Disliked by everyone? She is clearly the most beloved one in the rich family!

There are always some people who envy the wealth and power of their host family, but they don’t think about who gave them everything.

Greedy people are like snakes trying to swallow elephants, and sooner or later they will suffer the consequences.

Meng Qiming took great pains to come to today's family dinner. Originally, he had given up the idea after Lao Wu told him last time. Everyone had witnessed Meng Yingnian's methods back then, so there was no need to get himself involved in the end.

But since he met Yu Zhi again at the last annual meeting, he has been thinking about her so much since he returned, and the more he thinks about her, the more he can't let her go.

Today, I saw Yu Zhi and Meng Yingnian appear together, and I was so angry.

It was obvious that he was the one who fell in love with Yu Zhi first, but Meng Yingnian used his power to bully him, which made him feel really aggrieved.

After all, he is an elder. Meng Yingnian directly snatched his people away and threatened him. He couldn't swallow this, and he was even more reluctant to part with the beautiful Yu Zhi.

Meng Qiming's eyes kept following Yu Zhi. The more he looked, the more unwilling he became, and he drank glass after glass of wine.

He finally got the chance.

Yu Zhi stood up and planned to go to the bathroom. He had eaten before coming here and had no appetite. He had just toasted Meng Yuanshan with two glasses of water at the table, and he was thirsty so he drank a few more glasses of water.

Meng Yingnian originally wanted to go with him, but someone else came closer and he couldn't leave for the time being, so he just told Yu Zhi to go first.

Yu Zhi said that she would go and asked him to sit down and relax.

When Yu Zhigang came out of the toilet cubicle and saw Meng Qiming at the door, he was startled and took a step back.

If he hadn't eaten dinner too early and had already digested it, he would have vomited it out on the spot.

Because of the incident with Zhao Lian's father, Yu Zhi had already developed a resistance to middle-aged men, and Meng Qiming's disgusting and sticky words twice before.

Yu Zhi felt that he was really a ghost that lingered around. Now he had nothing on hand and his way was blocked, so he could only wait for Meng Yingnian to come find him.

"What do you want to do?" Yu Zhi observed him and looked for a way to avoid him.

Meng Qiming followed them because he was drunk. There were people everywhere outside, so he couldn't do anything even if he wanted to. He just wanted to hug the person and touch him a few times to satisfy his craving.

He forced a smile through his face: "I just want to ask if you have thought it through last time?"

Meng Qiming said this as he moved closer to Yu Zhi.

Yu Zhi pushed him forward to stop him from moving forward. It was not known whether his recent fitness training had worked or Meng Qiming was just a weakling who pushed him away.

Yu Zhi took the opportunity to run to the door, opened the locked door and was about to rush out.

Meng Qiming noticed his movements and hurriedly chased after him.

As soon as Yu Zhi turned the door lock, the door opened.

Yu Zhi ran directly into a warm embrace. When he looked up and saw Meng Yingnian's face, Yu Zhi felt relieved.

Meng Yingnian held Yu Zhi in his arms and looked past him at Meng Qiming behind him.

The look was calm, but Meng Qiming felt a chill for no reason.

"I remember I didn't invite my sixth cousin. What brings you here today?" There was no emotion in Meng Yingnian's voice, but there was a premonition of impending storm.

Although Meng Yingnian could call him "sixth cousin", Meng Qiming did not dare to respond.

He replied dryly, "Mr. Meng, what you said is true. Since it's a family dinner, why do you need to invite us in person?"

Meng Yingnian snorted, "You think highly of yourself."

Meng Yingnian ignored him and lowered his head to comfort Yu Zhi.

"Zhizhi, what's going on?"

Yu Zhi slowly stood up from Meng Yingnian's arms: "He just locked me in the bathroom and tried to get close to me, but I pushed him away. Last time at the group's annual meeting, he even came up to me and said some nonsense."

Meng Yingnian's expression couldn't be any colder: "What did you say?"

Meng Qiming was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and sobered up. However, he felt that it was not right to be frightened like this by a junior, so he forced himself to stand there.

Yu Zhi continued, "He told me to divorce you and then be with him."

It's like a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

Meng Yingnian really didn't expect that everyone was hoping that he and Yu Zhi would divorce. Zhizhi had finally stopped talking about divorce in front of him, but now someone else came to him and asked for divorce.

Also, don't be too easy to guess what Meng Qiming is thinking. This good-for-nothing, lecherous guy locked himself and Yu Zhi in a bathroom. Who knows what dirty things he's thinking about.

Do you think you are dead?

Meng Yingnian felt that he was too kind and should have crushed him from the beginning to prevent him from causing trouble now.

Meng Yingnian laughed in anger: "I didn't expect that my sixth cousin would still be obsessed with my wife."

Meng Qiming knew he couldn't escape, so he just gave it his all.

"Meng Yingnian, I am your elder after all. Besides, I was the one who fell in love with Yu Zhi first. You are right to snatch her away."

"You still call me uncle, but when did Yu Zhi become yours?"

"I advise you to put your mind at ease, but you probably don't have time to think about it. If you have anything to say, go talk to the police."

Meng Yingnian said this and turned away with Yu Zhi.

Meng Qiming didn't understand what Meng Yingnian meant, and was soon kicked out by the hotel security.

That night, Huachuang Group's financial audit department, together with the prosecutor's office and a team of lawyers, compiled the evidence overnight and submitted it directly to the procuratorate early the next morning.

The evidence was irrefutable, and a case was immediately filed, and Meng Qiming was taken into custody. The amount involved was enormous, enough to keep Meng Qiming in jail for life.

Meng Qiming was not given any chance to appeal or return the funds.

After Meng Yingnian and Yu Zhi returned, they found an excuse to take Yu Zhi away early.

After the family dinner, Meng Yingnian explained the situation to Meng Yuanshan and Meng Hengze.

They knew very well that there were some restless people in the branch, but those as rampant as Meng Qiming were still a minority.

They had long known about the dispute between Yu Zhi and Meng Qiming, and Meng Qiming's finding Yu Zhi was just a slap in the face to Meng Yingnian.

Although the father and son are not on good terms with each other on a daily basis, they are both very protective of each other. Even if it were not for Yu Zhi, Meng Hengze would not protect Meng Qiming for Meng Yingnian.

That tiny blood relationship is no match for your own grandson or son.

By the time Meng Qiming's affairs reached the ears of other members of the Meng family, Meng Qiming had already gone in to drink tea.

Rumors also spread about what happened at the family dinner.

This made them all panic-stricken and they lived in fear. They couldn't even have a good New Year, fearing that Meng Yingnian would be unhappy and put them in jail to accompany Meng Qiming.

Especially my fifth cousin, he was the one who brought everyone there for the family dinner. I thought that since half a year had passed, nothing should have happened.

Who knew Meng Qiming would cause such trouble?

In the end, he was exiled from Beijing by Meng Yingnian. He did not dare to complain at all. Compared with spending the rest of his life in prison, leaving Beijing was nothing.

Quickly pack up and leave.

But this is all for later.

Yu Zhi was frightened, and Meng Yingnian felt very guilty. If he had insisted on following Yu Zhi at that time, this would not have happened.

If Meng Qiming had been dealt with at the beginning, this would not have happened.

It was my own negligence.

Meng Yingnian was silent all the way back.

Yu didn't know what he was thinking.

When he got home and walked into his room, Meng Yingnian suddenly said to himself, "Zhizhi, I'm sorry."

Yu Zhi was puzzled: "Why do you want to say sorry?"

Meng Yingnian looked guilty: "It's all my fault that I didn't deal with Meng Qiming earlier, so he dared to run in front of you again. And I should have accompanied you to the bathroom at night, I scared you."

It was the first time that Yu Zhi saw Meng Yingnian with this expression, which should never appear on Meng Yingnian's face.

"This isn't your fault. Didn't you tell me before that it's clearly someone else's fault? Don't take it upon yourself."

"Besides, it was you who rescued me from Meng Qiming in the beginning, and it was you who saved me just now. I should be the one to say thank you, why do you have to say sorry?" Yu Zhi racked his brains to think of words to comfort Meng Yingnian.

Meng Yingnian felt so heartbroken. It was obviously Yu Zhi who was frightened, but now he had to come and comfort him.

He held Yu Zhi tightly in his arms: "I said I would protect you, it's my fault."

Yu Zhihui hugged Meng Yingnian: "But you protected me very well."

Meng Yingnian recalled Yu Zhi saying that Meng Qiming had harassed him during the annual meeting and said, "Why didn't you tell me about what happened at the annual meeting? Didn't I send someone to follow you?"

Yu Zhi said slowly, "I met him in the cafeteria. There were people around at the time. He stopped me and said a few words to me. I turned and left. I asked your assistant to get something for me. He didn't know about this."

Yu Zhi didn't dare tell his assistant that he was going to the bathroom, otherwise if Meng Yingnian blamed him for dereliction of duty, it would be an unprovoked disaster.

Meng Yingnian was still frightened. What if there was no one around, or if he was trapped like today, and he couldn't get there in time?

"Next time, tell me whatever happens."

Yu Zhi nodded: "I know, don't worry."

Before going to bed, Yu Zhi received a message from Huo Yao. The two had not seen each other since their last meeting, and only contacted each other occasionally on WeChat.

Huo Yao: [Yu Zhi, are you free to meet me tomorrow?]

Yu Zhi is free these days, and he doesn't need to take care of anything related to the New Year, nor does he know how to do it.

Yu Zhi: [I have time.]

Huo Yao: [Okay, my partner from the firm will also be coming. You've met him before. His name is Lin An.]

Yu Zhi: [Okay.]

Meng Yingnian and Yu Zhi had already lain down when Yu Zhi's phone rang.

After Yu Zhi put down his phone, Meng Yingnian asked, "Who is it?"

Yu Zhi: "Brother Yao, he asked me to meet him tomorrow."

Meng Yingnian suddenly perked up: "It just so happens that I'm free for the next few days, I'll go with you."

Yu Zhi didn't care: "Okay, I'll tell him."

Yu Zhi picked up his phone and sent another message to Huo Yao.

Yu Zhi: [Brother Yao, Meng Yingnian will come with me tomorrow.]

Huo Yao readily agreed: "No problem. Even if you didn't tell me, I would have gone to see Mr. Meng."

Only then did Meng Yingnian contentedly hold Yu Zhi and sleep.

The next day, Huo Yao sent Yu Zhi the agreed time and place.

Meng Yingnian finally had some time and took Yu Zhi to the gym to exercise for a while in the morning.

Meng Yingnian's fitness movements are smooth and natural, and every part of his body demonstrates his coordination and perfection.

Yu Zhi's movements are no longer as awkward as they were at the beginning, but he can't compare with someone like Meng Yingnian who has been exercising for a long time.

Meng Yingnian didn't have to be as reserved as Deng Yang and could directly guide Yu Zhi's movements.

Perhaps because the previous conversation with Zhou Yang had revealed his inner thoughts, Yu Zhi suddenly didn't know how to get along with Meng Yingnian.

Meng Yingnian's presence was so strong that Yu Zhi felt as if his entire body was enveloped by his aura, and the places on his body that he touched became numb.

Fortunately, it was just a brief touch.

This was not the first time that Yu Zhi had close contact with Meng Yingnian. The two of them slept in the same bed every day, and Meng Yingnian couldn't wait to stick to Yu Zhi.

But some things are better not to think about too much, but once you open your mouth it’s hard not to notice them.

For example, the pleasant soapy scent of Meng Yingnian always made Yu Zhi feel particularly comfortable. When Meng Yingnian approached, his heartbeat could not be controlled, and he subconsciously stared at him...

It turns out that there were already traces of everything.

Seeing Yu Zhi in a daze, Meng Yingnian helped him put down his equipment and asked, "What's wrong? Are you tired?"

Yu Zhi hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to stretch his wrists: "I'm a little tired, I want to rest for a while."

Meng Yingnian poured him a cup of warm water and handed it to him: "Drink some water. It will be a little hard to bear at the beginning. Don't be too stubborn. Take it slow."

Meng Yingnian has a bad stomach, especially in winter, and cannot drink cold water.

I had heard Yu Zhi say that he had gastroenteritis before, so I started taking him to drink warm water.

Gastrointestinal problems are not trivial matters. Meng Yingnian is well aware of the pros and cons of this, so he pays special attention to this aspect, fearing that Yu Zhi will feel uncomfortable somewhere.

Yu Zhi nodded and said "hmm" to indicate that he understood.
