Chapter 178: Why Are You, a Good-For-Nothing, Afraid of Her?
Shen Meng walked home as snowflakes began to fall. She wore a thick scarf over her head that wrapped snugly around her neck. She was wearing officer boots and caught a snowflake in her hand, watching it melt in her palm. She sighed deeply, not realizing so many days had passed.
In the drifting snow, she just stood there, carrying a unique charm.
Lu Zhenping had been waiting at home for Shen Meng for a while without seeing her. He was about to go out to look for her when he saw her at that moment. The day had been messy, and he felt extremely irritated. But now, seeing Shen Meng, his tumultuous heart suddenly calmed down. As Shen Meng looked back, the two gazed at each other from a distance, their eyes filled with love flickering for a moment.
Lu Zhenping slightly opened his arms, and Shen Meng smiled knowingly, quickly walking to his side. Just as she was about to jump into his embrace, she heard a cry from behind her.
"Elder brother, you must stand up for me. Elder sister-in-law has deceived me out of over seven hundred dollars—over seven hundred! That amount of money took Miaomiao and I, our two families, two to three years to save without eating or drinking. And just like that, she tricked it away. Brother, Miaomiao and I are your own sisters; you can’t just ignore us!"
"Yes, elder brother, elder sister-in-law has really lost her conscience, how could she swindle so much money from elder sister? Staging such a thing during the New Year, it’s like she wants our families to suffer. You have to save us, brother!"
Lu Zhenping: "...."
Shen Meng: "..."
