Rebirth: I became rich by farming

Chapter 664: Chapter 664: Wings Got Tough (5/5)

What she was waiting to understand was something she had never known: that a company with assets of 200 million could be listed on the stock market. Not to mention assets, her company had only one formal staff member; there’s no way such a company could go public. She found Yan Keke’s words downright absurd. Even with her limited knowledge, she knew that a company seeking to list could definitely not have a structure like theirs.

But at this moment, Yan Keke couldn’t hear her shouting. It seemed she had some urgent matter, and she turned and left Mei Mengzhen’s side, leaving everyone wondering if Yan Keke was out of her mind, thinking about the billions she mentioned.

Mei Yifan said, "Your classmate? Even a lunatic can go to university..."

But she thought again, that’s not right, this person hadn’t answered her question and yet had run off, "Hey, classmate, where are you going? Give Zhenzhen her money back!"

Naturally, Yan Keke couldn’t be called back. She had conjured a bunch of nonsense as an excuse to run off, scared to even take the elevator and directly taking the fire escape instead, all the while feeling anxious, "Zhenzhen’s relatives are really too scary."

Yan Keke shivered at the thought of having such relatives around her. "With these circumstances, how am I supposed to live my life?"

And Mei Yifan, angry about the unreturned money and non-stop daydreaming, doubted whether Mei Mengzhen was also somewhat abnormal. Otherwise, how could she join company with another lunatic?

Wang Gaofeng was a bit angry, "That girl didn’t look like she was ill. Why does she talk so irrationally?"

Having said that, Wang Gaofeng turned to Mei Mengzhen, "And you, you’re sick in the head, donating all that money without saying a word to anyone."

"My money, I don’t have the right to decide, and instead need to ask for your opinions? That’s quite funny. Besides, I did donate it all on purpose, just to keep you from coveting it. I’d rather donate it than let you get your hands on it."

Mei Yifan grumbled, "Oh, so you did all this just to guard against us?"

Mei Mengzhen did not deny it, "Right, you’re just realizing this now? It seems your brain is nothing special either, and yet you have the nerve to criticize others."

It had to be said that today’s Mei Mengzhen was truly different from before, yet compared to her previous meek nature, her aunts, who were watching, instead found themselves wanting to protect this sharper version of Mei Mengzhen more.

Just as Mei Yifan and her husband were hopping mad, Mei Yinan casually reminded, "Zhenzhen has donated the money, so be it, it’s her own money. How she wants to use it is up to her. Why are you reacting so strongly?"

"Us? Big sister, you also won’t say something to Zhenzhen? Such a large sum of money, and she just donated it like that. It would be enough for us to spend for a lifetime."

"Not enough."

This feeble voice came from Mei Mengcheng. Suddenly rich with just one million wasn’t really enough to squander; he initially had five million, and that still wasn’t enough. Moreover, Mei Yifan and her husband were clearly more extravagant than him.

When Hu Chunyu heard these two words from Mei Mengcheng, she couldn’t help but want to kick her own son. However, she ultimately restrained herself because she was also one of the culprits in the family’s wasteful spending.

However, Mei Mengcheng’s reminder was something the couple wouldn’t listen to, as they immediately retorted, "How could that be, we aren’t like you. You’re a kid who can’t resist temptation, but we are adults."

As soon as these words came out, this time Hu Chunyu really didn’t hold back and directly kicked Mei Mengcheng, silencing him for his needless words.

But regardless of whether the money would last a lifetime, Mei Mengzhen didn’t say she’d give it to them to spend. They were already considering her money as their own, which was quite interesting.

"Auntie, you must be mistaken about whom your niece is. What does my money have to do with you? Plus, I’m of age now, I have the right to manage all my property. Please don’t covet my money in the future. Our relationship isn’t that good anyway, I really won’t spend my money on you."

"You ungrateful wretch, forgetting your auntie before you even get rich," Mei Yifan said angrily, but what did she have to be mad about? Mei Mengzhen retorted, "How am I ungrateful? Have I eaten your rice or drunk your water? Apart from joining you for the New Year’s meal once, when have I taken anything from you? Besides, you’ve never treated me well. What’s wrong with not acknowledging you? The term ’ungrateful wretch’ doesn’t suit me, but it seems apt for your daughter. You just took her salary, and she’s still upset about it."

Wang Qiuhe was of course angry that Mei Yifan took her salary, but when it mattered, mother and daughter knew to unite against a common enemy, "We’re talking about you now. Why drag me into this?"

"I’m just stating facts. How am I dragging you into this? What’s the matter, you’re allowed to be angry but I can’t speak up?"

Wang Gaofeng interrupted, "Zhenzhen, you’re still a student, and students from prestigious schools do care about their reputation. I suppose you wouldn’t want to ruin your reputation just one year into university, right? Not to mention the Entertainment Circle; if your reputation is destroyed, you won’t be able to mix anywhere."

Upon hearing this, Mei Mengzhen genuinely laughed, "Wow, dear uncle, are you planning to make a scene at my school? Go ahead, I’m not scared of you. However, uncle, when you decide to make trouble for me, you’d better be prepared. Don’t end up stirring trouble without achieving anything and instead get yourself in trouble."

She wasn’t worried about the school at all; she had mentioned it before that the more these people stirred up her background, the more it would get confirmed, and naturally, she’d be seen as more pitiable in everyone else’s eyes. Lai Xixi had already handled the direction of public opinion perfectly, so she didn’t need to worry too much. But since they were picking on her, they should be prepared for her to fight back. When Mei Mengzhen made her move, this couple would lose more than just their reputation.

After all, she could only make trouble at their workplaces; she didn’t have a job at the moment and wouldn’t stay at school for too many years, but these two had to work until retirement. She wanted to see if they would have the face to remain there.

Seeing that Mei Mengzhen couldn’t be intimidated, Wang Gaofeng sneered, "Zhenzhen has really grown up, becoming quite assertive, huh?"

"It’s not that I’ve become assertive; it’s that you never learn your lesson. Do you think I’m easy to bully? Do you think my strength came from nowhere?"

Upon the mention of Mei Mengzhen’s strength, Wang Gaofeng recalled that memory and his face turned quite ugly, clearly feeling threatened.

Seeing that the family of three had gone quiet, Mei Mengzhen spoke coldly, "Live your own lives honestly. We had no real relationship to begin with. Don’t act like you’re my parents, expecting me to support you with money as I grow up. Why should I? Are you adults without children, or children without adults? There’s no such logic in this world. Stop fixing your gaze on me."
