Chapter 204: Meng Wan Wants To Kill Him?
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes in sorrow. “I heard that Old Master Meng is very ill, but I really can’t take out a single stalk of Jinchuan Gra.s.s, much less save him. I admit that I’m responsible for not guarding the Jinchuan Gra.s.s well, but the one who destroyed everything is still Miss Meng.”
Song Shijing: “…”
When Young Madam said this, everyone understood that it was not that the president was ungrateful and was unwilling to give them Jinchuan Gra.s.s, but that Old Master Meng’s precious granddaughter had destroyed the herb.
Meng Wan’s face was pale. “No, I didn’t know that it was Jinchuan Gra.s.s. She must have framed me. I only crushed a few weeds, but she’s framing me for crushing Jinchuan Gra.s.s!”
Qiao Xi pretended to be weak. “Miss Meng, Mr. Feng planted Jinchuan Gra.s.s in the backyard. I was just taking care of it for him. Are you saying that Mr. Feng lied? It’s fine if you don’t admit it. I have a surveillance video that can allow Mr. Feng to confirm if the plants you crushed were indeed Jinchuan Gra.s.s.”
Meng Wan bit her pale lip. Her mind was blank, and she felt weak all over.
Everyone stared at Meng Wan and discussed among themselves. “Old Master Meng has been begging for Jinchuan Gra.s.s for so many years but it was all ruined by his precious granddaughter. How laughable.”
“How can Miss Meng not know Jinchuan Gra.s.s? I heard that she has been helping look for it. It’s definitely impossible for her not to know it.”
“If she knows it, why did she deliberately ruin the Jinchuan Gra.s.s? I heard that Old Master Meng loves his granddaughter very much. I didn’t expect her to be so heartless as to kill him.”
Qiao Xi wiped her tears. “Gu Zheng, it was Miss Meng who destroyed the Jinchuan Gra.s.s that could save Old Master Meng. She even maligned me for not being willing to give it to you. For the sake of achieving her goal, she completely disregarded the life of her loved one. It’s too scary…”
Song Shijing: “…”
Now, he finally knew why Song Shiyu said Young Madam was awesome. She was also good at pretending to be weak.
It would be a pity if she did not become an actress with such acting skills.
The president probably knew that Young Madam was acting…
At this moment, Gu Zheng said slowly, “It seems that this matter has nothing to do with us. Meng Wan wanted Old Master Meng to die, so she deliberately destroyed the Jinchuan Gra.s.s and blamed me and my wife.”
Song Shijing: “…” The president did not even blush when lying?
Qiao Xi cried and said, “I feel so aggrieved! I don’t know about the grievances between the n.o.ble families. I was just heartbroken that the Jinchuan Gra.s.s that I had taken care of for so long was destroyed before they could even mature…
“Poor Old Master Meng. He’s still waiting for the medicine to save his life. Who would have thought that his own granddaughter would harm him…”
‘Shut up!
‘I didn’t hurt Grandpa!’
Meng Wan’s eyes were filled with fear. She rushed in front of Old Master Gu and explained agitatedly, “No! I didn’t mean to harm Grandpa… Grandpa Gu, you know I wouldn’t do something like this! Qiao Xi has wronged me! You must stand up for me! She’ll harm the Gu family!”
Old Master Gu and Madam Gu’s faces darkened.
They originally wanted to take this opportunity to chase Qiao Xi out of the Gu family. Unexpectedly, Meng Wan was useless and was taken advantage of.
Now, even if they could speak up for Meng Wan, they had no reason to. Meng Wan had already offended everyone present.
Old Master Gu abruptly stood up with a gloomy expression. “Qiao Xi, let’s forget about this matter, but I hope you know your place and not affect Gu Zheng’s future and ruin the Gu family.”
After that, Old Master Gu left angrily with Madam Gu following closely behind.
Gu Zheng said slowly, “Song Shijing, send Miss Meng home and tell the elders there the truth of what happened today.”
Meng Wan’s eyes were filled with horror. Her legs went weak as she knelt on the floor and shouted weakly, “No!”
“I didn’t do anything! Brother Gu Zheng, you can’t tell Grandpa that I hurt him!”
Old Master Meng did indeed love her, but if he found out that she had deliberately destroyed the Jinchuan Gra.s.s, he would definitely not let her off!
She could not let this news spread! Otherwise, she would be doomed!
Meng Wan struggled to get up and glared at everyone with vicious eyes. “No one can say anything! All of you have to keep your mouths shut!”
Qiao Xi hid behind Gu Zheng as if she was afraid. “Miss Meng, are you threatening everyone? This is the truth, and there’s even a video as evidence. Could it be that you want to kill everyone?”
Everyone gasped.
It was originally a private matter between the Gu family and the Meng family. They were just here to watch the show, but now, Meng Wan wanted to silence them.
The people who came today were all famous figures in Li City. Meng Wan was just a junior in the Meng family. How dare she threaten them like this?
Gu Zheng glanced coldly at Meng Wan, then he held Qiao Xi’s hand and left.
Song Shijing walked over and said coldly, “Miss Meng, the young madam and the president are a loving couple. You’re just an outsider. Don’t try to ruin their relationship. I’m just reminding you that if you dare to frame the young madam again…
“The Meng family will vanish from Li City.”
