Chapter 20 She deserves to die.
"No, at first I thought you were taking good care of Shen Meng, but then her true nature was revealed, and you couldn't see it? Because of this, we've already lost 500,000 followers! And it's still going down!" Brother Zhang was furious. This Shen Meng was clearly no pushover!
But Chen Xingge couldn't see it.
"What? How could that be? I've always been with Mengmeng, and I know very well what kind of person she is!" Chen Xingge frowned; he had his own opinion on this matter.
"You, you're hopeless!" Brother Zhang was speechless. Anyway, even if he couldn't make it in this world, he could still go back and inherit his family fortune, so he didn't care about him!
In the Shen family's car, Shen Wantang and Shen Meng sat in the back seat, with a certain distance between them by the window.
Shen Zhengyi was driving, and Wang Manjuan was in the passenger seat.
"Tangtang, do you still remember the diamond necklace your mother lost before you married into the Ji family?" Wang Manjuan suddenly brought it up in the car. Shen Meng was stunned, and then a huge panic swept over her.
Did they discover something? No way? How could this necklace still be around after all this time?
And she hid so well that no one should have found out!
"I remember, what's wrong?" Shen Wantang's voice was indifferent, revealing no joy.
[How could I forget that I was kicked out of my house because of this necklace!]
Could it be that they found the necklace again?
Thinking for a moment, Shen Wantang turned to look at Shen Meng. [Look at her, she hasn't even said anything yet! How did she get so scared?]
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhengyi glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that Shen Meng was lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.
You should know that it was Shen Meng who said that Shen Wantang had stolen the necklace and sold it for money, which is why they were disappointed and sent Shen Wantang to the Ji family.
“Mom was found just two days ago. I was heartbroken to realize that I had misunderstood you,” Wang Manjuan said truthfully.
"Your parents don't ask for your forgiveness, just don't resent us and don't forget us." Shen Zhengyi also sighed. They had trusted Shen Meng too much in this matter.
After all, they had raised Shen Meng with great care and taught her how to be a person. They never expected that Shen Meng would have such a dark side.
"It's alright, let bygones be bygones!" Shen Wantang looked out the window.
[So what if they found it? They still don't know Shen Meng stole it. And even if they did, Shen Meng would definitely tell.]
[I care about my parents too much. I was afraid they would send me away. I will never do that again. I'm sorry.] Then I'll shed a couple of crocodile tears. They'll be too heartbroken to scold Shen Meng.
"Where did you find it?" Shen Wantang thought for a moment and then asked, wanting to see how Shen Meng explained it and whether it was the same as what she said.
Wang Manjuan thought to herself, "It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"
"Mengmeng, you said your sister sold the necklace, so how did it end up in your room? And hidden in the corner of the dressing table?"
Shen Meng's mind was spinning rapidly.
"Your sister said you took it, and we chose to believe you, but how do you explain this?" Shen Meng broke out in a cold sweat at Shen Zhengyi's question.
"I..." Shen Meng was still hesitating whether to speak or not.
"What?!" Wang Manjuan wasn't going to let the matter drop so easily.
Shen Meng clutched her skirt tightly: "Mom, I'm sorry, I secretly hid the necklace."
"Why did you do this to your sister?" Wang Manjuan looked at her with disappointment, feeling for the first time that she was such a stranger.
"I'm sorry, Mom and Dad! I'm so sorry, I was just so worried. I was worried that you wouldn't love me anymore after my sister came back, that's why I did this. I'm so sorry, so sorry." Shen Meng cried, unable to catch her breath.
In the past, Wang Manjuan and Shen Zhengyi wouldn't have been able to get angry, since they didn't know her true nature. But things are different now.
What she's saying now is almost exactly the same as what Tangtang said just now!
"It's alright, I just hope that all the things you said before weren't lies to us." Wang Manjuan turned away and sat down with a cold face. She didn't dare to think about what might have happened if she had really lied to them.
How heartbroken Tangtang must be!
Could it be that Shen Meng has revealed her true colors? Or what? Why has Madam Shen suddenly become so clear-headed?
This shouldn't be happening... Do you know what's going on?
[Unclear. The system test showed everything was normal, but there were some discrepancies, though the impact is minor.]
They didn't arrive at the Shen family home until evening. Shen Meng was still staying in the best room, while her room was a single room similar to a servant's.
[Tsk tsk, what am I doing here? Just looking for trouble?]
"Come and eat! You must be hungry! Wang Ma, prepare the biggest room on the third floor for Miss. She's coming back to stay for a few days," Wang Manjuan instructed as soon as she entered the room.
When Wang Ma saw Shen Wantang, she frowned subconsciously: "Madam, Miss's dressing room is still on the third floor!"
“Yes, move Mengmeng’s walk-in closet back to her own room.” Wang Manjuan didn’t catch the implication in her mother’s voice.
After all, Shen Meng had been trying to please her for a long time and had been belittling Shen Wantang in her ear for just as long.
"But Mom, if I put a walk-in closet in my room, it will be too small. Besides, my walk-in closet has always been on the third floor..." Shen Meng naturally refused upon hearing this.
Why can't Shen Wantang just continue living in that shabby room? Why the sudden change of plans to move to a new room? Did Shen Wantang secretly contact her parents?
“Your room is so big, it was originally prepared for Tangtang. Now that you’re living here, it won’t make a difference to put in a walk-in closet.” Wang Manjuan said calmly, not feeling that she had done anything wrong.
[Host has some juicy gossip!]
【bring it on! 】
[This Wang Ma has a son who's good-for-nothing and a petty thief all day long, and Wang Ma is constantly worried sick about him! After Shen Meng found out, she would occasionally give Wang Ma small tips or favors to get her to do things for her.]
[She played a significant role in framing you before! Like that incident at the swimming pool.]
[What? That pool incident was something Wang Ma and Shen Meng did together? Tsk tsk, poor Shen Meng, trying to frame me and get me hospitalized for a week, really something!]
What? Wang Ma actually colluded with Shen Meng? Wang Manjuan stared at Wang Ma, her own daughter was being bullied by two outsiders right under her nose.
She, as a mother, actually sided with outsiders; she deserves to die!
[Didn't the news recently report about a thief who accidentally sent his victim to the hospital while stealing something, and the culprit still hasn't been caught?]
Could he be Wang Ma's son?
[Yes! Wang Ma has been secretly taking your mother's jewelry out to exchange for money, planning to smuggle herself and her son across the border!]
She can't escape now.
Shen Zhengyi: Who? Who can't escape?
They were certain that Tangtang was talking to someone, but they couldn't hear the other person's voice.
[When Aunt Wang goes to tidy your room later, she'll probably grab a few necklaces and leave.]
Shouldn't they be caught on the spot?
Hesitantly, Shen Meng realized that her secret necklace used to frame Shen Wantang had been discovered, and dared not say anything more: "Mom is right."
