Chapter 278 - 275: Drawing Water with a Bamboo Basket, All in Vain
Having connections in the government office makes things easier. For this bid, Mengyao has put in a lot of effort and doesn’t want to lose the opportunity just like that. With the help of Zhang Lu and Shen Tingting, she believes it will be twice the result with half the effort. That’s also why, when faced with a roadblock, they dared to openly attack the police and hijack the police car without too much concern.
"The president sure has a strong influence." Zhang Jing’s heart was pounding as she looked at Shen Tingting and Zhang Lu, still not having calmed down from the earlier excitement. The scene before her was astonishing.
At this moment, Meng Hao walked over with a smile, "Mengyao, you finally arrived. To delay the bidding time, I’ve been working hard. Miss Shen and Officer Zhang can vouch for me. I genuinely wish to compete with you fairly."
Mengyao glanced at Zhang Lu and Shen Tingting and saw from their expressions that Meng Hao wasn’t just making small talk, but it was genuinely true. However, she didn’t care and asked with interest, "I heard that the people who blocked us were all servants of the Meng Family. Is that true?"
Meng Hao’s face turned awkward, and he said sheepishly, "Mengyao, your information is really up-to-date. Yes, but I don’t know which fool was deceived to do such a stupid thing. Afterward, I will certainly punish the person responsible to vent your anger, Mengyao. You know me; I disdain doing such mean things. Even in bidding, I will win honestly."
"You don’t need to trouble yourself with that; just manage your servants well. That’s more important than anything." Mengyao said with a stern expression.
"Mengyao is absolutely right. You know my feelings. If the two of us could get together, those disobedient servants will then rely on you to help me discipline them." Meng Hao laughed, his face full of smiles.
Mengyao was visibly angry but forced herself to hold it in, not even giving Meng Hao a glance, and looked at Ye Fan and said, "Let’s go."
Watching Mengyao and her group walk away, anger seethed in Meng Hao’s eyes. He cursed in a low voice, "Damn bastard, now I can’t clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River. Mengyao’s attitude towards me will only get worse. It’s all Lu Junwen’s fault for doing such a foolish thing."
