Chapter 394: Chatting
After everyone had said what needed to be said, they dispersed.
In fact, the main reason why everyone gathered together this time was just to talk about Zhong Mengfan's affairs. Although everyone already knew how things would develop long before Zhong Mengfan went abroad to give birth.
However, there are some things that need to be emphasized. This matter is a secret of their Zhong family, and it concerns their reputation. If it gets out, then everyone will lose face.
From beginning to end, Zhong Nianyao didn't say a word. She just sat there like a mascot with an attitude of indifference.
After everyone left, Zhong Nian Yao had no intention of staying any longer and wanted to go upstairs.
However, as soon as he stood up, he was stopped by someone.
"Nianyao, do you have time to chat?" Zhong Mengfan stepped forward, looked at Zhong Nianyao with a smile, and said, "It won't take up much of your time. We haven't seen each other for so long, it's only natural for sisters to sit down and chat."
Zhong Nianyao glanced at Zhong Mengxuan who was also left behind, and then looked at Zhong Mengfan who was completely different from before, almost reborn. After thinking about it, she nodded.
A moment later, in the garden——
The three young ladies of the Zhong family sat there leisurely, which was almost unheard of before. However, if you got closer, you would find that the atmosphere between the three of them seemed a little strange.
Zhong Nianyao sat there, holding the teacup and drinking tea leisurely.
Zhong Mengxuan had an impatient look on her face, as if she couldn't wait to leave, but she still sat there with no intention of leaving.
Zhong Mengfan had a smile on his face and looked much calmer than before, completely devoid of his previous impetuousness.
"I never thought that the three of us sisters would have the opportunity to sit together and drink tea and chat like this!" Zhong Mengfan put down her teacup and couldn't help but sigh, "This situation really feels like a dream!"
"Zhong Mengfan, you are indeed dreaming!" Zhong Mengxuan raised her lips with a sarcastic smile, "Or rather, you hope that everything is just a dream! When you wake up, you are still the Zhong Mengfan who has never given birth to a child."
She and Zhong Mengfan had always been at odds with each other. Now that she had found Zhong Mengfan's weak spot, how could she not step on it hard?
Zhong Mengfan's face was embarrassed for a moment, but he recovered immediately, smiled slightly, and continued, "I don't know what you are talking about. But, Mengxuan, I hope you don't forget what grandpa just said. And-"
"Grandpa is already very disappointed in you. If you start spreading rumors, I'm sure Grandpa will be even more disappointed!"
Although she was not at the Zhong family, she still knew something about what had happened in the Zhong family during this period. So, she naturally knew what Zhong Mengxuan had done, and her grandfather had said that he would no longer care about Zhong Mengxuan.
"You--" Zhong Mengxuan was furious and pointed at Zhong Mengfan, but she couldn't say anything in rebuttal.
"Mengxuan, the reason I came to talk to you is because I don't want us to continue to be at loggerheads like before." Zhong Mengfan looked at Zhong Mengxuan and continued, "After all, there is no deep hatred between us, and we are not even on opposite sides. So, I don't care about what you do. Similarly, I hope you won't interfere in my affairs."
"Haha, Zhong Mengfan, so you're afraid that I'll tell everyone about what you did!" Zhong Mengxuan finally understood. She said smugly, "Then try to please me. Maybe I'll forget what you did to me."
"If you want to say it, it's up to you," Zhong Mengfan's attitude did not soften at all, "But before you say it, think carefully about how you are going to face Grandpa's anger!"
Seeing Zhong Mengfan's fearless attitude, Zhong Mengxuan was furious. She snorted coldly and got up and left.
Zhong Nianyao, who had been watching the show from the side, couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth slightly.
Although we don’t know what Zhong Mengfan experienced when he was abroad, we can see that this experience really changed Zhong Mengfan completely.
If it were the Zhong Mengfan from before, they would definitely not be able to sit here and have a good chat now.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhong Mengfan retracted his gaze, then turned and looked at Zhong Nianyao, "Is there something on my face?"
"No." Zhong Nianyao shook her head gently, then said with a half-smile, "I just feel that after this period of time, you have really changed a lot!"
"After going through so much, if I don't change, my future life will be ruined."
At this point, Zhong Mengfan laughed at himself and then changed the subject, "By the way, come to think of it, I haven't had time to congratulate you yet! Nian Yao, I really can't believe that you would end up together with the Third Master of the Lu Family."
When she heard that Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen were actually together, she once suspected that there was something wrong with her ears and that she had heard it wrongly.
Unexpectedly, after only a short time since she left, the entire Zhong family seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes. Her brother's attitude, in particular, was something she hadn't anticipated.
In the past, she knew that her brother was a very cold person, and he was not very enthusiastic even when facing his biological sister.
Unexpectedly, after coming back this time, she found that her cold brother actually had a hint of appreciation when talking about Zhong Nian Yao, and even acknowledged Zhong Nian Yao as his sister.
Such a change made her feel uneasy.
Zhong Nianyao didn't know what Zhong Mengfan was thinking. She glanced at him and said, "So? Did you call me here to chat today just for this matter?"
"No." Zhong Mengfan shook his head, thought for a moment, and then said, "Nian Yao, you shouldn't talk about my affairs outside, right?"
"You don't want to tell me these things, do you?" Zhong Nianyao shook her head gently, feeling only amused, "Don't worry, I'm not one of those gossipers. Besides, I don't want to make grandpa and the others worry."
"Zhong Mengfan, just say what you want to say! There's no need to beat around the bush. We're not the kind of people who can afford to chat about family matters!"
