Chapter 296: I Am Not a Human If I Keep Putting up With It
The security guards were shocked. If he planned to lock her up, wouldn’t it be better for him to lock her up at home since earlier?
Perhaps, n.o.body would expect that Sheng Minglan would actually come.
“Grandpa, the ceremony is about to start, Fourth Sister…”
“Now you know that you have done something wrong.” Grandpa Sheng glared at Sheng Minghui angrily. “I really do not expect that you can be this ruthless. Fourth Sister lost her fiancé because of you. And what did you do? You even spread rumors about her.”
“I had no choice.” Sheng Minghui quickly gave in. “Grandpa, you see, today is my big day, but all the guests were criticizing me. I just wanted to divert their attention. Besides, I did not say anything bad about Fourth Sister!”
Before the ceremony started, the two were conversing in the bride’s room.
“You know how fearsome people’s words are. Even the truth could be altered easily. Are you saying that you did not do it on purpose?”
“Grandpa, even if you want to punish me, just wait until the ceremony is over, please.”
When the ceremony was over, she could just say that she was pregnant. That way, she would be able to avoid physical punishment. She was already used to being scolded. It was nothing to be afraid of.
Grandpa Sheng stopped talking and went out of the bride’s room. Right after that, Sheng Minglan went in.
The two exchanged glances. Sheng Minghui felt awkward. “Fourth Sister, why are you not in the main hall?”
“You know why I am here, don’t you?” Sheng Minglan asked coldly.
“Fourth Sister, I don’t know what you are talking about.”
“If I don’t come today, are you going to let me be the scapegoat forever? Huh?” Sheng Minglan asked. “I don’t request much. I just want you to clarify everything once the engagement ceremony is over. Then, I won’t bother you anymore. Otherwise, I don’t even know what I will do.”
“Fourth Sister, please forgive me for this once. I did not do it on purpose.”
“Don’t try to play the same trick again. I have already been fooled by you countless times.” Sheng Minglan did not yield. “Choose one out of the two. You can clarify or none of us will get the better of it.”
Sheng Minghui was scared. She could only agree to it to calm Sheng Minglan down for the time being. “Fourth Sister, don’t get emotional. I know what you want. I promise you I will do it. But, the ceremony is about to start. I need to go now.”
Having said that, Sheng Minghui quickly walked out of the bride’s room holding her dress. Then, she grabbed the chance to lock the door of the bride’s room.
After that, she asked someone to guard the room to prevent Sheng Minglan from escaping. In fact, this was Grandpa’s idea as well.
But, was it good enough?
It was not that she did not have her phone.
It was not a sealed room. All she had to do was to make a call to Jing Yun and everything would be taken care of, right?
On the other hand, the engagement ceremony was about to start.
Mu Qiqi was getting worried after seeing Sheng Minglan not coming back after going to the restroom for quite some time.
But Sheng Xiao rea.s.sured her. ” Fourth Sister has Jing Yun to protect her. You don’t have to be concerned.”
“I am just worried that Seventh Sister will find ways to trap Fourth Sister.”
“If you can think of it, won’t Fourth Sister think of it too?” Sheng Xiao asked.
Mu Qiqi glared at him and pinched his hand. “Is it fun teasing me?”
On the stage, the emcee was already on standby. And the couple being celebrated walked onto the center of the stage.
All the lights were directed upon them. As the emcee was about to start reading out the oath, a black shadow appeared on the other side of the aisle.
All the guests witnessed her walking straight to the couple on the stage. With the fastest speed, she grabbed Sheng Minghui’s arm and slapped her hard on her face. All the guests were taken aback by her action.
Even Grandpa Sheng was stunned.
What was meant to happen would eventually happen in the end.
“Shameless thing! You stole my fiancé the night before the engagement. Now, you even spread rumors about me s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g around. Don’t tell me I have to yield just because you are my younger cousin.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Sheng Minghui was especially shocked. She quickly looked into the direction of her grandfather, begging him for help with her eyes.
Wanting to save his family’s face, Grandpa Sheng stood up. But before he opened his mouth, Sheng Minglan stopped him. “Last night, she s.n.a.t.c.hed my fiancé. You sided with her. Fine, I don’t want this marriage anymore. And today, when I am here, this s.l.u.t spread rumors about me. And you still side with her and ask me to forgive her. But she locked me in the bride’s room to stop me from ruining her engagement. I am not a human if I keep putting up with it. Sheng Minghui, I don’t have to tolerate you every single time. I won’t today nor I will in the future. This b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I will consider it a gift to you. You don’t have to thank me for it. But, this is what you stole from me. Please be clear of the fact. If you try to make me into a scapegoat again, I will ruin your reputation again like what I am doing now!”
Having said that, Sheng Minglan looked at Grandpa Sheng. “I don’t care if you acknowledge me as your granddaughter anymore. Because in my heart, my grandfather is dead.”
After a whole series of events, Sheng Minglan walked down the stage, with all the guests witnessing the incident.
She held her head high as she was walking, emitting a powerful aura. All the guests had watched an exciting drama.
What did her action mean?
Nothing else, but she was no longer a Sheng. Because Grandpa Sheng had pushed her into a corner, she had no reason to remain in the Sheng family. So, she decided to leave everything behind. She didn’t care about anything anymore and just made it a lose-lose situation for both of them.
Grandpa Sheng could not salvage the situation anymore. Because he had hurt Sheng Minglan too much.
He knew that his granddaughter truly despised the Sheng family. She was no longer willing to see herself as a Sheng anymore or as his granddaughter.
The scene was in complete stillness…
But Sheng Xiao started clapping.
The guests followed suit. And of course, they were clapping for Sheng Minglan instead of Sheng Minghui.
“Chairman Sheng, do you still want to proceed with the ceremony?” The emcee stood dumbfounded for a while before asking Grandpa Sheng.
Grandpa Sheng indeed had a strong mind. He pretended as if nothing happened and waved his hand. “Carry on.”
But, everyone already knew how Sheng Minghui who was standing on the stage had betrayed Sheng Minglan. Moreover, she even poked her wound.
Blessings? Did she deserve it?
A woman who was shameless enough to steal someone else’s fiancé should have some self-consciousness. How could she blame it on another person during the engagement ceremony?
It seemed now the disgusted looks on the guests’ faces were enough to let Sheng Minghui feel humiliated.
