Chapter 547 Threat
Seeing Zhong Nianyao's stubborn attitude, Zhong Mengxuan was really anxious. "What do you want me to do in order to attend your engagement party?"
At this point, she had no other choice but to humbly beg Zhong Nianyao. If she couldn't attend the engagement party, she could imagine how the people in the Lu family would view her.
Especially Lu Chenran's mother, the eldest lady of the Lu family, who has always disliked her. Now she is only concerned about Zhong Nian Yao, or rather, Lu Yichen, so she has not really done anything to her.
"No matter what," Zhong Nianyao frowned slightly and spoke lazily, "Besides, considering the level of hostility between you and me, it would be best if you didn't attend, so as not to affect my mood."
"You—" Zhong Mengxuan was furious, but she also knew that she needed help now, so she could only swallow her anger. "I know that we did have many conflicts in the past. But no matter what, we are sisters connected by blood. We prosper together and suffer together. Even if you don't care about me, please think about the Zhong family instead!"
"I didn't even attend your engagement party. It would only make people outside laugh at us and think that our Zhong family is not united."
As she spoke, her eyes were fixed on Zhong Nianyao's face, as if she wanted to see something from it.
What a pity. From beginning to end, Zhong Nianyao's expression did not change at all, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking at the moment.
Zhong Nianyao looked at Zhong Mengxuan and suddenly sneered, "That's a good point, but what can I do? I don't care at all. Besides, I don't think that if you're not present, people outside will gossip about the Zhong family. So -"
She extended her hand and made a gesture of invitation, "There's nothing more to say, please go back!"
"Zhong Nianyao, you're trying to kill me, aren't you?" Zhong Mengxuan's face turned pale. At this point, she couldn't continue to use any high-sounding excuses. "You clearly know how difficult my situation is right now, and you still treat me like this? Do you have any conscience at all?"
"I don't feel guilty at all in treating you this way." Zhong Nianyao smiled indifferently, but her words made people secretly shudder. "Besides, this was your own choice. If you hadn't played tricks on me during the previous meal and suddenly interrupted me, I would definitely have asked you to attend the engagement party. But now—"
His sharp eyes fell directly on Zhong Mengxuan, "I'm unhappy, so I don't want you to attend my engagement party. On such a good day, I don't want my mood to be affected in any way."
Feeling Zhong Nianyao's gaze, Zhong Mengxuan couldn't help but take several steps back, but then she felt that her reaction seemed a bit too much. She immediately took a deep breath and calmed down. "Are you sure you want to go against me, right?"
Zhong Nianyao just smiled and said nothing, without giving any answer.
Zhong Mengxuan looked at Zhong Nianyao with a fierce look in her eyes, "Zhong Nianyao, if you really don't let me attend, don't blame me if I do something wrong. If I ruin your engagement party, it will be too late to regret it then."
She had already made up her mind that if Zhong Nian Yao didn't let her have an easy life, then she wouldn't let Zhong Nian Yao have an easy life either.
If she couldn't attend, she would definitely find a way to make Zhong Nianyao's engagement party a joke.
"Oh, really?" Zhong Nianyao's expression remained unchanged as she spoke calmly, "Then destroy her! I'll wait."
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's answer, Zhong Mengxuan was so angry that she covered her chest. She didn't expect that even after she had said so much, Zhong Nianyao still refused to give in.
She gritted her teeth, glared at Zhong Nian Yao hatefully, then turned and left angrily.
Looking at Zhong Mengxuan's leaving back, Zhong Nianyao's eyes flashed with a hint of confusion. In the end, she said nothing, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
Zhong Mengxuan held her breath and left the Zhong family, but she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart. At the same time, she also felt an uncontrollable panic in her heart.
She had also gone to her mother, but now her mother had also been kicked out of Zhong Aji, and there was nothing she could do to help her. As for her father, there was even less to say, he didn't even want to see her now.
After returning to the villa, Zhong Mengxuan was full of aggrieved feelings, but she did not dare to lose her temper in the villa, let alone show her irritability in front of anyone.
This is where Lu Chenran placed her, and the people in the villa are all Lu Chenran's people. All her actions are watched by everyone, and as long as she does something wrong, Lu Chenran will be notified immediately.
Sitting in the huge villa, Zhong Mengxuan actually felt a little desolate.
At this moment, she couldn't help but ask herself in her heart, is this the life she wants? Did she do something wrong?
For a moment, she had no answer.
She didn't come to her senses until the servant came in with someone.
Seeing the visitor, she couldn't help but frown, "Why is it you? What are you doing here?"
Time soon arrived at the day of the engagement party.
This day is a very important day for both the Zhong family and the Lu family.
Early in the morning, the Zhong family had already started preparing for the evening dinner.
Everyone was in high spirits, with smiles on their faces. Obviously, they were looking forward to this engagement party.
Because after tonight, the Zhong family and the Lu family are truly connected. In the future, relying on this in-law relationship, the Zhong family will definitely be able to move to a higher level.
If we were to ask who among them most sincerely wishes Zhong Nianyao the best, it would probably only be Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong.
Even Li Yiqiu, who had been kicked out of the Zhong family, returned to the old house today.
She and Zhong Mingyu did not divorce, they just moved out of the old house and started living separately. Zhong Mingyu would still take his son to spend the night at Li Yiqiu's place from time to time.
Although the relationship between the couple has become much weaker, it still exists.
Mr. Zhong didn't say anything about this. After all, they haven't divorced yet and are still husband and wife.
For an occasion like today, after much deliberation, the old man finally decided to let Li Yiqiu attend as well.
This decision was not made for Zhong Mingyu, but for the newly born grandson.
