing Zhong Nianyao's abilities, Mr. and Mrs. Zhong relaxed their supervision of her. Therefore, she was relatively free on weekdays.
That day, Zhong Nianyao did not go to the stall, but went shopping. She did not return home until around nine o'clock in the evening.
After returning to the Zhong family, Zhong Nianyao planned to go upstairs as usual. Unexpectedly, when she passed the living room, she found Zhong Jinghao sitting there, seemingly waiting for someone.
Zhong Nianyao just glanced at him and continued walking forward. Her face was not big enough to think that Zhong Jinghao was waiting for her.
However, unexpectedly, she had just taken two steps when she heard Zhong Jinghao's voice behind her.
"Nian Yao, do you have time?" Zhong Jinghao had a gentle smile on his face, but there was no warmth in his eyes. "Let's chat!"
Hearing Zhong Jinghao's words, Zhong Nianyao's eyes flashed with surprise. But in the end, she turned around, returned to the living room, and sat down on the sofa opposite Zhong Jinghao.
"Brother, this is truly rare!" Zhong Nianyao's tone seemed to carry a hint of joking. "Right now, shouldn't you be more concerned about Zhong Mengfan? How do you have time to come and chat with me?"
Hearing Zhong Nianyao mention Zhong Mengfan, Zhong Jinghao's eyes flashed a dark light, which disappeared in an instant, and his expression did not change. "Mengfan is my sister, and you are also my sister. You both hold the same position in my heart."
"Oh, it's really my honor!" Zhong Nianyao leaned back on the sofa, looking lazy. "Then I wonder what my cousin wants to talk to me about?"
Zhong Jinghao looked at Zhong Nianyao who was sitting opposite him, his lips curled slightly, "Nianyao, it seems that my previous understanding of you was still too little! You are really completely different from the person I remember!"
"Maybe it's not because I'm different, but because you've never understood me!" Zhong Nianyao said with a half-smile, "But, cousin, whether you understand me or not is not important to you, right? In your heart, the most important thing is not the position of heir to the Zhong family, right? I won't compete with you for this position."
After hearing this, even the usually calm Zhong Jinghao's expression changed. He then said, "Nian Yao, although we are cousins, it's better not to make jokes casually. Grandpa is the head of the Zhong family. Only he and Grandma have the right to decide who will be the heir. As younger generations, we should not pay too much attention to it."
"Haha." Zhong Nianyao couldn't deny it, "Okay! Then what do you want to talk about, cousin?"
"Let's talk about Meng Fan!"
As he spoke, Zhong Jinghao's eyes became sharp, and the gentle aura on his body disappeared, replaced by a cold and stern look. "Nian Yao, how did you know Meng Fan was pregnant? And how did you know that this child couldn't be aborted?"
That’s right, my parents have already discussed it. There is absolutely no way they will abort the baby in Zhong Mengfan’s belly.
Thinking of Zhong Nianyao's previous affirmative words, the more I look at them now, the more weird they seem.
"No reason." Zhong Nianyao spread her hands, looking nonchalant. "Anyway, I just know it. How I know it, does it matter? Cousin, don't you think the most important thing right now is to find a way to resolve this matter?"
"Oh, you have a solution?" A thoughtful look flashed in Zhong Jinghao's eyes.
"Why ask me?" Zhong Nianyao looked at Zhong Jinghao with a meaningful smile. "Brother, don't you already have an idea? If so, why are you testing me here?"
Zhong Jinghao's face changed, but he recovered immediately, "Nian Yao, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand anything?"
"How could I not understand?" Zhong Nianyao didn't beat around the bush. "A grandson becomes a son, and a nephew becomes a brother. Isn't that great? Not only does it preserve Zhong Mengfan's reputation, but my uncle and his family also have a son. Everyone is happy!"
As soon as these words came out, the usually calm Zhong Jinghao's face changed drastically. When he looked at Zhong Nianyao, there was even a hint of horror in his eyes, "How did you know?"
He did have such an idea, but he hadn't even told his parents about it, so how could Zhong Nianyao know about it? Thinking of Zhong Nianyao's behavior during this period, his face became even uglier.
"How I know is not important." Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook her head. "What's important is that what you plan to do has nothing to do with me. Cousin, I'm not your enemy, so you don't need to be so nervous."
"Nian Yao, you have changed a lot."
The cold aura around Zhong Jinghao disappeared instantly, and he regained his usual gentleness. "If you didn't look exactly the same as before, I would have doubted whether you were still the cousin I remembered."
"I am Zhong Nian Yao." A firm voice sounded, "Whether I was before or I am now, I am still Zhong Nian Yao. There is no need for you to test or warn me. I can tell you with certainty that I have no interest in the Zhong family's assets or the position of heir, so there is no need for you to regard me as an enemy. But -"
When she said this, the smile on Zhong Nianyao's face became even brighter, but her words were full of threats. "I won't allow others to covet the assets my father left me. If someone wants to take away my things, then I might also want to take away theirs. When the time comes, it will depend on whose means are more powerful."
Zhong Jinghao's face wasn't very good, but he still made a promise, "I don't know what's going on with the Second House, but I can guarantee that from today on, no one in our First House will ever covet the things that Third Uncle left for you."
He knew full well that his parents had been coveting the things left by his uncle. He hadn't stopped them, after all, no one could remain indifferent to such a large fortune. Furthermore, Zhong Nianyao didn't look like someone who could protect those things. However, the situation was completely different now.
