Chapter 666: Chapter 666: Thoughtful (2/2)
Mei Mengchen hugged her neck and cried even more miserably. Mei Mengzhen was unwilling to let her brother just cry silently in his room. She carried Mei Mengchen out, facing him towards the three unmoving figures standing in the living room—Mei Yifan’s family. She wanted these three people to know how much their words had hurt Chenchen.
Of course, these three weren’t going to feel guilty about making Chenchen cry, but she wanted to show them how sad their brother was because of them.
The only thing she received in return was their faces filled with disgust. Seeing their contempt, Mei Mengzhen said directly, "The way you all are disgusted by Chenchen right now, that’s how disgusted I am with you three. You truly deserve each other, a family that’s thoroughly revolting. I’ll make this clear: as for the money, I won’t give you a single cent. No matter how much you make a scene or where you do it, while you’re at it, please remember one thing. I am no longer the Mei Mengzhen from Xincheng. Think twice when you bully me, because you will definitely face the same consequences."
A child’s threats were surely ineffective against these three, but given the situation, even the usually quiet Qi Yongwang couldn’t keep silent anymore, "Enough is enough. Is there nothing in your eyes besides money? Can’t you earn it yourselves?"
Mei Mengcheng chimed in sarcastically, "If they could earn it, they wouldn’t be eyeing someone else’s. In the end, it’s just their own incompetence."
Hearing this, Wang Gaofeng became furious, the children’s comments felt like a slap to his face. "What are you implying?"
"What can they imply? Does the Jiang Family know? Jiang Cheng is still locked up in there. If you don’t want to go in, then all of you better behave and stop wandering around in front of us," Fan Tianyu felt that only solid examples could really intimidate people. Mere lip service couldn’t achieve that—it was neither here nor there, and even he wouldn’t listen to it.
Having already been interrupted several times from the start, Fan Tianhua immediately echoed once he got the chance to speak, needing to say something substantial and useful. "How long will that grandson of the Jiang Family be locked up for?"
Fan Tianyu smiled, "Although the final verdict isn’t out yet, I heard from Pei Ge that it’ll start from a minimum of two years."
The family of Mei Yifan had heard about the trouble with Jiang Cheng of the Jiang Family, but what did that have to do with them?
While the three were confused, they saw the expression on Mei Mengzhen’s face and instantly connected it to Jiang Cheng. The couple shuddered, feeling it was unlikely, "You’re full of it. How could you possibly have the power to lock someone up? Do you even dare to provoke the Jiang Family?"
At this moment, Mei Mengzhen truly laughed, "You don’t know me at all. You might not be aware of the matter, but how could your Qiuhe not know? Just try and target Chenchen if you dare."
Mei Mengzhen wasn’t afraid of these three people; she was truly fearless, without a shred of apprehension.
But the trio weren’t fools, "We’re just asking for custody, why would that require someone to be locked up? Stop bluffing us, we’re not fools."
"Of course, you’re not fools. But you’re after Chenchen for the money, which amounts to fraud!" Whether it was fraud or not, Mei Mengzhen didn’t know; anyway, these three also didn’t understand, so she just wanted to scare them.
Hearing Mei Mengzhen’s firm tone, Wang Gaofeng stepped forward several paces, whether he intended to hit someone or what, but that aggressive posture was not allowed even by the adults at home, "Wang Gaofeng, what do you think you’re doing? Unable to get your hands on the money, you now think of hitting someone? But you should look closer; is that your money? If you dare lay a finger on her, then don’t blame us for not being polite."
Wang Gaofeng, understanding the principle of being out-numbered, knew that these people might not initiate violence, but they would definitely not stand idly by if Mei Mengzhen were attacked. Not to say anything about others, Fan Tianyu for sure wouldn’t allow it.
With things escalating to this point, Mei Yongan turned towards Mei Yifan with a helpless cry, "Yifan." But even after calling out her name, Mei Yongan didn’t know what to say and just let out a sigh, "Ah."
Then it was Mei Yifang’s turn; she opened her mouth and eventually offered a piece of advice, "Yifan, please stop talking about it. Zhenzhen has nothing to do with you. Even if you keep thinking about her, you can’t get to her. If you want money, earn it yourself."
But Mei Yinan didn’t have the patience of these two, hearing Mei Yifang’s polite words but with the other party acting as if they weren’t listening, Mei Yinan was instantly enraged, "That’s enough from you all, parading around with your names and education. Staying in Jiangcheng, you’re just a curse to these kids. I was bewitched by you back then, actually pleading with Zhenzhen to let Qiuhe stay because of you. If I knew this would happen, I would never have agreed to help you. Go back, get back to Xincheng. What’s the point of staying in Jiangcheng? Get lost back to Xincheng."
Hearing that, the family of three from Mei Yifan’s side was unhappy, "Big Sister, Jiangcheng isn’t yours; why should we leave just because you say so? We’d rather not. We’ll stay right here."
"Stay if you want to. Jiangcheng may not be ours, but this house is. I forbid you to stay here any longer. Get out," roared Fan Tianyu, and he began to shove them towards the door. Mei Yifan panicked, "Tianyu, I’m your aunt. What are you doing? Big Sister, Big Sister, are you just going to let your Tianyu bully me? For the sake of those orphaned siblings, you’re even neglecting your own sister."
"I couldn’t care less! You think I’m not mad just because I haven’t grabbed a knife? Get out, Tianyu is doing great. All of you, out!"
With Mei Yinan’s support, Fan Tianyu became even less hesitant to drive them away. However, as easy as it was for them to come, it wasn’t so simple to get them to leave, "Hold on, Qiuhe’s belongings are still inside. She needs to enroll in school. You found her a school; are you just going to abandon her like that?"
Fan Tianhua said sarcastically, "What? Now you want us to help her with school enrollment and possibly pay her tuition fees later? You won’t even hope that after your kid graduates, we’ll help find a job, will you? Dreams don’t work that way. What crazy thoughts are you having all day long?"
Fan Tianyu added, "If I knew you were like this, I never would have helped fulfill that enrollment wish. Poor Zhenzhen wasted her kindness on a bunch of ingrates."
Seeing that Mei Yinan had no intention of intervening, Mei Yifan thought it wasn’t looking good and quickly changed her strategy, pleading urgently, "Stop pushing! At least let me pack Qiuhe’s things. Are you also going to swallow our little belongings? Let us in first."
