Chapter 900 Comparison
A series of words spoken in a tone that sounded like an accusation instantly wiped out the warm atmosphere in the living room, and was replaced by awkwardness and silence.
Everyone's eyes fell on the person who said this. It was none other than Zhong Mengfan. At this moment, she looked innocent, as if she asked this question out of curiosity and without any malicious intention.
"Meng Fan." It was Zhong Jinghao who spoke. He frowned, his face looking a little ugly. "If you can't speak, then shut up."
Although Zhong Mengfan is his real sister now, it has to be said that he likes the smart and sensible fake sister more.
In an occasion like this, Zhong Mengfan actually didn't know what to say and what not to say. This was simply looking for trouble. Did she really think that no one present could see through her little thoughts?
"What? You can't say that yet." Zhong Mengfan still looked nonchalant, but her eyes were filled with malice. "I just asked a question casually, is it really that exaggerated? Or—"
Her gaze fell on Baili Leyao, and she said meaningfully, "Is there something that you can't say?"
Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong's faces suddenly turned gloomy, and the atmosphere in the living room was so quiet that it was a little scary.
Everyone's breathing became much lighter. They all looked at the unpleasant expressions of Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong, and then looked at Zhong Mengfan who still looked smug.
Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling both wanted to beat Zhong Mengfan to death. Although she was their daughter, they had to admit that she was really an idiot.
Is this Baili Leyao actually Zhong Nianyao's biological mother? What does it have to do with them? This idiot just stares at Baili Leyao and tries to find fault with her. Doesn't she know that today is the day Zhong Mingxin returns?
Mr. and Mrs. Zhong had waited so many years for Zhong Mingxin to finally return safely. Now was a time for celebration, but she had to be so ignorant and provoke them. Wasn't this clearly meant to anger the two elders?
Just now, Zhong Jinghao had already reminded her, but she still continued like this. Doesn't she understand what people are saying?
Before Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong could say anything, a clear voice rang out. It was none other than Zhong Nianyao who spoke.
"Why, you're very interested in our family affairs, aren't you?" Zhong Nianyao looked at Zhong Mengfan and raised her eyebrows. "Besides, you said I don't look like my mother, so do you look alike to my uncle and aunt? If I hadn't told you, I wouldn't have noticed! Zhong Mengfan, you don't look alike to either my uncle or my aunt!"
"Zhong Nianyao, what do you mean?" Zhong Mengfan almost jumped up immediately. She pointed at Zhong Nianyao's nose and started scolding, "What are you implying? Explain clearly. How am I not like my parents? You are slandering me. I will not let you go."
"Oh, then shouldn't you give me an explanation as well?" Zhong Nianyao looked at Zhong Mengfan with a sarcastic smile on her lips. "Could it be that you forgot what you just said? Why? You're the only one who can say it and I can't, right? Why? Is it because you're so shameless?"
"you--"
Zhong Mengfan was so angry that he couldn't speak, but he couldn't say anything to refute. He could only blush and point his finger at Zhong Nian Yao, shaking with anger.
A dangerous glint flashed in Zhong Nianyao's eyes. She looked at Zhong Mengfan and her voice was like ice. "I remember saying before that I hate people pointing fingers at me the most. If you don't want your finger anymore, I can cut it off for you."
The body's instinctive reaction was much faster than the brain's, and Zhong Mengfan subconsciously retracted his fingers.
Then, she felt that her behavior was too cowardly. However, even if it was like this, she did not dare to point her finger at Zhong Nianyao again.
There was a voice in her heart telling her that Zhong Nianyao was not just talking, but actually doing what she said. She did not dare to risk her fingers.
"Nianyao, Mengfan can't talk, so don't be angry with her." Zheng Siling quickly put on a smile and apologized, "Auntie is here to apologize to you on her behalf. I hope you can be magnanimous and not get angry with her."
If it were in the past, she would definitely not apologize so readily. However, she had witnessed Zhong Nianyao's mysterious methods before, and she was really afraid that Zhong Nianyao would use these methods on Zhong Mengfan.
Although she was very disappointed with Zhong Mengfan, and even vaguely missed the old Zhong Mengfan, after all, this was her own flesh and blood, and she naturally didn't want anything to happen to Zhong Mengfan.
Zhong Mengfan was very dissatisfied and wanted to speak up to refute.
However, facing the cold warning looks from his parents and brother, all the words that were on the tip of his tongue were immediately swallowed back.
Zhong Nianyao looked at Zhong Mengfan with a half-smile and said quietly, "Of course I won't bother with a brainless person. But, Zhong Mengfan, I have to admit, you really can't compare to the thing that once occupied your body!"
"At least, that thing is better than you in every aspect. You probably didn't know that! After joining Zhong's company, she has made a lot of achievements. She is completely different from you, a parasite who only knows how to rely on your parents."
In this family, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention what happened to Zhong Mengfan.
Now that Zhong Nianyao said this so carelessly, everyone's faces had different expressions. However, no one said anything. After all, the reason why the situation turned out like this today was all Zhong Mengfan's own fault, and no one else could be blamed.
Zhong Mengfan's face became extremely ugly, and when he looked at Zhong Nian Yao, the hatred in his eyes was almost turning into reality.
However, she didn't say anything else. She knew very well that if she continued to pester him, she would be the only one who would suffer. Now even her parents and brother didn't stand by her side, what else could she do?
Ever since she woke up, she'd always had a bad feeling in her heart. She felt like there was a barrier between her and her family. Although they never said it, she could tell from their behavior that her parents and brother missed the thing that once occupied her body.
Zhong Nianyao was using this incident to stab her, and she really wanted to get angry. However, she sadly discovered that she no longer seemed to have the qualifications to get angry.
