Chapter 2733: Chapter 2733: A Scheming Invitation (Part 4)

If it were her, she’d rather slap them than waste so much breath.

She just didn’t understand, did Zhong Qing deceive her into coming just to laugh at and humiliate her?

So what she said about Tingye coming was a lie?

Meimei frowned, ignoring the butler waiting to take her to change clothes, turned around, and prepared to leave.

Since this was a trap, there was no need for her to play along with their script.

"Miss Yu, where are you planning to go? The clothes are upstairs; it seems you’re going in the wrong direction." Zhong Qing saw her about to leave and quickly stepped forward to block her path, speaking with grace.

Her calm demeanor didn’t show a hint of guilt.

Her gaze at Meimei was probing.

For someone to be unjustly scolded like this and not already be angry, it was surprising that she could hold her composure and not even retort, just walking away like this?

If she really left, how could this play continue?

"Wrong direction? Miss Qing, you must be joking. You invited the wrong person and didn’t even know. What’s wrong with me going in the wrong direction?" Meimei glanced at her coldly, didn’t even question her, and started to walk out.

Since she knew Zhong Qing was up to no good, she shouldn’t entangle with her.

This was the Zhong Family’s estate. If a conflict really arose, Mr. Zhong wasn’t there, and it would be too easy for her to suffer.

"What do you mean by that?" Zhong Qing extended her hand to block her path abruptly and spoke, "Miss Yu, I know you’ve just returned not long ago and are busy preparing to enter the company and inherit the family business. Maybe you don’t have any good friends here, so I thought of introducing you to everyone so you could have someone to drink tea and shop with in the future. Did you misunderstand something?"

Zhong Qing’s smile was so genuine that it left no room for critique.

"Inherit the family business, what does that mean? Who is she?" Someone heard Zhong Qing’s words and asked the person next to them in confusion.

"Don’t you know? How could I forget, you didn’t come last time. Someone caused quite a stir at the charity gala..."

"..."

The gossip that had paused with difficulty quickly started up again.

Meimei looked at Zhong Qing, who easily stirred up gossip, and was a bit unsure where her hostility came from.

They’d only met twice, hadn’t had a single conflict, so why was she targeting her like this?

"If you want to know who she is, it’s easy. Ask me, I’m quite impressed by her!" A sharp female voice came from the entrance.

Everyone looked up to see Yan Yan coming in from outside.

As soon as she saw Meimei standing in the middle of the living room, her eyes were filled with hatred.

She took off her coat, revealing her pajamas underneath, walked into the group, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Meimei.

It’s her?

Yan Family’s daughter, Yan Yan.

Meimei’s nerves tensed.

She remembered her, on the day of the charity gala, it was Yan Yan who wanted to splash her with champagne, but in the end, she splashed it all over herself.

However, the reason she was impressed with Yan Yan was not because of that. It was because Yan Yan spread rumors about Dan Tingye behind his back, claiming Dan Tingye didn’t like to get close to girls because of physical problems.

The memory was clearly so recent, yet it felt like it had been a long time. Suddenly thinking about it, she realized that long ago, she’d already cared so much about him that she couldn’t bear to hear a single bad word about him.

"Yan Yan, what do you mean by that?"

"You’re asking me what I mean?" Yan Yan looked at Meimei, the corners of her mouth curling into a cold smile.
