Chapter 137
Chapter 137
Ye Junli looked at this page with great astonishment. He indeed remembered an occasion when Ye Junwen was in high school and the school organized a spring outing. All the gauze and iodine disinfectant they brought were used up. At that time, Ye Junwen said it was used because some students got injured, but now it seems that Junwen had known Zhen Kechuan that early on.
Ye Junli trembled as he turned the pages.
May 3rd, Sunday, Cloudy
I really didn't expect that the same roommates who bullied me yesterday would all die today.
I only called Zhen Kechuan to ask him for help in teaching them a lesson, but I didn't expect them all to die...
May 5th, Tuesday, Sunny
The police suspect that my roommates' deaths are related to me, but they can't find any evidence. Thankfully, I've hidden this diary well, otherwise...
This card is really useful though, Zhen Kechuan is so powerful. From now on, I'll never have to fear being bullied again!
October 18th, Monday, Light Rain
Haha! I guessed it right, Mengmeng is really not from the Ye family's bloodline. We have no blood relation!
December 25th, Saturday, Sunny
Today is Christmas. I had a pink diamond necklace from the D Family custom-made for Mengmeng. When I take control of the Ye family in the future, I'll put it on Mengmeng's neck with my own hands.
...
The following pages all contained Ye Junwen's plans on how to eliminate Ye Jinchen and take over the Ye family, as well as his deep affection for Ye Jinmeng.
This was all true!
Ye Junli collapsed onto the bed, the last thread of brotherly affection shattered, left in disarray.
Within just two days, the news that Hai City's top belle, the most doted-upon young princess of the Ye family, Ye Jinmeng, had gone missing, spread far and wide. Although the Ye family concealed Ye Jinmeng's origins, there were still some within their circle who had heard rumors, and they all sighed with pity.
At Hai City No. 1 Aristocratic High School.
"Did you hear? The Ye family's Ye Jinmeng is apparently not their real flesh and blood!"
"Yeah, I heard. My dad was even talking about it with my mom at the dinner table yesterday."
"What's the story? Tell me quickly!"
"Apparently, her birth parents were from some remote mountain village. In order for their daughter to live an aristocratic life, they secretly swapped their child with the Ye family's child!"
"Whoa! That's so disgusting!"
"Tsk tsk tsk! Who would have thought, Ye Jinmeng was actually a cuckoo in the nest, becoming Hai City's top belle while enjoying a carefree aristocratic life, but causing the real young lady to live a life of starvation instead. Shameless!"
"Right? I used to think she was a good person, but now it seems she's just as rotten on the inside as her birth mother. She probably is!"
"What do you mean run away? If you ask me, she definitely wanted to keep leeching off the Ye family, she was probably just kicked out directly!"
"Heh, I can't believe I used to think she was nice. Now it seems she's bound to be as wicked as her birth mother!"
Listening to these idle gossips, Xiao Yuanning, seated at the back row, couldn't hold it in any longer. He stood up and slammed his hand on the desk, roaring, "Shut up! Will you ever stop?!"
Those gossiping were startled, falling silent as they turned towards Xiao Yuanning's direction.
Xiao Yuanning had just transferred to their school a few days ago. Everyone was so excited, and he had always been amiable. This was the first time they saw him lose his temper.
"Justin... Xiao, did we disturb your sleep?" A girl said weakly, "Sorry, we'll keep it down..."
Xiao Yuanning's expression darkened. "I said shut up, didn't you understand?"
"If I hear anyone badmouthing Ye Jinmeng again, don't blame me for being rude!"
With that, he flung his jacket over his shoulder and stormed out through the back door.
The classroom fell into a deathly silence.
The group gossiping looked at each other in bewilderment before scattering back to their seats.
Xiao Yuanning left the school and headed straight home.
Song Jiaxi didn't go to the company today. Seeing her son, who should have been in school, suddenly come home, she was surprised.
"Ningbao, shouldn't you be in class? Why did you come back home?"
Xiao Yuanning's expression was poor as he sat on the sofa, not saying a word.
This behavior only made Song Jiaxi more curious. Her son was usually so adorable, but today he seemed off. Could he have been bullied by his schoolmates?
The thought made her start worrying.
"Son, were you bullied at school? Tell mommy, I'll have your dad stand up for you."
Xiao Yuanning: ...
He looked up at his mother. "Mom, do you know where Mengmeng is right now?"
Xiao Yuanning was truly saddened. He had finally found a girl he liked, but now she was missing, and he didn't know if she was safe or not.
Song Jiaxi didn't expect her son to be worried about this. She sat beside him and patted his head.
"Don't worry, that Mengmeng girl seems to have good fortune. She'll definitely be fine."
They knew about her disappearance too and had provided the Ye family with a few men to help in the search, even though they had only met her once. Both she and Xiao Yongze quite liked that little girl.
Xiao Yuanning clutched the hem of his clothes and lowered his head. "Mom, I heard from my classmates today that Mengmeng isn't from the Ye family. She was kicked out. Does Uncle Ye not want her anymore? Can we find her later and bring her home to raise her?"
After all, he wanted to raise her...
Song Jiaxi laughed and flicked his forehead.
"What are you thinking, child? Your Uncle Ye would never not want Mengmeng. She's such a well-behaved girl, they can't even spoil her enough. How could they chase her away?"
"Besides, even if the Ye family really didn't want Mengmeng, it wouldn't be our turn to raise her. There's still your Brother Shi Ning's family!"
Xiao Yuanning pouted, feeling gloomy.
Why didn't he meet Mengmeng earlier? Then there wouldn't be Shi Ning to worry about! Hmph, unhappy!
Seeing her son's sullen expression, Song Jiaxi couldn't help but pinch his cheeks.
"So, you skipped class just because of this?"
Xiao Yuanning recalled the words spoken by those few classmates, and his face immediately darkened. If there were so many idle gossips in just one class, what about the entire school?
"Mom, I don't like this school at all. It's horrible. They're talking bad about Sister Mengmeng, but she's such a wonderful person. Yet these people who don't even know the truth are spreading rumors about her!"
"Mom, I don't want to go to school anymore, or at least switch to another school. Being around these people who do nothing but gossip and chat idly, I won't be able to control the primordial forces within me, and I might end up beating them up."
He said this while swinging his fists a few times.
Song Jiaxi was amused by her son's antics, letting out a chuckle. She sighed, "All right, we'll wait for your father to come home from work, and let him sort this out for you."
