Chapter 492: Attention
"Who exactly is the enemy that Zhong Nianyao mentioned?" Li Yiqiu looked at Zhong Mengxuan intently. "Tell me the truth, then I can find a way to help you."
Originally, Zhong Mengxuan didn't want to say anything, but under Li Yiqiu's oppressive gaze, she finally opened her mouth, "It's Lu Chenran's mother."
"What?"
After hearing Zhong Mengxuan's reply, Li Yiqiu felt dizzy. She leaned her hand on the sofa armrest and felt better after a while. Then she reached out and grasped Zhong Mengxuan's hand tightly. She asked, "Are you telling the truth? Who told you that?"
"Zhong Nian Yao told me this before." Zhong Mengxuan lowered her head and replied.
She only said that it was Zhong Nianyao who said it, but she didn't say whether it was true or not. However, from her attitude, it can be seen that it is true. At least, she has already accepted this fact in her heart.
"How could this happen?" Li Yiqiu lowered her head, her voice trembling slightly. "How could it be her? Isn't she Lu Chenran's mother? How could she find a woman for Lu Chenran when he's already married?"
When she said this, she seemed to suddenly think of something, looked at Zhong Mengxuan suddenly, and then said, "What on earth did you do?"
No mother would find a woman for her son while her daughter-in-law is still pregnant, especially since Lu Chenran's wife, Long Jiarui, is the daughter of the Long family.
No matter how ignorant Lu Chenran's mother was, she would never do such a thing. Especially since she came from a high-class family, she would have disdained to do such a thing.
The only explanation was that Lu Chenran's mother was targeting Zhong Mengxuan. Besides his wife, Long Jiarui, the only woman around Lu Chenran was Zhong Mengxuan. The decision to send a woman like this was clearly related to the woman close to Lu Chenran.
Seeing Li Yiqiu's anxious look, Zhong Mengxuan began to tell everything that happened between her and the eldest lady of the Lu family.
After listening to Zhong Mengxuan's story, Li Yiqiu felt her head ache even more. She was now wondering how she had taught Zhong Mengxuan in the past to make her so stupid.
Why offend Lu Chenran's mother when there are so many people to offend? How can I live my life from now on? If Zhong Mengxuan was Lu Chenran's wife, it would be better. But she is just a mistress without any name or status.
"I didn't mean it." Zhong Mengxuan curled her lips. "If Lu Chenran's mother hadn't gone too far, I wouldn't have fought back, and I would have kept our promise."
"You--" Li Yiqiu pointed at Zhong Mengxuan and spoke, but didn't know what to say.
After a long moment, she put her hand down and sighed deeply. "Forget it. Now that things have come to this, there's no point in pursuing what happened in the past. The most important thing now is to find a way to consolidate your position in Lu Chenran's heart. Then, you have to get pregnant as soon as possible."
"If you have truly chosen Lu Chenran for your whole life and are determined not to leave him even if you are not officially married, then you should give birth to a child for him. With a child, your bond will never be severed."
"However, if you haven't figured it out yet, don't rush into having children, as it will only affect your future."
"I know." Zhong Mengxuan nodded, and then a hint of impatience appeared on her face. "But, this Zhong Nianyao is really too cruel. I just wanted to go over and have a meal, but she rejected me so ruthlessly, without considering sisterhood at all."
"Don't say that anymore." Li Yiqiu said directly, "Please listen closer."
Looking at Li Yiqiu's mysterious look, Zhong Mengxuan didn't say anything and just walked over to her.
Li Yiqiu whispered a few words in Zhong Mengxuan's ear, and then Zhong Mengxuan's complexion improved at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even her eyes became brighter.
only--
After Li Yiqiu finished speaking, Zhong Mengxuan was a little skeptical, "Is this really possible? What if—"
"There's no such thing as a one-time event," Li Yiqiu said seriously, looking at Zhong Mengxuan, "This is your only chance."
Zhong Mengxuan gritted her teeth, finally nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry! I know what to do."
In the next few days, Zhong Nian Yao did not go out, but stayed at home obediently.
As for Lu Yichen, if the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to the mountain. He insisted on carrying out this sentence to the end. In the past few days, he came to the Zhong family to report almost every day.
Even Mr. Zhong joked that this was not finding a grandson-in-law, but marrying one.
Lu Yichen was not angry about this, but felt very happy instead.
In the blink of an eye, the day agreed upon with the Lu family has arrived.
Mr. Zhong, Mrs. Zhong, and the people from the first house were already prepared. However, before leaving, there was one more person, Lin Wanrou.
Although Zhong Jinghao and Lin Wanrou's relationship was almost settled, they had not yet gotten married, so Lin Wanrou was not told about Zhong Nianyao's affairs.
However, Zhong Nianyao herself suggested that Lin Wanrou go together.
It’s not because she likes Lin Wanrou so much, but because Lin Wanrou will be Zhong Jinghao’s fiancée, and she and Zhong Jinghao are about to get married.
Although it is understandable to hide such a big thing from Lin Wanrou, it is not a good idea after all.
In order to give face to Zhong Jinghao, they finally decided to invite Lin Wanrou.
Lin Wanrou had a faint smile on her face, and it was obvious that she was very happy. Although she only knew that she would meet with Zhong Nianyao's boyfriend to discuss the engagement, she didn't know who Zhong Nianyao's boyfriend was. However, this did not prevent her from being happy.
For the Zhong family to invite her to such an occasion, it was a sign of their respect for her. How could she not be happy to be able to participate in such an important event for the Zhong family before getting married?
Everyone showed great importance to this meeting, except Zhong Nianyao, the person involved, who did not feel nervous at all.
As promised, they arrived at the agreed restaurant. After getting off the car, everyone entered the restaurant and someone came up immediately to take them in.
Lin Wanrou followed Zhong Jinghao, her heart already filled with turmoil. She couldn't help but tug at his sleeve and whispered, "Jinghao, who is Nian Yao's boyfriend? Why did the two families meet here?"
It’s not because the hotel is so luxurious, but because it is the hotel where state banquets are held.
