Chapter 5 Heartbeat
"Have you met Mr. Qin?" Su Mei asked nervously as she returned to the bedroom.
When she heard that the eldest son of the Qin family had a disfigured face, she thought it was a joke and didn't care about his specific appearance at all.
Now that it's her daughter's turn, she just hopes that the rumors are just rumors. Otherwise, if the truth is completely changed, she will not agree even if the old man gives her more.
"No." Father Meng lowered his head in shame.
Although Qin Zhuoran, the eldest son of the Qin family, is only 30 years old this year, he is already the general manager of the Qin Group and rarely appears in public. How could a small person like him have the chance to see it?
"I asked, and someone who has seen it said that only half of his face was disfigured, and you can't tell unless you get close." Su Mei excitedly handed the phone to Meng's father.
Father Meng looked at the chat history on his phone and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it's not too bad.
"Do you think Yi Yi will agree? She already hated her cousin, and now she has suffered such a big loss!" Father Meng was a little worried when he thought of his daughter's stubborn temper.
"I'll go and persuade her tonight. If she really doesn't agree, there's nothing I can do." Su Mei said helplessly.
"This is the only way! You should have a good talk with her tonight. When judging a man, you can't just look at his appearance..." Father Meng said naggingly.
Su Mei couldn't help curling her lips as she looked at Mr. Meng, who had broad shoulders and long legs and was packing things.
Only men think that looks are unimportant. When she married Meng's father because she was attracted by his face, everyone thought she had no taste, and even Meng's father himself felt that he had wronged her.
But only she herself knows how wonderful it is to marry a handsome and family-oriented man and give birth to two beautiful children.
By the time Su Mei packed her things and rushed to the hospital, it was already 7 o'clock in the evening.
"What are you eating? Who told you to order these things for your sister?" Su Mei was furious when she entered the ward and saw two people eating spicy crayfish.
"Mom, mom, this was ordered by my sister herself. It has nothing to do with me." Meng Yuanliang explained quickly. But he knew that if he spoke a little slower, he might get punched in the face.
"Why are you eating these? Your injury hasn't healed yet! Stop eating. Come, drink some bird's nest!" As he said that, he poured out a bowl of bird's nest from the thermos.
"Oh, you're eating bird's nest! It seems that your injury was worth it!" Meng Yuanliang also came over.
It's no wonder that he was curious. Although they were also members of the Meng family, their treatment was really incomparable to that of his second uncle's family. Normally, only my cousin and second aunt have the chance to drink bird's nest.
"Shut up now. I'll give you a taste too! Otherwise you'll be jealous every day!" Su Mei said as she poured a bowl for Meng Yuanliang.
"You drink it yourself. I won't drink what this woman drinks." Meng Yuanliang quickly dodged.
It was also Meng Yitong’s first time to drink bird’s nest, and she felt it was no different from tremella soup.
"Mom, sister, I'm leaving first! Call me if you need anything." Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Meng Yuanliang cleaned up the garbage on the table and carried it out together with other garbage in the ward.
Meng Yitong took a glance and thought that this younger brother was really nice. He was sunny, handsome, lively, hardworking, and had good sense. He was not as bad as the original owner and her bestie complained about.
"Yi Yi, what do you think about what your grandfather said before?" Su Mei saw that Meng Yitong had almost finished eating, so she thought for a moment and asked.
Meng Yitong was stunned by the question, and it took her a while to realize that her mother was asking about the proxy marriage. You clearly told me in the afternoon that you absolutely didn't agree, why did you change your tone now?
Meng Yitong, who had just arrived, pondered for a moment, lowered her head and asked, "Did grandpa say something?"
When Su Mei saw her daughter's depressed look, she immediately felt distressed and quickly hugged Meng Yitong to comfort her, "It's okay, it's okay. Mom is just asking for your opinion. If you don't agree, I will go back and reject your grandfather. At worst, our whole family will move out."
"It's just that the conditions your grandfather offered this time are a little too good. Mom is afraid that you will regret it in the future."
"What conditions?"
"Your grandfather said that if you agree to marry into the Qin family, he will give you 5% of the shares of the Meng Group, and he will also give you the Bishui Villa. Didn't you want the Bishui Villa very much before?"
Meng Yitong was completely shocked. Meng Group is a huge enterprise with a market value of hundreds of billions. She could not spend all the 5% of the shares in her lifetime.
The Bishui Villa is a large ecological estate with an investment of nearly 10 billion yuan, which the original owner wanted in his dreams. She didn't understand why her cousin had one but she didn't, even though they were both granddaughters.
Meng Yitong believed that if the original owner heard this, he would agree immediately. In fact, Meng Yitong herself wanted to agree, but there was nothing she could do. She was tired of being poor. Her biggest dream in her previous life was financial freedom.
Now that there is such an opportunity in front of her, how can she not be tempted?
Seeing that her daughter didn't say anything, Su Mei continued, "And Mom asked around, and found out that Qin Zhuoran only had half of his face burned and had a little scar, so it's not as bad as the rumors say."
At this moment, Su Mei had completely forgotten that she was one of the people who spread the rumors the most.
"But the person he likes is my cousin, can I accept that?" Meng Yitong had no aversion to arranged marriages.
Meng Yitong was only 23 years old before she traveled through time and had no experience in love, but she believed that feelings could be cultivated. Didn't the ancients never meet each other before getting married? Aren’t the relationship still good after marriage?
"Oh, what's so important about your cousin? They are after the Meng family, and they chose your cousin only because your second uncle is the heir of the Meng family. Now your grandfather has given you 5% of the Meng family's shares, and your status is no worse than your cousin! In fact, from the perspective of practical benefits, marrying you is much better than marrying your cousin!"
"If my cousin gets married, won't grandpa give her this share?"
