Chapter 92: Celebration Banquet
Ever since she promised Lu Yichen, Zhong Nianyao has been thinking about telling this matter to Mr. Zhong and the others, but she has never found an opportunity.
Today, she took advantage of this opportunity and said it directly.
But unexpectedly, after hearing her words, the scene suddenly became quiet.
Noticing something was wrong, Zhong Nianyao raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong? Is there anything going on on the 10th of next month?"
"Nian Yao, can you change the time?" Zheng Siling said directly, "Dad has just decided to hold a celebration banquet for Jinghao on the 10th of next month. It would be a shame if you didn't attend then."
This celebration banquet was specially held for her son, so she naturally hoped that everyone in the Zhong family would be present. This was also to let everyone see how outstanding her son was.
As for Zhong Nianyao, she also wanted to let Zhong Nianyao see the importance that the old man attached to Zhong Jinghao. At the same time, she also wanted to make Zhong Nianyao regret her choice this time. Although she was kind to Zhong Nianyao in front of the old man and the old lady, in her heart, she still hated Zhong Nianyao for what she had done.
If Zhong Nianyao hadn't claimed to have a video to deceive them, their eldest wife wouldn't have lost the 2% stake. She wanted Zhong Nianyao to see who the future heir of the Zhong family was.
"Yes!" Old Master Zhong also began to persuade, "Yaoyao, why don't you leave a few days later? Then we can attend the celebration banquet together. It's also a good opportunity to get to know the company's top executives! After all, you will have shares in the company."
When they heard Mr. Zhong mention the shares, the smiles on Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling's faces froze for a moment, but they quickly recovered.
They felt uncomfortable when they thought that Zhong Nianyao held 15% of the company's shares.
They also understood that both they and Zhong Mingyu were coveting Zhong Nianyao's shares. However, as long as Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were around, they would never dare to act rashly.
Zhong Nianyao didn't notice the changes in Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling's mentality. She just looked at Grandpa Zhong, then smiled and shook her head, "Grandpa, I've already planned everything for this trip. It would be too troublesome to change it now. I'm not the main character of this celebration party, so even if I don't attend, it won't have any impact."
"As for the company's affairs, you know I never intend to get involved. So there's no need for me to get to know those senior executives!"
She is very self-aware and feels that it is easier to do her old job than to deal with those trivial matters.
"You kid." Madam Zhong didn't really care whether Zhong Nianyao was present or not. She reached out and patted her on the shoulder, then continued with a smile, "Since you've already made all the arrangements, there's no need to change the time just to accommodate us. Just have fun when the time comes."
Mr. Zhong originally wanted to persuade her, but after hearing what Mrs. Zhong had said, he did not continue speaking, which was considered as her tacit agreement.
Zheng Siling was somewhat unwilling, but Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong's attitudes were clear, so she didn't dare to say anything.
After chatting with Mr. Zhong and the others for a while, Zhong Nianyao also went back to her room.
However, as soon as I went upstairs, I saw Zhong Mengfan at the stairs.
At this moment, Zhong Mengfan had completely lost her usual cheerful demeanor. Her face was haggard, and there were dark circles under her eyes, clearly indicating she hadn't gotten enough rest. Although only in her twenties, she seemed to be immersed in a gloomy haze, giving off a very depressing vibe.
She was looking at Zhong Nianyao who was walking towards her with a sinister look, and the hatred in her eyes was almost visible.
Zhong Nianyao was not surprised at all by Zhong Mengfan's hatred. However, she did not have the energy to pay attention to Zhong Mengfan, so when she passed by him, she did not even glance at him, let alone say hello.
"Zhong Nian Yao, you feel guilty, so you don't dare to see me, right?" Zhong Mengfan's voice was a little hoarse, without the sweetness of the past, but with an indescribable sense of vicissitudes.
Zhong Nianyao, who had originally planned to ignore him, also stopped at this moment. She turned around and looked at Zhong Mengfan, only feeling amused, "Why should I feel guilty? You didn't feel guilty after doing something like that, so I certainly won't feel guilty either."
"you--"
Being ridiculed like this, Zhong Mengfan's face turned even uglier. "Zhong Nianyao, don't be so proud. How long do you think you can be so proud? You are just relying on your grandpa and grandma's love for you, so you dare to act so domineeringly in this family. How long do you think they can protect you? One day, you will suffer the consequences of your own actions."
"Don't bother with that." Zhong Nianyao raised her lips with a hint of sarcasm. "If you have time, you should take care of yourself! Your ugly face is really disgusting to see!"
"Zhong Nianyao, how dare you scold me?"
Zhong Mengfan's face suddenly became fierce. She took a step forward, raised her hand, and was about to slap Zhong Nian Yao.
Zhong Nian Yao would never give the other party a chance. She stretched out her hand and grabbed Zhong Mengfan's hand that was about to fall. Then she raised her other hand and dropped it with lightning speed, giving Zhong Mengfan a hard slap in the face.
Before he could react, Zhong Mengfan felt a burning pain on his cheek, and even a buzzing sound came from his right ear. It was obvious how hard the slap had been.
"How dare you hit me?"
"Why wouldn't I dare to hit you?" Zhong Nianyao sneered, "Who do you think you are? You're trying to hit me, do you think I'll just stand there and take the beating?"
"I'm going to tell grandpa and grandma," Zhong Mengfan looked at Zhong Nianyao with a murderous look in his eyes, "If you dare to hit me, I will never let you go."
"Then go ahead and tell me!" Zhong Nianyao had no intention of stopping him. She looked up, her gaze landing on the surveillance camera at the stairwell. "Why I hit you should have been recorded here clearly. This will also give them a chance to judge whether I should have slapped you or not."
"Of course, we also want them to see if you have any remorse after doing something like that."
