Chapter 357: Chapter 357
As she was thinking, Chen Meng’er looked up at Zheng Yanan. Zheng Yanan happened to look up at Chen Meng’er as well, and their eyes met.
When Zheng Yanan saw Chen Meng’er, she quickly moved her eyes away.
However, in the blink of an eye. Chen Meng’er saw hatred, jealousy, and a hint of fear in Zheng Yanan’s eyes. Chen Meng’er could understand this jealousy, but Chen Meng’er indicated that she could not understand this hatred and jealousy. However, even if Chen Meng’er was curious, she would not specifically ask Zheng Yanan for this.
“I overheard it. I only heard my father say that Zheng Yanan’s family seemed to have offended an extraordinary person.” Zhao Min was only a 13-year-old child after all. She only heard a little about the conversation between their parents. From the conversation between their parents, she could tell that Zheng Yanan’s family was about to collapse.
What Zhao Min did not understand, Chen Meng’er understood more than half of it when she heard Zhao Min’s words.
Many people present had witnessed what happened at her birthday party that day. And who were the people present at that time? They were all shrewd people. They were used to playing by the rules. Originally, this was the time for the change of leadership. It was also the time for everyone to wait and see. And this side was very important. If one stood on the right side, then before the next generation, one’s career would be smooth sailing.
But if one stood on the wrong side, then one would be sorry. Then, one would be demoted.
And the people who were still hesitating and waiting. After experiencing Chen Meng’er’s tenth birthday banquet, they no longer wavered. They all stood on Nangong Zhen’s side. And even those who had originally decided to stand on Zheng Yuan’s side changed their minds and stood on Nangong Zhen’s side, this time, the gap between the two who had almost the same approval ratings was widened.
What Chen Meng’er did not expect was that things were not just like this. Not only was Zheng Yuan’s situation in danger during the general election. The other members of the Zheng family were also affected.
Even those who had a grudge with the Zheng family saw this opportunity and began to look for some dark side of the Zheng family. The evidence of the previous crimes of the Zheng family were also dug out one by one. One could imagine how difficult the Zheng family’s current situation was.
And the main culprit, Zheng Yannan, was even more miserable in the Zheng family. Her grandfather, who had doted on her dearly, slapped her twice. He said that he did not want to see her in the future. This was also because she had been kicked out of the Zheng family. And her father rarely stayed at home after that incident. Her mother cried all day long.
In just one night, Zheng Yannan’s life had undergone a 180 degree change. This was hard for her to accept.
Zhao Min was so excited that she wanted to say something more. However, when she saw Nangong Lin walking towards them, she immediately stopped talking. Zhao Min didn’t like Zheng Yannan very much. Similarly, she didn’t like Nangong Lin very much, even though her father had asked her to build a good relationship with Nangong Lin. However, every time, she would only agree verbally. In reality, she would stay as far away from Nangong Lin as possible. “Meng’er, why is Nangong Lin Here?” Zhao Min whispered into Chen Meng’er’s ear. Although Nangong Lin didn’t cause trouble for Chen Meng’er, the way she looked at Chen Meng’er previously was filled with hostility.
Chen Meng’er also saw Nangong Lin walking towards them. To be honest, if Chen Meng’er had to choose between Zheng Yanan and one of Nangong Lin as friends, Chen Meng’er would definitely choose Zheng Yanan without a second thought. Although Zheng Yanan often said some nasty things. Nangong Lin, on the other hand, didn’t do anything. However, from this point alone, it could be seen that Zheng Yanan was straightforward. The expressions around her were all displayed. As for Nangong Lin, she was a scheming person. Usually, this kind of person would stab you in the back without making a sound.
“Chen Meng’er, you have been on leave for a few days. The teacher has taught a new class. I have some notes here. You can take them.” Nangong Lin did not expect that this beautiful Chen Meng’er, who made her envious and jealous, would actually have such an identity. When she found out about Chen Meng’er’s identity, she was very glad. She was glad that she had not done those things yet.
And when her father found out that she was in the same class as Chen Meng’er, he constantly whispered in her ear, urging her to build a good relationship with Chen Meng’er. And Nangong Lin had another secret in her heart that no one knew. She wanted to build a good relationship with Chen Meng’er not only because of Chen Meng’er’s identity, but also because of the mixed-blood boy who stood beside Chen Meng’er on the day of Chen Meng’er’s birthday party.
When Nangong Lin first saw the mixed-blood boy who had a cold expression but was exceptionally handsome, her heart sank.
If Chen Meng’er knew that Nangong Lin dared to spy on her Yuwen Jing, she probably wouldn’t reject Nangong Lin’s “good intentions” in her usual tone. “Thank you, but there’s no need.” Chen Meng’er definitely wouldn’t even look at Nangong Lin.
“Then if you need any help, let me know,” Nangong Lin said as if she was very familiar with Chen Meng’er.
“Okay.” Chen Meng’er still gave Nangong Lin attention.
As long as Nangong Lin didn’t provoke her, Chen Meng’er didn’t mind giving Nangong Lin some attention. However, if Nangong Lin didn’t know what was good for her, then she definitely wouldn’t be polite.
After Nangong Lin left, Zhao Min came up to Chen Meng’er and said in puzzlement, “Meng’er, what did you do during this period of time when you were on leave? Why did Nangong Lin try to please you so much?”
Chen Meng’er shrugged at Zhao Min. “If you don’t know, how would I know? I guess Nangong Lin must have been provoked.”
