Chapter 323 Clues
"Zhong Nianyao, why did you refuse so quickly?"
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's refusal, Zhong Mengxuan didn't show any anger or anxiety. Instead, she looked confident and said, "Why don't you listen to what kind of compensation I can give you, and then make a decision?"
"No matter what kind of reward you offer, I won't agree to it." Zhong Nianyao said bluntly, "The grudge between you and Long Jiarui has nothing to do with me, and I won't get involved, let alone help you get rid of an unborn child. I will never do such a thing that would damage my moral character."
However, she was still a little curious. What bargaining chips did Zhong Mengxuan have that she didn't know about? Why was she so sure that she would agree to such an outrageous thing for the so-called reward?
"If you knew what I had in my hand, you wouldn't have refused so quickly." Zhong Mengxuan looked at Zhong Nianyao and spoke word by word, "In my hand, there is a clue to your biological mother."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly changed. Zhong Nianyao's originally lazy expression also changed suddenly. She was originally leaning back in the chair, but now she was sitting upright, her sharp eyes fell on Zhong Mengxuan, and she exuded an aura of someone else. "Zhong Mengxuan, what do you know?"
No one in the entire Zhong family knew who her biological mother was. She had even tried to contact Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, but to no avail. But now, Zhong Mengxuan claimed to have a clue about her biological mother. This shocked her, and at the same time, she was a little skeptical.
Faced with Zhong Nianyao's sudden change, Zhong Mengxuan felt a sense of oppression, making her feel like she didn't dare to act recklessly in front of her. However, she immediately tried to calm herself down. She was now in the upper hand, so she didn't need to panic at all, and she didn't need to care about Zhong Nianyao's bluffing.
"Zhong Nianyao, I'm telling you that the bargaining chips in my hand will definitely interest you. As long as you are willing to help me this time, I will tell you everything I know."
After saying that, she looked at Zhong Nian Yao proudly, waiting for her answer.
In her opinion, she was already sure of victory. No matter who they were, they would always have a trace of admiration for their biological mother. Especially someone like Zhong Nianyao, who didn't even know who her biological mother was, would definitely be eager to know about her mother.
She just didn't believe that Zhong Nianyao could remain indifferent to such heavy news.
In Zhong Mengxuan's expectant eyes, Zhong Nianyao's cold voice rang out, "No, I still refuse."
"What?" Zhong Mengxuan couldn't believe her ears. "Did you hear what I just said? I have clues about your biological mother. In fact, I dare say that in the entire Zhong family, apart from me, absolutely no one knows."
"So what?" Zhong Nianyao asked coldly, "Just because of those so-called clues you have, do I have to help you kill an unborn child? Besides, Zhong Mengxuan, you are truly selfish! When you asked me to do this, you never thought about how I would get out of this, or how the Lu family would deal with me."
"All you think about is yourself. How can I trust someone as selfish as you?"
"As long as you're careful, you won't be discovered." Zhong Mengxuan said hurriedly, "I'm not asking you to push her or anything. Can't you just put some medicine in her food to make her have a miscarriage? This is not a difficult thing for you at all."
"Besides, what are you worried about? The Lu family won't suspect you. You and Long Jiarui have no grudges, so they definitely won't suspect you."
"Zhong Mengxuan, are you stupid or am I?" Zhong Nianyao sneered, "Don't you know what kind of family the Lu family is? Do you really think they can't find out our relationship? What makes you think I would take such a risk for you? Just based on those specious so-called clues you mentioned?"
"I'm not lying to you. I really do have clues about your biological mother." Zhong Mengxuan said quickly, "If you reject me this time, you will never know who your biological mother is in your entire life."
"Haha, Zhong Mengxuan, do you really think I'm a fool?" Zhong Nianyao just found it funny. "You just said that you only have clues about my mother, not who my biological mother is. Why do you think your bargaining chips can make me fall in love?"
Hearing Zhong Nianyao's words, Zhong Mengxuan fell into a state of anxiety, "Zhong Nianyao, aren't you curious about who your mother is?"
"I'm not curious." Zhong Nianyao shook her head, and her originally serious face relaxed. "If it is destined to happen, it will happen. If it is not destined to happen, don't force it. If she and I are not destined to be mother and daughter, then there is no need to force it. Besides-"
She raised her head, looked at Zhong Mengxuan, and said meaningfully, "I think my biological mother wouldn't want me to hurt others just to get clues about her!"
For a moment, Zhong Mengxuan didn't know what to say, but she was unwilling to leave like this. If she lost this opportunity today, she might never have another chance to get close to Long Jiarui.
"I need to rest." Zhong Nianyao ordered them to leave immediately, "So, please go back!"
"You——" Zhong Mengxuan was furious.
"Don't bother me anymore." Zhong Nianyao said lightly, "Otherwise, I don't mind letting the Lu family know your plan."
As soon as these words came out, Zhong Mengxuan, who was originally unwilling to accept it, suddenly felt scared, "Zhong Nianyao, you can't--"
"I can!" Zhong Nianyao interrupted Zhong Mengxuan directly, "Do you want to try?"
Zhong Mengxuan was frightened, gritted her teeth, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Zhong Mengxuan."
Just as she was about to leave, Zhong Mengxuan suddenly heard Zhong Nianyao's voice behind her. She turned back impatiently and said, "You——"
Before she finished speaking, Zhong Mengxuan's eyes began to become blurred and her whole body was in a daze.
Seeing that Zhong Mengxuan had fallen into a daze, Zhong Nianyao stood up and came to Zhong Mengxuan.
