"Thank you, Uncle, for your understanding. I have to go now," said Meng Chuyue as she was about to leave.
Meng Yajun didn’t expect her to be so heartless.
He was stunned for a moment, then anxiously called out, "Cousin, we are direct relatives, the closest family you have right now. Can’t you make an exception for us just this once?"
Meng Chuyue scoffed, "Direct relatives? Let me remind you how you came to live in your current home."
Meng Yajun gritted his teeth, "...I know our parents were wrong, Sister Chuyue. I promise you, once I get into a good university and start earning money, I will definitely pay you back every dime."
Meng Chuyue looked at him as if he were a fool, then said coldly, "Is this about money? Please leave. And just a reminder, many students brought their bodyguards, and if you provoke them by standing here, you’ll bear the consequences."
No sooner had Meng Chuyue finished speaking than two top-of-the-line luxury cars pulled up in front of them.
First came six solemn-faced, tall male bodyguards, followed by the glamorous Shen Wenqian and luxuriously dressed Shen Wenxi.
Shen Wenqian walked into the shop as if no one else existed.
Shen Wenxi first looked at Meng Chuyue carefully, then turned her gaze to Meng Yajun and the others and asked her in a gentle tone, "Who are they?"
"Just asking for directions," Meng Chuyue replied indifferently and stepped into the shop.
Meng Yajun wanted to object, but Shen Wenxi snapped sharply, "Go and ask somewhere else. Don’t be an eyesore here."
Many people praised his good looks; how could he now be an eyesore to this person?
She was so beautiful, how could this person treat her ?
Nevertheless, she was determined to get into this training session, which would give her the opportunity to become the girlfriend of this evidently wealthy and powerful man.
Although Shen Ci was handsome and already Meng Chuyue’s boyfriend,
this man, though not as handsome as Shen Ci, was still quite attractive and even wealthier, more to her liking.
She took a deep breath and, while shouting "Sister Chuyue, wait for me," hurried toward Meng Chuyue.
However, after only a few steps, she was grabbed by one of Shen Wenxi’s bodyguards and thrown to the side.
Meng Yinhua quickly went to help her.
Meng Yuzhu didn’t expect this outcome, she cried while protesting, "How can you do this? I’m not lying to you, Meng Chuyue is really my cousin, don’t believe me - just ask her."
Shen Wenxi held her head high, "No need to ask. Even if she is your cousin, if she says you are just asking for directions, then that’s what you are. Leave now or I’ll have you beaten."
After saying this, Shen Wenxi left with a flick of his sleeve.
It was getting late, he needed to hurry up and book today’s noodles for lunch. If he missed it, the day would be ruined.
Meng Yuzhu watched Shen Wenxi’s retreating figure resentfully, sniffled hard, and muttered under her breath, "Meng Chuyue, you’re such a jerk!"
Meng Yinhua shook his head and scolded her coldly, "You’re the jerk. I never imagined you’d turn out . Go home and reflect on your actions, or else, don’t blame me for disowning you."
Meng Yuzhu wanted to argue, but with Shen Wenxi’s bodyguards watching like hungry tigers, she could only follow Meng Yinhua away, swallowing her anger.
Meng Yajun and Meng Jinhua looked at each other, stunned. After a while, they also reluctantly left.
Time turned back to the moment Shen Wenqian walked into the fruit shop...
As soon as she entered and saw Shen Ci, she switched to a gentle and demure demeanor, smiled softly at Shen Ci, and said in a gentle voice, "Fifth brother, congratulations on acing the college entrance exams this year."
Shen Ci passed her a set of papers without expression, "It’s getting late. Go upstairs and start working on these."
Shen Wenqian blinked, hiding the fierceness in her eyes, and took the papers with a smile, "Okay, fifth brother. Let’s chat during our lunch break."
