Chapter 26: Heartache
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Both Meng Jiao and Meng Yao cried like they were in a competition.
Ning Jia had no choice. She winked at her husband and took Meng Yao out. It was better to coax one of them than to let them cry at the same time.
Meng Tang returned to his room with an unpleasant expression. Ning Jia was sitting on a chair and rubbing her temples. When she saw her husband come in, she quickly said, “Honey, Meng Yao is worried that you don’t want her.”
“She didn’t tell you why she was worried?” Meng Tang snorted coldly.
“She said you heard her scaring Jiao,” said Ning Jia.
“She’s scaring her sister? Hmph!” Meng Tang then told Ning Jia about the conversation between the two sisters that he had overheard.
Ning Jia was shocked.
“Meng Jiao did not fight back and was trying to please Yao, but Yao was actually so vicious at such a young age. I really didn’t expect that. I felt a little guilty when I asked her to give up the room to Meng Jiao, but I didn’t expect her to hate Jiao so much. Yet, Yao still pretended to be obedient on the surface. Honey, I don’t want to believe that such a young child could be scheming, but Meng Yao scares me.” Meng Tang could not hide the disappointment in his heart.
Ning Jia was stunned and subconsciously said, “I think she’s just being anxious. I’ve indeed neglected her these past few days, which has caused her to feel resentful.”
Meng Tang did not speak.
“After all, I raised the child myself. She won’t have any bad intentions.” Ning Jia murmured.
Meng Tang looked at Ning Jia with heartache. He thought, ‘She did not raise the three children herself. It was cruel for a mother like her. If Meng Yao’s character had a problem, then the person who suffered the biggest blow would be my wife. How could she bear it?’
Thinking of that, Meng Tang softened his tone and hugged his wife. He said, “You’re right, I was too hot-tempered. Jiao just came back, and Yao’s not used to it. Yao might not be used to sharing the pampering with Jiao. Let’s give them some time to adapt.”
Ning Jia leaned on Meng Tang’s shoulder and nodded gently. However, the thought of Meng Yao’s working with An Xin to plot against Meng Jiao appeared in her mind.
‘Yao was just impulsive. It must be.’ Ning Jia comforted herself in her heart.
Meng Jiao washed her face with warm water and lay on the bed, letting out a sigh of relief. If she had seen through Meng Yao’s scheme earlier in her previous life, she would not have been killed by her.
Meng Yao’s evil was in her bones, and she was extremely good at acting. To achieve her goal, she would do anything.
Regardless of whether it was in this life or the previous life, from the moment the Meng family found Meng Jiao, Meng Yao’s goal was very clear-to chase Meng Jiao out of the Meng family so that Meng Jiao would never return to the Meng family again. Then, Meng Yao colluded with Zhao Dong to kill Meng Jiao. Meng Yao even plotted against the people who were good to Meng Jiao. Her friend, her most respected master, was killed by Meng Yao.
Meng Jiao closed her eyes to calm herself down.
Fortunately, everything had started anew. Meng Jiao had been reborn with her memories and would never let Meng Yao have her way again.
However, with Meng Jiao’s rebirth and her unwillingness to compromise, many things changed, such as the Gong family and her master.
Meng Jiao secretly swore that in this life, she would never let Meng Yao succeed. She would never let anyone die in Meng Yao’s hands!
Meng Yao’s mood was not as calm as Meng Jiao’s. Fear, anger, and unwillingness almost drove Meng Yao crazy.
She didn’t know if Meng Tang would believe her words. Would he treat her as usual in the future, or would he hate her? She did not even dare to think about the consequences.
If Meng Yao left the Meng family, she would be nothing. Therefore, she had to do her best to stay and continue to be the young miss of the Meng family!
The incident that Meng Yao overheard also made her hands and feet turn cold.
Meng Yao knew Gong Ling and had met him twice. He was a handsome young man like her elder brother Meng Lin.
As the daughter of a wealthy family, Meng Yao had long known what marriage meant. Meng Yao and An Xin would also discuss the young masters and young ladies of each family in private. After all, it was unknown who might marry them for the sake of the family’s interests.
Meng Yao did not care about her relationship with Gong Ling. What she cared about was that something had happened to the Gong family!
‘The Gong family was as prosperous as the Meng family, but now Grandpa had to save them in such a way. It was obvious that something big had happened. What would Gong Ling become in the future? If he could not become the heir of the Gong family, wouldn’t it be a joke for me to marry him? Still, if this marriage was so good, why didn’t Grandpa give it to Meng Jiao? He clearly liked her the moment he saw her.’ Meng Yao thought.
