She has a slender waist and delicate bones, and is able to seduce the ascetic horse.

Chapter 158 Unkind and unjust
The path the two of them were on was not too remote, with lush and short trees planted on both sides, and the outlines of their branches and leaves were vaguely visible in the night.

Just like Shen Jiaojiao's moods that flickered between bright and dark.

She bit her lower lip gently, feeling anxious and burying her head in her chest, not daring to look at her adopted brother.

If Guangshan really lied to her...

Where did she get the courage to look at her step-brother and make him angry with Chen Yuanli?

"Ugh……"

A soft sigh came from the man above his head.

Shen Jiaojiao swallowed, holding her neck and not daring to speak, quietly waiting for her sworn brother's scolding.

Meng Hui lowered his head, feeling that the cowering posture of the woman in front of him was very annoying.

It was as if he was going to eat her alive.

"His family was..." Meng Hui paused and continued, "They were pinched by my mother and had to lie."

How could a man as capable as my sworn brother sigh?

"Yi, sworn brother..."

Thinking of this, Shen Jiaojiao's expression became solemn, which obviously brought back unpleasant memories.

Meng Hui said: "What Guangshan said to you here last night was all nonsense. He was lying."

"No, it's impossible. Guangshan is clearly yours, why would he lie?"

Shen Jiaojiao was forced to raise her face and look at the man. When she heard the sigh, her eyes widened.

"Shen Jiaojiao, what should I do to you?"

Because she was my biological sister, I knew Meng Wan had a problem but didn't deal with it, and I knew she was wronged but told her to be patient.

She was silent for a long time, turning her face away from Meng Hui's hand holding her chin.

After all, she was his biological sister.

The man rolled his eyes and reached out to lift her chin, revealing her beautiful face.

"If you don't believe it, I will find evidence for you." Meng Hui explained patiently, "This matter has nothing to do with me, but I will give you an explanation."

"I don't want to explain."

Her voice was very soft and her words were very clear.

But when he met his step-brother's indifferent gaze, nothing came out of his mouth.

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and said in her heart that she didn't believe it. Guangshan was a person close to his sworn brother, how could he be coerced by such insider tactics?

Maybe it was Guangshan who lied, but things have already happened. So what if it can be proven that the person behind Guangshan is his adoptive mother?

Doesn’t the sworn brother also hold this idea?
If the sworn brother knew that she wanted revenge, he might also protect Meng Wan.

"Why don't you deal with Meng Wan?"

Her tongue seemed to be tied up and she couldn't form a complete sentence.

"How many times have I asked you? Now I'm here to tell you that I wrongly blamed you. If you think about it carefully, am I really wrong about you? Don't you have any responsibility at all?"

"If you hadn't sided with Meng Wan again and again, why would I have ignored the wind and rain? Because in my eyes, you are the one who will protect Meng Wan!"

Questions came one after another, making Meng Hui a little confused.

"So that's what you were thinking."

She nodded, "Well, that's what I think. Since you said I wrongly blamed you, are you willing to give me an explanation?"

"I told you before that if you give me some more time, it will be solved soon," Meng Hui said.

"Are you stalling for time?"

The man frowned, "When have I ever lied to you?"

"Have you told enough lies? Do you dare to swear to heaven that you have never lied to me? Never plotted against me?"

Meng Hui shook his head and laughed, "Shen Jiaojiao..."

Seeing that her sworn brother was trying to trick her with words again, Shen Jiaojiao spoke first.

"You think I don't know? Even the day Meng Wan administered the medicine was your plan!"

Since you want to say it, let’s make it clear!
She took two steps back and put her hands in front of her to protect herself.

"Brother, you scare me!"

Meng Hui was speechless when asked. He wanted to deny it, but didn't know how.

Shen Jiaojiao was right. On the day the two of them slept together, he was indeed the one who took advantage of his plan...

But he never favored anyone.

Shen Jiaojiao was the only one who was his selfish one.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Shen Jiaojiao's eyes were full of disappointment and she took a step back again.

"Brother, let's not get entangled anymore. From now on, we will still be a family."

When evidence of guilt is found, she will run far away.

Hearing these indifferent words, Meng Hui's eyes flashed with pain, and he couldn't help but take two steps forward, wanting to hold her hand.

Shen Jiaojiao retreated again.

His back almost touched the branches.

The dead leaves swayed in the cold wind, making a rustling sound, which cast a layer of gloom in the hearts of the two of them.

"Jiaojiao, that's not the case, you misunderstood me." Meng Hui became more and more anxious when he saw her avoiding him like a snake and a scorpion.

"I have never favored Meng Wan, you are the most important, but I am investigating..."

Halfway through his words, he stopped again.

Meng Hui pursed her thin lips and said no more.

Her petite figure was reflected in the depths of her dark pupils.

Shen Jiaojiao looked at him steadily. Seeing that he didn't say 'what to check' for a long time, the light in her eyes went out little by little.

A wry smile appeared on her lips, "That's all, I just hope to live a good life with Yuan Li."

She almost thought her sworn brother was going to tell him the reason.

As a result, when it came to Meng Wan, he tried to prevaricate her again and treated her like a fool.

"I will make arrangements as soon as possible." Meng Hui did not try to persuade him anymore and planned to put the previous planning on the agenda.

He knew that Shen Jiaojiao's knot in her heart would not be opened easily, especially since Meng Wan was still under the protection of Mrs. Meng in the mansion and no one could punish her...

But he would never allow the two to become estranged.

"Except Chen Yuanli." Meng Hui stared into her eyes, "I promise you that as long as you reconcile with Chen Yuanli, I will help you and will not be entangled with you anymore."

"...Why do you care so much about Chen Yuanli?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

"It's you who care about him and you have him in your heart."

Shen Jiaojiao wanted to frown and laugh at the same time, but she could only quickly lower her head to block her sworn brother's prying eyes.

How could she still have any place for Chen Yuanli in her heart?
Ever since he got involved with Meng Wan, she never thought about him again.

What she didn't expect was that today's conversation actually yielded new results.

The adopted brother promised not to pester her!
"Okay, if you don't pester me anymore, I will look for opportunities to reconcile with Chen Yuanli." She agreed.

Meng Hui nodded, and the two reached a consensus.

Shen Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed.

He no longer cares about his sworn brother's kindness to Meng Wan.

She only regards these days in the Meng Mansion as a journey in her life, and she will go on her own later.

Seeing her quick agreement, Meng Hui felt increasingly unhappy and a little regretful.

He could still feel Shen Jiaojiao's joy for him before, especially that day in Yingyuan, why couldn't he feel it now?
Did she never like him, or did she hide her feelings too deeply?
Meng Hui suppressed his uneasiness and decided to seek advice from Li Shang again.

Thinking of the presence of Commander Li, Meng Hui calmed down and said, "Let's go, I'll take you back first."

Saying that, he lifted his feet and walked forward.

Shen Jiaojiao quickly followed behind.

After sending the person to the door, Meng Hui left a message of "get some rest early" and left in a hurry.

She was a little surprised to see her sworn brother leave so cleanly, and she always felt that something was wrong.

The adopted brother had been pestering her for so long, and he let her go as soon as he said let go...

Are all men in the world so heartless and unjust?
