If that was really the case, it would not be surprising that Wang Long did what he did later. After all, in the past, Wang Long was almost Meng Rong's right-hand man, and later he was in charge of all the company's affairs, big and small.
She never expected that the two of them had already hooked up at that time. She really underestimated Meng Rong's ability. She could even poach people from beside Father Meng.
"Humph."
Meng Nianchu let out a cold snort, and her expression grew more and more sinister.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded behind her. She turned around and saw Meng Rong running in a hurry straight into Father Meng's room.
"Dad, how are you!"
When Father Meng saw her come to Shangting, he instantly tensed up, fearing that she would do something headache - inducing again. His sword - shaped eyebrows knitted tightly as he said in a hurry, "Why are you here again? Go out quickly. Don't wander around here!"
"Dad!" Meng Rong's eyes were red as she sat down beside Father Meng. "I'm your daughter after all. With such a big thing happening to the Meng family, how could I not come and take a look? How's your health? Are you feeling better? I've seen on Weibo what's happened to the Meng family in the past two days. Don't worry too much. It will all be resolved."
Meng Rong gently pulled up the corner of Father Meng's quilt. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Meng Nianchu standing at the door. Her eyes darkened, and then she straightened her chest and loudly scolded, "Didn't you say you'd take good care of Dad! He was fine just a couple of days ago, but suddenly he fell ill. How did you take care of him!"
"Don't think that just because you're pregnant you can sit back and relax and ignore your parents. Having a baby isn't that precious!"
Seeing her glaring as if Meng Nianchu owed her millions, Meng Nianchu gently stroked her belly with her small hand. Her eyes were fixed tightly on Meng Rong as she walked into the room step by step.
For some reason, when Meng Rong saw her approaching, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
She unconsciously moved back on the bed, swallowed hard, and suddenly raised her voice, "Why do you keep staring at me! Am I wrong? You just didn't take good care of Dad. With such a grown - up person living here, you still let him get sick. What else can you do!"
"Wang Long." Meng Nianchu's lips touched as she spoke coldly.
Meng Rong was stunned.
Meng Nianchu had already stood in front of her, looking down at her from above, "I remember last year on Dad's birthday, the two of us went to Dad's company. I remember that Wang Long had just joined the company not long ago at that time, and he had a crush on you."
"You're talking nonsense!" Meng Rong suddenly stood up from the bed.
Meng Nianchu remained calm and still looked at her, "You know exactly what I'm talking about."
The speed of Meng Rong's chest rising and falling accelerated. Then her face tightened, and she shouted firmly, "Don't blame everything on me! So what if that bastard Wang Long had a crush on me? I'm not familiar with him! You're just bringing this up at this time to make Dad suspect that I did this!"
"You've already ruined me like this, and you still won't let it go. When will you stop!"
Meng Nianchu took another step closer to Meng Rong. The two of them were face to face, their breaths intertwining under their noses. Meng Nianchu said coldly, "You'd better watch out."
Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Meng Rong turned to look at Father Meng, then sat back beside him with a wronged look on her face. "Dad, look at what Meng Nianchu is doing! I saw this on Weibo and came here in a hurry. I'm just being kind - hearted. How could Meng Nianchu talk to me like this!"
"Enough!"
Father Meng frowned even deeper and turned his eyes away from Meng Rong. "You've seen him. Since there's nothing else, you can go. Don't come here without anything to do in the future, so as not to let others gossip."
Father Meng didn't take seriously what Meng Nianchu said about Meng Rong knowing Wang Long. He just thought that Meng Nianchu was just being vigilant against Meng Rong and making random guesses. He just hadn't forgiven Meng Rong for what she had done before, and he felt irritated just seeing her and hearing her voice.
But Meng Rong was guilty and thought that Father Meng had listened to what Meng Nianchu had just said.
She immediately panicked and defended herself, "Dad, you can't just believe Meng Nianchu's one - sided words! I don't know Wang Long at all. This has nothing to do with me. You can't believe what Meng Nianchu said!"
His ears were buzzing. Father Meng let out a long, irritated sigh, "I need to rest now. Get out!"
"Dad!"
"Come out with me." Meng Nianchu grabbed Meng Rong's collar with a cold face and dragged her out of the room. Then she closed the door of Father Meng's room, isolating the sounds inside from the outside.
As soon as Meng Rong came out of the room, her expression quickly changed. She forcefully broke free from Meng Nianchu's hand and asked angrily, "What on earth do you want, Meng Nianchu!"
"Where's Wang Long?" Meng Nianchu didn't want to waste time with her and asked directly.
Meng Rong glanced around. "I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know Wang Long. How would I know where he is? It has nothing to do with me."
"Someone saw him near your seaside villa in Singapore."
As soon as these words were spoken lightly, Meng Rong's face suddenly changed. She stared at Meng Nianchu with wide eyes, full of panic.
Meng Nianchu continued coldly, "He ran away as soon as he saw someone coming. What do you think he was looking for in the place where you live?"
"You shut …"
"I've warned you to stay away from the Meng family! Don't think that your little tricks won't be known or exposed." The light in Meng Nianchu's eyes grew colder, and she exuded a powerful aura as she approached Meng Rong.
Meng Rong's back was tightly pressed against the warm - white wall.
"I will never forgive you for this!"
"You …"
"Don't talk nonsense to me!" Meng Rong roared and suddenly pushed Meng Nianchu away. She quickly ran to the side, putting some distance between herself and Meng Nianchu.
Then, as if remembering something, she suppressed her panic, slightly raised her chin, and said proudly, "We don't even know who's in trouble yet. I'm just waiting to see your joke. Let's see how you can still be so arrogant then!"
She glanced at the closed door of Father Meng's room, snorted, didn't stay any longer, and turned around to walk out of Shangting with her head held high.
Meng Nianchu stared at her back, her expression solemn.
It seemed that her guess was right. After giving Father Meng that design drawing, Wang Long immediately fled abroad. There must be someone behind him giving him advice.
From the very beginning, that design drawing was a trap, waiting for Father Meng to fall into it.
At this time, the phone in her hand rang.
Meng Nianchu looked down and saw that it was the latest message from Bai Ling: Didn't manage to follow the person. He ran away.
Just when Meng Rong entered Father Meng's room, Meng Nianchu suddenly received a message from Bai Ling. That was how she knew that Wang Long had been wandering near Meng Rong's seaside villa in Singapore.
Although they didn't catch the person in the end, knowing where he was was still a lead.
