Chapter 449: You’re Not Welcome Here (2)

"Lu Cheng, please, help my brother! Please, help my brother!"

Meng Sijia’s appearance immediately drew the attention of many people. After all, it hadn’t been long since she had come to pick a fight with Shen Nian, only to be sent packing by Lu Cheng.

In fact, some people were still using the incident as fodder for their daily gossip.

On top of that, news about Meng Chengyu had been circulating widely throughout the company for the past few days. So, the moment Meng Sijia spoke, she instantly became the center of attention.

"Beauty Meng, why are you coming to us about your brother’s predicament?"

Shen Nian made no effort to hide her displeasure. Even the name she used, "Beauty Meng," was a jab at Meng Sijia’s self-proclaimed title as the "Flower of the Entertainment Department."

In Shen Nian’s eyes, to be called the "Flower of the Entertainment Department," one needed not only exceptional artistic talent, but also good character.

Shen Nian didn’t know how talented Meng Sijia was artistically, but at the very least, her character was hardly praiseworthy.

’After all, what kind of character could a woman who’s so eager to be a homewrecker possibly have?’

At the thought of Meng Sijia coveting her husband, Shen Nian instinctively pulled Lu Cheng a step back, as if afraid Meng Sijia might touch him.

"Lu Cheng, I know you can do something. If you’re just willing to put in a good word for my brother, I’ll be incredibly grateful. I’ll do anything you ask, anything at all!"

Meng Sijia had only thought of Lu Cheng after learning that the Qin family had refused to speak on Meng Chengyu’s behalf, making his prison sentence all but inevitable.

Although Lu Cheng certainly had a bright future ahead of him, he didn’t yet have that kind of influence. What Meng Sijia was really counting on, of course, was the Chu Family backing him.

Shen Nian’s expression darkened instantly upon hearing Meng Sijia’s last words.

’She’ll do anything! Is Meng Sijia actually offering to sleep with Lu Cheng right here in front of me, his wife, and in public no less?!’

’I have to admit, I’ve really underestimated her shamelessness!’

"I don’t understand. If your own Meng Family can’t do anything, what makes you think you can come begging my husband for help? Besides, everyone is well aware of what your brother did. He’s guilty of heinous crimes, and you want Lu Cheng to plead his case? Are you trying to ruin Lu Cheng?!"

As soon as Shen Nian finished speaking, many people in the crowd began to whisper among themselves. The scandal involving Meng Chengyu was so widely discussed that of course they’d all heard about it.

They found themselves agreeing with Shen Nian. They were just ordinary people, and to them, a man that wicked should be punished by the law. How could he possibly be let go just because someone begged on his behalf?

Besides, no matter how capable Lu Cheng was, he was just a group leader! For the eldest daughter of the Meng Family to come begging him and say such things... her intentions were truly...

"I’m telling you, there’s more to the Meng Family’s eldest daughter than meets the eye. I used to just think she was impossibly arrogant, but I never realized she was this calculating! She’s actually using her own brother’s crisis as an excuse to make a move on a man!"

"Exactly! And of all the men to hit on, she picks one whose wife is standing right next to him! It’s just shameless! We should probably stand further back. We don’t want her turning her attention to one of us!"

"Mr. Lu, Sister-in-law Shen, don’t be fooled by her words! You don’t want to get mixed up in the Meng Family’s affairs!"
