Zhou Pingyu heard the vulnerability in Meng Xintong's voice, and he nodded . "Okay, wait for me . I'll go over right now . " Even if he had to risk his life, he would protect Meng Xintong .
When he and Meng Xintong first got to know each other, he didn't know that she was the Meng family's Miss Meng . Only after spending a long time together did he find out about it, and he hated that he couldn't prevent her from returning to a house like that .
Meng Xintong's expression became soft . No matter how lonely or frustrated she was, at least there would always be one person by her side . That was why she was not sad and did not envy others .
When Master Meng, Chen Pei, Meng Xinyan, and Su Lenghan entered the house, Meng Xintong was still at the same spot .
Master Meng spoke coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Your sister and brother-in-law have returned . Go and prepare some tea . "
Meng Xintong looked at the servants around her before turning back to her father . "Father, are you treating me like a servant? If I'm a servant, then I would resign right away . "
Su Lenghan looked on with confused eyes, and he turned to face Master Meng . He never liked the Meng family . When he was wooing Meng Xinyan, they wanted to marry her off to a more powerful and prestigious family . They distanced themselves from him and even turned a blind eye to the Su family's crises .
The present Master Meng had undergone a hundred-eighty degree turn—he was now afraid that he didn't want Meng Xinyan . He was disgusted at the change in Master Meng's att.i.tude, but he couldn't say anything about it either .
Master Meng was about to explode in anger when he saw his son-in-law looking at him . He immediately composed himself and said, "What are you saying? Your younger sister and brother-in-law just returned, and you weren't courteous at all . As your father, I cannot even scold you?"
Meng Xintong scoffed . "Father, when my boyfriend comes later, I hope you will welcome him with the same courtesy . Don't let brother-in-law laugh at us and think that we are sn.o.bbish people who only looked at wealth and power . "
Master Meng's eyes twitched . This la.s.s was getting brazen . He remembered how his eldest daughter used to be straight-faced and hard to provoke . No matter how much he scolded, she never spoke back . What happened to her?
The past Meng Xintong was ordinary and kept a low profile . Master Meng was indifferent towards her because she didn't have much worth . Now, however, Meng Xintong had fully displayed her beauty and worth, causing Master Meng to take more interest in her . He wanted to use her for the Meng family's power and influence, and this caused them to reach this conflict .
Meng Xintong raised the issue about them being sn.o.bbish, so Master Meng did not dare to provoke her anymore . After all, because of what had happened in the past, this son-in-law from the Su family probably had a few words for him . If he showed his sn.o.bbish side, his son-in-law would never want to meet him again .
That was why Master Meng held in his temper .
When Zhou Pingyu arrived at the Meng family, Meng Xintong happily grabbed his elbow to introduce him to everyone . However, when Master Meng saw his shabby look, he asked Zhou Pingyu to get lost .
"A penniless small fry trying to enter our Meng family? In your dreams . "
"Father, I love him . Wherever he goes, I will follow . It's up to you!"
Chen Pei smiled . "Lenghan, please don't laugh at us . Even though Xintong is Meng family's daughter, she has never really seen the world before . "
Meng Xinyan gloated, "Mother, elder sister knows her limits . She knows that she can't find someone with a good family background, so she settled for this guy . Mother and Father shouldn't worry too much about it . "
"Xinyan, you're always the sensible one . Look at her, trying to drive her own father crazy . "
With such exaggerated facts, Master Meng became at odds with Meng Xintong . The latter said, "Father, he is the person I told you about . I'm introducing him to everyone because I respect you . "
Master Meng couldn't take it any longer . He raised his hand to slap Meng Xintong, but Zhou Pingyu blocked him . The slap landed on his face instead .
Zhou Pingyu heard the vulnerability in Meng Xintongs voice, and he nodded . Okay, wait for me . Ill go over right now . Even if he had to risk his life, he would protect Meng Xintong .
