In a blink of an eye, a week had passed.
After Meng Rong had gone crazy at the company in the middle of the night, Mu Junze no longer stayed in the company alone. No matter how busy he was with work, he would surely carry his laptop back home to handle it.
This turned out to be a great arrangement. When Meng Nianchu felt bored, she could go to the study to chat with him. Mu Junze could also know immediately if there was anything wrong with Meng Nianchu's body. Their relationship as a couple became even closer.
However, when two people who were in love got closer and the atmosphere was ambiguous, it was inevitable that things would get a bit heated and there would be some subtle physical reactions. For example, Meng Nianchu was struggling hard to break free from Mu Junze's embrace at this moment.
"Stay away from me."
Mu Junze's eyes were burning with passion as he fixed his gaze firmly on her.
Meng Nianchu pushed him hard. "The doctor specifically told us not to do anything during this period. You should control yourself!"
Saying this made her blush.
It made Mu Junze swallow hard and hold her even tighter.
"No, let go of me quickly." Meng Nianchu couldn't resist Mu Junze's brute strength. She puffed out her cheeks and her face was bright red.
Mu Junze gently kissed her lips, then let her go after a brief moment.
He was actually so obedient that Meng Nianchu was a bit stunned. Seeing Mu Junze's earlobes slightly flushed under the bright light, the corners of Meng Nianchu's mouth twitched upward. She reached out her hand to touch them.
Mu Junze suddenly looked up. "Why aren't you going back to your room yet?"
Seeing that the desire in his eyes hadn't faded, Meng Nianchu didn't dare to "go against the wind". She kindly told him to take more rest, then quickly slipped out of the room. When she left the study, she even hid outside the door and waved at Mu Junze, grinning.
A smile appeared in Mu Junze's eyes.
Perhaps it was because of Meng's father's scolding in the hospital or because Meng Rong herself didn't dare to cause trouble after her disfigurement. After her big scene at Mu Junze's office, Meng Rong suddenly disappeared without a trace. She was unusually quiet.
After being on tenterhooks for a few days, Meng Nianchu finally relaxed when she saw that there was no sign of trouble. Because of what Meng Rong had done, Meng's father doted on Meng Nianchu even more and would always agree to whatever she wanted.
In just a few days, Meng Nianchu had gained five pounds. One day when she went out with Meng's mother, she was accidentally photographed by a netizen and the photo was posted on the Internet. Netizens all envied her, saying that it was because Mu Junze took such good care of Meng Nianchu that she had gained a little weight. It was the weight of happiness!
"What weight of happiness? She just has no self - discipline and no ambition."
After seeing these envious and flattering comments, Meng Rong sneered in the coffee shop, her eyes full of contempt. Then she angrily put down her phone. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone walking towards her.
She leaned back in her chair and a smile appeared on her face. "It's really been a long time, Mr. Ying. I heard that as soon as the filming of 'The Kite' was finished, you went to the United States to do big business. You've only just had time to come back recently. Have you made a fortune out there?"
"Just tell me what you want. Cut to the chase."
The waiter brought two cups of hot cocoa and placed them in front of the two of them. Ying You'an leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, picked up one of the cups and took a sip. His words were extremely cold.
Meng Rong didn't seem to care. She still greeted him with a smile. "I know that Mr. Ying only does things that are useful to himself. That's why I managed to contact you and wanted to tell you about this first."
Hearing her deliberately keep him in suspense, Ying You'an frowned impatiently. "Stop talking nonsense."
"Mu Junze has inherited the Mu family's fortune. Are you really not bothered by it at all, Mr. Ying?"
Seeing Ying You'an's expression change slightly, Meng Rong leaned forward. She crossed her small hands on the table. "Even though the outside world has been saying that Mr. Ying is not the kind of person who would haggle over such small things, but you're also a member of the Mu family and you've got nothing. You must feel uncomfortable, right?"
"What do you mean?" His words were even colder. Ying You'an squinted his eyes and stared at her. "And what does it matter to you?"
"Because I'm from the same world as you. I can help you."
Suddenly.
Ying You'an sneered. "Look at yourself. How can you help me? You can barely take care of yourself. You're really daydreaming."
"Since I've come to you, I've already thought of a way. If you agree, I'll tell you. If you don't, you can leave now."
After Meng Rong finished speaking, Ying You'an immediately stood up.
Then Meng Rong's meaningful words rang in his ears again. "It's just that in the future, when you see Mu Junze, you'll still be inferior to him. Everyone will also think that the Mu family let Mu Junze inherit because he's more capable than you. You're nothing."
"Shut up!"
Ying You'an turned back to look at Meng Rong. His eyes were like those of a wild beast, glowing green and extremely fierce.
If it were in normal times, Meng Rong would have been too scared to make a sound. But now she had nothing to fear. She had to take a gamble. Even if she was afraid, she had to face it head - on. Suppressing her fear, she said firmly, "If you agree to cooperate with me, I'll get what I want and you'll get what you want."
"We'll benefit from each other. We'll never contact each other again after this, and I'll never tell anyone about this."
"Why should I trust you?"
Meng Rong stood up and looked Ying You'an straight in the eye. "We're the same kind of people, poor wretches abandoned by our families."
Suddenly, Ying You'an tightened his big hand. The coldness in his eyes was directed straight at Meng Rong. Then he sneered and slightly raised his chin. "Fine."
"What are you going to do?"
A look of pride flashed across Meng Rong's face. She leaned close to Ying You'an's ear and told him every detail word by word.
In the large coffee private room, the two of them looked at each other. Ying You'an scoffed. "You're quite smart."
Meng Rong lowered her eyes, a cold look in them. "I've already convinced the person. He should have arrived at the Meng family by now."
Before she knew it, she had already set up a trap and was sitting there waiting for someone to fall into it.
And the first one to fall into it had to be Meng's father!
At this moment, Meng's father was at home having lunch with Meng Nianchu. He knew that Meng Nianchu needed the most care and concern during this period. He always felt uneasy if he didn't see her with his own eyes.
Meng Nianchu obediently took the vegetables that Meng's father had put into her porcelain bowl. She said helplessly with a smile, "Dad, you really don't need to come back for lunch every day. You're so busy with the company's affairs. Just focus on that. Mom is at home too. What could happen to me?"
"That's out of the question. My precious daughter is pregnant. As her father, I have to take good care of her. Anyway, I have the time. I feel uncomfortable if I don't see you."
Meng Nianchu giggled.
Someone knocked on the door.
Meng's father instinctively tensed up. He frowned and went to open the door. When he saw that it was Wang Long, an employee from the company, his frown gradually relaxed.
He had thought it was Meng Rong coming to cause trouble again.
"Why are you here? Didn't I tell the people in the company to leave the documents in my office for me to deal with during lunch? Why did you come all the way here?"
Meng's father scolded him unhappily, but still stepped aside to let Wang Long into the living room.
