"…"
In the end, Meng Ying drank the medicine obediently even though she didn't get what she wanted.
If she did not drink it, she would not be able to stay awake long enough to kiss him, let alone sleep with him.
This man was ruthless.
It was a psychological tactic.
He knew exactly what she wanted. Sleeping early wouldn't do her any good.
Meng Ying threw a date into her mouth to suppress the bitter taste. She stared at Mu Yuansheng's calm expression and chewed with all her might.
Just wait, she would definitely sleep with him soon!
Mu Yuansheng didn't look at the woman's expression. He only found it funny when he felt the intense gaze on him.
From Ah Da's description of what she had done, it did not match up to this woman who only wanted to sleep with him.
He seemed to have married a wife who was more precious than he thought.
…
The weekend.
Meng Shiliang called Mu Yuansheng and Meng Ying home for a meal.
Zhang Di personally cooked lunch for them in the afternoon.
Mu Yuansheng and Meng Shiliang were chatting in the living room while Meng Ying stood outside the courtyard watching Meng Yuan play soccer.
Meng Yuan was a handsome little eight-year-old.
Meng Ying remembered that he had handed her a piece of cake on his birthday.
She didn't have much interaction with her half-brother, but in her memory, he treated her quite well.
"Sister." Meng Xin walked out and stood beside her. "You seem to be looking well recently."
Meng Ying touched her face. "Really?"
"Yeah." Meng Xin turned around and looked at the handsome man with outstanding temperament in the living room. How awesome would it be if such a man was hers?
Meng Xin's gaze landed on Meng Ying's flushed face. Ever since she removed her makeup, she looked prettier as time went by.
She did not look stupid anymore.
Meng Shiliang had always loved Meng Ying. That day, Meng Shiliang even announced that the entire Meng Enterprise belonged to Meng Ying. Why was he giving everything to a fool? Why did he marry this fool off to such an outstanding man?
She was also a daughter of the Meng family. Why was she only allowed to work in the company as an employee?
Meng Shiliang was too biased. Back then, when he brought her back, he had always emphasized that he would treat her like his own daughter. In reality, she was just Meng Ying's toy.
Meng Xin looked at Meng Yuan, who was not far away, and the demon in her heart crawled out again.
"Sister, look! Little Yuan is already eight years old. He has good grades and is smart. In the future, Father will definitely give the inheritance to his only son."
Meng Xin continued. "We are daughters. A married daughter is like spilled water, and our children will not be surnamed Meng. In the future, Meng Yuan will have the final say in this family."
"Sister, it seems like Brother-in-law isn't that rich either. Now that Dad is still alive, he will dote on you and even give you money to spend. However, if Dad is gone and Little Yuan takes over the business, I'm afraid he won't care about us two sisters anymore."
Meng Ying listened attentively. Her eyes were clear and she didn't seem to understand what she was implying.
Meng Xin cursed inwardly at her for being a fool before continuing, "The Meng family is yours to begin with. I'm fine with not getting anything since I'm adopted. However, Little Yuan is Mom's son. They have stolen what originally belonged to you. In the future, it would be hard for you to buy or wear whatever you want or use money however you pleased."
Meng Ying tilted her head and asked, "What should I do then?"
"Dad had bought a toy gun for Little Yuan in the past. You didn't like the gun although he loved it, so you smashed it with a rock. After that, that toy gun never appeared at home again."
