Chapter 167 Climbing a high branch

"Ugh!"

After the taxi left, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but sigh.

When she was just in the car, she saw the driver's brows filled with a look of death. If nothing happens, he will definitely die tonight.

The King of Hell wants people to die at the third watch, but who can keep them alive until the fifth watch?

She also knew very well that she should not interfere in such matters. After all, everyone's life and death are determined. There are some people she can save, and there are some people she shouldn't save.

It was obvious that the taxi driver was dead tonight, and she shouldn't have taken action. However, when she heard the driver talking about her daughter, who was still in her senior year of high school, she finally couldn't help but take action.

However, whether he can avoid death this time depends on the driver's luck.

After shaking her head and sighing again, Zhong Nianyao walked into the house.

She didn't hesitate and went directly to the study. Because Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong are both in the study at the moment.

After knocking on the door and getting an answer, Zhong Nianyao pushed the door open and went in.

Seeing Zhong Nianyao coming in, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong were both a little surprised. Because in normal times, Zhong Nianyao rarely comes to the study.

"Yao Yao, what's wrong?" Madam Zhong glanced at the time, "Did something happen?"

Zhong Nianyao walked in, then directly found a chair and sat down before speaking, "Grandpa, grandma, there is something I think it would be better for you to know."

Seeing Zhong Nianyao's serious look, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong's expressions also became more serious. At the same time, their hearts are beating drums. Because the last time Zhong Nianyao came to them so seriously was to talk about Zhong Mengfan's pregnancy out of wedlock.

At this moment, they all had a bad premonition in their hearts.

Zhong Nianyao looked at Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong, and then spoke slowly, "Before I say anything, you must be mentally prepared, but don't get too excited!"

After hearing Zhong Nianyao's words, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong looked at each other, and their ominous premonitions became even more intense.

"Yao Yao, please hurry up and say it!" Mr. Zhong took a deep breath, and then urged, "If you do this, we will be even more anxious."

"Okay!" Zhong Nianyao nodded, and then spoke directly, "Actually, it's Zhong Mengxuan. She is in love with the eldest young master of the Lu family, Lu Chenran."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong, who were already mentally prepared, could not help but slow down their hearts.

"Yao Yao, this -" Mrs. Zhong just spoke, and was shocked by Zhong Nianyao's next words.

"This is not the important point." Zhong Nianyao continued, "The important point is that Lu Chenran has already made an engagement with Long Jiarui, the daughter of the Long family, and the two families have also agreed on a wedding date." In other words, Zhong Mengxuan became his wife Mistress.

Although the last sentence was not spoken, the meaning was already obvious.

"This evil deed." Mr. Zhong cursed directly, "She... how could she do such a thing?" They had naturally heard of the name of Lu Chenran, the eldest young master of the Lu family. However, they didn't know about the other party's engagement. After all, such a marriage probably wasn't widely spread. It is impossible for someone with the level of their Zhong family to be included in the invitation.

Now Zhong Mengxuan had no choice but to find Lu Chenran.

To put it bluntly, even if Lu Chenran is not engaged, Zhong Mengxuan is not worthy of Lu Chenran. What's more, if the Long family and the Lu family are the same, Zhong Mengxuan can't get involved!

"My family is unfortunate!" Mrs. Zhong couldn't help but sigh.

"I think things have not developed to the point of irreversibility yet, and they can still be prevented." Zhong Nianyao reminded vaguely, "If something happens again, whether it is for Zhong Mengxuan or the Zhong family, It could be a big impact."

He was just afraid that Zhong Mengfan's incident of getting pregnant out of wedlock would happen again. Moreover, if Zhong Mengxuan becomes pregnant out of wedlock, the matter will be much more complicated than Zhong Mengfan's.

Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong obviously understood Zhong Nianyao's hint.

Ten minutes later, all the owners of the Zhong family gathered in the study, except for Li Yiqiu, who was still having a baby. Moreover, when Mr. Zhong asked people to come over, he specifically told Li Yiqiu not to know.

As soon as they entered the study room, everyone saw that neither Mr. Zhong nor Mrs. Zhong looked very good, and their hearts sank because they also remembered what happened to Zhong Mengfan last time, which was also a similar battle.

Where no one noticed, Zhong Jinghao looked at Zhong Nianyao sitting there, with a flash of deep thought in his eyes. He didn't know why, but he always had a feeling that Zhong Nianyao must be responsible for why his grandparents called them all over this time.

After everyone was seated, Mr. Zhong looked around with sharp eyes, and finally landed on Zhong Mengxuan, "I called you here today because of a very important matter, which can even be said to be related to our Zhong Mengxuan. The development of the family. If one of them is not handled well, our entire Zhong family may be implicated."

Hearing Mr. Zhong speak so seriously, everyone became even more nervous.

Especially Zhong Mengxuan, her heart was beating violently at this time. She had a vague feeling that what her grandfather said should have something to do with her.

"I didn't know that my granddaughter had such great abilities," Mr. Zhong didn't mince words. He looked at Zhong Mengxuan and said directly, "She actually climbed to such a high branch of the Lu family. Even the old man I am sighing. Not as good as that!”

The others were not fools, so they naturally knew that the old man was talking about Zhong Mengxuan.

"Mengxuan, what on earth did you do?" Zhong Mingyu frowned and asked directly, "What on earth did your grandfather say?"

"I didn't do anything!" Zhong Mengxuan quickly cried out, "I've been behaving well recently. Grandpa, why are you looking at me like this?"

"Behave yourself?" Mr. Zhong's face became even more ugly, "Then what's going on with you and Lu Chenran?"

As soon as she heard Mr. Zhong's words, Zhong Mengxuan's heart couldn't help but sink, and she couldn't control the guilty conscience on her face, "Grandpa, I -"

She just spoke, but she didn't know what to say. Because what grandpa said was true, she was indeed with Lu Chenran. However, she wanted to know even more how her grandfather knew about this matter.

This matter was obviously very hidden, and she didn't let anyone know about it.
