Chapter 319: Are You Looking for Me?
Although Meng Sijia and Meng Chengyu had found out where Lu Cheng lived in the family housing complex, they felt it would be inappropriate to go straight upstairs. So, they found a resident and asked them to go up and call the person down for them.
Besides, Meng Sijia had already learned that Lu Cheng was currently giving a work report and wasn’t home.
Meng Sijia was already a well-known figure at the Group. Plus, the fact that she liked Lu Cheng had been a widely spread rumor, so plenty of the families in the housing complex knew about it.
So when they saw Meng Sijia show up right after Shen Nian’s arrival, they knew instantly there was a good show in store.
This explains why so many people were gathered around when Shen Nian came downstairs.
The person most surprised to see Shen Nian walking down was Meng Chengyu.
’What’s going on? Isn’t this the beauty he tried to hit on before? Why is she coming out of the family housing complex?’
’Don’t tell me this beauty is an employee’s family member?’
’And from the looks of it... could this beauty be the wife of the man his sister likes?’
At this thought, Meng Chengyu’s expression darkened. He was naturally disappointed that such a stunning woman was already taken, especially since the man who had her was the same one his sister liked!
However, as he looked at Shen Nian, a thought suddenly struck Meng Chengyu. His eyes lit up, and he began to smile at her.
Meng Sijia had been staring at the stairwell and saw Shen Nian the moment she started coming down.
Meng Sijia’s reaction wasn’t as exaggerated as her brother’s, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t just as shocked.
’She’d never imagined that Lu Cheng’s wife from the countryside would be this beautiful. And her aura is so refined!’
’And the worst part is, she’s supposed to be from some village, but the clothes she’s wearing are a beautiful style that even I’ve never worn before!’
’This is no village woman. She’s clearly the pampered daughter of a rich family from a big city!’
Even Meng Sijia, who had always prided herself on her own excellence, felt a pang of panic at being outshone.
Just as this panic set in, Shen Nian was already walking toward her.
"Are you looking for me?"
A hush fell over the surrounding onlookers, who had been whispering amongst themselves, as they watched Shen Nian walk toward Meng Sijia.
’Is the main event starting already? We’re not even ready!’
They had originally thought Meng Siyu had come to stir up trouble for Shen Nian, but it was actually Shen Nian who made the first move!
Watching Meng Sijia’s expression change at Shen Nian’s words, the surrounding residents—whatever their previous opinions of Shen Nian—were now filled with admiration and praise.
Most of these residents came from small towns, and they had endured plenty of scorn from the young women in the Arts and Entertainment Department at the Group.
Now, Shen Nian—a representative of the residents, in their eyes—had just made her entrance and already seemed to be outshining the "Flower of the Arts and Entertainment Department." How could they not be astonished?
’The Flower of the Arts and Entertainment Department, who always seemed so high and mighty, doesn’t look like much now!’
Meng Sijia noticed the shift in the onlookers’ gazes and remembered her own stunned reaction when Shen Nian had appeared. A wave of vexation washed over her.
After composing herself, Meng Sijia looked at Shen Nian. ’She’s just from the countryside. So what if she’s a little pretty? In every other aspect, she could never compare to me!’
"That’s right, I was looking for you. So, you’re Lu Cheng’s wife!"
