Chapter 72 Remuneration
Hearing Zhong Nianyao's words, Meng's mother's face was not very good. She even had a hint of resentment, "Miss Zhong, you didn't tell us that Xiaorou had a health problem! Even if it was really a business, you should have explained the matter clearly!"
The smile on Zhong Nianyao's face became even brighter, but the smile did not reach her eyes, which made people feel a little cold.
As soon as he saw Zhong Nianyao's expression, Meng's father's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something was wrong.
As expected, Zhong Nianyao's expression turned much colder. "Then what does Madam Meng mean? Do you think that after you've ordered me to leave, I should shamelessly stay and persuade you with earnest advice?"
"Or do you think that only the Meng family is the most noble and that all of us must revolve around you?"
These few simple words were mixed with a chill that made everyone present shiver.
Mother Meng woke up as if from a dream, realizing that she had said the wrong thing. She had come to ask Zhong Nianyao for help today, and the words she had just said had obviously offended her.
However, for a moment, she didn't know how to apologize. Although she came to ask Zhong Nianyao for help today, in fact, she was also a little unwilling and unhappy in her heart.
Zhong Nianyao was just a junior, yet she relied on her own abilities to interfere in their family affairs. She was also ruthless when dealing with Meng Rou's situation. She even failed to fully resolve Meng Rou's situation.
Now that they've come knocking on her door, shouldn't Zhong Nian Yao be the one trying to figure out how to deal with the aftermath?
"I--" Meng's mother opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say.
"Shut up," Father Meng scolded directly. He gave Mother Meng a warning look, "Don't say another word."
Being suddenly scolded by her husband, Meng Mu felt a little aggrieved. However, thinking that the couple were all doing this for their daughter, she could only swallow her anger and dared not say anything else.
Father Meng turned his head and looked at this, and apologized directly, "Ms. Zhong, my wife was just worried about our daughter's health, so she said something extreme. Please forgive me."
"Although you don't want to admit it, I think you should know in your heart why we came to see you today. What happened before was all my fault. But because I was too worried about Xiaorou, I didn't treat you very well. We apologize to you here."
"The main reason we came here today is to ask you to save Xiaorou just this once! Just be a good person and help us this time! She is our daughter, and as parents, we really don't want to see her die young."
"Just think of it as taking pity on us two old people and please save Xiaorou again!"
His words were well-reasoned and directly lowered his posture.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely be moved by Mr. Meng's fatherly love and immediately agree to help. Unfortunately, Zhong Nianyao is not an ordinary person.
Her expression remained unchanged, and her words remained cold. "I've said it before, karma is cyclical, and retribution is inevitable. Your daughter has suffered this because she was wrong in the first place."
"I know." Father Meng didn't try to defend himself. "But she's still young. It's not worth it for her to lose her life because of this. I promise that when she recovers, I will discipline her well and will never let her make the same mistake again. I only ask you to give her one last chance."
Zhong Nianyao looked at Father Meng intently, not knowing what he was thinking.
Facing Zhong Nianyao's eyes, Father Meng's face was still full of determination.
What he just said was indeed his true feelings, so he didn't feel guilty at all.
Although in his heart, he was also angry at Meng Rou for doing such a thing, but she was his daughter after all, and he did not want to see his daughter die at such a young age.
After this matter is over, he will definitely discipline Meng Rou strictly and will never allow such a thing to happen again.
After a long time, Zhong Nianyao retracted her gaze and said lightly, "I can go to the Meng family tomorrow and show it to Meng Rou."
"Really?" Surprise flashed across Meng's mother's face and she blurted out.
Zhong Nianyao didn't even look at Meng's mother. Her eyes were still on Meng's father. "But, I have a condition."
"What conditions?"
Before Father Meng could answer, Mother Meng couldn't wait to speak, "As long as you can save Xiaorou, I will agree to any conditions you offer."
Although there was some hesitation on Mr. Meng's face, he finally nodded.
Zhong Nianyao glanced at the two of them before slowly speaking, "Let me make it clear in advance that I only save lives. Other matters have nothing to do with me."
Meng's father and mother were not very clear about what Zhong Nian Yao meant, but when they heard that Zhong Nian Yao could save Meng Rou, a hint of joy flashed through their hearts at the same time.
As for the rest, they didn't have time to think about it.
"And there's a reward." Zhong Nianyao continued, "I want you to donate 50 million to build Hope Primary Schools in the mountainous areas. As for whose name you want to use, you can discuss it among yourselves. I have no objection."
After hearing the strange reward that Zhong Nian Yao asked for, Meng's father and mother were extremely shocked for a moment and were completely confused.
However, everything returned to normal soon.
Father Meng quickly agreed, "Okay, okay. This is a good deed to accumulate merit. How could we not agree? But, Miss Zhong, in whose name should the donation be made? This—"
"If you don't care, then use Meng Rou's name," Zhong Nianyao said directly. "She did something that was already very detrimental to her virtue. If we can take this opportunity to accumulate some good karma, it would be good."
"Okay, okay, thank you Miss Zhong for your advice." Father Meng said quickly, "I'll get my secretary to take care of this matter as soon as I get back."
Because Zhong Nian Yao had already promised to go to the Meng family tomorrow, Meng's father and mother did not stay too long and soon said goodbye and left.
After saying hello to the eldest wife of the Meng family, they left in a hurry without even giving face to Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling.
After Mr. and Mrs. Meng left, Zhong Minghao couldn't help but called out to Zhong Nian Yao again.
Faced with Zhong Minghao's obstruction, Zhong Nianyao's expression became particularly ugly, "Uncle, are you going to lecture me again?"
