Chapter 196: Isn’t It You She Likes?
If Feng Jingcheng had to say who he hated the most among the eight great wealthy families in Shangjing, Sun Mengman would be the first, the second would be the youngest from the Zheng family, Zheng Zi’ang, and the third would be Sun Jiajun, who was now dead.
He hated Zheng Zi’ang because he had no discrimination between men and women, his relationships were chaotic, he was involved in almost all of gambling, prostitution, and drugs, a true playboy scoundrel, and it was said he had caused several deaths, though all were suppressed by the Zheng family.
He hated Sun Mengman because she was too good at pretending.
When he was young, he went with his brother to attend the birthday banquet of an elder from the Sun family. He was introverted, innocent, and cute as a child, and liked to stick to Feng Zining.
Sun Mengman wanted to play alone with Feng Zining and didn’t want to bring him along, so she tricked him to the edge of a pond and kicked him in. After alarming the adults, she jumped in herself and cried that he didn’t want her to play with his brother and had pushed her in!
She made Yue Yaxin beat him harshly and forced him to apologize to her.
After all, adults’ ingrained thinking was that boys should yield to girls, and they couldn’t imagine a little girl framing a boy.
Feng Jingcheng was heartbroken for a long time and explained to Yue Yaxin for a long time. Yue Yaxin half-believed him and investigated the surveillance footage in the backyard to clear his name.
After that incident, Yue Yaxin distanced herself from the women of the Sun family and rarely gathered with them for tea.
After growing up, Sun Mengman came to apologize to him, saying she was young and ignorant, asking him to forgive her, and used this as an excuse to come to Feng Zining several times.
Her mother also invited Yue Yaxin several times, implying in her words that she wanted Sun Mengman to marry Feng Zining, but Yue Yaxin didn’t agree.
Feng Zining frowned slightly, looking puzzled: “She likes me? Doesn’t she like you?”
Feng Jingcheng: “?”
Feng Jingcheng was greatly startled: “Who told you that poisonous woman likes me?”
“If she doesn’t like you, why does she always hang around you? She keeps asking me to bring things to you, saying it’s to make amends.” Feng Zining genuinely felt puzzled.
Feng Jingcheng’s mouth twitched: “……Because she framed me when we were kids! After growing up, she used this as an excuse to get close to you through me!”
“Her mom even told our mom before about wanting you to marry her!”
“I’m telling you, her befriending Sheng Hanxiang must have something fishy! All the friends that poisonous woman makes are rich and powerful; she doesn’t even glance at those without money or power, yet suddenly she befriends an ordinary person like this…”
Feng Jingcheng sneered: “If there’s nothing fishy about this, I’ll take your surname.”
Feng Zining glanced at him, picked up his mobile phone, called his subordinate, and continued to investigate deeply the friendship between Sun Mengman and Sheng Hanxiang during high school.
And…
Feng Zining lowered his eyes to look at the information stating that Zheng Zi’ang had once pursued Sheng Hanxiang, as well as Zheng Zi’ang’s activities during high school; he needed to investigate those clearly too.
While the two were busy, Nan Yuanman had already toured the company, replacing or discarding small ornaments that affected the feng shui, and for those missing, she had Assistant Li note them down to ask Eldest Cousin for money to buy.
Feeling the company’s atmosphere become exceptionally comfortable, Nan Yuanman patted her little chubby hands in satisfaction: “All done!”
“Uncle Li, let’s go back to find Eldest Cousin!” Time to ask for little money!
“Assistant Li.” A coquettish voice came: “Is Brother Zining here? I have something to see him about.”
Assistant Li and Nan Yuanman turned around upon hearing the voice.
The first thing Nan Yuanman saw wasn’t Sun Mengman, but the soaring black energy on her body, and behind her, a ghost with a ferocious face angrily pouncing toward her…
When they pounced on Sun Mengman, they were all blocked back by the golden light emanating from her body, their soul bodies scorched and tattered but still unrelenting, as if harboring immense hatred toward her.
At that moment, Nan Yuanman felt a surge of intense ghost energy erupting from Sheng Hanxiang, who had been quietly staying as a paper figure in the small shoulder bag, her soul body showing signs of losing control.
Assistant Li suddenly felt a chilling aura spreading, and he couldn’t help but shiver. Strange, was the central air conditioner set too low? Why did it suddenly get so cold?
Meanwhile, Sun Mengman stared fixedly at the little child standing beside Assistant Li. When her gaze fell on that delicate and cute face, her hand gripping the bag tightened, and a shadow flashed through her eyes.
Indeed very similar…
Nan Yuanman pressed down on the nearly rampaging Sheng Hanxiang with one hand, her clear black-and-white eyes fixed on Sun Mengman. Sensing the sinister malice emanating from her, she uncomfortably furrowed her brow and said to Assistant Li, “Uncle Li, I don’t like her.”
She pointed at Sun Mengman and declared righteously, “Can you not let her in? She’ll ruin the feng shui field I just adjusted.”
Assistant Li looked at Sun Mengman with scrutinizing eyes upon hearing this. Before he could politely refuse, Sun Mengman smiled mildly and said, “Child, I’m your father’s friend. I have important business with him. You can’t be willful or so impolite.”
“Moreover… you can’t make decisions for your father, right?”
Assistant Li was stunned for a moment by Sun Mengman’s words, taking a while to realize she was referring to President Feng as Nan Yuanman’s father…
His expression immediately became peculiar.
Nan Yuanman tilted her head: “Who says? I can make decisions!”
“Dad said to just be myself. If I don’t like you and don’t want you here, I can have someone chase you out. Or if you have something to discuss with Dad, you can tell me, and I’ll pass it on!”
Sun Mengman’s smile nearly faltered, her sharp fingernails piercing her palm. Did Feng Zining dote on this daughter so much? Giving her such great authority? Doesn’t that mean… he dotes even more on her other half?
And such doting should have belonged to her…
Sun Mengman took a deep breath. Just wait a little longer; once she finds that bitch, she can deal with both mother and daughter together.
She decided not to engage with Nan Yuanman and directly asked Assistant Li, “Assistant Li, you’re not really going to listen to her and ask me to leave, are you? I’m a distinguished guest of Feng Group!”
Assistant Li smiled: “I listen to the little miss.”
“Miss Sun, you don’t have an appointment today. Sorry, please leave.”
Joke, doesn’t he know who actually pays his salary?
Sun Mengman never expected such a reaction from Assistant Li. Unable to maintain her mild expression, she coldly glanced at Nan Yuanman: “Fine, good for you.”
Sun Mengman also had her pride. She’d wait for the day this little bitch falls into her hands! She’ll make sure to entertain her well!
As soon as Sun Mengman left, the ghosts following her also drifted away with her.
Sheng Hanxiang, who had been rampaging in the small shoulder bag wanting to escape, gradually calmed down, though the paper figure containing her soul was still trembling slightly.
Nan Yuanman gently comforted her with pats, covered the small shoulder bag, and ran da-da-da toward the exclusive elevator straight to the president’s office, with Assistant Li following closely.
As soon as they entered, he saw Nan Yuanman take out a small paper figure, her steamed bun face very serious and solemn as she asked, “Was that auntie just now the culprit who killed you?”
Assistant Li: “?”
Who?
Miss Sun killed this paper figure??
