Chapter 203: She Was In Big Trouble
Old Master Gu frowned and berated, “How can the Gu family have a daughter-in-law like you? Quickly hand over Jinchuan Grass. If anything happens to Old Master Meng, I’ll turn you into a cripple!”
Feng Zhang’s expression was cold. He was about to speak…
Qiao Xi took out an exquisite bag and handed it to Feng Zhang with a helpless and sad expression.
“Mr. Feng, it’s not that I’m being petty, but the Jinchuan Grass has been destroyed. I gave it to Gu Zheng as well, but they’re all destroyed. There’s nothing I can do about it!”
Feng Zhang opened the bag and saw that there were a few crushed stalks of Jinchuan Grass inside.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xi’s sorrowful gaze fell on Meng Wan.
“Mr. Feng, Gu Zheng also needs Jinchuan Grass to treat his illness… However, there’s not even one stalk left. How can I give it to Old Master Meng? The Jinchuan Grass was crushed before they could even grow.”
Feng Zhang took out the destroyed Jinchuan Grass. Everyone could clearly see that it was already in pieces.
His expression darkened. “It was destroyed? Who’s so bold?”
Gu Zheng smirked.
He was very clearly aware in his heart that Feng Zhang had already recognized Qiao Xi when he first entered, but he just did not acknowledge her and played along with her.
Meng Wan looked at the grass in Feng Zhang’s hands and her heart suddenly thumped.
After that, Qiao Xi sighed. “Mr. Feng, I planted Jinchuan Grass in the backyard of Longwan Residential and have been taking good care of it. Unexpectedly, Miss Meng drove in that day, so…
“At that time, the butler kept stopping her, but Miss Meng did not listen at all. She knew that I had planted the herbs myself and deliberately crushed all the Jinchuan Grass. Not a single stalk was left. If you don’t believe me, I can show you the surveillance footage of the backyard.”
Meng Wan’s body trembled, and her legs went weak.
What?
She could not believe it.
Qiao Xi said that the grass she crushed was Jinchuan Grass?
Before she could recover from her shock, Qiao Xi spoke again, “Jinchuan Grass is extremely precious, but Miss Meng is unwilling to compensate. I was really angry, so I sent someone to smash her cars. Who knew that she was unwilling to accept it? She even insisted that my grass was worthless and said I was vicious…”
Qiao Xi said unhurriedly, “Now that the Jinchuan Grass has been completely destroyed by Miss Meng, there are still rumors spreading that Gu Zheng has it. Gu Zheng is unable to take it out, so he’ll be misunderstood as an ingrate. I didn’t know that Miss Meng’s thoughts are so vicious!”
“Mr. Feng, please be the judge.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
It turned out that Meng Wan had deliberately destroyed Jinchuan Grass and even released fake news that Gu Zheng had it. She came up with everything herself.
Meng Wan’s legs went weak and she almost fell.
This was slander! How could the flowers and plants in the backyard be Jinchuan Grass?
His grandfather had searched for many years but did not find a single stalk. Where did Qiao Xi get the Jinchuan Grass from? Moreover, there were more than a hundred stalks!
Just as she was about to retort, Feng Zhang slowly said, “Young Miss Meng, were you the one who crushed the hundred stalks of Jinchuan Grass? Now that there isn’t a single stalk left, you’re even forcing Gu Zheng and Xi Xi to hand it over. What are your intentions?
“The environment in the backyard of Longwan Residential is very good, so I sprinkled some seeds there and got Xi Xi to take care of them for me. They finally germinated after a long time, but they’re all gone now…
“Miss Meng, I hope you can give me an explanation. Why did you destroy the Jinchuan Grass?”
Meng Wan’s mind was blank, and her face was pale.
It was over!
She was in big trouble!
Qiao Xi pursed her lips and imitated Meng Wan’s tone as she said, “Old Master Gu, Madam Gu, Gu Zheng originally wanted to wait for the Jinchuan Grass to mature before giving some to the two of you. The Gu family’s relatives and friends would naturally also have a share so as to fulfill his filial duties. He never once thought of hiding it.
“It’s just that Jinchuan Grass was crushed by Miss Meng, but you didn’t hold her responsible. You kept forcing Gu Zheng to hand over the Jinchuan Grass and even wanted to chase me out of the Gu family.
“I feel so aggrieved. I’ve been taking good care of the Jinchuan Grass for so long because I wanted to give it to everyone here. It looks like you don’t want the Jinchuan Grass and only think that Miss Meng has done no wrong.
“Mr. Feng, you have to stand up for me! If apologizing can turn hostility into friendship, I can apologize, but I want to ask you to prove that it’s not that we can’t bear to give the elders the Jinchuan Grass.”
Everyone was silent as they glared at Meng Wan, gnashing their teeth in hatred.
More than a hundred stalks of Jinchuan Grass were all destroyed by this b*tch, Meng Wan!
The Jinchuan Grass was all gone because of this little wh*re, Meng Wan!
Meng Wan took a few steps back, trembling in fear.
When Qiao Xi said that the Jinchuan Grass was supposed to be distributed to everyone present, she had aimed everyone’s anger onto her.
Since she ruined the Jinchuan Grass, Old Master Gu and Madam Gu would not stand up for her anymore.
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 Grass, much less save him. I admit that I’m responsible for not guarding the Jinchuan Grass 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 Grass, 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 Grass. She must have framed me. I only crushed a few weeds, but she’s framing me for crushing Jinchuan Grass!”
Qiao Xi pretended to be weak. “Miss Meng, Mr. Feng planted Jinchuan Grass 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 Grass.”
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 Grass for so many years but it was all ruined by his precious granddaughter. How laughable.”
“How can Miss Meng not know Jinchuan Grass? 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 Grass? 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 Grass 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 Grass 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 noble families. I was just heartbroken that the Jinchuan Grass 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 Grass, 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.”
