Chapter 76: Why Are You Here?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Meng Haotian cursed in a low voice. Meng Nianyao looked at him as if she was looking at a clown. Perhaps people were like this; before you met the person who had cast a shadow on you, you imagined that he was extremely powerful, but when you met him again, you felt that he was only so-so. Meng Haotian was now like a helpless and furious ant. He could no longer threaten her.
“You know what?” Meng Nianyao stood up and looked at Meng Haotian. Before 1 came here, you often gave me pain in my dreams. But now, I suddenly feel relieved. You’re a nobody. You deserve to end up like this. The Meng family doesn’t even have basic human decency. You don’t deserve to be human. You only deserve to spend the rest of your life in prison.” After saying that, she turned around and left without giving him a chance to speak.
Meng Haotian seemed to have been stabbed in the back. He shouted at her back, “B*tch! Meng Nianyao! You b*tch! I want your life!”
Meng Nianyao didn’t turn around. Behind her, Meng Haotian was pressed down on the chair by two prison guards. Gradually, he couldn’t even make a sound.
It was two o’clock in the afternoon, and the sun was just right outside. When Meng Nianyao came out of prison, she stood under the sun and felt much lighter. She smiled and walked toward the sun.
With a beep, a horn sounded beside Meng Nianyao. Meng Nianyao paused for a moment and the window of the Land Rover rolled down, revealing Gu Wencheng’s cold face. “Mrs. Gu, didn’t you say you would wait for me?”
“Why are you here?” Meng Nianyao looked at him and then at the Land Rover. It wasn’t his usual car.
“Didn’t you ask Sister Wang to call me? That’s why I came to pick you up, Mrs. Gu.”
It had to be said that Meng Nianyao seemed to have broken through some kind of imprisonment after being released from prison. Gu Wencheng liked her current state very much, and his deep eyes were smiling.
Meng Nianyao narrowed her eyes and got into the passenger seat. “Aren’t you going to work in the afternoon?”
“I still have a meeting.”
“Then you can just drop me off in front of the house.”
Gu Wencheng turned to look at her. Meng Nianyao wondered if there was something dirty on her face. “What’s wrong?”
Gu Wencheng shook his head. “No, 1 just feel that you should be more rude to me, Mrs. Gu. We are husband and wife. You don’t have to be so considerate.”
Meng Nianyao was silent for a moment before nodding.
“Where are you going? I’ll send you there.”
“I don’t know. I don’t want to go home either.”
“Then come to the company with me?”
Meng Nianyao shook her head. “1’11 go to the cafe near the company. I’ll wait for you to get off work.”
“Okay. “Gu Wencheng smiled.
The weather was really good today. Meng Nianyao sat by the window of the cafe and basked in the sun, making her feel warm. She was scrolling through her phone when she accidentally saw someone enter.
Jiang Shanshan was wearing an exquisite dress, and she walked in with a big-bellied man. Meng Nianyao raised her eyebrows and took a sip of her coffee. She did not expect Jiang Shanshan to huddle up to a rich man again so quickly.
Jiang Shanshan happened to see Meng Nianyao. She was different from her hysterical state the last time they met. She looked at Meng Nianyao arrogantly. “How is it, Meng Nianyao? Are you surprised to see me?”
Meng Nianyao was not in the mood to sit down already. She paid the bill and looked up at Jiang Shanshan. “What kind of surprised expression do you want me to make? Unexpectedly, you’re back to being someone’s mistress. To be honest, I’m not surprised by this.” With that, she pushed Jiang Shanshan away and left.
“Meng Nianyao!” Jiang Shanshan stood rooted to the ground and clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms.
After leaving the cafe, Meng Nianyao didn’t know where she was going for a moment. Coincidentally, her phone rang—It was Grandma Gu.
“Nianyao, what are you doing? 1 asked the kitchen to prepare hotpot for us, so please come to our house for dinner tonight.” Grandma Gu’s voice came through the receiver.
“Sure,” Meng Nianyao smiled and stood under the big tree. “We’ll go back after Gu Wencheng gets off work,” she said, smiling. But don’t ask the kitchen to prepare hotpot. You and Grandpa can’t eat too much heavy oil and salt.”
“Alright, alright.” Grandma Gu agreed with a smile. The two of them talked for a while before hanging up.
At 5:30 pm, Gu Wencheng got off work on time. Meng Nianyao told him that Grandma Gu had called them to go home for dinner. Gu Wencheng had no objections, and the two of them prepared to go back to the old house..
