Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract
Chapter 8 Head-on Confrontation
"I told you to change your temper, but you wouldn't. Who can you blame? You're not up to par, so what good is it if someone else does?" Lu Fen scolded lightly. She had helped her son many times, but it was her own fault for not being able to win his heart!
"I..." Li Meili was so aggrieved that she couldn't speak! She had always been gentle and kind to her cousin, obedient to him in every way, and always ready to grant his requests! What else did she need to do to win his heart?
"Aunt, in my opinion, the problem isn't with you. It's Shen Menghan who used tricks. Otherwise, given Uncle's meticulous nature, it's impossible that he didn't leak any information beforehand!" Xu Jingjing flattered. Now that she's married into this family, she wants to win over all the members and consolidate her own position!
"By the way, I heard about what happened yesterday. Is that Shen Menghan your classmate? Guowei, how could you do this to me? You've let a wolf into the house!" Li Meili suddenly turned her wrath on them.
Li Guowei glared at Xu Jingjing; she was just being nosy!
Xu Jingjing touched her nose. Hadn't they already explained this?
"In short, Shen Menghan can never become a daughter-in-law of the Li family! Listen up, all of you, if anyone dares to collude with her, I won't let them off the hook!" Lu Fen warned, she couldn't let anyone ruin her plans!
"Aunt, I know you're the best to me!" Li Meili immediately fawned over Lu Fen. She knew her worth; her aunt wanted to use her to control her cousin, and she would have to listen to her from now on!
She didn't mind at all, because she really, really loved her cousin!
Li Zhicheng and Shen Menghan walked slowly in through the door, hand in hand!
Stepping into such a luxurious place, Shen Menghan was filled with inner turmoil! She had no idea what kind of people she was about to face!
But when she saw Xu Jingjing stabbing at her, she felt like she was being pricked by needles all over her body, and all the hairs on her body stood on end!
How could she forget why she stayed here!
"Xiaohan, keep smiling. Of course, if you can't smile, then don't." Li Zhicheng let go of her hand, and she suddenly felt a sense of loss. Almost at the same time, he put his hand on her shoulder and put his arm around her as they walked together!
Shen Menghan didn't smile; she simply couldn't force a smile! She felt it would be too fake and artificial!
Xu Jingjing's eyes burned with insane jealousy! Why was it that Shen Menghan could always get everything so effortlessly, while she could never get the best no matter how hard she tried?
She thought Li Guowei was enough to satisfy her, until she met Li Zhicheng so close to him that she realized her heart was beating even more joyfully when she saw him!
Anyone, if faced with the choice between Li Guowei and Li Zhicheng, would choose the latter!
Although Li Zhicheng is Li Guowei's uncle, he is actually a year younger than Li Guowei!
When Li Guowei saw Shen Menghan, dressed in designer clothes and exuding a fresh and refined air, arrive hand in hand with Li Zhicheng, he frowned. In truth, Xu Jingjing was neither as beautiful nor as well-behaved and sensible as Shen Menghan. He had betrayed Menghan simply because he had slept with Xu Jingjing for one night, and Xu Jingjing had clung to him relentlessly. After several entanglements, he could no longer live without her body…
Menghan is different. They've been together for so many years, and every time he tries to kiss her, she rejects him outright!
"Mom," Li Zhicheng called out calmly, and then solemnly introduced her again: "This is my wife, Xiaohan. Xiaohan, this is my mother, the one you met last night."
"Mom," Shen Menghan greeted absentmindedly. She was just acting, and she didn't consider herself a qualified actress. She couldn't make the role real. She knew nothing about this person, and she couldn't naturally call her "Mom"!
"Zhicheng, I will not acknowledge this marriage. It's null and void!" Lu Fen showed no mercy, directly undermining Shen Menghan in front of her, hoping to make her back down!
Shen Menghan's indifferent attitude only fueled her anger, but she held back. Her son wouldn't listen to her, and if she acted too forcefully, he might just leave!
Li Guowei most wanted a conflict between the mother and son!
His father and Li Zhicheng shared the same grandmother! And he and Li Zhicheng were only cousins! He was able to live in the Li family villa entirely because of his great-grandmother! She didn't want the family to live separately, so Lu Fen had no choice but to allow them to live together!
This morning, Li Guowei's parents went to the public relations department to try to give the public a satisfactory answer in response to the media's questions and to salvage the Li family's image. Otherwise, she would vent all her anger on them!
His parents were not accomplished anything; in the Li family, their positions were merely nominal.
The power of the Li family was in the hands of Li Zhicheng. Since his father stepped down, he had no interest in the affairs of the Li family and often went out to play.
It is understood that he and Lu Fen have long been separated, and he is now living a single life, enjoying himself and traveling all over the world.
Shen Menghan ignored Lu Fen's words; she had no need to pay attention to the words of someone who was unrelated to her!
She only signed an agreement with Li Zhicheng; she automatically filtered out everyone else!
"I didn't ask for your consent, I just wanted to let you know. Well, I don't think this place is suitable for me to have breakfast. Xiaohan and I will go out to eat."
Li Zhicheng gave Li Guowei and Xu Jingjing a sharp look!
Li Guowei dared not speak; he was terrified of his stern-faced uncle from the inside out!
To make herself noticed, Xu Jingjing smiled and said, "We understand, Uncle."
"I wasn't talking to you!" Li Zhicheng glared at her!
Xu Jingjing was extremely embarrassed, her face turned deathly pale!
Shen Menghan glanced at her sideways. Xu Jingjing had put on exquisite makeup, wore a bright red cheongsam, and was adorned with gold and silver, showing off in a very ostentatious way!
She didn't envy these things. She only agreed to Li Guowei's persistent pursuit because of his unwavering determination!
When Li Zhicheng noticed her looking at Li Guowei, the hand around her shoulder suddenly tightened its grip!
She looked away; at least for now, she should be on his side!
"Zhicheng, you're becoming more and more outrageous! How can just any woman enter our Li family! Your mother simply won't agree. Unless I die, she can forget about being registered in the Li family!" Lu Fen was furious. Looking at her son's expression, it was clear he wouldn't marry anyone but Shen Menghan!
"It's okay, we haven't been on the same household registration for a long time!"
Li Zhicheng's words made Lu Fen faint with anger!
She forgot that, in a moment of impulse, she had already agreed with his father to separate their household registrations, and their son would live with him! At the time, she didn't think it was a problem, but now, after hearing him say it, she realized the seriousness of the situation!
Shen Menghan was completely bewildered. Do rich people all have separate households?
"Zhicheng, you're married? Why don't you bring your wife to meet your grandma? How long are you going to keep this from me?!"
A kind voice rang out at the doorway, and an elderly woman with silver hair walked in, supported by a servant.
