Kong Ya Lan did not expect to be shut out by a greenhorn girl, feeling a loss of face. She looked at Meng Shi Wen with disdain.
Meng Shi Wen did not know what Kong Ya Lan was thinking. After closing the door, she returned to the front yard. Mr. Meng was playing chess in the yard. Seeing Meng Shi Wen huffing and puffing, he couldn't help but ask, "Darling, what happened?"
Meng Shi Wen told Mr. Meng the whole story. After finishing, Meng Shi Wen asked with confusion, "Do you think she's still a biological mother? This is the first time I've seen a mother with such a bad attitude towards her own son."
Mr. Meng had seen many women who treated their children as weapons to marry into wealthy families. Some would even harm their own children to win back their husband's heart.
Therefore, Mr. Meng was not surprised to hear Meng Shi Wen's words. However, seeing his granddaughter so angry, Mr. Meng couldn't help but ask, "Wen Wen, do you like that person named Yan Yi?"
"Grandpa, you... don't talk nonsense. How could I possibly like him?"
Meng Shi Wen vehemently denied it, but her flustered emotions and blushing face betrayed her.
Mr. Meng did not object to Meng Shi Wen dating. Whether the other party was rich or not, he did not care, as the Meng family was not short of money.
He only hoped that the boy would not let Meng Shi Wen down.
Mr. Meng had already accepted Yan Yi, whom he had never met. He would definitely not let Meng Shi Wen suffer any injustice, and he decided to meet Yan Yi's mother.
However, Meng Shi Wen did not allow him to go, and Mr. Meng dared not disobey Meng Shi Wen.
Kong Ya Lan did not leave the Meng family until late at night.
The butler came to Mr. Meng's room and reported, "Old Sir, that woman is still waiting outside."
Mr. Meng frowned slightly when he heard the butler say this.
Seeing that Mr. Meng did not speak, the butler did not know what Mr. Meng was thinking and couldn't help but remind him, "Old Sir, there will be a thunderstorm tonight, and the weather has already changed."
"If she is still waiting at the door tomorrow morning, then I will give her the chance to meet her."
The butler understood Mr. Meng's intention and withdrew.
Late at night, a heavy rain began to fall outside. Kong Ya Lan wanted to leave several times, but in the end, she held on. She didn't believe that Mr. Meng would refuse her.
The next morning, Mr. Meng got up. The butler came to report, "Old Sir, the lady outside really waited all night. Please..."
"Well, then please invite her in."
The butler withdrew, and soon, Kong Ya Lan was brought in.
Seeing Mr. Meng, Kong Ya Lan said, "Mr. Meng, I have something important to tell you, something related to the Yao family."
When the Yao family was mentioned, Mr. Meng's calm eyes looked at Kong Ya Lan, as if waiting for her to report.
Kong Ya Lan paused for a moment and said, "It's like this, that Old Mr. Yao..." Before Kong Ya Lan could finish speaking, she fainted.
Having not slept all night, coupled with the rain, her exhausted body caught a cold, and she fainted just like that.
Mr. Meng called the family doctor to examine Kong Ya Lan.
Yan Xi was taking good care of Fu Yan Ting at the hotel.
After breakfast, she prepared mid-morning tea for Fu Yan Ting, followed by lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and a midnight snack.
Fu Yan Ting felt warm seeing Yan Xi's meticulous care, but he would have been happier if Yan Xi's fees were not so high.
Yan Xi had not seen Yan Yi since he was rescued. Yan Xi had hinted to Fu Yan Ting several times that she wanted to see Yan Yi, but Fu Yan Ting said that the time was not yet ripe and asked Yan Xi to wait.
Yan Xi did not know what "ripe time" meant.
However, since Fu Yan Ting had said so, Yan Xi could not say anything more.
But she was always concerned about Yan Yi.
Suddenly, Yan Xi's phone rang. It was Meng Shi Wen calling. Yan Xi answered the phone, and Meng Shi Wen whispered, "Sister Yan, are you free now?"
"What's wrong?"
Yan Xi and Meng Shi Wen were not familiar with each other at all. If it weren't for Yan Yi, Yan Xi wouldn't have known about Meng Shi Wen.
But now, Meng Shi Wen was taking the initiative to call Yan Xi, so it must be something very important she wanted to tell her.
Yan Xi did not hang up the phone in a hurry and patiently asked Meng Shi Wen.
"Yan Yi's mother, the woman who caused trouble for Yan Yi at our school, came to our house. My grandfather's expression was very serious, as if something was about to happen. I'm a little scared and want you to come to my house. Can you?"
Meng Shi Wen knew that it was a bit impolite to ask Yan Xi to come to her house so abruptly, but she had no choice.
Yan Xi frowned, not knowing why Kong Ya Lan was at the Meng family's house, but she still decided to go.
When Yan Xi arrived at the Meng family's house, Meng Shi Wen opened the door for her and let her in.
Yan Xi asked, "Where is Kong Ya Lan?"
Meng Shi Wen pointed to the guest room and explained, "She fainted last night after being rained on and is resting inside."
Yan Xi nodded and walked to the door. Just as she was about to push it open, she heard the conversation inside.
"Mr. Meng, back then, Old Mr. Yao disliked his daughter for giving birth out of wedlock and entrusted the twins born to his daughter to us to raise. I know that Old Mr. Yao's daughter and your son were a couple, but Old Mr. Yao doing this means he did not take you seriously."
"Tell me, what are the names of the twins?"
Mr. Meng's voice trembled.
"The girl is the older sister, named Yan Xi, and the boy is the younger brother, named Yan Yi."
Yan Xi stood at the door, still unable to comprehend.
So, her and Yan Yi's biological mother was indeed Yao Wan Qi.
And their biological father was Mr. Meng's son?
But Mr. Meng had never married?
Where did he get a son from?
Seeing Mr. Meng's emotional reaction, Kong Ya Lan knew that Mr. Meng believed her words.
Kong Ya Lan's lips curved slightly upwards.
She began to explain, "Mr. Meng, I know you have always coveted Fu Yan Ting's wealth. I can also tell you a secret: Yan Xi is Fu Yan Ting's wife. If you use Yan Xi, you will get everything you desire."
Mr. Meng did not speak, narrowing his eyes as he scrutinized Kong Ya Lan, as if considering the truthfulness of her words.
Seeing that Mr. Meng seemed unconvinced, Kong Ya Lan was about to explain when she heard movement at the door...
