Chapter 322 Negotiating Conditions
Zhong Nianyao knew that Zhong Mengxuan's purpose for coming this time must be more than simple. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to not talk back in the face of her sarcastic remarks.
She didn't say anything else, but sat quietly on the sofa, waiting for Zhong Mengxuan to tell her purpose.
Seeing that Zhong Nianyao didn't speak again, Zhong Mengxuan actually felt a little uneasy. Especially since the room was so quiet that even the sound of their heartbeats could be heard clearly.
Zhong Nianyao was not anxious at all, but just looked at Zhong Mengxuan quietly.
It was unknown how much time had passed before Zhong Mengxuan finally spoke, "Zhong Nianyao, you are going to the Lu family to attend the family dinner tonight, right?"
"Didn't you already know everything last night?" Zhong Nianyao asked, "Are you coming here today to confirm something?"
"No," Zhong Mengxuan's eyes flashed with a cruel light, and then she said, "Zhong Nianyao, I want you to do something for me."
That matter-of-fact attitude was as if Zhong Nian Yao was her subordinate.
Zhong Nianyao was not angry, but said calmly, "I refuse."
This reaction was completely beyond Zhong Mengxuan's expectations. She asked anxiously, "You don't even know what I want you to do, why did you refuse so outright?"
She had thought about how Zhong Nianyao would ask her what was going on, and she had thought that Zhong Nianyao would refuse after knowing the truth. However, she had never expected that before she even said anything, Zhong Nianyao would just reject her so directly and coldly.
"No matter what it is, I refuse." Zhong Nianyao leaned back and said lightly, "Besides, Zhong Mengxuan, your memory shouldn't be that bad! The relationship between us is not the kind of relationship where we can help each other."
She didn't know where Zhong Mengxuan got the courage to ask her for help. Moreover, she used such a matter-of-fact tone to command.
Although they are cousins in name, their relationship is not very good in private, and almost every meeting ends in a bad mood.
So, she really didn't understand where Zhong Mengxuan got the nerve to say such things.
"Zhong Nianyao, no matter how bad our relationship is, it can't change the fact that you and I share the same blood." Zhong Mengxuan narrowed her eyes and said, "We are blood relatives, this is an unchangeable fact. Prosperity and adversity are shared by all. If I don't live well, you will also lose face, right?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I don't think so." Zhong Nianyao shrugged and said nonchalantly, "What you are like has nothing to do with me. If you are not doing well, I don't care."
"you--"
Seeing Zhong Nianyao's cold and ruthless look, Zhong Mengxuan was filled with hatred. However, thinking of the purpose of her trip, she finally suppressed her displeasure and continued, "You didn't even ask me what the matter was. Are you just rejecting me like that?"
"Does it matter?" Zhong Nianyao said lightly, "No matter what you want me to do, I refuse. And-"
She raised her eyes, seeing the murderous intent flickering in Zhong Mengxuan's eyes. A cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth as she continued, "I can be sure that what you asked me to do is not a good thing. It might even be something utterly evil. After all, although we are cousins, our relationship is not very good. If there is a good thing, you will definitely not come to me."
"You—" Zhong Mengxuan gritted her teeth and finally spoke, "Zhong Nianyao, if that's the case, how about we make a deal? I dare say I have what you want. All you have to do is help me do one thing."
After hearing what Zhong Mengxuan said, Zhong Nianyao's eyes flashed with interest, "Oh, then I want to see what kind of bargaining chips you have in your hand? Tell me, maybe I will really be moved!"
"As long as you promise me, I will definitely give it to you." Zhong Mengxuan's eyes flashed with a trace of determination, "Zhong Nianyao, what I want you to do is definitely easy for you. As long as you promise me, the reward I give you will definitely satisfy you."
"If it's such a simple thing, why don't you do it yourself?" Zhong Nianyao asked with a smile, "Or are you trying to push me into a trap?"
"If I could do it myself, I wouldn't be here to negotiate with you." Zhong Mengxuan was so angry that her teeth were itching. "But this matter is definitely very simple for you."
"Then tell me!" Zhong Nianyao said indifferently, "I actually want to know why you went to such great lengths to negotiate with me."
"It's simple. I want you—" Zhong Mengxuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent, "to create an accident and cause Long Jiarui to have a miscarriage."
Long Jiarui is Lu Chenran's legal wife, and now she is pregnant. If Long Jiarui gives birth to a boy, then even if she gives birth to a boy in the future, she will definitely not be able to compare.
Moreover, if Long Jiarui has a child before her, her situation will become very difficult.
The only solution now was to get rid of the baby in Long Jiarui's belly. Then, she would find a way to get pregnant again before Long Jiarui did, so that her future would be secure.
Of course, deep down in her heart, she had a dark thought. She had been forced to abort her first child because of the noble Long Jiarui. Now she wanted Long Jiarui to have a taste of that same pain.
Long Jiarui was Lu Chenran's legal wife, the eldest young lady of the Lu family, and the eldest daughter of the Long family. Regardless of which identity she held, she was not someone she could approach at the moment.
The only person who could do this now was Zhong Nianyao. Zhong Nianyao was going to attend the Lu family's family dinner today, so this was a great opportunity. Moreover, being able to make Long Jiarui lose her child at such a happy moment would make her feel particularly happy.
After hearing what Zhong Mengxuan said, the calmness on Zhong Nianyao's face was broken. When she looked at Zhong Mengxuan, it was as if she was looking at a madman. "Zhong Mengxuan, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Of course I know." Zhong Mengxuan's eyes gleamed even more fiercely, "I want to get rid of the baby in Long Jiarui's belly. I absolutely cannot let her give birth to this child."
Looking at Zhong Mengxuan's expression, Zhong Nianyao spoke directly, "You are quite cruel. However, I don't think I would do such a thing, so you don't need to waste your breath here."
