Chapter 754 Plans can't keep up with changes.
Meng Family East Building Living Room
Qin Shuyu looked at Meng Huaiyu, who was about to explode in anger and almost smashed the teacup, and a trace of worry for her daughter Meng Jie appeared in her eyes.
They also received an anonymous message from an unknown number.
They said their daughter, Meng Jie, gave up the financial management course they had arranged for her a few years ago, secretly returned to China, and has been working at the Mo Group for several years.
They also used extremely offensive language to insult their daughter, Meng Jie, accusing her of being shameless and seducing Mo Erhao, the vice president of the Mo Group, into going to a hotel room to sleep with him.
The moment Qin Shuyu saw the message, her heart skipped a beat.
She knew all too well what her husband, Meng Huaiyu, expected from their daughter.
I hope she can study abroad, learn business management, and then return to join the Meng family's banking conglomerate as a vice president to help the third branch of the Meng family rise to prominence.
This is an expectation ingrained in her husband Meng Huaiyu's very being.
He wouldn't allow his daughter to resist.
Several years ago, the daughter and husband had a big fight over this, and their relationship froze.
For the past few years, she has lived in constant fear, worried that her daughter and husband would continue their cold war.
The assistant Qi Jiu, whom her husband sent to monitor their daughter, kept reporting that their daughter was studying well abroad and had never given up on her studies.
So neither her husband nor she went abroad to investigate.
Who knew that my daughter had returned to China a few years ago and joined the Mo's Group.
And now this huge scandal has occurred.
"Go, bring Qi Jiu to me."
Meng Huaiyu ultimately did not lose his temper and smash the teacup.
But those eyes held complex emotions that Qin Shuyu couldn't understand.
Chen Kang, the butler who had been waiting nearby, didn't dare to speak when he heard Meng Huaiyu's instructions. He quietly left to call Qi Jiu.
"Honey, maybe this is all a malicious attempt to slander Xiaojie behind her back? We haven't investigated anything, are we really going to just believe a message from a stranger?"
Qin Shuyu's intention was simply to remind her husband that one should not blindly believe everything others say.
You should still trust your daughter.
Meng Huaiyu remained silent, only giving her a sharp look.
Qin Shuyu felt uneasy.
She couldn't figure out what her husband was thinking at that moment.
"Third Master, Qi Jiu is here."
"Also, someone posted a secretly filmed video online. Please take a look."
The butler, Chen Kang, entered with a girl who appeared to be his assistant.
The phone in his hand was also handed over.
Meng Huaiyu took the phone from Chen Kang and stared blankly at the video that was enough to calm him down.
Qi Jiu stood to the side, her eyes lowered, not daring to utter a sound.
"Qi Jiu! How many years have you been taking care of the young lady?"
After watching the video, Meng Huaiyu suddenly asked a question.
His tone wasn't exactly angry, but it wasn't joyful either.
“I…I’ve been taking care of Miss for almost ten years.”
"I'm sorry, Third Master. It's all because I'm too soft-hearted. I didn't obey your orders, hit the young lady, and helped her keep her return to the country a secret. Please punish me!"
Qi Jiu knelt down in front of Meng Huaiyu with a "thump".
She was an orphan girl rescued from human traffickers by Third Master. With Meng Huaiyu's support, she completed her studies and was also taught martial arts and taekwondo so that she could protect Miss Meng Jie.
She and the young lady had a harmonious and deep relationship.
So when she was abroad, the young lady begged her to keep her return to China a secret, and she agreed out of kindness. She stayed abroad and helped the young lady pass on false information to Meng Huaiyu.
Until a few days ago, she also sneaked back.
"Go to the bodyguard base and accept your punishment. I'll deal with your matter later."
"I'm sorry, Third Master, I'm willing to accept the punishment."
Qi Jiu stood up and quietly left the living room.
"Kang, is everything in the video real?"
Meng Huaiyu asked the steward.
"Third Master, this was secretly released by a reporter on the scene, and it's 90% authentic."
Butler Chen Kang glanced at Third Master's expression before replying.
"Great! With the First Madam of the Mo family backing up Jie'er, I'm not afraid of anyone deliberately harming her in secret."
One sentence left both Qin Shuyu and Chen Kang completely astonished.
They looked on in disbelief.
Shouldn't Meng Huaiyu be furious and lose his temper?
Qin Shuyu and the housekeeper exchanged a glance, their faces filled with surprise.
"What's with those expressions? Have you seen a ghost?"
Meng Huaiyu looked at the two of them, seemingly even more surprised than they were.
"Isn't it just like seeing a ghost? When has Third Master ever been so easy to talk to? Especially since it concerns the young lady's reputation."
The butler grumbled inwardly.
He had also secretly watched the video.
It was a scene where the young lady and the young master of the Mo family came out of the hotel and were surrounded by reporters who asked them some unpleasant questions. Then, the eldest daughter of the Mo family angrily confronted the reporters and tried to save face for the young lady.
He thought that if the Third Master saw this, he would be furious and fly into a rage.
Unexpectedly, his reaction was so calm that it was hard to understand.
Qin Shuyu thought the same thing.
"Honey, aren't you angry?"
After hesitating for a few minutes, Qin Shuyu finally asked the question.
"Why should I be angry? I raised Jie'er so that she could stand at the highest point of power in the future and not be at the mercy of others. Now she has achieved her goal in another way, so why should I be angry?"
"You mean, you agreed to let her be with the young master of the Mo family?"
“That’s right. I’ve met Mo Erhao before. He’s shrewd and capable. At such a young age, he’s already making waves in the business world of Country C. He’s incredibly capable. Moreover, he comes from an impressive family. He’s the son of the Mo family, one of the top wealthy families in Country C. What could I possibly be dissatisfied with? Jie’er has found us a great son-in-law!”
"Besides, Si Ze is his brother-in-law. With the Meng family and the Mo family as our double insurance, why would we be afraid that Jie'er will be bullied in the future and won't be able to live a good life?"
Meng Huaiyu's eyes were filled with joy that his daughter had found a safe haven for her.
"That's good! That's good! I was afraid you'd get angry and, in your rage, break up your daughter and Mo Erhao."
Qin Shuyu listened to her husband's words, touched her chest which was pounding with nervousness and worry, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Butler Chen Kang also wore a relieved expression.
It's good that Third Master isn't angry!
The young lady was spared a violent storm.
Chen Kang had raised the young lady, so naturally he didn't want her to be severely punished.
"Chen Kang, investigate carefully the source of that text message that sowed discord and insulted my daughter. Find the person who tried to harm my Jie'er. You know what to do."
"Yes, Third Master, I'll go investigate right away. I'd like to use our undercover agents to investigate, is that alright, Third Master?"
"Fine, find her. I, Meng Huaiyu, won't let her off easily."
"Yes, Third Master, I'll do it as soon as possible."
After Chen Kang finished speaking, he turned and left the living room.
Mohist Old House
Xu Zhiyi's Bedroom
Xu Zhiyi was stunned when she saw the message Mo Erchen sent her, telling her that Mo Erhao had confessed his feelings to Meng Jie and they were together.
Before she could even put her plan into action, the young couple were already together.
"Sigh! Plans can't keep up with changes!"
Xu Zhiyi sighed deeply.
